On July 14th, the voting for the 10th Season All-Star officially ended. The League carefully checked the vote counts, and after ensuring there was no malicious vote manipulation, they finally announced the list of players selected for this year's All-Star.
Team Beimu had three members selected: Zhao Xin'an, Zhao Xinping, and Sean. All three players ranked in the top ten in popularity. Beimu already had a large fan base, so voting these three into the All-Star was within everyone's expectations.
Team Jingzhe's Fang Zhengqing, Xie Yuan, and Li Yunmo were also selected. Among them, Fang Fang and Yuan Yuan were veteran gods with many die-hard fans, appearing in the All-Star almost every year. Li Yunmo, as a top-tier support in the league, naturally had a certain level of popularity, so his selection was also a normal result.
Fans of Team Tianhuan were very supportive, voting Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang into the top five and collectively dumping votes on the last day to send Qu Jiang into the All-Star as well.
Although Cheng Xing and Old Qin didn't make it into the All-Star, Xiao Xing was still a rookie with many opportunities in the future. Old Qin had always been indifferent to fame, even helping Qu Jiang solicit votes on Weibo himself, calling on everyone to vote for Qu Jiang, so the fans didn't vote for him.
In addition, Binghun's Captain Chen Qianhua; Huowen's Captain Zhou Jiawen and Jungler A'Yan; Yueying's Top Laner Xu Zhuo and Marksman Xie Weiyu; as well as the Captain of Luoshendian, the first place in Group A, Liu Luo, were also selected for the All-Star list.
On the evening of the 14th, the League personally called all the players selected for the All-Star to notify them and pulled everyone into the [Gods' War S10 All-Star] group chat.
After all 15 people had joined, League staff posted a few announcements in the group—
"Hello, gods. I am Xiao Ru, the player manager for this year's All-Star. For this All-Star, the League has arranged for the Huaxing Hotel [Navigation Address]. Please report to the hotel front desk before 3:00 PM on July 16th. At 5:30 PM on July 16th, we have arranged a welcome dinner for everyone at the restaurant on the 3rd floor of the hotel. After dinner, at 7:30 PM, we need to arrive at the venue on time. The All-Star officially begins at 8:00 PM."
"Regarding attire, it is required to be clean and tidy; shorts and slippers are not allowed. Since we are e-sports players, there is no need to wear suits to play games; everyone can be casual. This All-Star lasts for three days, so just bring three days' worth of clothes. Food and accommodation are uniformly arranged by the League. For those coming from out of town, please contact me in advance to tell me your flight number or high-speed rail number, and I will send someone to pick you up."
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen "Received" messages were posted in the group.
Zhao Xin'an said, "Our flight is on the afternoon of the 15th, TC76893."
Fang Zhengqing: "We also arrive at 8 PM tomorrow night. Please arrange airport pickup; thank you for your hard work."
The group began to tally everyone's arrival times and flight numbers.
The Tianhuan Team's base was in the Imperial Capital, not too far from the hotel, so they could go there on the afternoon of the 16th.
At noon on the 16th, Chi Shuo and the other two ate some lunch casually in the cafeteria. Team leader Tang Can proactively asked, "Do you need me to send a car to take you there?" Chi Shuo said, "No need to trouble Sister Tang, I'll drive myself."
He had a private car parked in the Tianhuan base parking lot, and he would usually drive himself out for personal matters. For this All-Star, there were only 3 of them, so there was no need to trouble the team to send a special car for pick-up and drop-off.
Chi Shuo drove himself, taking Qu Jiang and Ye Shaoyang to report to the hotel.
This was Ye Shaoyang's first time participating in the All-Star of this world. The All-Star in his previous life had many solo (1v1 duel) events, but the All-Star in this world was more like a grand gathering of high-popularity players, and the rules were quite different. The singles and doubles competitions were classified as "World Invitational Tournaments" and would be held after the All-Star ended.
Chi Shuo had won the S6 Individual Tournament championship, and Ye Shaoyang also wanted to try participating this year. But for now, let's get through the All-Star first.
Ye Shaoyang sat in the back row with Qu Jiang and asked curiously, "What events will there be in this All-Star?"
Qu Jiang said, "Last year it was a team confrontation, 5v5 tower pushing mode. The rules were similar to usual matches. Everyone drew lots to decide teams. Captain Chi and I drew the same team last year."
