"Can the map be randomized?" Yu Wenzhou asked with a smile.
"Okay, okay." Lu Chen adjusted the settings and clicked to prepare for the match. Meanwhile, the dark clouds over there were also ready. After clicking "OK," the surrounding environment began to change.
This is a map of ruins.
Of course, terrain has little impact on the sharpshooter class, and Lu Chen doesn't really care what the map is like.
"Xiao Chen, you need to be careful this time." Su Muqiu's somewhat solemn voice rang out.
"Hmm?" Lu Chen gave a soft "hmm".
[Although Soksar rarely plays in individual matches due to Yu Wenzhou's personal issues, this also means that whenever Yu Wenzhou plays, there's a more than 90% chance of winning.] Su Muqiu said seriously: [Especially on more complex maps like these, once you see the opponent, don't give them a chance, just charge in.]
Yu Wenzhou, captain of the Blue Rain team, one of the four tacticians in the professional league, the golden combination of Blue Rain team, and a top-tier player.
Generally speaking, the top players in the league have a hand speed of over 300, while 200 is just the benchmark for youth training camps. However, Yu Wenzhou has managed to break into the top tier by relying on his strong tactical ability and this hand speed that is close to "clumsy" among professional players. This is enough to show how strong Yu Wenzhou is.
Lu Chen took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and the moment the countdown ended, he quickly charged towards the opponent's half of the court with his "Raise a Cup to Invite the Moon" skill.
As long as he can see his opponent, Lu Chen is confident that he can prevent him from using any skills.
But—where is the opponent?
In the Blue Rain training room, Huang Shaotian watched Yu Wenzhou's match intently with a serious expression, while Yu Wenzhou remained relaxed, methodically operating his warlock account.
He could naturally hear the gunshot from "Raising a Cup to Invite the Moon," but Yu Wenzhou did not rush out. Instead, he listened to the sound while pondering something, occasionally pulling out the mini-map to check.
"It seems he's learned a lot from Ye Qiu; he has the perfect scouting approach for ranged classes." Yu Wenzhou smiled, seemingly talking to Huang Shaotian, but also as if to himself: "He doesn't seem like a player who's only been playing for a short time, but rather a professional player with a youth training foundation—"
"This guy's skills are also amazing, and his learning ability is very strong. He didn't have this kind of thinking when we played against each other last time." Huang Shaotian narrowed his eyes.
"However, I still lack match experience. No, I should say I don't have enough experience playing against ranged classes. I haven't fully internalized what I've learned—or rather, I haven't fully adapted yet."
Dark Clouds waited quietly there, their staff already shrouded in dark clouds. The moment the Dark Clouds spell was completed, they flung it away. At the same time, Dark Clouds rolled out in one direction, and as they rose, a green spell was cast upon Ju Bei Yao Yue.
[Exhaustion] reduces attack power.
And — Corruption, which reduces magic resistance!
this?!
Lu Chen was slightly surprised. Had his opponent completely figured out his attack pattern? He hadn't seen the warlock anywhere nearby, but Yu Wenzhou seemed to have anticipated his location and started raining down chaos spells on him.
The sudden chaos of the keyboard keys caught Lu Chen off guard. His superb hand speed had become muscle memory, and his subconscious actions were very fast, but in the midst of the chaotic rain, this was not a good thing.
The opponent cast spells on him one after another. They were right there, but Lu Chen felt helpless.
Just like anticipating the enemy's moves, Yu Wenzhou can always make judgments one step ahead of others and suppress his own position in advance.
Lu Chen had previously heard Ye Xiu and Chen Guo joke that, for his skill level, hand speed was no longer a constant standard. If Ye Xiu were to play against Chen Guo's Chasing Smoke and Clouds, a hand speed of around 60 would be sufficient.
And now, the statement that hand speed is not a measure of a player's skill has been proven once again.
Even though I felt my hand speed was faster than my opponent's, I simply didn't have any room to maneuver.
-
Frustrated — This was the most frustrating match Lu Chen had ever experienced since he started playing Glory.
In the end, Jubei Yaoyue's last bit of health was taken away by the black shadow flames, and a gray "defeat" appeared on Lu Chen's screen.
"Xiao Chen?" Tang Rou looked at Lu Chen, who was frowning slightly, with some concern.
"Huh? I'm fine—I just feel—" Lu Chen shook his head repeatedly and said with a smile.
"Feeling frustrated?" Tang Rou was about to say that she wanted to avenge Xiao Chen and fight the Dark Clouds when Ye Xiu sat down with a smile and asked. He had actually been watching from the back since the start of the match, but he didn't want to disturb them, so he only spoke up after it was over. What Lu Chen needed most right now was to face off against all sorts of professional players: "You're not so discouraged by just one match, are you, Lu?"
"No, that won't happen again." Lu Chen smiled and squeezed his girlfriend's hand. "If you've been burned once, you won't do it again next time—"
Lu Chen was quite confident about the gaming talent MA in his skill list.
Gaming talent isn't about cramming all the relevant information into your head; it requires a learning process. The reason Lu Chen lost so frustratingly was simply because he had never encountered an opponent who relied solely on tactical thinking.
Furthermore, Lu Chen still has a lot to learn in terms of map understanding and other aspects.
Although they haven't started reviewing the game yet, Lu Chen has already gained quite a bit from this match.
"It was just luck. If it were the arena, three rounds would probably have already been played," Yu Wenzhou said with a smile.
You're back now that you're done with work?
"I just got back and saw you bullying our Xiao Lu. Shall we have a match?" Ye Xiu asked with a smile, and Lord Grim immediately clicked to prepare for the match.
"Okay," Yu Wenzhou said with a smile. In fact, this was one of his goals for today, and he had already achieved his first goal.
Today, the main focus is on the long-lost art of the free-roaming class, and the unique weapon for free-roaming characters that has never been seen before or since.
Yu Wenzhou was quite curious about all of these things.
"Then don't expect me to hold back. You should know how ruthless I am on the field," Ye Xiu said with a smile.
The map is selected as [Arena].
