Chapter 301 301: There is a reason to win the championship(1/3)
The three days in Nanjing were intense and fulfilling.
Shiquan took over the hosting of the event from Banana Project, and the two teams participating in the finals finally did not have to go to the Internet cafe to train like last year.
The staff booked the hotel conference room in advance and sent computers and chairs from Shanghai to Nanjing so that the players could practice in the hotel, similar to the model of last year's World Championships.
The preparation work for Shiquan was very thorough, which made VG team leader Jin Wenhyuk deeply gratified.
Today is different from the past. There are minors in the team's starting lineup and they can't even enter the Internet cafe!
During last year's summer finals in Guangzhou, Jack could only huddle in his room and play with his laptop, which was unsatisfactory. After all, Imp was in front of him and it was not the young player's turn to play.
If we are still training in an Internet cafe this year, will Yu Wenbo go?
Now the team can complete training in the hotel, and the environment is obviously much better than before.
Occasionally I would leave my residence and go to the venue to shoot promotional videos and talk trash. The rest of the time, the VG training department would stay in the training room preparing for games.
But they couldn't hold training matches, so they didn't adapt very well.
The team participated in the finals of last year's Summer Split and World Championship.
During the summer split, since other teams will have bubble matches later, there will be no shortage of scheduled opponents.
At that time, although VG did not win a valuable championship, it was still considered a rising star.
Therefore, VG's situation can only be described in one sentence - Who doesn't want to fight me?
In the World Championship finals, VG relied on a dual offensive of money and emotion to successfully let ROX serve as a sparring partner.
In short, they had no shortage of training games before the final battle of the previous competition!
This year’s Spring Finals is the first time.
In the two major competition regions of China and South Korea, only VG and WE are still on vacation.
It's impossible to find a final opponent for a fight.
VG had no choice but to use custom running tactics and use ranking to maintain the feel.
"Ouch..." Yu Wenbo rubbed his fingertips and looked at the scarlet word "failure" on the monitor with a slightly depressed expression, "Brother, you won't suffer badly in the finals tomorrow, right?"
Gu Xing laughed beside him, "Jack is planning to spread out the red carpet to welcome the first final of his career, right?"
Since yesterday, Yu Wenbo started to kneel crazily.
So far, we have lost 7 games in a row, and the record query website is all red, like a welcome red carpet!
"Dude, I even took out Draven, but I didn't expect that I would still lose!" Jack sighed helplessly.
After officially embarking on the professional path, like most players, he basically no longer pays too much attention to the qualifying situation.
After all, performance on the field is the key.
If a professional player has been competing in the competition for a period of time, the only thing he can boast about is reaching the top of the Chinese and Korean server rankings a few times, which would be ridiculous.
Jack basically doesn't use Draven in recent qualifying matches. He always chooses characters with average proficiency to practice heroes. He doesn't really care about winning or losing.
But now, Yu Wenbo is trying his best to win a game.
Without training matches, ranking has become the only basis for him to measure his own status!
After being kneeled down for seven consecutive times, Jack always felt that he was not in a good condition.
"Hoo ho ho, you have more or less the attribute of an unlucky person," Xiao Duan said, his hands felt hot due to his continuous winning streak, "Jie Kuo, do you want me to take you flying?"
Before Jack could agree, the team leader called for the team members to gather for the last rehearsal.
The Olympic Sports Center is empty inside, with densely packed seats in the stands on all sides. The necessary equipment for tomorrow's opening ceremony has been set up in the center of the stage.
The staff members were still debugging in an orderly manner while wearing T-shirts with the Shiquan logo printed on them.
"Brother, please come in from the backstage passage when the time comes." The chief director of the scene leaned next to Gu Xing and emphasized the process to him with words and gestures. "Go straight along the stage to where you are standing now. Be sure to
Remember, the light will hit here. If you stand wrongly, it will be damaged..."
Gu Xing nodded to indicate that he understood clearly, and then asked curiously, "What will happen if I stand wrongly, just because I am not illuminated by the light?"
The director hesitated for two seconds before speaking.
"Beside the big light are other small blue lights used to decorate the stage. If you stand there, the blue light will shine down from the dome, flashing and turning you into a Smurf."
Gu Xing knew it in his heart and could imagine the funny scene.
After confirming the position, when I returned to the player's seat, I saw Smeb debugging the computer.
Song Jinghao's Chinese had not yet reached the level of proficiency. Jin Wenhe helped set the language of the private game server to Korean, and then he adjusted the shortcut keys and image quality options to what he was used to.
Jack looked around, full of freshness.
