Chapter 952: The Difference In Commentary Is The Difference Between The Realms Of The Companies
After the commentator finished warming up the venue, he pa.s.sed the mike to the professional player and let him start his own performance: a.n.a.lyzing FV Team’s BP.
The professional player on the official commentary platform was full of confidence. “FV Team has two sets of tactics recently. One is the global stream lineup with Wings of the Blade as the core, and the other is the team lineup with Chaos Misfortune as the core. These two heroes have been popular heroes since the World Compet.i.tion. They have been slightly weakened but they are still favored by many teams.”
“Let us take a look at the first hero that FV Team s.n.a.t.c.hed. We can basically confirm the lineup that they are going to choose for this compet.i.tion.”
“Er… the opponent banned the Wings of the Blade.”
“This hero is the core hero of the global style. Its function is relatively irreplaceable. Therefore, FV Team will most likely choose to fight for Chaos Misfortune.”
“Er… the other party banned Chaos Misfortune.”
“In that case…”
The professional gamer was stunned.
This opponent was not giving them face at all!
He had prepared for a long time. There was a lot to say about the lineup selection of the two teams and the tactics in the compet.i.tion. As long as the compet.i.tion started, he would be able to directly let the audience see something called the spoiler commentary.
In the end, both core heroes were banned?
If they had not been banned, FV Team would probably still choose these two tactics with the mentality of hiding tactics. However, the situation was completely messed up!
The commentator in charge of controlling the situation quickly helped him out seeing that the professional gamer was stunned. “It looks like the opponent has made ample preparations before the compet.i.tion and conducted a very deep study of FV Team! Then, how should FV Team deal with the current situation? I think they might have to come up with a new strategy.”
The live-stream was now cut to the game screen. There were no more graphics on the live-stream platform. The commentator used his elbow to nudge the professional players slightly, meaning that this little episode should not be affecting him and to continue commentating.
The professional player quickly reacted and calmed down.
He thought about it and realized that it made sense. FV Team had always been using these two sets of tactics back and forth. Even he could tell the playstyles. The opposing team’s coaches were not stupid and would definitely be able to tell.
However, he did not expect that the other party did not fight for himself, nor did he study the lineup to counter these two styles. Instead, he directly and roughly finished BAN. This still caught him off guard.
FV Team’s commonly used heroes might have been banned but they were not fl.u.s.tered at all. They directly locked down the noob hero Storm Swordsman who had won the MVP in the third round of the finals.
The professional players on the commentator platform perked up when they saw this.
Teacher, I know how to answer this question!
Wasn’t this the game that matched with Specter Blacksmith to directly eat all the jungle and mid-laner minions to suppress the economy?
Many professional players had studied this strategy after the world finals. Of course, there were many things to commentate on.
“FV chose to s.n.a.t.c.h the Storm Swordsman. They’re obviously planning to use the Specter Blacksmith to recreate the scene of the five kills in the global finals!”
However, before he could finish speaking, he saw that the opponent had already s.n.a.t.c.hed the Specter Blacksmith away.
The professional player opened his mouth slightly and fell into silence once again.
How was he going to explain this!
…
On the other side, on Bunny Tail’s live-stream platform.
The host in charge of the crowd was equally shocked when he saw the other party lock down the Specter Blacksmith.
“It looks like the other party is well-prepared for today’s battle. They have been targeting them from the BAN selection. They chose to directly s.n.a.t.c.h Specter Blacksmith to deal with the situation knowing the system of the Storm Swordsman and Specter Blacksmith.”
“That would probably be very bad news for FV Team because the Storm Swordsman is relatively weak in the jungle. Without the Specter Blacksmith to provide additional experience and economy, it might collapse along with the three lanes once it’s targeted by the other party. What do the two teachers think of this candidate?”
The two players of FV Team Two did not feel awkward. It was as if everything was within their expectations.
“Actually, the current situation is definitely within FV Team’s expectations.”
“This trick has already been used in international compet.i.tion. It’s impossible for others not to know. If they want to take it, the best way is to take it together with two heroes from the purple side. The latter two and three hands from the blue side. However, since FV Team s.n.a.t.c.hed it from the blue side, it means that they are not afraid that the other party will s.n.a.t.c.h the hero, Specter Blacksmith.”
“Actually, the countermeasure is very simple. Since the other party chose Specter Blacksmith, they can only use the bottom lane. The bottom lane would be naturally disadvantaged. Then, as long as FV Team obtains the right to line up and has a good view of the top and middle lanes, they can protect the jungle of the Storm Swordsman…”
The two of them talked about FV Team’s general response.
In the end, he added, “Of course, this playstyle can only be used when the opponent’s three lines are not as strong as you. What’s more, you have to accurately grasp the opponent’s open field route in order to successfully avoid the jungle collision in the early stages. Whether this playstyle can succeed or not depends on the vision of both sides in the early stages and the arrangements of the first-rate team…”
…
On the other hand, the commentators on the official platform could only guess the rough playstyles of both sides based on the following selection.
