"What is really the plan of the Chronos squad?"

Such a question crossed everyone's mind after the entire players scattered to different locations.

Even the commentators assumed that they would see both sides as it would clash eventually after Claire's assassin lured the four players of the Lee Gaming squad.

They were speculating and speaking to the audience about Claire luring the enemy to the bottom lane for their team to gather and prepare for an ambush.

But now, every speculation they made was incorrect. They felt slightly shy about the outcome.

There was actually no ambush arranged by the Chronos squad!

Sofia's tank and Stephen's marksman had fled the bottom lane after their enemies arrived and teleporting to a different lane.

And the one who had lured the enemy was already positioning to a far distance top lane!

"Alright, alright, the Chronos squad is hard to predict, folks!!! The game is still pretty relaxed! It is only an early game though... so, it's clear that the Chronos squad will go after the late game. They cannot fight the Lee Gaming squad now since their EXP level gap had kept raising! What will be the Lee Gaming squad do now?" the younger commentator continued to narrate.

At that moment, the audience was also baffled.

The perspective on the large screen showed Joey's support and Claire's assassin moving forward.

The two characters were now trying to push the top lane...

"Could it be tower stealing? Is this the plan of the Chronos squad? To gather all the opponents in one area while one member would destroy the tower from a farthest lane?" an audience on the backside of the bleacher could not help but scratched his head and wondered about the tactics that the Chronos squad was using.

Indeed, such kind of actions from Claire's gameplay could be viewed as her trying to get all the attention of the enemy so that the top lane would be pushed by Joey.

The only flaw for this analysis was that it was too early for the squad to deploy a tower stealing tactic.

The damage of their characters would not be enough to push a tower yet.

There was no way for their group to be able to push, destroy and steal a single tower!

"Maybe the Chronos squad thinks that they can steal the top lane tower and push on there. Ahh, it's impossible! Although they have performed well on the elimination round, they are still a newbie!" the person sitting next to the man who tried to imply the tactics of the Chronos squad immediately reacted.

"Yes, I am not sure now! I can see that the plan of the Lee Gaming squad was to take a first blood! But for the Chronos squad scattering just like that, I can only tell that they are avoiding the clash! Why did they unite in the bottom lane only to separate also?" another audience joined analyzing Claire's decision.

The Lee Gaming squad mage and fighter went to Joey and Claire to face them on the top lane. They have first teleported to their base to regain their mana as they had been firing their attacks which made their mana fully used.

"Damn, we just consumed our mana for nothing! We did not kill the mage and we also did not kill the assassin!" the mage user of the Lee Gaming squad scornfully murmured.

The faces of the Lee Gaming squad players were full of annoyance after realizing that they just wasted their time chasing the Chronos assassin for nothing!

"The mage went to the bottom lane. The tank and marksman to the middle lane. And their assassin and support are on the top lane...What are they planning? What is this change of formation?" Brent also muttered while trying to understand the movements of the Chronos squad. He sighed and was slightly annoyed after realizing that he could not see through the formation of his opponent.

In the end, Brent moved towards their jungle area and venting all his annoyance to all the NPCs. His rapid bullets quickly ended the life of the robotic NPCs.

The Lee Gaming tank went straight to the middle lane trying to prevent the opponents from pushing. After Brent finished his farming, he also joined the middle lade.

Now, the role guarding the middle lane was mirrored.

William's tank and Brent's marksman vs Sofia's Tank and Stephen's marksman.

Both threw their skills but also did not really pursue on the kills. It was a totally passive-aggressive gameplay where they only cleared the creeps and then went back to the jungle area once more.

Back on the top lane, as the two players from the Lee Gaming squad marched, Claire had crossed the river and moved to their jungle area to wait for the arrival of her enemies.

Because of the naturally high agility of the assassins in the game, Claire had been used to roaming around. It did not bother her if whether the place is the territory of the enemy or theirs. All she would do was to hide on the grass and find the perfect timing to kill.

She glanced at the timer for her skills to fully cool down.

Once the flicker skill became available, she immediately pressed it. Her slender fingers slide easily on her phone while the assassin directly moved towards the mage of the Lee Gaming squad!

The background sound of the flicker alerted the two near enemies again but Claire was no longer reluctant to use her other assassin's skills.

This time, she was no longer too cautious of attacking the mage opponent as there were only two enemies on their lanes. She was certain that Joey can assist her attack. And they would get the first blood!

As Claire's assassin reached the mage, she immediately followed to activate her first skill and silenced the opponent.

In an instant, the mage was unable to move nor use any of its skills. Then Claire activated her ultimate skills inflicting 75% of the mage's HP.

After the silenced effect wore off, the mage hastily moved backward and retreated seeing that she had a quarter of HP left. If she had not used a character upgrade, her EXP would probably be just the same level as Claire. Her character would be dead by Claire's HP!

Luckily, she got the skin upgrade benefit.

The mage user immediately used her second skill to stun Claire's assassin and also utilized her ultimate.

Claire was also immobilized for a couple of seconds after she failed to dodge the second skill of her opponent.

By the time she was struck with the ultimate of the mage, Joey's support already arrived to heal her!

The exchange of skill was executed beautifully but when it comes to agility, Claire's assassin was more fast than the Lee Gaming squad mage.

Seeing that the assassin's HP became full, the mage user hissed and stomped her feet. Since her companion was a fighter, her HP won't be healed!

"F*CK! This support is really annoying!" the mage user glared at her mobile device. She was aware that it was ideal to kill the support first before the assassin. But since her HP was already 25%, she could not attack the support anymore.

The mage decided to move her character back to the base. For some reason, she did not opt to teleport. Instead, she just maneuvered her character to walk back to their base.

Unfortunately for her, she did not expect that Claire already activated her invisibility and pursue her...

Once the Chronos assassin's presence was fully concealed, her speed became faster than the normal movement.

Claire took a deep breath and a wicked smile appeared on her face.

"You will be the first blood!" she stated and quickly chased the Lee Gaming squad mage!

After five seconds of chasing, the cooldown of her skills was also done.

As the assassin arrived, she immediately dashed forward and used her first skill to silence the enemy again. The next combo of ultimate and basic attacks followed... completely ending the life of the mage!

First Blood!

The audience instantly applauded.

For a newbie, Claire had been displaying bolder gameplays every round she played.

The first kills she had done were all satisfactory to watch.

"Good job, Claire!" Joey muttered and was already behind Claire.

The two started to retreat when the fighter opponent chased back Claire's assassin.

On the other side, the tank and marksman opponents were about to circle them to intercept their route.

But before they could block Claire's assassin, Sofia's tank and Stephen's marksman were prepared to a full clash!

Seeing that there were four characters of the Chronos squad in the distance, the three players of the Lee Gaming squad quickly retreated.

If only it was just the assassin of the Chronos squad, they can surely kill her.

But it was just a wishful thinking from them since there would be no way that the Chronos squad would not back up their assassin.

"First blood goes to the Chronos squad folks! The assassin slays the mage!" the quick voice of the older commentator reverberated at every corner of the gym.
