Chapter 691: The Awards Ceremony Ends and the Playoffs Begin
The regular season awards ceremony was completely over after Ye Xiu took the stage to accept the award.
The most important award this time goes to Ye Xiu, and it can be regarded as a highly anticipated award.
After the regular season awards ceremony, the teams that failed to enter the playoffs will have a holiday and go fishing, while the teams that have entered the playoffs are still busy with daily training tasks.
Although the playoffs are about to start, these teams preparing for the playoffs should logically give their players a holiday to relax. But thinking about the upcoming high-intensity competition, the teams are worried that if they give the players a holiday, they will relax.
If I can't find it during the competition, what should I do?
And if people from other teams don't take a break but spend these few days studying them, wouldn't they be beaten when the game starts?
This is where the word roll comes from. There are only a few days left before the start of the playoffs, and all major teams are actively preparing for the game.
On Team Happy's side, Duan Yu and others, in addition to training as usual every day, also have to face interviews from a group of reporters.
After all, the regular season has ended, and Team Xingxin has finished second in the league, which is a very proud result. The team has two of the strongest newcomers, Duan Yu and Tang Rou, and Team Xingxin's popularity has remained high.
In addition, captain Ye Xiu won the regular season Most Valuable Player Award, which also increased the popularity of the Happy team a lot.
Since there is popularity, there will naturally be topics and news media will come to interview and report on it.
In addition, it is also worth mentioning that Miguang, who has been absent from the regular season, has completed his graduation thesis and came back in time.
After all, Muguang is also a member of Team Happy. Naturally, he cannot miss Team Happy's playoffs. After Muguang came back, he started training with the team, striving to make an appearance on the stage of the playoffs.
Don't forget, Team Xingxin also has a graduate player.
Time flies by, and in a blink of an eye, it’s April 8th, which is also the day when the playoffs start (the original date is June 14th, I changed it, and changed the original home and away games to determine the winner and loser.
A best-of-five game system (refer to the NBA’s best-of-seven game system), so that the playoff games can be played longer and longer, and the league can make more money. In this way, the Glory League playoffs will
Lasting for more than two months, the playoffs ended in June and July, the hottest time in summer).
The game schedule for the first round of the playoffs has already been announced.
The first round of battles: Team Samsara with the first record vs. Team 301 with the eighth place, Team Xingxin with the second place vs. Team Baihua with the seventh place, Team Tiny Herb with the third place vs. Team Six
The Thunder team, the fourth-placed Blue Rain team vs. the fifth-placed Tyranny team.
On the first day of April 8th, there will be two games, Team Samsara vs. Team 301, and Team Xingxin vs. Team Hundred Blossoms.
The first game to start is the match between Team Samsara and Team 301, which will start at 6:30 pm on April 8th.
The competition format is a best-of-five series, with no total points accumulated. Team Samsara has the lead, so the first game is Samsara’s home court.
Samsara had already won two consecutive championships the year before last and last year (season 8 and 9). The addition of the first player and the double-gun combination with Zhou Zekai made Samsara even more powerful this season.
In terms of winning rate in the playoffs, the Samsara team has the highest voice. The chance of Samsara winning the championship is as high as 65% through the entire network voting. The Xingxin team has a 20% chance of winning. The other six teams share the remaining 15%.
From this championship rate, we can see how loud and strong the voice of Team Samsara is. Even Team Xingxin, which has the second best record and is the strongest dark horse in the league this season, has a championship rate that is not more than one-third of Samsara’s.
.
The three consecutive championships seem to be waiting for reincarnation to reach out and take them.
This is extremely exciting for fans of Team Samsara because they will witness the team they support completing an incredible record, completing three consecutive championships, and becoming the second wealthy club in the history of Glory to complete three consecutive championships.
As long as Samsara wins the championship this year, Samsara's three consecutive championships will be much more valuable than Excellent Era's three consecutive championships in the early days of the league. In this case, Samsara may surpass Excellent Era and become the strongest team in the history of the league.
, there is no one. At least for now, it will be the first.
Today, Team Samsara’s home court was almost entirely filled with Team Samsara fans. Even some Team 301 fans who sneaked in did not dare to wear Team 301 uniforms or support cards for Team 301.
They didn't even dare to shout "Come on 301" loudly. They could only secretly cheer for their team in their hearts. After all, they didn't want to be trampled to death by fans of Team Samsara.
Amid cheers like a roaring tsunami, members of Team Samsara and Team 301 entered the venue one after another.
