A group of people walked to the meeting room of the Wandering Circus.

Wang Shun followed behind Bai Liu, and from time to time looked back worriedly at the small warehouse where Mu Ke was located that hadn't opened the door: "Mu Ke, are you really okay? It's hard to regain consciousness after being forced to fuse the memory."

"It's fine for now." Bai Liu replied lightly, "He will take care of it himself."

"I'll take over if I can't handle it well. Let's report on the latest incident first."

Reluctantly, Wang Shun was relieved, holding a lot of folders, he stepped forward and opened the door of the conference room for Bai Liu.

Bai Liu bowed his head slightly to express his gratitude politely.

Wang Shun put the document on the long table in the meeting room, and held the main seat for Bai Liu to sit down.

Liu Jiayi, Tang Erda, and Mu Sicheng sat on both sides of the long table. Wang Shun walked to the end of the long table and clicked on his own system panel, calling up a huge floating panel. Wang Shun was like playing a powerpoint Usually report recent major events to Bai Liu.

"First of all, let's emphasize the operating rules of the league."

"The league is divided into preseason, midseason, and playoffs."

"The preseason is the league we will join soon. The main teams participating are some newcomers with no foundation and some old teams that are not very strong. The main confrontation mechanism is random confrontation. The next game that is drawn is the enemy You can play against any team, if you win, you will be promoted, if you lose, you will be eliminated."

"The top two teams that advanced to the final in the preseason, that is, the champion and runner-up, can directly enter the postseason challenge, and except for these two teams, the rest of the preseason teams are all eliminated."

Wang Shun clicked on the system panel:

"The mid-season competition is a round-robin points competition system."

"The teams participating in the mid-season competition are the top 30 teams in the league last year, and the last two teams from last year's preseason competition, a total of 32 teams."

"There are a total of 496 games in the mid-season game. Each team has to play a game against 31 teams other than itself. Each game includes singles, doubles and team games."

"Each win a single match earns 1 point, wins a double match earns 3 points, and wins a team match earns 8 points."

"After the 496 games are over, the top 8 teams with the highest accumulated points among the 32 teams will enter the playoffs, and the two teams with the lowest accumulated points will be disqualified from participating in next year's mid-season competition, and their qualifications will be divided among The last two teams to win this year's preseason."

Wang Shun gave an example:

"For example, the first place in the preseason last year was Killer Sequence, so this year they don't have to start from the preseason, but can directly enter the mid-season, and the last two teams eliminated from the mid-season last year have no Not from the preseason."

Wang Shun's eyebrows became serious:

"The next step is the key work I will report today, and it is also the severe situation you will face after entering the preseason."

"The overall fighting quality and combat level of the preseason teams are not high, but there are two teams that you must be vigilant about. They are the two teams that were eliminated from the midseason competition last year."

"One of these two teams is called Russell Cemetery, and the other is called Fanatic Lamb."

Wang Shun clicked, and the ppt turned another page, and a gloomy mass cemetery logo appeared on it.

"The mass cemetery is the logo of Russell Cemetery. They ranked 12th the year before last, and they were ranked 8th in the mid-season last year. They entered the playoffs, and then they were drawn by spades in the Challenger League. In order to meet the challenge The first team in the tournament."

Wang Shun looked towards someone, and let out a breath slowly:

"I believe we can all guess the result of this challenge. Killer Sequence won, but Killer Sequence paid a heavy price for this victory. This is also the main reason why they poached God-against judges as tacticians this year. .”

"In this game against Russell Cemetery, the Killer Sequence lost a player and Spade was seriously injured and dying. It was a very tragic victory."

Mu Sicheng was dizzy when he heard that: "That's not right, Russell Cemetery entered the top eight last year and participated in the playoffs, so how can they not be eliminated from the mid-season?"

"Why did you fall to the preseason to play against us this year?"

Wang Shun looked at the mass cemetery logo on the panel with complicated eyes: "...that's a long story."

"The normal league process is like this. Eight high-scoring teams are selected in the mid-season to enter the playoffs. The champion and runner-up selected in the pre-season are randomly selected from the eight teams that enter the playoffs. Two of them will be drawn for a duel.”

"If the champion and runner-up in the preseason win, they can replace the two drawn teams and enter the playoffs. If the champion and runner-up lose, these eight teams will play in the playoffs normally."

"It is also called [Ten-to-eight] because of the challenge. Some players call it more broadly, and some call it [Sixteen-to-eight]."

"The two teams that lost in the Challenger League need to face off in the final battle to compete for the ninth and tenth places in the league."

"After losing to Killer Sequence, Russell Cemetery entered the 90th qualifying match, but in this qualifying match, the Russell Cemetery tactician lost his mentality, made a mistake, and was wiped out by the group."

There was silence.

Mu Sicheng's eyes couldn't help but glance towards Bai Liu.

...The tactician's influence on the entire team is really great.

"After being eliminated by the group, Russell Cemetery got the tenth ranking. It is reasonable to participate in the mid-season competition this year, but they gave up this ranking and the qualification to directly participate in the mid-season competition this year. Chose to start over from the preseason."

