Chapter 1088 The Flaws of Samsara

Laughing Melody was instantly dealt a heavy blow.

Zhang Jiale’s Dazzling Hundred Blossoms wasn’t just capable of creating light and shadow to cover his teammates. After Sun Zheping retired, he had to be both the main attacker and cover his teammates, single-handedly carrying Hundred Blossoms forward. Now, with a reliable teammate helping to contain the enemy, Zhang Jiale, focused on attacking, could instantly bring about a wave of considerable output.

No one had expected that Samsara would be torn open right from the start, selling out their healer. Jiang Botao's Wulang hurriedly turned back to rescue, but when watching Samsara's matches, whether it was the audience or the broadcast camera, they couldn't help but search for one person.

Where was Zhou Zekai?

Where was he and his One Autumn Leaf?

Of course, Zhou Zekai was still there, and his One Autumn Leaf had decisively rushed back to prioritize rescuing the healer, which was Samsara's top priority at this time. However, under the eruption of the Hundred Blossoms style, Zhou Zekai's ranged attacks were greatly weakened. He couldn't clearly determine the target's location, and could only shoot based on instinct and awareness. In comparison, Jiang Botao's Wulang was closer, and the Spellblade's skills, whether it was Wave Sword or Wave Formation, had distance and range. Even if he couldn't see the specific target clearly, it was still possible to sweep the skill over.

Just as Wulang turned around, he saw something flickering at the lower edge of his vision. He quickly lowered his angle and saw that a grenade had rolled to his feet.

Jiang Botao quickly made a backflip, and Wulang retreated with the shockwave of the grenade explosion. Then, he heard a series of gunshots, and bullets poured out at him.

Zero Degrees Below Freezing?

When did he run over here?

Jiang Botao was shocked, and a very strange feeling rose in his heart.

He suddenly realized that after Qin Muyun's Zero Degrees Below Freezing fired two shots after the two sides made contact, he had no impression of what he did next. This weak sense of presence shouldn't appear on the stage of the Grand Finals. In this kind of occasion, everyone was desperately trying to perform, and there was still someone just wandering around?

At this time, the one who suddenly appeared to stop him from rescuing the healer was none other than Qin Muyun's Zero Degrees Below Freezing. Jiang Botao didn't even notice when he appeared in such a perfectly timed attack position.

A wave of firepower suppressed Jiang Botao, and then Desert Dust and Dark Forest had abandoned the two characters they had just repaired and rushed towards him. Zhang Jiale's attack was just a prelude, and the subsequent offensive was about to rush up. Tyranny's posture seemed to be to directly take away Samsara's healer in one wave.

How could they let them succeed so easily!

Jiang Botao's Wulang swept out an Earthen Wave Sword, diagonally intercepting the two characters. Desert Dust immediately switched direction and charged straight at Wulang.

Although the Spellblade wore the plate armor with the highest defense, and was a sword-based class, close combat was definitely not its forte. Seeing Desert Dust approaching, he subconsciously wanted to move back two steps, but Desert Dust's charge was just a feint. Seeing Wulang retreating, he immediately seized the opportunity to run past him. Lin Jingyan was not far behind, Dark Forest ran even more smoothly than Desert Dust.

He was tricked!

But Han Wenqing actually played so cunningly. Not only Jiang Botao was tricked, but many people were surprised by Desert Dust's feint, which was not Tyranny's king's usual style.

How much had Tyranny's players sacrificed for this championship?

Zhang Jiale didn't hesitate to bear the infamy, Lin Jingyan completely abandoned the idea and thoughts of being the core, and even Han Wenqing put down his stubborn and unwavering style that had remained unchanged for so many years…

They were all making changes. The only thing that remained unchanged was their champion's heart!

“Charge!!!”

The two grappler classes fearlessly entered the formation, while Zhang Jiale's Dazzling Hundred Blossoms suddenly retreated, the muzzle flashed, and faced Zhou Zekai's One Autumn Leaf. Tyranny's team coordination was well-organized and controlled the rhythm of the field.

Tyranny fought fiercely, but not recklessly.

Such a rapid close-quarters engagement seemed a bit impatient for an away team, but Tyranny's speed was not ordinary speed, it was a speed that reached the extreme. The two sides quickly entered a melee state. What was Samsara's home advantage? It was familiarity and utilization of the map. But at this time, the rapid close combat quickly entered such a battle climax, Samsara had no time to use the map to execute tactics, they could only instinctively react to the moves. This was the importance of taking the initiative, and in this game, Tyranny taught all the teams a lesson on how to quickly and forcefully seize the initiative. No one could do it more thoroughly than this.

4 minutes and 47 seconds into the team competition, the home team's priest Laughing Melody was killed. This was something no one had expected. The role of the healer in a team battle was too crucial and important, it was definitely the core of protection. In the professional circle, attacking the healer was also a very important tactic, but this tactic often only formed a constraint, and rarely was the healer directly taken away in one wave.

