Time passed very quickly, and at midnight on May 16th, the preliminaries queue for the Peak Contest was closed.
[The War of Insects] has come to an end.
May 16th is the rest day for the competition, and players can take a day off.
In the early morning of the 17th, the [Battle of Cocoon] will begin. From the rematch, the game will be uniformly placed on the server in sleep mode, and the time is scheduled from one to two o'clock in the morning. When the game starts, you are not in the login space
Players who are on standby will be considered as forfeiting.
Every match in [Battle of Cocoon] will be broadcast live. Players can watch any match on the screen in the login space or conference room. Players who like liveliness can also go to the big screen of the game mall.
Watch it on the screen, the main screen will select a more popular game to play, and there will be two commentators from the game company to broadcast and comment.
Xiao Tan's results in the preliminaries were quite satisfactory, but he failed to complete his winning streak and advance, but played all 50 games.
Although he has achieved nine consecutive victories and defeated professional players like Bu Tiange, as Jue Ge analyzed, it is inevitable to encounter players who restrain themselves...
In the end, Xiaotan's results were fixed at forty-two wins and eight losses. Anyway, according to Feng Bujue's theory, such a record was enough to qualify.
Because Xiaotan had to work overtime for a week continuously starting from May 8th, he had already finished all the preliminaries on the 7th. During the week of overtime, he only played one or two scripts in sleep mode every day, basically during the day
It is no longer online.
In the past seven or eight days, Brother Jue, Xiyu, and Bei Ling have been lining up together as a team more often. If there are friends online, they will also call them to reduce the probability of meeting strangers... After all, Brother Jue
Now that he is a celebrity, he is always asked questions by passers-by.
It is worth mentioning that just as the battle for supremacy is in full swing...Dream Company quietly launched their second game - Crazy Thinking.
Of course, this is just a trial version. Currently, players can only play the practice mode with opponents simulated by optical brain, and the battle mode has not yet been opened.
This is a card battle game. The player plays the role of a "commander" who wears a "Duel Disk" on his arm, leads his own "deck leader", and commands the monsters, traps, magic, etc. transformed into cards to fight against each other.
The game can be directly switched to the login space; lie down in the game cabin, and after completing the neural connection, just click [Welcome to the game login space, the following are all the game projects provided by Dream Company, please choose to log in.]
Just select [Crazy Thinking].
At the beginning, Feng Bujue said that Dream Company had "big ambitions". He was indeed right. The game cabins, game helmets and other hardware devices launched by Dream Company are all unique models, and the games they launch are all based on their own hardware.
Exclusive. Just imagine... If one day, Dream Company's game cabin becomes compatible with other companies' games, then the hardware launched by other manufacturers will have no competitive advantage at all...

It’s May 16th, still five o’clock in the afternoon.
The list of 3,000 people who were successfully shortlisted for [Battle of Cocoon] was officially announced on the homepage of the official website.
In fact, as early as an hour ago, each finalist had received an email informing them of their promotion, and it was also marked in red. The system voice would also give detailed prompts when they logged in the last time.
In short, after the news was announced, some people were happy and some were sad.
The forum, which has gradually returned to stability recently, has once again started a posting frenzy.
Posts like "Hey... Did you really fail to advance after 35 wins?", "First it was ten consecutive victories, and then it was four consecutive defeats", "You rich people are not going to let anyone live anymore?" Such posts...or show off.
, or they are angry, or looking for excuses... Anyway, everyone who participated in the [Insect War] but failed to advance seems to be bitter and resentful. It seems that they have either been unfairly treated, or they have occasionally performed abnormally.
, bad luck.
But as the devil - Mr. Simon once said: Victory is victory or defeat. The loser is nothing more than that; the winner is the strong one.
The competition format of the preliminaries is quite reasonable. Most of the really capable players have advanced. If you are not shortlisted, you can only blame yourself for not being strong enough. Making excuses will not change anything.
…………
At eight o'clock that night, the rules of [Battle of Cocoon] were also listed in detail.
The Battle of Cocoon is divided into five rounds. There are also two additional rounds of playoffs.
At one o'clock in the morning on May 17th, the first round of [Battle of Cocoon] begins. Three thousand players will be randomly matched one-on-one to determine the winner group and the loser group, each with 1,500 players.
In the loser group, 1,380 players with poor preliminary results will be eliminated directly; the remaining 120 players will enter the play-offs.
At one o'clock in the morning on May 18th, the first round of the playoffs. The 120 people with the best preliminaries record in the loser group will compete against the 120 people with the worst preliminary record in the winner group...
A random match. The loser will be eliminated directly.
At one o'clock in the morning on May 19th, the second round of the play-offs will be played again by the 120 players remaining in the first round of play-offs. The 60 players who survived the two rounds of play-offs can join
Winner group.
At one o'clock in the morning on May 20th, the second round of [Battle of Cocoon]. There were 1,380 players in the winner group, plus 60 people who passed the play-offs, a total of 1,440 players.
, conduct random matching games. The loser will be eliminated directly.
At one o'clock in the morning on May 21st, the third round of [Battle of Cocoon]. Seven hundred and twenty advance to three hundred and sixty.
At one o'clock in the morning on May 22nd, the fourth round of [Battle of Cocoon]. Three hundred and sixty goes into one hundred and eighty.
At one o'clock in the morning on May 23rd, the fifth round of [Battle of Cocoon]. One hundred and eighty into ninety.
At this point, the [Cocoon Battle] stage is completed, and the last ninety players left will be combined with the ten specially invited players to form the top 100 and enter the [Butterfly Battle].
Basically... in this rematch period, if you want to go further, you can't lose a game...
These three thousand people are all the masters left behind after the big waves washed away the sand. I believe they also understand that every game is crucial. If you make a mistake and stumble, you will have to pay the bill yourself.
Of course, the competition system still leaves some room for players.
Considering that the top players are likely to meet prematurely in the first round, two rounds of play-offs are set up to give them a chance to make a comeback. At the same time, the play-offs can also test the weaker players in the winner group.
In addition... it is about the concept of "record", which is the most controversial topic. It has appeared on the forum... Some players won thirty-seven games and were promoted, but there were also some players who also won thirty-seven games but were promoted.
There is no promotion.
Regarding this point, Dream Company has given sufficiently convincing data. The system will calculate the total survival value, physical energy value, combat time, and skill value acquisition of each player in the fifty matches in the preliminaries.
Wait, and make a comprehensive evaluation. This evaluation will also be used when deciding the play-off list. It is the basis for judging which player has a better record in the case of the same victory.
…………
Early morning of May 17th.
Xiaotan logged into the game in sleep mode, preparing to face her first [Battle of Cocoon] with an uneasy mood.
If the feeling of the preliminaries is not much different from that of ordinary 1v1 killing games, then this rematch... is completely different.
This will be broadcast live, and if the randomly selected opponent is a well-known player, then the duel may even be shown on the main screen of the mall, and then be watched by hundreds of thousands of people under the commentary of the commentator.
Xiaotan has been quite low-key since he was a child and has not been exposed to the public very much. At this time, it is inevitable that he will become a little nervous.
However, these psychological stage fright reactions should be quickly ignored when the actual fight begins. Anyway, the players cannot see the audience or hear the commentary in the script; even if they are really selected, they will be on the main screen.
Even they don't know.
For players, just focus on the battle itself.
[Important reminder: The first round of the Cocoon Battle is about to begin. Please be prepared within ten minutes of the game time. The countdown will end and you will be teleported immediately.] The system voice sounded at 00:50.
After the prompt ends, Xiaotan only needs to open the game menu and see the countdown displayed on the upper right corner. (To be continued...)
