PAY and KING’s ga officially started. The last spot in the finals would be decided soon and this made the atmosphere of the scene extrely warm.
The mont they entered the BP session, the two official comntators had a heated discussion. Lin Yan didn’t spare too much attention listening to these analyses. He just watched with a serious expression as the two teams chose their lineup one by one.
In terms of tactics, Jing Yuanzhou was willing to co to Lin Yan for advice. He saw that the two sides had finished choosing their lineups and asked in a low voice, “What do you think about the systems on both sides?”
Lin Yan pondered on it and gave a rare frown. “I can’t say… let’s just take a look.”
According to the past situation, Lin Yan usually talked a lot when referencing tactics. Jing Yuanzhou was very surprised to hear such an answer. Still, he didn’t ask any more questions. He turned his attention back to the TV screen.
During the conversation, the first ga had started. AI’s performance was as active as ever. He invaded KING’s jungle right out of the gate and captured the first resources. Then he completely entered the gank rhythm.
Chen Yushen was originally watching the ga carefully when he opened his mouth with so surprise. “AI’s playing habits… they seem to be adjusted?”
Chen Yushen was a jungler and had naturally studied the top jungler. This ti, he quickly and keenly discovered the details.
“Yes, it did change.” Lin Yan glanced at Den on the top lane and pointed out aningfully. “It’s the last year. Perhaps they don’t want to leave any regrets.”
The focus of AI’s jungle play was very clear. He was a protective force firmly protecting the upper half of the map to allow Den to develop thoroughly at the most rapid pace. The first ga ended with PAY taking the lead. The MVP of this ga was given to Den. He was the winner when it ca to output percentage or the damage strength.
Lin Yan looked at it and couldn’t help asking the person next to him, “Tell , if AI chose to play like this against us, what would’ve happened?”
It obviously referred to the situation where the top lane was targeted to death.
Jing Yuanzhou didn’t hear the ridicule in the words. He seriously thought about it and replied objectively, “We wouldn’t lose.”
Lin Yan smiled. “We really wouldn’t lose.”
Having said that, he couldn’t help glancing at the statistics panel again.
This ti, he went back to KING’s selection in the first ga and understood a lot.
In every match, the result of the first ga had a very important impact on the morale of the next ga but it was a BO5 system after all. Sotis a loss in one or two rounds allowed them to see many things clearly and this might not be a bad thing.
In this year’s competition, perhaps they were deliberately hiding their tactical system or wanted to better confuse the opponent but PAY showed great variability the whole ti. Facing a team with a top player like AI, it would be very tough if they couldn’t pinpoint the other person’s entry point.

Lin Yan’s deanor beca a bit more solemn.
The BP process soon ended. The mont he saw KING’s final lineup, Lin Yan knew that Song Cheng had finally arranged for the players to fight back. The mont they entered the ga, KING’s shooter and support duo directly followed the line of soldiers to the top road where Den was located. They changed lanes at the beginning and obviously weren’t prepared to give Den any further developnt opportunities.
As a world-class shooter, An Seungyeob was already a veteran but he had chosen not to retire. Today, he still maintained a near-peak state in the field. Everyone knew that in the KING team, they just needed An Seungyeon to be present and they could give full play to the tactical system arranged by Song Cheng.
In the face of KING’s tactical adjustnt in this round, PAY’s best choice was to directly develop the bottom lane and then find a chance to change lanes again. Surprisingly, AI didn’t hesitate to aim his firepower at An Seungyeob to guard Den’s developnt.
Chen Yushen frowned when he saw it. He couldn’t understand. “Why?”
“PAY, they want to… help clear Den’s na.” Lin Yan gave a low sigh, obviously feeling a bit complicated. “In the previous group stage, PAY lost to KING. In the end, there was the sa number of wins and it was only based on other indicators that PAY could surpass LDF to make it to the quarter-finals. To tell the truth, Den didn’t play well in that ga. Many tis, he didn’t follow the timing of the team. After the ga, there were many sunspots jumping on the Internet.”
Jing Yuanzhou’s eyes fell on the screen, the color a bit dark.
He started in the sa period as Den and had more to say. “Since he entered the league, Den has always used team battle type heroes. Although I am also inclined to the team battle in the late stage, in comparison, the ‘tool man’ Den has done it more thoroughly and for many years. For a professional player, there are indeed few people who are willing to play such a thankless role. Now he is about to retire soon and PAY feels that they owe him.”
His words caused a mont of silence.
They had all seen PAY’s black fans. It was because the star player AI was too bright that it made the veteran Den look even more useless. After missing the championship trophy several tis, their anger was vented on Den. As a result, whenever PAY’s status was ntioned, there were always people ridiculing Den and wondering when he would retire, saying that PAY didn’t win the championship because they didn’t change side-lane players.
In such an environnt, it could be imagined what type of remarks the Internet would make as long as Den made a few mistakes.
Lin Yan heard this and felt that he understood PAY’s tactical decision this ti. If it were him then he would probably make the sa choice. After all, this was Den’s last World Competition. No matter whether it was the young players of PAY or their coach, no one wanted to see their captain leave with bitterness like this. Den had made sacrifices for this team for so many years. No one wanted him to be dubbed the ‘team battle guy’ for his whole life, even if they finally won the World Competition.
In the silence, Jian Ye couldn’t help sniffling. “Fuck! This whole thing is making feel guilty for winning the ga against PAY!”
