LTG is a team that has just been restructured this year, and no one on the team has ever had playoff experience!

For such a young team, how to play in the playoffs, they don't have any idea in their hearts!

"There is a big difference between BO5 and BO3!"

The next day, during the morning meeting of the LTG E-sports Club, Coach Jin handed over all the people in the team to the conference room and began to put up the PPT that Lord Wang had helped him make the night before.

"Here's some simple data, look!"

Coach Jin clicked the mouse, and the picture on the big screen began to change, and a column of data was listed.

"EDG team, BO1 win rate 71%, BO5 win rate 44%"

"Team XG, BO3 win rate 43%, BO5 win rate 91%"

"IG Sentai ......"

"WE Sentai ......"

World Six, who was sitting next to Lord Wang, gasped and muttered in a somewhat shocked voice: "Ghost, isn't BO5 just two more games?" Why is there such a big difference in win rates? ”

Although the exclamation of World Six was small enough, Coach Kim still heard it.

He glanced at World Six, then stood up, leaned forward, propped his palms on the table, and looked at the people present with a look full of oppression. The fundamental difference between the BO3 and BO5 formats is actually that there are two more games! ”

"But have you ever thought about what it means to have these two more games?"

Lord Wang hurriedly became the best cheering player, and pretended to be at a loss to hand over to Coach Jin: "What does it mean?" ”

Coach Jin coughed with satisfaction, and began to explain with a masterful look: "In BO5, the most important point is that strength is greater than luck!" ”

"In the BO3 format, it is possible that one of the players is lucky and wins the first game through various factors, then the game will go directly to the match point game, as long as one of the next two games wins, it will be considered a victory!"

"But in BO5, there is no such luck factor!"

"Because you may be lucky once, lucky twice, you can't be lucky three times in a row!"

"In the same way, in BO3, if one side has some small lanes, then as long as they can win the first game with these lanes, they can immediately get the match point game, but in BO5, these lanes are completely useless!"

"The most important thing is that in BO5, we play every game by elimination! As long as you lose, it's all over! ”

"We've been playing so many regular season games all summer, and if we're not careful in the playoffs, we're losing all the games! A summer of time wasted! ”

"That's what's really tricky about BO5!"

After Coach Jin finished speaking, the faces of the LTG team members were more or less thoughtful!

They're not stupid, they just need to think about these things that Coach Kim said, and they can figure it out quickly!

Take the previous game between them and the VG team in the regular season, the VG team started with a hand to catch a bloody road, and in that game, Lin Weixiang and Liu Yiqing were directly broken because of the VG team's dirty road, resulting in the VG team easily winning the game.

After the end of the first game, the two sides selected a normal lineup and began to fight hard, but the VG team won again, and the game ended directly!

If the game had been BO5, the outcome would still be known!

This kind of competition system that can determine the entire BO3 trend can be determined by a small road, and it does not require high tactical reserves of the team, basically if one way can play all over the world, the winning rate of the entire regular season will definitely not be bad!

But in a knockout Bo5 game, teams need to prepare a lot more than Bo3!

And in terms of the physical fitness and mental state of the players, the BO5 competition system is also a great test!

You must know that in official competitions, especially in knockout competitions, the pressure on every player is quite high!

If you don't have any real concept of the point, please recall how you felt during the college entrance examination, and study hard for three years to decide your future life in the last exam......

That's the pressure!

And these pressures are still progressive, and if you lose the first game, then the burden on the players' shoulders will be heavier!

Even the old fritter players who have stood on the field for many years may not be able to withstand this pressure, let alone the little rookies of the LTG team who have never played the knockout system BO5!

After listening to Coach Jin talk about a bunch of precautions for the playoffs in the morning meeting, Lord Wang and World Six walked out of the conference room together.

"After listening to a lot, I feel like I'm a little panicked before the playoffs start!" World Six followed Lord Wang as he walked and said, "Ham sausage, you said that if we overturn in the first round of the playoffs, will you not have a chance to play this summer?" ”

Lord Wang glanced at World Six and nodded silently.

