Chapter 248: Laning against a professional player, 46% win rate
The atmosphere of the event was instantly brought to a climax, which was exactly the result the organizers wanted.
The reason they revealed Ye Lan and Lin Xueyao's amazing relationship at the beginning was to liven up the atmosphere.
This way, even if the later activities are boring and disappointing, it won't affect everyone's impression of this New Year's greeting show.
At least, they've had their fun.
Ye Lan, with a dark expression, swept her unfriendly gaze over Tian Yun and the other guests one by one.
Damn it.
A group of superficial brothers.
Such a big thing has been kept from me, the person directly involved, for so long, it almost made me wet my pants.
It's like the school organizes an open-book exam, and everyone's answers are correct except for mine. Who could accept that?
When Ye Lan publicly announced her relationship, the happiest person was undoubtedly Lin Xueyao.
Her expression was somewhat pleased, and her clear eyes reflected the stage, which seemed to be occupied only by Ye Lan.
He was the only one in her eyes.
.........
After the presentation, the familiar activities began. Due to suggestions from Ye Lan and others, the original activities were changed.
"The next ten guests will be divided into two groups for a 5v5 battle. We have provided two options: one is the streamer team vs. the professional team, and the other is for the captains to choose their teammates in a one-on-one match."
"Everyone can pick up their phones and scan the QR code at the bottom of the screen to vote on the two activity proposals. We will determine the activity proposal based on the number of votes."
"Five minutes allotted, start now!"
The screen behind Tianyun suddenly flickered, and amidst the interplay of light and shadow, a black and white QR code slowly appeared.
Upon hearing this, the audience members all took out their phones and scanned the QR code with WeChat.
After scanning the QR code, you will find a very basic voting interface with only two options: Option 1 and Option 2. Each person is limited to one vote.
After listening to Tianyun's explanation, Ye Lan's face immediately darkened.
Why can't we just use the second option?
A top-tier expert like him would definitely be someone both captains would be vying for.
They insisted on presenting two options for the audience to choose from.
Yes, this can give the audience a greater sense of participation, thereby enlivening the atmosphere of the event.
But those who enjoy watching the drama unfold often choose the worst option.
As expected, when Ye Lan heard the whispers of the audience below the stage, her anxiety finally subsided.
"So, which one should we choose, Option One or Option Two?"
"It's definitely Option 1. Brother Ye will be dragging two top chefs, Lü Dehua and Zhang Daxian, along with a heavy load. Just thinking about it makes me laugh."
“I also think Option 1 is better. If we choose Option 2, all the experts are on the same side, so there’s no suspense at all.”
"You all voted for Option 1? Then I'll do it too."
...........
Option 1 quickly took the lead with a large number of votes.
Ye Lan sighed. There's a saying online that's really true: your happiness is built on the suffering of others.
Ye Lan glanced at Lü Dehua on her left and then at Zhang Daxian on her right.
Suddenly, I felt like I had two heads to crack.
How can we win with these two burdens in our hands?!
It felt like a three-against-seven situation from the very beginning.
Han Han and Guying also felt that victory was hopeless.
Although both of them are quite skilled at the game, they would definitely lose more often than they win when facing top professional players.
In addition, with Ye Lan, a top-tier jungler, on the team, Han Han and Guying have to give way and play other positions, which prevents them from unleashing their full potential.
With teammates who are too unskilled and no one available to play their preferred role, the two have no hope of winning whatsoever.
Ye Lan also felt that her chances of winning were slim.
That's right, he did lead four random players to victory against the professional Wolves team.
At that time, he used every possible means, taking advantage of favorable timing, location, and people, and only then did he manage to defeat the Chongqing Wolves.
At that time, the five members of the Wolves team had been worn down by ten teams without any rest, and their condition was less than half of what it usually was. In addition, with the cover provided by the lights, Ye Lan gained an early advantage and completely disrupted the Wolves team's rhythm.
The Wolves players were overwhelmed by their own excitement and were too eager to turn the tide, which led to more and more mistakes, allowing Ye Lan to win by sheer luck.
If the Wolves team were to face the opponent with all five members in perfect form, Ye Lan and his team would undoubtedly lose.
At this point, some people might say, "Can't we re-release it one more time?"
Just kidding, last time it was because the organizer was a school, not an esports stadium, so many things weren't as detailed.
For esports pros like the Wolves, it feels like playing football on a basketball court.
However, this time the organizers are the official Honor of Kings game and the Tiger Shark live streaming platform, and the venue chosen is the Shanghai Esports Arena, where many city-level esports competitions and university esports competitions are held.
Although it's not as professional as a real competition arena, it's still much more professional than the school gymnasium we used last time.
In other words, Ye Lan's unorthodox methods are completely useless here.
Without these things, Ye Lan's dream of defeating five professional players was completely unrealistic, and his win rate plummeted to rock bottom.
"Is there any way to overcome a stronger opponent with a weaker one?" Ye Lan pondered, resting her chin on her hand.
The five minutes were up quickly, and the first option was far ahead with half the votes in favor.
Tianyun picked up the microphone with a grin, facing the guests, and said, "After a fair, just, and open vote by our audience, we have decided to adopt the first event plan."
"That is, the streamer team vs. the professional team!"
As soon as Tianyun finished speaking, the ten people automatically split into two groups.
However, they differed greatly in terms of their overall presence.
Yinuo, Fly, Menglei, Xiaopang, and Huahai held their heads high, as if victory was already assured.
Conversely, Ye Lan, Zhang Daxian, Lü Dehua, Han Han, and Guying were filled with resentment, estimating that they could support several evil sword immortals.
After all, the strength of this faction is far too different.
An incredible Elo matchmaking system.
"The two teams will now have ten minutes for discussion and a break. Please discuss carefully and hopefully we can deliver a spectacular match."
Tianyun then left the stage.
Dehua and the others surrounded Ye Lan, asking, "What should we do, Brother Ye? Are you confident you can beat your opponent?"
Ye Lan rolled her eyes. "What if I said I was 40% sure I could kick you out?"
Dehua looked excited. "If they're 40% sure they can get rid of me, then with me on the team, it's a sure win!"
"Now there's not even a tenth left."
Ye Lan glanced at Dehua speechlessly, wondering what the other man's skin was made of, how could it be so thick?
"So what do we do now? We can't just surrender, can we?"
Zhang Daxian spread his hands, a look of helplessness appearing on his slightly chubby face.
He and Dehua are just entertainment anchors; their shows are entertaining and popular with viewers and fans, but their gaming skills are actually quite average.
Against professional players, it's about 40/60.
Giving away six kills in four minutes is already a very conservative estimate.