“I think FV Team might have found a replacement for Specter Blacksmith in this strategy, so they want to test the strength of the lineup this time.”
“It might also be because the latest version of the Storm Swordsman has slightly increased its attack power, so FV Team’s jungler, as the Storm Swordsman’s ultimate living weapon, thinks that it can already enter the professional arena without the Specter Blacksmith…”
The three commentators did not know FV Team’s true intentions and could only guess.
While the professional player was much more professional than these two commentators, that was only limited to what he knew.
Of course, he had many things to say about more mature tactics, including the vision and lineup in the early stages. All sorts of details were at his fingertips.
However, how should he explain a tactic that he did not understand?
He could only guess. His guess might be more professional than the other two commentators but he was still worlds apart from FV Team’s correct answer.
…
Zhao Xuming could not help but frown below the stage.
He could tell that the professional player in charge of commentating on stage was obviously not in the right state. While he was constantly giving his a.n.a.lysis, it seemed like a blind cat trying to catch a dead mouse. He was completely blinded.
Zhao Xuming quickly switched on Bunny Tail Live-Stream. He put on his earphones and listened intently.
The more he listened, the colder his heart became.
That was because the explanation on Bunny Tail Live-Stream was completely different from the official commentary. The situation on stage was completely developing according to the commentary on Bunny Tail Live-Stream!
They were already two completely different styles looking at the bullet screen comments on the two live-streams.
“Have you revealed your true colors?”
“I thought that the official platform’s understanding of the game had improved after the previous round, but I realized that it was because the previous questions were too simple…”
“The official commentary won’t be effective against FV Team’s high-end tactics this time.”
“It looks like there is a reason why this brother’s professional results are not good. This a.n.a.lysis is as fierce as a tiger, but the results are completely wrong. How can he not be beaten up?”
“Indeed, it’s far from that. Stop messing around. Let’s switch to Bunny Tail Live-Stream…”
In Bunny Tail’s live-stream, the bullet screen comments were all ‘professional’ and ‘awesome’. On the other hand, in the official live-stream, the bullet screen comments were ‘talking nonsense in all seriousness’ and ‘forcing it to make sense’…
The bullet screen comments of the two live-streams formed a sharp contrast.
The popularity of each live-stream platform was weak and there was no obvious decrease, but the rapidly increasing number of people in Bunny Tail’s live-stream already explained everything…
The number of people live-streaming in Bunny Tail Live-Stream was real. They would not lie.
Obviously, the official commentator’s amazing performance in the first match had attracted many viewers and increased their popularity. However, after the official commentator revealed his true colors, all the fake popularity ran away.
Everyone realized that the professionalism of the official commentary was completely Schrödinger’s cat. Sometimes it was very professional, but sometimes it was completely impossible.
This was another focal battle. Whether the commentator was professional or not would directly affect the viewing experience. Thus, many viewers naturally ran back to Bunny Tail live-stream.
Many people were also discussing on the forums other than on the live-stream platforms on both sides.
“It looks like FV Team is indeed a unique team. Any strategy can deceive other professional players.”
“The standard of the ICL league is still incomparable to the GPL league. Think about it, the commentator platform of Bunny Tail Live-Stream only casually found some staff from the GPL league to guest star in it. The commentator was directly chosen from FV Team Two. It’s equivalent to a temporary gra.s.sroots team. In the end, it completely destroyed the commentator team that the official platform of the ICL league had carefully prepared!”
“What’s the use of just looking at the data from the newly added real-time data function? We still need a professional commentator to explain this data.”
“Does any random employee from Tengda Corporation have such a high understanding of games?”
“How should I put it? Boss Pei really put his heart and soul into creating games. Boss Pei’s own understanding of the game is top-notch. It works from top to bottom. How can the understanding of the people below be bad?”
“Indeed, it feels like Tengda Corporation is filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. I’m afraid there are no noobs. Everyone’s understanding of the game is maxed out.”
“Long Yu Corporation might be a gaming company, but their main goal is not to develop games but to earn money. The difference in company realms determines the difference in understanding of the game. Is it alright to say that?”
“That’s true.”
“Forget it. I’ll just watch all game compet.i.tions on Bunny Tail Live-Stream in the future. Their understanding of the game is guaranteed. Other platforms really can’t do it.”
Zhao Xuming was speechless.
What the h.e.l.l were these!
Why were you guys talking about this instead of the compet.i.tion?
It was just a compet.i.tion. Was there a “difference in realms” between Long Yu Corporation and Tengda Corporation?
Wasn’t that too much conspiracy theory?
What’s more, what the h.e.l.l was “I’ll just watch all game compet.i.tions on Bunny Tail Live-Stream in the future”?
Zhao Xuming was very angry. He had been carefully prepared to make a bang in today’s critical battle to let the official commentators regain their lost face. He did not expect that he had completely miscalculated!
Not only did he lose all his popularity from the compet.i.tion, he had given away a lot for free!
