Chapter 91 Whose fan are you?
For more than half a month since the last battle, xiaOt has been thinking about how to deal with Zhang Wei's waves. He has calculated dozens of different plans in his mind.
But plans are plans, and no matter how many plans there are, the results need to be verified through practice.
The first plan xiaOt chose was to build an arrow tower at home for defense.
Since you are trying to beat me to death with an arrow tower, I will also build an arrow tower for defense. When our arrow tower is against the arrow tower, I will still fight at home, and I will definitely not suffer.
However, xiaOt soon discovered that this method did not work. Because the beasts can’t build arrow towers as fast as the humans! Before even one arrow tower on our side was built, the opponent's two arrow towers started shooting!
Here we will talk about the building construction mechanism of the four races in Warcraft.
The undead build buildings, similar to the Protoss in StarCraft. After pressing the button, the buildings will be built by themselves, and the farmers can leave to do other things.
The night elves build large tree-like buildings, similar to the reorganization of StarCraft, which consumes a farmer. Building non-large trees does not consume farmers.
The Orcs build buildings, similar to the Terrans in StarCraft, where a farmer slowly builds them.
When humans build buildings, it is similar to the Empire Age. One farmer or multiple farmers can build a building at the same time. The more farmers participate in the construction, the faster the construction speed.
That is to say, the construction speed of buildings of the other three races is fixed, and only the human race can speed up the construction.
In this case, the orcs rely on arrow towers to defend against the human arrow towers, which is obviously impossible to defend against, because you can’t build them as fast as others!
xiaOt successfully staged a wave of wrong demonstrations and had no choice but to play GG.
“xiaOt actually lost!” Li Xiaofeng, who was watching the battle from behind, looked shocked.
This is the strongest orc in China, and he lost to a fan who was holding a digital camera and looking for professional players to take photos with him!
And this loser has no temper, and can't even see any comeback point.
The quarterfinals are BO3, best of three games, and the second game for two people will start immediately.
This time, xiaOt changed to another idea. Since I can’t defend, I can attack! Isn't the best defense just offense?
So xiaOt showed another error demonstration.
The human race has a setting where farmers can become militiamen next to the main base. The militiamen's attack, defense, health, and movement speed are all improved. The militia unit is also the core force of human defense.
The existence of militia means that with the same population, the human race can have more troops to participate in defensive battles, and more troops means that some of the troops can be used to steal towers from the opponent's base.
There is no doubt that the offensive tactics also failed. xiaOt once again played GG, losing two games in a row and falling into the loser group.
"xiaOt actually lost to my fans! Are my fans so strong? I haven't even defeated xiaOt yet! What can I do that my fans can't do?" Li Xiaofeng said Incredible expression on face.
Before the 2004 WCG China finals, Li Xiaofeng had indeed never defeated xiaOt in an official game.
Historically, it was also in the 2004 WCG event that Li Xiaofeng faced xiaOt and used his famous SKY flow for the first time, and defeated xiaOt for the first time.
It’s just that the SKY style at the beginning did not fight in a wave, but relied on the beast king to suppress it. After taking advantage, it would normally send out mage troops to fight in the mid-to-late stage, and then rely on a war of attrition to defeat the opponent.
Later, with continuous tactical innovation, it evolved into the so-called Yiboliu.
At this time, what Zhang Wei was using was directly the completed version of SKY Yiboliu. What to play in the middle and late stages? Why fight to pull consumption? Just beat you to death and count the ball!
At this time, Li Xiaofeng had also realized that Zhang Wei's style of play seemed to be more effective than the tactics he had prepared.
"Is this guy really a fan of mine? Why does he understand the human race's tactics better than I do!"
......
Zhang Wei successfully entered the winner group, and his next opponent is It’s another BOSS-level figure, China’s number one night elf suhO Su Hao!
There are only four people in total who can enter the winner group, and each of them is a top player in the country. At this stage, every opponent is a big devil.
In 2004, Su Hao was at his peak. No one in the country could beat him. He also won the WCG China championship.
Even Li Xiaofeng commented that if Su Hao can get a US visa this year and go to San Francisco to play games, then the WCG champion will definitely be Su Hao!
You must know that in the 2004 WCG World Finals, there were two great gods, Grubby, the Orc Emperor, and Moon, the Moon Demon. Together with SKY Li Xiaofeng, the three of them were called "Papaya Gai" by players. Warcraft The three emperors of the realm.
If Su Hao can really win the championship, it will be equivalent to killing "Papaya Gai" consecutively. He will definitely be the most valuable World of Warcraft champion in history, and he will directly become the fourth emperor!
......
Looking at Zhang Wei opposite, Su Hao's mind recalled yesterday's scene.