As a result, on the highest stage of the Grand Finals, Tyranny did it. Was 4 minutes and 47 seconds a record? It still needed to be sorted out. But Samsara's home stadium was now silent, and all the audience were stunned. Everyone was too clear about what it meant to have the healer taken away. If it was an unimportant game, it would be understandable if the whole team directly gg and quit the game. But this was the Grand Finals, the final stage of a year of hard work, and no one would choose to give up so quickly.

Without the healer, Samsara could be considered lightly armed, at least without a match point that needed to be guarded at all times. The moment Laughing Melody fell, Samsara immediately launched a counterattack climax, and everyone played without restraint, quickly achieving solid results. One member of Tyranny fell, Qin Muyun's Zero Degrees Below Freezing.

But Jiang Botao felt a strange feeling in his heart again.

When Zero Degrees Below Freezing was there, he couldn't feel his existence, but now that he was really gone, he couldn't feel any obvious changes in the situation on the field. This was killing one person! Such a major breakthrough, but he didn't even notice?

This feeling was really too disturbing.

Jiang Botao tried to calm himself down and carefully examine the current situation. They had no healer, so they had to fight quickly, but fighting quickly also needed to be organized. What? They were already on?

Zhou Zekai's One Autumn Leaf had no intention of adjusting his rhythm at this time, and continued to launch a frantic attack, so fast that Jiang Botao felt it was a bit too much. But, in the next second, he no longer thought so. Clearing the situation in front of him, Jiang Botao suddenly discovered that Tyranny had already completed the contraction and took a full defensive position.

The Samsara team needed to be fast, but the Tyranny team just didn't let them be fast. Zhou Zekai had already seen this, so he didn't make any adjustments and continued to increase his speed, trying to disrupt Tyranny's rhythm.

Could he do it? Countless times, Zhou Zekai's charge helped Samsara open up the situation, but this time, facing the four veteran gods of Tyranny's steady defense, Zhou Zekai's charge was still fierce, but he ultimately failed to break the current situation. Zhang Jiale's Hundred Blossoms style was a great interference for the Sharpshooter, which required absolute precision. Charge in close to open up the situation with gun kata? Zhou Zekai had done this before. But right now, Tyranny's formation had Han Wenqing, the number one close combat fighter in Glory, and his Fist Emperor Desert Dust. Using gun kata was not a smart choice at the moment… “The flaws of the Samsara team are exposed…” Ye Xiu, who had been quietly watching the game, suddenly said at this time.

“What?” Chen Guo asked quickly.

“They lack a heavy class that can open up the situation from the front,” Ye Xiu said.

“Uh, aren’t there Lu Boyuan, Wu Qi, and Du Ming?” Chen Guo asked.

“The Grappler class doesn’t have good skills to assist movement, but it needs to be close to the target to exert its combat power. Just moving to get close is enough trouble.”

While Ye Xiu was explaining, Chen Guo watched the game again and found that Lu Boyuan's Cloud Piercer was moving with great difficulty. The Grappler class wore leather armor, and its movement was supposed to be fast, but such ordinary movement in the current situation was too difficult.

“As for the Assassin class, I don’t need to say more, right? This has never been a frontal attacker,” Ye Xiu said.

Wu Qi’s Assassin Cruel Silence looked even more awkward than Cloud Piercer at this time. He was trying to find an opening, but Tyranny didn’t leave him any openings at all, so he looked like he had nothing to do, like he was strolling around while others were fighting.

“As for Du Ming… his strength is still a bit lacking.” The next one finally didn’t have a problem with his class, but there was a problem with the player. Ye Xiu was being polite. If he removed the word “slightly,” it would be just right. Du Ming’s Swordsman looked flustered from the beginning of his movement to get close. After being hit by Lin Jingyan’s brick, Han Wenqing sent him a beating. If he hadn’t escaped well, he probably would have been killed in Tyranny’s formation.

The Tyranny team just played a game of attrition with Samsara in an unhurried manner. The Samsara players’ back-and-forth charges couldn’t shake the foundation of Tyranny’s formation. When Tyranny’s sixth player, Bai Yanfei’s Elementalist Rota, arrived, Tyranny’s formation became even more solid. In the end, Samsara launched a death charge in desperation, trying to win in the chaos. But in the end, Tyranny stood firm, and the final kill score was fixed at 6 to 2. The Tyranny team greatly reversed the loss in the individual competition, taking the first game on the road.

Champion?

Taking the away game first and then fighting the home game, this situation was really advantageous. Even some media reports after the game had already directly awarded the championship to Tyranny. The question mark after the title "Champion" was covered up.

Who knew that three days later, in Tyranny’s home stadium in B City, Samsara overturned Tyranny’s home field with a total score of 11 to 7.
