Chapter Eighty-Three: Strategy
With a total of 25 floors, the Obelisk of the Roman Game Tactics Research Center is the second tallest building in Rome. Because it was necessary to make way for the skywalk, particularly tall buildings have been largely demolished in modern times, and buildings like the obelisk that were built along the side of the building's height limit are generally a bit famous.
Dietrich is a good tour guide, and the two of them said as they walked, and Yang Hai soon had a basic understanding of this unusual place.
The institute, called the Roman Tactical Research Center, was the brainchild of his old rival, the White Owl, who was still young and not yet a godfather. When Bai Xiao gave a speech at Harlem University, the dean of the Game Academy of Harlem University lamented to Bai Xiao that countless children in Italy are admitted to game academies every year, but not many can eventually become official professional gamers, plus some game-related industries, such as economic people or something, others are facing serious unemployment problems. In modern society, people are basically starving, but their enthusiasm for games has been wasted after so many years of hard work, and it is a pity that the game academy does not need so many professors, and half of the people who graduate from the game academy are engaged in industries that have nothing to do with games.
The White Owl then proposed the establishment of a tactical research center specializing in the study of the nature of games, as well as a game library, which was quickly passed by Kloto's party.
"Every city in Italy has its own first research center, but there are also a few small private tactical research centers." Dietrich said to Yang Hai.
"This ......" Yang Hai was very puzzled: "So is this organization directly funded by the Kloto Party?" βγ
"How so?" Dietrich shook her head, her waterfall-like hair flicked up, pleasing to the eye: "The obelisk was built for us by the Kloto party, and we have to pay a lot of money every year, but in August next year, the construction cost of the obelisk will be paid off, and this is our own."
'Oh?' Who are we? β
"It's all the researchers." Dietrich said as a matter of course: "Let's make money together, and count the shares according to the contribution, and the obelisk will belong to us next year~"
"Make money?" Yang Hai asked curiously, "How do you make money?" β
"The biggest source of revenue is the money that teams pay us to order tactics." Dietrich replied: "Once a team places an order with us, we will tailor a set of tactics for them according to the fee, and most teams in Italy do not have IEC, hehe. Dietrich said, with a look of disdain on her face: "We Cloto are not like those arrogant people in the WGA, any cat or dog dares to say that he is IEC. Can you believe that? There are a total of 25 super clubs in the WGA, and all of them have an IEC - all of them are in Italy, and no more than 10 people are lucky enough to get the IEC certificate issued by Cloto. As for the so-called IECs in the WGA, hmph, hmph - there are so many mediocre people in this world, seeing those people understands how to explain stupidity. β
Yang Hai was a little dumbfounded by the fact that there are no more than 10 recognized IECs in the whole of Italy? Judging from the level of performance in this country, those 10 people are probably all real tacticians, right? Not a lot of words
"The WGA is not without excellent IECs." Yang Hai couldn't help but retort.
"That's right." Dietrich nodded: "Mr. TIGER can be called a generation of grandmasters, but unfortunately, he actually retired, alas. β
"What about the other than TIGER?" Yang Hai didn't know what kind of psychology Lu Dao was out of and asked.
"Let me think about it...... Well, that old youkai is okay too. β
Old youkai? Yang Hai was stunned for a moment before he reacted, this was Lin Bo. Limbor has a great reputation in the Kloto Party, but that's all in the past. β¦,
"But the old monster's tactical level is nothing more than that." Dietrich's words made Yang Hai gasp for air. God, are you despising Lin Bo, who is Lin Bo? King Nuo is a legend, Lin Bo is a part of the legend, this beauty is too crazy, right? Not a lot of words
"Don't have that expression," Dietrich glanced at Yang Hai: "Lin Bo, that person, hum...... His tactical level is mediocre. The reason why Lin Bo is strong is because he is vicious and cunning, good at figuring out people's hearts, and his communication skills are also very clever, and he uses off-the-board tricks very accurately. As far as the game itself is concerned, Lin Bo's level is not super-first-class, not even first-class, at most a little above the second-rate. β
Yang Hai grinned, Uncle Lin, Uncle Lin, I don't know if you are sneezing now?
"But no matter what, Limbo is still qualified to be called IEC." Dietrich said: "1Q24, a fighting professional player from IEC, is not bad. It's smarter than Limber, but it's not as good as TIGER. β
"What about the other three?" Yang Hai asked without giving up.
