Off-stage.

In the Pro team, Kim Sung-hyun sneered, “That doggy thing is getting serious.”

In 2019, Kim Sung-hyun had returned home and trained with his team for a year. It hadn’t been easy for them to finally make their way into the global competition, but when they’d run into L&P back then, he’d personally experienced the ‘top-jungler linkage’ between Yuan Ze and Gary.

Other people’s top-jungler linkage involved the jungler supporting the top-laner and pushing the top lane to create opportunities, containing the enemy and building up a farming snowball in order to win the game.

That wasn’t the case for L&P.

Their linkage was enough to make the entire canyon tremble!

After all of L&P’s players resurrected, their formation changed.

The commentator was an old expert and noticed it at a glance:

“L&P’s demonic shaman is headed for the top lane!”

“Is Marshal and Gary’s top-jungler linkage about to start?”

“FTW’s really good. They managed to drive L&P to this point!”

Not every team could make L&P start to play seriously. As long as they could win, they wouldn’t necessarily take everything out and show off all their skills.

L&P’s momentum was now totally different from before.

They’d obviously lost four kills, and their farming was behind, but they didn’t seem to be on the losing side at all. Instead, they showed a strong and oppressive aura.

In FTW’s team chat.

Bai Cai: “F*ck, what’s going on with L&P’s marksman?!”

Yue Wenle evaded the skill that came flying over and said, “Brother Cai, shield.”

Bai Cai gave him a shield, and the two of them retreated to their tower to preserve their lives.

Just when they were feeling relieved, two teleportation skills lit up, and L&P’s top-laner and jungler who’d arrived at the same time moved directly towards the tower. The blood warrior didn’t even start up its ultimate move and simply swept its blade directly across. The bloodsucking blade looked like the devil’s teeth as it tore into the frost hunter’s throat.

System announcement: L&P Marshal killed FTW.Le.

Bai Cai was dazed, “I…”

He still had an unused ultimate move, but he hadn’t even been able to send it out before Yue Wenle died.

The holy priest’s ultimate move was a powerful heal. If he used it, he could heal all friendly troops within range.

Yue Wenle was anxious, “Old Bai, run!”

Yuan Ze, who’d killed Yue Wenle, withdrew from the defense tower’s attack range. At the same time, Gary rushed beneath the tower and locked onto Bai Cai with his scythe.

Bai Cai immediately started up his ultimate move and his first and third skill. The three skills were released at the same time, and it was enough to heal a dead person back to life.

However, it was useless.

A berserker thief’s scythe skill could drag the target it had locked onto to their side.

Bai Cai had originally been hiding beneath the tower, but in the next second, he was trapped in a crowd of L&P players.

L&P’s marksman shot at him, lowering his armor and applying a weakened state, casting a shadow over the priest that was covered in a holy light.

Gary’s scythe flew and danced everywhere, each attack drawing blood. Even if Brother Cai had 10,000 mouthfuls of milk, it would still have all been used up.

And at the end… Marshal took away his life with a single attack.

System announcement: L&P.Marshal double kill!

The commentator couldn’t help cheering, “Beautiful!”

Fans in the China competition zone were extremely dissatisfied with this, “Everyone knows that FTW’s bottom lane is easy pickings. If they have the ability, they should go kill the great demon king!”

“Close took a double kill in a 1v2 fight, and Yuan Ze took a double kill in a 3v2 fight. What’s so beautiful about that?”

“If you have the ability, go and fight 1v1 against Close and Quiet!’

“Didn’t God Yuan fight against them at the start? He was beaten like a dog.”

An ordinary player would think that the fight was one-sided, and they only felt that L&P was targeting FTW’s weakness in an unfair fight.

However, they’d ignored the truth.

This was a team game.

It was a game that required tacit cooperation, a team competition where five people combined together created unlimited power!

Yuan Ze and Gary’s top-jungler linkage involved the whole L&P!

Killing Bai Cai and Yue Wenle was only the beginning, but it was a perfect start to a series of chess moves.

