Chapter 204 Position Selection Expert

The individual competition ended, and unexpectedly, Xingxin had taken three points. This result was a bit surprising. But thinking about it carefully, all three of Xingxin's All-Star players had taken to the field in the individual competition, so it didn't seem too excessive to take a complete victory. But then again, the players that Team Tyranny sent out for the individual competition weren't weak soldiers either. Lin Jingyan and Zhang Jiale were also high-end players at the All-Star level.

In the end, Lin Jingyan only flashed with a round of positioning, and Zhang Jiale was simply crushed. On the other hand, the newcomer Song Qiying, who was making his first appearance, performed steadily against the master of the despicable flow, Fang Rui. In that match, it wouldn't have been surprising if he had taken the final victory.

With not even one point gained, the Tyranny fans were somewhat discouraged. Everyone could almost foresee how the media commentary after the match would discuss Tyranny, especially Lin Jingyan and Zhang Jiale. Some irresponsible guys would probably seize the opportunity to discuss the question of whether they were old or not. These guys would definitely completely ignore that the one who defeated Zhang Jiale, Ye Xiu, was also a veteran.

After a short break from the individual competition, the team arena competition was about to begin. Because of Tang Rou's oath, the team arena competition had gained some extra attention. Judging from the comments, this oath had caused Tang Rou to receive more attention, but her image had been damaged a lot. People generally still thought that saying she would defeat three opponents in a row within five rounds was too arrogant and boastful, and that using her professional career to make an oath was an irresponsible act. Glory was not a solo sport, and Tang Rou had a team by her side. Everyone could see that this rookie's weight in this team was still quite heavy, so even some Xingxin fans couldn't stand her imprudent oath.

But no matter what, the matter was already settled. In the team arena competition, Tang Rou was sent out as the first person to play, and the next two players to appear were Mo Fan and Baozi.

A completely new combination, while Tyranny's first to battle was the helper beside their four Heavenly Kings in the team competition, Qin Muyun, Sharpshooter character Zero Degrees Celsius; the second to appear was Bai Yanfei, pro Elementalist Rota, and the last to take the field was none other than Tyranny's only captain in ten seasons, Han Wenqing.

Tang Rou wanting to defeat three opponents in a row meant that she needed to defeat these three opponents in a row.

Many people didn't know what kind of mentality to watch this match with.

Truly achieving a one-versus-three, fulfilling Tang Rou's arrogance and conceit, was infuriating just thinking about it.

But if she failed to achieve a one-versus-three and withdrew in a sorry state, everyone would be happy to see it, but what would they do if Xingxin lost a fierce general because of it?

This kind of entanglement made everyone even more annoyed by Tang Rou's impulsive action.

The match was about to begin. Although Tyranny's fans were very disappointed that they hadn't scored a single point in the individual competition, everyone was still actively cheering for the players in the team arena competition. What about Xingxin's side? The situation was overwhelmingly advantageous, but seeing Tang Rou appear on the stage, the atmosphere in the arena became very cold, and the cheers of encouragement were sparse.

Chen Guo was very worried. She realized that after this incident, Tang Rou's image would probably suffer a lot of damage, regardless of whether she could achieve this one-versus-three or not. Compared to the second round when she sparked the entire arena by defeating two opponents in a row, now, Tang Rou had already made the entire arena cold the moment she stepped onto the stage.

"Sigh, why did it have to turn out like this..." Chen Guo sighed. If she could go back to that day, she would definitely stop Tang Rou from attending that day's press conference at all costs.

The countdown started, and after five seconds, the match began.

Tang Rou, who was receiving such and such controversies, didn't change her style at all. As soon as the situation opened up, her character resolutely rushed out.

Should they give her some applause? The audience hesitated, constantly hesitating. Tyranny's fan group, however, became more and more lively as the match progressed, finally reoccupying Xingxin's home field.

This time, Tyranny's fans' efforts didn't disappoint them. Tang Rou, who was aiming for a one-versus-three, fell in the first round of the team arena competition.

Tyranny's fans were happy, of course, and mercilessly sent all kinds of boos, and even many neutral viewers, a part of Xingxin's fans, followed Tyranny and started booing together.

Amidst the boos, Tang Rou left the stage, returned to her seat, and remained silent.

"This Qin Muyun needs to be carefully studied," Ye Xiu said.

"Oh?" Tang Rou looked over.

"Keep up the good work!" Ye Xiu said.

Tang Rou nodded.

Afterwards, Mo Fan, who had been unbanned after a one-match suspension, once again took the field in the team arena competition with his Deception.

Xingxin's fans immediately started cheering them on, in stark contrast to the treatment Tang Rou received when she came on stage. Tang Rou was originally the most popular player in Xingxin besides the few gods...

Chen Guo felt very uncomfortable. She secretly looked at Tang Rou, but saw Tang Rou raising her head, staring unblinkingly at the highlight reel of her match against Qin Muyun that had just ended on the electronic screen, until the screen turned and started transitioning to the next match, Tang Rou's gaze returned to the arena.

