In the semi-finals, PS played against Secret. We were very excited after winning the VP, and the victory over Wings Secret was no less impressive. Although the duo of AME and I dominated Midone and MP in terms of media opinion, as of yesterday

The emergence of a late historic moment made today's game look quite gunpowder.

After Abed was eliminated and returned to China, he reached 10,000 points on the Southeast Asian ladder and became the world's first DOTA 2 player with 10,000 points. What was dramatic was that Midone also reached 10,000 points not long after, and the Tribulation Game was exactly the same as mine.

On one side, he chose the ultimate fire cat, and I played a purple cat in position three. In the end, the two cats combined and successfully won the game.

When I reached 9,000 points, Midone also became the second Mr. 20,000 points.

However, the two extreme gentlemen were not very harmonious, and started a verbal dispute online.

Midone: "If my teammates can line up on the opposite side, I can beat the second place player by a thousand points."

Abed: "Shut up, Midone relies on The One to score points." (Yesterday Midone and I lined up three teammates in a row.)

Taking advantage of the fans' rhythm to gain popularity, Midone directly posted something like "Who is he?" I'm not too sure about the details, because he deleted it immediately after posting it, but some fans who watched the fun took screenshots.

@ me directly.

On the day of the semi-finals, professional players have breakfast time around twelve o'clock.

"What do you mean, yesterday's battle between two extremely talented people brought you into it." Xi Xie said while scrolling through the posts, a typical person who doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.

I said it was fine: "It's just so so, I don't feel much."

"What a big heart."

Generally speaking, I won't take it to heart as long as it's not a face-turning taunt. After all, we are all in the same circle. Midone deleting it immediately after posting means that he knows that he has spoken and everyone has the upper hand.

Fy shook his phone: "The MVP voting method has come out. Forty percent of online fans voted and 60% of professional commentators voted. Hmm... it seems quite reasonable."

Leather Shoes was stunned: "Wori, isn't that a loss of blood? Can the country go online and vote?"

Fy is also unclear: "It is said that ESL has signed a contract with a certain live broadcast platform, and domestic voting can go there, but...several shareholders of that platform are members of the AX Alliance."

"Okay, so isn't our MVP the best?" Leather Shoes gnawed the hamburger in his hand as if to vent his anger, and then thought about it again, "To be honest, if he wins the championship, the MVP shouldn't be able to run away, right?"

I smiled mysteriously: "That's not necessarily the case."

There are many absurd things in this world, such as professional players who came from time-travel, or the second-place MVP.

…

[Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the semi-finals of ESL Manila Mercedes-Benz!]

The curtain raised, and the team logos of PS and Secret appeared on the screen. The secret was an eye, which seemed to be able to move people's hearts. But we were relatively humble, because we came out for the game, so we just said "PS" in a careless way.

letters. But under these two ordinary letters, lies the strongest lineup of this ESL.

"Come on!" Sunny waved to us, and the dark circles under her eyes were still vaguely visible. She has been sitting on our home page these past few days. Everyone knows the habits of professional players, who like to queue for the ladder in the middle of the night.

As a girl, Qingtian works very hard for her job.

"Let's go, brothers."

Putting on a black team uniform, the five of us appeared one after another, Yang was still the leader, and I was the last one.

There were still a lot of cheers for us at the scene, because TNC had been eliminated. However, the audience still mostly supported Secret, because Secret.Puppy.

Puppy once won the Ti1 championship with the team Navi in ​​11, and won the runner-up in the subsequent Ti2 and Ti3. In terms of record, puppy and his golden partner Dendi are worthy of being the Mount Everest of DOTA2. This also understands why the secret result is not

Top, but the number of fans is not at the bottom.

Without further ado, we simply exchanged a friendly handshake and entered the battle room directly.

In the BP stage, secretly use one hand to directly point out the Fire Cat and ban its poison.

Yang: "Oh? The mid laner Huomao, the master Wanfen is so confident?"

I touched my chin: "Maybe it's four."

He immediately clapped his hands: "That's just right, the fire cat will kill four fools."

I immediately selected the Purple Cat Underlord, a classic two-cat battle in the middle. The Underlord acted as a dead body to protect the formation, and the Fire Cat was okay. The main reason was that the opponent's mid laner might make a fuss about soy sauce if he played it so early, so I chose to play it.

A perfect list of essential oils.

Secretly get Cal Dragonrider again.

"Hey, they don't know how to play mid laner Karl or No. 4 Fire Cat, right?"

These three hands are very confusing, and they are all heroes who can swing in various positions. However, the one chosen is Secret, and their mid laner is Midone. This fire cat must be played by him, because I am playing a purple cat.

This Carl may be afraid that I will choose the fire cat, after all, blowing the fire shield is quite annoying.

There was a lot of talk online last night, and I must not be convinced in my heart.

"Well...what do you think, brothers?"

Brother Wei rarely raised his hand: "I think I can get the Ice Soul Water Man."