During last year's Summer Split and World Championship, he was often able to go to the players' booth to debug equipment.
That is Yu Wenbo's right as a substitute.
But he knew at that time that he would not play unless Imp got drunk before the game and broke his arm with a Solo trash can...
But this is unrealistic. Whose management ignores and allows the players to drink heavily before the competition, without even taking any protective measures?
When Yu Wenbo went on stage to debug the machine, it was just a formality.
It's different now.
He is destined to take the stage tomorrow for the final battle with WE under the spotlight!
Just thinking about it made Jack's heart surge.
Gu Xing didn't know about the change in his mood, and was still sharing interesting stories with his teammates.
"I've seen Sofm's settings before. The picture quality of Guigui's is the lowest, and the resolution needs to be changed. The screen is almost turned into a mosaic!"
Xiao Duan didn't understand very much, "What kind of habit is this? I always like to play in the highest tone."
Jack, who originally doubted his own status because of kneeling in the rankings, was now immersed in the excitement of the upcoming decisive battle, and even answered excitedly, "I understand! I think CSGO professional guys all lower the resolution..."
"Let's go. Can MOBA compare with FPS?" Jin Wenhe patted him on the head.
"Brother Jin, help me adjust the client language!" Duan Deliang requested the team leader.
Gu Xing looked over confused.
"what's going on?"
The default version of the domestic competition private server client is Chinese, and there is no need to change it at all.
"Don't you understand?" Duan Deliang explained rationally, "We are in good condition for the Korean server qualifying. We have changed the game language to Korean server. I will play the finals as a ranked match tomorrow!"
Anyway, players like them who have tens of thousands of game experiences basically don’t have to worry about language problems affecting the game. It would be good to change the language to give themselves some psychological hints.
Xiao Duan is introverted and has a slight social phobia. Sometimes when he encounters events that are too grand, his hands are shaking when he goes on stage. Ask him to play the finals as a ranked game. Maybe it will have a miraculous effect.
"Jie Kuo, you should also change it, and form a duo in the bottom lane as a companion!" Jin Wenhe thinks the method is feasible, and also wants to give Yu Wenbo, who is playing in the finals for the first time, an advantage.
"Don't, don't, don't," Jack shook his big head like a rattle, "I've knelt down for 7 consecutive times in the Korean server. Isn't it courting death to treat the finals as a ranked game?"
Just as Kuro was about to interrupt and tease his teammates, the phone in his trouser pocket suddenly rang.
Seeing the peanut pattern in the note, he decisively connected to the video.
"Wanghu, why are you looking for your brother?"
The limited-edition little peanut with maroon hairstyle occupies Kuro’s mobile phone screen, smiling happily.
"Aren't we watching your finals tomorrow? I just want to make a video..." Han Wanghu brushed up his bangs out of habit. When he saw the handsome man glanced at the side of the screen, he also raised his voice and said hello in Chinese, "Brother Xing
Mudwort!”
His Mandarin is very average and he only knows simple daily expressions such as hello and thank you.
Gu Xing noticed the little peanut and waved to show friendship.
Before Penaut could say anything, someone sprayed a stream of water on his face.
"Axi," Little Peanut turned around and glared angrily, "Brother Donghe, what are you doing?"
Khan made a face when his name was called, and ran away with a water gun and a bulging belly. His posture was like a male gun skin at a Cos Leonardo pool party.
Little Peanut complained in a low voice, took off his glasses and wiped the water droplets off his face.
Although Khan is far less famous than Little Peanut, he is a veritable veteran. Born in 1995, he started his youth training career in 2013, and later moved to LPL and LSPL. He just returned to China during the transfer period at the end of last year.
Peanut has to call the opponent brother, he is really the younger brother in the team.
"Where are you?" Kuro asked, "I feel like the background is a bit fake."
"Fake?" Xiaohuahua responded cheerfully, shaking the camera to show off, "Jeju Island! Our whole team is going on vacation and we won't return to Seoul until tomorrow!"
Although Longzhu was also founded by a domestic live broadcast platform, its current capital chain is obviously more abundant than ROX.
Otherwise, it would not be possible to swallow the three big contracts in the LCK, Xiaohuahua + Xuanming.
If you win the championship this time, you will naturally have money to go out and play.
There are not many places in South Korea where you can travel, and Jeju Island is one of the few places with pleasant scenery. The Longzhu team was swimming, surfing, and driving a small yacht, which eliminated the fatigue from the spring competition.
Kuro was very envious and couldn't help but show off to Xiaohuatiao, "Our boss said that if you get the spring crown, you can play locally for a whole week!"
