Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 807: 3: 0 Violent Beating

In the lounge backstage of FV Club, Min Jingchao, Bao Xu, Wu Yue, and the others were also paying attention to the competition.

The audience felt that releasing Chaos Misfortune was ridiculous, but the people in the lounge did not think so.

That was because these were all pre-arranged tactics.

The hero Chaos Misfortune was very good at team battles when it was growing up, but as long as they chose a strong hero with range in the early stages and a strong jungler who could cross the tower, they would be able to pass through the time. The Chaos Misfortune who could not grow would be a free gift to themselves instead.

Previously, the teams in the group stages could not defeat Chaos Misfortune mainly because their thoughts were unclear and they were not ruthless enough. They would always let it develop to twenty minutes and then would not be able to defeat it.

The members of FV and SUG had already practiced many rounds against this playstyle. They had also considered how to counterattack on the side of Chaos Misfortune. Obviously, the other party was not mentally prepared for this. FV was very confident.

The competition officially began. FV Club was like a sophisticated machine, executing every segment according to the tactics that Zhou Pengyuan had designed previously.

At the beginning, he had been keeping track of the opponent’s jungler’s movements. After their jungler leveled up by two levels, they had rushed straight to the top lane. At the same time, their long-range heroes on the top lane had pushed the line crazily the moment they came up. After suppressing Chaos Misfortune to the bottom of the tower, the jungler had arrived just in time. The two of them had carried the tower perfectly and killed Chaos Misfortune directly!

The junglers had already left before the enemy’s junglers changed their routes and rushed over.

The player who controlled Chaos Misfortune was obviously stunned. After reviving, he only dared to farm wretched under the tower. He was criticized severely by their own long-range hero.

The CEM team was stuck in a dilemma. If they did not help, Chaos Misfortune would be pressed under the tower and rubbed against them crazily. They would not be able to play with the hero’s restraint and the one-hit advantage. If they helped, they would explode together once they were thumbed down by the opponent. The entire game would be over!

Everyone in the backstage lounge heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that the game could continue playing according to the script that they had planned. Their tense hearts relaxed completely.

Min Jingchao sighed. “I overestimated the other party. I thought that they would be on guard when they saw us choose this lineup. In the end, they were not vigilant at all. Perhaps they were still confused when they saw our chosen lineup?”

Wu Yue had not participated in daily training before, so he was a little surprised to see that his team’s tactics were executed so perfectly. “Choosing a solo suppressing hero plus a jungler who can pass the tower in the early stages can infinitely target Chaos Misfortune. Since that’s the case, why can’t the other teams think of it?”

Min Jingchao smiled. “Boss Wu, it’s not that simple.”

“A complete battle strategy is very complicated. It is not as simple as a simple restraint like the one in Jungle. The key is in the details and calculation of data whether a certain battle strategy is just talk on paper or can produce miraculous effects.”

“First of all, the two heroes that we chose to play in the jungle are cold bench heroes. The previous appearance rate was very low, and many teams that are superstitious about strong heroes would not consider them. Secondly, we made a lot of early preparations around tactics, including studying the opponent’s farming route, making preparations in advance to detect the opponent’s jungler’s movements, frequently charging the health of the minions to ensure that the conditions for the tower crossing were created, and so on. Lastly, in order to make it easier for the jungler to pass the tower, we let the jungler bring a special defensive engraving, just enough to escape with low health and not be beaten into one.”

“The hero Chaos Misfortune is very weak in the early stages. He is helpless even if he is under the tower. We would definitely not choose to cross the tower if it were other heroes.”

“More importantly, we discovered that most IOI teams do not have a deep understanding of the damage and mechanisms of the defense tower. They mistakenly thought that it would be safe to hide under the defense tower in the early stages. However, in fact, IOI’s defense tower seems to have high damage but it is not as high as we imagined. As long as we let the small soldiers take the first hit of the defense tower and use their skills to avoid the last hit of the defense tower, it would be enough to kill Chaos Misfortune…”

Wu Yue was convinced and nodded repeatedly.

Obviously, this was the power of data!

Other teams might have also thought about how the early stages of the game would affect Chaos Misfortune’s development. However, without the support of the corresponding data, they would not have thought of directly crossing the tower.

Min Jingchao continued, “Speaking of which, this is also a tactic that GOG used before. If it was the previous version of IOI, it would be very risky to cross the tower. However, the new version of IOI increased the speed of farming after slight adjustments. GOG’s playstyle can be used.”

“I can only say that we are working well with Finger Games’ version update.”

…

Jingzhou.

Pei Qian’s hand that was holding the potato chips froze in mid-air. He did not put it into his mouth.

That was because he could no longer understand the direction of the live-streaming game on television!

On the FV team’s side, their army was intact. Chaos Misfortune had been trembling under the tower the entire time. If his teammates did not come, he would die. If his teammates came, they would die together. It was a tragic sight.

CEM battleteam was obviously stunned. His teammates did not know if they should help him or not. If they did not help him, this Chaos Misfortune would definitely die. He would not be able to develop at all. If they helped him, they might also die together.

They lost the initiative bit by bit in their repeated hesitation.

On the other hand, FV Club was like a precision machine. The five players were like five parts that operated perfectly. Step by step, they controlled the field of vision, snatched the map resources, and grabbed the list. The huge advantage of the top lane quickly spread throughout the entire game.

In the end, in just 25 minutes, FV Club relied on the huge snowballing economic advantage to directly pierce through CEM and end the battle.

