Do you look like me? [Esports]

When Ji Ruici and Jiang Xi walked to the restaurant, there was already a hill of lobster shells piled up in front of everyone.

"Hurry up, hurry up, if you don't come, the lobster will be finished." Chi Feng greeted, "Sit down quickly, we will start talking when the two of you come."

Jiang Xi opened the chair and sat down, the coach took off his gloves and took out his mobile phone, "I posted the screenshot in the group, UAN didn't know why today he asked FVE to play a training match with JCG, the match between UAN and FVE this afternoon, At the end of 2:0, UAN won. JCG won the first game at night, but the next two games were basically under pressure. It was being played for fun, and the abuse came back in the next two rounds."

Except for Jiang Xi, the others obviously only knew about it now, they all stopped eating, took off their gloves and looked at the coach.

Glory said: "Didn't we never make appointments with Europe and the United States for training matches?"

The coach replied: "You guys don't know at a young age. In the past, even many years ago, we would still arrange training matches with Europe and the United States. When your boss was playing, we would go to Europe and the United States for training camps."

"I seem to have heard about the training camp, why didn't it disappear later?" TC enthusiastically moved the plate in front of him to Jiang Xi, "Eat what you eat, don't waste it."

Jiang Xi paused for a while when peeling the shell, then moved the plate to Ji Ruici's side, Ji Ruici understood, and put the shelled lobster into Jiang Xi's bowl.

TC was stunned on the spot, Jiang Xi took off his gloves slowly, and gave TC a look of "I knew it a long time ago, so stop pretending".

The coach didn't notice the little tricks here, and concentrated on his speech: "The domestic environment was not good before, and Europe and the United States saw that we were weak and would help the poor. Later, we became stronger, reached the finals, and started to compete with them for the championship. I’m not happy anymore, and I didn’t even make an appointment with us for the training match.”

"Speaking of which, why do we still have the feeling of revenge?"

"E-sports, fair competition." The coach dissatisfied, "And we are aboveboard, we don't engage in petty tricks, and we don't directly say rubbish in the pre-match video like they do. We are all very friendly, okay?"

When it comes to "right and aboveboard", Jiang Xi just paused for a moment, then returned to normal in a second, and continued to eat the shrimp that Ji Ruici peeled for him. Ji Ruici also looked normal, without any reaction.

He is not the one who has done disgraceful things, so there is no need to feel guilty.

The coach seemed to have opened up the chatterbox tonight, spit and told a bunch of young people about the past, and didn't remind him until Chi Feng was full, "Brother, let's get down to business."

"Ah, business, business." The coach pulled himself out of the memories of the year with difficulty, and said seriously, "Everyone has seen the results of UAN's training match with JCG and FVE today. The champion of the season, the whole team has no shortcomings, everyone is in the top ten in the server, even the substitutes are top ten players in the US server, and now JCG only won one game against them."

"Well, don't raise people's morale. We were unlucky last year. We met them in the semi-finals, but we won a round anyway. However, JCG did play against UAN in the final last year. It's five rounds." Chi Feng originally wanted to save face for his team's children, but he still didn't save face.

"So, what exactly do you want to say?" Jiang Xi asked.

"I'll ask you for your opinion first. That's it. If UAN comes to ask us for a training match, do I agree or disagree?" the coach asked.

"What happens if you don't agree?"

"If you don't agree, you will be ashamed if you don't agree, and you will be ashamed all over the world, because the manager of the stupid UAN will directly publicize who we played the training match with on Instagram, and when it is our turn, they will directly say that GTT did not agree. Our invitation to the training match, I don’t know if it’s because we don’t have time or we dare not fight with us.”

"Dare they say that directly?" Jiang Xi's chopsticks stopped.

This is too blatant. He doesn't play foreign social software that needs to bypass the wall, so he doesn't know the specific remarks of UAN on INS. He didn't know that they were so rampant. He used to dare not To say such a thing so blatantly.

"What's the matter!" Chi Bong continued, "You haven't seen it before. The year before last, when we were not in the World Championship, we went to watch the match. The UAN semi-finals met the No. [-] seeded team from South Korea. , They are also participating in the World Championship for the first time, a group of super polite kids, it’s okay to be abused by them, and the trash talk before the finals will be whipped. The captain of UNA directly said that they beat a garbage team in the semifinals , I've never seen anything like this."

