Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money

Waterdeep, the scene of the first Guardian of the Ruins Invitational Tournament.

Final day.

In the magnificent illusion venue, only the last bases were left on the high ground of both sides.

All the barracks and high ground towers were destroyed.

The time came to 73 minutes and the game was still not over.

But the long game time did not dampen the enthusiasm of the audience.

On the contrary, the more they watched, the more excited they became.

This game is so exciting.

The loser's bracket final, the third game, the Legion of Hell versus the Sons of the Twin Towers, went home.

Whoever wins will advance to the final and face the biggest boss of this tournament, the Deep Dragonborn led by Toto.

In the first game of the loser's group final, the Devils used a similar pushing lineup to push against the Son of the Twin Towers.

Unfortunately, the tactics they practiced temporarily were far less proficient than those developed by the tactical developers, and they lost after a 40-minute battle.

This marked the 15th consecutive victory for the Son of the Twin Towers.

Previously, the Sons of the Twin Towers made it to the loser bracket finals with a score of 2:0, taking an average of 27 minutes without losing a single game.

Discussions on the Internet believe that they have found the absolute version answer and are the team that has played the version answer best.

So much so that before the start of the loser's bracket final, the Twin Towers' odds of winning surpassed the Legion of Hell and came in second place.

When people thought that it would be another 2:0 and the only hope of stopping the Sons of the Twin Towers would be placed on Toto, the Hell Legion responded with a powerful counterattack, igniting all the spectators in the arena.

In the second game, they pulled out their trump cards, which was also the devil masters' final understanding of how to restrain the advancement system.

A rhythm lineup with high burst at a single point.

The heroes selected are all strong in point control and high burst, which gain momentum faster than the advancing lineup. They use continuous small rhythms in the early stage to constantly cause casualties, making it impossible for the sons of the twin towers to form an effective group advancement, forcing the game to be dragged to the late stage, and then using the lineup's own late-stage advantage to end the game.

This style of play requires extremely high strength from the players. They must have a strong ability to set the pace, tacit cooperation, and the ability to respond quickly without any hesitation as soon as the command is given.

And this is exactly what demons have always been like.

Militarized management!
Thus, they completed their first victory against the advancing lineup since the knockout stage.

The most critical point in the system used by the devil is the Flame Mage in the middle lane.

In the early stages, this hero has very strong laning ability and extremely high single-target burst. In the later stages, he can rely on his passive ability of casting spells and stacking attack speed to become a core of physical output.

Lyon was keenly aware of this and showed the highest respect by banning the opponent in the third round.

He doesn’t have that weird strong mentality that he has to play against his opponent’s strongest system.

He is a pragmatist and winning is his only goal.

No matter whether the win is ugly or not, just win.

However, despite disabling the opponent's core hero, the Devil's backup plan still caused them a lot of trouble.

The advancement could never be pushed all the way through, and the advantage created was not enough to completely crush the opponent.

The two sides fought back and forth until more than 70 minutes.

The number of kills was 36:41, a war that never stopped, with an economic gap of nearly 4, but the economic gap at this point in time was just a simple number and did not represent the situation.

Because the equipment slots of heroes are limited, the equipment of the ten heroes present are already full, so even if they have money, there is no place to spend it.

The core heroes of both sides have reached the maximum level, and the support positions are not far from the maximum level.

Everyone knows that the final outcome of this game lies in a team fight that may break out at any time.

"Let's make a bet, Bronzebeard. Who do you think will win? The loser will have to kiss a donkey's ass in public!"

In the commentary booth, the two dwarf commentators also became excited.

"Well, you're the one who suggested it, Wolfgang. You're the one who decided it this time! I bet on the Son of the Twin Towers to win!"

"Are you sure? Their lineup has obviously been lacking in output so far."

Wolfgang was right. Starting from the 40th minute, the Twin Towers lineup could no longer win in a head-on team fight. Whether in terms of output, team control or physique, they were no match for their opponents.

The battle has been fought until now by pushing the line. Several heroes do not walk together at all. They run around the map in elusive ways, constantly pushing the line of troops towards the base of the Hell Legion, causing huge pressure.

Even if the devils kill one enemy on a line, the other line will definitely be brought to the high ground.