A young man came over with a digital camera, claiming that he was his fan and wanted to take a photo with him.
However, at the end of yesterday's game, Su Hao found out that this fan was also a player and had advanced to the quarterfinals.
In the first round of the quarterfinals just now, this fan unexpectedly defeated xiaOt, the number one orc in the country, and now he has to compete with himself.
Hit your own fans during the game? Su Hao always felt a little weird.
However, there was no father and son on the field. Su Hao still felt that it was better to go all out. What if the car accidentally overturned, how embarrassing it would be!
"Su Hao, we've arrived at Qi Ban Map!" the interviewer's voice sounded.
Su Hao glanced at the form in the referee's hand, and Zhang Wei on the opposite side actually banned the map LostTemple!
"What's going on? This map is a big disadvantage for the night elves. Why didn't he ban it and left Turtle Island to me instead?"
Lost Temple is easy for humans to mine. , it is easy to level up in the early stage, and there is a spring in the middle to restore blood volume, so it is easy to replenish.
This map of Turtle Island is very difficult for the human race to mine, and the wild monsters are very strong, making it difficult for the human race to level up. It is a disadvantageous map for the human race, and most humans will ban this map.
Now Zhang Wei has gone in the opposite direction, banishing the Lost Temple, which is his advantage, and instead leaving the Turtle Island, which is his disadvantage.
"Are the fans planning to recommend me to advance? What a good fan! I can't waste his good intentions!"
Thinking of this, Su Hao chose Turtle Island without hesitation. This map has its own advantages.
The match between the two began, and the first map was Su Hao's first choice, Turtle Island.
However, what Su Hao didn't expect was that as soon as he put down the barracks, a small red dot appeared on the map.
The human race's pathfinding militia has arrived.
"What's going on? Why are the pathfinders so fast? Did he use the farmers at the beginning to explore the paths? Are they asking me, a farmer?" Su Hao was startled.
The human race starts with five farmers. One farmer builds an altar, and the other four mine. They will explore the path after building a few more farmers.
And if you send farmers to explore the road at the beginning, it is equivalent to giving your opponent a farmer at the beginning, which will be a fatal blow to the economy. In a confrontation of the same level, if you let the peasants start, you won't be able to win at all.
"This fan is too polite. He is afraid that I won't be able to advance to the next level, so he is letting me go like this! In fact, he doesn't have to do this. He can just fight normally. There is no way he can beat me anyway!" Su Hao thought in his heart Secret passage.
However, the next second, Zhang Wei's farmers ran to the side of Su Hao's gold mine and started building the tower directly!
Su Hao was suddenly shocked! Is he trying to tower over me?
However, Su Hao really had no idea! At this time, he hadn't even built the altar yet. He had no heroes, no soldiers, and the farmers in the dark night had no attack power and no feedback ability.
A few seconds later, several more red dots appeared on the mini-map. Zhang Wei sent two more militiamen over, and then continued to build towers next to the gold mine.
Let's make it, and we also put up an architecture, with two towers in front and an arrow tower stuck at the back, making it impossible for melee units to attack!
The moment hero Su Hao appeared, the first arrow tower of the human race was also built!
Level 1 heroes cannot dismantle an arrow tower without any equipment, not to mention that the human race has farmers next to the arrow tower who can constantly repair it.
Immediately afterwards, the second and third arrow towers were also built. The key is that these three arrow towers are right next to Su Hao's treasury, directly threatening the collection of the treasury.
This is worse than shooting at the base. The arrow tower shoots at the base. You can also repair the base and mine at the same time. The arrow tower directly threatens the current situation. You can't even mine ores, which directly cuts off your source of income.
Any game that cuts off its financial source will end in death!
......
Seeing Su Hao play GG, Zhang Wei let out a sigh of relief.
When banning the map at that time, the reason why Zhang Wei banned the Lost Temple was because there was no tavern on this map and neutral heroes could not be recruited. Without the blessing of the second-shot Beast King, the one-wave tactics were much weaker. .
The reason why he was willing to release the map of Turtle Island was to take a chance on his luck.
Turtle Island is a four-player map with four spawn points, but two of the four spawn points are the closest among all competition maps.
The spawn point is relatively close, which means the attack distance will be shorter, which is most suitable for the human race to use a wave strategy.
So although the map of Turtle Island is a disadvantaged map for the human race, it has a very special tactic for the human race, which is to first scout the nearest birth point at the beginning, and once an enemy is found, immediately attack TowerRush, directly beat the opponent to death.
Even if the opponent can't be killed by a slap, the opponent can barely defend it, but he has lost half his life, and it will be difficult to fight later.
