Chapter 434: Changed Format
"Have the rules changed? Why didn't you say it before? "Lonely was shocked.
They're professionals, and it's normal for them to compete, so how can they have already played and haven't figured out the schedule and rules?
Moreover, QGC is held twice a year, and the soldiers who have done in-depth research can already memorize the relevant rules and regulations. However, what if the rules of the tournament change, they just play every game normally. Isn't it because they didn't figure out the schedule that the organizing committee wouldn't let them play? It's just some preparation, and the impact won't be that big, right? Why do they all have such expressions?
Lonely frowned and said, "It doesn't matter if the rules of the event have changed, right?" The promotion quota is determined, as long as we win the championship, no matter how its rules change, it will have no impact on us, right? ”
Chang Junyu gritted his teeth and said: "I'm afraid the impact is very big." Come and take a look. As he spoke, he handed the phone that had already adjusted the content of the web page to Lonely.
Lonely took the phone suspiciously, looked down curiously, his face changed instantly, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "Damn!" How can it be? ”
The same words were spit out from the mouth of the soldier on the opposite side at this time.
"Holy! How can it be? After listening to Ning Yu's report, the soldier's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
Ning Yu came to the computer, logged in to QQ, downloaded a WORD file from the group file of the competition, opened it, and beckoned the soldiers to go over and look at it.
According to the previous QGC rules, the first stage is the audition, where the top eight are selected first, and then the top eight are matched, and the points are obtained based on the results of the game, and the points accumulated in a few weeks will be the highest team will be able to win the championship and qualify for the KPL qualifiers at the same time.
The two consecutive QGC Open Group competitions have been like this, so the GI thought that this time the QGC Summer Tournament would be the same, so he didn't study the game regulations and competition system too much.
Who would have thought that this year's QGC Summer Tournament has undergone earth-shaking changes in the competition system.
According to the new rules, the Open Division will only be held for one week and will be divided into four parts.
The first part is the audition, the BO1 format, where the top 32 in the open group are determined first; The second part is the 32-in-4 match, which is also a BO1 format, each team plays three games according to the group, the winner advances, the loser is eliminated, and the top four of the open group are determined; The third part is the semi-finals, BO3 format, four teams face off in pairs, the winner enters the finals, and the loser competes for the third place in the open group; The final part is the finals, where the two teams will compete in a BO3 format to determine the champion and runner-up of the open group.
As a price, the champion of the open group is no longer qualified for the KPL qualifiers, but a wild card for the QGC invitation group, and the wild card of the wild card team will join the QGC invitation group in the form of a wild card team, and directly collide with many strong teams in the KPL qualifiers to compete for the three valuable places that advance to the KPL qualifiers.
It stands to reason that with the current strength of the Wild Wolf team, they are not afraid of any opponent at all, even if it is a team that comes down from the KPL qualifiers, they dare to fight with them head-on, and are confident to enter the top three of the invitation group and get tickets to the KPL qualifiers.
But the key problem is that in the QGC open group, there is a team called The King team, abbreviated as TK team, which is the team that has reached a partnership with the Wolf team.
According to the agreement between the two sides at the beginning, the two teams must not meet in the minor league, and must avoid it to avoid handing over too many hole cards in the minor league, giving the opponent the opportunity to study them, and making them fall into a passive situation in the KPL qualifiers.
The two teams have to play several training matches every week, and they are very familiar with each other's wins and losses, and if they want to win each other, they will definitely not be able to show some housekeeping skills and show a few hole cards. And in the secondary league, they directly show their hole cards, or even directly hand over their trump cards, which is a situation that none of them wants.
"What now?" Ning Yu asked the soldier.
The soldier lit a cigarette in annoyance, smiled wryly and sighed, "I don't fucking know what to do anymore." Who knew that the rules of this tournament had changed, I had known that this was the case, how good it would be for us to play WGC, why bother playing QGC? This responsibility lies with me. ”
Ning Yu could only smile bitterly at this, not knowing what to say.
Now that things have become like this, not only the coach is responsible, but he, the captain, is also very responsible, but there is no point in blaming anyone now, the most important thing to study is what they should do next.
Keep playing? But what's the point of fighting?
The soldier pretended to smile indifferently, got up and patted Ning Yu's shoulder and comforted: "Don't think about it so much yet, you guys rest first." By the way, the video of the game has been saved, right? After dinner, let's have a few reviews, check and fill in the gaps, and sharpen the gun. Don't put too much pressure, isn't the purpose of our original QGC to train troops? Play well in the next game, no matter what, take the championship of the open group first, and the prize money is a lot of money. ”
"Hmm." Ning Yu nodded heavily, barely squeezed out a smile, didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out.
