The Crown on a Wheelchair [Esports]

I have a fever

【Audience friends, this is the live broadcast room of ARTvsBYT in Group C of the 2016 Global Finals...】

Cocoon Breaking China Division officially cooperated with Tengshe TV to broadcast the global finals live. The invited commentators were two retired players. After the transformation, I opened a chain of Internet cafes in China and worked as a part-time anchor. This time, I am also happy to show up and share some stories about the world arena with you.

In addition, Zhu Wenbin (Crush), Lobster and others also broadcast and commented in their live broadcast room.

The performances of the three NPL teams have touched the hearts of countless Chinese.

"NirvanaPark looks like it has been renovated, and a circle of lights has been added above the seats." Poseidon said, "Okay, ART players have come to the arena to meet you, FRI brought his SpongeBob SquarePants, Lich is combing the dirty It seems that I have made a plan not to wash my hair for a month..."

Said softly: "Nightwish seems to have a strong interest in Dawn, he has been observing Dawn's action of untying the mouse line..."

"Okay, let's get back to the topic." Poseidon said, "Starting from BP, in this version, there is basically no suspense. Ban Penn, Poseidon, and Scorpion Fang are meat fighters in the top lane, and Ban Gunmen and Qiaoyan in the bottom lane. .”

"Yes." Qingyu said, "Actually, I think Yewish can win Vilotes, because BYT hasn't paid much attention to him. Can we test the weakness of BYT's mechanism through a group match?"

At this moment, the light board above Xia Liang's seat lit up the head of Biluodis.

The barrage was full of shouts.

"It's Biluotis!" Sea God said, "Ye Feichi also communicated with me before he left, it seems that he really wants to fight like this!"

"ART has always been this style of daring to think and dare to act." Qingyu said, "It's pretty good."

Poseidon said: "The lineups on both sides have been locked. We saw that BYT has snatched the gun demon, and combined with the support flow to single out the demon eagle Galio. It is a steady lineup, and ART..."

The camera panned across the stage, and the backstage staff showed the results of the contestants' drug tests.

This is the first time in the history of breaking the cocoon that doping testing regulations have been introduced, which represents another step forward in the fairness of e-sports.

Whispering paused for a while, raised the mirror frame, and rubbed his eyes.

Poseidon looked at Qingyu, and while continuing to explain, he patted his old colleague on the arm as a sign of encouragement.

As we all know, due to Qingyu's abnormal performance in the 2014 global competition, the coaching staff let the then substitute AD Ji Tian play, and the legend of Little Uranus was born.

But what is little known is that Qingyu was actually forced to withdraw from the game because of headaches and insomnia, and he took stimulants in private, which caused a sharp decline in his physical condition.

This is a past that only KL and Poseidon know.

"5 minutes! Yewish reached level 6 first by eating a small F6!" Sea God said, "He launched a combo at Dawn!"

- blue side -

Top-deep sea shark Matthew-ART.WuYao;

Jug-Sky Judge Lane-

Mid-Song of the Stars Vilotes-ART.Nightwish;

Bot - Adrian Wing Evan -

Sup-Port Bully Sharp-

Sup-Holy Shield Brown-BYT.Smile;

In the Nirvana Park arena, the atmosphere was driven by the single-lane duel in the middle.

Xia Liang's pupils reflected scattered golden flowers.

He doesn't care about the tumbling crowd and LED light signs behind the screen, his whole world is in the canyon.

Within 5 minutes, jungler Li Gui came twice, but he was predicted by Dawn's super consciousness and did not find a good opportunity.

Both his and Dawn's CS stats were flawless.

But because he ate an extra small F6 from Li Gui, he came to level 6 early.

At the moment of grabbing 6, Virotis unleashes a combo of moves, facing Galio, the undefeated magic eagle whose magic resistance bonus is not high at this time.

"Dawn flashes!" Xia Liang said, "5 minutes and 12 seconds!"

"Okay, I'll be on my way after I'm done." Li Gui signaled, "They're junglers, pay attention."

Chang Jinwen typed "Medium Flash Cooldown 10:12" in the dialog box as a record.

Xia Liang manipulated the mouse flexibly with her fingers.

He observed Dawn's movement.

Maybe when making up the first knife and releasing the first skill, every professional mid laner uses the same method.

But as time goes by, one operation after another, you can see the character and thoughts of the other party.

He has used this to defeat countless opponents.

But at this moment, he felt that Dawn was like a mirror.

He is fast, he wants to be faster, but he can't escape the speed of light, and he can't beat the person in the mirror.

