Chapter 628: Double Champion
It was a good result for the two teams to enter the individual finals and the team to enter the team finals, but it was already late at night at the end of the preliminary and semi-finals of the team competition in the evening, and there was a final tomorrow, so Xiao Yao and the others did not have any celebrations after the game, and returned directly to the rented villa.
It was almost late at night when they arrived at the villa. After the afternoon and evening of the competition, the energy and physical exertion were very strong, Zou Tianyu and the others did not have the energy to continue training for tomorrow's finals, and after returning to the villa, they went back to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, Zou Tianyu, who was sleeping soundly, was pulled up by Xiao Yao.
"What time is it?" the sleepy-eyed Zou Tianyu rubbed his eyes and asked Xiao Yao a little confused.
"It's past nine o'clock!" Xiao Yao replied.
"It's only nine o'clock?" Zou Tianyu sighed, turned his head and was about to fall into bed again, "It's only a game in the afternoon, and it's too early to get up, right?"
Many of the gamers are night owls, and the training and competition time is generally in the afternoon and evening, and the morning is usually the time for sleeping and resting. In the past few days, Xiao Yao, Zou Tianyu and others have generally arranged training in the afternoon and evening, and even occasionally practice until the early hours of the morning, and they usually do not train in the morning, except for Xiao Yao, Zou Tianyu and the other three have never gotten up so early.
"I have something to tell you!" Xiao Yao looked at Zou Tianyu, who was about to fall into bed again, and said, "I asked Minyi to bring breakfast, you should get up quickly, otherwise it won't taste good if it gets cold for a while." ”
"Ah~" Zou Tianyu wailed, and helplessly lifted the quilt on his body.
Ten minutes later, Zou Tianyu, who had finished washing up, but was obviously still a little lacking, appeared in the living room. Zou Tianyu saw Xiao Yao sitting behind the computer, so he laughed and teased: "Practice again?
Among the four people, only Xiao Yao, who has the worst foundation, will train alone in the morning, and Zou Tianyu and the three of them all know it. At this time, Xiao Yao was sitting behind the computer, and Zou Tianyu naturally thought that Xiao Yao was training.
"It's not about grinding guns," Xiao Yao smiled, pointed to the table in the living room, and said, "There's breakfast on the table, you eat it first." ”
Zou Tianyu looked at the table and found that there was only one piece of food, and said a little strangely while picking it up and eating: "Just one breakfast? Fang Jiang and the two of them won't get up earlier than me, right?"
"They were still asleep, and I didn't wake them up. Xiao Yao said, "If I didn't call them, they probably wouldn't get up before eleven o'clock, so I only asked Minyi to send two breakfasts, and my own portion had already been eaten." ”
"You only call me, don't you call them?" Zou Tianyu looked at Xiao Yao and said, "Didn't you get up so early to train?
"It's not about practicing double rows, it's about talking to you about single rows. Xiao Yao said.
"Single row?" Zou Tianyu said with a wry smile, "If you want to practice single row, you can practice it yourself! My single row technique has accumulated over time, and it will not have any effect after practicing for two or three hours." It's neither fast nor just for me to sharpen my gun, if you affect my sleep, maybe it will also affect my performance in the afternoon!"
"I didn't say that I let you practice your skills, I came to let you get familiar with your opponent!" Xiao Yao said, "I definitely don't have a chance in the individual competition, but you have a good chance." I gathered some information about the top individual competitors yesterday, studied it a little, and took advantage of the morning time to talk to you, which should help you in the afternoon final. ”
"Studying the opponent's profile? Isn't that what the coaching team in soccer and basketball does a lot of things? Zou Tianyu was very interested when he heard this, turned around and walked over, sat down next to Xiao Yao and said, "I'll see how you are doing!"
"Your team will also send people to do this kind of thing, so what about the analysis results? Show me if I can synthesize it with what I researched yesterday. Xiao Yao said.
"It's just a matter of gathering us together to watch the opponent's game video and feel the opponent's tactical style, so there is no special analysis result. Zou Tianyu said with a smile, "Many of the opponents in this competition are foreign teams, we are not very familiar with them, and we haven't found many of their game videos, not this time!"
