In the regular season of the Reincarnation Cup, we had a fight against the reorganized Phoenix Stone team, although Xie Liuying defeated the first-class female player Tian Jing in an informal duel before the game, our team lost to Phoenix Stone due to poor performance in the subsequent game, which also made Xie Liuying suffer a lot of doubts at the time. And this unexpected encounter in the knockout round of the Open Cup can be said to be a good opportunity for revenge.

Of course, the current Phoenix Stone is by no means the "soft persimmon" at the beginning of the year, they can beat Tianyuan in the group stage to get the first place, there must be something outstanding, and there is more than one person in the team who is difficult to deal with.

The first is Cai Xun, who was originally the core position of the team ID "Money Essence", this player was originally known for his excellent on-field command, and in the past few seasons, although the Phoenix Stone team he led has repeatedly made people shine, but the results have not been satisfactory. And in the eyes of most players, his own operation and strength are indeed not very good.

The strange thing is that after Coach Liu Bowen and several other outstanding players joined this season, Cai Xun's personal strength, which had obviously come to the middle of his career, suddenly took a qualitative leap. Many match analysts believe that Cai Xun's operational improvement is due to the fact that coach Liu Bowen taught him some secrets of commanding, allowing him to command more efficiently, and at the same time, due to the enhancement of opponents' teammates, his ability to understand complex tactics has also improved. The combination of the two reduced the pressure on Cai Xun's command and allowed him to concentrate more on the operation. In other words, his real strength is his strong performance since the summer season, and he only seemed to be "not very good at operating" because he spent too much energy on command.

Another player to watch out for is Lei Wei, who has the ID "Folk Simplicity", who, like Tian Jing, also transferred to the Phoenix Stone team in the offseason. He himself is a gunslinger who has made a statement in the past two years, and because of his fierce play, he is nicknamed "Folk Style" by players. And his existence made Brother Tian's "Singing Gun in the Wind" system, which had no successor in the Phoenix Stone team after retiring. And this is the greatest recognition of his personal strength and teamwork ability.

Zhou Quan and Qin Xiang, who stayed in the Phoenix Stone team's spring season, have also made great progress this year, and they can provide the team with two sets of tactics of "one attack and one defense" by rotating on the court.

Of course, the biggest headache is the core of the team that forgot worries last year, and this year's transfer to Phoenix Stone is rising. Seeing that the Phoenix Stone team soared into the sky in the second half of this year, many people are saying that the strong team is not last year's worry-forgetting team, but the strong one is just the wind. This man, who is probably the best archer in the history of the league, is the culprit responsible for our last defeat.

When I first met Xie Liuying, she was a relatively well-rounded player, but if you want to fairly evaluate her strength, at that time, her long-range was not as sure as it is now, and her close-range combat was not as stable as it is now, and her strongest point is probably the "medium range" range for archers. At this distance, she has been strong since the day I met her, and even today, after making up for other shortcomings, the middle distance can still be called her "trump card".

So from the minor league to the top league, I haven't seen any archers, no, it should be said that any player with a ranged weapon dares to shoot at this distance.

But in the game against the Phoenix Stone team that day, Feng Qi not only decisively fought against his senior sister in this position, but also won half a move, which made our team lose the game in a rare way due to the suppression of long-range firepower.

In short, the most terrifying thing about the Phoenix Stone team now is not how strong the individual strength is, but the fact that these players who have been fighting for many years suddenly got together and actually had a wonderful chemical reaction, and there is a feeling of "meeting the right person". Now they have a harmonious atmosphere in the team, a changeable style of play, a steady mentality, a strong desire to win, and an opponent with few weaknesses.

But our ultimate goal is to win the championship, to beat your team, and this is a must-win match. What's more, now that we have solved the culprit behind the scenes, we have lifted the burden from our shoulders, and we can just give it a go.

After sufficient preparation, the time came to the day of the competition, but the weather was not beautiful, and the seaside city of S City suddenly became foggy from the morning due to the change in temperature, and there was no competition area until the afternoon of the competition. Due to poor visibility, the vehicle was moving very slowly, and although we set off early, the time was already tight when we arrived at the scene, and the same was true for the Phoenix Stone team. So the event officials temporarily decided to cancel the makeup part and let the game start directly.

It's very much in line with my personal wishes, and God knows how uncomfortable it is to have a thick layer of powder on my face before the start of the race, and even though it's winter, it's not to mention a little sweat and oil on my face in such a sweltering tropical city. With no makeup, I believe I can play at a better level.

Of course, not everyone likes to wear no makeup, before the start of the competition, I heard that the makeup session was canceled, Xie Liuying still took out her makeup box and simply made it twice in the mirror, although I couldn't understand what she was doing, but in short, she only came on after putting on some light makeup. I know girls pay a lot of attention to their image in front of the camera, but her performance in today's game is very important, and I can't help but be a little worried when I see that she has nothing to do with the game before the game.

Xie Liuying saw me staring at her makeup on the spot, so she gave me a blank look and said, "What are you looking at?" I'm preparing for the post-match interview. ”

As we all know, only the winning side of the match can be interviewed by the host after the game.

During the short pre-match meeting, the coaching staff focused on the fight for the repechage zone. Since the game doesn't provide such a training environment in the normal mode, we haven't tried the current respawn mechanic in training matches. At the same time, since this is our first season as a team, no one has ever played in the Open Cup, which means that no one has ever experienced this format.

Correspondingly, the Fengqi, tranquil and simple folk customs of the Phoenix Stone team have experience in the open cup knockout tournament, so we are very unadvantageous in this regard. Even the pre-match preparation can only start with the video footage of the matches of other teams in the past, and there is no way to actually practice hands-on.

The reason why the league does not provide such a training environment is because the resurrection mechanism can test a team's adaptability, and this is a manifestation of the team's hard power.