Ye Shaoyang hadn't watched last year's All-Star and asked, "Random draw matches, is there any punishment for losing?"
Qu Jiang said, "Performing a show."
Ye Shaoyang was stunned: "Performing a show? Performing a pentakill on site?"
Qu Jiang chuckled lightly and said: "No, it's an impromptu talent show. Last year our team won, and the losers were Xiao Zhao's team. In the end, Xiao Zhao performed a street dance for everyone. Everyone told him: You danced pretty well, but don't dance next time."
Qu Jiang scrolled through his phone, found the video from last year's All-Star, and showed it to Ye Shaoyang. Ye Shaoyang leaned over with interest to take a look. After watching the video, he came to the same conclusion: "Danced well, don't dance next time."
In the center of the big stage, Zhao Xin'an's body was about to twist into a fried dough twist, and his left foot almost tripped his right foot.
This isn't street dance; you're performing a shamanic ritual, aren't you, Reporter Zhao?
Qu Jiang said: "Xiao Zhao was forced onto the stage last year. He was pushed out by temporary teammates to perform a dance. It is said that after this street dance, his Weibo lost 100,000 followers directly."
Ye Shaoyang held back his laughter and said: "Xiao Zhao is too funny. Is he the comic relief of the League?"
Qu Jiang nodded: "That's right. It's said that his singing is even worse; absolutely don't sing."
Ye Shaoyang thought for a moment and said: "This year, there are 15 of us selected for the All-Star. We should be divided into 3 teams, right? I wonder how the punishment and reward rules will be set."
Hearing this, Chi Shuo, who was driving in the front row, said in a low voice: "I heard that this year's rules will be more interesting than in previous years. Three-team confrontation, many uncertain factors. Anyway, the All-Star is just entertainment; winning or losing doesn't matter."
Ye Shaoyang nodded: "Mn, just treat it as going to play."
Chi Shuo asked: "Can Yangyang sing?"
Ye Shaoyang coughed lightly: "I'm okay, I guess, but I don't sing well either. After all, I'm not a professional. I feel performing talent on stage would be very awkward, so let's try not to lose."
Qu Jiang whispered in Ye Shaoyang's ear: "Captain Chi sings quite nicely."
Ye Shaoyang was stunned: "Really?"
Qu Jiang whispered: "Mn, but he never sings in public. Since I joined Tianhuan, I've only heard him sing once. That was two years ago on his birthday; everyone egged him on to sing, and he couldn't refuse, so he just sang a song casually."
Ye Shaoyang said curiously: "Really? If there's a chance in the future, I also want to hear it."
Chi Shuo saw the two whispering in the rearview mirror and couldn't help asking: "What are you talking about?"
The two said in unison: "Nothing."
Soon, the car arrived at the hotel designated by the League.
Chi Shuo was very experienced in avoiding reporters. He drove directly into the underground garage and took the elevator to the lobby.
The League had staff responsible for reception. After seeing the three, they immediately took them to the front desk to check in: "Captain Chi, everyone has a single room. Your rooms are arranged on the 7th floor. ID cards are needed for registration."
Chi Shuo nodded and handed his ID card to the front desk for verification.
The information of the three was quickly entered into the computer. The front desk gave them the room cards, and the staff member smiled and said: "5:30 PM, welcome dinner on the third floor. Remember to come on time."
The three went to their rooms to settle in simply. After resting for a while, they met up and went to the restaurant on the 3rd floor together.
The restaurant was very lively. Besides the 15 most popular star players in the Huaguo region, there were also the Professional League Chairman team, official hosts, sponsors, and financial backers, filling two full tables.
It was Ye Shaoyang's first time seeing Qiu Heng, the Chairman of the Gods' War League, up close. He was a middle-aged man around 40 years old, tall, with a round face that looked very amiable.
He even took the initiative to shake hands with Ye Shaoyang, smiling as he said: "Tianhuan's Lieyang, right? The most outstanding rookie this season, I've watched your matches. Although you debuted late, you have great potential. Your starting point is already a height that many players will never reach in their lives. Keep up the good work; I have high hopes for you!"
Ye Shaoyang said politely: "Chairman is too kind; I will work hard."
