Saturday was match day. On Sunday, all sorts of discussions about Saturday's match could be seen on the Glory portal forums, but most of the discussions were from players. The reports from the major media outlets were only objective descriptions of the process, the results, or some direct reportage of some of the comments made during interviews. A truly professional commentator would probably need at least a day to digest the match. Esports Home, which was considered the most authoritative in the circle, would only begin their detailed report and commentary on Monday's issue of Esports Home.
On Monday, Chen Guo naturally couldn't wait to buy a copy of Esports Home, but when she looked at it, she was slightly disappointed. In Esports Home, the praise for Happy wasn't as overwhelming as it had been in the past.
Tang Rou's outstanding performance in the group arena was still praised, but Steamed Bun's performance in the individual competition and Mo Fan's forfeiture in the group arena weren't overlooked by the authoritative eSports Home. However, what made Chen Guo excited was that Esports Home gave Happy a very high evaluation of his performance in the team competition, especially his coordination in taking down Blossoming Chaos in one wave. Esports Home called it a textbook classic. This description couldn't help but make people think of Ye Xiu, the Glory Textbook. Sure enough, Ye Xiu, who had received relatively little attention in the public discussions, received praise that didn't lose to Tang Rou's. Even Fang Rui's transformation into a Qi Master received quite a bit of praise.
Most of the reports and tidbits related to the match were done by City H's reporter Chang Xian, but Esports Home also had quite a few special commentators. To be valued by this authoritative media outlet, they naturally weren't people who only knew how to talk big. In comparison, their commentary was very accurate and on point.
And Chen Guo's personal favorite was a segment on Esports Home, which was a brief review of each player in a hot match. This segment was usually reviewed by a few special commentators. Different commentators had different styles, laughing and cursing without restraint. It was quite popular.
From the TV broadcast of the second round, the anticipated hot matches were Thunderclap and Wind Howl, but the good thing about print media was that they could think with hindsight. As a result, when they published the news, the hot topics were Happy and Hundred Blossoms.
Chen Guo quickly flipped to the section that she liked. Sure enough, it was still the same format that she was familiar with.
In the individual competition, Ye Xiu versus Zeng Xinran.
Ye Xiu, 5 points. Zeng Xinran, -4 points.
Yes, this program was sometimes so careless. Usually, a score would range from 0 to 10, but here, he gave Zeng Xinran a negative 4. It was obvious how much he hated Zeng Xinran's performance. After that, the summary wrote: In Hundred Blossoms' rookie Zeng Xinran's first match, he told us one thing: he was here. Other than that, he might have also told Ye Xiu something else: It's okay to be a little rusty. There are some opponents that you can still win even if you chop off your hands. Considering that Zeng Xinran is still a rookie, let's be a little more lenient. Don't give him a negative 5, give him a negative 4! As for God Ye Xiu, without an expert to set him off, he won't be able to play any heroics. 5 points!
There was quite a lot of sarcasm, and there was even some ridicule for Ye Xiu's "a little rusty." Chen Guo didn't hold back and laughed out loud. She glanced at the commentator who gave the summary.
Sure enough, Zuo Chenrui, a Glory commentator that Chen Guo wasn't unfamiliar with, was known for his sharp and unkind style. His comments were always very subjective, and didn't match Esports Home's impartiality. And the summary section that clearly said "Special commentator does not represent the views of this newspaper" was probably the only place where Zuo Chenrui could appear in Esports Home. In the end, Zuo Chenrui, who gave all sorts of exaggerated comments, became the most popular special commentator in the program. His popularity was quite high.
As for Chen Guo, she quite liked this commentator's comments. Most importantly, they were often very funny.
After Ye Xiu and Zeng Xinran, it was Baozi and Zhang Wei's 1v1.
Bao Rongxing, 10 to 0. Zhang Wei, 5.
Just looking at Baozi's generous score made Chen Guo laugh out loud again.
The mysterious rookie Bao Rongxing. No one could tell what his thoughts were. Perhaps even he didn't know. In the first half of the match, he gave Zhang Wei a complete beating. In the second half of the match, he was inexplicably weak, proving that I was wrong about him. Zhang Wei, 5. Against a 10, he was crushed. Against a 0, he was crushed! Bao Rongxing's performance was 10 to 0, not 0 to 10. This was the key to his victory.
Evil! So evil!
Zuo Chenrui was like this. He didn't hold back when it came to evil people. The players that he insulted basically received his praise. For Hundred Blossoms, this was considered light. Players familiar with Zuo Chenrui all knew that he was a Blue Rain fan. Micrograss was evil, but when it came to Micrograss, it was truly unfathomable. When Esports Home wanted to do a summary of Micrograss matches, they definitely didn't dare ask him to do it.
After these two matches, it was Su Mucheng and Zou Yuan's third match.
Zou Yuan wanted to fight Su Mucheng head on, but he took the wrong path and was completely suppressed. Zou Yuan wanted to deal with Su Mucheng head on, but in the end, he was crushed. In short, Zou Yuan underestimated Su Mucheng's strength. In terms of skill, experience, and awareness, Su Mucheng wasn't below Zou Yuan. She was also 10000 times more beautiful than Zou Yuan. It was very logical for her to win. Su Mucheng's performance was 10, and her beauty was 10000. Zou Yuan's performance was 5, and his beauty … Forget it, I won't give a score. I'll give a bad review!
