The Failed Knight of Full-Time Master

But now the Samsara team’s momentum is gone.

Even Jiang Botao had begun to feel hopeless about the future of the Samsara Team.

Originally, the Samsara team was planning to recreate the glory of the eighth season this season and get back their championship.

Originally, Jiang Botao thought that his only opponent was the Happy Team led by Ye Xiu.

But after losing to Thunder in the regular season, Jiang Botao realized that his opponents seemed to be far more than just the Happy Team.

But at that time Jiang Botao was just comforting himself that the Samsara team did not give their full strength at the beginning because of the long season.

By the time the playoffs come, once the Samsara team has finished their running-in, they will be able to return to their peak.

In the regular season, the Samsara team finally got the second place.

Thunder, who had previously defeated Samsara, was only fourth.

Judging from the results, Thunder's performance is worse than Samsara's.

Therefore, Jiang Botao felt a little more at ease.

And just like that, it’s the playoffs.

After the Thunder Team defeated the Tiny Herb Team with great difficulty in the game, Jiang Botao did not expect that the Thunder Team would become the stopping point for the Samsara Team.

It was so difficult for Thunder to defeat Vici Gaming, so it would probably be the same against Samsara.

As long as the players on the Samsara side adjust their conditions, there will be no problem.

As a result, the first round was directly beaten by 11 to 6.

It is quite normal that the players of Team Samsara find it difficult to accept.

All Jiang Botao could do was to do his best and leave the rest to fate.

Jiang Botao glanced at Zhou Zekai who was sitting opposite him.

At this time, Zhou Zekai was still moving his wrist in order to adjust back to his condition before the team competition began.

Zhou Zekai also noticed Jiang Botao's gaze.

So, facing Jiang Botao's gaze, Zhou Zekai nodded.

But nothing was said.

Afterwards, Jiang Botao looked at the Samsara players in front of him who were all silent, and could only bite the bullet and explain the tactics.

The map for this game is a city map.

The reason for choosing this map is very obvious.

That is, Jiang Botao hopes that the Samsara Team can use this map to limit the performance of the Thunder Team's long-range professions.

After all, in the entire Thunder team, Xiao Shiqin, Chu Yunxiu, Dai Yanqi, and Lu Yining are all ranged professions.

In this city map full of small paths, it would be impossible for the Thunder Team to adopt their previous tactics.

Now the Thunder team can either send out new players like Zhang Qi, or bite the bullet and use the previous lineup.

It can be said that Jiang Botao has done everything he could in today's game.

After the break, Li Yibo, Pan Lin and Bai Shu returned to the commentary desk.

"Welcome back. Next up is the team match between the two teams. The current score is 16 to 10, and the total score is to . The Thunder team is currently in the lead. In this match, the Samsara team must defeat the opponent without losing a single player in order to drag the game into overtime."

Pan Lin also talked about the format of the competition.

"That's right. The current competition situation is extremely harsh for the Samsara team."

Bai Shu also said this.

"Let's wait and see whether Team Samsara can turn the tide and drag the game into overtime."

After Li Yibo finished speaking.

Players from both the Thunder and Samsara teams also stepped onto the competition stage.

It was also captured by the cameras in the players' channels on both sides.

The first to appear on the screen was the Thunder Team's side.

"Play well, get a point, and get off work right away!"

Xiao Shiqin spoke to the Thunder players.

Then he took the lead and extended a hand.

"Come!"

After Xiao Shiqin finished speaking, An Ning was the first to put her hand on the back of Xiao Shiqin's hand.

Afterwards, Chu Yunxiu, Dai Yanqi, Fang Xuecai and others also put their hands on top.

“1, 2, 3, come on!”

After several people shouted together, they also walked onto the competition stage.

"The morale of the Thunder Team is very high."

Pan Lin said.

"After all, just like they said, as long as the Thunder team gets one point in this game, they will advance directly and it will be their turn to 'go home'."

Li Yibo next to him echoed.

After the Thunder team walked onto the stage, the view switched to the Samsara team.

"What do you mean? Come on?"

Seeing that Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao had no intention of extending a hand, Sun Xiang was the first to extend a hand.

"Ah."

Zhou Zekai nodded, then placed his hand on the back of Sun Xiang's hand.

“No regrets.”

