Chapter 118: Chapter 117: The Players’ Strong Opinion!

Why wasn’t he finishing the match, what was he waiting for? With the advantage that he had, he just had to attack and win the game!

It didn’t take long before the Guard Towers were finished.

The Gryphons that were blocking the Guard Towers were now gone, and it was only then that the audience and observer realised what the Guard Towers spelt out.

The observer went silent.

The chat went wild.

“What? What am I watching!”

“My goodness, this is so humiliating!”

“He’s really that good!”

“Wow, I feel like Nightwind-god is about to break down.”

The Guard Towers in the middle of the map spelt out two letters: NB![1]

It even came with the exclamation mark!

With more than three hundred thousand viewers, the chat was filled with laughter.

Nightwind also saw the message using his Blademaster, and was so angry that the Blademaster charged right into the towers and used Bladestorm!

Most of the Guard Towers were destroyed, but Blademaster also died in the process.

Nightwind typed out GG and quit the game.

That was infuriating!

Shameless!

Following the chat, Nightwind’s inbox also exploded

The chat was filled with discussion of the game, and many were PMing Nightwind.

“Nightwind-god, were you playing seriously?”

“Nightwind-god that wasn’t like how you usually play!”

“Say something!”

Nightwind was speechless as that match was too humiliating. Weren’t these people adding salt on the wound before he could even calm down after that loss?

He couldn’t deny it as many knew that it was his alt account. He couldn’t say he wasn’t playing seriously either, who’s fault would it be that he got destroyed because he wasn’t playing seriously?

I’ll just ignore it!

There was a second wave of this incident in the forums once the replay was released, talking trash about those who didn’t believe that Silent couldn’t beat high skilled players.

“Silent can’t beat pros? What is this? Nightwind-god got bullied the same way the others did!”

“Destroying Nightwind while playing random, are you guys convinced?”

“Those who said that it was an AI, have you seen an AI that would arrange towers to spell out NB with an exclamation mark?

It didn’t take long before the S-Dog gang retaliated.

“You’re proud of that ugly win? The number of towers are ridiculous!”

“Yeah, Nightwind was trapped, play head on if you dare!”

“That’s just playing against the spirit of the game!”

“But I feel that Humans are crazy, I didn’t know you could play it like that. I never realised Towers were too strong, I’ll go try it out now.”

Somewhere still trying to argue while others were investigating the mass tower strategy and trying it out in ranked.

There were many high skilled players who found out that this strategy was actually really good!

Basically, on larger maps, train Archmage first to secure as many mines as possible, then invest that gold into building towers around every mine. Afterwards, skip over mid tier units and go right to Gryphons and Dragonhawks, defeating the opponent by winning the war of attrition.

This strategy didn’t just work against Orcs, but Night Elves and Undead as well with minimal changes.

The Human players were excited to see the rise of the Human race!

After beating Nightwind’s alt account, Chen Mo continued queueing. The opponents afterwards were all much worse than Nightwind, steamrolling them without any special strategies.

He played until he reached thirty-seven hundred points and couldn’t find any more matches.

Chen Mo decided to call it as he was tired.

Although Silent was now offline, the reign of terror never stopped in ranked.

There was a new wave of tower building strategies that night. Every Human one would come across would most certainly be using that strategy, and even non-Human mains were also practicing the same strategy.

The worst thing was that this strategy was used by low and high ranked players alike!

The lower ranked players weren’t mechanically gifted enough, and couldn’t beat Blademaster and Death Knight. What should they do? Build towers!

Higher ranked players were good mechanically, meaning that building towers had more of an advantage. Build towers!

Who knew how many Blademasters and Demon Hunters were shot down by Guard Towers that night.

The other three races were groaning with hatred.

Early the next day.

Su Jinyu was frantically telling Chen Mo, “Manager, it’s not good. There are many players saying in the forums that Humans’ tower building strategy is too strong, and needs to be nerfed.”

Qian Kun agreed, “Yeah, manager. It seems a bit strong. Should I reduce some of the HP of Guard Towers? Or maybe build time? Or both?”

Chen Mo shook his head, “There’s no need to nerf.”

“But manager, there are many players who play other races that are complaining, wouldn’t that affect our sales?” asked Qian Kun

Chen Mo was speechless, “You’re just worried about the sales?! Don’t worry, it’s fine. I guarantee you that they’ll shut up after three days.”

Su Jinyu didn’t buy it, “Really? Are you sure, manager?”

Chen Mo nodded, “Absolutely I’m sure, just ignore them. Oh, actually, they’re feeding me afterall, I’ll give them some attention through Weibo.”

Chen Mo opened Weibo to discover there were hundreds of tags last night wanting the Human Guard Towers to be nerfed.

Chen Mo sent out a Weibo: “The stats for Guard Towers are fine, there will be no nerfs. All the other races have solutions to that strategy, please complete the assignment individually.”

It didn’t take long before the comments rolled in.

“Chen Mo! I guarantee you I won’t kill you if you show yourself! Are you balancing the game with your feet? How could you say it’s fine when it’s so overpowered!”

“If you can’t nerf its health, could you at least remove the mini-towers?”

“Yeah, it’s like a porcupine once it’s built up! It’s not fair!”

“Can you buff the Undead??”

“Take a look at Silent’s match yesterday. They destroyed Nightwind-god just using Towers! How is that fun to watch!”

“AAAAAAAA, I can’t take it anymore! I’m going to the experience store to pummel Chen Mo! Anyone with me?”

“Previous poster, I’m in!”

The players were angry, but Chen Mo wasn’t going to budge.

However, he was worried that the players would come and gank him. He decided it would be better to hide out in the internet cafe for now.

Geez, these players are too soft. You can’t even defend against a few Guard Towers?

Are you guys still playing once the demolition strategy gets discovered?
