PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

Chapter 73 News of the Offline Competition
It wasn't until evening that Shen Yuling, who had disappeared for almost a whole day, reappeared, his slightly tired expression seemed to be a little worried about gains and losses.

After quietly watching everyone's training routine for a while, she clapped her hands, drew her attention to her, and said, "You all stop the game in your hands first, I have something to announce."

"Jiang Zinan's departure today touched me a bit. According to my original plan, I hoped to gather you all offline first, and then train hard for two to three months. After the tactical play and coordination are formed, I will push you to the arena. This can at least guarantee a stable result. However, the occurrence of this incident disrupted my steps, and also reminded me that I can’t wait for time. This step-by-step strategy is just my wishful thinking, but it is not suitable for the current situation.”

"Now is the time when PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is developing most rapidly. Many opportunities can be said to be gone forever. Two or three months is too long. No one can guarantee what will happen at that time, so we can't afford to wait. The plan of focusing on training is not going to work at all, we have to seize every opportunity to play, practice with games, and try to get attention."

"Our current situation is not optimistic. There are indeed many chicken-eating teams in China, but very few of them can stand out. The competitions on various platforms are basically those dozens of first-tier teams. The second-tier and third-tier teams are neither famous nor popular. Even the organizers don’t even know that there is a team like you, so there is no such thing as an invitational tournament, so if you want to participate, you must first be famous.”

Chen Ge agrees with this very much. Although domestic chicken eating competitions are in full swing, those teams will basically participate in the competitions, and then the champions of the competitions will take turns. It is difficult for the following small teams to have channels and opportunities for advancement. The only advantage of SGS may be that Shen Yuling is a former FPS female professional player, and then led a team of young ladies. These can only be said to be a gimmick, and others may not necessarily appreciate it.

Shen Yuling waited for a while to let everyone understand and digest, and then continued: "Today I went out to contact the competition. You may have guessed that the result was not ideal. There are many competitions in preparation. Maoya's Destiny Cup , the Penguin Elite Invitational Tournament, but all the teams that were invited to participate were strong teams. We wanted to step in, but we had no chance at all. As for the Hero Cup of a certain fish, it was barely a channel for small teams to rise, but there were [-] teams in line. A few, although I signed up, but it is still unknown when it will be our turn."

"No way, is it so difficult to play the game? I thought that as a professional player, you only need to care about how to get good results on the field. I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to participate in the game. So we have been squatting at home and playing practice games. Haven't you been doing useless work?" Jiang Ran had a dejected expression on his face.

"Opportunities are hard to come by, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. I've used some of my previous relationships to get some clues. The first is that there is a game exhibition held in the Demon City recently, and the organizer plans to organize an exhibition game of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on the spot. It is mainly for entertainment, and the prize money is not much. Because the scale is relatively small, the attraction is naturally small. It is estimated that apart from the local team in Shanghai, there will not be many other teams willing to travel long distances to participate. This is an opportunity. I have already signed up , if all goes well, we may go to play offline games within a week."

Shen Yuling paused and continued: "Although the event is not big, I hope that if we can participate, we will strive for a good result. There is another opportunity, the event is bigger, but the probability is relatively slim, about half In a month to a month, Bangkok, Thailand seems to be planning to hold a Southeast Asia Invitational Tournament. The invited teams have not yet been confirmed. In order to make the tournament look more international, the organizer will invite teams from China, Japan, and South Korea to participate. One of the organizers who has a say in the side and I have a good relationship, so we might have a little chance."

"Sister Yu Ling, this is already an international competition. Shouldn't the first target they invite be the top teams in China? How could we have a chance? It's not our turn." Zhou Yuqing was quite rational , which is not too optimistic.

Shen Yuling chuckled, and replied: "You don't understand that. South Korea once held an Asian Invitational Tournament. At that time, they were full of confidence. They invited the two top teams in China at that time. What happened? The first and second places in the competition were all taken by the Chinese team, and South Korea barely took the third place. This made the South Korean organizers very embarrassed, and the participating Korean teams were scolded by their domestic audience. If we hold any PSS Invitational Tournament, we will resolutely not invite powerful Chinese teams to participate. Instead, we will specifically select some well-known Chinese teams that are not too strong and cannot pose a threat to their championship. This reflects the international nature of the event. sex, and claiming the reputation bonus to themselves, so guess what Thailand will do."

"Oh——, you mean that Thailand will also be afraid that the invited team will be too strong and will overwhelm the host, so they deliberately don't invite strong teams?" Jiang Ran suddenly realized.

"It's very possible, and the level of e-sports in Thailand is much lower than that of South Korea. I'm afraid that any first-line team may threaten them if they go, so we have a chance, and my friend still has a lot of power to speak. , Of course, in addition to this, we have to work hard ourselves, if we can have an outstanding performance at the game exhibition, we should also be able to add some points."

"Domestic audiences still pay more attention to the results of foreign competitions. No matter how good the Chinese team fights, they see it as internal fighting. The real strength is the team that can go abroad and sweep foreign teams. If we can participate in the Bangkok Invitational and win the prize If you can achieve results, you can become a domestic first-tier team, and other competitions will naturally come to your door."

Shen Yuling analyzed, "However, if the grades are poor, you will be scolded bloody, so this is a double-edged sword. Of course, these are just my current expectations. I will continue to follow up on this aspect. You need What we do is to speed up the running-in of the team and improve our strength.”

With specific goals in place, the expressions on the faces of the girls were visibly cheered up, and they seemed to be full of energy, but Chen frowned a little. His current position is very embarrassing, and the team lacks one out of three. As a substitute, he should have On the top, but his current strength is not up or down, even he himself has no bottom, and he doesn't know how the coach will arrange it.

"The offline competition is one week later, I don't know how much my strength will be improved by then." Chen Ge was thinking.

In fact, Chen Yuling was the only one who was struggling. Shen Yuling had never considered him at all. Her plan had always been to play in person, but she couldn't blame Shen Yuling, after all, she had never heard of anyone who could play in a short period of time. For those who have grown from a game rookie to a professional player in just half a month, unless they are players who have transferred horizontally from FPS events, such as jumping from CS to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, they already have a good foundation, otherwise a pure Xiaobai, who has never even been exposed to shooting games before, how could he suddenly become a professional e-sports player.
