The importance of a good support to a team was indeed extraordinary.
Because support was often not just about the individual's ability to play. Although a support player could only do his job well, know how to arrange his vision, protect the AD, and make the first move or counterattack in team battles, it was enough to contribute a lot to the team's combat effectiveness —
But more importantly, a support was often the core commander of a team.
Even in professional teams, the position of captain was more often held by support players.
The most typical example was still Seaso in the North American division.
Team.
Strictly speaking, the players in the top, middle, bottom, and jungler positions of the number one powerhouse team in North America could not be regarded as the top in terms of individual ability. If only looking at these four people, it was not enough to dominate the North American LCS division for so many years, let alone reach the top four or even the finals of the S League finals.
It was precisely because they had a support captain.
He was also the strongest support god in the current e-sports circle, Autum, the second of the Four Emperors.
。
Perfect individual ability.
Almost beyond perfect command ability.
It was precisely because of Autum.
The existence of Seaso truly united the team from top to bottom.
The team was united from top to bottom. Even if the team members weren't the best, they were still able to bring out their full potential. That was how Seaso became who he was today.
Team.
With or without Autum.
For the number one team in North America, it was almost a world of difference.
So —
In fact, Xia Ziyou's judgment was completely correct.
With the strength of the team that she was planning to build now, if Mu Qiu could be in charge of the support position, then they might really be able to compete for the six LSPL promotion spots in the regional qualifiers in a month and a half, not to mention competing for the LPL spots.
It sounded a little exaggerated.
But …
Don't forget.
If this "young master" of Le City Internet Cafe was really willing to go all out, the strength that he could exert —
Really, he would not be any weaker than the North American support god.
Unfortunately, for such an earnest invitation from Xia Ziyou, this young network manager did not seem to have the slightest interest.
Even …
For some self-evident reasons, his current attitude toward professional e-sports was only disgust and resistance.
…
The invitation failed.
Especially when the attitude of the invited person was so stiff and firm.
Then it seemed that there was no choice but to turn around and look for the next suitable target candidate in frustration.
However —
This kind of thing would probably be dealt with in this way if it happened to others, but when it happened to Miss Xia Ziyou … it was another situation.
At noon on the same day.
Mu Qiu, who had just finished a busy morning, was about to take a nap at the counter when he saw the transparent curtain of the internet cafe being opened. Xia Ziyou came back with several boys who were probably his classmates.
Coming to the counter, Miss Xia began to introduce with a face full of smiles,
"Sun Zheng, Zhou Yang, Wu Tian, Zhu Ming."
"He's a classmate of our eSports Association and also our team's Ubisuke Nakano."
Then, she turned around to introduce to her teammates from the esports club.
"This is Mu Qiu."
"He's the future boss of Le Cheng Internet Cafe — a top-notch support, and also our coach!"
Mu Qiu was stunned and pulled Xia Ziyou to his side.
"Hey, hey, what do you mean?"
"Didn't I say that I'm not interested in participating in this kind of thing?"
Xia Ziyou stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm not asking you to be a member of the team. I'm just asking you to be a coach and give us some advice … Please! It's just a small favor, I'll help — "
Looking at the pitiful begging look of the girl in front of him, Mu Qiu felt a headache.
"I'm just about to take a break …"
Xia Ziyou hugged Mu Qiu's arm and begged even more pitifully,
"Please, just once, okay?"
"Just a little help. Just a few words of advice will do."
"I promise I won't bother you to join the team after this!"
Saying this, she made a swearing gesture.
Mu Qiu looked at the girl in front of him and then at the boys who seemed to be very surprised and envious of Xia Ziyou's intimate action. He shook his head helplessly.
"Okay …"
"First of all, I'll just watch for a while. I still have to work in the afternoon."
"Okay!" Hearing Mu Qiu's reply, Xia Ziyou immediately beamed with joy. "Come on, get us a private room first!"
…
After getting a six-person private room, Xia Ziyou and the boys from the esports club found their seats and sat down. A new customer just entered the shop. Mu Qiu was at the counter helping the customer enter his ID information and turn on the computer, so he delayed for a while.
At this time, there were only five people in the private room, including Xia Ziyou.
The boys looked at each other. The jungler named Wu Tian couldn't help but speak first.
"Sister Xiaoyou, is this guy reliable?"
"Can he be our coach?"
Zhou Yang, another mid-laner next to him, also showed a look of agreement and echoed,
"Yeah, we're both at the diamond rank on average. If you're talking about finding a coach … I thought it would be more professional and formal."
"So he's just an Internet cafe manager … Maybe he's not as good as us."
Just now, they were just embarrassed in front of others. In fact, when they arrived at Le Cheng Internet Cafe and saw the young manager, a few members of the eSports Association had already started to have second thoughts.
After all, they were all Diamond-ranked players. They could be considered experts.
If they really formed a team to participate in the regional preliminaries, they were confident that they could survive the first few rounds.
When they heard Xia Ziyou mention that he had found a coach for them, they were a little curious and expectant. After all, Xia Ziyou had praised the "coach" so much that he was comparable to the coach of a professional team. If he really had that kind of level, they should have gained a lot by giving them some advice.
But in the end …
There was only one Internet cafe manager.
He didn't look special, was young, and didn't have the demeanor of a master. Instead, his attitude was very perfunctory and casual, leaving a bad first impression.
So at this moment, several members began to wonder if they had wasted their time coming here.
Xia Ziyou, however, was unhappy when she heard that.
"What, you don't believe me?"
Miss Xia had always been quite tough in school. At this moment, her words made Wu Tian, Zhou Yang, and the others quickly wave their hands.
"No, no, no, how can we!"
"Xiaoyou, we'll just do what you say, no objections!"
Although they said that, it was obvious that they were still not convinced by the "coach."
Xia Ziyou snorted.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you."
"Anyway, he's a real master at the professional level. If he had joined our team, we might have been able to make it to the LSPL!"
"But I'm telling you, when you listen to him later, be more serious. If it weren't for me, he might not even want to give you advice."
Several members couldn't help but look at each other.
This was … too unbelievable, wasn't it?
He was praising him to the heavens.
Xia Ziyou didn't continue to pay attention to these people. She turned to look at another tall boy beside her and raised her eyebrows.
"Sun Zheng, you too. Listen to me. Who knows, maybe I'll give you a few pointers and you'll become a king tier."
Sun Zheng was the president of her school's eSports Club and the only top laner in the team who had reached the Master rank. He had a good temper, so when he heard Xia Ziyou's instructions, he just nodded with a bitter smile.
"Okay, okay …"
"Then give it a try, if … he's really as amazing as you say."
