[Team] Gim: Will you watch the World Cup

Yun Yun silently typed some of the words in this sentence into the translator, and only then did he see what he wanted to express.

Yun Yun felt that the World Cup was indeed a grand event for Overwatch, no matter where he went, he would see this news, even on the Asian server.

As long as he is online now, and Gim is not busy, he will receive an invitation to form a team.

This is a very diligent player. He is immersed in the custom arena or training range at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and he may not see his offline prompt until the afternoon.

[Team] Daylight: Yes

[Team] Gim: Who do you think will win, China

China. Yun Yun didn't have an objective understanding of the strength of the professional team at all. All his knowledge was hearsay. According to the e-sports tradition of an FPS game, in this arena, it would be difficult for China to gain a strong advantage in the early stages of professional competition.

[Team] Daylight: I don't know.

he replied sincerely.

E-sports has no borders. If you are strong, you are strong. If you refuse to admit defeat, you can only beat your opponent based on your strength, and then talk about other things.

[Team] Gim: I think South Korea will win, I firmly believe that.

South Korea will win. Yun Yun has always been envious of the attitude of Koreans towards e-sports, they have unlimited confidence at all times, but from his perception, South Korea does not have much advantage in FPS games, at least in the experience he has experienced. During those times, there was not a single Korean professional team whose names could be remembered.

He feels that he knows very little about the world. He has never watched a professional game of Overwatch, nor has he seen the performance of other countries in the Overwatch arena. He can only rely on the information from two years ago, using another game, to Judge the strength of a country.

It's sad.

[Team] Daylight: Actually, I haven't watched the game, so I don't understand it.

This time, Gim was really surprised. His reply was silent for a long time, as if he had used a translator to look up the wording and then copied and pasted it.

[Team] Gim: I thought you would pay attention to Overwatch’s professional games. After all, some of our teams have participated in Chinese games, and they told me that there are at least a few million people watching the games in China. That's an impressive number, and no Overwatch game in Korea has had such a high level of attention.

But Yun Yun didn't know about this.

He didn't know the situation of the domestic teams, and he didn't know the current international situation. He was like a person behind closed doors, shut himself in a small world, and lived his life with no news.

[Team] Daylight: Sorry.

[Team] Gim:

[Team] Daylight: Maybe, I should pay more attention to these things.

He should not close himself up, and should not choose to escape. Since he has decided to live like this, he must face himself honestly.

When Yun Yun seriously went to understand the World Cup, he realized that what is going on now is only the top 16 qualifying match. If he wants to watch the first match of the Chinese team, there is at least half a month left.

However, there are more domestic championships than he imagined.

Every live broadcast platform will have a naming tournament, and there are even more than one of those well-known platforms. Yun Yun looked at those chaotic XX cup quarter-finals and XX cup auditions, as if he had entered the Grand View Garden and didn't know what to do measures.

There are too many competitions, tournaments are held every day, and other competitions close every few days. There are at least 30 or 40 professional teams in China. He has dragged the list of several competitions, and he can see different names The team appears on the list.

Laur and DeGR, who participated in the World Cup, recently entered the offseason, but RTK's team name appeared in many games.

Yun Yun remembered this team, it was the one that ZUM joined.

He opened the replay of the latest game with great interest, and he was able to see Overwatch's unique custom mode interface.

All games are carried out in custom mode, with Observers (observers, OB for short), referees and commentators who specialize in switching viewing angles.

Yun Yun listened to the commentary and discussed the situation of the participating teams, waiting for the start of the game.

"RTK is forming a second team recently, so their first team has also adjusted. I heard that a new very powerful Genji has arrived." The male commentator said so.

"Yes, this Genji is called Toke. Last season, Genji ranked twentieth in the solo ladder. I heard that he also has several professional team competition experience, so he is a very capable player. This time, the RTK team has changed. This is the first competition after the core output." The female commentator said.

The two commentators were doing warm-up work alternately, and briefly introduced the situation of the two teams. In simple terms, it was an adjusted RTK team against a poorly-recorded MI team.

Genji, McCree, Zarya, Reinhardt, Lucio, Zenyatta. This kind of regular hero that can also be seen in competitive games is very ordinary in this professional game.

Moreover, the choices of the two teams were exactly the same.

RTK deserves to be the first-line team praised by the commentator. At the beginning of the game on the King's Road, six people rushed to kill the enemy, and caught the defender by surprise.

OB always loves to focus on the core output position, so RTK's Toke has received long-term attention.

