The game may not go so smoothly. Every time you are given the last role to fill, the first thing to do is to understand the class. Most people are used to helping pick the support and top lane because the front line is not difficult, and the back line is most afraid of being targeted. In fact, this decision is a gamble. It is undeniable that marksmen always hope to drag the game to the fifth floor before picking a hero in order to protect themselves.
Thinking about it another way, the reality is that it's setting up a fixed output environment for the whole world, and letting the support cover the back so they at least know how to protect their teammates. The core of the team is left to be revealed later, but you're being forced to conform to the norm, becoming either a stationary marksman, a roaming marksman, or a mobile marksman. How are you supposed to survive against assassins, supports, and marksmen? That's much more difficult.
Filling in is like being a support, a lifeline. For example, in this case, the jungler is Da Siming, the marksman is Hou Yi, the mid laner is Wang Zhaojun, and the top laner is Cao Cao. The lineup reveals strong control capabilities. Before confirming the tank pick, check the enemy lineup: support is Da Qiao, the bottom laner is Gongsun Li, the jungler is Zhao Yun, the top laner is Xiang Yu, and the mid laner is Angela.
I should have seen Gongsun Li, and my instinctive reaction was to switch to Zhang Liang. Unfortunately, Da Qiao was mischievous and kept interrupting skills, and the rest were either control or burst damage dealers. Jin Chan was difficult to counter, so I stuck to the old strategy: Lian Po was the go-to choice, and Su Lie was also a good option. In this match, purely focusing on control and tanking damage, Su Lie had 13 assists, Cao Cao and Da Siming performed well, each securing a silver medal, resulting in a 20-9 score and a victory. This shows that filling in positions isn't complicated. If the options are fixed, then the lineup makes the decision questionable.