The three sat down nearby. Qu Jiang whispered in his ear: "Chairman Qiu is a smiling tiger. He looks kind, but is actually extremely strict. He is the highest leader for matches in the Huaguo region; all event arrangements require his signature. He personally supervised the punishment for Team Yaoguang's match-fixing before. The year before last, when a player sleeping with fans became a big scandal, he was directly expelled by him, and his professional player qualification was revoked without a word."
Ye Shaoyang said: "Being strict is a good thing. If discipline isn't strictly enforced, there will be more and more match-fixing and private dealings."
Qu Jiang nodded in agreement: "True. Everyone likes Chairman Qiu quite a bit; he has fought for a lot of benefits for us."
Just then, Chairman Qiu stood up and looked at everyone, saying: "E-sports players should try not to drink alcohol, so I'll substitute wine with orange juice. Otherwise, I'm afraid if you drink too much, you'll go Flash into walls one by one, and others will think our Huaguo region players are sleepwalking during matches."
A burst of laughter erupted around them, and everyone stood up with their glasses.
The Chairman narrowed his eyes, raised his glass filled with orange juice, and said: "Welcome everyone to the 10th Season All-Star. You represent the highest level of professional players in the Huaguo region. This All-Star will have many fun competitions, and the League has prepared many surprises for everyone. I hope everyone has fun in the next three days!"
Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together.
Prepared surprises? Ye Shaoyang thought to himself, maybe it's frights.
The welcome dinner was very sumptuous.
After eating and drinking their fill, everyone headed to the All-Star venue together under the protection of security guards.
At 7 PM, the audience had already finished entering, but there were still many fans outside the All-Star venue who couldn't buy tickets, holding support posters and waiting for their idols.
Seeing the 15 people walking this way, a burst of screams erupted from the crowd—
"Captain Fang ahhh! Captain Fang I love you!"
"Sister Xinping is too cool; look over here, sister!"
"Sean Sean, I love you!"
"Yangyang is so handsome today; Yangyang fighting!"
There were all kinds of shouts in the crowd.
The fans' enthusiasm was high, and the screams were deafening.
Ye Shaoyang had enjoyed this kind of "star treatment" in his previous life, so his mood was very calm. He smiled and waved to the fans on both sides, then walked to the interview area at the entrance with Chi Shuo and Qu Jiang.
The Gods' War League All-Star was quite grand. A red carpet was laid outside, making it look like a film festival award ceremony. Players had to sign their names on the signature wall one by one and accept interviews.
When it was the Tianhuan trio's turn, the reporter said excitedly: "Welcome Tianhuan Shuoyue, Lieyang, and RiverWater to the S10 All-Star scene! How do the three of you feel right now? Do you have anything you want to say to the fans?"
Flashes lit up below the stage, and quite a few fans held up fluorescent signs shouting their names.
At this moment, Ye Shaoyang truly felt his popularity. Unknowingly, he had gone from that obscure newbie streamer to a super popular professional player.
Chi Shuo said calmly: "Let Yangyang say a few more words on my behalf."
He handed the microphone to Ye Shaoyang.
Ye Shaoyang took the microphone and smiled: "Of course, we are very excited to participate in the All-Star. I know that for the past half month, everyone has been guarding their computers every day to vote for us. Thank you very much for your support! Whether it's the All-Star events or the playoffs later, we will perform well. Everyone came all the way to the scene; it's really been hard on you. Thank you."
A burst of screams erupted at the scene, and many fans took out their phones to take pictures frantically.
Many fans who came from afar felt their hearts warm upon hearing this. Yangyang's attitude towards fans was indeed as friendly as rumored.
The reporter asked: "What expectations do the three of you have for this All-Star?"
Ye Shaoyang handed the microphone to Qu Jiang, who said seriously: "My expectation is to lose a few less games. Otherwise, I really have no talent to perform."
Ye Shaoyang agreed: "I also hope it's best not to lose!"
The reporter laughed: "It seems everyone has a headache over the talent show. This year's All-Star will have many fun segments. Please enter this way, you three."
Chi Shuo, Ye Shaoyang, and Qu Jiang walked into the venue from the left and quickly arrived at the player seats.
At 7:30 PM, the S10 All-Star event officially opened.
On the big stage, Yao Mu wore a white evening gown and smiled brightly: "Welcome everyone to the Gods' War Professional League S10 All-Star scene. I am tonight's host, Mu Mu!"