Jing Yuanzhou lightly told him, “No need. After all, this is e-sports.”
AI tried a few waves of ganks on the top lane and couldn’t gain any advantage from An Seungyeob’s hands. Then once an opportunity was found, they didn’t hesitate to change lanes. However, it didn’t take long for An Seungyeob to follow them to the bottom lane.
Bi Yaohua exclaid, “This is… staring too tightly!”
Chen Yushen murmured, “It’s a bit difficult.”
In this situation where the lanes were changed, AI put too much energy on Den. His overall damage wasn’t able to keep up in the later stage. The last team battle ended and KING won the ga. The score was evened out to 1:1.
In the third ga, PAY’s coaching staff left a trick at hand and didn’t allow the situation of the last ga to repeat itself. Due to the lineup configuration, the top and bottom lanes finally went online smoothly. AI’s rhythm still stayed at the top lane. Perhaps it was due to this suppression in the last round but his gank rhythm was further accelerated.
KING had prepared in advance but they were still inevitably torn apart. PAY won another ga and the score was 2:1. Den was once again the MVP. For AI, the most eye-catching jungler, he willingly beca the ‘support’ and got the most assists in the ga.
It was the fourth ga and PAY’s match point. Song Cheng’s expression was a bit heavy when he ca to the stage and he once again adjusted the deploynt in the BP process.
Once the final lineup entered their eyes, even Lin Yan couldn’t help showing a bit of surprise. He intuitively felt that PAY would find it hard in this ga. Not surprisingly, An Seungyeob completely killed them before the middle stage of the ga was reached.
The combination of AI and Den was perfect but unfortunately, they failed to withstand the firepower output of KING during the canyon team battle. The score was equalized again to 2:2.
The fifth and final ga officially started and the atmosphere of the audience was solemn to the extre. Although he was just watching the match from the lounge, Jian Ye couldn’t help wiping the sweat on his palms a bit nervously. “Fuck, do they have to fight so anxiously?!”
Bi Yaohua sighed. “I’m afraid it depends on which side has the physical strength to resist to the end.”
It was the last round of the BO5. In this tense situation with excessive rhythm, everyone could feel how much pressure had been placed on the players physically and ntally.
An Seungyeob was in good condition but the burden on the shooter had always been greater than other positions. In addition, his age wasn’t much different from Den’s age. At this ti, exhaustion was unavoidable.
However, it had co to this point and no one wanted to back down. In this way, the fifth ga was a competition of perseverance. On PAY’s side, AI obviously didn’t intend to adjust the rhythm at all. He launched a swift offensive the mont the ga started. In contrast, KING chose to wait relatively conservatively.
Nevertheless, the entire process didn’t last long. They knew that the physical strength consumption was high and no one wanted to play this ga to the late stage.
Den had clearly found his touch after the first few gas. His cooperation with AI beca more and more tacit.
Unknowingly, the ga lasted for 30 minutes. He gradually entered the late rhythm and both sides started to actively look for opportunities.
Lin Yan glanced at Den’s current equipnt. He was raised well by AI and he currently had an extrely excellent outfit. It was still a team battle around the canyon boss and fierce fighting lit up the entire river.
The voice of the comntator was very excited. “Den has very high damage at this stage. He chose a very good ti to cut in! KING’s hasn’t opened the team situation yet and one person is already dead! Beautiful, AI on the side stole Pull’s head! Wait… Flm’s position is great! Double kills! One skill actually got a double kill! PAY must send soone to take care of him. If the shooter doesn’t die, I’m afraid he will sweep through the team! Oh my god, Den is also going crazy with the kills. He is almost a super god!”
He instinctively raised his voice as the female voice of the system announced kills one after another. The audience held their breath and could only watch the figures on the field fall down one by one.
In the end, only An Seungyeob and Den remained in the entire canyon. An Seungyeob’s shooter raised his bow and arrow to shoot while Den also pressed his flash the mont the cooldown ended.
[KING.Flm killed PAY.Den!]
[ACE (team extinction)!]
The entire venue was plunged into silence. At the sa ti, the director’s cara was locked in place. On the screen, flas also fell around An Seungyeob’s body.
[PAY.Den killed KING.Flm!]
[ACE (team extinction)!]
The last player fell and the entire canyon was completely silent. Both sides were collectively destroyed!
Jing Yuanzhou’s eyes stayed on his old rival Den for a long ti and he declared in a deep voice, “It’s over…”
As everyone entered the resurrection queue, they could see a line of soldiers quietly pressing to PAY’s base. There was no one to clear the line of soldiers and no one could stop them. PAY’s base crystal was completely shattered and the second team to enter the global finals was officially born—KING!
In the end, sothing like a civil war didn’t happen. The cara zood in and Den could be seen sitting for a long ti without getting up. It wasn’t known what he thought of but he suddenly smiled with a complicated expression.
AI next to him didn’t move. It wasn’t until Den gently patted him on the shoulder that he lifted his head. No one knew what was said but it could be seen that the always unsmiling ‘artificial intelligence’ had slightly red eyes.
The other team mbers were lying against the table and crying bitterly. It was unknown who started it but shouts started to envelop the venue.
“PAY! Den! PAY! Den! PAY…”
With the last flash and figure deeply imprinted in their minds, PAY’s journey in this year’s World Competition and Den’s career ca to an end.
PAY and KING’s ga officially started. The last spot in the finals would be decided soon and this made the atmosphere of the scene extrely warm.
