A double match in one day is a severe test, but it is also a rare opportunity, especially the match against the Bryan brothers. Although they lost the game in the end, the harvest was undoubtedly rich, which can be directly seen from the growth potential value.
Not only is it full value, but it has also increased by about 20%. Sure enough, facing strong enemies and masters, such competitions always make people excited. In addition to interpreting the secret of challenging the limits of competitive sports, there are additional
reward.
So, where should the attribute points be superimposed this time?
After the US Open, Gao Wen re-examined his own strength and made a plan. In the short term, he should focus on improving his technical attributes:
Because the physical attributes have been able to withstand the severe test of the Grand Slam level schedule and competition, and get rid of the dilemma of shortcomings, then increasing one's competitiveness is a top priority. Naturally, the improvement of technical attributes has become the first choice.
But the emergence of hidden attributes gave Gawain a different choice.
Whether it is the "injury avoidance index" or the "extraordinary performance index", they are very precious attributes for Gao Wen at this stage, especially the former.
In this life, in the NCAA competition, he avoided the nightmare of repeating the same mistakes, his knees were not injured, and he wrote miracles along the way, but this also means that everything that unfolds in front of him is brand new and unknown.
Yes, he still wasn't sure whether he would be injured.
In addition, Gao Wen has been suffering from sluggish form and poor feel recently, which also made Gao Wen deeply realize that the state of professional players is a fluctuating value, not a fixed value; and, because of injuries, because of the body, because of
Due to mental and other reasons, the strength may still decline. It definitely does not mean that once you reach a certain level, you can stay in this state forever.
Numerical values are constant, but humans change.
It is precisely because of this that although the ability displayed by numerical values will not go back, how much strength can be exerted while standing on the court is another matter. 80%, 50%, and 10% of one's own strength are all
It is possible, so the importance of another hidden attribute becomes highlighted.
Extraordinary performance can be 100% strength and 120% performance; it can also be 50% state and 80% performance.
So, should we improve the technical attributes first or the hidden attributes first?
Gawain did not hesitate too much and quickly made the decision to improve the hidden attributes:
The injury issue is undoubtedly the core of the entire decision. This is still the issue that Gao Wen is most concerned about and concerned about. The choice is not as difficult as imagined.
Previously, when the growth potential value did not reach the full value, the plus sign behind the hidden attribute had been invisible. Now it finally emerged, and along with the plus sign there was a small bracket:
(0/5).
What does it mean?
Can't hidden attributes be added directly? Does it mean that it takes five attribute points to improve one hidden attribute?
As soon as his thoughts flashed, Gawain didn't hesitate and just tried it and found out.
Overlay.
As before, Gawain finished adding points, and then you can see that the value of the hidden attribute has not changed, but the value in parentheses has changed:
(1/5).
Then look at the growth potential value, 20.72%, which is obviously a state that has been exhausted.
Sure enough! The guess was correct.
Calm down and think about it carefully, but it’s not surprising.
Hidden attributes did not appear until last month, and you can tell at a glance that this is an attribute that can change your entire career. If other attributes improve hard power, then hidden attributes improve the possibility of continuing strength. Using a metaphor
In other words:
Let the meteor become a star.
Hidden attributes are indeed hidden attributes, and the difficulty of improving them increases by five times, which makes sense.
There is no such thing as a free lunch. Gao Wen has always had a clear understanding of this, so even with the system, he has always devoted himself to daily training; and now, Gao Wen has another reason to constantly improve himself, and his hidden attribute is
Best driving force:
In the future, the more opportunities to compete with top players like the Bryan brothers, the better.
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to play against Nadal again!
"...Gawain?"
At this moment, Tim's voice came to his ears, interrupting Gawain's thoughts. He quickly shut down the system and pulled out. Then Gawain smiled at Tim.
"I'm thinking about the game. Only when you play against real masters can you know the gap between you and me. Our net skills are really terrible. Now I finally understand why Pete always shakes his head every time he sees my net training.
"
Tim didn't think much, his attention was immediately diverted by Gawain, and he nodded to join the conversation.
"Yes, I feel the same way. Net skills are so important in doubles matches."
"So Pete encouraged me to participate in doubles. What could be more intuitive than actual combat?"
"Really! I don't have time to polish my net skills at all during training, and my bottom line skills are not solid enough yet. Ah, I feel like I still have a lot of work to do."
"I should be added, we both are."
Modern tennis has basically reached the bottom line era. Among the "Big Four", only Federer has the most comprehensive skills. The other three have shortcomings. It was not until they reached the top that they began to improve their skills one after another.
Slowly fill in the gaps in pre-network technology:
Djokovic's small ball skills are the best, Nadal's volleying at the net is the most powerful, and Murray's delicate control has the advantage in placement and line control.
Outside of the Big Four, the group of young people born after 1990 and 1995 are basically all typical baseline players, and their skills in front of the net are hard to describe. Even in 2021, the times are changing more and more dramatically.
Next, this shortcoming is still the Achilles heel of young people.
Tim, of course, is no exception.
But as Tim said, their baseline skills have not been polished yet, so where will they have time to polish their front-of-the-net skills? That is because Gao Wen’s coach is Sampras, so Sampras pays special attention to the front of the net.
Complete the shortcomings.
"Ah, I'm hesitating whether to go back and practice more."
Tim spoke with a hesitant expression.
"I know we are all tired from today's double match and we should exercise restraint to avoid injuries. However, I am not very satisfied with today's two matches."
When it comes to training maniacs, Tim and Gawain are indeed on par.
Gao Wen showed a smile and said, "It's very simple. We don't have formal training, but tactical training. We analyze game videos and analyze the game from a tactical perspective. What do you think? I want to see the doubles match and your match against Nova.
Gram’s game.”
Tim's eyes immediately brightened, "Let's go, what are you waiting for?"
Then, a voice drifted past the locker room, like a ghost, muttering quietly.