The handsome guy next to her was in a suit, dressed very formally: "I am host Brother Dong."
"Participating in this All-Star are the 15 most popular players voted publicly by netizens. These are also the well-deserved e-sports stars of our Huaguo division!"
"Let us welcome the arrival of the gods with the warmest applause!"
The 15 players sat on their gaming chairs and slowly descended from the lift. The lighting on the big stage was specially processed so that everyone only showed a black silhouette, just like mysterious experts hiding behind the scenes.
As the host introduced them one by one, a spotlight would shine on the corresponding player.
15 people, each had to show their face individually.
Ye Shaoyang wore a white T-shirt and blue jeans today, simple and fresh. His hair was combed neatly, and the light blond hair made his face look even fairer, able to withstand 360-degree close-up shots.
When the spotlight shone on him, he gave everyone a brilliant smile.
The sunny and handsome Omega boy immediately drew screams from the whole audience.
"Welcome, Tianhuan Team's rookie mid laner, Lieyang!"
The waves of sound at the scene rose higher and higher.
When all 15 gods showed their faces, the audience's emotions were also stirred to the extreme, and the applause lasted for a long time.
Being able to see so many gods appear on stage at the same time could only be realized on an occasion like the "All-Star." For some "multi-fandom fans," this was simply a visual feast.
"Tonight's Imperial Capital E-sports Center is truly star-studded! Next, we will begin the first segment of the All-Star." Yao Mu smiled and kept the suspense in front of the camera.
"Our 15 players need to draw lots to be divided into 3 teams. Red Team, Blue Team, and Yellow Team. Today's event has a special rule: in principle, members of the same team must be separated."
Hearing this rule, a burst of laughter erupted at the scene.
The bullet screen area was filled with anticipation.
[So, Fang Fang and Yuan Yuan are going to be broken up?]
[Tianhuan's Sun and Moon are also breaking up? Could it be that I can see the scene of Yangyang beating up Captain Chi?]
[Beimu's Big and Xiao Zhao also have to be split!]
[Is the All-Star going to turn into a domestic violence scene? Hurry up, I'm so looking forward to it!]
[The League really knows how to stir things up; thumbs up for this year's planning.]
[Will Captain Chi have the heart to kill Yangyang? Curious!]
Always playing 5v5 random draw tower pushing games was too boring. This year, 15 people divided into 3 teams to play a three-way confrontation, and forcing teammates apart—regardless of what the rules were, it would definitely be much more fun than a two-team PK.
The audience looked expectantly at the big stage.
Yao Mu said: "Please step forward, players, to draw lots here."
The 15 people left their seats and walked quickly to the host.
Staff brought a paper box to the big stage. Yao Mu asked: "Who draws first?"
Brother Dong said: "Let's go in order, from left to right."
Chi Shuo happened to be standing on the far left. He took a step forward, put his hand into the box, and drew a blue card.
Yao Mu: "Tianhuan Shuoyue drew the Blue Team!"
Another staff member walked to Ye Shaoyang and Qu Jiang with a box excluding blue cards. Yao Mu said: "Teammates cannot be on the same team. This box only has red and yellow cards. Lieyang, RiverWater, who will draw next?"
Qu Jiang smiled: "Yangyang draw, give the remaining one to me."
Ye Shaoyang casually drew a red card. Brother Dong said: "Then, the three players of Tianhuan: Shuoyue is Blue Team, Lieyang Red Team, RiverWater Yellow Team. Please proceed to the area where your team is located!"
The lights on the big stage changed, and red, yellow, and blue areas appeared on the ground, each with five computers and gaming chairs. Chi Shuo, Ye Shaoyang, and Qu Jiang walked to different areas respectively, forced to split up.
Next, it was Beimu's turn.
Zhao Xin'an drew a red card, Sister Xinping a blue card, and Sean a yellow card.
The three walked to their respective areas. Zhao Xin'an walked to Ye Shaoyang's side and looked at him excitedly: "Xiao Bai, finally can be teammates with you!"
Ye Shaoyang smiled and said: "It's an honor. If we lose, the matter of the talent show is left to you?"
