All the VSW Club mbers were currently in the club room. Dan was able to co to school this ti and everyone had made it after getting a good night's rest. Ashley was still being bothered by the majority of the school and even had her own fan club that nearly rivalled Dan's.
Thankfully the Fan club worked in the VSW club's favour. The mbers agreed that Ashley was owned by no one and she was her own person. They should all be able to just enjoy Ashley's presence and her incredible fighting skills. The club mbers would often stand outside the VSW club and take it turns to make sure that no one ca inside and harass the team.
More than anything they wanted Ashley to be able to perform her best in the next upcoming match.
Alex had handed out a piece of paper to each of the mbers. It gave them the basic information about Hershal, such as their performance in the last tournant and what their current ranking was for each player in their team.
Alex gave everyone a little ti to read the information before asking his question.
"What do you guy's notice about the information I just handed you?"
"They're all silver Rank." Novis said, "Yet they seem to be able to have beaten every team they co up against in the past, apart from the seeded teams."
"Exactly, Hershal as individuals aren't very strong but their teamwork is. They're a team that focuses on grouping up and covering each other's back."
Alex then went to play the video on the school projector behind him. It showed Hershal's last match that they played, where they won their Ga 5-0.
Before the match had even started Hershal did sothing that was strange compared to most teams. Each player had selected a warrior with a sword and shield. Usually, you would want a balanced team to give you a wide variety of tactics but Hershal was different.
The match started off by showing the two people fighting mid. When the fight was just getting interesting between the two, the player from the opposite team seed to be pushing forward as he was winning the fight. Then suddenly out of nowhere, four players had jumped out of the surrounding forest and defeated the first player.
From there, they quickly pushed down the mid-tower and went onto the second tower down the middle lane near the base. This left the other team no choice but to also group and head down to middle together.
But now the fight was currently 4 vs 5. Making it easy for Hershel to gain the advantage. When a team was down by a player they would often stay by the tower. The tower's firepower had enough strength to make up for the lack of a player. The problem was the range was limited and eventually, a team would be able to move their NPC knight's forward blocking the tower shots.
Not only that but Hershal seed to be a team that took no risks. There were no risky moves and Hershel would only attack when they were sure they wouldn't get hit by the tower. Usually, a team that was winning was more likely to make mistakes as they took the lead but that never happened.
When they fought, they used two different formations. When attacking as a team they ford an arrow-like formation and defending was almost like a turtle. It was impressive to watch as the Hershel team looked almost like a dance group. As they were all so synced up with each other.
Eventually, one of the other team mbers got fed up and tried a risky play, flanking around the back and attacking them. Hershal made quick work of the stray player and it was the end of the match from there.
"What do you think?" Alex said.
"They're kinda like robots?" Ashley replied, "Are all their gas like this?"
"Yes, they always group up and not once do they leave formation."
Scarlett then raised her hand.
"What about the gas they lost, how did they lose?"
"That's a really good question. As Novis pointed out earlier, there is not a single player higher than silver on their team. In truth, all of them on their own are less than average players. A diamond player is able to do sothing called poking. Where they can wear the enemy team down without getting hurt themselves.
It's sothing only the very best players can do, usually, when a team tries this tactic, they make a mistake and Hershal takes advantage of that but the difference between a good and bad player is they don't make many mistakes. Now we have a team of players that have just started playing the ga. We make mistakes all the ti."
Ashley Dan and Novis were nervously laughing at this statent, as they knew when they were practising last ti, they would often do stupid silly things. Sotis they would get to close to the tower without realising it, or hit their own player when grouping up. Honestly, the team was still a ss and it was kind of a miracle they were able to pull off what they had done against Eton.
"I'm guessing you have a plan?" Dan asked.
"Dan you are becoming my favourite person, of course I do. We're going to take advantage of the fact that Hershal likes to group up and going to use a tactic called, Split pushing."
The other mbers each looked at each other to check if anyone knew what Alex was talking about, even Scarlett didn't know what spilt pushing was.
The projector then switched to a map of VSW.
"As you know, there are three pathways you can take to the enemy base in VSW. As I stated before Hershal likes to group up as a five and go down one of these pathway's together, let's use mid as an example. This ans that the top path and bottom path are completely free of players. While we're keeping them busy one of you will be attacking the towers as fast as you can."
"And who will that be?" Scarlett asked.
Alex said nothing but just stared right back at Scarlett.
"!" She said as she pointed at herself.