At this time, Gu Sha and the others had already come out of Chang Junyu's house, and all the people gathered on the sofa in the living room of the soldier's house.
The TV on the wall was on, but there was no program, and it was estimated that everyone who knew their current situation really couldn't be in any mood to watch TV or do anything else, they should be waiting for the results that Ning Yu and the soldiers had discussed.
"How?"
Seeing Ning Yu coming out of the soldier's room, everyone stood up nervously and surrounded Ning Yu in the middle.
Ning Yu said: "Keep playing, win the championship of the open group first, and talk about the rest later." ”
Han Xi was a little anxious: "What do you mean to talk about it later?" If you want me to say, let's care what their TK team thinks, if they get a wild card, let's go directly to the invitation group to stir it upside down, and let those scum see how strong the future KPL champion is. ”
Ning Yu shook his head and said, "Let's not discuss this for now, let's rest and rest, it's really hard to play for a day." By the way, the GI coach said, after dinner, we have to review today's game, if anyone wants to go out, you must remember not to come back too late. ”
After arranging everyone, Ning Yu stretched his waist, pretended to be very relaxed and walked to the balcony, and then put his hands in his pockets in a dull manner, looking at the scenery outside the window in a daze.
The goal of their Wild Wolf team is in the KPL, how can they simply look at the present? If they and the TK team both participate in the QGC Invitational Group competition, they will definitely lose both, no matter which side advances, or the lucky two sides advance, when it comes to the KPL qualifiers, there will inevitably be problems.
You must know that the teams that are on the journey to the KPL are most concerned about the QGC game at this stage, because a large part of the teams in the QGC invitation group are teams from the KPL qualifiers, which can be regarded as the most competitive among the four major sub-leagues.
With so many pairs of eyes under the gaze, any team that comes up with a unique but effective lineup will inevitably be studied in depth, and the results will inevitably be very bad.
If you really win the championship in the open group, do you want to go one step further and enter the invitation group with a wild card?
This is really a problem, and Ning Yu is also at a loss for the time being, completely unsure of what to do. Perhaps, the GI could have thought of a better decision.
At this moment, Ning Yu suddenly felt someone gently tap him on the shoulder, he turned his head to look back, and saw the smiling Lonely Evil walking from behind him to his side.
"What are you looking at?" Lonely asked.
Ning Yu said: "There is no specific thing to see, just relax and relax your eyes." We spend more than ten hours a day in front of our phones, and the pressure on our eyes is too great, and I find that we are always blinking uncontrollably frequently, which is not a good sign. ”
Lonely nodded and said, "Yes, the intensity of your eyes is too strong, and it is quite tiring." But there is no way, this is the path we have chosen, even with tears, we have to finish him. ”
Ning Yu was amused by Lonely's words: "Needless to say, it's so serious, I just feel tired from my eyes occasionally, just get up and look at the scenery in the distance, that's what is written in the textbooks of primary school students." ”
"It's better to do eye exercises."
"It's useless, if it were useful, there wouldn't be so many people in our country who wear glasses. By the way, did you call that former teammate of yours? Why did they surrender? ”
Gu Xu sighed, and simply described the content of 9528 and his call roughly, and Ning Yu was also embarrassed when he heard it.
It is conceivable that if Ning Yu had not been framed by Qiu Dong and had not been expelled from the NS club, it would be impossible for him to know these people around him now, and he may still be crawling in the middle and lower levels of the KPL, or he may have become the main player in the team and become a star player, or like 9528, he was kicked out of the professional circle, and in another way, he maintained his fragile, pitiful, ridiculous, pathetic, and lamentable dreams.
"Our future will be very good." Ning Yu said.
Lonely nodded and said, "It will be." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, looking out the window.
At this time, the sunset has been hung on the horizon, dyeing the sunset red with gold edges, and the layers are spread out in the sky like a blue curtain, gorgeous and beautiful, just like today's desire, just like the future is far away.
In this life, people will do a lot of things, and there are many and mistakes, which cannot be avoided. I only hope that there are more right than wrong, so that you can only leave a little regret without a trace of unwillingness and complaint.
There are many young people like Ning Yu and them, but to the radiant distance, only the road of "struggle" can be walked, and only a limited number of people can walk.
"Could it be us?" Ning Yu suddenly couldn't help but say.
"What?" Lonely was stunned.
"Champion." Ning Yu said.
Lonely smiled: "Definitely! ”
