If someone asks who is more important in the solo game or the team game, then it will definitely make anyone laugh out of their teeth instantly, because this can't be called a question at all, I believe that as long as you have a little IA competitive common sense, you can give a very exact answer, up to seventy or eighty years old, down to seven or eight years old children, no exception.

After all, even if you win a single game, it will only be two points, but what about the team game? However, there are as many as five points, which means that even if all four singles matches in a certain round are lost, as long as they win in the team match, in fact, in terms of the total score of a single round, they are only one point behind.

And often in the standings where the score is in a state of stalemate, only by winning the team game can you really open the gap between yourself and your opponents, so it is not only Xiong Tianci who attaches importance to the victory of the team game, it can be said that any club in the entire IA league will not joke about the team game, let alone use the team game as a training ground for newcomers.

But it is such an important team competition, in Lin Xi's opinion, he wants to let Hou Ziang play a pure new game with poor basic skills, which is more like a broken jar.

But in fact? Of course not.

Maybe Xiong Tianci did not affirm Hou Ziang like he affirmed Hua Qingqing, but only said that he would consider it, but this does not mean that Xiong Tianci directly rejected Lin Xi's suggestion.

Because in all fairness, he actually did not exclude letting Hou Ziang play in the team competition, let alone deny the strength shown by Hou Ziang and Hua Qingqing in the team competition.

Even if Hou Ziang is still a certain distance from Xiong Tianci's expectations, this is only limited to Hou Ziang's 1v1 solo battle.

Judging from Hou Ziang's recent training, as long as Hou Ziang enters the group confrontation training, his tactical characteristics can be magnified several times in an instant, especially with the cooperation of Hua Qingqing, the weaknesses exposed by Hou Ziang in the single battle are almost negligible, and the cooperation of the two of them can make it difficult for Xiong Tianci and Wu Long to break through together, which is definitely a performance that one plus one is greater than two.

The single game is weak, but the team game can shine.

It's hard to believe such a situation that deviates from common sense, but such a strange thing happened to Hou Ziang.

So in order to find out the reason, Xiong Tianci and Lin Xi even spent a long time looking through all Hou Ziang's recent video records.

And the result can be said to be surprising and helpless.

The surprise was that they found that Hou Ziang had a good overall view of the battlefield, and could know most of the battle dynamics in team matches, and on the basis of the overall situation, Hou Ziang had a rare talent for fire support.

Through the analysis of the field, whether it is interrupting the opponent's attack or providing covering support for his own team, Hou Ziang can appear in the right position and provide the right amount of firepower.

Just like when he cooperated with Hua Qingqing to fight, many times he didn't need Hua Qingqing to command at all, Hou Ziang had already comprehended the tactical position, not only could he cooperate with her attack, but also cleared the surrounding obstacles and troubles for Hua Qingqing in the form of close-quarters firepower without disrupting the rhythm of Hua Qingqing's attack, as if he was the guardian saint of Hua Qingqing's side.

A rare No. 2 player in firepower, this is Xiong Tianci and Lin Xi's only judgment on Hou Ziang's tactical characteristics.

The second position of firepower is a support role that never plays the main attack, but only carries out defensive counterattacks around the main attack IA.

Again, this is a character that has disappeared in the IA League for a long time, and seems to have long been forgotten from history.

Even if any insider does not deny the significance of the existence of the No. 2 position in the arena, especially the No. 2 position of firepower, who is willing to exist in a battle as the No. 2 position?

No, it is almost impossible to exist.

Because once you become the No. 2 position, then it is equivalent to giving up the main attacking position, giving up the opportunity to become the leading player and an all-star player, and you can only wander around the field forever, becoming a guerrilla-like firefighter, there is no way to have any outstanding performance, let alone make fans regard it as the only idol.

It's like a traditional sniper team, and while everyone knows how important the observer is to the success of the sniper's mission, it's often the sniper who is the object of worship.

Whether it is a film or television drama, a literary work, or a game simulator or other plots, it seems that the sniper with amazing skills is the real protagonist, and no one really cares about the observer who provides environmental information for the sniper, and also provides protection and support for the sniper.

This is especially true in today's IA arena, because the so-called information no longer needs to be judged manually, but is detected and fed back by electronic components at all times, and even the so-called security is actually negligible, after all, although the protection system of the firepower IA is extremely weak, it is almost the same as the offensive IA, so it cannot change the fact that no one attack can destroy an IA instantly.

The already very awkward position, coupled with the fact that for the change of the lineup, it is almost impossible for a club to send two firepower IAs to play at the same time, which eventually led to the gradual disappearance of the second firepower position.

And even the Yundi Club and the Hundred Flowers Club, which are dominated by firepower-type IAs, are actually the same, because even if they often have two firepower-type IAs playing in team matches, these two firepower-type IAs will almost always become the main attackers.

Just like the Yundi club against WIN in the last round, although Zhou Mi is good at cooperating with their captain Zhou Pingkun, and the cooperation of the two is enough to withstand the onslaught of the opponent's whole team.

