The moment before dawn is the darkest, not suitable for thinking.

Ji Jue's mind was a little heavy due to physical sleepiness, but the cigarettes made him sober again.

Just now Zuo Zhengyi said that he played professionally as if he was just playing. This is wrong.

It's not that Ji Jue doesn't pay attention to e-sports, he doesn't pay attention to anything else, and his whole life is like playing.

Like Zuo Zhengyi, he grew up without parents and grew up in a lonely environment.But he is completely different from Zuo Zhengyi, because Zuo Zhengyi is immersed in the illusion of "family" happiness, loved by his "simple" younger brother, and as long as he works hard, he will have a bright future.

However, Ji Jue understood from an early age that Zuo Zhengyi's ability to stay by his side was the result of his hard work and unscrupulous efforts to win.

But this is not a sacrifice or humiliation. It is like a customer visiting a supermarket and paying for everything he wants to eat.Equivalent exchange is the law of the world.

If Ji Jue wants to get Zuo Zhengyi, of course he has to pay something.

These sacrifices are both good and bad—in fact, Ji Jue does not agree with the so-called good and bad in universal values ​​at all. He does not care about the meaning of life, but only cares about his own desires.

"Meaning" is the most false and empty thing. He thinks it is not the original intention, but the shackles that society puts on people, so that people with evil natures have to wear sheep's clothing to pursue achievements that they do not agree with but others agree with. He was praised as "promising" and "dragon and phoenix among men".

Look, they are all human beings, but they want you to be the dragon and the phoenix.

What are the benefits of being a dragon and a phoenix?

Ji Jue's evaluation was: "It's none of my business."

His greatest wish in this life is to eat hot pot with Zuo Zhengyi, not to stand on the world championship podium with Zuo Zhengyi.To be precise, there is no difference between these two things in his eyes, regardless of high or low.

If they had to divide, the latter would make Zuo Zhengyi happier, and he would be happier too, so he was willing to work hard.

This effort is not only for Zuo Zhengyi, but also for himself.His love is not selfless and must be rewarded.

The basic idea of ​​his life is to obtain "return" through "unscrupulous means".He doesn't care about other justice and morality.

Although he is not crazy enough to challenge the bottom line of the law, it is not because he agrees with it, but because he understands the risk.

Ji Jue was silent and finished smoking a cigarette.

His thinking was extremely clear, and he had a high profile that everyone was drunk and I was sober, but after thinking for a while, it became blurred again.

According to his logic, his life should have only happiness and no pain, but this is not the case, pain is no less than happiness.

And in the process of his pursuit of happiness, the "risk" of getting in the way has increased.For example, he knew very well that if he did something, Zuo Zhengyi would cry, so he would not dare to do it.

The older he grows up, the more merciful and soft-hearted he is, not as decisive as he was when he was young.

Even being "PUA" by Zuo Zhengyi, he even started to reflect, is it true that his life is too futile and meaningless?

Ji Jue lit another cigarette.

Cigarette sparks flickered in the dark room with no lights on, and he picked up his phone.

80.00% of his albums are photos of Zuo Zhengyi.Zuo Zhengyi has a rich expression, but he likes to pretend to be deep unconsciously. Whenever he lifts his phone, he will be stared at several times, and he will be warned "no sneak shots".

But Zuo Zhengyi was duplicity, in fact, it's nothing to shoot, it's just a scare, a paper tiger.

No, it's a "paper cat", just like Xiaojian, it's okay to meow blindly and play prestige.

Ji Jue couldn't help laughing.

In the silence, his laughter woke him up.Ji Jue took a puff of cigarette forcefully and exhaled a large puff of smoke. His lungs were almost emptied, and there was an echo in his chest. It was Zuo Zhengyi's angry "How do you understand my mood".

Don't you understand?

How could you not understand?

But Scorpion's current problem cannot be solved by Zuo Zhengyi alone. This is an objective fact.

How many teams' managements have tried their best to reorganize the team, but still can't achieve good results?What's more, it is now the end of the season, and even if Scorpion wants to change the coaching team, it will have to wait until next season to implement it.

Zuo Zhengyi ignored this objective fact and made things difficult for himself, which was purely self-torture.

Ji Jue smoked a cigarette until the sun was shining, and then threw the lighter and the cigarette case away.

……

For the next few days, the atmosphere in the Scorpion base was gloomy.

The Champions Cup was eliminated, their double lanes changed to single lanes, and the schedule was a little looser. All day on April 4th, the whole team was replaying the XYZ game.But even after a day of review, no effective coping tactics were developed.

In fact, the theory is very simple. If you don’t have tactics, won’t you learn from others?

But the problem is that the style of play that is suitable for other teams may not be suitable for Scorpion. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses, and so does the team.Moreover, actual combat emphasizes flexibility in basic thinking, and there is no standard formula.

Most importantly, Scorpion has been seen through.

XYZ gave a sample to the whole EPL, and now everyone knows how to deal with Scorpion.Although different teams have high and low levels, as long as they play in this way, Scorpion will definitely feel uncomfortable.

As a result, Scorpion lost another game on April 4.

The opponent is the UG team. UG imitated XYZ and almost reproduced that game, but because of its poorer skills than XYZ, it was not easy to win, and they played back and forth with Scorpion, and narrowly won 2:1.

It's hard to describe Zuo Zhengyi's expression after this match.

