His voice is very pleasant to listen to.
It’s deep and clear, like the sound of jade, and as a southerner, his voice is naturally gentle with a hint of fatigue in his tone.
Easy has never shown his face, but he has never refused to do voice recordings. He has also signed with the platform for live broadcasts, and his longtime fans know his voice well.
However, for most of the viewers, it is the first time they have heard his voice.
“Wow, whose voice is this? It sounds so good!”
“What a nice and mature voice! Damn, I’m a voice control fanatic, can anyone tell me if this is Easy’s real voice?”
After getting the verification from his longtime fans, many voice control fans immediately became his new fans without hesitation.
Another group of viewers are still debating the meaning of Rong Yi’s words.
“Training game?”
“Oh my god, amazing! Easy is really showing off! This is too crazy!”
More and more viewers are crowding into the live broadcast room.
Outside the arena, the commentators have been preparing for a long time. After Rong Yi’s words were cut out and broadcasted, the commentators were sweating profusely and chose a safer and more low-key explanation to ease the situation.
“Faced with the first round of group A regular season, the team’s mentality is still stable. Even in the face of the old team on the other side, they still choose to adopt the mentality of a training game.”
Another commentator chimes in, “That’s right. Actually, VIT is a new team and lacks practical experience. With still a month left before the second round of group A regular season, it’s better to be cautious and give them more time to hone their skills.”
The main commentator glances at the messages in the live broadcast room.
“The predictions from the guests and the commentator desk have now been announced.”
It has become a trend for external guests and commentators to make predictions, partly because everyone can show their face and gain popularity, and partly because the audience really needs a guide to direct their expectations.
Currently, the most common prediction is RS: VIT, 3:2 or 2:3 in the opposite direction.
For the top domestic team, everyone has given enough face, or perhaps they have been in the domestic scene for too long, and they no longer have the perspective to watch the World Championship.
During the BP discussion phase, the host was still reading out the comments from the online commentators and celebrity hosts who had entered the live chat, and the netizens followed one by one to see.
RS’s endorsed products and celebrity collaborations dominate the entire venue, even the proportion of fan light panels given in the venue is overwhelmed by the scene of RS’s lights.
Because VIT is a new team, there are very few fans who have come to the competition venue.
Contrary to the mainstream domestic commentators, several heavyweight tournament commentators have made predictions that VIT will win.
“Commentator Lin Yi predicts VIT: RS 3:1.”
“Commentator Xuan Zhi predicts VIT: RS 3:0.”
Lin Yi and Xuan Zhi are both designated national final-level commentators for sponsors for several years, and they also do commentary for foreign tournaments, with extremely professional skills.
Not only them, but the audience also suddenly saw many foreign low-level IDs flooding into the live chat. The number of online viewers is much higher than any previous episode.
Soon, some sharp-eyed e-sports fans recognized them: “Isn’t this Yin’s old team QILIN? Damn, there are four world champions watching the game today!! I was wondering why there were so many strange IDs in the live chat today!”
Fans from all over the world have come to watch this game. Overseas broadcasts take time, and many fans want to see the results as soon as possible.
Rumors have it that Xiao Yin has a good relationship with his former team QILIN, and there have been no disputes. He even let them take two young trainees, who are now Hui Mao and Ci She.
This is also quite rare.
The live room is very lively, and many domestic viewers suddenly feel a tension comparable to that of the finals.
“I’m amazed, there are even more people here than at the domestic finals! And we know that world champions are watching the game with us, I’m so nervous.”
Domestically, RS is still being promoted, and it’s the headline and game push of the Chinese e-sports section. It’s all about “RS, the rising star of the second round of regular season first matches.” But this still can’t stop the increasing popularity of the live room, which is filled with VIT fans.
At the same time, there is a spontaneous influx of global esports followers.
In the eyes of more viewers, VIT is the truly famous team, and Yin’s new team!
RS, on the other hand, is just a small and inconspicuous team that has never made it to the finals in the Asian server region.
RS’s publicity efforts have been very embarrassing and unsuccessful.
