These words shocked everyone. Ning Zhehan said, Practice it! Theres still a lot of room for improvement in this line-up!

Yue Wenle: Yes, we have to seize the opportunity. They really didnt have much time.

Chen Feng finally agreed, Alright.

Winning the championship wasnt easy. They had to do everything possible. This soul warlock line-up was a surprise trump card for FTW, and they had to have firm control over it!

Moreover, it was only the first game. Even if they lost, he believed that these cubs would still be able to win three games in a row and defeat IN.

So, let alone the unsuspecting audience, even the FTW coaching team was worried.

Losers were always in the wrong.

These so-called tactics were only worthy of being called tactics if they won!

Come on! Chen Feng had already written out a draft Weibo post. If they lost, then he would carry the blame and not let the fans flame the players.

The players on the stage were quite relaxed.

Wei Xiao was still in the mood to tease Brother Cai, Add oil, jungler king!

Bai Cai:

He was more likely to spill oil!

Bai Cai didnt know what kind of evil hed done in his previous life that resulted in him meeting Little Lunatic Wei in this life.

His salted fish life was drifting away!

This was the life of getting put up on the shelf to work and being torn to pieces by FTWs violent fans if he wasnt able to pull this off.

After taking a deep breath, both sides entered the canyon!

On INs side, they were able to see FTWs line-up during the game loading process.

Their support was stunned, This is their hand slipped?

Mid-laner Otee narrowed his eyes, Using the soul warlock to play jungler?

Their junglers tone wasnt very good. Who are they looking down on!

Their ADC sneered, Are they treating us like were training soldiers? The China competition zone is really crazy this year.

FTW and IN had some grudges between them.

The atmosphere on the foreign side of the internet was messier than it was in China. The competition zones were all mixed together, and there were a huge number of people who just wanted to watch the excitement.

Although Otee had provoked them first, the China competition zone had also fought back hard, making them act even more shamelessly.

Coupled with those who wanted to fish in muddy waters, there were even more people who wanted to see them make a joke out of themselves.

When it came to this game, IN was 100% serious.

In order to win against FTW, theyd take out everything they had. They werent afraid of exposing their tactics, and they wouldnt dare to keep anything hidden. Theyd taken a strong line-up that had over a 90% win rate for the battle of freedom.

They wanted to win, and they had to win.

If they lost, theyd be mocked like dogs when they returned to their competition zone.

There was no way back. Even if the other players from IN objected to Otees stupid behavior, it was already done and they had to go on.

They had to fix their external problems before tidying up internally. This game was one that they had to win!

They were well prepared and in excellent condition. Theyd taken out their guardian line-up for the blind selection in the first game, but unexpectedly, the other side was playing so strangely!

Otee: Dont underestimate the enemy. It might be a trap.

IN was very cautious. Even when everyone in the audience was booing FTW, they didnt make any rash actions.

They played how they should as every game they won was a game gained.

The players from IN had been able to kill their way out of their own competition zone, which meant that they had some level of skill.

Even the directors seemed to prefer FTW. They frequently switched the cameras to FTW and paid attention to what they were doing.

The audience in the live broadcast studio had recovered:

Calm down, calm down, with the great demon king, FTW wont mess around.

Yes, yes, yes, calm down a bit! Just think about the casual player competition from before. Little Lunatic Wei grew even stronger with Captain Yans blessing and was explosively badass.

But the problem is that theres nothing wrong with Captain Yan taking the soul warlock as a support player. Wei Xiao hes the core DPS dealer in the team!

I dont think theres any need to panic. Theres no problem with Closes shadow thief. As long as Brother Cais power thief isnt too crappy, Wei Xiao can attach to both thieves.

Thats reasonable. Use the power thief for control and the shadow thief for damage. FTW has really come up with some ideas!

Let me say quietly, Wei Xiaos immortal warlock and storm hunter are also very powerful.

Holy shit

Holy shit?!

One sentence woke up the dreamers. The fans whod been scared by this line-up finally thought it over.

FTWs line-up had appeared too abruptly. They didnt know much about the soul warlock, and coupled with their inherent prejudice, they hadnt thought in this direction at all.

Now

The commentators had already started discussing it, Will we be able to see a double set of light arcs in this game?

Maybe not only that. Quiets immortal warlock can easily brush out a thousand layers of clouds.

Commentator Sister Qi was more conservative, The soul warlock mechanism limits combos to only 50% of its real effect. It wont be easy to brush out a thousand layers of clouds.

Brother Mouth was also afraid of jinxing Wei Xiao to death. He continued, He can put a hold on such extreme operations, but as long as he can play conventionally, itll still be very valuable.

Sister Qi: The most worrisome thing is mixing up the skills. Ive practiced with the soul warlock after it was released, and theres a whole string of skills after the attachment. It made me dizzy looking at it; also, I can only move where my teammate moves. If its not the positioning that I want, then the skills will miss

The commentators were talking constantly about the difficulty level involved with the soul warlock, which was also a way of giving respect to FTW.

In case they performed poorly or had bad operations and made mistakes, it wouldnt be the players problem. The mechanism for the soul warlock was very difficult, and time was clearly required for the players to familiarize themselves with it.

The audience members hearts felt like it was suspended in the air. They were very afraid of FTW capsizing.

The two sides whod entered the canyon had just started clearing out the jungle and lanes. The audience stands were very quiet, and even the scrolling comments had decreased in frequency. The sisters who were there to ship CPs were quiet, while the haters were building up strength. There were only a few rational fans left analyzing the situation.

INs jungler had rushed into FTWs jungle zone!

The voices of the commentators lifted slightly, and the audience didnt even dare to breathe too loudly.

It was over, it was over. Could Brother Cai deal with it? How was Wei Xiaos soul warlock?