"Hmm......," Dietrich muttered. SPAIN'S GONDO AND SERBIA'S LEBRON, ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE NOT YET MADE THEIR OFFICIAL DEBUT, THEIR TACTICAL LEVEL IS ALSO OKAY, AND THEY CAN BE REGARDED AS THIRD-RATE FIGURES AMONG THOSE WHO ARE QUALIFIED TO BE CALLED IEC. WE'VE ALSO DISCUSSED WHICH OF THE TWO OF THEM IS STRONGER, AND I THINK LEBRON IS STRONGER. The poor level of his teammates can't hide his talent, as long as you put your mind to it, you can see it. β
Yang Hai was really depressed this time, in fact, he asked this because he wanted to hear what this prestigious research institution in Italy had to say about himself, but after talking so much about IEC, Yang Hai didn't hear his name.
"I THINK POSEIDON IS OKAY TOO." Yang Hai said cheekily, he felt that he was blushing, but he couldn't help but say it.
DIETRICH BLINKED: "POSEIDON...... It's hard to say. β
ββ¦β¦ Oh. Yang Hai said depressedly.
He didn't go any further.
DIETRICH GROANED FOR A MOMENT AND SAID, "TO BE HONEST, POSEIDON...... I'm more inclined to his tactical level to be inadequate. β
Yang Hai choked on his own saliva and coughed, his facial muscles twitched, calmed down with a deep breath, and asked expressionlessly, "Is it?" βγ
"ALTHOUGH POSEIDON AND TIGER WERE TIED, HOWEVER, ...... This is an online game, and King Nuo has been abused by passers-by in the online game. Dietrich said disapprehantly: "As long as you are lucky in online games, nothing is impossible." IEC is an industry that requires experience and accumulation, POSEIDON ...... TO BE HONEST, POSEIDON'S COMBAT POWER IS ALREADY RIDICULOUSLY STRONG, ACCORDING TO THE WORDS OF YOU HUAXIA, EVEN IF HE STARTS PLAYING GAMES FROM HIS MOTHER'S WOMB, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO BE PROFICIENT IN BOTH ACTUAL COMBAT AND STRATEGY. It's impossible. β
After listening to Dietrich's words, the anger and embarrassment in Yang Hai's heart were alleviated. There is really no DEMO that can prove his superb level of strategy, and the competition with TIGER is in an online game, a big battle with TC, passers-by A, B and C are simply playing soy sauce, and they can't play tactics if they want to.
The beauty is praising herself, but she doesn't know that the person on the other side of the road is herself, this feeling...... It's really cool
Although the ...... felt a little shameless, Yang Hai still asked: "Do you think POSEIDON is very powerful?" β
"OF COURSE," DIDRICH'S EYES SPARKLED, "HE DOESN'T HAVE MANY DEMOS, BUT ...... DO YOU THINK POSEIDON IS WEAK? β
"Not really." Yang Hai raised his eyebrows, smiled and said, "I'm a fan of his game." β
Dietrich held out her hand to signal, and Yang was stunned for a moment and gave her a high-five.
"I'M ALSO A FAN OF POSEIDON." Dietrich shrugged, "My studio has arrived. β
It was very relaxing to chat with Dietrich, Yang Hai didn't notice the surroundings, and after Dietrich finished speaking, Yang Hai realized that he hadn't met anyone along the way. β¦,
The interior of the obelisk, he had imagined on the other side of the wall, but he really didn't expect it to be like this.
The path inside the entire tower spirals up against the wall like the texture of a screw, and at intervals there is a door to a room. Therefore, the obelisk is not layered, and this special staircase leaves a cylindrical space in the center of the obelisk, which runs from the first floor to the top of the tower.
But this "tower core" is not completely hollow, the cylindrical carbon steel glass wraps this "tower core", there are colorful lights flowing in the transparent glass, the light is like mercury with a very special texture, not circulating on the surface of the glass, but suspended in the air inside the glass, sometimes bright and dark, the color is changeable.
"What is this?" Yang Hai asked, pointing to these strange lights.
"It's a supercomputer." Dietrich said, with a hint of pride in her tone: "Although this giant light brain is not as good as the federal central processing unit, but in addition to the central processing unit, there is probably no other super light brain that can compare with him." β
Yang Hai was really surprised, this was actually a light brain.
Dietrich opened the door, and Yang Hai walked in.
This is a very large room, about 300 square meters, but it is a little narrow because of the large workbench in the center and the specimen cabinet connected by the wall.
There were seven or eight people working in the room, some were looking at the pictures on the optobrain, some were playing games, some were chatting, some were writing something on the workbench, and some were listening to the music and watching the video. After Dietrich came in, most of them looked up, nodded, and then went on doing their own thing, as if Yang Hai was a transparent person.