The same is flash, compared to previous opponents who were either reluctant to let go or panicked, Dawn's flash was extremely decisive, and the landing point was just on the edge of the east wall, blocking Xia Liang's vision, and at the same time caused a blow to Xia Liang Ye Zai had the illusion of squatting back, and the moment Xia Liang stopped his hand, he entered the wild area and came back with a blue buff.

ART's sharp attacks in the middle and top lanes were all resolved by BYT in this form of spring wind and rain.

"Come again." Xia Liang said in his heart.

He still has 5 minutes to reorganize an assassination.

He returned to the city, avoiding the middle tower and going online from the river.

Bi Luo's hairpin was hidden in the jungle.

Xia Liang held his breath and concentrated.

Dawn's Galio flapped his wings, hovering on the edge of his attack range...

coming!

Ah!Xia Liang tapped the keyboard with her fingertips.

The hairpin flew towards the magic eagle, but at this moment, the animation stopped suddenly.

The screen was grayed out.

Xia Liang frowned, turned her head and found that it wasn't just his, the other four monitors were all grayed out.

"Network failure." Wu Ni's voice came.

Xia Liang let go of her hand, let the Q button bounce back to its original position, moved her body, and leaned back on the wheelchair.

No one spoke in the voice, because they had already felt the pressure from the world's No. 5 team in the first [-] minutes. ART was like a bamboo stick with marshmallows stuck in it. Tangled silk flocks.

Xia Liang took several deep breaths and closed her eyes.

He forgot when was the last time he encountered a network failure during a game, as if it was a long and distant memory, but fortunately, he had experienced it before, so he would not panic before the battle.

He knew that players were not allowed to leave the camera during the network failure, nor could they take off their earphones.They can maintain voice communication, but cannot communicate with anyone outside of the referee.

When the fault is eliminated, the system will let everyone confirm their return, and then continue the game through a three-second countdown.

Time passed minute by minute.

The team members of ART passed the uncomfortable stage, gradually relaxed their spirits and started chatting.

"The organizer will definitely be sprayed to death this time." Li Gui said, "It's fine that the hotel's power supply is insufficient, so is the game server also insufficient?"

"I can't do it anymore." Chang Jinwen said, "My butt hurts from sitting on this chair."

"The chair is a normal chair." Wu Ni said, "It's just that I don't feel it when playing games. It's really terrible to wait idle."

Song Shixun held his doll and didn't speak.

"Shixun, say something." Chang Jinwen said.

"I..." Song Shixun opened his mouth, "Sorry, I didn't expect this to happen, it shouldn't be."

Several people redraw the impression of BYT.

Top laner Nobody has a great sense of initiative and never gives in to opportunities; the jungler Joy's economic ability can be described as terrifying, and he doesn't take the initiative to Gank in the early stage, but he can support the three lanes in time every time; the operation of Dawn in the middle lane is like A person who can stand still with two wheels on a bicycle is precisely balanced and elegant; the coordination between Clear and Smile on the bottom road is tacit, not aggressive, and it is relatively the gentlest road.

In general, there are no edges and corners, so there is no way to cut in.

Xia Liang felt dry eyes and opened them again, seeing that 10 minutes had passed.

Normally, a game is over, but the network failure is still not ruled out.

The BYT players next to him were also sitting quietly and waiting.

The staff gave each player a bottle of mineral water and a cup of iced coffee in front of the plane.

The enthusiasm of the audience has cooled down, and the audience is the soft lighting effects and chaotic vocals.

"Now I not only have pain in my butt, but also pain in my ear." Chang Jinwen said, "This is murder, definitely murder."

Song Shixun and Wu Ni were lying on the seats, as if they had fallen asleep.

Xia Liang unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and was about to drink it when she suddenly felt sore in her lower abdomen.He put down the bottle calmly, covered his lower abdomen with his left hand, and gently rubbed it clockwise.

"Are you okay, Nightwish?" Li Gui asked.

"I want to go to the bathroom." Xia Liang looked backstage, "but I'm afraid the game will start."

"Go ahead, I will wait for you to arrive at the beginning before driving, what are you afraid of." Li Gui raised his hand and greeted the staff.

"Don't, don't." Xia Liang stopped Li Gui and said, "It's very troublesome for me to go to the bathroom, just wait and see."

[The reason for this network failure, according to the organizer's explanation, is due to too much traffic and unstable servers...Please wait patiently...]

In the live broadcast room of Breaking the Cocoon in China, Qingyu and Poseidon have chatted awkwardly under the camera for two hours.

From the changes of each hero in the new version, to the characteristics of each player in ART and BYT, everything that should be said should not be said, but there is no news about the continuation of the game.

Comments and bullet screens attacked the organizers for negligence.

Individual remarks have risen to geographical attacks.

