Chapter 25: Bottlenecks

The last battle of the WT team had to do it, although the momentum was huge, but the equipment was too different, and it was already an unexpected result to be able to forcibly replace the two, and this game has been characterized by everyone as a must defeat since the middle of the game.

As the commander of the team, Lan Yu naturally knew this, but he still commanded his teammates to defend with all his might, and he didn't feel that this was a waste of time, and although he lost the second game after the most debacle, and it was a fiasco, the expressions of the team members were still very calm, and when the EDG team came over to shake hands, the members of the WT team showed sincere smiles, and even the EDG team didn't know why they were so happy.

The WT team has not been exhausted for a long time like the first game and then won heartily, the whole court with the EDG team around, the opponent obviously took a set of nuclear bomb-like lineup, but just couldn't find the opportunity to start the group, that kind of victory to the WT team can be imagined, and the second EDG went all out, but also gave the WT team a rout that has rarely been had, this feeling really made them feel fluctuating.

From the beginning of the professional league to the present, the WT team has been breaking through and improving, but after the summer season, several people feel that their strength seems to have come to an end, there are games every week, everyone is fighting with a familiar lineup, there may be good highlights in the game, but gradually it tends to be flat and unchanged.

This is the most taboo for the WT team, and the reason for this situation is nothing more than that the personal strength of the players has reached a bottleneck, and it is difficult to play too many tricks in front of evenly matched opponents.

So they laugh.

The score of one to one is acceptable, each score is a point and ends peacefully, the EDG team is also regretful with a hint of happiness, when the first game lost, they thought they were going home with zero points today, but they didn't expect the change of rhythm in the second game to make the WT team not react, a big win also made their momentum back to the peak, the first round only needs to touch the WT team once, and the EDG team can use this tone to grab points with all their might.

No team is willing to touch the WT team, first of all, because their undefeated golden signboard is placed there, and the official is also very uninteresting to often add slogans such as "Can the XX team break the undefeated golden body of the WT team" to attract attention, once it is not broken, their team will be under a lot of pressure; Secondly, it is also the recognition and respect of these professional teams for the strength of this team that has just risen for a year.

No team wants to steal points from the WT team, but it doesn't mean that the professional teams don't want to play against this strong team, the WT team is now like a whetstone, they can handle any lineup, and they can more intuitively reflect the problems in their minds.

This week's games were also very exciting, with the matches of the major teams ending one after another at the weekend, which also brought a lot of pressure to the teams at the top of the standings.

Team WE lost both games against the powerful OMG team, relinquishing the top spot in the standings, and the OMG team won 2-0 to increase the points to seven points.

The IG team won the academy team 2-0, and the points went from an embarrassing one point to four points at the beginning, while the academy team started with three consecutive defeats and has not yet found the feeling of a professional league.

The YG team also did not find the feeling, they showed a bit of timidity in the face of the strong rise of the royal team this season, obviously played a good advantage in the early two games, but lost the good game due to the most uncalm mistake after the last game, and lost both games as the youth training, and the royal team rose from two points to five points, closely catching up with the team in front of them.

Now the first team in the standings is the OMG team, which is at the top of the list with seven points, the second WE team still maintains a high score of six points with two consecutive wins in the opening game, the third place is the WT team, the royal team and the EDG team, all of which are five points, the fourth place is the IG team, followed by the two new teams.

This start is quite normal, the OMG team is outstanding, although there have been personnel changes over the years, but the training mode and the personal strength of the players have always been very good, and it has always been a very competitive strong team in China, and the WE team has a place in the qualifiers, and the efforts of the summer tournament are only for honor and bonuses, so victory or defeat is not important.

At the end of the third week of the game, the focus was basically on the collision of several strong teams, and the results were similar to everyone's expectations, except for the WE team, which was a little surprising that the team lost both games.

The WT team took the bus back to H City, the good news is that Mu Huan's foot injury has improved a lot, and he basically didn't feel any discomfort in this week's game, but now he has to be on crutches if he wants to move independently, and Wang Yan is of course always by his side.

Despite this, the club's doctors still didn't dare to relax in the slightest, as the saying goes, "it takes a hundred days to break your muscles and bones", and if Mu Huan wants to recover completely, it is estimated that he will have to wait until the World Finals start - provided that Mu Huan's recovery ability is super strong.

It is precisely with this in mind that Mu Huan insisted on high-intensity training and physical recovery training, and he and Wang Yan regretted missing the playoffs in the spring because of a foot injury.

After returning to H City, it was another two quiet days, but on the third day, all the players had to leave the club to go to the e-sports stadium in H City, H City has set the designated city in China for the World Finals, for this honor and in order to make the city's reputation resounding all over the world, Hengyu Real Estate Group and H City officials can be described as painstaking.