But that is only the cooperation between offense and defense, and there will hardly be a situation like Hou Ziang who is all over the field, let alone a situation where he will take close combat in order to protect Hua Qingqing.

Even though in the mouths of many fans and news media, Zhou Mi is often referred to as the only remaining No. 2 player in the league, but Zhou Mi never acknowledges this title.

After all, in his heart, he is only 22 years old, and he will never take the second position as his goal, let alone the ultimate belonging.

His goal is to prepare to replace Zhou Pingkun, who is about to retire, in the near future, even if he cannot succeed as captain soon, then he can also take over his position in the entire team.

It seems a little ridiculous to say that such an embarrassing No. 2 position of firepower has become the most significant special feature on Hou Ziang's body at this time, because this feeling is like someone who has finally learned the power of transmitting sound for thousands of miles, but only to find that the telephone and the Internet have been popularized for hundreds of years.

Chicken? Naturally, otherwise, Zhou Mi would not have avoided this title.

And this is why Xiong Tianci and Lin Xi feel helpless.

Not only because of Hou Ziang's basic skills and tactical actions with bugs everywhere, but also because WIN, which was originally mainly an offensive IA, how could he have the opportunity to send two firepower IAs to fight at the same time? In particular, the drivers of these two firepower IAs are Hua Qingqing and Hou Ziang, two newcomers.

Perhaps the only way is to hope that Hou Ziang can get rid of the characteristics of the second position of firepower and become another main attacker in the team like Hua Qingqing, and only in this way can Hou Ziang and Hua Qingqing compete for the only firepower IA rotation position.

Otherwise, waiting for Hou Ziang can only be the legendary bench player, and there will be no chance to represent WIN at all.

In fact, Hou Ziang's potential is of course more than that, because for all the current WIN players, whether it is Hua Qingqing, who is also a newcomer, or Chen Pinquan and Yuan Fei, who are in the training camp, their experience in IA competition is much higher than Hou Ziang, and even Bao Buping is no exception.

After all, although Bao Buping did not have the opportunity to participate in the training camp like Chen Pinquan and them, and had his own exclusive IA, he also mixed in the IA circle all the year round, and even after he dropped out of school, he also became a handyman in the IA game hall, not only has free time to use the simulator, but also has a lot of time for him to squander at will.

But what about Hou Ziang?

Since he was a child, he has been a good child, and he has been studying smoothly according to his parents' plan, even if he finally learned mechanical knowledge through his own efforts in college, but it is only a mechanical major for police equipment in the police academy.

Not to mention that you can't compete with IA, even the IA you come into contact with is just some standard IA that the military has eliminated.

I believe that if he hadn't secretly participated in the professional qualification tournament when he was in college, if he hadn't heard that Hu Xiaopeng was going to join WIN, he gave up his police career despite the dissuasion of his parents and insisted on following Hu Xiaopeng to WIN, maybe he would never have had the opportunity to receive systematic training in his life, let alone really have his own IA.

From becoming a supernumerary training camp player to participate in training, to now getting the official status of a professional player, the time left for Hou Ziang is actually less than two months.

Therefore, it is a matter of course that Hou Ziang's basic skills are not solid, and this is thanks to his graduation from the police academy, and his physical fitness and tactical ability are very good, otherwise, let alone not solid, he may not even be able to easily get the qualification of a professional player some time ago.

In order to become a professional player, although Hou Ziang's training is often late and early due to various circumstances, he has never really been absent.

In order to become a mechanic and fulfill his dream of being a mechanic, although he is physically and mentally exhausted after every training, and has almost no strength and energy to work again, he will actively complete the work assigned to him by Hu Xiaopeng every time.

Maybe half-heartedly, he doesn't seem to have done a very good job in any of his identities, but he can't deny his efforts and potential, at least in Hu Xiaopeng's view, although Hou Ziang does not have a high talent in machinery, but his attitude towards learning and his dedication to machinery can be affirmed.

"Little ...... Brother Xiaopeng? You've just come back? ”

It was only five o'clock in the morning, and Liu Yiyi, who was about to prepare breakfast for Hu Xiaopeng, had just pushed open the door and found that Hu Xiaopeng had appeared in the corridor, and couldn't help but ask him a little angrily.

Because according to usual habits, it is impossible for Hu Xiaopeng to get up so early, unless he has stayed up all night and just come back, but the next second, she found that Hu Xiaopeng was dressed neatly at this time, and he was clearly about to go out, and then said to him again with a surprised expression.

"No, you...... Are you already going out? ”

"Hehe, I came back early last night and went to bed early, so I woke up a little early."

"By the way, I'll go to the cafeteria for breakfast these days, so you don't have to prepare it for me."

Hu Xiaopeng said, walked to the door of Hou Ziang's room, and directly used his identity authority to swipe the door to open the door and walk in.

And then there was Hu Xiaopeng's shout in the room, and Hou Ziang's scream comparable to killing a pig.
