"You have to be prepared to lose in StarCraft. Don't be too stressed during the competition."
"This is a rare opportunity for you to communicate."
"In fact, if you want to continue playing in Dream Club, there is no problem at all with the current situation of the club."
Gao Ran discussed the stakes with the two newcomers and avoided the previous problem.
Dream currently does not require much capital to operate an interstellar branch. With Dream's current economic situation, there is no pressure at all.
First of all, like many clubs, we won't play today's game thinking about whether the division will be disbanded tomorrow. Secondly, we will have a stable chance to play.
"I'm afraid that if we keep losing, the team won't be able to make the playoffs, which will hold you back."
The relatively straightforward newcomer, whose ID is Jq, is a Zerg player with a rather reckless style of play.
"What are you worried about?"
"Will the media blame me for my teammates' poor performance?"
"Absolutely not. On the contrary, you must be prepared to face the pressure of the media. Although you are newcomers, you now know the media's irritating nature."
Gao Ran said seriously.
"hiss……"
"It seems so."
Another newcomer, Fox, is a Protoss player and is a little more introverted. The two of them thought about Gao Ran's words and found that they made some sense.
Interstellar is a personal project, not a team project.
Gao Ran's reputation must be his own performance. For example, Gao Ran himself has 15 wins and 0 losses, and his teammates have 0 wins and 15 losses.
The media will definitely not say that Gao Ran is not good, they will definitely only say that they are not good...
"As for the champion..."
"There is hope if we make it to the playoffs. Let's focus on making it to the playoffs first."
Gao Ran really wanted to win the championship, but he didn't want to sacrifice the careers of two rookie players.
Why do I say this? Because StarCraft has a wave of tactics. In order to win the game, the two newcomers can use the most extreme tactics in the game.
As long as they win one tactical game, Dream has a chance to win the league.
However, with such a good opportunity in the competition, we will not make progress if we just use a wave of tactics.
Gao Ran felt that it was better to let nature take its course and not force it.
"You guys just play normally."
"You should practice your basic skills well in the past two weeks. You can come to me to watch some game videos at any time."
"Don't be embarrassed to speak up. If you want to make progress, you must be more serious."
Gao Ran said everything he needed to say, and he couldn't help the two of them much in the rest of the practice.
The master leads you in, and practice is personal.
Regardless of any project, basic skills are the most important.
If these two people can stand out in the Phoenix E-Sports Academy, they must be willing to put in the hard work, otherwise they would not be able to stand out in the academy.
Seeing these two people starting to practice with each other, Gao Ran couldn't help but smile.
He laughs because he has a feeling that in this industry, it is always the newcomers who are the most motivated.
He can maintain hard training before proving himself, which he has seen a lot in the e-sports circle in the past few years.
Moreover, because of their young age and good physical condition, newcomers have a higher upper limit than some veteran players.
Because even some veteran players, no matter what industry they are in, their professional habits are not good, and they have developed habits after so many years of playing professionally and cannot change them in a while.
…
In the next week, except for one day when I attended an endorsement event, I basically spent the rest of the time in the club doing high-intensity recovery exercises.
High-burning mainly involves high-intensity training with three or four players.
In addition to the two top Chinese players, the remaining two training targets are the Innovation "satellite" and Dear "parent" of the KZ team.
They are two Korean first-line players who have passed their peak. They are not considered top now, and their world ranking is slightly higher than Time.
Before they played a practice match with Gao Ran, they always felt that their opponent was a bit ridiculous.
They have been playing professionally for so many years, and they have never seen any random player do well.
The high amount of practice required in StarCraft is not enough to support a player to complete the practice and research of three races at the same time, but when they actually played against Gao Ran, they were completely stupid.
After only playing 2 games, they knew that their opponent was indeed a very strong opponent as Time said...
In Satellite's current condition, he can still compete with Gao Ran, but his parent has almost no chance.
Of course, it is not clear what percentage of the strength these Korean players used in training matches.
After the training match, the entire KZ team began to study the video of Gao Ran's game. The game video also contained Gao Yan's first-person perspective, which was simply exaggerated...
While fighting head-on, you can also operate it at home.
Just like the AI they had encountered before.
Moreover, Gao Ran's operation feels very rhythmic, and each step is calm and unhurried. In the mid-term, when operations are most frequent, Gao Yan can maintain ultra-high-intensity operations.
The most important thing is to think clearly.
This is a consistent feature of high-burning games.
Whether it is Dota or PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Gao Ran's thinking has always been his greatest weapon. The processing experience practiced in the system allows Gao Ran to maintain a calm mind in all situations and find the solution he thinks is most appropriate.

There are many styles of interstellar games.
However, it can generally be divided into 4 major schools.
[Stable]: The most basic way to play the game, which is what everyone calls normal play.
Find a balance between military strength, technology, and economy, do a good job in reconnaissance and defense, be able to defend when the opponent rushes, be able to barely keep up when the opponent steals the economy and uses technology, and can transform according to the situation.
One-size-fits-all approach.
Using operation and management to defeat the opponent is a strong player's style of play. The stronger the opponent, the more stable the opponent will be.
However, if you encounter an opponent who steals economy and technology to the extreme, you will be left behind.
[Steal]: This is a play style that abandons troops in the early stage and steals the economy and jumps to technology to the limit.
The advantage is that when the opponent has no rush or effective suppression, it can crush the opponent with absolute strength/technology advantage in the middle and late stages of the game.
The disadvantage is also very clear. When the opponent uses extreme fast attack tactics or a wave of tactics in the early and mid-term, it is easy to be killed due to insufficient troops.
There is a saying that "if you close your eyes, you will steal. If your opponent attacks you, I will GG."
Many weak players will use this method to gain a certain advantage when fighting against strong players.
[Dog]: Mainly refers to using extreme rush play in the early stage or using some strange tactics to attack.
The advantage is that if the opponent is not detected and does not carry out effective defense, he will be seriously injured in the early stage or even resolve the battle in a short time, such as the famous 12D, building a bunker, etc.
The disadvantage is that if the opponent plays very steadily and has the necessary discipline, then once the rush is detected, the situation will be at a huge disadvantage.
[Mang]: It’s just one word - Qian.
In the mid-term, the crazy troops rush, regardless of subsequent operations and technology, and strive to kill the opponent in a wave in the mid-term. The shortcomings are also the shortcomings of the above dogs.
If detected, GG.
In the Dream team, Jq is more aggressive and Fox is more stable. They have two completely different styles.
Gao Ran belongs to me, I have them all...
Time and Gao Ran have been fighting for the past few days. Gao Ran has been using basic tactics steadily, and he has also been attacking secretly. There are so many stupid tricks, and it is unreasonable to act recklessly...
Two weeks have flown by, and the first round of the StarCraft Golden League Spring Split is about to begin.
What everyone is most concerned about is undoubtedly this round of focus battle between KZ and Dream!