Zhao Xin'an almost choked on a breath held in his chest. After a few seconds, he whispered a complaint: "I freaking made a mistake last year and was pushed out as a shield to perform dance after losing. Don't mention that dark history. Absolutely cannot lose this year; don't jinx it."
Ye Shaoyang smiled squinting: "I also hope not to lose."
Yao Mu said: "Next is Jingzhe. Let's invite Captain Fang to draw lots first."
Brother Dong joked: "Which team does everyone hope Fang Fang draws?"
The audience shouted in unison: "Blue Team!"
Chi Shuo: "…"
Don't come to Blue Team; not welcome.
A group of people in the bullet screen area started watching the excitement without caring if it blew up.
[If Fang Fang draws Blue Team, is Blue Team bound to lose? After all, the Chi-Fang duo synergy is a disaster.]
[Know about the world-class mid-jungle synergy rollover accident?]
[Fang Fang don't go to Blue Team; their synergy will definitely bring down their teammates.]
[I actually want to see them lose and perform talent!]
Amid the cheers of fans throughout the venue, Fang Zhengqing reached into the box, and then—
Drew a blue card.
The audience burst into laughter: "Captain Chi expresses: Don't come over!" "Dying of laughter, they are on the same team again; simply a disaster." "Sister Xinping is already holding her forehead helplessly, hahaha." "Sister Xinping expresses: I don't want to lose; can you guys not bring me down!"
Yao Mu was also watching the good show: "Let us congratulate Fang Fang for joining the Blue Team!"
Fang Zhengqing's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly: "My luck is bad; must be infected by Chi Shuo."
Brother Dong: "I saw the look of disdain on Captain Chi's face."
Yao Mu: "Captain Fang seems very disdainful too."
Brother Dong: "Is this the rhythm of infighting before the match even starts?"
Fang Zhengqing walked helplessly to the blue area.
Chi Shuo said: "Remember to wash your hands before drawing lots next time."
Fang Zhengqing raised an eyebrow: "First come, first served. You didn't wash your hands; you drew the blue card first."
Chi Shuo said coldly: "Is 'first come, first served' used like that?"
Fans were about to die of laughter: "Blue Team is doomed to lose!"
With Chi Shuo and Fang Zhengqing on one team, fans unanimously decided to let Blue Team give up treatment and prepare for punishment. Tonight's winner should be produced between the Red Team and Yellow Team.
The drawing continued.
Xu Zhuo and Xie Weiyu were also split up. Xie Weiyu drew the Red Team; he happily hugged Ye Shaoyang and joined Lieyang's camp.
Xu Zhuo drew the Yellow Team. Yellow Team's strength increased greatly; after all, he was a top laner who had won the world championship.
Binghun's Captain Chen Qianhua drew the Red Team. He came to the Red Team and also hugged Ye Shaoyang.
Zhao Xin'an looked at them suspiciously: "Wait, do you three have a good relationship?"
Xie Weiyu laughed: "We often play entertainment matches privately."
Zhao Xin'an immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems our Red Team has hope of winning!"
In the subsequent grouping, Huowen's jungler A'Yan was assigned to the Blue Team, Captain Zhou Jiawen to the Yellow Team; Luoshendian's Captain Liu Luo was also assigned to the Blue Team.
The final list was confirmed, and the grouping for the first round was displayed on the big screen.
Blue Team: Chi Shuo, Fang Zhengqing, Zhao Xinping, Liu Luo, Yan Yan;
Red Team: Ye Shaoyang, Zhao Xin'an, Xie Weiyu, Chen Qianhua, Xie Yuan;
Yellow Team: Qu Jiang, Sean, Xu Zhuo, Zhou Jiawen, Li Yunmo.
Yao Mu said excitedly: "Blue Team has four captains!"
Brother Dong analyzed: "However, Blue Team's Shuoyue, A'Yan, and Luoshendian are all junglers; Fang Fang is mid laner, Xinping is marksman. The lineup is a bit unbalanced."
Yao Mu said: "For Red Team, Yangyang mid, Xiao Zhao top, Xie Weiyu and Xie Yuan dual marksmen, Xiao Chen support. Marksman positions overlap?"
Brother Dong followed up: "Yellow Team's Sean and Zhou Zhou are both mid laners, Qu Jiang and Li Yunmo are both supports, Xu Zhuo is top laner. Positions also overlap. However, the All-Star format is different from our professional league's 5v5 tower pushing mode. Positions actually don't matter much!"
