"FFW has been praised by fans as soon as it was established. As a veteran team in the league, it has many famous operators. The five starting players are all well-known figures after the popularity of the game "Rebirth". Two of them are professional anchors, and three are passers-by who have always been at the top of the rankings. Some people joked that although the name has that misunderstanding, no one has ever thought that FFW will be a 'waste' team."

Seeing that Yu Xuanyi was silent on the other side of the call, Lu Yao didn't speak and just watched the content of the documentary.

"It was almost no surprise that the championship trophy of the first league in the first quarter fell into the hands of five people who had attracted much attention. It is undeniable that the competition at that time was not only immature, but also slightly lacking in enjoyment. . A total of only nine teams participated, and the FFW players completed every game with a crushing attitude. At this time, our protagonist Ming Huo was looking up on the bench, happy for them as teammates, and maybe another Some throbbing took root here as well.”

At this moment, Lu Yao heard Yu Xuanyi sigh.

"What he said is wrong?" Lu Yao asked tentatively.

"...It's nothing, just keep listening."

I am watching and you are listening. Lu Yao instinctively retorted after being directed, but did not say anything out loud.

The narrative of the documentary continues, but the tone seems to have changed subtly, and the BGM has gradually become lower, which seems to indicate that some special turning points are about to occur.

"In the second quarter of the same year, the total number of participating teams increased from nine to sixteen, and preparations for the secondary league were also in full swing. There is no doubt that the number of viewers of the "Rebirth" league continues to rise, coveting this piece of electronic The number of opponents in the arena also continues to rise. With its excellent technology, FFW, as the defending champion, won the first game and is still moving forward in the regular season."

"But at the same time, the progress of others cannot be ignored. Team ARE, Team QS... and so on. The old teams we are familiar with now have also attracted new people and slowly emerged. Because of this, FFW's success in the second quarter Unfortunately, they lost to the ARE team in the finals, losing the chance to win consecutive championships by only one point.

"If anyone who pays attention to the history of the ARE team sees this, they will probably think of the grand occasion at that time. The new king came to the throne, and only one of the five members of the ARE team is well-known. The others are new players trained in the youth training, and they are rotated repeatedly. After many selections, he finally stood out and won the trophy. Although the newcomers were fast, no one had ever questioned the strength of FFW at that time because of their glorious performance despite losing in the finals. However, the speed of change in the e-sports arena was really Far beyond imagination, no one could have imagined at the time that FFW, which was at its peak, would decline so quickly."

Lu Yao had doubts for a long time and asked, "Is this thing off topic?"

Yu Xuanyi didn’t answer, but the narration in the documentary seemed to read the audience’s thoughts and changed the subject:

"I believe friends who follow the event have also heard that as an e-sports competition, although the nature of the game itself determines that the advantage created during the laning period can have a great impact, when this advantage is gradually shortened or even eliminated , the rest is a tactical game. However, the regrouped FFW failed to catch up with the pace of progress at this time. At the beginning, they lost to the previous champion ARE team when reproducing the finals game. Just like that, FFW's decline gradually expanded.

As for our protagonist - at this time, the Minghuo player is not wasting his time on the bench. The expansion of the Doomsday Rebirth e-sports league continues. The booming e-sports industry cannot be satisfied with the internal competition of a few teams with initial seats, but has started preparations for national competitions and invitations to secondary leagues. Among them, FFW, as a historically strong team with a complete bench, has also established a second team to participate in the lower level competition. Perhaps, the real legend actually begins here. But maybe continuing to talk about the difficulties faced by FFW can better express the changes brought about by the player Ming Huo. "

Lu Yao supported his face with his hands and continued to listen, but he heard Yu Xuanyi take over the words.

“The problem with FFW in the early days was very simple. Each of the five outstanding players had their own tempers and ideas. Although their game ideas and awareness were superior to others in the pub game, once they formed a team, everyone’s ideas were different. Mixed together, the final result is that there is no idea. Even if a fixed conductor is forcibly confirmed, others will question all the conductor's decisions, and the occasional mistakes will be infinitely amplified by the audience's requirements for FFW, so that there is no There is no way to ensure the completion of perfect command, let alone to train a complete team battle cooperation mechanism. When the method of crushing comes to nothing, on the contrary, the team with less baggage can let go and act together. It is precisely because of this a little……"

She stopped mid-sentence.

The narrator also happened to have a similar description.

"The pure operation that the FFW team has always relied on has become a barrier, and breaking new competition trends has become their goal. At the same time, good news is also coming from the secondary league. FFW changed its name to the second team formed in the secondary league. They have won many times and have a tacit understanding. Although there are still huge differences in the competition methods between the two levels, the potential of Minghuo players and their teams is already evident. Many people are looking forward to whether this team, which was once a substitute, can win the championship in the secondary league. After the upgrade, they reunited with the first team on the court, but the regulations promulgated by the league broke this expectation. Even if the FFW second team changed its name, it would still belong to the same e-sports club as FFW. Because of the regulations, this rising team finally stopped After winning the championship in the second division, the members were completely divided during the subsequent transfer period, leaving only Ming Huo to return to the team and become a substitute again."

"It's indeed a pity." Lu Yao also felt quite involved when he heard it, and couldn't help but sigh, "I always like this kind of tit-for-tat plot between former teammates. The more familiar I am, the more fun it is to fight. Everyone knows the basics."

Yu Xuanyi also knows that she likes to have fun.

"Don't worry, there are plots you like."

"real?"

"If you can make good use of search engines, you will see a magnificent 'ancient battlefield'."

This was something that Lu Yao could easily complete, so she was happy: "Then let me see it later. Don't tell me that you have a heavy fan filter and regard normal plots as excitement. Even you will disappoint me." of."

Knowing this level, Lu Yao was able to determine that Yu Xuanyi was still in this state.

"I am not strictly a fan now." Yu Xuanyi made another negative conclusion.

Lu Yao noticed that there was something in her words. But the content of the documentary is far from over. It is not just the so-called "ancient battlefield", but also an additional "summary of the battle situation". From the perspective of understanding, this part should be studied in depth for the time being.

"There is no doubt that FFW, which is facing a crisis, is at its lowest moment, with low points and even facing the danger of relegation. Most of the players who have entered the league for the first two years are actually at the end of their general e-sports career in terms of age. No one can Always at the top. With new players emerging one after another, their status declines, but new players continue to emerge. In this way, change is inevitable."

"FFW lost three out of three games in the quarterly match at the beginning of the spring, and finally decided to throw away all the baggage and completely rebuild the original team. So after two years, Minghuo once again entered the field as FFW's starting player. Behind him were a group of partners. A veteran with low morale after repeated defeats, his opponent was a team promoted to the league from a second-tier team at the time, the TAG team. All members of this team were rookies aged 18 or 19, and they had a record of victory. Debut with a bang.”

"It is worth noting that the starting jungler and mid laner of the TAG team are both Minghuo's former teammates who were poached from the FFW second team. In addition, the former ADC player of the FFW second team was present, and he was sitting on the bench. , in the previous games, he often rotated with the old TAG ADC players who played that day, and he is eyeing this position and is bound to win it."

"To put it simply, Minghuo finally returned to the league for the first game after going through thousands of sails. He faced all the teammates he had fought alongside after the reorganization of other teams, except for him and the support players who were acquired by the ARE team."
