Chapter 1066 World Invitational Tournament Lineup
This is a summer that belongs to Xingxin.
But at the same time, it will also be a summer that belongs to the whole of China.
In the Xingxin Club, Chen Guo looked out the window.
The huge advertisement has been erected for two days, and the Honor logo looks golden in the sun.
Although the professional circle has known about it for a long time, it has only been officially announced in the past two days. In just two days, it has become well-known on the streets and alleys, and it is even more talked about in the Honor circle.
Honor World Invitational.
Jointly initiated by the World Electronic Sports Association and Honor Game Company, the invitation was sent to 16 countries with Honor professional leagues. The upcoming global Honor Competition was called the World Cup of Honor as soon as the news was released. There is no doubt that this will be the top honor in the world of Honor.
The competition is scheduled to be held in Zurich, Switzerland from July 17 to August 6. A total of 16 countries including China, South Korea, Japan, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, England, Italy, France, Russia, Canada, the United States, and Australia are invited to participate. So far, all 16 countries have confirmed that they will participate in the competition and have selected players from their respective leagues to form national teams.
On the night of the finals, Xingxin celebrated wildly. The next day, they slept until they woke up naturally. Then in the afternoon, they all set off to report to the alliance headquarters with Samsara and the professional players who had come to watch the game.
Chen Guo did not go. She is the boss. She can't help the players with things like the World Invitational, so this time only the players went. She needs to stay in the club. Of course, she will also cheer for the players in front of the screen.
On the other hand, at this time, in the conference room of the alliance headquarters, the national team lineup has been established.
According to the rules of the World Invitational, each national team can have 15 regular players and 5 substitutes, a total of 20 players.
The 15 finalists of the national team are: Ye Xiu, Mu Qiu, Yu Wenzhou, Zhang Xinjie, Xiao Shiqin, Zhou Zekai, Wang Jiexi, Huang Shaotian, Sun Xiang, Tian Sen, Li Xuan, Zhang Jiale, Jiang Botao, Chu Yunxiu, and Fang Rui.
The five substitutes are Tang Hao, Yang Cong, Wu Yuce, Yuan Baiqing, and Su Mucheng.
These 20 players are the 20 players of the Chinese team in the first Glory World Invitational.
These 20 players are the lineup jointly discussed by the four tactical masters plus Mu Qiu and Wang Jiexi, with other captains and all-star players as the auxiliary.
This lineup was finally finalized after some controversy.
First of all, seven titled players and several tactical masters are naturally indispensable.
Ye Xiu, Mu Qiu, Han Wenqing, Wang Jiexi, Zhou Zekai, Sun Xiang, Huang Shaotian, seven titled gods.
Yu Wenzhou, Zhang Xinjie, Xiao Shiqin, these tactical masters were also the first to be determined.
These were the first ten main players to be confirmed, but Han Wenqing took the initiative to give up this spot, saying that he was old and only wanted to focus on Tyranny. Moreover, with his current state, he could not play a big role in the national team, and might even be dragged down by physical problems.
Although everyone tried to persuade him, Han Wenqing's temper was naturally unstoppable, so they could only respect his choice.
Among the nine players other than Han Wenqing, Sun Xiang, the battle mage, was naturally an attacker, Zhang Xinjie was an indispensable healer, Yu Wenzhou's warlock was a supporting profession, and although Huang Shaotian's swordsman was an attacker, Huang Shaotian's style was more inclined to assassination. He was a winner of the One-Hit Kill Award many times, so he was naturally an undisputed assassin.
As for the rest, Ye Xiu, Mu Qiu, Zhou Zekai, and Wang Jiexi were all players who could handle multiple positions such as attacking, supporting, and killing at the same time. Xiao Shiqin was more of a supporter but could also be a temporary all-rounder.
At first glance, these nine players can already meet the configuration of a mature team, but if you look closely, this team also has some problems.
First of all, although there are many players who can be attackers, there is only one real attacker in the main selection, Sun Xiang. The World Invitational lasts for more than half a month. It is really difficult for Sun Xiang to have a fixed person to attack. At least there must be a rotation.
And there is certainly more than one outstanding attacker in the league.
Not counting Han Wenqing who does not plan to go, Tyranny also has Song Qiying, Xiao Yu from Samsara, two exorcists from Royal Wind, Qiu Fei from Misty Rain, Tang Rou from Happy, Lu Hanwen from Blue Rain, Yu Feng from Hundred Flowers and Tang Hao from Howling, Xu Bin and Liu Xiaobie from Tiny Herb, Lin Ze from Thunder, Bai Shu from 301 and Gai Caijie from Void.
