Create a great era of e-sports.

Although the game is small, it has all the essentials.

Although there are only four teams participating in the Ladder Invitational Tournament, all the various process links before the start of the tournament are included.

First, there was a video to promote the event made by netizens. It may not be as good as the expensive game CG, but it still has a unique flavor. Dozens of heroes appeared one by one, making it quite interesting for the audience in the live broadcast room to watch.

Then came the COSPLAY performance.

It has to be said that having low looks also has advantages.

Although there are not many heroes in DOTA who are humanoid, and most of the heroes are demons, monsters, etc., they are also very handsome.

Puppy, Tide, Phantom Thorn, Juggernaut, Axe, Feng Xing, and Lina. The COS team perfectly performed the charm of the heroes. Wearing the exquisite COS suits, it really feels like the heroes have reappeared.

until the end of the opening.

The host Li Zhen, who is specially trained for DOTA events, took the stage.

Li Zhen is from Taiwan, and has a soft, sweet Taiwanese accent. The moment she opens her mouth, the audience will say "F*ck".

"sweet!"

"It is too sweet!"

"Taiwanese girls really feel what they say!"

"I feel in love~"

The official live broadcast room was full of netizens crying and howling.

It was the first time Li Zhen stepped onto the stage, and she was still a little nervous. Fortunately, the muscle memory brought about by extensive training was solid enough. Not to mention hosting accidents, at least she finished the script very smoothly. Coupled with her Taiwanese accent, It has a unique flavor.

"Thank you to the actors for giving us a wonderful opening ceremony!"

"Next, we invite the four teams from this Ladder Invitational Tournament to appear!"

The Taiwanese girl pointed her finger towards the contestants' tunnel.

The spotlight shone over and a figure stepped out.

The grand song "DOTA" specially composed by a well-known domestic symphony team specially hired for the DOTA event sounded in the arena. Along with the exciting music, players from the four teams appeared one by one.

Cola!

Speeding!

Hot sauce!

Outstanding!

The names are all kinds of weird, but they don't affect the warm atmosphere of the scene.

Twenty contestants wearing various costumes stood in the field and were reviewed by the audience. A newcomer who was standing on the stage for the first time almost couldn't hold it. His body was shaking unconsciously, and he couldn't control his hands and feet. He could only continue. Take deep breaths to calm your agitated mind.

There are also veteran players who have already gotten used to it, and they can perform easily without being affected at all.

"Damn it, it turns out that No. 2 on the Hot Sauce Team is my Bacchus, and No. 1 is Brother A!"

"Doesn't that mean that hot sauce is LGD?"

"I feel stable. The hot sauce team has professional players on the field, and the champion is sure to win."

"So, LGD should be forming a DOTA division. No wonder 09 and ZSMJ have not played recently. It seems that they will switch to DOTA."

"No way?"

"Why not? The newcomers of LGD can play well. To be honest, the competitive level of 09 and ZSMJ is really incomparable."

The barrage is full of discussions.

Two faces that have long been famous in domestic e-sports circles appeared on the DOTA field, and the audience immediately became excited.

It was okay during the online competition before, not many people recognized the two of them, but now that they are in the semi-finals, almost all DOTA viewers who are paying attention to the ladder invitational tournament have gathered together, and ZSMJ and 09 have all been recognized.

Now many people know that LGD is behind the hot sauce.

"Damn, my vest fell off all at once."

Deng Junhua was so angry that he threw down his hands.

He was not worried about the hot sauce team's true identity being recognized, but he was worried that the other three teams had lost their vests. "There's nothing you can do about it. They are all new professionals, so they definitely won't recognize you." Zhang Zhaoyang laughed and joked at the side: "Can you win the championship, Lao Deng? If you lose, it will be embarrassing?"

"At least it's better than the Pineapple team not even making it to the semi-finals, right?"

Deng Junhua showed no sign of weakness.

Zhang Zhaoyang's face suddenly darkened.

Suddenly, several club owners sitting next to the two who came to watch the game started laughing.

The air is filled with joy.

"I'm too lazy to talk to you, let's watch the game!"

Players step down.

The Taiwanese girl smiled sweetly facing the audience.

"The contestant appearance session has ended. I believe the audience at the scene and in front of the screen can't wait to see the game begin."

"First of all, announce the rules for the semi-finals of this ladder invitational tournament."

"Using computer software to randomly draw lots, four teams will compete against each other in a BO5 battle. The winner will advance to the finals to determine the champion!"

"Everyone, please look at the big screen."

A matchup table instantly appeared on the big screen, and the team names in the first blank table kept flashing until the final countdown ended and the names froze.

Outstanding!

The first team has been established, and the next team to compete with the champion has also been locked in - Coke.

There is no need to draw lots for the second game left, and it is directly locked into Feichi vs. Hot Sauce.

If replaced by the names of the professional clubs behind them, it would be IG vs. NB, and EHome vs. LGD.

"Okay, the list of the semi-finals has been determined. Now let's hand over the stage to the players and the game will start right away!"

The Taiwanese girl walked off the stage, and the screen in the live broadcast room jumped to the commentary desk.

"I'm looking forward to it. The semi-finals are about to start." Xiaoxing said with a sigh: "I believe all DOTA players can't wait."

"Yes."

Ams still sat sideways, his long legs clearly exposed: "Let's wait and see who is the strongest team in the national server!"

Game start.

The first game of the championship was against Coke, that is, IG played against NB.

Players from both sides are top players on the national server ladder rankings, and they have met each other in the rankings on weekdays, but this is the first time they have competed for supremacy on the field.

Both sides played relatively conservatively in the first game.

However, this kind of conservatism is relatively speaking. The style of DOTA is destined to cause more frequent fights.

Except for a meat mountain in the entire DOTA map, there are no resource points such as dragons and red and blue buffs. The game's most advocated strategy is to help the team gain advantages through constant strategic operations and lane pulling.

The disadvantaged side is not without any chance of comeback.

There is a team invisibility item in the game that can neither be detected by real eyes nor displayed on the mini-map - the fog of trickery.

When one party is at a disadvantage or wants to capture the opponent's No. 1 brother, they will use fog to find opportunities to complete a single capture.

In the early stages of the game, the most likely places for combat are the rune points located up and down the middle river that refresh randomly every two minutes.

Whichever side's mid laner can grab a good talisman can suppress the opponent's mid laner and even complete a solo kill.

In the first game, the No. 2 position in the middle of the champion team relied on a double talisman they grabbed in the early stage to gain a huge advantage without fattening. They suppressed the line, suppressed the last hit, suppressed GANK, and swept the battlefield with a black bird, completely taking over. competition, and ultimately led the team to victory.

In the second game, the band was full of energy, and through several waves of wonderful cooperation, they tied the score.

Immediately after Guan Jue's next game, Coke fought tenaciously and continued to tie.

The two sides battled to a score of 2 to 2!

The first battle of the semi-finals reached the most intense fifth game! (End of chapter)