Bai Cai and Yue Wenle had both been killed, and Wei Xiao wanted to rush over to the bottom lane.

Lu Feng: “Protect the mid-lane.”

Wei Xiao stopped moving, “Got it.”

The bottom lane was already done for, and the blood warrior, berserker thief and launcher were all heroes that could take down the tower quickly. Even if Wei Xiao went over, he wouldn’t be able to save the tower. Since that was the case, it was better to stabilize Ning Zhehan’s mid-lane.

Commentator A praised, “FTW made the right choice.”

Commentary B agreed, “If Quiet went to the bottom lane, not only would he have been forcibly killed, he also wouldn’t have been able to defend the tower.”

“What would’ve made the move even more fatal is that they would have also lost the middle tower.”

This was a chain reaction caused by L&P’s surprise attack.

They forcibly killed two people and took down the defense tower. If Wei Xiao went to provide support, he would definitely die without a doubt; at the same time, VIVI, who was in the middle lane, could kill Ning Zhehan and gain the mid-lane advantage.

Wei Xiao giving up the bottom lane tower and protecting the middle lane tower was the correct choice. At the very least, VIVI wouldn’t dare to press forward and attack Ning Zhehan.

This choice minimized their losses.

When faced with L&P’s powerful counterattack, FTW had already implemented the optimal solution.

However…

Kim Sung-hyun was expressionless, “Naive.”

He’d been taken down by Old Bandit Yuan’s trick many times, but he still hadn’t found a way to deal with it.

FTW’s optimal solution was actually a helpless move.

After FTW’s bottom lane tower exploded, Yuan Ze and Gary arrived at the middle lane almost instantly.

Wei Xiao’s pupils contracted, “Little Ning!”

But it was too late. Ning Zhehan wasn’t very far ahead, and he wasn’t even outside of the range of his own defense tower, but the blood warrior approached in an instant and stabbed into his body directly anyway.

Ning Zhehan immediately used flash to increase the distance between them.

Wei Xiao: “F*ck!”

He hadn’t had time to remind Ning Zhehan that Gary was waiting in ambush when Gary had already stretched out his scythe and locked onto the spirit mage who’d thrown himself right into the net.

Ning Zhehan: “……”

Wei Xiao: “Use your ultimate!”

In this kind of situation where there was no doubt that he would die, he could only try his best to deal the most DPS he could and create opportunities for his teammates.

But at the end of the day, Ning Zhehan was still short on experience. After being taken by surprise and messed around like this, he panicked.

He managed to use his ultimate move, but the spirit mage required exquisite attention to detail and operation in order to play out the full amount of damage. At this time, the move seemed to have been launched by a child and didn’t even manage to tickle Gary.

System announcement: L&P.Gary killed FTW.Silvery!

At the same time, there was another one: FTW.Close killed L&P.Mo.

Old G killed Ning Zhehan and Lu Feng killed L&P’s support player Mo.

They’d traded a support player for three FTW players.

L&P had really come out ahead in this exchange!

In just a few short minutes, L&P had pulled back from 4:1 to 5:4 and taken down two of FTW’s outer towers. They’d torn down half of FTW’s canyon!

The advantages that FTW had established in the early stages disappeared instantly, and they fell into a disadvantage.

This was L&P’s top-jungler linkage.

This was the power of a united team.

This was the amazing fighting power of a team that was twisted together to form a rope.

L&P’s support remained in the top lane and used the demonic shaman’s powerful control and tower support ability to keep Close occupied.

In the bottom lane, L&P’s marksman suppressed Bai Cai and Yue Wenle all on his own.

Yuan Ze and Gary arrived in time to take down two kills.

In fact, even before the bottom tower had been completely destroyed, the two of them had already made their way to the mid-lane. They killed Ning Zhehan and took down the mid-lane tower.

The entire process was too smooth and coherent.

L&P’s top-jungler linkage had never been limited to only Yuan Ze and Gary, but also involved the entire team. They were just the spearhead!

