Chapter 587 - Upcoming Matches and Interim Coaching Positions (Part 3)
After running in with the master for a long time, no matter what level of people, they will grow, because the rhythm and operation of the great god are very powerful, and if you can't keep up, you will be killed in seconds.
After long-term training, people with a bit of basic knowledge will slowly keep up with the rhythm.
Yan Hong's state is poor and has declined, but this method can arouse all the abilities of a player in the short term, but there is also a problem, that is, when the training effect goes down and the training intensity goes down, Yan Hong's state will decline faster.
And Yan Hong's age itself began to drag, it is impossible to maintain such a training quality all the time, after this game, no longer carry out this kind of high-intensity training, it will be scrapped very quickly.
"Come on." Jiang Xun understood what Yan Hong meant.
He'd taken Yan Hong before, but in another game.
an hour.
Two hours.
Until half past eight, people entered the training room one after another, and Jiang Xun here defeated Yan Hong again and again, and every time Jiang Xun could name some of Yan Hong's small problems.
Yan Hong's combat experience is not lacking, but his operation mistakes are much more than before.
Gu Yaowen, the manager of the personnel department, has often been in the training room recently, but this time, he did not come to see the training status of the players in the training room, but brought Jiang Xun a contract.
Sparring contracts in e-sports are not beneficial, because sparring is not a normal job, just like boosting, although many people are doing it, it is not legal.
Gu Yaowen's method is a bit of stealing the beam and changing the pillar, the Zhengrong team kicked out their coach very early, and ushered in the affairs of Yan Hong as the captain and the coach.
So much so that there has been a lack of a head coach for the team on the side of Zhengrong.
The contract brought by Gu Yaowen is a contract for a temporary coach.
It means that during the period of the Intel Extreme Master Cup, Jiang Xun led the entire competition team as the head coach, calculated by the daily salary, and the daily salary is the price of the sparring partner that Gu Yaowen mentioned before.
Thereupon.
Jiang Xun became the acting head coach of the Zhengrong team in a daze.
Time flies.
The training time is getting shorter and shorter.
The closed training lasted for half a month, and the team was improving every day, but this progress was minimal, and they still couldn't return to their dominance in the last game.
This is a pity.
And the invitation letter from the organizer was also officially delivered.
The first game starts on November 1st.
The format is the fairest and most equitable double loser bracket.
There are a total of sixteen teams, each of the four teams is divided into a group, starting from the knockout round, and all the games in the knockout round are BO1, only one game is played, the winner of each round of the game enters the winner's group, the loser enters the loser's group, and the loser in the loser's group is eliminated if it loses again, and the loser in each round of the winner's group is relegated to the loser's group, and so on until the winner of the winner's group and the loser's group enter the final championship and runner-up.
The final is BO5, which means that all five maps are played, and the winner of the upper bracket has a direct lead of 1 point, and BO5 is a 1:0 start, as long as you win two more maps, you can get the championship.
This is because the upper bracket has not lost a single game, but the winner of the lower bracket has a chance to come back again, so to some extent, the winner of the upper bracket suffers a little, he wins all the way to the end, and if he loses the game, he can only take the runner-up, and the loser bracket loses and kills back, and finally can win the championship, so it is to let the upper bracket get 1 point of BO5.
The total prize money for this Intel Extreme Masters Cup is $1 million.
The champion will receive $300,000, the runner-up will receive $180,000, the third place will receive $120,000, the fourth place will receive $80,000, the fourth ~ eighth place will receive $40,000, and the remaining eight teams that did not enter the quarterfinals will receive a consolation prize of $20,000.
The knockout rounds will be played in Seattle, USA.
The quarterfinals headline went to Busan, South Korea.
The semi-finals are against Katowice, who came to Poland.
The final was Sydney, Australia.
There is no home field for China.
Because it is difficult to hold a competition in China, the organizer wants to get authorization in China, and it is difficult to get it without a certain amount of power and connections, and Intel IEM does not have this energy.
Unless the Chinese hold their own competition, they need a very powerful game company to organize the competition in China's territory.
Face the [Faith] first race that is getting closer.
Although it is not an official competition held by the [Faith] company itself, it also actively contributes to this game, because the [Faith] company has the right to broadcast and monitor the whole process of this game.
Sixteen teams are also gaining momentum.
For the reason that some teams abandon the competition, the organizer directly invites some new teams to come, but this direct invitation will generally only invite strong teams, and will not invite some teams to fill up the number to reduce the enjoyment and grade of the game.
The Chinese teams invited to participate are Zhengrong Team, Tianfu Team, and Bai Ze Team.
International Column Fazi, Ukrainian giant Lionking, Dutch rising star Ace, Chinese Taiwan Night Elves, Swedish strong team TeamOne, French GG team and Vitality team, Australian rebel team, Brazilian demolition commando team (SK-Gaming), Korean ghost team, European international column Secret team, international column Mousesports (Mousesports) team, Japanese Ninjas team.
The international column means that five members come from five different countries, and three members of the same nationality are generally considered to be members of that nationality.
A club like Fazi is based in Germany, but there is one German, one Belgian, one British, one Italian and one Bosnian player.
The five members are all of different nationalities, even if the club is a German club, the official can only give you an international column of the globe nationality icon.
These teams are all strong teams from various countries.
The Chinese team was able to occupy three seats, or because a Russian club did not come, and it happened that this club had a good relationship with Bai Ze Club, so it was proposed to give this place to Bai Ze Club.
After passing the official review, the team's place was successfully transferred to Bai Ze Club.
After all, Bai Ze's team is not bad, and it also has the combat power of the No. 3 seed position in China, and it is also ranked No. 1 in the world.
In this competition, the [Faith] company officially funded 26 commentators, all of whom were commentators of the [Final Knight] project last season, and they are available in every country, and these commentators are professionally trained.
The four Chinese commentators are Scarlet Yan, Xiaoyi, Zhengke, and Daomo.
One woman and three men.
At the same time, once the Intel Extreme Masters Cup match starts, players who watch the game on the main interface of the entire [Faith] online game will have a very low probability of dropping a mysterious prop - a player's signature gift box.
About 1,000 players will get this reward.
Open this gift box and randomly draw the ID signatures of the contestants in the game, and the quality is Normal, Shiny and Gold.
Ordinary signatures are not luminous when they are attached to their weapons and shields, shiny is slightly fluorescent, gold is golden, this launch, it is an official temporary trial to see how this kind of thing is accepted in the minds of the audience, and what is the response.
If it doesn't work well, this contestant's signature box will become the swan song of the [Faith] game.