After Jiang Botao said this, he also placed his hand on it.

"come on!"

Fang Minghua also said this.

Afterwards, several people waved their hands and shouted "Come on" to cheer themselves up.

Originally, everyone in the Samsara team was very pessimistic about this game.

Before the game started, everyone was dejected and fearful of the team competition.

But at this moment, after shouting this sentence.

The unbearable itch in my heart seemed to disappear in an instant.

Shouting "Come on!" seems to really give me more energy.

No longer afraid.

Before the members of the Samsara Team took their seats, Jiang Botao spoke again.

"In this battle, we need to encircle them... and defeat them using their best tactics, the web-weaving tactic!"

In the end, Jiang Botao decided to change his previous strategy.

After thinking for a long time, I decided to use the web-weaving tactic.

In this map, many tactics are not very effective, but the web-weaving tactic is indeed feasible.

If the opponent is allowed to move, the silver light on the peaceful screen will become a big problem.

If you want to restrict An Ning, you will have to sacrifice a main player or choose to let two players defend him.

But in this case, the pressure on the remaining players of the Samsara Team will be magnified.

After all, there is more than just An Ning in the Thunder team.

In addition to An Ning, Chu Yunxiu and Xiao Shiqin are also opponents that cannot be ignored.

So, after thinking it over again and again, Jiang Botao chose the web-weaving tactics that An Ning used in the ninth season to improve the Thunder Team's tolerance rate.

For the current Samsara team, the most important thing compared to offense and defense is to avoid making mistakes.

Therefore, the Samsara Team cannot take any risks in this battle.

A net-weaving tactic like this, which uses player position switching to create a situation where more people are fighting against fewer, is naturally the best choice.

"Ah."

Zhou Zekai also nodded.

"Everyone, try harder. Even if we lose, we can't let the other side win easily!"

Jiang Botao said as he looked at the contestants of Samsara.

"Yes!"

The remaining players of Samsara also responded.

Afterwards, the players of Team Samsara sat in front of their respective computers, arranged the mouse and keyboard in front of them, and logged into their accounts.

"Both players enter the map, and the game officially begins!" As Pan Lin's voice fell, the players on both sides also entered the game map.

"Lao Fang and I will go alone, and you guys go to the center of the map in a group."

An Ning also spoke directly in the channel.

"Okay, be careful, and call us anytime if you need anything."

Xiao Shiqin also gave a warning.

"Ok!"

After An Ning finished speaking, she took the lead in controlling the character and started moving.

On the other side, Fang Xuecai moved in another direction.

In this game, Fang Xuecai not only had to cooperate with An Ning to complete the kill, but also had to find out the opponent's position and decide who to choose to take action.

It can be said that Fang Xuecai has a heavy task on his shoulders.

"The players on Team Samsara chose to disperse, while Team Thunder split into two teams."

Pan Lin was explaining.

"However, it is a bit dangerous for Thunder to do this. If they are surrounded by the Samsara team, they will lose two people directly."

Li Yibo also said.

"But if An Ning can cooperate with Fang Xuecai to launch a life-threatening attack to kill the enemy... then the game will be over immediately."

On the other hand, Bai Shu expressed the opposite opinion.

After the Thunder Team chose to let Fang Xuecai play, Bai Shu knew that the Thunder Team would most likely have to rely on assassins to win this game.

As time passed, the three commentators on the stage also figured out what tactics the Samsara team wanted to use.

"Web-weaving tactics... really interesting."

Li Yibo also shook his head helplessly.

Although the web-weaving tactic appeared very early, it was An Ning who really made the most of it.

Whether in the previous Misty Rain or in the Thunder period when Xiao Shiqin had not returned, An Ning relied on this tactic to defeat many strong teams.

It can be said that he has written his name into the web-weaving tactics.

Nowadays, when talking about the web-weaving tactics, everyone will think of An Ning.

Just like when mentioning the two tactics of Flying Spear and Screen Cannon, one would think of Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng.

"Using the web-weaving tactic to deal with the Thunder where An Ning is, most people don't have the courage to do so."

Pan Lin also said this.

"We have come to a point of no return. What is there to be afraid of?"

Bai Shu's words also surprised Pan Lin and Li Yibo.

Then both of them nodded in agreement.

really……

The Samsara team is about to be eliminated, so what is there to be afraid of?