"Then it's up to me!" Xiao Yao said while operating the computer, "These are the top rankings in the individual competition, and they are also your main opponents!"
"So many foreign ones?" Zou Tianyu said in slight surprise when he saw Xiao Yao open a folder, and there were seven or eight folders named after the team and game IDs.
The game IDs of professional e-sports players are relatively fixed, and through yesterday's game, Zou Tianyu knows that those game ID names are all players who participated in the competition yesterday, and most of them are foreign players.
"Mainly foreign," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Domestic players, I think you should be more familiar with them." ”
"Yes, domestic players, we have played against each other a lot, and we already know each other better. Zou Tianyu nodded.
"Let's look at this Korean player first. Xiao Yao clicked on a folder and said.
"So many videos?" Zou Tianyu said as he looked at the pile of videos lined up in the folder, "I have to see when I go?"
"I've seen them all, but you don't have to watch them all, just watch some of them. Xiao Yao said, "I chose some videos that best reflect his tactical style and characteristics, but I haven't had time to separate them, but I remember all of them." Let's watch the video and I'll tell you at the same time, you can watch and listen while eating!"
"Wait, you've watched so many videos?" Zou Tianyu looked at Xiao Yao and said, "There are so many videos in other people's folders?"
"The number of videos varies from person to person, but on average it's about the same as this, and I've seen them all. Xiao Yao nodded and said, "Study the opponent, of course, the more information you read, the better." Of course, I've seen all these collected videos. ”
"I won't ask where you got so many videos, it takes a lot of time just to watch them, right?" Zou Tianyu said, "Since you came back last night, you haven't slept all the time, right?"
"It's okay, I slept for more than four hours!" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "When I watched it, it would be played quickly, and it didn't take too much time to watch it all, but it was more troublesome to collect videos." However, I have Minyi's help in collecting videos, and I found the videos on the local Korean website by myself, and she helped me find the videos on the English website, so I asked her to go back to make up for sleep after delivering breakfast. ”
"Yesterday the game was so long, and I only slept for four hours this morning?" Zou Tianyu sighed, "But you are too ruthless in doing this?
"It can't be said that it is inevitable, but since I participated, of course I hope to get good results!" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I have been energetic since I was a child, and four hours of sleep is enough." If it weren't for the fact that there was a game this afternoon, I would have had no problem staying all night. ”
"No, why do you spend all your time in the individual competition?" Zou Tianyu suddenly slapped his thigh and said with a complaining voice, "You also said it yourself, you have no hope of winning the championship in the individual final, is it necessary to spend so much effort for me?" The results of the team competition are more important than the results of the individual competition, and you are in the team competition, if you win the championship, you as a team member will also have honors to take." ”
"Who said I spent all my time on you?" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "There are only eight teams participating in the team finals, and there are only three or four teams that are ranked above us and have similar strength to us, and I have already collected information about their teams and studied them." It's just that we are participating in the team competition together, I just know it, there is no need to tell you again!"
"No wonder you only woke me up, not Fang Jiang and Zhou Yong!" Zou Tianyu said suddenly.
The team competition is a team of four people, and teammates can communicate with each other during the competition. Even if a player controls a character dies in the game, they can continue to watch the game from the perspective of a teammate and still be able to give voice messages to the game's teammates who are still alive. As long as all the game characters of the four members of the team are all dead, Xiao Yao can always be in the game, giving instructions and hints to the surviving teammates, so he can only know the characteristics of the other party, and there is no need for the other three people to remember all of them.
The individual competition is played by individuals, even teammates of the same team cannot communicate in the game, otherwise it will be regarded as cheating, so Xiao Yao must let Zou Tianyu, who entered the final of the individual competition, himself know the style and tactical characteristics of those opponents.
"I'll go!I kind of understand why so many people call you a demon!" Zou Tianyu shook his head again and sighed, "I feel that if I can't win the individual championship this time, will I be sorry for your dedication to staying up late?"
"Don't be pressured!" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Competitive competitions, the champion is indeed the most beautiful, but after all, there is only one champion, and there are always the majority who don't win the championship, let's just do our best!"
