Commentary

"As a club manager, you need to be more steady."

Chen Mo looked at Yao Beiguo and said calmly, though he felt incredibly depressed inside.

He had come here to watch the team lose the match!

If they won the match in front of him, that would be three consecutive wins; with this result, they had already directly advanced.

They could play in the semi-finals tomorrow!

On the large screen in the lounge, BL Team was using the advantage from the treasure chest to continuously widen their lead.

At the commentary desk,

[Such terrifying discipline. Once they get an advantage, they don't give the opponent even a single chance. This is the first time I've seen this kind of playstyle.]

[There's no chance left. Congratulations to BL Team for winning the third match, securing their third victory of the day, and obtaining their ticket to the semi-finals in advance.]

In the official Livestream room.

[Such a cowardly playstyle. Not a single fight broke out in over 10 minutes; it's really boring to watch.]

[The purpose of esports is to win, not to fight. Only the winners have the right to speak.]

[As expected of a former champion player; my youth has returned.]

[Exactly, He Pengfei was my favorite back then. Now that he's returned to the arena and led the team to three consecutive wins, it's truly incredible.]

[Gaming doesn't just require hand speed and reaction time; it also requires brains. BL Team's playstyle is very smart. They have maximized their strengths and minimized their weaknesses. Knowing that their operation and reaction might be a bit lacking, they perfectly buried their flaws by avoiding fights in the early game.]

[What about those people who exposed BL Team for going out to play and not taking the competition seriously? What do you say about these three victories? If this counts as not taking the competition seriously, then what do the teams that lost the matches count as?]

[It's just relying on other teams making mistakes to win the match, what's there to brag about? Once they get into the semi-finals, those are all strong teams; there surely won't be that many mistakes.]

[That's right, I think BL Team will probably stop at the semi-finals.]

[Exactly, I've already figured out BL Team's playstyle. Isn't it just playing passively in the early game and waiting for the opponent to get reckless and make mistakes? I believe that by tonight, other teams will quickly be able to develop countermeasures.]

[…]

Inside the lounge,

He Pengfei, Lin Guangqing, and the others walked in with joyful expressions.

"Well done!"

Yao Beiguo and Tao Ze stepped forward and gave everyone a big hug.

Now that the three matches were over and the remaining matches were for other teams, there was no need for them to keep watching; they could just go back and watch the replays.

Furthermore, they had won three consecutive matches and had already locked in their spot in the semi-finals in advance.

Therefore, they didn't need to compete for a semi-final spot tomorrow morning; they just had to wait until 6 PM to participate directly in the semi-finals.

"Pack everything up, we're going back to the hotel to eat."

Yao Beiguo waved to greet everyone in the lounge and then walked over to Chen Mo.

"Mr. Chen, we can leave now."

"Hmm!"

Chen Mo nodded calmly and stood up to leave the lounge.

Back at the hotel,

After having a bite of dinner, he returned to his presidential suite, sat on the sofa, and his mind was full of questions.

Wasn't it said that because they were older, their operation and reaction speeds couldn't keep up, making it very difficult to win matches? Then what was the reason for them winning three matches in a row today?

It shouldn't be like this!

Chen Mo still didn't understand why things turned out this way. He immediately picked up his phone and entered the official event Livestream room. At this time, all the matches had already ended, but the Livestream room hadn't closed.

Several commentators were discussing today's matches and just happened to be talking about BL Team.

One commentator asked casually.

[What are your thoughts on the three matches BL Team won today? Do you think they have the potential to Leap?]

[I am very surprised by BL Team's performance today. They fully utilized the experience of veteran support players to the extreme. However, if they want to Leap, I think it's still somewhat difficult.]

[Why do you say that?]

[It's just that BL Team's playstyle is too monotonous. If you think about it carefully, for all three games, BL Team only used that one playstyle and didn't use any other tactics. And today's matches were the first time those teams encountered BL Team, so they had absolutely no preparation for this playstyle and no countermeasures.]

[But tomorrow will be different. The people from those clubs have probably already figured out BL Team's strategic playstyle today and will find ways to counter it.]

[So tomorrow, it will likely be very difficult for BL Team to use this method to win the match.]

[…]

Listening to the discussion of the commentators in the Livestream room,

Chen Mo gradually relaxed. He was quite in agreement with what those commentators said.

Tomorrow, BL Team should lose the match.

Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction, stood up, went into the bathroom to Shower, and rested.

…

Taida Hotel,

In another suite.

He Pengfei, Lin Guangqing, and the other three were sitting around a computer, which was playing the replays of the various teams' matches from today.

"Tomorrow our opponents are TTG and NRG. The strength of these two teams is a bit stronger than the teams I faced today, and both have veteran players, so we need to be extra careful in tomorrow's match.

Also, our playstyle from today's matches will definitely be analyzed thoroughly by those clubs tonight, and they will find suitable countermeasures.

So the pressure will be very high tomorrow, but the plan remains the same. However, this time, we shouldn't rely on the opponent making mistakes; we should focus our time on operations. Of course, if they do make mistakes, we still need to seize them immediately."

He Pengfei looked at the match replay on the computer and said with a very serious expression.

"Don't worry, Fei-ge, I know what to do. We have also analyzed the two teams, TTG and NRG. As long as we are cautious, there won't be any problems."

Lin Guangqing said with a smile, and the others also nodded confidently.

"Good, then let's continue to work hard. Everyone performed well today, and I hope we can keep it up tomorrow and make it to the finals."

He Pengfei also laughed.

…

The next day,

6 PM.

The official dragon fruit tournament officially began.

At the commentary desk.

The two commentators exchanged greetings and then immediately began to speak.

[After yesterday's matches and this morning's knockout rounds, we have selected the 6 teams that have entered the semi-finals. And today, we will select the top two teams to enter the finals.]

[Let's see, the first match today is BL Team vs. NRG Team.]

[Both teams are ready, let's turn our attention to the match.]
