Oh, and I forgot to mention -- if you're interested in the OSTs, you can find them here: https://soundcloud.com/christxina/sets/kings-avatar-ost (They are also available on Youtube if you search with the right names) Unfortunately, that playlist only includes the OSTs with lyrics (like the opening) 😣️ It doesn't include those 🔥️ instrument-only OSTs. These latter are pretty much the Holy Grail which many have been looking for, since Tencent has never released them officially.

2023-01-30 02:45:32 +0000 UTCThere was actually some effort by fans to recreate Glory, I heard talk of this on Discord. I think they already went a good way into the game design, coding, etc. Hell, for all I know, it's still ongoing.

2023-01-29 15:35:45 +0000 UTCTHat is SO COOL. If only there was an actual game with this kind of depth. WTF?! YE QIU is just a GOD. 🤣 Legendary. Hope we get to see him use it again in the future and school some punks. -Brandon

2023-01-29 06:24:24 +0000 UTCThis was a really cool move by Jiexi. My respect for him went up massively with so little time screen time. Quite efficiently written! -Brandon

2023-01-29 06:22:06 +0000 UTCAnd I apologize for the Guo Guo cringe here 😅️ in the LN, she was a massive Ye Qiu fan, but still not to the extent of pining over him like this. Certainly not going to the All-Stars to create a booth that gets trashed. IIRC, she's even more of a Su Mucheng fan than a Ye Xiu fan, especially with how she chose to play a Launcher, instead of Battle Mage. Much hyped for these All-Stars!!!

2023-01-29 03:43:18 +0000 UTCVoid Walk is indeed a smaller team than the likes of Tiny Herb and Tyranny, but not by much. I think they're still a top 8 team, regularly advancing into the playoffs. Incidentally, their core player and captain Li Xuan is a Ghostblade, the same class QYF has chosen. And I think you had this question a while back but I forgot to answer -- in the competition against Blue Rain, did Sun Xiang replicate Ye Xiu's trademark Dragon move? Battle Mages have several Dragon-based skills. The one Sun Xiang used episodes back against Blue Rain, is likely "Rising Dragon Soars The Sky". BUT the one that is Ye Xiu's trademark skill is a variant people called "Dragon Raises Its Head". He basically uses a combination of godly mechanics and decision-making, to direct the dragon's path outside of normal, making the skill a lot more dangerous as opponents can't predict it. So far, he's the only one capable of doing it, nobody's replicated it yet.

2023-01-29 03:34:36 +0000 UTCI forgot to mention earlier -- Sun Xiang is also sort-of a rookie himself. This is only his 2nd year in the Alliance -- and yet he already possesses mechanics godly enough that he's considered a feasible replacement for Ye Xiu. He's just that good, personality defects or not. (Experience, knowledge, etc. are a different matter) The Rookie Challenge you just watched, is one of the All-Star events. It allows pro rookies (< 2 years in the Alliance) to challenge any other pros. It's meant to be just a show match, each side playing well, but nothing too serious. But of course, per unspoken design, it can mean more than that for some people -- a way to display superiority over other pros, a way to show off one's skills or to inspire teammates as WJX has done here. This is one of my favourite WJX sequences 🤧️ The same self-sacrifice which caused him to abandon his Magician play-style years back, in order to collaborate more effectively with his team and bag them a Championship -- is the same energy that moves him now to inject confidence into shy Yingjie, even if it means lowering his own status a bit. (As YWZ noted, WJX deliberately didn't allocate all his available skill points, which means his skills didn't hit as hard as they should've. It was very subtle manipulation that could only be noticed by those with tons of experience keenly observing the damage being dealt.)
