Wa: It’s broken, I’ve become a cutting monster!

Come to Figure 2, the Lotus Ancient City.

For Lev, this map is still something he is constantly trying out in the new version. During the Shanghai Masters, Lev used the system of Dark Dream and double smoke. In the second stage of the American stage, Lev used Neon and double vanguards to deal with it.

Moreover, as Lotus Ancient City is a recognized offensive map, Lev can always get more than 6 points on the defensive side, whether it is against Loud or G2, so Lev also chose to start with defense this time.

With the weakening of Viper and Ryze, many teams including EDG will choose a system of Neon and double vanguards in Lotus Ancient City, without sentinels. This lineup is a bit risky, but then again, it still depends on the people!

Neon is a double-edged sword. The team that chooses it must cooperate with the two vanguards to serve Neon. But it still depends on the person. Some teams have the big brother as the sentry, so even the Neon system will give way to its own sentry.

Whether it is double vanguards plus double controllers, or double vanguards plus a single sentry, Lev has never played on the Lotus Ancient City map in this championship, so it is still unknown whether they will change their lineup.

Not to mention fpx, although Lotus Ancient City is their strong map, the lineup they use every time they appear is more or less different, and there is no fixed lineup.

When talking about the Lotus Ancient City, we have to mention the FNC team. Although FNC's performance in every world competition is very poor, their research direction is definitely leading the entire Valorant professional team.

After the first appearance of the fnc lineup two years ago, it has directly become the mainstream lineup and is recognized by the world as the most suitable lineup for the Lotus Ancient City. Even in the current version where double vanguards are popular, there are still many teams that will choose the "fnc lineup".

The Americas region really likes research. In addition to FNC, 100t's Origin Worker and Black Dream system is still in use today.

Both sides have finished selecting their lineups, and when the two lineups appeared, everyone's eyes lit up!

First, let’s look at lev:

Rez (aspas), Security (tex), Shadow (kingg), Black Dream (com), Iron Wall (mazino)!

Aspas did not choose the most powerful one-shot Neon in the current version, but replaced it with the former one-shot queen of Lotus Ancient City, Ryze! Paired with Ryze's special support Black Dream and Lotus Ancient City's strong pioneer Iron Wall.

FPX also showed their strength here. Although it was not a life-and-death game and there was still one chance to revive, there was nothing left to hide!

Ryze (Shan Anyang), Viper (Zhang He), Dark Dream (Ayang), Qile (Autumn), Shadow (Life)!

Returning to the original intention, when this lineup came out, everyone’s eyes lit up and they dreamed of returning to Shanghai!

After Ryze was weakened, Shan Anyang played Ryze again in Lotus Ancient City for the first time, and the wonderful scenes of the world's first explosion floated in front of everyone's eyes again. Whether it was the underwater mid-air rotation of the C point of Lotus Ancient City to cut the short cannon and fight two, or the single-player breakthrough of the A point with a big bomb jump...

Dan Anyang's Reze seems to have become the synonym of entertainment. Different from other professional Reze's playing styles, Dan Anyang's Reze is more inclined to the aggressive playing style of ranking show operation. Very bold and flexible, just like Aspas's Jiefeng, both are "dancers in the air"!

When it comes to the pistol round, the opening shot directly sets the tone for the round.

"What's going on? Why are there so many justices?" As soon as the game footage came out, the commentator was shocked.

Four Justices started the game. Lev was on defense, so Aspas picked Justice even though he was playing Rez. He wanted to rely on his superior shooting skills to gain some advantages first. The security guard also picked Justice in the pistol round.

In FPX, Zhang He was playing Viper, so he bought a Justice when there was a free smoke. The same was true for Autumn. It was really rare to see four Justice pistols on both sides!

When the light curtain fell, Lev chose to bet directly on point A. The four people crossed at point A and must counter-clear it in the second time. Point B was completely controlled, with only one security camera watching, and the security guard was guarding point C alone.

No matter how the lineup changes in the three-point map, the map of Lotus Ancient City, which is a combination of three-point map, switchable doors and destructible stone gates, is always an offensive map.

Here, Zhang He with Justice harassed at point A, and the rest of the team concentrated outside C. At the beginning, Zhang He's poison wall was fixed on point A. Even with four people present, Lev did not rush to grab the point A, but waited for a while.

After the effect of Zhang He's poison wall disappeared, Lev immediately started to counterattack.

There was no skill involved, just a simple four-man fight! The four FPX players outside C also put pressure on C at the same time, and the security guard standing at the C gate was directly forced to retreat.

At the same time, the battle broke out first at A. Zhang He, who was standing upright, fired the first shot, but he knew that there were no teammates behind him, so he didn't want to fight. Under the premise that the first shot failed to block the opponent's big pull, Zhang He immediately retreated and used the high penetration attribute of justice to start penetrating the wall!

Lev's Mazino was crippled on the spot. The unlucky guy was shot twice by Zhang He through the wall, and his health was reduced to only 1 drop!

"There are a lot of A-levels, at least three!" Zhang He also gave important information while retreating. After getting the basic positions of the opposing personnel, fpxc immediately speeded up!

Shan Anyang and autumn's mines were thrown directly behind the bomb site, forcing the security guards out. At the same time, Shan Anyang's two explosive packs took off from the earth slope at a very long distance and headed straight for the bomb site!

The security guard, restricted in his movement by two grenades, had no choice but to move out of the cover. But as soon as he came out, he saw Shan Anyang in the air. Shan Anyang's speed was really too fast. Even the weakened Ryze was still as powerful as ever in Shan Anyang's hands!

After the security guard's justice missed the first shot, he had no chance to fire a second shot. With the help of Dan Anyang's gun line, fpx's autumn simultaneously pulled into the bomb site and killed the security guard!

Although tex was playing a sentry position, he didn't want to do the regular sentry position play at all, and chose to take the attack head-on at the bomb site. However, facing the face-to-face lineup with Ryze on board, even a strong player like tex could only fall asleep!

Once the security guard who was guarding point C died, the blaster was successfully installed. Lev was trapped in a 4 vs 5 defense.