The RS team behind the scenes is desperately contacting the broadcast party: “Don’t focus on the audience outside the arena! Don’t let the viewers notice the off-court hype! Focus on the BP!”
News has just arrived that the commentators are quickly changing the topic.
The BP has begun, and according to the rules, each side has five minutes to choose their tactics.
Rong Yi hugged his arms and leaned back on his seat, tilting his head slightly to the side as he watched Hui Mao make their BP selection. He emitted a cool aura.
The training room was off-limits to outsiders, but the referees were present. Five referees stood behind VIT and were already quite familiar with Rong Yi. Although the timing and location were not right, from the back, the sharp jawline and elegant figure were enough to make people understand how crazy people would go for him.
One of the referees couldn’t help but whisper, “It’s a shame that Easy isn’t on camera.”
The others nodded in agreement.
They had nothing to do with Rong Yi personally, they were just admiring his looks and made an untimely remark.
Hui Maofinished selecting their lineup and a few simple counter measures.
Rong Yi glanced over and asked, “Are you sure?”
Hui Mao seemed a bit nervous and replied, “Captain, is it okay? I want…I still want to go all out against them. After all, they are the domestic champions.”
“It’s okay,” Rong Yi nodded.
There’s nothing better than real combat to train oneself. Hui Mao and Ci She lacked experience in high-frequency, high-quality competitions, but he remained completely calm in this regard.
The match begins!
RS takes the first move and bans Xiao Yin, and presses it until he can’t be picked.
RS’s first pick is jungle Lang Bai. According to BP conventions, they generally would first grab a strong hero or use their pick to deny the opponent a favorable character.
“Let’s ban Yin first!” the commentary booth begins to discuss.
According to the usual train of thought, the BP process usually involves grabbing one’s own system or counteracting the opponent’s system.
VIT has no system, only coordination. At present, the top three heroes are Yin, Li, and Ci She’s three shots. Wu Dao Gu’s top lane can also suddenly execute very deadly tactical coordination.
Whether to continue targeting Xiao Yin or grab their own system is a problem.
“Lang Bai is very likely to pick another Di! It’s both their own system and prevents Xiao Yin from being picked,” the audience and commentators looked at the countdown on the screen together.
Di, the league’s number one popular jungle hero. High strength, fast transfer, with output and damage resistance, the jungle position is stable for Diamond 5.
The camera also focuses on this young newcomer’s jungle for RS.
Lang Bai is the strongest jungle of the new generation in China, no doubt about it. At the age of nineteen, he’s a wild and unruly figure. He stares at the screen in front of him, a few seconds pass, and suddenly chooses Li.
Li’s elegant figure suddenly appears on everyone’s homepage.
Even the commentators were stunned: “Li…?”
There’s nothing better than real combat to train someone. The gray cat and the viper lack experience in high-quality matches with high frequency. However, he remains calm about it.
“The game begins!
RS takes the first move and bans Xiao Yin. They keep pressing on not to let Yin come out.
RS’s first pick is the Lang Bai jungle. According to their BP habit, they usually first grab powerful heroes or use selection instead of banning to prevent the opponent from taking advantageous characters.
“BAN Yin first!” The commentators begin to discuss.
According to common strategies, the BP process usually involves grabbing their own system or countering the opponent’s system.
VIT has no system, only cooperation. Currently, their strong suit is the three sharpshooters, Yin, Li, and the viper. Wu Dao Gu’s top laner can unexpectedly execute deadly tactical cooperation.
The question now is whether to continue targeting Xiao Yin or to take their own system.
“Lang Baiis very likely to take another Di! It is not only their own system but also prevents Yin from being selected,” the audience and commentators watch the countdown together.
Di, the number one popular jungle hero in the league. It has high strength, fast transfer, both output and defense, and a stable diamond five jungle seat.
The camera also shows RS’s young newcomer jungle.
Lang Bai is the strongest jungle among China’s new generation, without any doubt. At the age of nineteen, he is rebellious and unruly. He stared at the screen in front of him, and after a few seconds, he chose Li.
Li’s elegant figure suddenly appeared on everyone’s homepage.
