In the Copenhagen Major official live broadcast room, in the Coca-Cola Room, two commentators were excitedly describing everything that happened during the nuclear crisis:
"...In the endgame of 1V2, kennyS blindly sniped and killed 800K first. The two sides came to the bullfighting stage. The initiative is now controlled by kennyS. JJZ must take the initiative, but is there really enough time?"
"kennyS shot through the wall!! He couldn't kill JJZ. It's too late to change the gun, but it's not a big problem. The other party has no time!!!"
"Then let us congratulate VC.A for winning the nuclear crisis map three with a 16:6 advantage." Taro Yuan said with a smile on his face, "While winning the third map, today's BO3 final
The result also appeared, VC.A finally became the winner of this game with a score of 2-1!"
Coke's voice was sonorous and powerful, and it was extremely clear in the live broadcast room: "Although I suffered a heavy blow from IMO's pull play in Picture 1, VC.A adjusted his mentality in the follow-up, and in today's BO3 match
In the game, we accomplished the feat of letting one chase two.”
"Combining their results in the first two days of the Challenger Group, it can also be announced that VC.A has successfully entered the main draw of this Copenhagen Major with a gorgeous record of three wins, and will once again meet VC in the main draw."
Taro Yuan added: "But IMO fans don't need to worry. Although they lost today's game, if they can win one of the two days of games tomorrow, then IMO can still enter the main draw of this Major.
…”
Taro Yuan still feels relieved IMO fans, but a group of "homework guardians" in the live broadcast room have already become excited.
[Thank God, I seem to have kept my homework now]
[VC.A is quite impressive, it’s worth seeing it so late]
[kennyS seems to have awakened from the second half of picture 2, playing so fiercely]
[It’s too fast to see clearly, kennyS woke up, it’s ridiculous]
[However, I have to say that IMO this game is quite good. I almost thought that the second picture was going to be overturned]
[I can’t read it, do you think you’re just talking about Team A’s town?]
[Not to mention small towns, the later Nuclear Crisis is also purely crushing. The BO3 game is quite a test of overall strength. 】
"...But judging from the footage provided by the director, Team A is also under a lot of pressure in this game." Coke sighed.
Taro Yuan listened and looked over. Sure enough, although everyone in VC.A under the director's camera had smiles on their faces, it was more of a sense of relief. With many years of commentary experience, VC.A's appearance in Figure 3
The competition was not as easy as they thought.
…
“kennyS played well in the endgame.”
Broky took off his headphones and took a long breath, as if this could relieve the pressure in his heart. Then he smiled again and praised his teammates for their outstanding performance just now.
"The end game made me so nervous." kennyS sighed, and then said, "If the opponent JJZ replenishes his shot faster, he will have to continue fighting."
In this picture of the nuclear crisis, both the audience and the commentators believe that VC.A will not encounter any pressure. After all, from the data and past performance, it can be seen that VC.A performed even better in the nuclear crisis.
Judging from the result, 16:6, IMO only scored 6 points, which seems to be in line with this result.
But only as the parties involved do they know how much effort they put into playing the game with the other party on Figure 3.
Although IMO the tactics are still simple, their sudden change of pace really makes VC.A afraid to act rashly.
If it weren't for kennyS's stable performance in Figure 3, they estimate that this game would still be a bit suspenseful.
Mengde high-fived the players one by one to celebrate the somewhat difficult victory in this game.
Today's BO3 is the most difficult and most difficult game they have encountered in recent games.
Meng De also picked up the aftertaste after this game and began to sort out the thoughts of the players:
"So I have always said, don't take the game lightly. You always need to stay confident, but you can't look down on your opponent because of it. In the final analysis, a game is a game between ten players. Things like status are very metaphysical.
Yes, a stable mentality can be our winning medicine."
This time no one was impatient, but because the game had just ended, they were quite touched by what he said.
IMO's overall strength is quite poor. Even in terms of tactical ability and mid-term position selection, it is not even as good as a bunch of second-tier teams in Asia.
But his marksmanship is outstanding in this team. Even if they are a little distracted, they will be killed in an instant.
In today's game, if Meng De hadn't vaccinated them yesterday, making them wary of IMO's shooting skills, then you can imagine that the mentality of kennyS and Broky would definitely explode.