Netizens commented on Scorpion as "finally exposing the essence of a third-rate team." Scorpion's official blog was full of curses, and tens of thousands of people resigned as head coach.

On April 4, Zuo Zhengyi fell ill.

It's not a serious illness, just a little fever, and it will be fine in two days.

In the past two days, he couldn't eat, and Ji Jue forced him to eat more every meal. The medicine was forced into his mouth by Ji Jue, and he even coaxed him to eat it.

But Zuo Zhengyi was not lazy, and he was still very active in training.He seems to have no choice but to train hard as a lifeline.

——The atmosphere in the base is terrible.

Building morale is hard, but breaking it down is easy.The miserable two-game losing streak almost shattered the bones of the scorpion, making this "strong team" that was winning streak half a month ago not even stand firm.

The lower the morale, the worse the performance, which has formed a vicious circle.They haven't been able to play well in the recent training games, and they lose more than they win.

In fact, temporary failure doesn't hurt people that much. What really hurts people is seeing no hope.

After losing to UG, Scorpion's EPL ranking dropped from No.3 to fourth.

The top three are CQ with 53 points, Lion with 48 points, and SP with 47 points.

The Scorpions only had 45 points.

And there are only six games left.

It's a bit self-righteous to talk about the championship now, and no one has the confidence anymore.Even Zuo Zhengyi, who refused to give up from the bottom of his heart, changed his EPL goal from "championship" to "getting a ticket to the World Championship".

EPL每年只有三个进世界赛的名额，No.1和No.2直接入选，No.3和No.4要打比赛来争夺最后一个名额。No.5及之后连门都摸不着。

Zuo Zhengyi's bottom line is that he must enter the World Championship.

But Scorpion's current state is not favored by anyone.Even the fans of the team are scolding: "Forget it if you fall out of the top four, and save the embarrassment of sending food abroad."

Most of these scoldings were directed at the coaching staff and management, and some people didn't forget the players after scolding the coaches. Unstable performance on the road...

All in all: a third-rate team, it is better to disband.

Sun Chunyu was the most scolded among all the people. He had a character of being unable to handle things.The more the team fans scolded him, the less he could think about it, and he was in such poor condition that he almost immediately took the blame and resigned.

But now I have to pay liquidated damages for my resignation, and I am not responsible for other people.After much deliberation, he still stayed, although the difference between whether to stay or not didn't seem too big.

Strictly speaking, he is not a coach without talents, but his talents are relatively limited.

Coaches, like players, have their own style tendencies.When Scorpion hired him, they were still building a team around the bottom lane, with ADC as the core development.

Sun Chunyu is best at this kind of gameplay.

However, due to the changes in the team's personnel and the major changes in the game version, the current mainstream gameplay has become the one that Sun Chunyu is least good at.

How could he not be another "Zhu Yuhong"?Those who are cautious and conservative can only take a cautious and conservative route, and it is difficult to adapt to the current fierce and changeable assassin version.

But Sun Chunyu also knew that these were all excuses for evasion, and the lack of level was the real essence.

Sun Chunyu is better than Zhu Yuhong in being able to recognize his shortcomings, but it is useless to recognize his shortcomings. The result is the most important thing. The only purpose of competition is to win.

In order to win, Zuo Zhengyi almost boiled himself dry.

These days he put down everything outside the game, including love.

Ji Jue faintly noticed that he seemed to have an idea, but he hadn't said it yet.

On the night of April 4th, Ji Jue's guess was confirmed.

At about 11:30, Scorpion just finished today's training match and started replaying in the conference room.

Today's training match is an intra-team match. Since it has been targeted too severely recently, it is already difficult to help Scorpion in training outside the team. Instead, it will further penetrate the bottom.

The replay was as dull as ever.

Zuo Zhengyi came up with his own ideas just before the end. He sat in the corner, silent, as silent as a mural.But as soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted everyone's attention.

Since he hadn't smiled for a long time, the pressure on his shoulders failed to crush him, and his aura naturally became more serious. When people just looked at him, they couldn't help pinning their hopes on him.

Since entering the WSND first team, Zuo Zhengyi has played this role.It was just relaxed and playful before.It's tough now, the building is about to collapse, and the closer you stand, the more likely you will be smashed underneath.

Zuo Zhengyi didn't seem to be afraid, he was a model of getting stronger through setbacks, and there was a brilliance in his eyes that would never go out even if he died.

He actually said: "Now we are training a new lineup every day, studying how to solve the fundamental problems of the team. But there are only six games left. Is there a difference between a temporary solution or a permanent solution? How did we win before?"

The rest of the people stared at him for a moment.

Zuo Zhengyi said: "It's better to go all the way to death, and practice a few more magic core lineups. Jialan and Laura can't kill me, and it's okay if they can't get magic thorns. I will pick two of the weak magicians with good mechanisms to practice. —Even one will do.”

"..."

He understates the training of heroes, as if it is simple and easy to do.

Doing so is not a long-term solution, it is going to extremes.

But as he said, there are only six games left, so what is "long"?Even the road is gone, if you don’t go to the extreme, where else can you go?

The wounded scorpion needs a shot of painkillers that will work immediately, and we will talk about it later.

But this medicine is for other people's pain relief. Zuo Zhengyi didn't mention how much risk he had to take, how much effort he had to put in, and how much infamy he would have to bear if he failed.