Yuan Xiaoye because he is an architectural design professional, so he did a simple design for Hengyu Real Estate Group before, or rushed out overnight, the design has been passed under the carving of more professional designers, for which Yuan Xiaoye received an extra salary of Hengyu Real Estate Group under the premise of getting some more bonuses, and although he only made the original draft, his name is still ranked first in the most post-signature signature, which is also considered to be these designers to promote the juniors, without grabbing credit, which is rare in the industry.

Of course, it is also because Yuan Xiaoye is in the WT Club's relationship, and he is in love, even if you deliberately don't mention it sometimes, you can't avoid it.

Today, the main reason is that the group has made a model according to the design drawings, and the improved appearance of the e-sports hall has been reduced to a three-dimensional model for Lan Yu to see, and I also want to hear the views of these players on this design, which is very important, and all aspects must be considered, Lan Yu They are the first to put forward opinions, on this basis, the designers have to further discuss the feasibility and the cost of consumables.

Lan Yu and the others couldn't take their eyes off when they saw the model at a glance, Yuan Xiaoye's design had also been talked to Lan Yu before, but it was more abstract, if this kind of thing is said to the layman, it is nothing more than where a door is added, where a corridor is installed, but when this design is intuitively displayed in front of the public, you will know how great the effect is.

"Yes, this style is very young, I don't know if it's my illusion, it looks like it's a feeling of high spirits, what do you think?" Lan Yu turned his head to look at his friends.

Everyone's initial idea was to bury Yuan Xiaoye's design on the spot, but they didn't expect that after processing and three-dimensionalization, the style of the e-sports stadium that was originally quite familiar changed completely, and this style is indeed something they agree with.

"I thought you were messing around when you go to class every day, but I didn't expect you to really study." Chen Chuxiao said with admiration.

Yuan Xiaoye's face darkened and said, "Talent, is this called talent?" Then he glanced back at the designers who were smiling and not talking, and said a little ashamedly: "Okay, in fact, I just made a suggestion and drew an idea, and it was these real designers who made these concretized, and I didn't dare to be greedy." ”

"It's good to have ideas, and the most afraid of doing design is not imaginative, and when you are not a professional player, you can consider coming to the company for an internship, I believe that many of your ideas have the opportunity to become reality." A designer in his forties said with a smile.

Yuan Xiaoye hurriedly agreed, just like Wang Yan wanted to be an excellent financial officer, Yuan Xiaoye chose the architectural design industry at the beginning, how could it not be his greatest wish, but he didn't expect that now he has the opportunity to make his dream come true, and this joy is even more intense than when the WT team entered the professional league.

A few people watched around for a while, and put forward their own opinions on some details, and some people next to them recorded all the details and went back to discuss, since the e-sports stadium has been built into a young venue, it is natural to follow the ideas of young people.

Originally, there was a small business event, but the WT team decided not to participate, and the company did not advertise that the WT team would attend in the early stage, so the time saved went back to prepare for the competition.

It's rare for everyone to have a sense of bottleneck again, and although the summer league has only passed three weeks, the time flies, and the qualifiers in China are not far away, the WT team still hopes to be able to improve again before the qualifiers start, and three out of four sounds good, but the only one who loses is the most painful, and the WT team doesn't want to be that team.

Now the training is basically single and double volleyball in addition to joint training, everyone is fighting in Hanbok, the style of play here is more aggressive, and with the improvement of several members of the WT team, there are also occasional encounters with professional players in the Korean OGN League, and the way these professional players play and their personal strength have left a deep impression on the WT team members.

There is a gap to admit, and only then can there be a breakthrough, Lan Yu and others have never felt that they are already the number one in the world, and there are many times when they are deflated when facing Korean professional players, but occasionally they will play wonderful performances, these are all efforts to break through the bottleneck.

Lan Yu used to always like to watch videos silently when other teammates were in the double row, but now in addition to watching videos to learn, he has also begun to practice alone, not only in Hanbok, but also in the national costume and even the American costume may come to his own game with the rise.

There are too many actors in the national uniform, and many times they are played by inexplicable actor teammates, Lan Yu is not angry, they are already one of the top teams in the professional league, how to account for the gains and losses of a game in the qualifying round, whenever Lan Yu encounters this incident, he will always smile and say how much money they give you, I can give double.

And more often, Lan Yu will choose to be in a double row with the members of the C9 team and the TSM team in the United States, since I went to Los Angeles and met those professional players face-to-face, the communication and contact with each other has also increased, especially Hai, every time he is in a double row with Lan Yu, he is willing to give him the mid laner position, which is respectful in addition to trust, fortunately, Lan Yu has never let him down, and now there is a joke circulating on the C9 team: If you want to score, hug Lan Yu's thighs.