If that's the case, it's really hard to tell the outcome of today's game.
However, IMO, success is also about marksmanship, and defeat is also about marksmanship.
A true first-line duel, in addition to marksmanship, BP ability, map proficiency, default tactics, specific tactics, position selection ability...
There are too many factors that affect the strength of a team.
IMO, in addition to their excellent marksmanship, they can even be said to have stretched their hips. This is one of the most important reasons for their failure today.
"Go shake hands with them." Meng De straightened his clothes and motioned to the team members not to forget the process.
When Meng De led his team members over to shake hands, he saw a solemn atmosphere in the room. When he saw everyone from VC.A arriving, 800K looked even more unhappy.
Perhaps he was used to seeing opponents whose faces remained normal even after losing games. For the first time, Meng De smiled rarely when he saw an opponent with "unwillingness" on his face.
Merit-100.
Mengde quickly stopped smiling and shook hands with his IMO teammates with a normal expression.
800K didn't say anything when he shook hands with Meng De, but when Broky came over, he shook him a little harder, and then said fiercely: "Just wait, the next time we play, we will definitely be 2-0
Take it directly!"
He was very unwilling to lose this game, and he was not willing to be a good gentleman after losing the game.
This top gun man from the ladder has his own unique pride.
"Hmph." Broky smiled disdainfully, then rolled his eyes like NIKO, and then said, "You should first get the qualifications to fight with us next time."
This is a bit crazy, but it is also true.
IMO, as a team that has problems with training, it is really difficult to compete for qualifications for these competitions.
"Next time we fight, we will definitely make it fresh in your memory." 800K still looked like that, with all his emotions on his face.
Meng De was quite moved by how similar the situation of VCs in the past was to theirs.
When VC entered the Major for the first time, he was excellent with his marksmanship, but his other tactics were a mess.
Meng De chose to overthrow all playing systems, and IMO it ended in marksmanship.
He couldn't help turning his head and said, "Actually, you guys played very well."
800K, who was still brewing harsh words, was overloaded when he heard Meng De's speech.
What the hell is this?
Aren't we saying harsh words to each other? Why are you praising us all of a sudden?
He wanted to ask something else, but all he heard was the opponent's coach's leaving figure and a few words:
"I hope to see you become stronger next time. Come on, don't compromise too much because of life."
IMO, everyone was left stunned in place, not knowing what it was like.
…
After winning this somewhat difficult game, VC.A officially became the first team to enter the main draw from the challenger group.
They also got a rare rest and adjustment time in the tight Major schedule.
As the first team to qualify from the group stage, they can actually play a big role these days.
Whether it is research and analysis of other teams, or some novel props and routines used by each team in the Challenger group, there is sufficient time to explore. Of course, this sufficient time is relative to the follow-up qualifying of the Challenger group.
of several teams.
Moreover, the most important thing is that they can relax briefly so that their body and mind do not have to be in a state of tension all the time.
After returning to the hotel, gla1ve asked about the next work tasks: "Are we going to review the game next?"
Others also picked up their mobile phones or notebooks and began to prepare for the next review.
"There is no need to review the game today." Meng De said and even laughed. "On the way back, I quickly watched the game video. Reviewing the game doesn't make much sense."
"Why?" gla1ve didn't know why.
"Because IMO only the marksmanship is good."
"Haha..." VC.A's group of people in the hotel room laughed happily or with emotion.
I am happy because what Meng De said is very reasonable. IMO, the force value is indeed all focused on marksmanship, but I am sad that IMO's marksmanship has caused them a lot of problems.
But no matter what, today's game is over, and VC.A finally won the game.
It can take a long time to single out some trivial issues, but it is not necessary. The players in today's game are a little troubled. In the three maps, because they have to beware of the opponent's unconventional rush, their attention has always been high.
concentrated.
The efficiency of forced review now is not high, so Mengde simply left the review of this game for tomorrow. They will have a review time at the end of every training match, and there is no delay.
But today's incident also reminded him.
Although it seems that IMO's style of play is in an extreme direction, with all kinds of forced bursts of smoke, just to grasp the psychological error, but it is inevitable that no one will deliberately learn this style of play in the future. If you don't pay attention, you will be caught.