"Everyone is like this, just get used to it." Dietrich smiled, pointed to the chair next to the workbench, and said, "Sit down." Would you like something to drink? β
"A cup of lemon tea."
βOKγβ Dietrich clicked on the workbench a few times, and immediately a robot stepped out of the side door of the room and served two drinks.
"I've been doing research recently." Dietrich opened her personal light brain and connected it to the workbench, a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said, "I'm studying the tactical system of the E-TYPE club. β
βWHATοΌβ Yang Hai thought he had misheard: "What do you do when you study the WGA club?" And they won't pay you. β
"This is a hobby, and I'm not short of money" Dietrich glanced at Yang Hai: "There are many strategists in Italy who are studying the E-TYPE style of play, why are you so surprised?" β
"You...... What are you doing with E-TYPE? Yang Hai asked curiously.
"E-TYPE has always been the focus of strategists, and although the results of this club are very bad, they still have a very thoughtful style of play, which is much better than those clubs that are decent." Dietrich stretched: "For example, SK, the results are indeed okay, but a style of play has been maintained for nearly a hundred years, and there is also the Savage Club, which has honed all the tactics into so many sets and used them to deal with opponents with different characteristics, is this interesting?" βγ
Yang Hai couldn't help but retorted: "But this method can ensure a high winning rate." β
"Hmph, high win rate, high win rate." Dietrich said disdainfully, "The art of gaming has been trampled on." IT'S NO WONDER THAT TONY, AS ONE OF THE FEW ITALIANS TO GO TO THE WGA, RETURNED TO KLOTO AFTER THE MOST. β
ββ¦β¦ TONY'S RETURN TO KLOTO IS NOT BECAUSE OF THIS. Yang Hai frowned.
"I guess there's a reason for that." Dietrich opened a document and typed as she said, "The wonderful thing about team games is the dense tactics, the clash of ideas, and what those people in the WGA do is murder of art, and it is difficult to succeed." ββ¦,
"It's a no-brainer to debate this, so let's talk about E-TYPE." Yang Hai shook his head and changed the subject.
"THE TACTICS OF THE E-TYPE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN RELATIVELY INNOVATIVE." "In the days of CAROL, E-TYPE has always been centered on CAROL's No. 1 position. While slot 1 is traditionally the core, in modern games where the pace is getting faster and the boost tactics are fully formed, slot 1 is generally pseudo-core. However, at that time, E-TYPE was able to play games that were eye-catching. Then there is Prince William, Prince William's No. 4 core play is also very rare, although the win rate is less than 50, in terms of results, it is unqualified, but most of the strategists' forums believe that this style of play has great potential. β
"Dare to ask, what kind of results are considered qualified?" Yang Hai asked.
"More than 100 rounds, the overall win rate is more than 50. If the win rate is more than 60 when the opponent is tactically restrained, and the win rate is not less than 40 when the tactics are restrained by the opponent, it is considered a passing result. Dietrich explained.
Yang Hai was a little surprised: "Is there really such a statement?" I haven't heard of that. β
"Of course," Dietrich said proudly, "how can the strategists of the Italian gaming industry be in a class of their own, how can they compare to the WGA's deception?" Since it's in its own right, it's normal that you haven't heard of it. β
"What about the current E-TYPE?" Yang Hai asked seriously.
"It's more valuable to research now," Dietrich said excitedly, talking about her major. "The current E-TYPE members are very representative, and they can test many of the long-doubted assumptions in the strategy worldβ"
"What do you mean by assumptions?" Yang Hai said blankly.
"For example, Roddick hypothesizes, and strategist Roddick believes that in modern games, there is a way to play after the second position is completely disconnected from the third and fourth positions."
"Impossible." Yang Hai said categorically: "How can the second position be cut off for support? β
"What is impossible? Nothing is impossible in the game. Dietrich said disapprehantly: "Let me tell you, not everyone's strategy can be called hypothetical, only those strategies that have been repeatedly demonstrated, everyone agrees that the winning rate is more than 50, but because of the limited conditions, they cannot be proved by actual combat are called hypothesis." β
Yang Hai thought about it, but still felt incredible.