"Uh......" World Six scratched his head a little embarrassed, and suddenly realized that he seemed to be asking a strange question just now, and immediately explained, "I'm not saying we can't beat it!" That's not what I meant, I just thought about the possibility......"

"Don't explain! I see what you mean! Lord Wang waved his hand to show that he didn't care, and then walked forward, "I also talked to Coach Jin about this issue...... To be honest, with our current strength, the probability of a round in a six-in-four game is very low! ”

"What are you two muttering?" After the two, Liu Yi vaguely heard Lord Wang's "round of tours", and immediately left Lin Weixiang and came over, "Let's have a round of tours?" What are you kidding?! ”

As soon as Liu Qi's loud voice shouted, the eyes of the other people all turned around.

"Who said we had a round?"

"Holy! Say this kind of thing before you start fighting? ”

"Too frustrating, isn't it?!"

In the eyes of everyone, Lord Wang smiled bitterly and said, "Come on, the brothers didn't eat when they just got up for the morning meeting, right?" Let's go to the cafeteria first, and we'll talk while eating! ”

"Yes!"

"That's a good idea!"

The group walked towards the cafeteria on the third floor with a smile and a smile.

………………

In the cafeteria, the cooking aunt has already prepared delicious food, and the same dishes are served in a large rice bowl for casual use.

After giving himself the most delicious fish fragrant silk, Lord Wang sat down at the dining table and said while eating: "That's the case, just now I talked to the six or two people in the world about the topic of the playoffs!" ”

"Hmm!" World Six said vaguely with a rice spoon in his mouth, "Four are the four waves!" ”

"As we all know, we are now in a six-to-four position in the playoffs, which means that we will face a team from eight to six in the first round of the playoffs!"

Everyone nodded yes.

"Now that we have this information, it's easy to judge who our opponent will be in the first round of the playoffs!"

Lord Wang said, took the chopsticks of the world six and put them together with his own chopsticks, and pointed one by one: "First of all, we are Group A, and the top four in Group A of this playoffs are the EDG team, our LTG team, and the S team behind!" ”

"In Group B, there is the first place WE team and the second place IG team...... These two teams have nothing to do with us for the time being, so we won't discuss them, the XG team in third place and the VG team in fourth place! ”

Lin Weixiang on the side was suddenly surprised: "XG team? Aren't they last in Group B? How did you suddenly become third in Group B? ”

Liu Yi glanced at his partner on the road with some disdain, and said angrily: "Isn't it smart?" Don't you care about regional points as a professional player? Team XG is undefeated since the puppy came on! In the second half of the regular season, you have a winning record, and you have already rushed to the third place in Group B, and your news is too ill-informed, right?! We've known this for a long time! ”

"That's it!"

"In other words, the XG team only started its winning streak after defeating us, and it feels like we are the reinventing benefactors of the XG team!"

"Hahaha!"

When the team members finished talking about the XG team, Lord Wang continued to speak: "Now, there are actually only a few teams that may become our opponents - S team, XG team and finally VG team!" ”

"These teams draw lots from each other and play eight-of-six...... It could be a lot, but the best for us at the moment might be for Team XG to be in the other half! ”

"Only in this situation, whether we are facing the S team or the VG team, we have the strength to fight! And the win rate is huge! ”

"But if we're unlucky and we're directly in the same half as Team XG, then there's a high probability that our opponent in six and four will be Team XG!"

"Team XG is on fire right now, and since Uzi's return, their entire team has been activated again...... To be honest, against Team XG, with our current state, it's very difficult to win! ”

Lin Weixiang frowned, touched his chin and thought for a long time before he spoke: "In other words, the probability that we will face the XG team in the first round of the playoffs is one in four?" That's not a high probability! ”

"A quarter of a hammer! You haven't been to high school yet! ”

"I've been on it! Although he was expelled......"

"Holy!" Liu easily said helplessly, "It's obviously half of it!" There are two halves in the playoffs, either we are in the same half as Team XG, or we are in a different half from Team XG...... No matter how you calculate it, it's half of it! How do you count out a quarter! ”

"Isn't it four teams?"

"Nima!"

Everyone began to worry about Lin Weixiang's IQ!