Wang Shunshen raised his hand and clicked on the panel again, and the introduction of the Russell Cemetery team appeared on the ppt.

"Russell Cemetery, the title circulated among the players is called [Shuangxiang Cannon Team], the reason why this title is because this team will directly abandon the singles and doubles matches when they play, and fire two empty cannons , only play team games."

"Because of the abandonment of singles and doubles matches and the lack of outstanding individual performance, this team has not cultivated star players." Wang Shun clicked on the panel and continued to introduce, "In other words, here in the Russell Cemetery, the players are basically It doesn't matter."

"That's the number of players they've died in the league over the years."

Looking at the numbers above, Mu Sicheng gasped: "Russell played in the mid-season game last year, and more than 80 players died?!"

"That's right." Wang Shun recounted calmly, "During the 31 games, Russell lost 82 players, with an average of 2.64 players per game. Down."

"Why did so many people die?!" Mu Sicheng was really shocked.

Bai Liu looked at the introduction of Russell Cemetery, and then said: "The core strategy of Russell Cemetery is to use skills reasonably based on the characteristics of other guilds, right?"

Wang Shun asked Bai Liu: "Yes, the Russell Cemetery prepares more than 500 reserve team members every year."

Bai Liu seemed to have a realization: "These team members, most of them are rookies, right?"

Wang Shun nodded: "Yes, most of these reserve team members have never participated in the league. Even in the team match against Killer Sequence, the players on the Russell Cemetery were basically pure rookies."

Mu Sicheng turned around and looked at Bai Liu, with question marks all over his head: "What does this mean? How do you know?"

"Large-scale rookie deaths, high-speed rotation, abandoning singles and pairs, not cultivating star players, and focusing on team competitions." Bai Liu looked at Mu Sicheng, "This is obviously a way of sacrificing players. The main tone of tactics."

Mu Sicheng became more and more confused: "What tactics?"

"Let's explain it this way." Bai Liu took a piece of paper and placed it between himself and Mu Sicheng, and wrote a keyword [skill] on it.

"The first player who clears the level in each batch of newcomers will get a skill, or more precisely, a skill status."

Bai Liu looked up at Mu Sicheng: "For example, mine is [Poor Tramp], yours is [Capuchin Thief], and Captain Tang's is [Withered Rose Hunter]."

"Our personal skills are derived from this identity, sometimes it is one skill, sometimes it is multiple skills."

"This identity is mainly based on the player's core desires. Different players have different desires, and their skill identities are also different, and the derived skills are also different in thousands of ways."

"But also because of this reason, the skills that are very high-quality, have great growth potential, and are suitable for use in the game do not account for the majority. Most of the skills generated by players are either not suitable for use in the game, or they are not available. ‌Growth potential, why the use is very limited or the way of use is strange."

"There are very few players who have all three, which also leads to the fact that once good skill players appear, they will be very strongly sought after by the Grand Guild."

Bai Liu looked at Mu Sicheng, with a half-smile, "For example, the king's guild's pursuit of you."

"Don't mention this." Mu Sicheng waved his hand speechlessly to interrupt Bai Liu's teasing, "But what does this have to do with such a large league casualty rate in Russell Cemetery?"

"It has something to do with it." Bai Liu smiled, "As a guild that is not too big, is not ranked high, has no star players, and is not very powerful, when it competes for rookie players with high-quality skills There is no competitive advantage, and the players that can be recruited are all less skilled players.”

"How to use these less skilled players to win the league?" Bai Liu asked slowly.

Mu Sicheng was startled.

"Russell Cemetery can't win in terms of [quality], so they put a lot of effort into [quantity]." Bai Liu hangs down the three words [targeted] on the paper.

Mu Sicheng rubbed the goosebumps on his arm, and stretched out his hand with five fingers in amazement: "But no matter how many reserve players they prepare, they can't do crowd tactics, there are only five players who can play! "

"The five rookies are still at the next level of skill, and they are still fighting against top guilds... I can now understand why the death rate in this guild league is high. It's strange that people can't die like this." Mu Sicheng asked in confusion. , "But this operation, no matter how you think about it, it's impossible to win, right?"

Wang Shun answered Mu Sicheng's question: "On the contrary, although the team match at Russell Cemetery has a high death rate, the winning rate is also very high."

After finishing speaking, Wang Shun lowered his head and clicked the panel, and a new page appeared on the ppt:

"From the data I got, I can see that in the mid-season last year, excluding the singles and doubles matches in which Russell Cemetery voluntarily forfeited, the winning rate of the 31 team matches they actually played was as high as 93.55%, and only lost Two games."

Wang Shun continued to point down: "In the two games lost by Russell Cemetery, one was against the King's Guild, and the tactician was Hearts, and the other was against the Deer Hunter, and the tactician was the judgment against God. Those who have now moved to the killer sequence."

Seeing the result, Mu Sicheng was stunned and said, "This winning percentage is too outrageous!"