This is a sophisticated Genji. Yun Yun can feel his thoughts from every time he climbs the wall and retreats. This is a habit of teammate resources being tilted. Being able to lead a team to charge is not at all like a core that has entered the team temporarily.

I have to say that the support from teammates also came very timely.

Even if Zarya's shield and Lucio's acceleration sound effects sometimes come a second or two late, it can't stop Genji from rushing into the front line to harvest the enemy.

The situation on the field was good, MI's defense was helpless, and the target point was easily taken down.

The game entered the pushcart stage of King's Road, and the defenders all retreated to the back corner position. Even if there was a wave of counterattack under the first bridge, they did not make this choice.

It was the first time Yun Yun saw such a defensive method. If Reinhardt could step forward and stop, the position under the arch bridge just now could also use the store as a cover point for a round of defense.

However, MI doesn't think so. Their position is a regular team battle point in the game. As long as they defend, the resurrection position of the offensive team will become very far away, and they can delay more time.

RTK obviously also knew this situation. When attacking, they decisively smashed all the ultimate skills in their hands on this point. Yun Yun could see that Genji in his vision pulled out his long knife under the cover of his teammates. .

Toke Shadow Blow rushed into the battle circle and directly slashed and killed the target. All the enemies were knocked down by him before they could fight back. Even though Genji's ultimate move was weakened from 8 seconds to 6 seconds, no one could stop him from cleaning the car The footsteps of the side defender.

Genji's kill was swiped in the upper right corner, and both commentators sighed in appreciation.

Of course, there can be no perfect player, and after Toke killed the enemy Zenyatta, RTK made an obvious support error.

The teammate's healing ball was not given, causing Toke to be killed by McCree on the way back.

After this mistake, RTK seems to have encountered a great change.

Even though the commentator was constantly analyzing the battle situation, Yun Yun could feel the slight disobedience of this team.

It's like a team with perfect coordination suddenly changed a group of teammates. The brilliant performance before turned into small mistakes, which were obviously avoidable, but actually happened.

This feeling is very strange.

Overwatch is a very magical game: the party with an absolute advantage does not necessarily win, and the party with an absolute disadvantage does not necessarily lose.

Every second will produce huge changes, leading to an instant reversal of the current situation. Maybe a key person escapes with residual blood, or maybe an ultimate skill release position is not good, all of which may lead to different results.

Now, there is a problem with RTK. No matter how the commentator sighs "it's okay" and "we can fight again", Yun Yun feels that Genji is still the same Genji, but the attitude of his teammates is completely different, and the treatment and assistance have become scattered. When the camera is switched to a global perspective, it is obvious that the offensive team's formation is loose, and it is not much different from a passerby's competitive game.

crowd out.

Yun Yun could only think of this word. The teams that had cooperated closely with each other before began to reject Genji. Toke's brilliant performance was difficult to reappear. OB also decisively switched the camera to other output positions.

"RTK has changed the core output, so it is in the running-in stage. These mistakes can only be summarized after their game is over. But their strength is beyond doubt, but they lack a little cooperation." The commentator explained the changes in RTK, and then Entered the next game map.

Even if this inexplicable 5+1 loose state lasted until the end of the entire battle, it could not prevent RTK from winning, because under the huge gap in strength, the opponent was really not enough to watch, and silently became a foil, announcing to withdraw from the game .

Yun Yun was a little worried about ZUM.

"It's okay. It's normal for the team to have new members. Now the second team is not online yet, and they are still looking for a C position." ZUM's voice is very relaxed. He has already signed a contract with the club. As long as all the players are found, the team can participate Contest.

"I thought it was easier to find an output than to find an assistant." Shimada Genji likes to talk on the mic recently, and his healthy voice echoes in the voice, always arousing a climax in Yun Yun's barrage.

"But it's hard to fit." ZUM took Widowmaker today. He hasn't used this hero for too long. He is a bit unfamiliar with Widowmaker's grappling hook. "The Genji in the first team is from another club. He was dug here, has experience in competitions, and is strong enough. It’s just that he has a bad temper.”

Listening to his evaluation, Yun Yun suddenly remembered what happened on the field and asked, "Do you know him?"

"I met him once before, and when I turned around, I heard him arguing with someone." ZUM shot and killed the jumping blood on the opposite side, "I'm a little worried when I think about going to live with such a bad-tempered person soon .Hey, it would be great if you play professionally, our living habits must be compatible.”

Genji Shimada denied his wild thoughts and said, "I don't want to. I'm exhausted from playing professionally. I don't know why you are so excited."

ZUM was unwilling to give up, and asked, "Where is Shadow Blade?"

Play a career...

Yun Yun felt that the world was far away from him.
