Rise

Although we had agreed in advance that tonight, New Year’s Eve, we would try not to talk about business matters.

But some words still need to be said, and some warning bells still need to be sounded.

Today's national server has basically gotten rid of the shadow caused by the defeat in the World Finals more than two months ago. Not only the majority of national server players were attracted by the grandly held LSPL national trials after the reform, but also the national server e-sports circle Various professional teams have also regrouped their morale and begun to engage in training and preparations with high morale again.

This kind of momentum is a good thing and deserves gratification and encouragement.

Therefore, under such circumstances, it is indeed inappropriate to pour cold water on and dampen the enthusiasm of everyone in the national server.

That's why.

There are some things that must be said, and they are just suitable for the few people in this living room tonight to listen carefully.

"What you senior No. 3 said is actually right or wrong."

No. 1 put down the bottle and continued speaking in a calm and casual tone:

"Indeed, to be honest, if we really have to choose, even us old guys would not be willing to be in the same situation as you little guys."

"But on the contrary -"

"If you really have a choice."

"I would rather change my position than yours."

"Let you face those old guys from the same generation as us."

"As for SSK, leave it to us."

All the right and wrong words are said in one breath, which makes people feel a little confused and confused.

For example, Ouyang and Yang Fan, who were also sitting on the sofa in the living room at this moment, looked a little confused. Ouyang quietly pulled Zeng Rui and asked in a low voice:

"Hey, so what does this mean?"

"Which situation is better?"

"Does it mean SSK is the most awesome?"

Hearing Ouyang's whisper, No. 3 on the side already raised his eyebrows:

"Don't you understand this?"

"Of course the most troublesome thing is SSK."

Everyone else present had understood it by now, including Lin Feng, Dawn Morning Star, Huangxue Yege, Shi Hang, Tian Tian and others, all with heavy and complicated expressions on their faces.

Yes.

They understood the meaning of Senior No. 1’s words.

There is only one reason why I first said I didn’t want to meet SSK, and then I said I would rather meet SSK.

That is according to the opinions of seniors No. 1 and No. 3. Now, including the people in the living room, and even the entire national server professional e-sports circle, they still cannot find or even put together a team that is enough to compete with that Korean team. The team that competes with the strongest overlord.

Therefore, even though they know that this is the most troublesome target, for the two seniors, if possible, they would rather fight against SSK personally to try to gain a better chance of winning.

After thinking about this, the faces of all the current professional players present couldn't help but show feelings of shame and self-blame.

Today they...

It is still unable to truly shoulder the hopes and entrustments of several seniors. It is also necessary to let several seniors worry about their future while working hard.

And there is no excuse for this. At present, with the strength of each of their families,

It is indeed not a match for the strongest team in the world.

"If it's the seniors - they should be really stable."

Shi Hang thought of this and subconsciously murmured his thoughts.

Next to him, Tian Tian, ​​Huang Xue Yege, Chen Ting, Li Shiyi and others all nodded in agreement.

After all, for them, especially after seeing the strength of several seniors with their own eyes, the five-man lineup composed of several seniors was not only unmatched in the previous generation, but looking at today's new generation, it is definitely equally astonishing. Dominance——

Even earlier, in their private discussions, they were saying that it would be a pity to retire early because the seniors were obviously in the same condition as before. If they continued to play professionally, they might not have anything to do with the new generation of juniors like them. .

Only Lin Feng and Dawn Morning Star showed some hesitation.

Taking into account the expressions and reactions of everyone present, No. 1 smiled and shook his head.

Number 3, who was sitting opposite, could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he heard it:

"stable?"

"I said, don't take us old guys too seriously."

"If we really have the ability to defeat even the strongest team of your new generation, then why should we retire? Wouldn't it be better to continue to rule this new generation?"

In fact, this expresses the thoughts and feelings of many people here, but after it was exposed so directly and said out loud, it took on some other meanings.

Number 1 smiled and said:

"The third child is right."

"The strength of us old guys is indeed enough to take a look at, but it is not as exaggerated as most of you think."

Having said this, he paused and glanced at Lin Feng and Dawn Morning Star:

"You should know why."

Lin Feng and Dawn Morning Star looked at each other, then nodded slowly:

"physical strength."

"endurance."

Almost in no particular order.

The answers given mean the same thing.

No. 1 nodded:

"good."

"To put it more vulgarly, it's actually that I'm getting older."

"If the five of us are really allowed to fight against SSK, it's true that we can't fight."

"BO1, our chance of winning is 70%."

"BO3, only 60%."

"And if it's BO5——"

After another pause, No. 1 gave the final answer in a calm tone:

"Then the best chance of winning is only 50%."

…

When he said this, the atmosphere in the entire living room became completely silent.

In addition to Lin Feng and Dawn Morning Star, others such as Li Shiyi, Huangxue Yege, Chen Ting, Zeng Rui and Shi Hang also woke up. The more they understood the meaning of No. 1's words, the more they felt. The more he couldn't stop feeling heavier.

Only Ouyang couldn't help but scratch his hair and whispered:

"Fifty percent... isn't that small."

Yes.

On one side are the aging old men of the previous generation, and on the other side are the top kings of the new generation. They can still have a 50% chance of winning in a BO5 fight. This is definitely the prestige and glory of the legends of the previous generation.

Just the words came out, causing everyone else present to look at Ouyang without saying a word, but not a word of agreement or agreement.

Ouyang was a little embarrassed and shrank his neck:

"Um...did I say it wrong?"

Number 1 smiled:

"Not wrong."

"But what we want is not a 50% chance of winning, nor is it honor and face."

"I only want one."

"It's a hundred percent victory."

The update is here. I am still working overtime during the Chinese New Year. I have not been able to keep up with the updates in the past two days. I will try my best to return to normal next time.
