After deciding on the list, the next thing is also very simple,

The three teams have a clear line of record, with five of TDG's top two teams undoubtedly making the squad, while the final team has three players to choose from.

In the first two teams, the two duo from TDG are undoubtedly running, and in order to ensure the integrity of the entire squad, the third and fourth positions without substitutes are also included in the list.

The only player who was given up was the player in the fifth position in the third-place team.

"Skills are not as good as people, skills are not as good as people." He was quite generous in this matter, after all, he was beaten down 0-2 in two games and had nothing to say, plus he had known the level of other players in his team before, so it was not unacceptable for him to be brushed down like this:

"Big guy, play well, I'm going to continue to take a vacation."

He was still quite open-minded, and waved his hand to the seven people on the list after the coach did announce the final list, which made Lu Xinlei feel a little guilty about the magpie's nest.

"You don't need to feel any pressure," Yu Yang, who was standing beside the girl, touched her shoulder with his elbow - Yu Yang's height is also top-notch among this group of boys, and in the face of Lu Xinlei, she can probably be about two heads taller, and she does have the strength to do such a thing, "Do you want to play, after all, who is on the line." ”

Lu Xinlei turned her face and looked up at the other party from an awkward angle—and she didn't see any negative emotions in the eyes of this ambitious young man.

"You're really good."

The young man nodded, and this was his heartfelt words.

——————————————

After the game, the head coach only had about three minutes of reprimand, and they stepped on the bus to Shencheng together, and when they arrived at the gate of the CRG main base in Shencheng, the day had just ended.

- But for Lu Xinlei, this day has long ended.

"No, coach ......" looked at the girl who was sitting alone in the back row, and JC Wen Juncai, who had just caught up with the girl in yesterday's game, scratched his head, "I ...... What should we do. ”

Hai Ziming, who saw his team members in a daze in the back seat, squeezed through the gap of the seats and came behind him, and then saw the same situation:

In the back seat of the bus, which was connected to a row, the girl was curled up on her side, sleeping like a quiet little animal in the almost quiet environment where the engine had turned off and the personnel had left.

"Wake up?"

The two big men exchanged glances, they each had their own things to do in the front seat along the way, and people who had nothing to do would talk to each other, and no one had the time to notice the girl who was huddled alone in the last row.

But no one expected that she would be able to fall asleep directly on the way, and judging by the current momentum, she didn't seem to be ready to wake up after the bus arrived at its destination.

And the current situation is indeed a dilemma for them - it is certainly impossible to leave the girl in the car like this, but it always feels very guilty to wake her up.

As for the two of them directly lifting her up and carrying her to the base, it doesn't matter what the guilt is, which is a crime in itself.

The manager and the players exchanged glances with each other, and there was silence for about a minute before deciding to make some strange moves at the same time-

"Why don't you come down yet!"

A roar from outside the car shattered the silence in the car, and also made a man and a teenager who inexplicably looked like thieves tremble.

The person who shouted this sentence was obviously not satisfied with just knocking on the mountain and shouting like this, he walked in directly from the open car door, and his mouth was not idle: "The two big men have nothing to do in the car......

The two people in the back row who were tightly blocked in front of him got out of the way, and the gentleman who got into the car faced the girl who had just opened his eyes:

"Uh, ah......" his eyes rolled from side to side, "I'm sorry." ”

But fortunately, the girl who was forcibly woken up forced herself to quickly understand the current situation, and there was no blame, and this little episode did not make any waves.

Of course, there are also influences, at least for Hai Ziming, he has learned that this little girl can't stay up for too long at night, which is actually quite important.

There really wasn't much else to do that night, and the CRG's main team and the staff who set off with the team had already arrived in Stockholm, the venue of the Winter Major, at the end of last month, and the time difference across the world required such attention.

And the training and living facilities of the base left behind after they left naturally came to the hands of TDG, who lived here.

On the first night of their arrival, the players were not in the mood to experience the style of this domestic top two and the world's top five giant clubs, and most of them had indeed visited it before. But on the second day, these young men who had been fully rested did realize what was the gap between this base and the Tongzhou youth training base.

"This is not the same as the base of our youth team." Xia Zhen, a Carry player who had never visited the CRG main base before, sighed, "Not to mention anything else, with the computer here, I think my reaction can be eight or nine percentage points higher." ”

"It's useless." Yu Yang, who was seated next to him, shrugged, "The computer used for training is not an advantage, if you really play a game, the level of machines provided by the competition venue is uneven." ”

"That's right," nodded to another No. 1 player sitting on the other side of him, both of them have experience representing TDG in the Open Cup, and they still know a little about these things, "so when you get to the offline stage, you must start a training session or something else to try the level of the computer, but the easiest way is to click on the lowest image quality no matter where you are playing." ”

"The lowest image quality also has advantages, and many hero jewelry bells and whistles are not displayed at the lowest image quality."

Behind them, Shen Jiaqing and Emperor Shen interjected, many of the highest-level hero ornaments such as Immortals and Arcana in Dota will change the special effects of hero skills.

And some skills have more than one special effect, and most of the styles in the same position are more than one, so in Dota, the accessory itself is a small game.

It is known as "Ruins Nuan Nuan".

Of course, these conversations also reached Lu Xinlei's ears word for word, but this was nothing noteworthy to her.

The minimum image quality has been this way since she said goodbye to streaming, and while frame rate and network conditions don't play a key role in the game, they do psychologically make players feel more fluid.

