30: Chapter 30... Wait, is there something wrong with the probability of getting the D card?
By this time, Shen Mo was no longer prepared to hide his skills!
Although he said he didn't care, the situation he faced was indeed not optimistic. The strength of 7 Magic Warriors was no joke; he had used this lineup himself, so he naturally knew how strong it was.
High-cost cards were banned!
The lineup he was going to use next must absolutely not be seen by his opponent. Otherwise, once the opponent blocked his cards, it would truly be impossible to recover, and there would basically be no other room for error to play.
However, this incident also served as a reminder to Shen Mo: never underestimate the enemy!
The Gods Arena had been going on for eleven years; who knew what kind of hidden resources the opponent might still have on hand?
[Dragon Kingdom, contestant Shen Mo uses a 'lineup shielding card'!]
[Successfully used!]
[During this match, contestants and viewers cannot see your lineup pieces, including the pieces on the bench.]
Eagle Country: "Huh, Shen Mo shielded his own lineup?"
"What's the point? Even if you shield it, you're still going to get beaten up. It doesn't increase combat power!" The audience from the Korean team didn't care at all.
The scheme had succeeded.
Any struggle was futile!
The Dragon Kingdom audience, however, had their eyes light up. Familiar with Shen Mo, they knew he wouldn't do something without a reason, and they began to analyze frantically.
"What do you mean? Is there something special about shielding the arena?"
"There must be! Do you understand what a secret weapon is? My blind guess is that Shen Mo definitely has a secret weapon this time, and it's very strong!"
"Daoist Master: This poor priest observed the celestial phenomena at night. The Ziwei star is dim, indicating a shift..."
"Speak human language!"
"Daoist Master: Shen Mo is sure to win! If he loses, I'll shave my head and become a monk!"
"Hiss... This flag from the Daoist Master is impressive. Let's believe it for now!"
...
1-1 Stage!
Shop refresh!
Shen Mo pondered for a moment, casually grabbed a Blitzcrank, and threw it to the front row to fight monsters!
The lineup he wanted to play this time was actually very simple: the dual-carry closed-loop Tristana! This lineup was a typical gambling-style lineup, forming at level 7. The lineup composition consisted of: Blitzcrank + Lillia + KogMaw + Nunu + Rumble + Tristana + Jinx!
Composition: 3 Honeymancy, 2 Cake, 2 Bastion, 2 Striker, 2 Hunter, 2 Faerie, 2 Heavy Armor!
A total of 7 Synergies!
Why was it called closed-loop Tristana?
Because after this lineup was formed, there wasn't a single redundant Synergy; it formed a closed loop perfectly!
Of course, regarding this Synergy, there was actually another saying: the player who first discovered this closed loop originally wanted to use a set of low-cost cards to complete the 'Trait Tracker' Hextech, but accidentally discovered this closed-loop combination.
After final testing, it was found that once everyone in this Synergy reached three stars, the overall strength was not weak at all!
Front row: Blitzcrank + Lillia + Nunu + Rumble, four 3-star tanks holding the line.
Back row: 3-star Jinx + 3-star KogMaw + 3-star Tristana outputting crazy damage!
Under the PDD Synergy condition, these low-cost pieces had actually undergone one overall upgrade, and having everyone reach three stars was the second overall upgrade. The result of 2 massive upgrades was... the strength was off the charts!
The reason Shen Mo chose to use this lineup to fight 7 Magic Warriors, besides not having too many choices, was most importantly, this lineup contained a piece that hard-countered Kassadin... Jinx!
Jinx's ability: Gains 125% decaying attack speed. Attacks cause 35% Attack + 8 / 12 / 20 Ability Power as extra true damage within 4 seconds. Kills refresh this effect for 3 seconds!
Hidden passive: Lock-on!
With double guinsoos rageblade + Infinity Edge, or even triple guinsoos rageblade, can you imagine Jinx's extreme attack speed, crazily bombarding your front-row pieces, adding true damage while also having lock-on?
Kassadin's shield was useless in front of Jinx. The dual combination of true damage + lock-on.
Basically, once locked onto Kassadin, this guy was done for.
