Chapter 236: Can’t Play An Early Comeback

Aijing opened another folder, and the label this time was ‘Dota player individual strength ranking’.

There were many people still playing Dota, and Aijing had obtained this precious information from a Dota analyst. Clicking on the document, a neat row of names on the left appeared. Clicking once into the document, she scrolled downward. In this full list of names, the one at the top was Fighting Hawk.

Fighting Hawk: Individual ability index: 9 points, team-fighting capability index: 9 points, tactical and leadership index: 9 points.

The data in Dota index lacked ‘skill and dexterity index’. In the beginning, Aijing had used the Dota model to record her LOL data, but she later on realized that with just these three categories, it was hard to truly reflect the strength of a player. Hence, she had learnt from a South Korean analyst and added on a category for ‘skill and dexterity index’.

In fact, the category of skill and dexterity index was no less important than the other three mentioned. It was a pity that for the list of Dota, there were no further updates on Fighting Hawk.

The total points was 30 points, the overall ability of Fighting Hawk was already 27 points.

In fact, players who had a score above 18 points were already considered to be first tier players, and 21 points would be top tier players that even overseas players would have heard of them.

With 24 points, you were already ridiculously strong and practically unbeatable within the country. You would also probably have left an impression on those foreign players too.

As for Luocheng who could reach 27 points, he was considered a freak of nature already. If you looked at the entire e-sports industry, there were not many players who could exceed 25 points.

In China, the strongest player was Hades and his LOL score came up to a total of 25 points. If Fighting Hawk’s stats of 27 points were that of LOL, then this guy would be the uncrowned king.

Aijing believed that if Fighting Hawk hadn’t given up on e-sports, his stats would definitely still be maintained at 25 points and above.

This would mean that there is a legend who would truly lead the chinese teams into defeating the foreign teams.

It was a pity that he gave up.

If you hadn’t touched e-sports for two years, how far would your skills have deteriorated?

When Aijing had watched Luocheng play Vayne that day, she gave him a score of 7 for his individual ability. Attaining 1 point in this was already at the level of a professional player, and 6 points above would mean you were on par with a first tier player. Having given 7 points to Luocheng, Aijing already felt that was incredible.

However, compared to the glory of his Dota days when he had 9 points and now, he had dropped by 2 points, it was very fatal. Aijing wanted desperately to know would he be able to return to 9 points if he ever came back into the professional scene?

There were already foreign players who had achieved 9 points, but there had yet to be one within their own country.

***

Wait, that wasn’t right. There should be someone with the individual ability index of 9 points.

Aijing suddenly remembered it and quickly entered an ID into the search bar—Shallow Dream.

Shallow Dream (Not a pro player): Individual ability index: 9 points, team-fighting capability index: 6+ points, tactical and leadership index: ? points, damage fluctuation index: ?.

Adding a ‘+’ to the back meant it was 6 and above 6 points. Team battle strength and tactical guidance index could only be collected from official matches. As Shallow Dream was not a professional player and had never played in any professional competitions, it was impossible to determine the other categories properly except for her individual ability which was 9 points.

Seeing the ID name Shallow Dream, Aijing felt helpless. When the name had appeared in the domestic server and determining that it was a Chinese, all eight teams from LPL had sent out invites to the player frantically in order to recruit the player into their teams.

Unfortunately, there were only a few who had managed to add the player as a friend. The most mysterious player who was also the strongest, had put shame to countless top professional players by being a non-professional player. Truth to be told, Aijing was very interested in this player, and she wondered what kind of person it was.

Similarly, Aijing was also very interested in Fighting Hawk. Fighting Hawk’s index majority was ‘?’, and if it was possible to accurately fill the index of a player that she was interested in it, it would be like completing a masterpiece of her work!

“It’s alright, now that he has formed a team, he will appear at the competitions. I should be able to complete his data with that.” Aijing said to herself and smiled as she looked at the name again.

Aijing was starting to anticipate Team Skycrown’s appearance in the preseason, since they could defeat Team 71’s second team, it was obvious that they weren’t weak. Give them a bit more time, and it was possible they would appear in the range of first tier teams.

“I’m not sure which teams would stand out in this year’s preseason, Team Stardust? Team LN Lenovo? Fudan’s first team? Team Paradise?” Aijing muttered as she got lost in her thoughts.

Two matches, one win and one loss.

“Team 71’s second team isn’t bad.” Wu Sen said as he stood up, taking off his headphones.

They had thought that they could win both games, but they didn’t think they would lose the first one. The first match was lost due to the level one teamfight, their Jungler and bottom lane were targeted constantly. Even though Da Luo played well, in the end, it wasn’t enough to save the game.

The second match had started normally, and from there, it was an easy victory. From the looks of the second match, Team Skycrown’s strength was definitely stronger than Team 71’s second team!

“Wu Sen, what’s your take on this?” Luocheng asked.

Wu Sen was once a first tier player, so Luocheng thought his insight would be helpful.

“Weak pressuring, won’t fight if there’s a disadvantage. Once their opponents have an advantage and engage in teamfights, they’ve basically lost.” Wu Sen replied.

The first teamfight held many uncertain factors, and even the strongest players would have times where they performed badly. Getting killed was not the scariest thing, it was getting snowballed that would be the worse.

What professional players were strong at was taking a small advantage and slowly expanding it. They would continuously nurture and expand that advantage and at the same time, not expose their flaws easily to the point that their opponents would be able to make a comeback.

“In the first match, there was no reason to lose. You can’t afford to lose in any of the elimination matches, and if we meet Team 71’s second team in the first three games with this kind of unfavorable start again, you have to recover from it.” Luocheng said, his face serious.

“A strong team needs to be able to play in any kind of situation. Knowing that you can’t play ‘an early comeback’, then you need to be aware of it. Don’t engage in a level one teamfight if you play against them in the elimination match, avoid this predicament. Remember this!” Luocheng said.

“Alright.”

Luocheng used to be their captain, and when he spoke, his words were always accepted by others with minimal objections.

“Okay, Lin Dong, you should write these statistics down. Team 71’s second team, average abilities of players is 4 points, team-fighting capability is 6 points, tactical and leadership is 1 point.” Luocheng said.