After that, it was the group arena.
Fang Rui gave a good review. It was a simple trick, but he was able to win again and again. It had to be said that even though this master of playing dirty had changed classes, his ability to dig holes was still very strong. However, it could be seen that because he had changed classes, his current methods of digging holes weren't rich enough. In the second half of the first match, he was forced to fight Zhou Guangyi head on. Fortunately, he had dug a deep enough hole, so he didn't fall into it. If the match ended like this, Fang Rui would get 6 points. However, that Qigong Blast in the following match against Yu Feng was worth 10 points. 10 + 6 divided by 2, that's 8 points.
Zhou Guangyi was basically played by Fang Rui. If Fang Rui hadn't changed classes and was still a Thief, he might have died even more miserably, or he might have won the match because of his understanding of Fang Rui. I'm leaning towards the former, so Zhou Guangyi got 2 points.
Yu Feng could have defeated Fang Rui with very little damage. However, that Qigong Blast proved that he still lost to Fang Rui in terms of calculation, 2 points. In the second match, he stood valiantly in the middle of the map, which was worth 5 points. In the end, he used that to instantly defeat his opponent, 5 points. In the third match, he faced a rookie head on, but was defeated. Yu Feng made the same mistake as Zou Yuan: underestimating his opponent. However, compared to Zou Yuan, as an All Star player, Yu Feng still had the qualifications to underestimate a rookie. Thanks to Yu Feng's underestimation, he gave us a wonderful 1v2, which was worth 2 points. 2 + 5 + 2 = 9 points? That's not right, right? Oh, we forgot that Yu Feng played a total of three matches, so we have to divide it by 3, 3 points. Speaking of which, if I didn't say that someone noticed that Yu Feng played a 1v2 even though he played three matches, wouldn't that be the case?
Mo Fan, there's nothing to say. This is probably the Happy rookie's response to Zeng Xinran. Zeng Xinran said that he was here, so Mo Fan said that he was here too. However, I have to give him 2 points, because without him, we wouldn't have been able to see that wonderful 1v2.
Zhu Xiaoping, as a Summoner who could 1v2 or 1v3, was defeated head on by a character. I don't think we can say that it's Wind Carving's fault. Zhu Xiaoping, 3 points.
Tang Rou, defeating Yu Feng, 10 points! Defeating Zhu Xiaoping, 10 points! Beauty, 10,000 points. No explanation for the praise.
Tang Rou's performance was the most dazzling, but when it came to Zuo Chenrui, he only had a few words. It proved that this guy was good at insulting others.
In the final team competition, Zuo Chenrui continued his subjective evaluation. Yu Feng, who had been sent away by focus fire, was once again insulted. It seemed that Blue Rain fan Zuo Chenrui had a lot of complaints about Yu Feng, who had abandoned Blue Rain.
"What's making you so happy?" When everyone came to the Internet Cafe to prepare for the new week's training, they saw Chen Guo trembling with joy.
Chen Guo pushed the newspaper to everyone. Everyone was familiar with Esports Home, and knew that there weren't many jokes in it. The most likely reason was that section.
Sure enough, when they looked at the author, everyone understood.
"Who did this guy insult this time?" Fang Rui rushed to pick up the newspaper and read it carefully.
The player who was insulted definitely wouldn't be happy, but for everyone else, it was quite fun to read Zuo Chenrui's things.
"Hehe, hehe, hehe …" Fang Rui picked up the newspaper and read Zuo Chenrui's brief evaluation. He quickly began to laugh foolishly.
"Yo, you're quite polite to me today," Fang Rui cried out in surprise when he saw the evaluation of the group arena. "Let's see what he says about Little Tang." As he said this, he skimmed down. Since this guy rarely praised others, players who had outstanding performances would be very curious as to how this guy would evaluate them.
"Tsk tsk, to be able to get Zuo Chenrui's praise without any explanation, Little Tang, you're quite promising," Fang Rui said after reading the evaluation of Tang Rou.
"Really?" Right now, Tang Rou would also read some of the Glory articles, but her main focus was on learning. She had a plan to gather the information she needed. Zuo Chenrui's non-objective and exaggerated evaluations were never in Tang Rou's class. She didn't know anything about this guy.
"Actually, he's always been quite polite to female players. Have you ever seen him badmouth any female player?" Ye Xiu said.
"This …" Fang Rui thought about it. He really hadn't. He skimmed through today's evaluation of Su Mucheng. Sure enough, he didn't see the style he was supposed to have.
"This guy actually has such a bottom line. I really didn't notice it," Fang Rui said.
"Even though it's a bit exaggerated, sometimes his evaluations are very accurate. Otherwise, with his irresponsible behavior, do you really think he was hired by Esports Home to be in charge of making jokes?" Ye Xiu said.
"You're right." Fang Rui nodded seriously. He read the newspaper: "That Qigong Blast in the duel with Yu Feng was worth 10 points. The comments really hit the nail on the head. "