"Then if we don't play training matches with them, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing, and maybe they will hold grudges against them at the World Championships." Eleven said.

Just as Jiang Xi wanted to say something, Ji Ruici, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "They won't ask us to play a training match."

"Ah? Why?" The coach obviously didn't know about those old things.

Jiang Xi was also a little puzzled. After all, UAN even found JCG. Moreover, Joehull and Cao Zhen were only the team leaders respectively. Most of the time, the captain and the coach had the final say on the appointment of the training match.

Jiang Xi looked at Ji Ruici, but Ji Ruici didn't explain anything, he just said, "If their coach or current UAN captain wants to find him, their team leader will not agree, but I have one more thing to say."

As soon as Ji Ruici opened his mouth, everyone fell silent, those who were playing with their mobile phones also put down their mobile phones, and all looked at him.

"No exact news has been released, but it should be close. The official news should be announced at the opening of the Intercontinental Championship." Ji Ruici said in an unhurried voice, "The competition specifications for this year's Intercontinental Championship and World Championship may be different. Big change."

"Change the game specifications?" Chi Feng was the first to respond, "Why didn't I hear the news."

Ji Ruici ignored him, "The specific change process hasn't come out yet, but I made a rough guess..."

"Can you still guess this thing?"

Ji Ruici glanced at Chi Feng. He didn't like someone to interrupt when he was talking. Chi Feng Mashan realized that he was breaking ground on Tai Sui, so he pursed his lips and closed his mouth. Ji Ruici continued: "In previous years, there were 16 teams. The teams drew lots for the top eight, then the top four, and then the final. A team only needs to play four games to reach the final. If they lose one game, they can pack up and go home. The new game rule is that each of the 4 teams has The opportunity to play against each other, and finally play the quarter-finals according to the points, play the semi-finals, and finally the finals, this is the specification of the intercontinental competition."

"After the intercontinental finals, there is no offseason. The four teams with the top 4 points in the four divisions all go to the host hall of the finals every year for an 4-day training camp. Every game in the training camp is directly counted as points. Just use this points to select the top 18, and the rest pack up and go home."

"Wait." The coach said, "Why do I feel that the rules of the game are so familiar?"

"Yes, it's the rules of the game eight years ago." Ji Ruici affirmed.

"I said it!" The coach slammed the table, "I said why UAN suddenly made an appointment for a training match across regions, and they must have known about it! He knew that we were about to enter the closed training period of the intercontinental competition I won’t make any appointments for training matches anymore, this is an appointment on a whim, just leave after the match, find out our details and wait for the next training camp to abuse our competition area, a bunch of foreign devils!”

The coach had a loud voice, and Jiang Xi rubbed his aching ears when he said the last cry of "foreign devils", deeply thinking that when his career ended, his hearing might also end with him.

"The purpose of saying this today is to allow you to train well in the next month. The World Championship is no longer an average quota for each division, and there is no protection mechanism for the group stage. When the World Championship hits the quarterfinals, you must not be halfway. They are all from European and American divisions." Ji Ruici put the last shrimp into Jiang Xi's bowl naturally, "There is no offseason between the two big games, only 18 days of devil training, followed by a group of game analysis Teacher, the scorekeeper is watching you every second, hoping that your points ranking will drop so that you can pack your bags and go home."

Jiang Xi put the shrimp into his mouth and asked vaguely, "Where is this year's World Championship?"

"San Francisco."

"San Francisco?" Fond, who was almost a dumb character in Jiang Xi's mind, suddenly said, with a strange tone.

TC immediately answered, "San Francisco, we are familiar with Fond, is it true that UAN used to be based in San Francisco, but now it has moved to Los Angeles."

"Yes."

Jiang Xi felt a little strange, and wanted to continue asking, but the auntie came in to clean up the food debris on the table, and the episode was interrupted, so she didn't want to continue asking, and everyone who had eaten and drunk went back to their room.

Jiang Xi came out after washing up and saw Ji Ruici still sitting in front of the computer dealing with official business, his brows were furrowed as if he was in trouble, Jiang Xi walked over, glanced at his computer screen, without looking carefully, and asked: " Do you still have something to say today?"

The author has something to say:

Ji Ruici: My wife still understands me