Even the commentators were surprised, “Li…?”
If they wanted to limit Li, it made sense because this mage can also be used to jungle. However, the problem is that no one in RS has ever taken Li, and this hero is not compatible with RS’s usual operation system.
Rong Yi raised his eyes and also saw Li selected on the opposite panel.
“Do you know what he’s thinking?” Xiao Yin suddenly asked.
Rong Yi shook his head, “Maybe he’s just playing for show. He does it often.”
Xiao Yin said lightly, “Actually, he picked it to show you.”
Rong Yi was stunned.
Three seconds left in the countdown.
In the silent silence, Lang Bai stared at the opponent’s panel, his eyes sank, and finally chose Di and locked in.
The second floor quickly locked in the mother of the earth, intending to exchange it for Xiao Yun.
On VIT’s side, Hui Mao is the first to act. He banned two irrelevant positions, then followed Rong Yi’s suggestion and chose a support hero, the Memory Key.
The Memory Key, which players generally give the nickname Little Key, has the ability to rewind themselves and their teammates’ states and positions 0.8 seconds ago. The difficulty is extremely high, and even professional players find it hard to use it in matches.
One major reason is that 0.8 seconds can determine life or death, completely in the hands of the support player.
A skilled player can resurrect the whole team from the brink of death, but can also reverse-kill all teammates – if they rewind to a lower, weaker state and a more dangerous position, they become the team’s weak link.
Although Hui Mao had not practiced this hero extensively before, his expertise, Earth Mother, was picked by the opponent, and the jungle role was filled by Di, who has high burst damage and anti-healing effects.
If Earth Mother’s difficulty is in the top tier, then the difficulty of the Little Key is absolutely in the zeroth tier.
On the field, the win rate of Little Key is still less than 20%.
Rong Yi glanced at him, Hui Mao was clenching his lips, staring intently at the opponent’s tactical board, his fingertips trembling.
Rong Yi smiled, “I remember my first starting match against RO, who was then the number one in domestic ranking, in your team with Brother Yin.”
Everyone looked up at him.
Hui Mao also withdrew from the tension and looked over, hoping to hear what he had to say.
“At that time, I picked Little Key,” Rong Yi said, “and was beaten very badly. I was the only one sending teammates to die, and the final score was 12:6. Eight of the twelve times we died were because I didn’t time it right.”
“But that’s how the game is, the meaning of the support position is to raise the upper and lower limits of the team, and escorting the team to victory is not the sole responsibility of the support. The meaning of the support is that he is the gateway of opportunities for the whole team.”
“Opportunities are there to be seized, but the support position is where opportunities are turned into certainties. That is the unique aspect of the support position in electronic sports.”
“Only by defeating all the unknowns in this position can we overcome mistakes and bad luck, which are inevitable before that.”
“I’m done,” Rong Yi said.
Across the way, they put up the Wild Mother D-Link System and Rong Yi chose Li and locked in.
The Hui Mao’s eyes lit up gently after hearing his words.
Xiao Yin was forced to play the role of a toolman in hiding again, and as expected, he would probably give economic advantage to Wu Dao Gu through his gameplay. He mainly roamed the field and worked in tandem with Rong Yi.
Barrages started to appear.
“Brother Yin, a true support.”
“Other than the world champion, everyone on this team is a star player.”
“Brother Yin, a true lay-down dog.”
“Don’t forget that Easy is also a world champion! Li is the strongest thigh.”
“Ci She: A true pressure-resistant road.”
Due to the Hui Mao’s BP simulation, they intentionally put themselves in a disadvantageous position, and started the game facing an uphill battle.
The RS team’s level was indeed different. Lang Bai jungle style was quite cunning, and with the help of the Wild Mother’s hard control, they expanded their advantage after continuously dropping points in the bottom lane. After surrounding and intercepting their opponents, they sealed off the bottom lane and began to shift towards the mid and top lanes, intending to tear the wound even wider.
“VIT’s support, the Hui Mao, is not very proficient in using the little key, mainly because the little key is too difficult to use. If he doesn’t use his skills, the opponent won’t make a move, which is very cunning.”
