In the fifth row of the audience, Kamimiya Saka nodded slightly as she looked at the blue "victory" emblem of the Seven Ghosts team that appeared in the center of the big screen on the stage.
"Although they are at the bottom of the LSPL, they are still strong."
"Watching the game today will be rewarding."
Takashi Aoki, Ken Ueda, and Saya Ito also nodded subconsciously, showing a slight look of agreement on their faces.
"Ha! Miss is right, the performance of these two second-tier professional teams in China is quite good. "
"It's better than I thought it would be."
"Although they can't be compared with the teams in the Korean NLB league, I feel that the strength of each player is still very strong."
"The tactical execution is also good."
Originally, before the start of this game, several Japanese boys still had some contempt for these second-tier professional teams in China. Now that they had watched the whole game, although it was not to say that they immediately respected them, their attitude had changed.
But —
"The level of the top laners on both sides is about the same as Miyamoto."
Ken Ueda turned to look at Miyamoto Sugato and said flatteringly.
Takashi Aoki quickly followed up, "I think Miyamoto's awareness and sense of rhythm will be stronger than the top laners of these two teams."
Miyamoto Sugato nodded slightly with some reservation and smiled, "I have confidence in awareness, but the level of individual operation of the two top laners on the stage is still very admirable."
Although his words implied that he still had an advantage against these second-tier professional top laners in China, Miyamoto Sugato also did not deny the strength of the top laners of the Seven Ghosts and the BAT team in terms of individual operation.
Kamimiya Saka nodded and glanced at Miyamoto Sugato and several others.
"This is a characteristic of China's professional e-sports circle."
"There may be a lot of shortcomings in terms of tactical execution and team cooperation, but when it comes to individual operation strength, even in their LSPL A-League, the individual ability of each player is very outstanding."
"This is something that even the proud and powerful Koreans cannot easily deny."
"So this is also something that we need to learn."
Kamimiya Saka was extremely calm and objective in her analysis. Tian Jian Ueda, Kan Aoki, and the others all revealed expressions of humility as they earnestly accepted her teachings.
The group of people who came to China from Japan were divided into two groups.
One of the teams was led by someone from the club, and they had already started to contact a few China LPL clubs in private. The other team was led by Kamiya Saka.
Joya Ito, Hiroshi Aoki, and Ken Ueda were much weaker than the members of the other team that came to China this time. But for Kamiya Saka and the club behind her, they were equally important parts of the club's blueprint for the future team.
Therefore, Kamimiya Saka hoped that through her leadership and hard work, her team members would be able to learn and improve in China.
…
"Although that's what I said —"
Out of the blue, Ueda Ken suddenly said,
"The individual strength of these China professional players is not bad, but it's still useless in a world-class professional esports competition, right?"
"I also heard that many Chinese players can reach the King's level in the China server, but if they go to other Korean or European servers, they can only reach Diamond or Master —"
Joya Ito also nodded in agreement.
"In places like the Korean and American servers, even if it's a random matchup, it's more about tactics and cooperation. Those China experts only know how to improve their individual strength. In random matchups, they only know how to blindly attack a player that they can carry, and in the end, they suffer all kinds of losses."
"In international competitions, like the S Series League, those Chinese teams went to the finals. In the previous few seasons, they were still bragging that their mid laners and junglers were the best in the world. In the end, when they fought, they were suppressed to the point where they couldn't win at all."
"That's right." Kan Aoki's tone was a little sarcastic. "It's fine if they rely on their individual strength to play random matchups, but if they really encounter those who are equally strong, or if they encounter a team with excellent tactics and cooperation, what use is this individual heroism of China?"
"That's right."
"That's why the China players have never won a world championship in the past few seasons."
"I don't think we've even seen them enter the finals of the S League."
The more they talked, the more enthusiastic they became. Joya Ito also found an opportunity to sneer.
"That's right."
"That's why individual heroism has no meaning in the Pro League. That guy called Lin Feng from last time was indeed quite strong, but if he were to encounter a true expert or a professional team, how could he possibly win a 1v5?"
"He must have been targeted and defeated long ago."
There was a hint of resentment in her tone.
Indeed, for the Japanese boys, it was still a hidden pain in their hearts that they were nearly defeated in a 1v5 by someone's adc, Policewoman, in the eSports Club qualifier.
Kamiya Saka frowned slightly and glanced at the boys in front of her.
"A loss is a loss."
"You have to admit what you have to admit. It's not that we can't afford to lose."
Although Joya Ito, Aoki Kan, and the others were still unwilling to accept such a lesson, they still nodded and accepted the girl's admonition.
Kamiya Saka's gaze returned to the big screen on the stage. At this time, the second match between the Seven Demons team and the BAT team was about to begin. The girl's eyes flickered slightly.
In fact, she did not disagree with what Joya Ito had just said.
To be more precise, although she acknowledged the defeat of the eSports Association and acknowledged a certain someone's strength, she didn't think that a certain someone's 1v5 comeback had much redeeming qualities.
Yes, Lin Kun's adc is very strong.
But so what?
Kamimiya Saka's eyes were calm and indifferent. Their previous loss was due to the fact that their team's lineup was not strong enough, and she had been too impulsive in the beginning. But if she had used her strongest jungler, and directly targeted the bottom lane from the start ….
Even that boy named Lin Feng would not have been able to easily develop.
In an eSports game like League of Legends, team tactics and teamwork were always higher than individual heroism. This was a principle that Kamiya Saka highly respected and recognized.
Therefore, Kamiya Saka's view of the professional players in China's eSports circle was the same as her view of Lin Feng:
Your individual strength is strong enough.
However, individual strength is not enough to bring you the corresponding victory.
Of course, it does not mean that there are no people who can rely purely on their individual strength to determine the victory of a professional game. But this requirement is even higher. Even the world's Seven Kings, who have already stood at the top of the pyramid, do not have the confidence to say this.
The only people who can do this are the Yonkō (Four Emperors) who stand at the top of the pyramid.
But does China's eSports circle have such people?
At present, the strongest professional players in China that can be officially recognized are "Morning Star" and "Round". They are only at the level of the Seven Kings, not the level of the Yonkō (Four Emperors).
Suddenly, Kamiya Saka's eyes flashed.
But if …
Is it that Lin?
