[ Mid Fight mode ] is the new game mode , updated in 16 October 2013.
There's only one lane , while there're 4 Turrets available in this mode.
( 1 lesser Turret in the lane , compared to a normal mode )
So , you must choose your fighter carefully , because character drafting balance is very important for this mode.
For example : If there're about 4 carry fighters in your team and you choose magical damage dealer like Duo Lon , it's a very bad character drafting balance.
Due to none of tanker in your team , there will be the huge disadvantages in 5 vs. 5 battle
, if there're 2 tankers , 2 supporters and 1 carry in an enemy team.
( They can easily force your team to attack their tankers , while their supporters and carry can attack your teammate for free from the back line. )
Gankers , like Kyo or Iori must pay attention to the defensive items more than the killer items , turning themselves into the half-tank & gankers for better survivability.
It will be the very pain moment , if your Kyo or Iori has about 500+ physical attack
, while maximum HP is around 1500 ~ 1700 and die easily in 5 vs. 5 collision before you can combo any skill.
So , teamwork is very important.
More time you can hold enemies , force them to attack you instead of your supporter , magical damage dealer and carry
= more advantages in the battle and more chance to win the match.

Moreover , you must cast [ Drunk ] ( hotkey : E ) to your foe before using this skill , to deal more additional burning damage. )
Hotkey : E
Skill name : Drunk

Chin Gentsai is one of the best damage dealer in this game.
As a carry fighter , he needs a good support from other teammates for his advantages in the battle.
Chin can solo mid or gank the enemies in top / bottom lane , depending on personal talent of your teammate.
If you have the skillful teammate , who can play Kyo , Iori , Griffon , Heidern or Kim perfectly
, you should rather help him/her gank the enemy fighters in top/bottom lane than solo mid alone.

or
( Note : You can use smoke to cover & hide yourself / teammates from an enemy , including a tower , to enhance your survivability.
The smoke area euqals to an unrevealable dark zone.
So , all of target-lock skills won't work against smoke. Because , there's no target to cast a skill with.
In the same situation , you can use [ Drunk ] to yourself and activate [ Inferno Summons ] , when you're in the smoke , to attack all of nearby enemies for free.
As long as they do not enter the smoked area or have AoE / non-target-lock skills. )
Remember that , to use [ Drunk ] ( hotkey : E ) before [ Brimstone Blast ] ( hotkey : W ) is very important , when you gank your foe with your teammates.
Because , [ Brimstone Blast ] won't deal an extra burning damage over time without [ Drunk ] skill.
[ Gourd Blast ] can be used to stun your foe for a brief period.
Do not forget to use this skill , to stop an enemy fighter's channeling skill like Kim or Choi Bounge's ultimate skill and free your teammate from them.
Chin's passive skill : [ The game of death ] allows him to use his own soul to attack any enemy within 5 seconds when his HP becomes zero. ( If 5 seconds passed Chin will die )
If you're totally cornered by an enemy team , press [ R ] to activate [ Inferno Summons ]
, you'll able to deal 60% more damage of your basic attack ( Splash AoE damage to nearby enemies ) for 6 seconds.
[ Inferno Summons ] can't be canceled , even if you're suddenly killed in about 0.5 ~ 1 second after activated this skill.
So , it means you can use your soul mode to attack any enemy with 160 % damage in maximum attack speed with Ranger's bow , Dancer's sword and Killer boots. ( Because , your HP is now 0% , an additional effect of Ranger's Bow : +50 % attack speed has been activated )
It's the very impressive moment , when you can deal about 1400+ critical damage to a foe with maximum attack speed and gain Quadra or Penta kill.
( Click at the picture to view the full size )
P.S. Safety first is very important , because Chin is a very fragile carry fighter.
Use [ W ] and [ R ] to kill & gain money from 2 waves of creeps every time you have a farming chance.
Purchase Killer Boots > Assassin's bloody blade , then Kusanagi.
Forget about those additional items like Ranger's bow , Dancer's blade or Butcher's double ax , if you can't purchase Kusanagi yet.
( Better get them after you obtained Kusanagi and sell Threatment Uniform before you purchase the last one of them. )
All of this purchasing steps are for your fastest farming and the best survivability / success ganking chance.
