The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

After the members of the Jinglan team passed by the crowd, Cui Qinchuan also came to Han Cheng. Beside him was Liu Ruchi, an enemy that Han Cheng and Qin Li had made last time.

Liu Ruchi's enigmatic smile sent a shiver down Han Cheng's spine. How terrifying! Looking at Cui Qinchuan, who had previously been indifferent to everything around him, even the most ardent fans, he couldn't help but scrutinize Han Cheng. Han Cheng guessed that Liu Ruchi had probably told him about his actions, even though he wasn't the mastermind. Sure enough, Cui Qinchuan's main focus was on Qin Li. Qin Li kept his eyes fixed on Cui Qinchuan without looking away, and Cui Qinchuan's gaze was equally sharp. After a moment of eye contact, the two parted ways.

According to the rules, everyone drew lots to form groups. Of course, the two teams were not grouped together, otherwise how would they compete? In the end, there can only be one champion. However, no matter who it is, it is an honor for the TOL club, since the two teams belong to the same club.

Team TOL was assigned to Group A, while Team TOM was assigned to Group B. Sun Hou glanced nervously at the teams in Group A. Hmm, Team Jinglan wasn't in it. The strongest teams in his group were Team Snow and Team Jiu.

"Hopefully we can take down the Jinglan team, then you guys beat all the teams in your group, and finally we'll play rock-paper-scissors between our two teams. Whoever wins wins, and the losing team just has to admit defeat. The championship goes to the winning team," Sun Hou said with a silly grin.

"Tsk tsk, Monkey, you're dreaming. Do you think the Jinglan Team is so easy to deal with?" Han Cheng questioned. "Besides, the rock-paper-scissors method to decide the winner is just too absurd..."

"Ahem, don't say it out loud," Sun Wukong whispered.

Soon, the pre-match preparations were basically complete, and it was time for the official match to begin.

This was a fairly formal competition, so everyone took it very seriously.

In the first match, it was TOL's turn to face a team they had never seen before.

"Frozen? Tsk tsk, is this what you call a team name..." The fat man looked helpless.

Han Cheng straightened his collar and began to concentrate on adjusting the equipment, wanting to devote himself entirely to the competition.

Xu Xiaomeng glanced at Han Cheng with a smile and said softly, "Little Orange, keep going! No matter what, I'll always support you!"

Han Cheng didn't speak, but nodded solemnly. Now that he had lost his superpowers, he would have to rely on Ye Bing's consciousness. As for Gu Haifeng, he didn't need to worry about him; he was safe. As for the fat man, Han Cheng glanced at his burly physique and figured that the fat man shouldn't disappoint him too much.

As for Xu Xiaomeng, Han Cheng felt he was in a similar situation now. Without his superpowers, he was like a tiger without wings. But tigers don't actually have wings, do they? And what's with this "like a tiger with wings" nonsense...?

Finally, as for Ye Bing, that's the one Han Cheng is least worried about, since Ye Bing is also stable.

Tsk tsk.

...Finally, we've entered the most anticipated, no, least anticipated, ban/pick screen...because choosing which heroes to ban is truly a brain-teaser...

"What should I ban?" Han Cheng muttered. The current version is a golden age of diverse heroes. The new hero Huang Zhong and Da Qiao alone occupy half the meta. Huang Zhong's ultimate has a huge range and high damage. In the late game, squishy heroes will be killed in just a few shots once they enter the circle. Although Huang Zhong is also squishy, ​​he has a speed boost and a shield. He gets stronger the longer he fights, no, he gets more powerful the longer he fights. Even without his ultimate, his damage is still explosive. After activating his ultimate, he can attack towers from outside the tower. As long as there are minions, he can push towers. In the mid-to-late game, Huang Zhong's tower-stealing ability is no less than that of high-mobility, high-burst assassin heroes like Sun Wukong and Han Xin. As long as he activates his ultimate, the turrets won't last long before they explode. And if someone comes to gank, he can just place a mine, activate his first skill, and run away. They can't catch him.

What, you really can't escape? No problem, activate your ultimate skill. If you have Berserk equipped, activate it too, and just fight him head-on. If your equipment isn't too bad, even if the opponent is a Monkey King with three hits, he might not be able to beat you.

Then there's Da Qiao, wow, she's practically a god-tier support. So much crowd control! Her first skill's knockback is already infuriating enough, but her third skill adds silence and slow, and the duration is quite long. But the most insane thing is her second skill, which sends teammates home. A carry can just escape right under everyone's noses, like a cooked duck flying away. Finally, there's Da Qiao's ultimate. She can initiate team fights from miles away, and the damage is quite high with a large range. It also increases attack speed within the area. Combined with Da Qiao's passive and the speed boost from her first skill, it's like wearing straw sandals and flying at lightning speed.

So, after a brief discussion, Gu Haifeng banned Da Qiao, while the opposing team banned Hua Mulan. When Miyamoto Musashi was reworked, there was a lot of criticism, but the current Miyamoto, once the backline is hit, even heroes like Han Xin with three dashes can't escape; he completely transforms into a mad dog, indiscriminately biting the backline. However, there's less criticism of Miyamoto Musashi now, as the playstyle has been developed, the techniques understood, and the hero's strengths discovered. But this reworked Hua Mulan is different. She hasn't received much criticism since her release. In her heavy sword form, Hua Mulan deals incredibly high damage, has super armor while casting skills, and crucially, has 60% damage reduction. What does 60% mean? If you activate the Pure Sky active skill at this time, even entering the fountain won't cause any damage. Furthermore, this heavy sword Hua Mulan's second skill, which pushes enemies forward, is even more useful than Damo's ultimate, easier to hit, and deals more damage.

Therefore, the new heroes are now exceptionally terrifying. Guan Yu and Luna are no longer must-ban or must-pick characters. "A thousand sails pass by the sunken ship, and ten thousand trees bloom before the withered tree," Han Cheng couldn't help but sigh.

Next, it's time to choose a hero. This is even more brain-burning than banning heroes, but the principle is simple: the hero chosen should be suitable for the whole team, and at the same time, it should be a hero that the user is good at, so as to maximize the advantages.

Gu Haifeng chose Huang Zhong, which was Han Cheng's suggestion. Huang Zhong can also play the top lane, and he is very strong in lane. Most importantly, he is awesome in the late game. Choosing Huang Zhong is the right choice.

Xu Xiaomeng chose Mi Yue, a hero known for her stability. In this game, Han Cheng decided to play a strong lineup, a lineup he came up with himself, which was both aggressive and steady.