Qin Muyun, who defeated Tang Rou, didn't have much health left on his character. Zero Degrees Celsius had 11% health remaining, and was about to enter the red zone.

Against such a low-health opponent, Mo Fan didn't charge straight at him either, still using his usual tactical positioning. Qin Muyun used tactical positioning to start the last match, and he continued to do so in this match. So in the center of the map, no one appeared directly, and they were all quietly observing in hidden places.

On the electronic screen, the main perspectives of the two people were given, so that the audience could know which directions they were observing.

Mo Fan's main perspective was clearly focused on the location of Qin Muyun's Zero Degrees Celsius. Then, he started moving around in a groping manner.

Flanking...

Many viewers were getting impatient. Against an opponent with only 11% health, was it still necessary to flank and ambush? Just rush out, lure him out, chase after him, and finish him off, right?

The audience's opinions obviously couldn't reach Mo Fan's mind, and even if they did, whether he would accept them was a problem.

Mo Fan's technique for flanking was quite outstanding, and he quickly circled around to the previous location of Zero Degrees Celsius. Yes, it was the previous location. Just as he completed this repositioning, Zero Degrees Celsius had already moved, but Mo Fan didn't know.

Deception barely reached an attackable position, but Mo Fan still couldn't find his target.

He circled around to the front based on his deduction. In fact, he couldn't be sure that his opponent was here. Not finding him, whether it was because his previous deduction was wrong or because the other party had just turned away, was something that Mo Fan couldn't determine.

Just as he was thinking about his next step, an attack came from behind Deception.

Qin Muyun moved, but he didn't go far. An important point of his new crouching spot was that he could keep an eye on his previous crouching spot.

This design wasn't in vain. When Mo Fan thought he had made a wasted trip, he didn't know that he had already fallen into Qin Muyun's trap.

In the scope, Deception's head was magnified to the extreme!

Snipe! Headshot! Double damage. The powerful impact also caused Deception's body to become distorted. Zero Degrees Celsius rushed out and launched a fierce attack without hesitation. Deception was immediately caught in a hail of bullets. The Sharpshooter's shooting wasn't as fierce as the Launcher's, and its functions weren't as complete as the Spitfire's. In fact, many of his skills were just strengthening buffs for ordinary shooting attacks.

Rapid Fire, Double Shot, Scatter Shot, and so on. The number of bullets fired in an instant with such diverse shooting methods was definitely the most among the gun-wielding classes.

Deception was in a difficult situation, and this time, Mo Fan didn't insist on escaping the attack and then finding an opportunity to sneak attack again, which was his favorite routine. Mo Fan directly controlled Deception and tried to counterattack.

But if he wanted to counterattack, breaking through Zero Degrees Celsius's blockade was always the first step.

Smoke Clone Technique? Smoke Grenade? Substitute Technique?

The escape skills that he had the opportunity to use, Mo Fan had used them all, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't get rid of him. Zero Degrees Celsius's attack always managed to catch up right after he had just escaped and moved to another position.

"He's suppressed him so tightly?" Fang Rui said in surprise. The veterans of Tyranny didn't perform well today, but these newcomers were giving people surprises one after another.

"His positioning is very good," Su Mucheng said. She was a Launcher and was good at the screen cannon tactic, so she could see at a glance that the key to Qin Muyun's strong suppression of Mo Fan lay in his positioning.

Zero Degrees Celsius's positioning presented everything about Deception under his gun, including all the changes that the ninja's various skills could cause. And his positioning wasn't unchangeable. When Deception's position changed, he would adjust it in time according to the situation, keeping up to maintain this positioning control.

"He's a positioning expert!" Ye Xiu concluded.

Positioning experts were especially suitable for using ranged classes. Ranged classes had a long attack distance, which meant that the area covered by their attacks was wider. What position could a melee class choose? They could only attack the area around them. The positioning of ranged classes was different, and the positions and areas they could control were very different. In match maps, it was rare to choose a flat map with no cover like Ye Xiu did. With various obstacles and barriers, without good positioning, the attack power of ranged classes couldn't be released to the maximum.

Qin Muyun was an expert in this way.

After watching his match against Tang Rou and then watching this match, Ye Xiu could finally completely confirm it.

"Mo Fan's positioning isn't bad either, is it?" Chen Guo said.

"Mo Fan is good at static positioning, which is different from Qin Muyun's dynamic positioning in motion," Ye Xiu said.

"Then this match..."

"If you can see the positions and areas that the opponent's positioning controls, you can make the correct movement judgments. Positioning can't be perfect in the end. There will always be some blind spots that it can't cover. After judging the opponent's positioning and viewing angle, you have to fight for reaction speed. But Qin Muyun's movement adjustment is very fast, so it's probably impossible to break away step by step. You need to do it in one step, and you have to be careful not to let him quickly seize the position and form suppression again," Ye Xiu said.

"Listening to you, this person is simply invincible..." Chen Guo said.

"If you let Mo Fan compete with him in positioning, he'll basically be invincible," Ye Xiu said.

"Then what should we do?" Chen Guo said.

"We need to find a way to restrict and interfere with his movement," Ye Xiu said.