[The stick is disgusting, disgusting to death]

[A nation that knows little courtesy but no great righteousness]

The director indicated that the two would share their experience in foreign competitions and talk about positive energy.

"Actually, when players go abroad to compete, they will encounter various problems." Poseidon said, "When I played the intercontinental match at EMG, in Berlin, halfway through the shower, there was suddenly no hot water, you know, wow , it is terrifying."

"Hahaha." Qingyu said cooperatively, "Facilities are one aspect. It feels more like the environment is not used to it. Being in a strange place and facing a strange culture is completely different from the feeling in China."

Poseidon said: "Yes, although e-sports is different from traditional sports, it also requires a lot of physical strength. Only with good physical strength can we maintain a high level of concentration."

"Yes, it must be a greater physical and mental test." Qingyu said, "Just like today's game, our players are waiting, and so are their players. As fans of NPL, we can express our support. But don't criticize the organizers because of this, this is basic quality, right?"

"Yes, we still have to believe in the organizer's original intention." Sea God said, "Everything will be fine."

After that, the director again accesses promotional videos and commercials to fill in the time.

At [-]:[-] p.m., at the Nirvana Park Arena, the staff of the event team began to distribute emergency purchases of McDonald's packages.

This was the longest network failure in the history of the Cocoon Breaking Global Competition. The scene was chaotic for a while, and some people began to ask for refunds.

The smell of coffee permeates the room.

Although Xia Liang's mouth was dry, he didn't dare to drink any more water.

He and his teammates entered a state of trance.

At this time, a voice from outside the venue finally sounded in the earphones.

The referee entered their communication system.

[All players please note that due to the time-consuming troubleshooting of network faults, players can temporarily leave their seats and enter their respective lounges for meals. The surveillance in the lounge will be on and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. 】

According to regulations, since no one from both sides proposed to restart, the game will still continue.

It is selfish for Xia Liang not to mention the reopening.

It is good to endure the physical discomfort, but there is no chance of a second chance.The A button of his assassination combo has already been pressed, and the moment the game resumes, the opponent must be unprepared, which is extremely beneficial to him.

"Let's go, go eat." Li Gui pulled La Xialiang.

The team members of both sides left the plane under the guidance and returned to the lounge.

In the rest room, the ART team members opened the working meal sent by the organizer and found that the meal was already cold.

In order to let the team have a hot meal, Li Sa was busy clearing the various levels, exhausted.Their team is staffed by physiotherapists, nutritionists and personal doctors, but these are now off the field and cannot be entered.

Everything is unplanned.

Many fans at home ordered takeaways for BYT players, including beef and hot soup, but the lounge in ART was deserted.

Xia Liang didn't bring anything, including diapers, medicine before and after meals, physical therapy massager, etc.

Because they only had this BO1 match today, they would have gone back to the hotel in at most an hour.

He watched Li Sa was sweating profusely, and couldn't bear to ask for more, so he asked the nurse to take him to the bathroom.

When he came back, he picked up the spoon and took two mouthfuls of the hard rice.

Fortunately, the weather is hot, so the vegetable soup will not freeze.

His teammates barely touched their meals.

At this time, the doorbell of the living room rang.

A staff member of the referee team politely knocked on the door and entered with a bento box in his arms.

Li Sa went out to get the documents.

Seeing this, Song Shixun stood up and spoke with the staff in Korean.

After a few simple exchanges, Song Shixun took the lunch box, sent the staff away, and turned around and put it on the table in front of Xia Liang.

"This is a lunch box given to him by Dawn's family." Song Shixun explained, "He said that maybe KL's work meal has gone cold, so he will give this to you."

Xia Liang was taken aback for a moment.

Li Gui had already opened the lid for him.

Vegetables, beef, seafood... everything, hot and soft.

"Wow, it's so rich!" Chang Jinwen picked up a spoon, reached into the lunch box, and stole a shrimp.

"Wait, wait a minute." Xia Liang said, "Shixun, I don't know him, did he give it to you and you give it to me?"

Song Shixun thought for a while and said: "No, what he asked the staff to convey is that although the network failure caused inconvenience to both parties, ART must have more difficulties in the away game. He is helpless and sorry for this. Personally He has been paying attention to you, admires you, and hopes to become friends with you."

After Xia Liang listened, she felt a warm feeling in her heart.

He accepted Dawn's kindness.

He did not expect that the first special favor he received in adversity was from his opponent.

At ten o'clock in the evening, as the theme song of breaking the cocoon sounded again, the referee announced that the fault had been eliminated and the game would continue.

Xia Liang returned to the plane again.

He was a little tired, but when he saw the hairpin that was about to pierce the enemy's heart, he felt that all his persistence was worthwhile.

