001 Rethink
Void Masquerade, or FV is a very popular core hero, Xiao Chuang, who is in charge of Carry's big brother position, will naturally not be unfamiliar with his skill set, and he also keeps in mind the scope of his ultimate. In his field of vision, although the two big brothers of the other party are relatively scattered, they can cover the two people to the limit in a circular ultimate control range.
The three core heroes of both sides on the high ground lit up the Black Emperor Staff at the same time, but then, the dark purple skill effect took everyone's attention.
The Void Time Enchantment locks on all units in the area except himself, and since all three core heroes light up the BKB, the abilities and damage that teammates on both sides may follow up are also a bit unsustainable.
That's fine if you don't target these cores. Lu Xinlei roughly calculated the distance, continuously pressed the shortcut key for the release of the remnant flame and threw all the remnant reserves into the back row of the opponent, and then activated them, and the ash spirit in the picture turned into a flame wind and flew up the opponent's high ground, leaving no way for herself to retreat.
During the flight process of the residual flame activation, the fire cat can use some items and skills that do not need to choose a target, which many fire cat players who are not proficient in this point do not understand, or think that it is useless after understanding: the fire cat will be limited in the middle of the flying soul, such as the second skill Shadowless Fist is only a theoretical possibility of activation.
However, items such as Veil of Discord that require a select area can be used.
The damage of the six remnant flames and the damage deepening of the Veil of Discord instantly scattered the opponent's back-row support heroes, and the subsequent skill damage was simply completed before they could react, and at this time, the Void Mask, who controlled the two BKB brothers, had not had time to knock out his third sword.
The opponent who quickly attrition under the explosive damage of the fire cat has lost the auxiliary backhand and rescue and most of the auxiliary equipment, even if the eldest brother successfully reacted and pressed the Black Emperor Staff, after the end of the Void Mask's ultimate, it is difficult to defeat the four hands with two fists, not to mention that the economic advantage of the Void Mask, which is completely under pressure, is now too great to shake, and they accept the fact of their defeat after symbolically resisting for a while.
"Beautiful!"
"It's been a long job, it's been a hard job."
"Tomorrow comrades will also play hard, and one more round will be the quarterfinals."
Since the five players of their own team were in different dormitories, they could not gather immediately, and the post-game celebration was only briefly advertised on the audio channel. Although there is not much pressure to win the match just now, the opponents are at least still there, and it is always pleasant to take a step forward with a victory.
"The game is over, and there is no need to say anything about the post-game summary, anyway, it is a crushing game from all aspects," Bai Wangyuan, the most stable in the team, took the initiative to take the burden of the post-game summary, "I'll take a look at the video a little more to see if we still have anything to improve, if there is one, it will be posted in the group later, you don't have to worry about it, go and do your own thing, remember to take a look at it when the time comes, just analyze and analyze it yourself." ”
It's Tuesday, and the tournament that has just ended is the second round of the entire Major, and the team has already gone through two rounds of the series to make it to a bizarre "round of 15".
Tomorrow, Wednesday's tournament will be on track after a bye is provided, with the 15 teams divided into seven teams to fight each other except for one lucky bye, and then the eight teams that will advance to the next round – until now the number of teams in the tournament is considered normal.
Although the online stage of the tournament is also completely open on the game server, of course, it will not receive much attention. After all, it's just an intramural cup competition of a 114514-class university, and it's an online competition on weekdays, so maybe the offline competition in an Internet café on the last day will attract a little more attention.
However, this has nothing to do with them for the time being, and it has little to do with Lu Xinlei herself.
She got up from her seat and moved her shoulders slightly, and then realized that there really wasn't much she could do. The next match may not be until tomorrow, and if you win again, you won't have to play the next game until the next day......
Why can't you just finish all of these games in one day? Such a thought could not help but flash through the girl's mind.
But it's just an idea, time will still move forward according to its own trajectory, she just needs to make her own choices, and then do what she can do according to her choices.
Everything that can be done well.
The school cup in front of her doesn't have to care about it for the time being, and the studies that should be considered first as a student actually don't make any difficulties for her, there is no intuitive pressure, and the girl who has settled down temporarily has indeed gained a time to stop and think temporarily.
A part of the man who came from the past began to objectively consider his current situation, and the soul who had been through a long part of his life inevitably tended to be more mature when thinking about the problem—reflected in the girl's thinking, that is, thinking about the "dream" that she had really obtained.
Is it really a good choice to crash headlong into Dota's career bandwagon like this?
Admittedly, the capital she now has can support her to step into that threshold, but how far can she go on this one-lane road to Aegis?
Dota's popularity in this world is both a good thing and a bad thing, and the ordinary media practitioners, effective enthusiasts and team staff here are much better than their counterparts in the half-lived world of Dota, both in terms of quality of life and popularity, for them, Dota's popularity is a real good thing; But not necessarily for those top players.
Judging from the data searched by the girl during this period of time, since the official landing in 2012, Dota has had a nine-digit registered account in China on this world line, and according to the data on the number of monthly active players in Sbeam, CNserver provides nearly half of the monthly active data for this game:
The number of monthly active players in Dota 2 as a whole is around 60 million, while the number of monthly active players in the China region alone has reached 26 million. It's a suffocating number for all new players aspiring to compete for that top honor.
Compared to Dota, where the number of monthly active users in the world has fallen below one million, such a huge player base also means that opportunities for newcomers to seize are very rare.
If now she is the same as the man she once was, she is a genius out of 100,000, and in the former world, she can rely on her talent to compete with the top names in the world, but in the current environment, there are hundreds of people who have the same talent as her. One in 100,000 of 26 million is 260, and if her talent can only support this height, she will not even be able to make it to the main team of the first-tier clubs.
And if her genius can be called one in a million, then there will be nearly thirty people who can compete with her in China alone, in fact, until now, there are only twenty CN players who can engrave their names on Ti's champion Aegis.
Can I really do it now? The problem is not that you are not confident in yourself, but that you can make the most pessimistic projection after weighing the actual situation – and it is also an estimate of the so-called sunk costs. Esports is a pure youth meal, especially for a player like her who relies on her reflexes and computing power to outperform others, and even if she can make it to the top teams to compete for honors, her career won't be very long without transformation.
This is a real, there is no turning back from the bow, once you set foot on this road, there are only two possibilities: success and wasting years of youth, the reward of success is needless to say, but what if you can't get success?
There are many roads ahead of her now, and in fact, the modern girl can make far more choices than the Internet addict teenager born in 1988, and the girl feels that she still has a little time to think carefully.