"Okay, it's not too early, I'll tell you about the characteristics of the opponent in combination with the video. With that, Xiao Yao clicked on a video and began to introduce the game style of the protagonist in the video.
Zou Tianyu finished eating the food in his hand in three or two bites, and listened attentively.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, Tang You came out of the room. After discovering Xiao Yao and Zou Tianyu in the living room, she didn't disturb the two who seemed to be focused, took some bread and milk from the refrigerator in the kitchen and quietly went back to her room.
At around eleven o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Jiang and Zhou Yong also got up.
After the two finished washing, when they came out of the living room, Xiao Yao and Zou Tianyu were still continuing. After the two knew that Xiao Yao was actually explaining some of the tactical style characteristics of the final opponent to Zou Tianyu, they first sighed at Xiao Yao's behavior, and then sat next to them with great interest and watched together. Although they didn't make it to the finals of the individual competition this time, the people introduced by Xiao Yao are basically the top players in Asia in this game, and it's hard to guarantee that they won't meet these people again in the future.
However, Fang Jiang and Zhou Yong didn't hear much, and Xiao Yao's explanation to Zou Tianyu was over. At this time, it is impossible for Xiao Yao to re-explain and introduce the two people who do not have individual competition tasks, but fortunately, it is useless for Xiao Yao to keep those videos, so he gave them all, so that Zou Tianyu can relay them to the two of them when he has time in the future.
Xiao Yao and Zou Tianyu rested for a while, and at about half past eleven, Pei Minyi came to the villa with lunch. Everyone had lunch in the villa, Pei Minyi took care of the hair and makeup of the four of them, and everyone set off to the venue of the competition to participate in the finals in the afternoon.
Everyone arrived at the competition venue, completed all the formalities, and rested for a long time, and the game began.
Today's final starts at 1 p.m., and the final of the individual competition will be played first.
In terms of its own game level, Zou Tianyu's strength is in the forefront among all players, and Xiao Yao's explanation and introduction of the tactical style characteristics of the main opponent for more than two hours in the morning also played a certain role in Zou Tianyu's play.
In this game, the player's ID is not displayed on the character's head, but when a kill occurs, the ID of the killer and the person being killed, as well as the weapon used by the killer, are displayed in the upper right corner of the game screen. With this, it is sometimes possible to determine which character a player controls based on the time of the kill and the weapon.
Zou Tianyu is a professional player, although he doesn't find out who the other party is every time he sees the enemy, but as long as he sees the other party kill other game characters, he can guess who the other party is, so Xiao Yao's science popularization for him in the morning can play a role. On several occasions when he encountered some strong opponents under unfavorable conditions, Zou Tianyu took advantage of this to successfully reverse the situation and kill the opponent.
It is worth mentioning that in the five rounds of the game, Xiao Yao and Zou Tianyu did not kill each other once. Although the two people have different choices from the choice of landing site, but with the narrowing of the safety zone, the two will inevitably have encounters, but each time the two of them shoot each other three times at most, and then they each withdraw, and there is no life-and-death fight at all.
After the last five rounds, Zou Tianyu won the first once, the third twice, the fourth once, and the fifth once, and the points in killing were also very impressive, ranking first in the total points, and successfully won the championship of the individual competition.
Xiao Yao finally finished ninth in the overall points, although it didn't look as bright as Zou Tianyu, but for himself and those who knew him well, this result could definitely be regarded as a surprise.
Immediately after the individual final, there was no medal ceremony, and the team final began directly after the results were announced.
In the team competition, Xiao Yao can play a greater role, and Zou Tianyu's team also plays very well. After five rounds of fierce battles, Zou Tianyu's team won the first once, second twice, third once, and fourth once, and the kill points were also the best among all teams, and finally successfully won the championship of the team competition.
After the team competition, the award ceremonies of the two competitions were held together. It is not only the champion who took the stage to receive the award, but also the runner-up and third runner-up of the competition. The organizers of the competition imitated the traditional sports competition, and awarded the top three medals in three different colors: gold, silver and bronze.
Zou Tianyu is not only the only player in the audience who has entered the top three in both competitions and received the award twice, but also a very rare double champion.
