Chapter 773: Bumpy and bumpy
DYF's new captain, Kim Jun-so, became the first player in China to be captained by a foreign player. His strength is still unknown, but after taking office, the first thing he said in the face of the media was such ridicule.
If you dare to say such things in front of the media as a foreign professional player in the Chinese division, you will definitely be punished by the club. But Team DYF is different, it's a team with no club, no management, no coach, just a nominal owner. Such a team, with Kim Jun-so as the captain, represents almost all the right to speak.
This is unlike any team in the country that has a club.
"Sorry...... What did you just say? ”
It's good that this is not a live stream. Saying such things in an interview is enough to make a sensation in the entire Chinese e-sports circle. This is no longer just a matter of the small circle of PUBG, all esports fans throughout China, whether they know the game PUBG or not, are now completely focused on this Korean aid captain.
Obviously, the reporter didn't intend to report it like that. Therefore, he hopes that Kim Junsu will withdraw what he just said, so that at least things can be calmed down.
"I'm here to win the championship."
Chinese is still very lame, but the words are very clear, and it is clear that he has practiced this sentence for a long time.
Kim Jun-so did not change his words, and even emphasized the word "champion" in the end. When this interview was released, the Chinese e-sports circle was once again a sensation.
"Damn, can a Korean aid in the second division jump like this? Do you really think of yourself as the world's No. 1 player? It's so powerful, why don't you try to win the championship in the Korean PCL Champions League? ”
"I'm laughing to death, a player who has never even heard of PGI and PGL is embarrassed to jump like this in China, and his own country can't get along, so he comes to another place to find another way?"
"It's better to replace it with Liu Fei, anyway, Liu Fei can take DYF to win the second place in the City Championship and the first place in the second week, I can't see where this Korean aid is."
"It's really funny, I really think of myself as something terrible, but is it just an eighteenth-tier professional player who can't get along in South Korea? Really powerful, how come I've never heard of your name? ”
"Laughed to death. Let's wash and sleep, I don't know what the DYF team thinks, let such a person with a low eye be the captain. ”
"If you really have the strength, why don't you start from zero? As a result, I only dare to start playing from the first place, and I can do it too, hehe, I'll see your score in a week? ”
As soon as the interview came out, there was a lot of abuse. Whether you play PUBG in China, or don't play PUBG much, as long as you pay attention to the e-sports circle, as long as you have a little bit of national collective honor, you will have the same hatred at this moment. Each game that once had a sense of superiority on the chain of contempt, and each player who once regarded each other as the number one enemy, regardless of previous suspicions, was unanimous to the outside world.
But obviously, this level alone is nowhere near enough to threaten a professional player. Therefore, the popularity of the PDL Development League was hyped up in an instant, overshadowing various competitions in other countries in one fell swoop, and the real highlight of the next competition in the Chinese region - PCL Champions League, that is, the First Division.
Not only that, but even this interview traveled across the ocean and set off fierce reactions in various countries around the world. A lot of people are talking about having someone from another country captain captain another country's team, except, of course, South Korea.
In a country with a long history of esports and a strong player in esports, many gamers see it as a help for a professional player from South Korea to captain another country. Because it is true that in the history of esports for such a long time, although South Korea has not achieved dominance in all sports, at least South Korea has been in the top few sports in most of the sports, including PUBG, of course.
The country is like a country that was born for esports. But obviously, the only people who have access to the heights of esports are the talented professionals. And most of the Koreans who think it's normal for Kim Jun-so to be the captain of the DYF team are actually just ordinary players with low eyes.
In this way, this wave of hype of the DYF team was indeed successful. The attention of the PDL Development League has never been unstoppable, and before the game has even started and the live broadcast room is still a black screen, the heat has already passed through the live broadcast rooms of all other esports events, not to mention those streamers. Even some famous professional players in the First Division have stopped live streaming and are paying attention to this game.
Everyone wants to know whether Kim Jun-so is worthy of his madness.
"Hoo ......"
Week 3 matches, game 1.
The ten clubs in China have replaced with a foreign aid. Most of them are South Korean aid, but there are also foreign aid from Sweden, Ukraine, and other Europe and the Americas.
