This year’s Spring Festival falls on January 23, earlier than in previous years. Pei Qian looked at the calendar and calculated the time. After the exam this week, he would spend a lot of energy on spending money and settling accounts.
When he came to Moyu Internet Cafe, Pei Qian drank a drink and checked his phone to see if there was any recent news.
"Huh? Foreign media revealed that the FV club was unable to make an appointment for a training match?"
Pei Qian did not want to pay special attention to the news about the FV club, but this news was in the game And the headlines on the front page of the e-sports area, it’s okay not to pay attention to them.
After seeing this news, Pei Qian perked up and quickly clicked in to check.
This is a piece of gossip from foreign media, and the source of the foreign media seems to be clubs in Europe and the United States.
The news itself is very simple. The reason is that this media went to interview various European and American clubs that entered the quarterfinals before the start of the quarterfinals, and briefly asked about their current status and training match conditions. One of the clubs said that FV Club made an appointment with them for a training match, but they did not accept it.
Of course there is no stone hammer for this kind of gossip, not even chat records, but the media that broke the news is still relatively famous, so it was quickly reprinted by major media.
The quarter-finals will not start until the weekend, and the GPL Spring Split will also start this Saturday, so there will be no news in the e-sports circle during this period. Such a piece of gossip without a stone hammer made the headlines and sparked heated discussions.
Pei Qian doesn’t know whether Longyu Group is involved, but seeing the popularity and discussion of this news, it is impossible to say that there are no trolls behind it.
There have been a lot of comments below this news, and many people are badmouthing the FV Club.
"No training games? Isn't this too miserable?"
"Then you still have to play a hammer. Is it possible that you can only play in the ladder game? In the quarterfinals Isn’t it going to be bloody torture?”
“This must be the negligence of the club’s management, right? You must make an appointment early for a training match. If you make an appointment when the training match is full, you will definitely not be able to make an appointment! ”
“You really think you can’t get an appointment because your time is full? Why are you so naive? If you were on a really strong team, would they miss the chance to play a training match with you? It’s time! I obviously think you are too good, so I’m looking for excuses!”
“Just go to foreign live broadcast platforms and forums and you will understand. They are all using cnioinoob. People think you are too good.” It’s a waste of time for you to play in training games.”
“What about the other two clubs? They are all domestic teams. Why don’t you stay and practice together?”
"Sparring is a hammer. When our club lost the game, wasn't FV adding insult to injury? And helping you as a sparring partner?"
"Oh, if you ask me to say that this is all FV's own fault, the previous Weibo troubleshooting was not a fault. Isn't it quite fun? Almost all the teams participating in the World Championship were laughed at. PeopleOther clubs don’t say anything about it, but they don’t have any grudges in their hearts? Now I'm fine, I'm isolated, I can't even get an appointment for a training match! ”
“It’s hopeless. This year’s ioi World Finals was really exciting. The qualifying rounds were a mess, both teams were eliminated in the group stage, and the No. 1 seed didn’t have a training match. I just spend the whole day on Weibo, and I guess I will be beaten 3:0 by then, so that’s it, just watch the GPL. "
"The game hasn't even started yet, so there's no need to be so anxious to badmouth it, right? It is said that SUG is still sparring. ”
“It’s useless. The level gap between domestic and foreign countries is too big. Isn’t SUG also going to be beaten?” You don't even have the opportunity to play training matches with European and American teams, how can you study their tactics and playing styles? My understanding of the game has been greatly reduced, and this cannot be made up for by relying on operation! ”
The Internet is full of negative voices. Even the few players who support FV Club don’t have high hopes.
Furthermore, FV Club has been posting on Weibo Due to the overall work and the fact that Longyu Group hired some navy troops to lead the team, FV’s popularity among the public is not very good.
Now that the negative news of “no training games to play” has come out. , which made players who already had no confidence in the domestic team even worse.
In short, the Internet was filled with gloom and gloom.
Pei Qian couldn’t help but feel happy.
Yes!
Is this the so-called unity of the world?
Even foreign clubs are starting to give me a hand?
< p>Pei Qian did not ask Wu Yue if the news was true, because it was most likely true.Teams in the same division tend to team up when playing training matches. After all, they don’t want to lose themselves. The unique skills of the competition area are revealed to other competition areas.
Furthermore, FV is the only domestic team left in the quarterfinals. Those European and American teams team up to play training matches and isolate the FV club, which can objectively be greatly weakened. The strength of the FV team reduces the number of competitors for themselves.
For all reasons, foreign teams have very good motives for doing this.
Pei Qian is very happy and has already done so. Be prepared.
