In a certain sense, Violeta was a formidable opponent.
But at the same time, defeating her would bring even greater satisfaction to Hattie!
The game went on for thirty-seven minutes.
By the thirtieth-minute mark, Evelyn's team began to sense they were losing ground.
The enemy team managed to secure two consecutive dragons. Despite Evelyn's team's strength, the opponents were well-acquainted with their tactics, resulting in significant setbacks across all three lanes, starting with the mid-lane collapsing first.
It appeared Violeta had identified the midplane's vulnerability and concentrated her efforts there, swiftly taking down the outer turret and invading their jungle.
In contrast, Violeta's team maintained stability across all three lanes. Zoren's mid-lane, with Violeta's assistance, became nearly unbeatable. Jasper also played steadily in the bottom lane, and Liam played in the top lane. Their coordination was flawless.
The crystal was pushed while Evelyn was still outside, trying to turn the tide. Unfortunately, they lost.
Game over.'
The two commentators excitedly summarised the entire match. The comment section in the live chat praised The Mighty Dragons!
On Evelyn's side, everyone's morale was somewhat low. They had thought they could smoothly advance to the finals, but unexpectedly, they were stopped in the semifinals.
They didn't let defeat get to them.
Therefore, when they stepped off the stage, Evelyn still cordially said to Violeta, "I hope you can make it to the finals. I'll be following your matches."
The host then spoke up, "Everyone shouldn't be disheartened. There's still a revival match after the semifinals, Evelyn! We look forward to you and your teammates returning to the revival match to continue bringing us exciting gameplay."
Teams that lost in the first round of the semifinals would enter the revival match.
So 'The Spring Blossom' would be the first terrifying force to secure a spot in the revival match.
Upon hearing this, Evelyn and the others grinned joyfully.
"We'll be back!"
As the two teams passed Hattie, Evelyn heard her disdainful mockery.
"How could she be so powerful? Turns out she's worthless."
Evelyn stopped in her tracks upon hearing Hattie's words.
Her narrow eyes glinted with a hint of menace as she stared at Hattie.
However, only Evelyn heard Hattie's words. Hence, the nearby staff were puzzled when Evelyn halted, saying, "Evelyn, please hurry down. The second team is about to go on stage."
Her teammates looked at her, touching her shoulder, thinking she was hesitant to leave the arena.
"Let's go. We still have the revival match," someone said.