Among these people, Tang Rou, Xiao Yu, Qiu Fei and Sun Xiang are all battle mages, so they were eliminated first. Although it is easier to cooperate if the attackers are all battle mages, they are also more likely to be targeted by the opponent, so the second attacker cannot be of the same profession. In addition, the World Invitational stipulates that there can only be one group of the same profession among the fifteen starters. Mu Qiu's existence has been repeated with any gun system.
Then, Song Qiying and Lu Hanwen were also eliminated. They have potential and talent, but they are not experienced enough. The World Invitational is such a big event, and they can't be trusted to participate.
After that, Liu Xiaobie and Lin Ze were eliminated because they were of the same profession as Huang Shaotian.
Then only Yu Feng, Tang Hao, Xu Bin, Bai Shu, Gai Caijie and Huang Feng's two exorcists were left.
Among them, Xu Bin and Bai Shu, the two knights, are not actually attackers, but they are also important front-line professions. They can resist and fight, and they are also very important.
But in the end, among the four professions of Berserker, Rogue, Knight and Exorcist, the national team finally selected the Exorcist as the second attacker, and the one chosen among the three Exorcists was Tian Sen.
First of all, the Exorcist, like the Berserker, is heavily armored, second only to the Knight's plate armor. The national team needs this kind of profession with high defense. The Rogue is relatively worse, and the Exorcist, who is a clergy profession like the Knight, can play a greater role than the Knight.
Among the three Exorcists, Gai Caijie is inferior to the other two in both strength and role, and among the two exorcists of Huangfeng, Sweeping the Floor and Burning Incense is naturally stronger, and Tian Sen's strength after unsealing himself is close to the top all-star players, making him the only choice for the second attacker.
The two professional attackers rotated, and adding one more substitute would be enough. After excluding the same profession, between Yu Feng and Tang Hao, the national team finally selected Tang Hao as the substitute attacker, because the swordsman system already has Huang Shaotian, but Han Wenqing will not go, and the fighting system is short of people.
There is only one healer, Zhang Xinjie, but the World Invitational players and accounts are not bound, so Ye Xiu can take over when necessary.
It is really hard to find a second All-Star-level healer...
Yu Wenzhou's Warlock is one of the auxiliary professions, but in comparison, the Array Ghost is the most suitable auxiliary. Therefore, after the league's No. 1 Array Ghost Li Xuan became the second player to enter the national team after being banned and a tactical master.
The pressure on assassins is not as great as that of attackers and healers. Huang Shaotian is enough, and there are really limited places. Otherwise, Yang Cong and Ling Zifeng are both suitable.
In addition to attacking, healing, assistance, and assassination, due to the maturity of the team and the variability of the lineup, players in three positions are also needed: support, output, and mobility.
Among them, the mobile profession is a player who can take over any position except treatment at the critical moment of the game. Ye Xiu, Mu Qiu, Wang Jiexi, and Xiao Shiqin all meet this condition.
When it comes to support, the first people that come to mind are Zhang Jiale and Jiang Botao. The former, whether as one of the combination of Fanhua Xuejing in Baihua or later in Tyranny, can be called the best support player in the league, and the latter, before Xiao Yu joined, he was Zhou Zekai's most tacit deputy. (The ability to translate is the most important...)
As for the output profession, Zhou Zekai is definitely the best choice, but the magic gun is more physical output, and a spell output is needed.
Elemental mage, the most violent profession of the magic system, the first elemental mage Chu Yunxiu is naturally the first choice.
Finally, although Tang Hao joined the team, he was a substitute. A fighting profession is needed in the main players. Among the boxers responsible for attacking, attacking, support, roaming rogues, auxiliary and roaming Qigong masters, and Judo with control, the final choice is Qigong master, Fang Rui.
The 15 regular players were finalized. Tang Hao was already a substitute for attacking in the substitutes. The assassins and healers who were not rotated in the regulars each took one seat. Yang Cong was finally selected for the former. Although Ling Zifeng was not worse than Yang Cong and even slightly better, he was a little unfamiliar to others, and the relatively familiar Yang Cong was less likely to make coordination errors.
As for the healer, although the league could not come up with a second All-Star healer, it could come up with a player who could be both a priest and a guardian angel at the same time - Yuan Baiqing from the Weicao team.
The last two spots were given to the support, the other All-Star Ghost Swordsman, Wu Yuce, and the other one was Su Mucheng.
In fact, the people who originally decided the lineup were going to put Su Mucheng in the regulars, but that would not have enough spots. While hesitating, Su Mucheng took the initiative to propose that she would be a substitute, and Mu Qiu could be the gunner, after all, Mu Qiu could play a greater role than her. (End of this chapter)