Just as both sides began to move towards the center of the map, Xiao Shiqin, who sent out the mechanical beast to explore the way, was the first to send out a message.

"652, 345, Zhou Zekai!"

News about Xiao Shiqin appeared in the eyes of An Ning and Fang Xuecai.

"Roger that!"

An Ning replied immediately, then changed his perspective and moved towards the coordinate position first.

"Lao Fang, follow me!"

Then, An Ning spoke again on the channel.

"Don't worry, I will cooperate with you."

Fang Xuecai had already calmed down and started to move forward.

After sending this message, Xiao Shiqin looked at his various mechanical beasts.

"Let's just make the situation... even more chaotic."

Xiao Shiqin thought to himself, and then ordered the hunter to rush towards one person.

"Sheng Lingmie took the lead and targeted Sun Xiang's One Autumn Leaf!"

The moment the hunter appeared, Sun Xiang noticed it and took action immediately.

The spear directly pierced the hunter, and then lifted him up into the air.

As the hunter fell, Sun Xiang used a falling flower palm.

It hit the hunter directly and destroyed it.

"The other side has discovered my location!"

Sun Xiang also immediately reported the location in the channel.

"Go help One Autumn Leaf first! Prepare to weave a web near One Autumn Leaf!"

Jiang Botao also directly ordered the remaining players of the Samsara Team to move towards Sun Xiang's location, preparing to close the net.

"That's enough."

Xiao Shiqin was also thinking this when he saw his hunter being destroyed.

If you want to make your opponent relax, it is useless to just wait.

The best way is to use another thing to attract the other person and distract him/her.

Before this, Xiao Shiqin had to be very careful to find Zhou Zekai's location.

Having made such a good start, Xiao Shiqin naturally wanted to ensure that the plan was more perfect.

So when An Ning and Fang Xuecai began to move towards Zhou Zekai's location, Xiao Shiqin also directly ordered the mechanical beasts in other directions to move forward rashly, and finally discovered Sun Xiang's One Autumn Leaf.

"I just attacked Sun Xiang. The opponent may move towards Sun Xiang's position. Please pay attention."

After saying that, Xiao Shiqin also sent the coordinates of the hunter's location when he attacked Sun Xiang just now.

"Roger that!"

After seeing the message, An Ning paused for two seconds, and then typed out Zhou Zekai's location after recalculating it in the channel.

"Lao Fang, go this way!"

An Ning said in the channel.

After An Ning and Fang Xuecai had started chasing, Xiao Shiqin also adjusted his perspective and saw Yue Luo Xing Chen and Luan Lu Yin Chen behind him.

"Cooperate with them later and use the blizzard!"

Xiao Shiqin said to Chu Yunxiu and Dai Yanqi.

That’s right, in this game, the Thunder team put the priest in the sixth man position.

"The Samsara team has fallen into a trap..."

There was a hint of reluctance in Li Yibo's tone.

In this game, the map chosen by the Samsara team, the tactics they adopted, and even Jiang Botao's command were actually quite good.

But unfortunately, the Thunder Team, the opposite team of the Samsara Team, was better prepared than Jiang Botao in every aspect.

Especially in terms of tactics, they were completely crushed by the Thunder Team.

"Why haven't the other side rushed over yet?"

Sun Xiang looked at the alleyway where the hunter was rushing towards, and was confused for a moment.

"Or I'll go in and explore the way."

So, Sun Xiang asked in the channel.

"Don't move, wait for us to come over."

Jiang Botao also immediately rejected Sun Xiang's opinion.

The opponent is the Thunder Team.

Moreover, Jiang Botao heard that the other side had a tactic called "Anglerfish Tactics".

Although the specific operation has not yet been determined, it can be seen from the name that this tactic must rely on luring the opponent into a trap to be implemented.

The current Samsara team does not dare and cannot take such a risk.

Therefore, Jiang Botao rejected Sun Xiang's proposal.

It’s not that Jiang Botao thinks Sun Xiang’s strength and status are not enough, but he is simply a little worried.

Not to mention Sun Xiang, even if Zhou Zekai, the captain of the Samsara Team, chose to go in and find out what was going on, Jiang Botao would not agree.

No matter who comes, it will be useless. (End of this chapter)