After the FV club is eliminated in the quarterfinals, he will call Wu Yue to express his condolences as soon as possible, telling everyone that they have tried their best, don’t be sad, and continue to play in Los Angeles until the World Championships. Come back after the finals!
......
At the same time, on the second floor of the Internet cafe in Los Angeles, the two teams FV and SUG were still playing hard. Daily training.
Wu Yue was furious when he saw the news on the Internet.
“Are these European and American teams sick? ”
“It’s okay if you don’t accept our training matches, why are you talking so loudly about it? ”
“Go crazy! Why do you think we care less about playing training matches with you? ”
FV ClubWith a dedicated data analysis team and two sparring teams, there is really no need to play training matches with European and American teams. Not only may you fail to practice, but your tactics may also be exposed.
But as the game was about to start, Wu Yue felt that it was not appropriate to have never played any training games, so he thought of inviting a random European and American team to play as a warm-up before the game. , to stabilize the player's mentality.
Unexpectedly, he went to several European and American clubs to make appointments for training matches, but was rejected by all of them!
As for the reason for being rejected, these clubs will certainly not state it clearly, and will only use the excuse that "the training matches are already fully booked."
But in fact everyone knows it.
There are more than ten hours of training in a day, how can the schedule be full for just training matches?
If it is a very important training match opponent, you will definitely be able to squeeze in time.
So, the response of these clubs is for two reasons: first, they feel that FV is too weak and the training matches are ineffective, and they are not willing to waste time; second, they deliberately form a group to isolate FV and affect FV In the training state, he easily killed an opponent.
Wu Yue didn't pay much attention to it at first. Anyway, if he didn't make an appointment, he would make an appointment. The FV club had no shortage of these training matches. If everyone didn't like each other, they would break up.
In the end, I don’t know which club was so loud-mouthed and told the media, and the news spread!
This made Wu Yue very angry.
"Tell the players to kill me in the quarter-finals, jump over the tower, jump into the spring, dance and highlight the flag all over again!"
"These European and American teams are not looking down on people. Let them feel what cruelty is!”

January 7, Saturday.
Pei Qian slept until noon before getting up, feeling refreshed.
I just finished a very critical closed-book exam last Friday, and Pei Qian felt good about himself. So I played games until late at night when I had fun, and today I slept until I woke up naturally.
Pei Qian still has the last two courses to review this weekend, but one is open book and the other is closed book, so he shouldn’t be as stressed as before.
Pei Qian plans to relax a little and go to the GPL on Saturday to watch the game, rest at home on the weekend, and then take some time to simply read a book.
This weekend is like a holiday for e-sports audiences.
This afternoon, the GPL Spring Split will officially begin.
The schedule of the GPL Spring Split is very full. After all, there are now 16 teams in the entire league, and they have to play BO3, so except for no games on Monday, there are games at other times.
Although there is no game on Monday, a review program will be arranged to briefly review last week’s game, review some key battles, play with the memes that appeared in the game, and chat with netizens Let's interact.
In terms of time, GPL can be said to be a high-intensity activity seven days a week, and the audience can watch it every day.
At the same time, the ioi World Finals has also entered the quarterfinals. There will be two BO5s every day on Saturdays and Sundays to directly determine the top four places.
Due to the time difference and schedule, the quarterfinals of the ioi World Finals are held at 5 a.m. the next day domestic time, which is more friendly to domestic audiences.
Watch the opening game of GPL on Saturday afternoon, watch the ioi quarter-finals on Sunday morning, continue watching GPL in the afternoon, and continue watching the ioi quarter-finals in the early morning of Monday...
It can be said that it is The schedule is full, it’s fun to watch it all at once.
Although there are not many ioi players in China, ioi is the world finals after all. Longyu Group has been sparing no effort to promote it recently. Coupled with a series of previous public opinion storms, the attention is still very high. of.
......
In the afternoon, Pei Qian wore a mask and came to the GPL Spring Split venue.
The preseason was held last month, and several new teams that have been formed have already appeared. Some problems that occurred during the game have been repaired and improved, and some emergencies that may occur have been fixed and improved. There are already plans in place.
Today’s opening match is scheduled for the H4 team and the SHG team. The former is the world champion, while the latter is a team formed by Shenhua.
Since the formation of the SHG team, it has attracted much attention. After all, Shenhua has very good results in football. Using football gameplay to play e-sports can be seen as a dimensionality reduction attack. Many people are looking forward to their performance.
In the previous preseason, SHG also played several times and performed well. After this period of preparation and running-in, the main lineup has been determined and is making rapid progress. Based on the situation in the training match, Zhang Yuan finally decided to let them start the opening game, which can be regarded as giving this team a better opportunity for exposure.