[Confirm: enter the game]

The faces of Qingyu and Sea God reappeared on the screen in the live broadcast room of Breaking the Cocoon in China.

"Friends in the audience, we've been waiting for a long time, and we're back!" Sea God said, "Good things take time!"

"The game is about to continue." Qingyu said, "Here we see that Yewish's position in the middle lane has already completed a forward swing of Bi Luo's combo. It can be predicted that he is about to launch a single-line attack against Dawn .”

"Yes, this is a great opportunity!" Sea God said, "Let's count down together!"

3! 2! 1!

W!Leap forward!

Almost at the same moment when the screen changed from gray to color, Xia Liang pressed the W and Q keys, and the combo was seamless.

The hairpin slipped between Galio's wings, shattering a small piece of feather.

Xia Liang's eyelashes trembled.

The feathers fell, turned into stones, and shattered all over the ground.

Dawn also turned on the magic shield almost at the same time, moving out of his AOE damage range.

The height difference between the two heroes is only a hair.

Dawn's Galio has reached level 6! Dawn goes up the road and uses the big support move R!

Galio gathered momentum on the spot, turned into a fireball, and fell from the sky to hit the road.

BYT top laner Nobody resolutely seized the opportunity, flashing and imprisoning the Lich.

In the middle, Xia Liang had just finished using her control skills and was completely powerless to interrupt Dawn.

[Dawn: First Blood! 】

"Nightwish, what is this? No signal?" The Lich marked Dawn and dropped the mouse.

"I'm sorry." Xia Liang said, "Mine."

Xia Liang realized that Dawn deliberately approached the attack range of the grass.

The timing he was waiting for was already in Dawn's plan.

He didn't want to restart the game, and Dawn didn't want to restart it even more than he did.

BYT, so scary.

Within 10 minutes, BYT snowballed the advantage gained in the top lane, blowing up ART's base.

Xia Liang's screen reflects bloody English.

【Defeat】

It was a sleepless night for fans in China.

Poseidon and Qingyu tried their best to cover up everything with humorous language, but they couldn't deny that this game was a huge torture for ART players both psychologically and physically.

After the signal was cut, the atmosphere in the studio was not good.

Sea God said: "You can tell from their expressions on the stage for the second time that they must be uncomfortable. Whisper, do you think we should use our remaining energy to do something?"

Qingyu took out the glasses cloth, polished the lens slowly, and said: "KL contacted me yesterday, saying that the team members don't have air-conditioning over there, and the Internet speed is also very poor. Alas, it is also a basic operation."

Haishen said: "Let's also participate in the complaint through NPL's official channels."

Qingyu put on her glasses and nodded.

In the night, ART's car slowly drove back to the hotel.

Xia Liang rested her head on the window frame and dozed off with the curtain cloth as a cushion.

His teammates are still arguing.

Li Gui said: "As I said at the beginning, support can't take Hong Kong's evil. This thing is useless in the later stage, and it eats money in the early stage."

Chang Jinwen said: "It's not that you don't listen to me, should you come or not?"

Li Gui said: "What else do you do besides Zhuge Liang after the fact."

Chang Jinwen curled his lips: "I don't like to quarrel with you."

The quarrel did not stop all the way.

"Okay, the noise made me have a headache..." Xia Liang just opened his mouth when he suddenly felt hot all over his body and his head really hurt.

He pressed on his temple.

I didn't notice it when I was on the field, that is, after sitting in the car for a few minutes, it felt very obvious, and I lost the strength to speak.

He watched the mascot hanging on the front of the car sway from side to side.

He smelled perfume mixed with gasoline.

Vision gradually blurred.

Song Shixun raised his eyes and looked in the rearview mirror: "Yeyuan, are you okay?"

"I..." Xia Liang is very familiar with this feeling, "Go back and take a temperature test."

After hearing this, Li Sa quickly leaned over and touched Xia Liang's forehead.

Song Shixun asked: "How is it?"

Li Sa withdrew his hand, rolled up his sleeves, bit his thin lips tightly, looked out of the window, choked up and cursed.

Although Xia Liang himself was unwilling to give in, at the end of the first group match, he had a cold and a fever, which really affected his performance, causing ART to lose the next match against the North American team F00. win the game.

His illness this time is different from last year. Last year, he suffered sudden convulsions caused by overly nervous psychological factors.

But this time, it was caused by alternation of hot and cold, unaccustomed diet, neglect of nursing care, and insufficient rest. It was purely human factors.

The three clubs participating in the NPL jointly filed a complaint against the event party.

On the third day of the group stage, the phone of One Hammer's NPL agency office rang overnight.