Dietrich continued, "The current members of E-TYPE are really representative. VIVA, a pure offensive type two, has outstanding abilities and explosive power. LIKE THE RODDICK ASSUMPTION YOU JUST TOLD YOU, VIVA CAN DO IT WELL - HE DOESN'T GET ALONG WITH PRINCE WILLIAM, AND E-TYPE DOESN'T HAVE A GOOD NO. 3 POSITION, ISN'T THIS JUST OUT OF TOUCH? If this strategy is successful, a new two-position tactic will emerge and Master Roddick's hypothesis will be proven. VIVA IS NOT ONLY ABLE TO PROVE RODDICK'S HYPOTHESIS, HE AND HIS TEAMMATES CAN PRODUCE A LOT OF NEW TACTICS, SUCH AS THE SHADOW TWO HYPOTHESIS, THAT IS, THE TEAM REMOVES THE FIRST POSITION, POSEIDON GOES TO PLAY SHADOW TWO, HIS TASK IS TO COVER VIVA'S ATTACK, ASSIST VIVA TO WEAKEN THE DEFENSE OF THE ATTACK TARGET, SWITCH POSITIONS WITH VIVA AT CRITICAL MOMENTS, AND GENERATE POINT EXPLOSIVE POWER AND PENETRATION ON THE BASIS OF SACRIFICING THE ACTIVITY ABILITY OF THE OTHER THREE TEAMMATES, AND SEIZE THE ADVANTAGE. THERE IS ALSO THE TACTICAL ASSUMPTION OF THE STABBING SHIELD, PRINCE WILLIM DOES NOT PLAY THE FOURTH POSITION, BUT CHANGES TO THE SECOND POSITION, VIVA PLAYS ONE AND A HALF POSITIONS, POSEIDON PLAYS NUMBER THREE, AND FORMS A HEDGEHOG FORMATION WITH PRINCE WILLIAM AS THE OFFENSIVE CORE, WHICH IS ALSO QUITE POWERFUL - I AM TALKING ABOUT JUST A FEW OF THEM, AND THERE ARE MANY ASSUMPTIONS, SUCH AS THE VIRTUAL CORE HYPOTHESIS, THE THREE-CORE HYPOTHESIS, THE DESPERATION ARRAY HYPOTHESIS, THESE ASSUMPTIONS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO FIND PRACTICAL EXAMPLES, CAN BE DEMONSTRATED IN E-TYPE. E-TYPE's lineup this year is just too good and luxurious, and if they can find a creative No.3, it will definitely be a strategist's dream team. β
Yang Hai froze: "I feel that they are still ...... likely to fight four guarantees and one protection"...,
"HMPH," DIETRICH SAID A LITTLE DEPRESSED, "THAT'S WHY I SAID THAT POSEIDON'S STRATEGY DOESN'T GO WELL." IF E-TYPE HAS SUCH A LUXURIOUS LINEUP THIS YEAR OR PLAYS FOUR GUARANTEES AND ONE GAME, THEN POSEIDON WILL DEFINITELY HAVE MUSCLES IN THE BRAIN. Alas, it's a pity that you're so good at it - hey, did you choke? Don't drink lemon tea so fast. β
Yang Hai forced himself to calm down, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Dietrich...... Can I take a look at those strategies you mentioned? βγ
"Okay, I'll help you find it." Dietrich picked out a file in a large pile of documents, marked with "E-TYPE policy", put it in the shared domain, and Yang Hai directly downloaded it from Skynet on the communicator.
"You look like a great guy too." Dietrich looked at Yang Hai, "Interested in these strategies?" βγ
Yang Hai nodded.
"Then come back tomorrow~" Dietrich said excitedly.
"Well, there's something tomorrow." Yang Hai said apologetically: "Leave each other's Tianxun numbers, right?" Quite a few words"
βOKγβ Dietrich didn't ask Yang Hai much what he was going to do.
Yang Hai played late in the game tactics research center before returning to the hotel, he saw an authentic "Italian strategist" in the research center, Dietrich showed him a lot of plans, some of her own, some of them were someone else's, these plans are very exciting, many of the plans are subverted common sense, I have to admire the sharpness and means of the Italian strategist.
After reading those strategies, Yang Hai suddenly had an impulse, just like Dietrich said, it would be too wasteful for E-TYPE to play all four guarantees and one next season.
He had some vague ideas in his heart, but those strategies were all brilliant and couldn't be digested for a while, so Yang Hai decided to wait until the end of the Masters, and he must study these strategies carefully before making plans for next season.
Anyway, I don't think about this yet, tomorrow is the audition, and it is right to calm down and deal with it. OTHERWISE, IF POSEIDON IS ELIMINATED IN THE DRAFT...... It would be a shame to get out,......,
