In terms of strength, he definitely has it, but in terms of honor, Gao Ran only has one honor in his entire StarCraft career, winning the StarCraft 2 World Championship.
Many people have this honor.
However, whether in the hearts of the audience or the hearts of professional players, Gao Ran is a player whose upper limit of strength is unknown.
This man is so terrible.
Now in just 3 years of career, he has already won 5 world championship titles, and the most terrifying thing is that they come from 4 different events.
This man is a monster, and he is already the greatest e-sports player in history, bar none.
And the most terrifying thing is that he has just celebrated his 20th birthday and entered a new stage of life.
We don’t know how much more he can accomplish in the future, but we can imagine...
Many people are wondering whether Gao Ran wants to complete the Grand Slam of gaming projects...
No one believed it before, but after Gao Ran won the championship in 4 completely different types of events, they are now a little shaken.
Gao Ran is now nicknamed the "God of E-Sports" in the world.
To be able to enjoy this nickname abroad, you can imagine how influential it will be.
…
In the official interview video before the game, all 32 players who came to participate in the game accepted official interviews.
A question was mentioned in the interview: “Who do you think will be the winner of this year’s World Finals in Katowice?”
Almost all players chose between Gao Ran and Satan.
Except for a few players who are extremely confident in themselves, they said so about themselves.
Gao Ran also told himself without any doubt. The reporter smiled and said that Satan said he was a challenger and wanted to challenge you, and asked Gao Ran what he thought.
Gao Ran also smiled and said welcome to give him a defeat.
Indeed, Gao Ran has now maintained a winning record in all world-level competitions he has participated in.
Especially in the two personal projects of StarCraft and FIFA.
So far, Gao Ran has not lost a big score...
Personal projects are almost invincible.
…
StarCraft is not as popular as other highly popular e-sports games.
After the World Finals started, the attention outside of fans was not very high, but on the day of the high-energy game, the number of spectators increased exponentially...
This is the influence of a super e-sports star.
Moreover, everyone is eager to know how Gao Ran's competitive status is and whether the hand injury suffered more than two months ago has any impact.
In the previous three days of competition, no one was surprised by the players who advanced.
Chinese player Ozawa didn't look embarrassed anymore. He defeated Korean player Ty after losing Stats first, and then lost Stats in the final qualifying match.
Sorry to be out.
The remaining two Chinese players, Gao Ran and Li Peinan, were both on the last day.
The strength of Gao Ran's group is relatively easy. The H group of Time includes Clem, Zest and a new European protoss Zark, and they are not weak in strength.
On the final day of the group stage, countless enthusiastic fans flooded into the official live broadcast room!
The commentary for the first game is also the most luxurious commentary lineup today.
Scboy duo, plus Macsed, a former professional player.
Last year, Teacher Sed officially retired, and now his focus is on live broadcasting.
After Star Wars becomes more popular, capital intervention will definitely have some impact on Scboy.
Now new commentators, including new anchors, are gradually emerging, but Scboy has a very strong fan base, and we can see that StarCraft is gradually getting better.
Just like what Brother Sun often said:
"It's all a good thing!"
In the official live broadcast room, three people were also sitting on the prepared commentary platform in formal attire.
The StarCraft competition is not like other popular competitions where commentary booths from various countries are prepared on site. There is definitely a big difference between the official commentary and their usual "cross talk" commentary in the live broadcast room.
After all, there is such a high degree of attention now, and many people outside the circle are paying attention.
"Today is the group stage of Group G and Group H. Both groups have Chinese players in them. Group G Gao Ran will be the first to appear."
"Group H is Time."
This time, in order to increase the popularity of the Group G competition, even the order of commentary has been adjusted.
Originally, Scboy's group only came up to explain for the second time every day. It was also adjusted today.
In order to give water friends a better viewing experience, after all, the popularity of Gao Ran's group is completely incomparable to other groups.
After chatting for a few minutes, the game footage arrived at the scene!
Time for the four members of Group G to appear!
Seeing Gao Ran on the field again, many Gao Ran fans breathed a sigh of relief and silently cheered for Gao Ran.
As the most famous Boss in the entire competition, Gao Ran will definitely be attacked by all players.
Many Canadian Chinese fans also came to the scene to cheer for Gao Ran!
There are only two positions on site. This is a feature of StarCraft competitions. Unlike FIFA competitions, players who are not competing in the StarCraft group stage will prepare and wait off the court.
"Okay, after the final debugging of the players, the first game will be a high-burning loss!"
"Judging from the strength of both parties, Gao Ran is definitely stronger than Los Ben."
Former professional player Mr. Sed nodded:
"That's right, losing money is no longer considered a first-line player in the Korean professional circle. In this kind of duel, Gao Ran must be careful about losing money and using tactics."
"There are still many tactics that the Zerg can use."
"You're right~"
After waiting for 5 minutes, the first game of Group G finally started. With the cheers on the scene, the audience also saw the game screen!
"The game is about to start. The person born in the upper left corner of the map in the first game is Team Dream's Gao Ran! In the first game, the Zerg is randomly chosen!"
"Still the signature random race!"
"The one born in the lower right corner of the map is the Korean Zerg player Soo!"
"It's a Zerg civil war, ZvZ competition!"
The game officially started, and Gao Ran also entered the game state at the scene.
Before the game, his wrist felt very good, no different from when he was healthy, and his operation volume gradually returned to its peak state.
At the beginning of the first game, both Gao Ran and Soo chose a normal second mine start.
"Both sides should open as normal when they come up."
"I feel that losing money may not be able to play normally with Gao Ran. There is indeed a gap in strength between the two."
The commentators speculated that two players, Gao Ran and Soo, also immediately flew their King Insects to the opposite base to conduct reconnaissance.
The power of Zerg Civil War 12D is very average. As long as you know how to defend, this second base cannot be dropped.
Therefore, Gao Ran is not worried that his opponent will be 12D at the beginning. He mainly depends on the subsequent tactics of the second and third mines.
Every player must have prepared strategies when coming to the World Finals. Even the casters know to be careful about Soo's tactics, and Gao Ran must also know it.