INs jungler was a berserker thief, which was super powerful in the early stages, and the daddy-level support elemental shaman. When these two talents invaded the other sides jungle in the early stages, whoever they fought would die.

Wei Xiao: Theyre here.

Bai Cai sat up as straight as a pen, Mm.

At the moment when the berserker thief appeared, the power thiefs ground stab shot out.

INs jungler wasnt bad. He shifted slightly and avoided it, while the elemental shaman behind him tossed out a control totem at the power thief.

He released a skill that exposed vision. If the power thief got controlled, then FTW would end up in a miserable situation.

In this case, it was usually the support who first oh, FTWs support was now the power thief. But the problem was that the support didnt have any DPS right now!

The audience went crazy again, Its over, its over, its really no good, they were really just messing around for fun!

Theyre done for, theyre done for. I dont dare watch this game anymore ahhhh!

Just when everyone thought that the power thief would get locked in by the elemental shaman and killed by the berserker thief, Bai Cai attacked instead of retreating and stabbed the berserker thief with a long sword.

No vision?

Theyd put in vision a long time ago!

INs jungler was surprised, not having expected that the other sides power thief would be so strong.

The elemental shaman said, Dont be scared, its just a support.

It wasnt that he looked down on supports, but it was because he was a support that he knew that a support players game awareness was very different from that of a DPS player.

Bai Cai had taken the power thief, but he still had the game awareness of a support. This was the same as sending himself up to die.

The berserker thief calmed down. This made sense. When faced with a power thief played by a support, what was there to be afraid of?

INs First Blood was guaranteed!

Bai Cai had gone out with nothing but straw sandals and had very low DPS. He stabbed the berserker thief, but was only able to scrape off a quarter of his health.

But he attacked again, and because he hit him in the side, he was able to land a critical hit!

The audience made a wow sound.

No one had any expectations for Bai Cais power thief, the commentators included.

However, his operation right now had been very detailed, and it wasnt something that could be played out casually.

The scrolling comments were even more surprised. Brother Cais not bad!

Glory obscure knowledge: there are three junglers in FTW!

Wasnt he supposed to be a little wife? Howd he turn out to be so fierce!

Im ready, Im ready, charge, Brother Cai!

The director changed the scene to a close-up of Bai Cai. The thin youth who always liked to laugh had his lips pursed as he stared at the screen. He looked focused and serious.

Old Wei!

Coming. Wei Xiaos careless voice sounded out. A soul blade flew out towards the berserker thief and landed perfectly!

Bai Cai rushed up again, landing another side attack. His angle was very accurate leading to another critical hit!

If there was anyone who had said that Bai Cai was like a blind cat killing a dead mouse on the first hit, then those people were now silenced.

He could play.

Bai Cai really knew how to play the power thief!

The fans screamed as one. Is Brother Cai going to take First Blood?

Is my vegetable rising up!

Dont ask me why I keep rubbing my eyes!

I have to rub them! This isnt a f*cking illusion, right?

IN obviously hadnt expected this support player to play the power thief so well.

This level of micro-operations couldnt be performed by any ordinary casual player.

The berserker thief stopped taking him lightly and wanted to retreat.

The elemental shaman also traded his health in for an acceleration totem in the hopes that the berserker thief could escape.

However, the soul warlock was already lurking in a good position.

There were two kinds of soul blades. One could send the opponent flying, while the other would deal DPS from a distance.

The former was an important control skill, and the second skill, for a support player, was the skill that they tossed out when waiting for other skills to cooldown and deal some DPS.

But

Wei Xiaos soul warlock wasnt a support.

The base DPS value was very low, so hed gone out with a small wooden staff that added over 100 points of spell damage.

The berserker thief whod been beaten into low health by Brother Cai saw the soul blade flying towards him, but he instinctively didnt think too much of it.

The blue soul blade wouldnt send him flying, and based on the soul warlocks damage, it might not break through his defenses at all, so

The elemental shaman: Get away!

But it was too late.

That half a second of hesitation meant that the soul blade had already smashed into the berserker thiefs face.

The skill had hit 100% accurately, and the damage value appeared over the berserker thiefs head291.

The berserker thiefs heart went cold.

System Announcement

First Blood!

FTW.Quiet killed IN.Lewis.

Who wouldve dared to think that FTW could win an advantage and First Blood with such a stupid line-up?!

Fierce applause broke out at the venue, and the scrolling comments were filled with a large stretch of 6666.

Little Lunatic Wei is still your lunatic daddy. He can snatch up kills even with a support talent!

Brother Cai, dont cry, the next kill will be yours!

Oh my, I didnt think that was possible!

The commentators tried hard not to be biased, but how could they not be?

Brother Mouth captured the key point directly. Just now, the berserker thief had 290 health points left. The soul warlocks damage control was amazing.

The soul warlock had a low base DPS. Without the small wooden staff, he wouldve dealt about 190 points of damage, which wasnt enough to kill the berserker thief.

However, Wei Xiao had never been a support. Hed considered himself as a c-position right from when he went out and didnt put on straw sandals or grab a jungler knife. Instead, hed picked up a wooden stick.

Why?

Because he couldnt kill anyone without this wooden stick.

It was likely that the other side would come into their jungle, so he hadnt picked up the jungler knife initially. Since he wouldnt be able to clear his jungle anyway, they might as well fight first!

At this time, a great god dropped into the live broadcast studio.

A real great god, a great god in all aspects.

Money: You may not believe it if I say it, but I was killed by the little lunatic just like this the night before yesterday. These words were followed by a gift of 666 rockets.

When this big god came out he had to display enough of a grand scene.

Although he didnt have any more pocket money, Brother Hui would tighten up his belt in order to help his brother team.

Besides, Money didnt know how to send out scrolling comments in the live broadcast studio without sending out gifts.
