Chapter 32: An Interview with the Cat God
Just blindly imitate, it is definitely impossible to play the desired effect. So in the passerby bureau, it is still the king to jump out early in the mixed level.
It is natural for a ground-shaker with such a style of play to only be level 3 or 4 in ten minutes, and it is even more common for him to not be able to jump for 30 minutes.
If you want to choose an MVP for this game, Ling Feng will give the MVP to Tong Tong.
is not only a few gullies in the early stage, but also Tong Tong's ravines that helped Wei Yushi complete the control and positioning when he did not jump in the middle stage.
But if there is really an MVP trophy, it will only be taken by Wei Yushi.
This is the difference between the front and back of the stage, assisting this position, always fulfilling others.
……
Wang Yafei and the others ended the semifinals of the upper bracket early, while Yunjia No. 1 Middle School was still fighting with the opponent on the main stage.
In the first game, they played their opponents for another hour, and in the end, they relied on their understanding of the line to win the victory.
The set that is currently underway has reached thirty-two minutes. Judging from the current situation, the situation of Yunjia No. 1 Middle School is not very optimistic, and they are at a disadvantage in terms of score and field.
However, their lineup has a higher margin for error, and their late-stage ability will be relatively stronger, as long as they can withstand this time, the outcome of the game is unknown.
Earlier today, an interview with the big cat god was published on the official website of the contest.
Q: Hello Cat God, I haven't seen you for a long time, why do you still think about developing a youth team after retiring?
A: Because I'm the kind of person who lives for Dota, and I feel like my life has lost its meaning without Dota. I've gained so much in Dota, fame, money, so I'm not doing it for fame or money now, I'm doing it purely just to continue my Dota dream.
Q: Then why did you choose a high school instead of a more professional semi-professional team?
A: That's because my cousin is also in this school, and he works in the middle school. He's very talented, and he's not below me, so maybe it's a family lineage (laughs). I think he's going to have a career path in the future, and I think he's going to be more accomplished than me, but he's not good yet. This time they competed, and I stopped by to help.
Q: In other words, are you doing it for private purposes?
A: At first, I was just trying to help my cousin, but the school valued me and wanted to hire me as a coach very formally. But people like me don't really value things like fame and fortune, and I'm mainly impressed by their enthusiasm. Both the team members and the school were very enthusiastic and thoughtful, so I agreed.
Q: If you become their coach, will you get paid?
A: The school wants to give me money, but I don't plan to ask for it. If I want money, I can choose to go live or attend a business event. Besides, I'm not short of money, I had a lot of bonuses when I was professional, and I continued to advertise after I retired.
Q: Our question is superficial, please forgive me. We know that Yunjia No. 1 Middle School has always been the overlord of Yunjia City, but in the provincial competition, it has not won the championship. Will your arrival help Yunjia No. 1 Middle School win the championship?
A: The Yunjia No. 1 Middle School Dota team has won numerous awards, and even if I don't come, they are the favorites to win the provincial competition. But now that I'm here, I'm going to make sure they win this competition, and I have that confidence. I forgot to mention that before the start of this competition, we won first place in an online Dota Contest held by a community. This online competition is open to the whole country, there are many semi-professional teams signed up for the competition, and we can get the first place in this competition, which shows that we have the level of a semi-professional team.
Q: Are you so confident? But since the start of the tournament, it hasn't been easy for you.
A: It's all a group draw, and I know it's also to ensure ratings, but it's not right to have a team in one and a half districts gathered. Even though it's a double-elimination format, it can't be like this. I'm not saying what will happen to our team, we don't have a problem in any half, but it will hurt a lot of other strong teams. They can go to the other half and go to the final, but now they need to compete with us to make it to the final.
Q: Is the cat god trying to say that the other half is too weak?
A: It's a bit cruel, but I have to say that that's what it looks like. I've seen a lot of teams that have a lot of hope, but we can only make it to the lower bracket. If they were in the other half, I don't think they would have ended up like this. I'm very objective, and if I were to be more subjective, I would think that this kind of draw is fine. Because in this way, as long as we enter the upper bracket finals, we can face weaker opponents, which is equivalent to entering the finals in advance.
Q: Isn't that fair to the teams in the other half of the district?