The first round ended easily. The score between the two teams changed to 1: 0!

The competition had temporarily come to an end, and the players of both teams returned to their resting rooms to rest. The camera panned to the members of the CEM team. Their confident and proud smiles had completely disappeared, replaced by confusion.

He had never seen anyone play games like that!

Previously, they had felt good about bullying noobs in the group stages. However, after meeting FV today, they suddenly felt that they were playing a different game from the group stages. They were completely suppressed by their IQ and could not use their strength. They were being beaten up by the other party.

The scariest thing was that the coach might not even know how to play the next two rounds.

If they had only lost because of the hero, Chaos Misfortune, then they could have just banned it on the next round. However, this time, they had obviously been defeated from all angles. From the performance of the first round, both parties were on completely different levels in terms of tactical arrangements and details. How could they play against them?

The members of CEM Team did not expect to be hammered in the head in the first round by a team that everyone thought to be weak. They could not accept this fact for a while.

The direction of the bullet screen changed on the television in front of Pei Qian.

The voices that questioned why FV Club released Chaos Misfortune had completely disappeared. The entire screen was filled with praises like 6666 or impressive, awesome.

Even the fake reviewers who had been trying their best to lead the game had stopped.

This competition was too good!

Unlike the teams in the group stages, FV Club chose an early-stage lineup and carried it out without saying a word. They started killing people at level two and repeatedly sent their troops on the way. After that, they invaded crazily and ate the opposite jungle clean. The snowball rolled very quickly and did not give the opponents any chance throughout!

In the end, they even showed off their skills and displayed his arrogance.

In fact, Finger Games’ new version of IOI was to speed up the pace of the game, strengthen the confrontation, and improve the viewing pleasure of the competition. FV Club, on the other hand, vividly displayed the characteristics of the new version, highlighting a bad-tempered person.

The audience felt an inexplicable sense of joy as they watched the invincible Chaos Misfortune being repeatedly trampled over by the FV, which wished that it could die twice in five minutes.

They had finally vented all of his pent-up anger from being mocked “cn ioi noob” by foreign gamers!

However, everyone knew that this was only the first round of the BO5. They could not be too blindly optimistic. FV Club had thought of a way to counter Chaos Misfortune. It was equivalent to using a big move to win.

In the next round, the opponent could just ban Chaos Misfortune entirely. It was still unknown what the outcome would be.

The players who had been disheartened by the domestic IOI before now felt like they had just been rescued from a hopeless situation. They once again perked up and continued watching the competition!

…

Los Angeles, at the competition venue.

Zhao Xuming stood below the stage, watching FV battleteam’s successive victories with an expression of shock.

During the two hours of competition, Zhao Xuming had a strange feeling that this world was not real!

The commentator at the venue was the official commentator of Finger Games. His English was fluent and passionate.

On the big screen, the purple side had already attacked the blue side’s high ground. The final battle was about to begin.

“The CEM team has the first casualty. They were utterly defeated. FV began to pursue the victory! Miracles did not happen. At the last moment of the third round, CEM team tried to fight a perfect team battle to save their own fate. However, they failed because of the vision that FV set up in advance!”

“The FV maintained a perfect formation, advancing steadily like an invincible tank, making the CEM team feel extremely hopeless!”

“It’s a pity that this is a competition that cannot be recorded in the history books because this competition ended in just 25 minutes. This battle is so overwhelming that it’s difficult for us to judge if it’s because we severely underestimated FV’s strength or because CEM performed abnormally for some unknown reason?”

“However, no matter what, FV, which was unanimously looked down upon before the competition, showed their fangs in this competition. They used three hearty victories to prove their strength. Perhaps all the opponents have to reevaluate the true strength of this Eastern team. Obviously, their performance in the competition was as shocking as their performance on Twitter!”

The English commentators at the venue were not stingy with their praise as they praised FV Club.

Obviously, today’s competition had completely conquered everyone. It had even challenged their understanding of the game.

Zhao Xuming fell into a state of confusion and almost thought that he was hallucinating.

The FV actually beat the opponent at 3: 0 and made it into the top four?

What’s more, every round would take only about 25 minutes or so. The entire scene was one-sided!

In the competition, FV Club displayed two different styles:

During the time of the match and the snowball, all the players completed their tasks as accurately as robots. They could hardly see any mistakes;

Once they entered an advantageous period, they would play aggressively. They would surpass the tower, show their mark, and torture the spring. They simply did not treat the opponent as a human. They would play the top eight of the finals as though the opponents were a bunch of rookies!

Obviously, this was something that could only be done if there was a clear gap between both parties’ strength and understanding of the game.

Zhao Xuming had been waiting for FV Club to be defeated at 3: 0 so that the fake reviewers would increase their efforts. Yet, FV had given the opposing team 3: 0!

All the excuses he had prepared earlier were all for nothing!

The only thing Zhao Xuming felt now was confusion.

Wasn’t FV Team just a team that was about the same strength as SUG? If they were to say that they had won one round, that would be a huge win. However, if they were to thrash the European and American teams at 3: 0, what would they say?

Zhao Xuming even suspected that Boss Pei secretly changed all five members of FV Team. Otherwise, how could such a drastic change happen in such a short time?

It was not only Zhao Xuming who did not understand. Long Yu Corporation, Finger Games, and even the entire world’s audience did not understand either.

Boss Pei’s series of operations had completely touched their blind spot in their knowledge.