That would be really troublesome.
Therefore, Mengde will also remind his players in subsequent trainings, and he plans to let the team learn this style of play as appropriate.
Aggressive play is not a problem. If used well, this style of play will only be a part of the tactics. Since we encountered a problem in today's game, this problem must be solved slowly and resolved.
Only by using it for their own use can they be prompted to continue to grow and improve.
After lying on the sofa in the hotel room for a while, Meng Decai finally felt that he had regained some strength.
The players are fully focused for several hours during the game and highly concentrated. As a coach, why should he not be the same?
In addition, he is also responsible for the players' daily work arrangements, post-game review training, tactical planning, and a series of other tasks. The time and energy he needs to spend on work every day is no less than that of the players.
He took out some materials from the computer table next to him and organized them. From time to time, he used a signature pen to change and add some data or notes on them. Until all the papers on the desktop were reviewed, he clamped them with clips and put them in one place.
inside the folder.
While putting away the revised documents, he talked casually with Wu Qiang.
"...The second team won the game today. There is still some time left for the group stage matches. Their recent training matches are still scheduled, but they can be reduced appropriately to let them relax... By the way, the first team is over there
How is your recent training status?"
“The winning rate has been quite impressive recently.” Wu Qiang added, “But it’s not necessarily due to the hidden tactics.”
"It is inevitable to hide tactics. Now that the Major is approaching, who will let you practice tactics in training matches? It is just to maintain the feel."
As he spoke, Meng De laughed again.
Because he did not allow the first team to participate in large competitions before, the first team has been training like crazy in recent months. They have beaten all the first and second tier teams in the world, large and small.
In the end, not many first-team teams even wanted to practice with them because they were all too familiar with the game!
During the training of the first team for more than a month, due to Meng De, they did not work behind closed doors and did not accept new things exposed by the first team.
On the contrary, it has been a long time since they left the first-line arena, making them eager for a big win to relieve their mood.
Mengde came to the training room of the first team. Their training was coming to an end. A training match ended with another smooth victory.
S1mple couldn't even feel any joy from the training matches. He had won so much recently that he couldn't tell whether he was the enemy or just putting smoke bombs on them.
"Is the training match over?" Meng De patted S1mple on the shoulder.
S1mple nodded and said nothing. He was actually a little angry towards Meng De.
"Get ready, the Major will be the main event in a few days. This time you all have a more correct attitude. Our goal is to move towards the championship, and we can't have too many problems ahead."
Wang Yuning hammered his lower back with his hand and said with a slight pain: "No, everyone is in good condition recently and training is also very active."
"In today's training match, we only lost one game. Everyone's cooperation was so tacit that we almost became one."
"Don't blame me. You know the state of the team before." Meng De explained the conflict within the team. "You said if I don't do that and you continue to mess up, what will happen in the future?
What does it look like?”
"Have you become a GG who can enter every competition but can't get good results?"
"Or is it what it was like before becoming an Asian team? How bad is it?"
"I have high expectations for you. I don't want you to become like that."
The atmosphere in the training room was a little silent. They all knew right and wrong, but the world in the eyes of young people was not only about right and wrong.
"I just feel that coach you should have communicated with us at that time." S1mple said in a low mood. What he cared about was his attitude.
"Communicate, will you listen to what I say?" Meng De said, "Or did I not communicate at the time? You don't think you are wrong. You all have your own ideas. Do my ideas still matter?"
"S1mple has been playing very well recently and training very hard. Everyone else is also very active. We have changed a lot." Wang Yuning saw that his teammates were a little silent and felt like speaking up.
Meng De looked at Lao Wang angrily: "You say good things about them in front of me every day."
Wang Yuning did not defend them this time, but smiled proudly: "That's because they are really good."
"Okay, okay..."
"Keep training."
It was late at night. After watching the training for a while, Meng De returned to his room with the team information of the challenger group. He continued to watch several games today and made simple changes to the information. When he returned
When I wanted to put the materials in the living room, the light was still on in the training room, and from time to time the team members' voices were heard communicating and reporting. They were working hard focused and seriously.
Depending on the situation, it may last for a long time...
Please give me a monthly pass. The update status will slowly recover. I will try to return to 10,000 words tomorrow.