Listening to the deafening cheers from the audience, the members of the Samsara Team were full of emotions and high morale. This is the home ground of their Samsara Team, and here, they are the kings!
But in the ears of the members of Team 301, these shouts were like constant pressure, making them somewhat breathless.
They didn't have much hope against the Samsara team. Although they had great results in the next few rounds and got a chance on the edge of the playoffs, they knew that the three players in their team would not be able to win.
The great combination is not well integrated enough to be concerned about the championship.
They can sneak into the playoffs this year, which is already a great performance. They just hope that in this series, they will not be shaved off by the Samsara team, and then prepare for next season, run in, and strive to compete again next season.
The reincarnation team competes for the upper hand.
In their view, the powerful Samsara Team is a mountain that is difficult to overcome, and now their minds are filled with the shouts of Team Samsara fans. This kind of pressure makes people want to surrender.
On the hosting stage, Lin Kefan, who was in charge of hosting the game, said to the camera: "Dear viewers at the scene and in front of the TV, good evening, everyone, and welcome to the opening of the playoffs of the 10th season of the Honor E-Sports League.
Game, the game between Team Samsara and Team 301!"
Sitting next to Lin Kefan is a beautiful host from the Glory League: Wang Meina, who is partnering with Lin Kefan tonight to host this game: "I don't want to introduce too much about the basic information of the two teams. Reincarnation
The team ranks first in the regular season record this season. The team has the top player in the league today Zhou Zekai, the new god of fighting Sun Xiang, the social flower Jiang Botao, the number one judo Lu Boyuan, and four all-star level players. The reincarnation has continued.
Having won the championship in the previous two seasons, their momentum to win three consecutive championships this year is unstoppable."
Lin Kefan continued: "Looking at Team 301, although Team 301 is a new playoff team this season, their team also has Yang Cong, the number one assassin in Glory, and Li Yihui, the former number one Judoka in Glory.
The returning foreign great player Bai Shu also has three strong all-star players. Although Team 301 is not as good as Team Samsara in terms of the number of All-Star players, Team 301 has played 6 games since the arrival of Bai Shu.
Among them, they only lost one game, which was against Team Xingxin. It can be seen from this that the strength of Team 301 cannot be underestimated."
Wang Meina cooperated: "Yes, after all, there are no weak teams in the playoffs. Every team that can enter the playoffs cannot be underestimated. But this year's Samsara team is ridiculously strong. I feel that with Samsara team here, other teams will also be there this year."
I can only accompany the prince to study."
Lin Kefan smiled helplessly: "Hey, having said that, nothing is absolute. What if a miracle happens? After all, on the stage of glory, miracles have happened more than once."
Wang Meina smiled, revealing two deep dimples: "This is also the reason, let's see what kind of wonderful performance both parties will bring us!"
Lin Kefan also smiled: "Speaking of which, I am also looking forward to this game, but I heard that the rules of the playoffs have changed this season. As the rules master of the Glory League, Mina, why don't you introduce it?
"
Wang Meina nodded: "Yes, some adjustments have been made in this season's playoffs, that is, the league regulations canceled the heads-up competition of the individual competition, and then modified the group competition of the individual competition."
"What kind of amendment?" Lin Kefan asked.
"Previously, the format of the arena competition was 3V3. This year, the alliance changed the format of the arena competition from 3V3 to 5V5." Wang Meina said.
"Oh? Doesn't this change make the game simpler?" Lin Kefan pretended to be surprised.
"Yes, it is indeed a lot simpler. Although the heads-up competition and the group competition are both individual competitions, the heads-up competition is a one-on-one duel, while the group competition is a 3V3 group duel. Such a model requires
Targeted formations can allow your team to obtain higher scores and limit the opponent's scores in the game. However, the restrictions have canceled the heads-up competition and directly turned the arena competition into a 5-on-5 team fight, so there is no need to go
Instead of racking your brains to set up the formation in a targeted manner, just arrange the five strongest players in the duel in the arena. The only thing you have to do is how to prevent your players from being restrained by the opponents' players, but this
It’s impossible to estimate things at all, we can only rely on luck and the player’s own strength.” Wang Meina explained.
Lin Kefan continued to be surprised: "Tsk, tsk, this game is much simpler, and maybe the five players in the group competition will also be the five starting players in the team competition. Wouldn't the main players of the team have to fight continuously?
"
Wang Meina chuckled: "Haha, you are right. Although the game looks easy, it is also more tiring."