"But I always believe in the boys of the Twin Towers. I have been commentating on their games since the first game of the group stage. They can always create miracles!" Bronzebeard shouted loudly, "They will definitely find a way to break the deadlock!"

"Well, I support the Hell Legion. Look, they have obtained the blessing of the fourth generation of Drogo. Now they have resurrection, recovery, and skill refresh. I can't imagine how they can lose."

During the conversation, the Hell Legion quickly killed the epic wild monster Drogo, and after obtaining the drops, they immediately teleported back to clear the line of soldiers.

After dividing the troops and bringing the line to the enemy half, quickly assemble and head straight for the Twin Towers Highland from the middle lane.

"It seems that the Hell Legion is planning to end this game. All heroes have maxed out their equipment, and with Drogo's blessing, plus the lineup advantage, as long as the core players don't rush to the high ground and get loose, this team battle will definitely be won! As a professional commentator, I dare to make this judgment!"

Wolfgang explained passionately.

He and his partner Bronzebeard did not take the neutral commentary route, but each supported one side, pretending to be a "gambler" and using a very emotional commentary style.

This unique style of commentary is loved by those who like it and hated by those who hate it, resulting in the duo receiving mixed reviews on the Internet.

However, battle reports can be deceiving, but battle lines cannot.

The average number of viewers for the games commented by them will be a little higher, whether they are popular games or unimportant games.

Therefore, they gradually became the designated commentators for key games with their unique commentary style.

It really has a great show effect.

Bronzebeard quickly replied, "The game is not over yet. Bill's messenger brought back a holy sword. He wants to give it a try!"

Bill was controlling the Forest Shaman, the "annoying" hero that he used the most, who could summon tree men endlessly.

The Holy Sword is a very unique equipment in the Guardian Ruins. It comes at a high price and has super high attack power. However, as long as the holder dies, the Holy Sword will fall to the ground and can be picked up by other players.

A very radical piece of equipment.

"But what's the use?" Wolfgang said, "He already has two holy swords. For this third one, he not only sold the God of Craftsmen's Storm Ballista, but also didn't keep any to buy back. As a commentator who is very knowledgeable about numbers, I must say that this third holy sword actually reduces his output. He has gone crazy."

Storm Crossbow is a critical strike equipment, and its attack has a chance to deal more than twice the damage.

According to the test of driving wooden stakes, the output expectation of three holy swords is indeed not as high as that of two holy swords plus a crossbow.

Bronzebeard couldn't find an angle to refute for a moment. Although he didn't admit it, he had a hunch that the Son of the Twin Towers might really be doomed.

They started with a series of losses in the group stage, then struggled to make it into the loser group. In the first round, they made it all the way to the final day from the loser group. As a team, they are already legendary enough in this tournament.

It's not shameful to lose to the second seed predicted before the game.

What's more, they won one game, and the final game lasted more than 70 minutes, forcing their opponent into a desperate situation. It's something to be proud of.

"What's going on? Why did the players from the Twin Towers come down from the high ground? Are they going to fight in the wild?"

Bronzebeard suddenly discovered that the Sons of the Twin Towers, who were originally guarding the high ground, walked down the high ground.

If you have your back to the fountain, you still have a slight chance of winning, but if you fight in the wild, you are simply seeking death.

"Haha, it looks like the whole team has lost their minds, or they are just too uncomfortable to hold it in and want to speed up the end of the game!"

"No, that's not right. This is a tactic! Bill flew, and he flew directly to the base of the Hell Legion!"

Bronzebeard exclaimed as he saw Bill controlling the Forest Shaman to use the teleportation skill and teleport directly into the enemy base.

"No, that's impossible. There are no troops in the base. The base is in a protected state. What's the point of him flying over there?"

"That's why he has to carry three holy swords! He can't critically hit buildings, but high attack power is really useful!"

Even if the base is in a protected state and is recovering health quickly, it still cannot withstand the extremely high attack power of the Forest Shaman.

The health bar dropped step by step.

The devils of the Hell Legion also discovered the thief who was stealing the house, and immediately teleported on the spot, wanting to go home. However, in the emergency, a fatal mistake occurred. They did not turn on the magic immunity item to teleport.