And sometimes, it's not the hands that control the player to do some wonderful things, but the heart.

A significant portion of those scalp tingling operations can be reproduced in the hands of most players of a certain level, but they are shocking mainly because of the occasion in which they appear and the situation in which the manipulator releases them.

Blowing air conditioners and snorting Coke in your own air-conditioned room, the operations made on King Axe Island and the arena under the gaze of millions or even tens of millions of people, the actions made in the final and most critical team battle of the World Invitational Tournament are completely different concepts, and in such a situation, ensuring a brain that can think is the most important thing.

And when it comes to the simplest of operations, the "sense of control" that can be fed back by the low-quality high-frame-rate settings really helps the player feel that the hero and even the game can be controlled by themselves.

Of course, it's just a feeling, but having a feeling is a prerequisite for self-confidence.

"Okay, okay, the team we made an appointment with today is nw," Hai Ziming saw that the players basically came to the training room, and walked to the middle of the crowd and clapped his hands, "But today we are mainly going to play a starting lineup......

"Carnival, Xiao Zhen, you two play Carry and Yangzi Xiaolu, two pairs of two and two can form four groups, we still have to play today, but it is not a complete BO3...... To be exact, it is to play 8 games, and to play all four combinations to play 2 games. ”

"NW didn't get the official cup in this half, so this is already the most stressful training for our squad that we can touch," he tapped on the computer desk in his hand, "so you must try your best to play your own performance, the three brothers in the three, fourth and fifth positions are tired, you have no rotation, you can only play eight games." ”

"It's okay, it's okay."

There is no reason for them to refuse the game arranged by the coach, and from their own point of view, it is even more rare to directly meet the first-team team of the Capital League this time, and there is a chance to test how far they are from the kind of person they want to be.

"If it's all right, let's get ready to get started." He glanced at his phone, although he was only the head coach of the academy team, but this position was requested by the club himself, and with his qualifications, he could play a significant role in the main squad of CRG.

With his social circle, it is not very difficult to contact some members of the coaching staff of the first-team team, and arrange some friendly matches when the other party is also interested - but in order to take care of the mood of the players, he will not directly call the first-team team of the capital league to play the game.

Playing too much against a team that you really can't beat will make people stupid, which is a lesson in blood and tears.

But this time there are a few differences, firstly, he needs a stronger opponent to experiment with his team setup, and secondly......

He glanced at the still-silent girl and blinked.

There is still an inexplicable sense of unreality around her, delicate and unreal, and even in this environment that is so real that she is quiet and independent, as if she were in another world.

The head coach of the youth team didn't come up with any appropriate words in the end, so he could only continue according to the previous plan: "The other party is a first-team team in the upper middle and upper reaches of the C-League, and our team may not be able to meet a few times a year...... A strong team of this level is also something we will definitely encounter at ESL this time. ”

"Just ask, what do you want to do in this competition?"

He changed his tone and asked a different question.

The young people he asked could only look at each other for a while, they didn't know what their coach meant by asking this question.

The six big boys exchanged glances, and after a few seconds of pause, Yu Yang, the recognized leader among them, raised his head to look at Hai Ziming and opened his mouth:

"This time this ESL is directly invited to 16 teams, the group stage is four quarters and four groups, leaving half of the teams to play a single defeat ......"

TDG's veteran midlaner roughly analyzed the schedule and format: "As far as the news I have seen, although there are most teams that want to participate in OR and AJOR, there are several teams that have not played too well in the half-way league like NW. ”

"There's no reason why they won't take this opportunity to send a first-team team to find a game to maintain their condition," Yu Yang said, glanced at his head coach, and nodded, "So I think we should be able to make it out of the group stage this time, but we may not be able to go far with a single elimination in the main round...... It should be the quarterfinals to the semifinals. ”

"Very rational judgment."

Hai Ziming nodded, agreeing with his analysis, but immediately turned over the question: "But what I'm asking is, what results do you want to achieve?" ”

"That's it...... Let's just make it the top four," Wen Juncai, who was sitting on the side, took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, "It's unrealistic to play any higher......"

"I'm asking you what you think." The manager, who has a decent tonnage, paused and once again emphasized the core of his question, "I've never asked you this kind of question, I know that I used to ask 'where can you play', but this time it's different. ”

"Don't care about any strong team, don't care about any theoretical possibilities, don't care about whether you can beat it or not, I'll ask you, how many places do you want to win?"

"If you feel that you want to lose a few games early and go back to the base to sleep, you will directly say that you want to lose, and if you want to win the third place, you can make a difference and not be too much limelight, so you will directly say that you want to win the third place...... If you want to take the first place, you can say it directly. ”

"That's not." There was no need to take the lead in the eldest brother Yu Yang's speech, Nie Hongfu, who was sitting next to Hai Ziming, took over, "You don't need to pour chicken soup, we are all adults, I will say it bluntly, there should be no one who doesn't want to win the championship." ”

"Then let's just say it, how do we need to practice, what do we need to practice, in order to win this championship?"

"Heh," Hai Ziming was amused by the reaction that only a young man would make, he put his hand on Nie Hongfu's shoulder and looked at the people around him, "Big guys think like this?" ”

- Even Lu Xinlei, who really thinks that she can win a third place now, can't deny that as a person who is moving forward on this road, no one will refuse the word "champion".

"A team that doesn't want to win a championship won't win a championship, but just thinking about it will definitely not accomplish anything." Hai Ziming clapped his hands, "Yangzi, Xia Zhen, your first group will come up and fight first." ”