Lin Kefan finally stopped pretending, nodded and said: "Yes, continuous fighting does put a lot of pressure on the main players."
Wang Meina said: "It's not just the reason for continuous fighting. In addition to the changes in the competition system this year, there are also changes in the promotion of the league."
"Oh? Are there any other changes?" Lin Kefan pretended to be stupid again.
"In previous years, the playoffs were in a two-round system, where each team played one home and away game, and then compared the total points of the two games. The player with the higher score advanced to the next round. But this year, the league changed it to five games and three games.
To win, both sides must play at least three games, and at most five games. The more games they have to play, the more tiring they will be. Coupled with the change in the competition system, the status and performance of the main players of the opposing team will also be affected.
In terms of physical strength, the requirements are higher?" Wang Meina explained patiently, not surprised at all by Lin Kefan's act of pretending to be stupid.
After all, this is the job that their host must do, just like a partner telling a cross talk, there must be someone who pretends to be stupid to expand the topic.
"This is indeed true. It seems that this year's playoffs will be more intense than before!" Lin Kefan said.
"That's it, okay, without further ado, the competition is about to begin. Now we invite the five groups of players from the Samsara Team and Team 301 Arena to come on stage and prepare for the competition."
Amidst the sweet shouts of the host guest Wang Meina, the five arena players from Team Samsara and Team 301 stood up one after another, and then all came to the opposite platform.
The five contestants and the account characters they operate on Team Samsara’s group arena are: captain Zhou Zekai’s sharpshooter account: One Shot Through the Clouds, deputy captain Jiang Botao’s magic swordsman account: Wulang, and team member Sun Xiang’s battle mage: One
Ye Zhiqiu, team member Lu Boyuan's judoka: Yunshan Chaos, team member Du Ming's swordsman: Wu Shuang Gouyue.
The five players and account roles of Team 301 in the arena are: Captain Yang Cong’s Assassin: Scenery Kill, Vice Captain Li Yihui’s Judoka: Moving Mountains, team member Bai Shu’s Paladin: Tide, and team member Gao Jie
’s Swordsman: Star Sword, team member Huang Renze’s Sharpshooter: Gunshots are coming.
After the players from both sides shook hands and greeted each other on the platform, they returned to their own fighting rooms and began to prepare for the game.
After a few minutes of preparation, the game officially begins.
The first player to start the competition is the starter in Samsara, and the starter here in Samsara is still Sun Xiang, their unbeatable starter in the group competition.
Sun Xiang's one-on-one ability was already demonstrated in Team Yue Yun when he just debuted. Later, when he came to Team Excellent Era and took control of the first account of Glory, One Autumn Leaf, he became even more powerful and his strength became even higher. Moreover, Sun Xiang
He has a rather impatient personality. If he is put in the final position, he will probably be eager to play, but as time goes by, Sun Xiang's vigor will slowly wear away.
Therefore, it is not that Team Samsara has not considered letting Sun Xiang guard the ring, but that Sun Xiang is not suitable to guard the ring. Instead of letting Sun Xiang guard the ring, it is better to let Sun Xiang start and bring out Sun Xiang's strongest combat effectiveness.
As for Team 301, Gao Jie started the game.
301 originally started the group match with Li Yihui, a judoka, but they knew that Samsara would send Sun Xiang to start. In order to avoid losing their strongest combat power, they arranged for Gao Jie to consume Sun Xiang.
Come on for the next great players and take down Team Samsara’s hard core.
After both players clicked to prepare, the game started quickly.
Gao Jie is the main player of Team 301, but under Sun Xiang's strong attack, he could not hold out for too long.
At the third minute and twenty-sixth second, Gao Jie was struck through the heart by Sun Xiang's Furious Dragon, which had been charged up early. The last bit of blood was exhausted and his body collapsed.
Glory pops up and Team Samsara gets off to a good start!
After all, the strength of the two players is not at the same level. There is no suspense about the outcome of this game, and the audience has no sense of expectation. It would be surprising if Sun Xiang does not win this game.
But after the game, there were still deafening cheers.
Even a victory without suspense is extremely exciting for Team Samsara. After all, this is their first point in the playoffs for Team Samsara. This victory means that they are one step closer to the championship in the finals.
!
Amid cheers and cheers, Gao Jie walked off the stage dejectedly, while the second player from Team 301 stood up.
The only turtle player in the Glory League currently is an overseas Chinese from the European League, Bai Shu!