At this time, the other members of the Twin Towers, who had been preparing in the wild area for a long time, suddenly appeared in the shadows, and all kinds of control props were frantically handed over to the devil players.

"The transmission was interrupted! They can't go back!" Bronzebeard's voice suddenly rose, so sharp that it didn't even sound like a dwarf's.

In desperation, the Hell Legion could only fight back on the spot.

They are indeed very strong now, and they easily killed the other four Twin Towers Sons heroes who rushed out. It was a beautiful zero-for-four exchange, and the number one position of the Hell Legion got a quad kill.

At the same time as a huge crazy killing prompt special effect appeared on the sky, on the other side, Bill launched the final fatal attack on the base.

"Let us congratulate the Sons of the Twin Towers! They defeated the powerful enemy Hell Legion with a score of 2:1 and advanced to the finals. Waiting for them in the finals is the winner of the winner's bracket, Deepwater Dragonborn."

Bronzebeard jumped up from his chair excitedly.

"At the same time, let's bid farewell to the devil players with applause and thank them for bringing us wonderful games. After an hour's break, the final will officially begin."

Bronzebeard glanced at Wolfgang, who was slumped in the chair beside him.

It can be said that the role was played very immersively.

"So, during this long hour of rest, how about getting a donkey..."

At this time, in the battle room, the players of Twin Towers took off their masks.

"Well fought, friends," Leon said.

The War King grinned, "It's all thanks to the captain's good tactical preparation and command. I really want to see the devils' expressions now."

It was a life-and-death game at home. I was at a disadvantage in the early stages, but the game was dragged to the late stages. I had a big advantage and was about to win, but my home was robbed.

The ultimate long pain.

"Okay, save your energy. If you go over now, you might get beaten. There will be another opponent."

Having said that, he led the team members out of the battle room.

As soon as they opened the door, the overwhelming cheers seemed to weigh down on them.

It's hard for anyone not to be infected by such a scene.

Excitement is the best tonic, relieving their fatigue after three fierce battles.

An hour later, they would have to face the spirited Deepwater Dragonborn.

It would be an unfair fight, but it's the reward the winner of the upper bracket deserves.

Back in the lounge, the logistics team immediately brought some small desserts to help the players recover their strength quickly without eating too much and causing dizziness.

"Captain, do you have any ideas on how to defeat Toto and the others?"

"No, we fight the way we should. We use our own tactics. It's up to them to counter it however they want."

Leon's tone was full of confidence.

In fact, he was not sure about it, but he could only say this so as not to undermine his morale.

During the Red Alert professional period, Toto was their coach, and later he watched a lot of Toto's games.

Leon should be the opponent who knows the strength of this half-elf gaming genius best.

To be honest, with the talents of the members of the Twin Towers, they cannot compete head-on.

But they are a team, and tactics and cooperation are what they rely on for survival.

Lyon had a vague feeling that this invitational tournament might be their only chance to defeat Toto.

Because this was the first competition, no one knew each other's tactics.

When the league is up and running in the future, it will have a dense schedule, frequent matches, and a season lasting several months.

Unless the team is much stronger than other teams and can achieve good results in the league just by playing casually, it is impossible to hide the tactics and bring them out until the invitational tournament at the end of the year.

He must seize this opportunity...

The one-hour break passed slowly.

Time has come to the finals.

A grand performance was taking place on the illusion field to build momentum for the final battle.

Lyon looked at the field, his eyes were not focused on the performance, but were fixed on the trophy.

He wants to get that, it's not about the trophy, it's just about the honor.

Soon, the performance ended. With the host's passionate entrance words and intense music, the players of the two teams entered in pairs according to their positions, with a full sense of fate.

Before this moment came, Leon thought he would be nervous, but when it came, he was unexpectedly calm.

He is in very good condition, and the advantage is that...

Toto and his teammates entered the battle room.

The coach asked, "Boss, how do you play the first game?"

Although the Deepwater Dragonborn have a coach, the real boss of the team is Toto.

Coach, um...

It’s almost like ordering takeout.

"Let's put their strongest lineup out there and see how they fight first." Toto said domineeringly. (End of this chapter)