You know, it's just a minor league. The level of the PDL Development League is one notch lower than that of the PCL Champions League, and not only that, but the strength, trophy, level, and scale are far inferior to the PCL Champions League. Because the PCL Champions League represents the top level of domestic e-sports, and the secondary league, even if you know which teams are, most people don't know who is in a team.
And now, the PDL Development League has become the most watched competition in the world in eSports. Even according to statistics, the popularity of the PDL Development League has approached tens of millions, and the people who contribute to these numbers are not only PUBG players all over the world, but also followers of other e-sports projects in China, and even those who don't understand e-sports at all.
They put their bets on two teams, FYG and M249. Because LFY, QG, and other former second-division league powerhouses have been at the bottom of the list, and these two teams have also been replaced with new foreign players. M249 and FYG don't, two teams that were considered ineligible to stand on the second division stage two weeks ago, are now the hope of millions of people watching this game.
DYF and M249, the score gap itself is not big.
Sitting in the player's room, Lin Feng felt unprecedented tension.
"Is this what it's like to be noticed by so many people, I'm actually a little nervous."
Lin Feng, who had never cared much about popularity, felt an inexplicable pressure on his shoulders. Because he knew that if the M249 had not fulfilled the requirements of those who followed the game in the third week, the strict keyboard warriors would definitely not let them go.
This may be the real killer move of Team DYF. Even Lin Feng, who was under no pressure on the field on weekdays, actually felt his right hand tremble a little at this moment.
When a professional fighter fights solely for himself, he will be calm and will analyze and think about the optimal solution for each situation.
When a professional fights for himself, his teammates, and his team, there are many situations when he is willing to make sacrifices and not only care about his own personal gains.
But what would become of a professional when he was burdened with the hopes of so many people?
Victory over DYF, it's not a request, it's a request. Hundreds of thousands or even millions of e-sports players in China, regardless of whether they have played PUBG or not, but now, they have imposed a demand that is unreasonable in itself on Lin Feng.
"I have to say, the boss of DYF, the hype is really good." Lin Feng sneered. If today's game is lost, public opinion will completely overwhelm M249, and Lin Feng even can't imagine what players will spray the M249 team if this game is really lost.
"Hmm. Look at you, this time it's your turn to be in bad shape? The mouse laughed too. Last week, after only two or three hours of sleep before the race, the rats were almost sleepwalking all day. Fortunately, there were no fatal mistakes, and although they didn't play any key roles, at least they got mixed up.
But Lin Feng was different. He is the core of the M249 team, tactical decisions, movement routes, and the sealing of the M249 team that has been regarded as a feature, all of which need to be judged by Lin Feng. Mouse, Thor, and Lu Hao, all the three of them have to do is to carry out Lin Feng's command, and that is enough.
And once public opinion has an impact on Lin Feng, it may make Lin Feng timid, or it may make Lin Feng make mistakes in many places where he should not make mistakes, this is the real pressure that public opinion can bring. The rat had been experiencing it for a week, and now, he saw the shadow of himself a week ago in Lin Feng's body.
"Don't worry, I've got a lot of sleep. Until yesterday, I didn't think it was anything. Just ...... When I entered the arena, I looked at the packed arena and listened to the name shouted in the arena. I...... I'll admit I was a little panicked. ”
Lin Feng glanced at his hands. The left hand is placed on the keyboard, and the index finger, middle finger, and ring finger are placed on the three keys of F, E, and S respectively according to his usual habits. With the right hand, the index finger on the left button and the middle finger on the right button, it doesn't seem like there is even the slightest problem.
However, Lin Feng could feel that his hands were trembling a little, and the temperature around him seemed to have dropped, just like standing on land after just swimming, and from time to time there was a chill flowing in his body.
"This week, there's going to be a rainforest map, right?" Lin Feng turned his head sideways and said.
"Hmm. You...... You okay? ”
"It's fine." Lin Feng laughed.
"It's just that I haven't felt like this in a long time. Last time, it was when AW was in the past. ”
"Last time?" The mouse was stunned for a moment, and then slightly curled the corners of his mouth: "That time, won't you?" ”
"That's right."
"The process may be bumpy, but we must be the ones who stand in the end."
