Chapter 1042 Montreal Major, Canada
If you start playing from the first round, you need to play a lot of rounds.
Last year, a total of 9 rounds of competition were played to determine the 4 winning teams of the audition.
In these 9 rounds, it is necessary to ensure that the team has enough strength and 0 mistakes to successfully break through the competition.
This fault tolerance is very low.
Once there is a little accident, go straight out.
And there's not a hint of buffering.
……
Now PHX and DRG have to do to continuously improve their strength.
Let your strength crush the arena.
Minimize fault tolerance.
Today's qualifiers are 72 into 18 and 18 into 8.
Such a format.
Therefore, there may be a little more professional teams invited than in previous years, so this audition may also be a little better than in previous years.
With the current level of PHX and DRG, there is no problem at all in playing the auditions, after all, it can be said that the top 6.70 teams in China have been directly invited to the knockout round.
With the level of the third-tier team, it is difficult to deal too much damage to PHX and DRG.
But because there are only two games in a round, no one can say for sure.
Only the top 3 will advance to the next round.
According to the promotion line in previous years, the promotion line is about 30 points.
Two games with more than 30 points are generally stable, but the situation is different in each group, and there was once a group where the fourth-placed team scored 37 points in two games and did not advance to the next round.
It's rare, but it's not impossible.
PHX and DRG are not ready, in fact, it is also about their own mentality not being put in the place where it should be.
They are now nervous from the bottom of their hearts when they hear the three words of the audition......
You can only keep training to improve your ability.
……
After the Montreal Major in Canada this time, CSC will return to the club, and Zhou Yang will not let PHX go to the CSC club for training again.
At most, CSC and PHX will play a training match.
For CSC, they also have to prepare for their own competitions and don't have as much energy and time to focus on PHX.
And they're not obligated to help PHX, even though they do.
The players all feel that time flies quite quickly, and it feels like almost a year has passed.
The study of Phoenix Esports Academy has also come to an end.
Basically, the players who should be trained have also been trained, and the players who can't practice are also difficult to train.
There is also the last 1st on-campus assessment, and then the final 12th assessment.
It will also be a test that will determine their fate.
The learning situation of this year's students is still better than Zhou Yang and Wang Hao expected.
At least in their opinion, there are more people who have the ability and potential to enter the professional circle than they predicted at the beginning.
Once this group of students enters the glorious professional arena in China.
It will definitely make the entire circle of glory undergo a big reshuffle.
The glorious era of China is coming.
……
In the World Qualifiers of the Minor in Montreal, Canada, the Chinese team also played the best record in history.
IFCD and MTX won the 1st and 3rd places and successfully advanced to the main competition!
In this way, the 5 Chinese teams who were directly invited to the Major were added before!
For the first time in the history of the Chinese team, 7 teams participated in the world competition!
Seeing that IFCD is now so stable, Wang Hao finally let go of his heart.
The ceiling is not very high, but now IFCD has a place in the world.
IFCD has played Minor for more than 1 year, and now they have played experience, and they really can't compete with teams like CSC, DK, ISO in China, but their strength is still very strong when it comes to Minor.
Group of the Major group stage.
CSC and DK are in Group A.
IFCD is in Group B.
Aster and MTX are in Group C.
ISO and TYG in Group D.
……
The grouping of the Group Stage of the Major is not very important, but there is a lot of attention.
The first is to see what kind of wonderful performance CSC can bring, and what kind of situation it will be like to play a team like EG and Satan.
The second is to look at the 7 Chinese teams, how many of them can successfully reach the finals.
On June 25, the first day of the group stage began.
Zhou Yang also brought 10 players from PHX and DRG to watch this game!
And Wang Hao analyzed this game for the whole school, just like at the beginning.
Because the analysis of the two teams that have to compete with the professional team and the analysis of the average student is definitely different.
"In the group stage, only strong teams can play leisurely."
"The average team doesn't have this kind of strength, so they can only play every game."
"There are also groups that are particular, and the most advantageous ones are the two groups AB, of course, I am for those teams that are not strong teams."
Zhou Yang explained to the 10 team members, and K God and Lin Ze on the side were also a little surprised.
Groups A and B are favorable?
How come they never heard......
"Why?"
"Because there are only two groups AB that don't need to play two days in a row."
"The group stage of the tournament is 6 days of AB, CD, AC, BD, AD, BC."
"Group A is going to play Day 1, Day 3 and Day 5, Group B is going to play Day 1, Day 4 and Day 6."
"Both groups have back-to-back games to play, and you should know that playing one day will have an impact on the second day."
Zhou Yang explained.
It also made everyone suddenly realize, K God and Lin Ze thought about it, it seems to be this statement, Ceb smiled, it is indeed the case, and Group B is better than Group A.
"Group B is more favourable than Group A, the first reason is that he plays at the bottom, 1, 4, 6 days, and the second reason is that they play on the 6th day."
"On the last day of the game, you can know how many points you need to qualify for the finals, and you can decide your tactics by the points."
"But on the fifth day, the team can only rush forward as best they can, and if the points are about the same, they can only leave their fate in the hands of others."
"It's a simple truth, just know it."
Zhou Yang said.
Everyone nodded, this is indeed feasible in the Major, but the small advantage of Glory is gone, because it is not the points of all 36 teams in the same group.
Finally, the game begins.
On the first day of the competition, the Chinese teams included CSC, DK and IFCD, and GenG and EG were also present for the strong foreign teams.
Satan is in Group D and is not playing CSC on the first day.
