At that time, Gao Ran only played FIFA and StarCraft.
Mainly because StarCraft is at the top of the game's "chain of contempt".
What is a game despise chain? It means that StarCraft despises War3 players, War3 players despise DOTA players, and DOTA players despise LOL players.
As long as you are a little more mature and have a little bit of thinking ability, this kind of mentality should not appear.
There is absolutely no distinction between superior and inferior games.
This is an important point.
…
"I find that you are more interested in girls than you are in games."
"This is the first time you've asked me so many questions."
Yang Chu looked at Gao Ran with a smile on his face, which also made Gao Ran a little embarrassed.
All you can do is put on your hat, put on your headphones, and listen to music!
If we go straight from Qingshan City to Yanjing City, it takes about 6 hours by bus, which is quite far.
In addition, they had to stop for lunch and then take a short rest, so it was estimated that it would be almost evening before they arrived in Yanjing.
Although I can practice as long as I fall asleep and feel high, I don’t dare to sleep in the car when I feel high.
Gao Ran didn't have the habit of snoring, but he couldn't maintain a sleeping position in the car. If he made a fool of himself, his reputation would be ruined.
The various departments in a college are not very familiar with each other, after all, they usually have little intersection.
Therefore, it was relatively quiet inside the bus. Everyone was doing their own thing. The bus was not bumpy and headed towards Yanjing smoothly.
…
In the Eight-School League, except for the Gl event, which is a points-based competition, all other events are single-player.
Eight teams will decide the final champion according to the single-tao competition system.
The competitions in the 7 events of the Eight-School League will last for 4 days in total. The finals of FIFA and StarCraft are scheduled on the first day.
Play the entire game in one day.
The top 8 matches will not be broadcast live on TV. This is the case for any single-player competition, including StarCraft, DOTA, LOL, and CSGO.
It will only be broadcast live on major live broadcast platforms, and interested viewers can watch it live.
Only in the top four, the championship game will be broadcast live on the e-sports channel. In total, there are only 2 semi-finals and a final, a total of 3 games.
A FIFA match lasts approximately 20 minutes, and a team match lasts about an hour. The estimated time is from 2pm to 5pm.
Then tonight is the live broadcast of the finals of the interstellar project.
The Eight-School League is exciting every year, and everyone has witnessed the first step to fame for many e-sports talents in this competition.
…
The text message on the mobile phone also reminded Gao Ran that he had arrived in Yanjing City.
This is a real big city!
The Yanjing E-Sports Academy is also in the center of the university town. In the city of Yanjing, the most famous one is the Yanjing E-Sports Academy. There are really many great talents in this academy.
At the gate of Yanjing E-Sports College, there are also students and leaders specially welcoming the teams from other colleges!
But it looks no different from a normal university, because during dinner time, students are coming and going.
When I see the Phoenix E-Sports Academy bus, I will have a little discussion with my friends.
The top talents of any e-sports academy cannot be compared with ordinary students, even at Yanjing E-sports Academy.
So for ordinary students at Yanjing E-Sports College, they don’t have any qualifications to be proud of.
Because I had been on the bus for 7 hours, I felt so relieved when I got high!
Then he followed the large army into this already famous e-sports academy!
In terms of facilities, Yanjing is still slightly better than Phoenix. This can be seen from the design of the teaching building, including details such as greening.
However, the e-sports academies are similar and there is not much difference.
In terms of food and accommodation, the one in Phoenix was more in line with Gao Ran's taste.
Every place has its own taste, and the food here is too sweet to complain about.
Because the Eight-School League is held every year here in Yanjing, accommodation and training venues are prepared early every year.
On the way to the dormitory, everyone met another college team wearing white uniforms!
Baiyu Esports Academy!
…
The two teams passed each other, one side was fiery red, the other side was pure white, every team member could feel it.
This competition will not be very friendly.
There seemed to be a flash of fire between the two teams.
Sure enough, after passing by the team from Baiyu E-Sports Academy, the young man in charge of leading the team from Phoenix also said:
"The atmosphere is like this every year in the Eight-School League."
"This is not an exchange match or a friendly match."
"The results of this competition will directly affect the development of the college and your personal development."
"So whether it's for yourselves or for the academy, go for it."
…
Eight-school league, this is an opportunity!
Opportunities for major professional clubs in China to showcase their talents.
Talented players in academies will be released by any academy as long as a professional club gives them a formal contract.
In the next two days, Gao Ran and others have been making final preparations in the training room.
Occasionally, we can meet team members from other colleges on the way to the cafeteria, but we don’t have much interaction.
The FIFA schedule will also be announced.
Basically, the directors of each major college draw lots.
Phoenix Esports Academy will compete against Wanzhong Esports Academy in the quarterfinals!
…
Wanzhong Esports Academy ranked fifth among the eight schools last year, slightly ahead of Phoenix Esports Academy.
However, the talent level of each college is different every year, so this has no reference significance.
Neither side knows much about their opponent and has never seen them before.
According to the only information available, the opponent's main player seems to be very powerful, and he is considered to be a standout in the FIFA department of Wanzhong E-Sports Academy this year.
The Eight-School League is not a professional league. It does not have the conditions to study the opponent's playing style. It can only adapt to changes and fully utilize its own strength.
The main venue for the live TV broadcast is the Yanjing E-Sports Arena. Gao Ran can only go to the e-sports venue to play games on TV if they defeat Wanzhong.
By then, thousands of students from Yenching College will come to watch the competition.
The quarter-finals will be held in a specially prepared classroom without any audience, face-to-face confrontation.
Each team can only have 1 coach and 3 players, just like professional games.
It was my first time to play in such a formal e-sports competition, even though I was very excited, I was still a little nervous.
Yang Chu even suffered from insomnia the night before. During the 10 o'clock game in the morning, Yang Chu didn't fall asleep until about 3 o'clock in the middle of the night and got up at 8 o'clock.
They will have breakfast and then do warm-ups before the game.
For professional players, they will try to ensure that they go to the game 1-2 hours after eating.
Because the state of fullness will directly affect the player's reaction. Simply put, the reaction will slow down after eating, and it will take about 1-2 hours to digest.