Yao Mu smiled and said: "Yes! Please take your seats, players, and select a captain as soon as possible. Next, we will read out the competition rules for the first phase of the All-Star!"
Players in the three areas quickly sat in their gaming chairs and deftly put on headphones.
Blue Team unanimously elected Zhao Xinping as captain. She was the only female Alpha, with a calm personality. If she commanded, she could minimize the negative buff of "Chi Shuo and Fang Zhengqing synergy bringing down teammates."
In the Red Team, 4 people unanimously voted for Ye Shaoyang, making Ye Shaoyang be captain. Ye Shaoyang didn't need to be modest and decline; he sat calmly in the captain's position.
Yellow Team, during the voting phase, everyone voted for Xu Zhuo. He was a player who debuted with Chi Shuo, Fang Zhengqing, and others in S6. He had the most seniority and a generous and straightforward personality, so everyone was willing to listen to his command.
After the captains of the three teams were selected, the rules for this game appeared on the big screen.
"Treasure Chest Battle, a format and map exclusive to this All-Star. After the All-Star ends, it will also be launched simultaneously in the online game's entertainment matches!"
"The map is triangular, with the three vertices being the spawn points for the Red, Yellow, and Blue teams respectively. After a player dies, they will respawn at the corresponding spawn point. The match time is 20 minutes, and the respawn time after each death is fixed at 10 seconds."
"Leaving the Red, Yellow, and Blue spawn protection zones, the wilderness area is a public area where combat is free. At the start, everyone automatically obtains equipment that upgrades automatically with time; there is no economic gap. At the end of the match, the team with the most treasure chests is judged the winner of this match. The two losing teams need to accept punishment."
"There are three ways to obtain treasure chests: First, 5 treasure chests spawn randomly on the map every minute; Second, killing jungle monsters drops a fixed 5 treasure chests; Third, killing enemy players allows you to obtain the treasure chests they are carrying."
"Treasure Chest Battle has no hero BP phase. After the match starts, the hero pool is open to all three teams simultaneously. Everyone needs to rely on hand speed to snatch their favorite heroes."
"Next, there are 5 minutes left for everyone to understand the game rules."
Hearing this, the players looked at each other in dismay.
Zhao Xin'an couldn't help but complain: "Isn't this just a three-team treasure snatching brawl?"
Xie Weiyu said: "It's different from the entertainment mode we usually play. In a three-team brawl, if the Blue and Yellow teams team up against us, we definitely can't beat them, right?"
Xie Yuan smiled and said: "Blue and Yellow teams won't team up. Their Blue Team might even have infighting."
Chen Qianhua said: "This game has no division of jungle or mid positions, and of course, no mid-jungle synergy playstyle. Chi Shuo and Fang Zhengqing won't necessarily bring down their teammates."
Xie Yuan thought carefully and agreed: "True. Their most critical disagreement lies in the different understanding of rhythm when ganking top or bot lane. But this game has no top or bot lane at all; it's all grouping up to fight. Expecting them to bring down teammates doesn't seem realistic?"
Ye Shaoyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
It seemed the negative buff of Chi Shuo and Fang Zhengqing bringing down teammates had deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Ye Shaoyang calmly brought the topic back: "Sister Xinping is in the Blue Team. With her as captain, the Blue Team won't collapse so easily. Let's discuss: should we ambush and sneak attack, reaping the spoils without effort, or snatch treasure chests right from the start?"
Xie Weiyu said: "Yangyang, you decide. You are the captain."
Chen Qianhua agreed: "Mn, everyone has different ideas. It's too troublesome to discuss. You decide, and we just obey your command."
Xie Yuan said: "Agreed."
Zhao Xin'an rubbed his fists: "I also agree. I haven't heard Xiao Bai command yet."
Ye Shaoyang thought carefully and said: "Our team has top, support, mid, and dual marksmen, which is relatively comprehensive. Everyone can choose heroes they are good at. It's safer for 5 people to carry treasure chests separately. Killing a player grants all their treasure chests, so people carrying too many chests will become key targets for the opposing side."
He paused and said: "Start by ambushing. Wait for the Blue and Yellow teams to fight a wave, then we go collect heads!"