It was also because this tactic was too bullying, and Blizzard later had to modify the map to not allow two players to be born in close proximity, so this tactic was banned.
What Zhang Wei wanted to bet on was the nearest birth point.
He actually won the bet! Su Hao is really close.
At that time, Zhang Wei even withdrew the altar that was under construction, put down the lumberyard, and then invested all his resources into the three arrow towers on the front line.
As long as the three arrow towers are completed, this game will be over.
……
Su Hao felt that this fan was so unkind and even carried out a tactical raid!
In the next game, we must regain our position!
However, Zhang Wei did not intend to give him a chance, he directly used SKY's wave tactics.
When the little red dot appeared on the map, Su Hao immediately cut the screen and saw the Archmage bringing the Beast King over to kill him.
"Second-shot Beast King Suppression? Isn't this the tactic SKY secretly practiced!" Su Hao thought to himself.
Su Hao is SKY's teammate, and he is quite familiar with SKY's tactics. He also knows that he secretly practiced a new tactic in order to deal with xiaOt. The two also used new tactics to fight against each other, but SKY did not get any advantage.
So when Su Hao saw the Beast King, he didn't take it seriously. He felt that he could easily defend against it.
However, what Su Hao didn't expect was that Zhang Wei came over to build the tower again!
With the same move, SKY just wants to suppress you. After gaining a certain advantage, it will slowly attack the later stage.
But Zhang Wei wants your life!
It was also the first time for Su Hao to see this desperate fighting style. He was caught off guard and made a wrong decision. He huddled at home and relied on his big trees and well water for defense.
If the night elves want to defend against the wave of human beings, they must not stay at home and defend, but they must try their best to fight.
Because the night elves mainly use long-range firepower, archers need space to pull. If they are approached by melee units and forced into a corner, the archers will definitely die.
Huddled at home, there is no room to pull, and in the end you can only be wall-dumped by the enemy's melee units.
These experiences of defending Yibo Liu were summed up after countless dark night players were beaten to a black face. Naturally, Su Hao didn't know about it, and ended up being photographed in the base by Zhang Wei Yibo Liu again. , watching helplessly as his buildings were shot up by arrow towers one by one.
In desperation, Su Hao played GG, lost to Zhang Wei 0-2, and fell into the loser's bracket.
......
The moment Su Hao played GG, the surrounding audience was in an uproar!
Su Hao actually lost, and the loser was not famous masters like SKY and xiaOt, but a passerby!
Although every year in WCG competitions, there are always some passerby players who emerge as dark horses, but like this year, it has never been possible for a passerby dark horse to defeat two championship-level players, xiaOt and Su Hao. Passed.
Many viewers began to ask each other, where did this ZW come from and why is it so fierce?
While this game was going on, Li Xiaofeng was also competing with his opponent. Although he did not watch this game, he still stepped forward to comfort his teammate Su Hao when he learned that he had lost the game.
"Don't worry, it's just that you entered the loser's bracket and you can fight back later. For you, it's just a matter of playing a few more games!" Li Xiaofeng said.
"I think it's quite frustrating to lose. It's okay to lose to you, but to lose to a fan!" Su Hao replied.
Li Xiaofeng was stunned: "How do you know Zhang Wei is my fan?"
"What's your fan? He's my fan! He asked me to take a photo yesterday!"
"When did Zhang Wei become your fan? You can tell by seeing that he uses human race. He is my fan! I am still connected with my fans!”
At this time, xiaOt, who was preparing to participate in the next round of competition, also came over.
"Su Hao, I heard that you also lost to Zhang Wei. We are going to meet in the loser group! How about it? Is this fan of mine awesome?" xiaOt said.
"Why am I your fan again! He is my fan!"
"He's obviously my fan!"
"He's your fan. Did you ask him to agree?"
"He must agree! If you don't believe me, I'll tell you!"
< br>"If I call, he will definitely agree. I can also call you and see!"
The three people argued for a long time, and finally turned their attention to Zhang Wei at the same time.
The next second, the three people shouted almost in unison: "Zhang Wei!"
"Here you are!" Zhang Wei turned around and found that the three people were staring at him.
It’s not easy for these three masters to come together!
Thinking of this, Zhang Wei immediately took out his digital camera and walked up with a smile.
“I’m a fan, let’s take a photo together!”
Thank you all for taking the time to take a look and pass. This chapter has more than 4,000 words. It can be considered as two chapters combined. I won’t update it tonight. Mainly on the second day of the Lunar New Year, I have to go back to my father-in-law's house to pass the customs, and I don't have much time all day long. The WCG part will come to an end tomorrow. Let me give you a preview. New roommates will appear tomorrow. There will finally be four people in the dormitory!
