In the following days, although other teams have relaxed their vigilance and played and rested, Lin Feng and his team still did not relax. After all, the draw has not started yet. Who will they face in the group stage? is also a problem.
Although the probability of directly drawing SC in the first round of the group stage is only 1/16, they must remain cautious. After all, it will be difficult to deal with the top two teams.
A week later, we arrived at the group stage draw for the playoffs. This draw ceremony can be performed by anyone in the team.
The coach originally planned to ask Lin Feng to complete this fund-raising, but Lin Feng politely refused, saying that he was not lucky and might get a stronger team, and then he would have to bear the consequences. After all, there is no benefit in this kind of thing. If a powerful team is drawn, whoever draws lots will definitely take the blame.
The coach decided again and again to go up and draw the lots himself.
Although there will be no formal games at the lottery ceremony, because this lottery is also relatively important, there are still quite a lot of spectators off the field. Everyone is waiting for the list of the first round of the playoffs.
When it was the coach's turn to play, the coach clasped his hands together and muttered something, praying for something. Then he reached into the lottery box and randomly grabbed a table tennis ball.
When I picked it up and looked at it, it said No. 8. According to the normal rules, No. 1 played against No. 16 and so on. The No. 8 they drew should play against the No. 9.
The coach looked around at this time, wanting to see which team had drawn the number 9.
But at this time, the other coaches hid their table tennis balls from the other side, and then waited for the host of the organizer to announce the next result.
As the organizer read the words one by one, the first and second place teams had already drawn their own players. At this time, the coach finally breathed a sigh of relief. When the number 9 was read, everyone raised their concerns. Inside the throat.
With the host's understatement, player No. 9 was finally announced: "The team drawn No. 9 in the group stage this time is the SC team."
Hearing the news The coach was like a bolt from the blue. He had been playing poorly in the previous half of the season just to avoid this team. In the end, he didn't expect to run into them in the first round of the group stage.
Lin Feng also sighed in the audience at this time, and then said to his teammates: "It's over, now all the efforts are in vain. Fortunately, I didn't go up to smoke. If I had smoked, If I win, I will want to chop off my own hands when I come back.”
The coach was standing on the stage with dull eyes, staring at the audience, even though they were the most unlucky now. A team that is willing to face it, but now that things have happened, everyone still has to accept it as soon as possible. After all, in less than a week, the playoffs will officially begin.
After the lottery ceremony was over, the coach walked down from the stage in a daze. He came to the position of his team members and sighed. At this time, a team member also stood up and comforted the coach.
"It's okay, coach. Now that things have happened, let's all work hard next. Isn't it the SC team? There's nothing terrible about it. Just because we can't win him in the regular season doesn't mean we can't win in the playoffs. , do you think so?"
Everyone nodded in agreement, but at this time the coach still blamed himself. After all, his team was facing a very dangerous game this time because of his own draw.
The coach said to everyone: "I'm really sorry for drawing such an opponent. It seems that our efforts in the past half of the season have been in vain. We met SC in the first round. I didn't expect this 1/ The probability of 16 is actually overtaken by us."
Lin Feng also stood up and comforted: "It's okay, it's just a matter of luck, it has nothing to do with you, everyone can understand, it's not a big deal for us. I will practice more in the next few days and study their tactics carefully to see if I can find some breakthroughs.”
Although Lin Feng and the others have never defeated this team once during the regular season, basically no team will study the opponent's tactics and habits during the regular season. Only in the playoffs will everyone study each other.
After all, the playoffs are the real stage for winning the championship. As long as I thoroughly study the opponent's tactics and can win the opponent, I will be one step closer to the championship trophy.
Everyone returned to the club with a heavy heart. Although they said it didn’t matter, everyone was actually quite sad. After all, they had worked hard for this playoffs. The preparations for the season and the second half of the schedule have basically been messed up, for fear of encountering this team.
Originally, we thought we could succeed and avoid SC in the second round, but no one expected that we would encounter them in the first round of the group stage.
After returning to the team, the coach found a lot of SC team’s previous game videos and began to prepare them for everyone to watch. After all, the playoffs are coming soon. If he continues to train in large quantities every day, it will not be possible. There will be some great results. The most important goal now is to study the opponent's tactics.
Compared to training, studying the game video is much easier than training. Everyone is sitting in the training room, watching the SC team's game video played on the big screen in front.
At this time, they discovered a problem. When facing other teams, the SC team did not actually show very strong pressure. It felt like an ordinary team.
But what they don't understand is why this team feels like they have been beaten to death every time they encounter them, and their strength is very strong.
At this time, Lin Feng was carefully observing every detail of the SC team, studying their tactics carefully, and found that he did not see anything different from them. It was just like him, but it seemed that their attitudes were different. , played relatively loosely when facing other teams, but played very aggressively when facing Lin Feng and his team.
The coach seemed to have seen through this, and then asked everyone: "I don’t know if you have noticed. This team is actually not that strong when beating others, but why is it so bad in the regular season? They defeated us for the first time." At this time, a team member said: "I think it was the psychological shadow left after we were defeated by them the first two times. In fact, they are not that strong, but we always feel afraid of them. Maybe we can actually beat them if we fight normally.”