What was the use of having a thick shield?
Did you really think Jinx's true damage was just for show?
The only thing to worry about was Kalista in the back row, but he had already told Karin to take Kalista. And given the current environment of this Gods Arena, everyone was playing Mowar, so it was almost impossible for the opponent to get a three-star.
Sure enough!
As the match started, after three waves of jungle monsters were cleared, Sharu from India had already started rolling for Kassadin!
In the equipment bench, there was a Recurve Bow, a Tear, and a Large Rod!
guinsoos rageblade was ready!
Sharu's face was ecstatic. Kassadin's two god-tier items were Bloodthirster and guinsoos rageblade, but when it came to equipment priority in Stage 2, guinsoos rageblade was clearly even above Bloodthirster!
A perfect start!
"Can't roll it! Can't roll it! Oh my! What kind of dog luck does Sharu have? 2 Kassadin in the 2-1 stage?"
"Is this even playable? He even has a Flame Sword, I'm numb!"
The Dragon Kingdom audience's prayers failed, and they started summoning the Daoist Master again: "Daoist Master! Are you useless?! You can't even catch up to fresh poop. Sharu already has 2 Kassadin, aren't you a mole sent by the other side?!"
"Come, bring me my 40-meter machete, I'm going to shave a monk's pate for the Daoist Master~"
Daoist Master: Sometimes I really want to call the police!
It was just bragging.
You guys actually took it seriously?
Now you're going to blame me for the situation?
If I could really cast spells, I'd curse you all to be born without an asshole first!
Dark clouds covered the arena. Because a shielding card was used, the audience could not see the situation on Shen Mo's board.
They could only judge the current situation by the shouts of the pieces.
"Daoist Master: Hmm, very good, this scream is Lillia's. I am very familiar with her screams..."
"???"
"What the hell do you do all day at Mount Longhu!"
A few seconds later.
[Stage 2-1 ended.]
[Dragon Kingdom vs Java Kingdom, Java Kingdom wins!]
[Ranking change!]
[Sixth place: Dragon Kingdom, Shen Mo, HP: 96 points!]
"Sigh, sure enough, even if the battlefield is shielded, a loss is a loss."
"But at least he didn't lose too ugly..." The Dragon Kingdom netizens could only comfort themselves this way.
The situation on the field was like this: although Sharu's Kassadin was only one star, with 3 Mowar, one Bloodthirster was enough to win a streak in the early game. And this guy's Jax was already 2-star!
"The legendary Shen Mo of the Dragon Kingdom, nothing special." The Java Kingdom started to clamor.
The Korean team wanted to echo, but the Dragon Kingdom netizens were angry.
Who the hell are you?
A tiny little country dares to be arrogant?
The sky-covering barrage arrived instantly, spraying the arrogant Java Kingdom audience until they went autistic.
Seeing the momentum was not good, the Korean team decisively retreated again.
...
On the arena, Karin's worried voice came: "Shen Mo, are you okay?"
"What's the rush."
Shen Mo was very relaxed. It was just conventional HP-sacrificing to get equipment, you guys were all so impatient.
2-4 Stage!
Shen Mo unsurprisingly continued to lose three rounds in a row. He successfully got the Large Rod in the draft as he wished. Thus, 2 guinsoos rageblade were formed!
The audience couldn't see Shen Mo's bench, but Shen Mo could see it himself!
Sharu had a perfect start, true, but how did that old saying go? Who didn't have a perfect start? The jungle monsters dropped 3 pieces of equipment for him: a Recurve Bow, a Recurve Bow, and a Large Rod.
Now that he got the Large Rod from the draft, Shen Mo had double guinsoos rageblade ready!
"Equipment is in place, just missing Jinx!"
"Since everyone is so anxious, let's just ramp up the intensity!"
Usually, fighting the first rock monster was at level 5, but Shen Mo didn't want to wait, so he chose to level up directly.
Level up to 5!
The golden light of leveling up flashed. Shen Mo glanced at the odds of rolling the shop.
45%, 33%, 22%!
Very good... Hmm?!
Wait!
Is there something wrong with this probability!