A: I said that I am very objective, and I used to be known for being outspoken. All games are winner-takes-all, just look at the past records to know, the last champion and runner-up are all in our half, then the other half will naturally be weak. It's not fair or unfair, I'm just talking about it with fairness.
Q: But we saw that the other half of the competition was also very exciting, especially the Yunjia Health School, which is also from Yunjia City, and they left a deep impression on the audience by passing all the way.
A: That's even more indicative, I know this team too well, we've played against them six times before, and our record is six wins and zero losses. Our Yunjia No. 1 Middle School can only advance in this half of the district, but they can easily pass all the way, doesn't this show anything?
Q: Wow! It turns out that the past record between you will be one-sided.
A: We played against each other four times in the city and we kept a clean sheet against them, and in the last online tournament they happened to sign up and we won two more games comfortably.
Q: It's really detailed, but they're likely to make it out of that half now, and if that's the case, the two teams will meet again and it's going to be a city derby.
A: yes, we were all just watching our own games, so we didn't get to know them, did they all make it to the finals? (Seems surprised)
Q: Yes, we noticed that you used the word clean sheet during the interview just now. And Yunjia Guard School also has a former professional player as their coach, and this person is also your old friend Ling Feng.
A: Collapse wind, I'm kidding, don't write like that, lest my brother Feng be unhappy. Brother Feng also chose to be a coach after retiring, but he didn't do it long before he changed careers. We don't know much about where he went later, I heard that life is quite tight, we all know that Brother Feng retired because of an injury on his hand. And Brother Feng's career was not all smooth sailing, he always missed out on the championship. (Brother Feng, don't hit me)
To be honest, I didn't expect Brother Feng to come to participate in the affairs of middle school students, and I also saw Brother Feng during the city competition, and I knew that he was working as a coach for Yunjia Wei School.
If you want me to say that Brother Feng is a dream that has not been extinguished, he came to be a coach to realize a dream. But our brother Feng is still very good, and when he first arrived, he brought the guard school into the city runner-up, and you also know that the team of the guard school is a women's team, don't think about it. It's just that the women's team is not easy to win a second place.
A: They're the runners-up, and you're the champions, right? It looks like the rivalry between you will continue from the professional arena to the high school arena. It will continue from the player to the coach.
Q: It's not that serious, I respect Brother Feng very much. When I used to play games, Brother Feng often taught me, and at that time, I thought that if Brother Feng changed to coach, he would be very successful. Now that he's able to bring this kind of results, I think he's succeeded. As for the champion and runner-up, this thing still has to speak with strength, and we are only coaches, and we can't replace the players to play, so this doesn't mean anything. If you really want to say it, Brother Feng is unlucky, and he will encounter obstacles every time. I feel sorry for him.
A: Will you also be their obstacle in this competition? As things stand, there is a good chance that you will meet in the finals, and judging by the past results you mentioned, you should be able to win.
Q: No, you're a good or bad question, I want to build character, I can't say we're going to win, and I'm not going to say we're going to change our record to 8-0. (Editor: Didn't you already say this)
A: It seems that if the two teams do meet in the finals, it will be a game full of highlights. Love and kill each other, you will continue to write the frontier on this stage. In this way, let's let the cat god predict the outcome of the game, if you really meet in the finals, then who will win in the end?
Q: If you really want to predict, then I still predict that we will win. But will they be able to make it to the finals, there should still be some strong teams in that half (do the reflections)
Thank you Cat God for accepting our interview, and after that, we will also interview Ling Feng, the coach of Yunjia Guardian School, and then we will see what the former legendary captain of China Dota will say about Cat God......
"Look at this wave of regiments, Yunjia No. 1 Middle School of the Radiant side has been pushed down, this wave of Dire has lost three generals, and Radiant has only paid a price for assistance. It seems that the Dire is still too anxious here, they are too anxious to go up this wave, and they are really too anxious...... "Brother Tao is combining the replay footage, doing a very delicate analysis.
"Hello Brother Feng, we are reporters from XX Network, last time you said you didn't have time, can you have time to accept our interview now?"
"Yes, I remember the last time we met, and it was going to be fine."
"Won't bother you watching the game?"
"It's okay, you ask."