Lin Feng shook his head and said: "It's definitely not that simple. They have definitely studied our team, because I am usually not sure which position I will play, so the tactics they adopt are to play more aggressively, regardless of Whichever position I play, it puts great pressure on my other teammates, which makes it difficult for me to perform."
The coach nodded and said, "I have also discovered this. They played very steadily when playing against other teams, and they basically didn't ask for any solo kill opportunities when playing online. They only kept looking for our mistakes when they played against us, and wanted to kill us solo. To put it bluntly, I am fighting against Lin Feng. "
Lin Feng sighed and said: "This is not easy to do. Generally, other teams know that I am an all-around player and can play any position. It was not easy for them to target me, but they seemed to have seen through our tactics.
So what they adopted was to comprehensively suppress my other teammates online, so that no matter where I was, My teammates must be at a disadvantage, and it will definitely be difficult to play in the end.”
At this time, the management came to the club and saw that everyone was sitting together to analyze the video carefully, so they quietly walked behind everyone. Because everyone was in a serious discussion, they didn't even notice that the management was coming.
Coincidentally, Lin Feng mentioned the management at this time.
“If the management knew that we had gone through so much trouble here and finally met a team we didn’t want to meet, they would probably be furious. After all, we had run away with so many teams. Sponsors have indeed caused a lot of losses to the team.”
The management staff said from behind: “Didn’t you swear that the million dollars was for the team? Now in the end, you still met this team. All my sponsors have been scared away by your poor results. Let me see what you do next. If you are eliminated in the first round, each of you will not be able to survive.”
Lin Feng was startled when he heard this. He quickly turned around and saw the management staff standing behind him. He immediately closed his mouth, knowing that he had said the wrong thing.
At this time, the coach hurriedly smoothed things over and said: "This is all my fault. I am really not lucky. Who knew that I would encounter such a low probability and get SC directly. But please rest assured, leaders of the management, we are here I will definitely work hard to win the game and I will definitely not be eliminated in the first round."
The management staff snorted and left. After he left, everyone finally relaxed. He breathed a sigh of relief. After all, although he seemed quite angry this time, he didn't scold everyone. Normally, he would have scolded everyone bloody.
After the leader left, everyone continued to watch the video for a whole day. Basically, apart from the tactic just mentioned, they didn’t see anything else.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. After all, the playoffs are about to begin. If we continue to practice until midnight every day, everyone's mental state will be better by then. None of them are very good. We should still maintain a good spirit so that we can perform well in the playoffs.
After returning to the room, Lin Fengye did not rest. Instead, he continued to watch all the SC team's previous game videos with his mobile phone. He watched some of the more important details over and over again until he fell asleep after watching it until midnight.
At breakfast on the second day, everyone came to the restaurant early.
After Lin Feng arrived, he walked directly to the coach and said.
"Coach, I watched the SC team's game video for a long time last night and repeatedly observed their team's tactics. I found that they have no core."
After hearing this, the coach Asked: "What does it mean to have no core?"
Lin Feng replied: "In other words, they do not have any point that is very strong, very invincible and difficult to break. To use the simplest analogy, our team The core of some teams is me. The core of some teams is wild core, but their teams don’t have a clear core.”
The coach asked: "Then according to what you said, they have no core, so everyone is very strong. Wouldn't it be more difficult to defeat them?"
Lin Feng shook his head and said: "Although they each Everyone is very strong, but everyone has not reached the core strength, so everyone can be used as a breakthrough. In the past few days, we only need to study which position is weakest, and then put me on his opponent. Anyway, I can play in any position, just target their weakest one."
At this time, a team member stood up and said, "Aren't you Tian Ji's horse racing? If the best people deal with their worst people, then the rest of us will be beaten to death by them."
After hearing this, Lin Feng replied: "Do you have to give them a chance? Is that all you need to do is to steadily earn money online, and there is no need to think about killing the opponent alone. As long as you leave the opportunity to me, I will definitely find a breakthrough from their weakest person. When the time comes, we will definitely Can win the game.”
After listening, everyone nodded and thought Lin Feng’s suggestion was good. Then everyone continued to come after breakfast. When they arrived at the training room, the coach turned on the big screen and continued to play for everyone. Looking at the SC team's past game videos, everyone has been carefully looking for this team's breakthrough.
After watching it for a whole day, they found that the weakest person on the opponent's side was the top laner. Although this top laner had a relatively strong roaming ability, through so many games, they found that the opponent's top laner was better at laning in the lane. In fact, his ability is not very strong. He has always been able to gain an advantage simply because he often helps his teammates catch people.
And some of the heroes that the top laner on the opposite side often uses are also powerful roaming heroes. The summoner skills he brings every time are basically flash and teleport, which are basically never used. It can bring ignition, which means that he basically has no ability to single-kill opponents online.
This time they finally found the SC team's weakness. As long as Lin Feng is placed in the top lane position, they should be able to win the game. (End of this chapter)