I looked at the lineup. The Ice Soul seems to be pretty good, the Dragon Knight is pretty easy to use, the Water Man is pretty good too, and there doesn't seem to be anything that can restrain him in Secret's moves.

The last hand for both parties was to choose secretly first, and we left a soy sauce swing position of four or five.

The secret finally chose the mystery.

Leather Shoes immediately looked at Fy: "Oh, secretly, don't you take our number one Rabik seriously?"

Fy: "Huh."

I decisively took out Rubick in the end.

Radiant (Secret): Dragon Rider (MP), Fire Cat (Midone), Enigma (KheZu), Karl (Pleliedie), Thrall (Puppy).

Night Dire (PS): Water Man (AME), Purple Cat (ONE), Underlord (Yang), Rubick (Fy), Ice Soul (xNova).

Midone played "GL The ONE" at the beginning, and I responded with "GL" to show friendship.

Needless to say, the two cats in the middle lane are basically a 55-open matchup. The advantage lane is Ice Soul Water Keeper, and the off-lane Underlord is paired with Rubick. I looked at the lineup a little, and our team seemed very strong, but in fact we relied heavily on this.

Ice Soul, and it can only be used in one wave. The secret lineup does not have high explosive power, but it can be used to fight and pull, and it has many small skills. If we can't kill people in a second after starting a team, it will be very stiff.

So I thought about the production route of this game at the beginning, which is the magic route of blowing the wind and wisdom. Because the ice soul is there, I won't produce the big ashes.

During the mid lane laning, I could clearly feel that Midone was very confident and had a hot touch. Several times, I used T to dodge the Purple Cat's pulse E while I was taking advantage of my skills to finish the damage.

2 minutes later, I was on the road to recover. I was in half state and rushed to grab the talisman, but the fire cat followed me and snatched away the talisman with the Shadowless Fist. I had quick eyesight and quick hands, and Canyin R sucked the fire cat to interrupt his reply.

In 4 minutes, I doubled the control of the bottom lane. I looked at my experience and found that I was still more than half a level away from reaching level six. Midone’s last hit was about the same as mine.

It seems that if you want to kill him, you have to push the line.

A followed E twice to clear out the ranged soldiers. I still had one soldier left to level up to six. Fire Cat activated level three fire shield to heat the line. I directly activated tower defense and killed the melee soldiers with double hacks, leveling up to six.

T cuts to slow down and R to attract people. I don't rush to use E because it has double 150+ attack, because I can't break the level 3 fire shield.

The fire cat walked around the soldiers. I knew he wanted to get soldiers to level six and then escape, so I held him with a fire shield. The fire cat finally reached level six, and I saw the right time for him to fly away and then slashed the second T, which had a slowing effect.

Let his soul crawl to the ground very slowly. At the same time, my second residual Yin, who is the main R and deputy E, is healed again.

R sucked, and Midone without fire shield was taken away by my last mango + bottle + pulse, killing alone.

Leather Shoes smiled: "Have you been so arrogant lately? Kill me alone."

"What do you mean when you hit the road?"

"My big ass, brother is making trouble, this dragon rider can't play with it."

"Can."

I have an advantage in the bottom and mid lane. I looked at the top lane and it was okay. The development of Waterman is okay, but the level is a bit low. After all, the opponent in the lane is a mystery.

Level 3.

12 minutes.

The underlord, who was playing well, sent a signal in the bottom lane: "I challenge, come and take care of the bottom tower?"

I controlled the phase, bottle, and magic wand to accelerate: "Okay, here I come."

xNova's Ice Soul eats up the experience book and goes up to six levels, Fy's Rabbi Krawan is leaning down, and AME's waterman is playing alone.

Secret is very smart. Knowing that we are strong now, he immediately switches to other lanes. The dragon knight transforms into a dragon and cooperates with the fire cat to force the tower. Enigma, Karl, and Thrall take over.

Looking at the split lane push tower on the opposite side, I wanted to kill first: "Can I fight on the top lane? I have acceleration, so I can just stay here."

"Okay, then I will fly directly." The leather-shoe underlord drove up directly. After landing, I accelerated to keep Thrall's mystery, and cooperated with my teammates to take him away one after another. Karl walked away to escape.

Our middle tower is destroyed.

The secret of not having key equipment in the early stage has always been to avoid fighting. After all, the big ass is too fat and it is difficult to kill if it is in front.

At 21 minutes, xNova’s jungle ward saw the secret fog, Dragon Cavalry jumping knife, and Fire Cat’s Ashes Blade Armor. At the same time, I had the wisdom light blowing, and the AME Water Man also came out to the Void Spirit. We discussed and prepared to take it.

group.

Yang: "You'd better be careful when moving. If too many people are attracted by the mystery, it won't be easy even with Rubick."

The Underlord was at the front, so we turned on the fog and headed up.

The dragon knight jumped and fainted, the fire cat picked up the big ashes, and Thrall directly gave the big one. The mystery master came over and stepped on it. Before I could press the blow, I was instantly killed by one set.

I clicked on the status of buying live: "I have bought it, watch and fight, and leave if you can."
