Chapter 281 The last battle before the training camp
In fact, for many players, Tianlu's championship is far less excited than winning the championship in the SLI series in Shanghai at that time, because the opponent that time was stronger than this time in terms of ranking and performance.
However, as long as Tianlu can win the championship, non-domestic and non-Asian events, it is enough to excite players.
【Tianlu wins another championship!】
[The Chinese team keeps the championship in the country!]
After Tianlu won the championship, many game-related forums and self-media all released news about this competition.
This is the feedback of e-sports to the game itself, especially for the CS game. Almost all Chinese game players would definitely play CS when they were young.
Or he had also played other fps games while growing up. Even if he had never played fps games at all, the face-to-face killing in CSGO games would be clear at a glance.
In this world, except for some teams, most professional games often determine the outcome by the final frontal firefight. The most attractive thing about the CSGO game is that during this short frontal firefight, the rapid reaction and accurate positioning of professional players, plus headshot kills such as OAP.
Therefore, after Tianlu achieved good results before, the popularity of CSGO in the country has also been fueled by agents behind these self-media.
They need to use CSGO to continue to open up a new base for themselves in China's e-sports territory, and the merchants naturally hope that the larger the base, the better.

After the Chongqing Invitational Tournament, the organizer did take the team that had not left yet to enjoy the local food in Chongqing, as he said before the game.
However, for foreigners, this kind of "food" may make them feel a little unacceptable. However, for those who like spicy food, this is definitely a paradise.
Especially Zhao Yiyang, there is a list of his favorite foods called "hot pot". Whether it is the old Beijing copper pot shabu pork or Chaoshan beef hotpot, Zhao Yiyang likes it in no different ways.
Of course, there are also Chongqing hotpot, which he also loves.
"It's so cool!"
Against the backdrop of red oil, the meat slices are mixed with a little chili, which looks more and more vivid under the light, making people's index fingers activate.
Whether it is duck blood or pig brain, Zhao Yiyang refused everyone. He didn't think he could see what he was like, but just tasted the taste. From childhood to adulthood, he ate everything except eggplant and never picked food. Even if it was eggplant, he liked to eat eggplant fried eggplant, but he couldn't accept the recipe for roasting eggplant.
Unlike Zhao Yiyang, DD from Guangdong is obviously unacceptable to the spicyness and numbness of Chongqing hot pot. Every time I pick up a slice of meat, I have to rinse it with water before I can eat it.
Zhao Yiyang was satisfied with this meal. After returning to the resort, he lay on the bed and fell asleep.

Tianlu did not get a rest when he returned to the Hangzhou base from Chongqing because just two days later, they ushered in another important Asian qualifier, which was the IEM Sydney qualifier.
For Tianlu, relying solely on the semi-finals of the IEM card troop is actually not enough to get such an IEM offline tour invitational quota, so they still need to start from the preliminary selection.
But according to Tianlu's current state, the Asian qualifiers are actually their favorite. Moreover, if they can achieve good enough results in the IEM Sydney competition in early May, they may be invited in subsequent events.
"We are in good shape now, so I don't want any accidents to happen in this kind of qualifier!"
Although Datou's words are serious, IEM Sydney has actually 16 places in total, and due to geographical reasons, it has given 3 places in the Asian competition area closer to Australia.
Because there are enough qualifying places, this time the IEM qualifiers did not adopt the final BO5 system, but BO1 throughout the whole process.
There are eight teams participating, namely China's two teams, Tianlu and Flash, and South Korea's two teams, MVP.PK and GOSU. Two Southeast Asian teams, BOOT-d[s] and sighteMongolz. The last team is the international column 5POWER jointly formed by China, Mongolia and Thai players.
The competition system is also very simple, which is to lose BO3. The organizer of the competition did not directly arrange the first round of confrontation according to the ranking, but instead conducted a round of draws. The final result is actually the difference between the direct arrangement according to the ranking.
Tianlu faced 5POWER in the first round. Although there was also a foreign player in Tianlu team, the team's performance rose rapidly after Zhao Yiyang joined, so B, who had not learned Chinese, began to try to communicate in Chinese, instead of using the "Tianlu language" that both sides might not understand as before.
For CSS, compared with those Moba games, CSS may require more communication. Because CSS reports are very frequent and extremely important for the accuracy of the reporting points.
So, this is why in lol and dota2, not to mention the situation in China, it basically exists in the form of international columns in Europe.
In CSGO, the competitiveness of the international column is always slightly worse than that of the native-speaking teams in the same country.
Tianlu's first round opponent 5POWER was a group of Asian players who were not good at English and communicated in English in a team. In addition, the strength of these players was not as good as the top in Asia, so in the confrontation with Tianlu, the speed of light lost.
Two 16 to 5, Tianlu felt that he didn't even sweat, and they won the game without even getting serious.
There was no upset in the overall result of the first round. BOOT won the Mongolian team, Flash defeated GOSU, and MVP.PK also won the Thailand team.
So according to the grouping, Tianlu's opponent in the second round was in a BOOT in the same area. After Tianlu learned about this grouping, he knew that they had been recommended to IEM Sydney quota.
Although this BOOT is also a common face in Asia, to be honest, they have basically never rushed out of Asia.
If you want to find a place stronger than the Chinese team in them, you may only find that their internet speed is faster than Tianlu.
However, internet speed is not a factor that can determine the outcome of the game, because even online games cannot allow the team to play at an unacceptable ping value.