Tacit understanding, trust, and strong cohesion.

This was the amazing strength that a strong team could show in 5v5 games.

Yuan Ze wasn’t picking on FTW’s weakness.

This was what a team game should be like.

5v5 had never been a fight between lone wolves.

Without cutting off someone’s hands and feet, how could one reach their heart?

L&P gave FTW a very clear lesson.

The five people involved in the team competition weren’t individuals. They were a whole.

There was no single player here. There was only L&P!

The four L&P players all headed to the top lane.

Even Close had no choice but to avoid their sharp edge and retreat to the second tower.

At this time.

All three of FTW’s lanes had collapsed, and none of their outer towers remained.

The advantages they’d gained at the start was like a castle built on a sand foundation, crumbling and collapsing flat under the impact from turbulent waves.

This was L&P, the team that had won the world championship. These were the five people who had defeated countless powerful teams and had once stood at the top.

The halo of glory.

It shone on all five souls!

Off-stage.

Chen Feng was so nervous that he was biting his thumb.

Tang Chen watched him and felt like his eyes were burning, “It’s not a loss for them to lose.”

Chen Feng exhaled lightly, “They’ve already done their best.”

Tang Chen: “Yes, they were excellent!”

They’d been able to push L&P to this point, and they’d been able to make Yuan Ze and Gary play at this level of strength. They were able to experience the rhythm of such a legendary team.

For the FTW team that had just come together, it was already a great harvest!

They were still brand new, and they were still young.

But they had endless potential!

When faced with strong enemies, setbacks, and high mountains.

What FTW needed to do was conquer them!

In this one sided situation, many people believed that FTW’s team chat would definitely be very quiet.

But the truth was…

Wei Xiao: “Old Bandit Yuan was really hiding his ability!”

“That doggy thing was always looking down on us!”

“This is what a real f*cking training match should be like!”

Wei Xiao had only participated in two training matches between FTW and L&P.

When Wei Xiao was about to join the team, he’d played in two training matches in a temporary capacity.

At the time, Yuan Ze had also been very powerful.

But, compared with the current Yuan Ze, the Yuan Ze from before seemed to have been sleepwalking!

There were no feelings of depression within the FTW team, only an eagerness to try. Wei Xiao declared, “We’ll give it a go later!”

The other four members of FTW, Lu Feng included, were stunned for a moment.

Wei Xiao wasn’t only talking to Lu Feng, but to all of his teammates, “This top-jungler linkage, our FTW can do it too.”

Close was definitely no worse than Yuan Ze.

Wei Xiao wasn’t any worse than Gary either.

Ning Zhehan, Bai Cai, and Yue Wenle weren’t any worse than the other three members of L&P.

So, why couldn’t they give it a try?

This was an oppressive rhythm that was like a lane toppling machine. This vigorous team linkage and team cooperation that bowed down to no one.

They could do it too!

It was at this moment, right at this time.

Wei Xiao finally really felt the charm of the team competition.

Unlike a single person solo or the doubles competition that had two people playing side by side, in this 5v5, 10 person battlefield, what was needed was even more powerful team cohesion!

It was fascinating, extremely fascinating.

Bai Cai chuckled and said, “In that case, I’ll have to practice my demonic shaman.”

Just now, during L&P’s charge, their support player Mo had played a vital role.

If the demonic shaman hadn’t kept Close occupied, L&P wouldn’t have been able to play so flashily in the middle and bottom lanes.

Bai Cai’s sentence expressed his support of Wei Xiao’s words.

Ning Zhehan quivered all over. He suppressed the numbness that wanted to spread up his spine and said solemnly, “I’ll also practice assassin mages.”

Yue Wenle spoke in a low voice, “I’ll practice my ability to fight one against two.”

L&P’s marksman’s ability to hold down Bai Cai and Yue Wenle with his own strength had been the key to their breakthrough.

Lu Feng spoke, “We can try it now.”