In the live broadcast of the game, the replay of the small team fight in the bottom lane a few waves ago was shown, and it could be seen that the Hui Mao and Ci She were facing an obvious disadvantage once again.
Netizens from both domestic and foreign countries began to comment.
“Indeed, it’s because they are newcomers and not yet proficient. In actual combat, their experience is a bit inferior to RS.”
“In comparison, RS’s support is slightly better… Ah! RS’s support, he–“
As everyone was comparing the supports, the screen suddenly changed.
After taking the resources of two jungle camps and faking a vision, Rong Yi charged directly into the bottom jungle.
He swiftly executed a combo and directly killed Xiao Yun.
With her knife skills flowing, Xiao Yun used all his skills but Rong Yi had predicted his Q ability in advance. Rong Yi relied on his positioning to rush behind Xiao Yun, bypassed him, and pulled out Lang Bai, who was accumulating his passive skills!
Lang Bai took two slashes from Rong Yi. He didn’t hesitate to use all his skills on Rong Yi. Rong Yi was controlled for a moment, but when his health was low, Hui Mao immediately flashed over and helped his withstand the damage.
Ci She successfully escaped.
At the same time, Rong Yi returned to his position 0.8 seconds ago – in front of Xiao Yun!
Li’s skills were executed smoothly and he directly killed Xiao Yun, who did not retreat, with his smooth and flowing skill. Within a split second, Li had used all seven skills on her panel, including Flash, causing explosive damage.
In this short period of time, Rong Yi even showed a small expression pack, and then returned to the tower under the escort of Xiao Yin’s flesh.
The commentators and audience were crazy, and the screen cut several times before they explained what had just happened.
“First wave! The first wave succeeded in coordinating with the support, and Little Key directly sent Lissandra back! On RS’s side, Xiao Yun didn’t react at all because no one expected him to dare to come back with low health!”
“Yes, Xiao Yun was waiting for his skill and was still staring at RS’s ADC, not realizing that he himself was being watched!”
“Easy is so smooth! He transmitted back and I didn’t even react, and the skill was aimed directly at Xiao Yun!”
Rong Yi played beautifully.
Lissandra is a highly mobile hero, and most players play her as an assassin, with point-grabbing and resource-clearing being very programmed. But he has played with a certain elegance and ease, using his mobility to hurry or escape, giving him a ten-fold grace compared to others.
He pressed the recall button and then said to Mic, “You can go check the river above the Little Eye for a surprise.”
“Really?”
Lissandra had just returned home with full health, and after hearing his words, he took Hui Mao with him to go see. Then he was beaten back by theLang Bai lurking in the grass, “Damn it!”
Rong Yi sounded quite cheerful: “Is it surprising or not?”
The health bar disappeared in an instant and was instantly raised back up, and Lissandra was sent back to 0.8 seconds ago, continuing to clear the minions.
Hui Mao remained silent.
When no one was paying attention, he had already used two rounds of skills in a row.
The first wave was to help Rong Yi go back home, and the second wave was to help Ci She explore the grass.
A thousand training sessions can’t compare to one real battle. This little support from VIT is growing rapidly under the captain’s guidance.
And for those who are more knowledgeable, they can see that all the rhythms are under Easy’s control.
Rong Yi is leading Hui Mao step by step to destroy RS’s early advantage.
On the surface, RS still has a very large economic advantage of four thousand.
But only the referees and coaches know that behind the screen, the atmosphere among RS’s players is gradually becoming heavy.
The most depressing thing is not the initial setback, but being slowly broken down after a period of success.
Especially during the game, the once-smooth operations are now being constantly hindered and restricted by the opponent’s countermeasures, and everything is irreversibly sliding towards an abyss.
No one says it, but the pressure of Rong Yi hangs over everyone’s head.
He knows them too well.
Every position, transfer habits, and lane style are all feelings of being limited everywhere, like a giant stone pressing down, gradually suffocating people.
They are all people that he has personally trained, but at this moment, they still realize that they know nothing about Rong Yi.
