The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

"Hehe, it's okay. Since the Jinglan team dares to make this choice, it means they are not worried about being targeted at all, because they will make it impossible for the opponent to target them!" The commentator with the unorthodox hairstyle was still a staunch supporter of the Jinglan team, which made many people in the audience very dissatisfied.

"Damn it, soon this bastard will realize just how stupid his desperate efforts to support the Jinglan team really are!" Sun Hou said indignantly.

"Alright, what's with the anger? They're so strong, they'll prove it with their own strength in a moment!" Xing Qi said. Sun Hou realized he had just swore, smiled sheepishly, nodded to Xing Qi, and said nothing more.

On stage, Han Cheng remained calm, casually picking Luna. Was he courting death?

Zhao Yun, Lanling King, Hua Mulan, and even her own Han Xin—aren't they all wielding a multitude of crowd control abilities? Moreover, many of these are hard crowd control abilities, unlike soft crowd control like slows and silences. For Luna, they would be absolutely fatal!

Confidence is good, but excessive confidence is arrogance. If you magnify yourself infinitely, you will eventually explode and destruction will be quite normal!

"The spear thunders, illuminating my very soul!" Zhao Yun, clad in white, suddenly appeared, spear in hand, his heroic figure striking. To be honest, Zhao Yun has truly fallen from grace. He's not only bad at jungling, but also weak in the top lane. He lacks tankiness, his damage isn't as explosive as before, and crucially, his ultimate's crowd control isn't as effective. He's completely gone from being Tencent's favorite son to a neglected one, much like how Tencent initially showered Zhao Yun with benefits, only to suddenly realize he was a creation of a rival. Damn it, he has to be nerfed!

But what does it matter if it's weakened? As long as the mechanics remain unchanged, that man clad in dragon armor, charging forward fearlessly, will always be the faith of many players, and also the faith of Gu Haifeng!

Han Cheng nodded, making a decisive choice. He removed Hua Mulan now, since Hua Mulan was the only popular hero in his lineup, and even Sun Shangxiang wasn't as popular anymore. Even if he didn't pick her, the opponent might not pick her anyway.

Whether before or after the rework, Mulan is a hero who requires a high level of skill. Many people think that the new version of Mulan is not that difficult to operate. It's just that she has more skills. In light sword mode, you can use the second skill first, roll over with the first skill, activate the ultimate to switch swords, and then use the second and first skills combo.

What many don't realize is that Mulan is actually quite difficult to play now. The combo above is just the basics. Mulan's output methods also include basic attacks. In addition to high-burst skills, you must constantly use basic attacks to deal damage. Ever heard of five attacks in one second? The combo sequence is similar to the one above, but you need to add a basic attack in the middle of the ultimate skill. After completing a skill combo, add another basic attack. In short, it looks simple, but it still requires a certain level of hand speed.

Many people can actually perform five attacks per second like Hua Mulan, but it's not truly five attacks per second because it takes them more than a second to execute the combo. Ye Bing, on the other hand, can execute the combo in less than a second, which requires fast hand speed. Of course, it's best to build a small attack speed item to ensure you can land more basic attacks. However, Hua Mulan doesn't really need attack speed; you don't need to build large attack speed items, or you can even skip them altogether.

After a tense discussion, their lineups were quickly finalized, and the lineups for both sides were quickly determined. The TOL team got the lineup they wanted: Zhao Yun, Lanling King, Han Xin, Sun Shangxiang, and Hua Mulan!

It's clear that the TOL team members all have expressions of joy on their faces, because their lineup for this game can be described as an all-hero lineup! What does that mean? It means that they've brought out their best, most proficient, and most frequently used heroes. However, there's a slight drawback, because their main heroes might not be the heroes they actually play in their respective positions, so the lineup might feel a bit unbalanced.

Take Lanling King as an example. This strategy only existed in Season 1, when Honor of Kings had just been released. Many strategies were copied from League of Legends, including assassin mid-lane. However, assassin mid-lane has gradually become unsuitable for the new version because it lacks magic damage output, such as AOE damage and magic damage. These are very useful in late-game team fights, otherwise, it's impossible to win team fights because without a mage, it's difficult to damage the enemy's heavily armored front line...

Therefore, assassin mid laners have gradually fallen out of favor, and mage mid laners have now become the most legitimate choice.

However, Xu Xiaomeng's move clearly turned their TOL team into an all-physical lineup, lacking a front line and becoming a pure melee team.

Therefore, unlike the TOL team, the Jinglan team found it quite amusing. Bringing out a melee-focused team to play the final game against them? Are they asking for it?!

"Hmph, I thought they'd come up with some powerful lineup to counter us. A melee-heavy team? Hahaha, take this Zhao Yun for example, we don't even see him in the jungle anymore, and he's playing top lane? And this Lanling King, he's playing mid lane, let's see what they do when our front line builds up armor. And this Hua Mulan, she can support..." Mang sneered, his face full of confidence and disdain. Just because you beat us in one game, you think you're invincible? Hmph, then in this game, we'll teach you arrogant brats a lesson with the attitude of kings, and show you what a true king is!

Even Lin Xi, who didn't quite agree with Mang, showed a strange expression. They really wanted to fight us with such a lineup? That didn't make sense... Could it be some kind of strategy? But what kind of strategy could such a lineup with so many weaknesses and shortcomings possibly pull off?

The reaction from the audience was huge. Even many viewers who had always supported the TOL team were confused, and some even started criticizing the TOL team...
