DOTA's Madness Chapter 57

Chapter 57: Stalling Tactic

A small-scale team battle between the two parties, in the end turned into a one-on-one.

If Jakiro could hold until Pandare's ultimate ended, he would undoubtedly win. If not, the Scourge would suffer a big loss in this battle. Fortunately, Nerubian a.s.sa.s.sin who originally followed Night Stalker to the bot lane saw that the situation was not good, and directly chose to TP to help.

With his help, the Scourge killed the Panda Brewmaster.

Exchanging two to three, it was originally profitable, but among the dead heroes was the late carry, so it could only say that was a tie.

Before Jakiro could say anything, Night Stalker, who went to the bottom lane to gank the opponent's late carry, gave another life. He originally wanted to act with the Nerubian a.s.sa.s.sin, but Nerubian a.s.sa.s.sin suddenly went away, thus he had to face Dark Ranger alone. Normally, this was nothing at all. With the strength of Night Stalker at night, he could kill her by himself. But in the critical moment, Rylai came to help Traxex!

Under deceleration of Frost Arrow and Frostbite, Night Stalker could only watch Traxex, who had a little HP left, performed an anti-kill!

Although each sides lost three heroes, Scourge's late carry Dragon Knight has been killed. On the other hand, Sentinel's late carry Traxex got a kill again. The advantages of Sentinel began to become apparent!

…

The base of Scourge.

Zhao Dingguo, who had just been resurrected, bought a TP and was ready to continue to make money on the top lane.

The first tower on Sentinel's top lane only had a little HP left, he was sure to take it down.

At this moment, Earthshaker and Night Stalker have also been resurrected. Probably feel that the situation is not good, neither of them was in a good mood. Coincidentally, at this time, Jakiro also returned to the Fountain to regen. Seeing that his teammates were almost all gathered, Zhao Dingguo manipulated Dragon Knight to walk to the center of the base, as he felt it necessary to say something. Fighting with the current morale, the result was likely to get worse and worse!

“Hey, wait a minute! Let me say something!”

Zhao Dingguo spoke in the voice channel, and when Scourge heroes heard their own core hero speak, several of them also became quiet.

“Our situation in the early stage of this game is indeed a little worse, and the development of the Dark Ranger is really good. But how about that? The battle is far from over, we still have many opportunities! On the output of DPS alone, I may not be able to compare to her, but you should also know that the strongest Dragon Knight is a wave of team battles with a level 3 ultimate. Even if it's a bit disadvantageous in the early stage, as long as the high ground is not broken, the match hasn't been set. When the opportunity comes, winning one team battle and we can reverse the table! ”

“Really?” Nerubian a.s.sa.s.sin doubted.

He has played DOTA for a short time, many things were really unclear. Just being told by Zhao Dingguo, the anxiety and lack of confidence in his heart had dissipated a lot. With Zhao Dingguo's goal of “Stalling to Level 16”, he only needed to work hard towards this goal! The other works were what the late carry should do!

With a specific goal to work hard, Earthshaker and Night Stalker also felt refreshed and asked in unison: “What should we do?”

Zhao Dingguo combined some of the common strategies that he had mastered all day before, and came up with an idea: “I think you can try to gank Traxex as much as possible, but you don't necessarily have to kill her, as long as you can make her unable to farm money with ease. Then, the heroes of Sentinel will devote a lot of energy to squatting her. I'll continuously change the lane and farm the money alone, strive to make Black King Bar (BKB) before level 16, and then we gather to push! Remember, you don't have to fight for real, just retreat when you see the situation is bad, the most important thing about this tactic is to stall! "

No need to fight, just pretending to stall and delay time!

Several heroes of the Scourge thought about it a bit, and they understood Zhao Dingguo's tactical system. They whispered for a while, then a.s.sembled some new equipment and left.

Zhao Dingguo also went to the top lane alone, and patiently swiped money.

He now was equipped with Power Treads, Soul Ring, Ring of Health, not far from the more advanced equipment Vanguard. If Vanguard was out, his toughness would reach another step. In the future, he needed to make a BKB, which could not only increase the strength and attack power but also temporarily grant the state of magic immunity. In that case, he did not need to be afraid of heroes such as Bloodseeker, Rylai, or Sven!

Zhao Dingguo's teammates were fairly obedient, and within a minute, the four heroes set off.

The Nerubian a.s.sa.s.sin started with his ultimate, walking in the front to scout, others followed behind. It's a pity that they didn't meet Traxex, but they Sven who was farming alone in the jungle!

There was no need to say more about it, Sven quickly fell to the ground!

After killing one person, the courage of the Scourge heroes was raised a little more.

They did not leave but continued to linger on the bot lane. Such an action naturally attracted the Sentinel heroes.

“Are they going to push the bot lane? Want to take the initiative to fight with us?”

Dark Ranger, while guessing the intention of the Scourge, called the rest of her teammates to prepare for a battle. She had good equipment now, if fighting a group battle under the tower, it's most likely their victory!

However, the heroes of the Scourge didn't rush as she thought, but were leaving immediately. After a while to gather forward, it seemed that they wanted to start pushing. But before the heroes of Sentinel countered, they dropped the fight and turned back after releasing one or two skills. With Earthshaker's Fissure, Sentinel couldn't master the rhythm of the battle, as they couldn't counterattack actively. After all, the creva.s.se lasted eight seconds. When the creva.s.se disappeared, the hero of the Scourge disappeared without a trace!

This procrastinating tactic did cause great annoyance to the Sentinel heroes.

While taking this opportunity, Zhao Dingguo re-pushed the line to the first tower, then opened Elder Dragon Form.

Transforming into a Green Dragon, Dragon Knight's had Corrosive Breath, which made it's much faster to destroy the defense tower. Not long after, Zhao Dingguo got the reward of destroying the defense tower. His teammates also received 200 gold each. With the money from pushing the tower and several waves of soldiers, Zhao Dingguo successfully bought a Vitality Booster worth 1100 gold coins to form Vanguard.

Vanguard: Increases the maximum HP limit by 250 points, increases the HP recovery speed by 6 points/second. Gives a 70% chance to block 40 attack damage if the wielder is melee, or a 70% chance to block 20 attack damage if the wielder is ranged.

According to Old Li, in the BG platform of previous years, the attributes of Vanguard were stronger than this. Although weakened, the effectiveness of Vanguard could not be ignored.

With this thing, Zhao Dingguo's heart was settled.

Now that if Sentinel wanted to kill him, at least two or even three people must be there to be sure, otherwise, he could calmly deal with it!

The next step was to work for the Black King Bar.

This was a piece of equipment that took into account both survival and output. The most important thing was its skill Avatar, which granted the magic immunity. After all, almost every one of the Sentinel side has CC skills. Without such a piece of equipment, he was afraid he couldn't stand when the team fights occurred. Without the tanker and late carry, it would be difficult for them to win!

By this time, Sven had already been resurrected.

Under the instructions of the Dark Ranger, he came to the top lane to trouble Zhao Dingguo, at least keeping him from pushing him to the second tower.

Seeing this guy appear, Zhao Dingguo didn't clash with him, and directly TP to the middle lane. It happened that the Sentinel's soldiers had been almost cleared here, so Zhao Dingguo released a Breathe Fire and started pushing. If he's lucky, it's not impossible to take down the first tower in the middle!

Zhao Dingguo's tactics started to achieve obvious results!
