Chapter 84

At this moment, Suan Suan's tears finally fell.

He used to be the youngest brother in the team and didn't have to worry about anything, but now, everyone in the team has left and he is the only one left.

He became the only spark of the team, and the position of captain fell to him.

The child in the past has now become the captain of a team that needs to carry the banner.

You En patted the other person's shoulder gently. Perhaps this is the true meaning of "veterans never die, and the torch is passed on"!

"Don't worry, your teammates are all very capable people, and they still have a chance to win the championship," You En consoled them, "Besides, I will accompany you as your assistant coach."

Suan Suan wiped away his tears, and his expression became extremely serious: "Who is the teammate?"

In an instant, he seemed to have many invisible burdens on his shoulders.

You En smiled knowingly. The child who stood behind him back then has finally grown up.

"The people on the side are all people you know, Dark Moon and Shining Star."

Suan Suan was stunned. How could it be them?

These two aren't even professional players, why would the team choose them?

"We've fought with them before, what do you think of their strength?" You En asked.

"It's pretty impressive," he said objectively, "but they're both not young anymore, are they? Yaoxing has been a game anchor for a few years, and Anyue seems to be a college student who is about to graduate. Compared with young players who debuted at the age of 18, they are not superior in many aspects."

After all, e-sports is a young person’s game, and even the best players will see their form decline as they get older.

"Is this really the person chosen by the team?" Suan Suan was still bothered by this question.

Even if we can't find outstanding professional players, we shouldn't use off-site personnel, right?

This plan is too risky!

"I introduced them to the team," Youen answered.

"You?" Suan Suan was puzzled.

You En nodded and explained to the other party: "Yao Xing has good qualifications. He had thought about becoming a professional before, but unfortunately he never planned to become a professional after being deceived. I always felt it was a pity. His gaming level is obviously comparable to that of professional players. He should not be a streamer."

You En paused, and then talked about another protagonist, "As for Dark Moon...you saw his strength with your own eyes during the exhibition match that day. I have always had high hopes for him, and he is Rui En's younger brother..."

There was a moment of silence, "What about the shooting assistant?"

"Dark Moon recommended two people to me, Archer Paranoid and Support Model Worker. I've looked at their game data and feel they're pretty good. I'll wait for their tryout tomorrow to see their true strength. If that doesn't work out, I can find professional players or promote members of the second team."

Suan Suan nodded. Their team was already on the brink of danger. It was still a mystery what kind of results this "new team" with four players replaced could achieve in the new season.

Let’s take it one step at a time!

…

The next morning, Suan Suan arrived at the training room early, even earlier than You En, the team manager "Wu Yanhao" and the coach "Cao Lin".

In just one night, he transformed from an ordinary team member to the captain. There was less carefreeness and more maturity in Suan Suan's eyes, and the whole person seemed to be reborn.

He sat in front of the computer, glancing at the door from time to time.

The second people to arrive at the training room were En and Cao Lin. On the way there, they briefly discussed the daily work and responsibilities of a coach.

"Calculate? How come you came so early?" Cao Lin was very surprised.

The other party is obviously a talent who likes to scout out places, but how could he arrive early?

"Suansuan is gradually developing a sense of responsibility as the captain," You En raised the corner of his mouth, feeling quite proud that his son has grown up.

The team manager was the last to arrive.

Wu Yanhao looked visibly haggard. He barely went to bed at around 3 o'clock last night and was not in the mood to eat dinner.

"Good morning, everyone." Wu Yanhao raised his head. The dark circles under his eyes made him feel like a refugee escaping overnight.

"Manager, did you steal last night?" Cao Lin held his heart tightly, he was almost scared to death.

"No way. The team's current situation makes me extremely anxious. How can I have a good sleep?" Wu Yanhao's head was almost on fire.

This must be the biggest challenge in his career!

If you do a good job, you will keep working; if you do a bad job, you will be fired.

Suan Suan looked up at him and said to him in a comforting voice: "Manager, it's useless to worry blindly. The more anxious the situation is, the more we need to stay calm."

"Oh?" Wu Yanhao showed an expression of disbelief.

"When you've been away for three days, you should look at each other with new eyes. I never thought I'd hear such words from Suan Suan."

You En glanced at his phone for a few seconds and said to everyone, "They are almost here."

The few people who were originally a little relaxed immediately sat up straight, showing a calm and serious mental outlook.

The first people to push the door open were Qiao Ruiyi and Yuan Xingyou. They walked in one after the other, and the atmosphere between them was subtle and natural.

Qiao Ruiyi had a smile on his lips, and Yuan Xingyou followed him closely, but his eyes were always on Qiao Ruiyi's back.

"Brother Youen, Suansuan, good morning." Qiao Ruiyi greeted the person he knew politely.

Yuan Xingyou summarized it in a general way: "Good morning, everyone."

"Good morning," You En introduced the two parties to each other as a middleman.

Then he introduced Suan Suan, who had a new identity, "Suan Suan will be your captain from now on, should you call him...?"

"Count the team!" the two new team members shouted in unison.

After hearing this, Cao Lin couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh, "The name of the Suan Team is a bit strange, it seems to be an abbreviation of 'Forget it, it's all right'."

Calculate: "..."

The captain's authority is gone.

Wu Yanhao comforted him, "It's okay, it's okay. You'll get used to it if you keep calling him. For example, You En's You Dui. At the beginning, You En himself said that he was not a 'oil pile'."

You En: “…”

Thank you so much for using me as an example.

"By the way, when will the other two players on trial arrive?" Cao Lin stopped laughing and got back to the point.

"They said they'll be here soon," Qiao Ruiyi was still in contact with the two people.

You En suggested, "In that case, why don't you briefly introduce their names, personalities, and the heroes they often play?"

"Okay, let me introduce Xu Helian first, also known as the model worker," Yuan Xingyou, as the captain of the opposing team, has a deeper understanding of Xu Helian.

Xu Helian is a man who pursues individuality...a scheming man with dyed silver hair and wearing earrings.

He plays the game in an aggressive way and is keen on playing support heroes such as those that initiate team fights.

Qiao Ruiyi took over the conversation, "Yi Xiaolan, whose game ID is paranoid, is..."

Yi Xiaolan is a shooter of few words. He has very fair skin, which makes his hair and eyes look unusually black.

Yi Xiaolan's shooter is more inclined to development, resisting pressure and developing in the early stage, and setting the pace in team battles in the later stage.

Not long after they finished talking, the door of the training room was pushed open again.

"Good morning, everyone." Silver-haired Xu Helian greeted with a smile, his tone light, as if he was just attending an ordinary party.

"Good morning, Xu and Helian?" Suan Suan was the first to greet each other.

Xu Helian nodded, but before he could respond, a man walked in right after him.

The fair-skinned boy wore a black T-shirt and his eyes were as black as ink.

He had a cold expression as his eyes swept across the training room, finally landing on Qiao Ruiyi and Yuan Xingyou. He nodded slightly, said "Good morning", and then walked straight to his seat and sat down.

The others muttered in their hearts at the same time: This must be Yi Xiaolan, right?

——As expected, he is a man of few words.

Manager Wu Yanhao smiled and helped the two newcomers get to know the other people in the room.

Then Cao Lin clapped his hands and said, "Okay, now that everyone is here, let's have a training match first. Let me see how you cooperate."

…

The training match begins.

Yi Xiaolan’s shooter style is sophisticated and he can suppress his opponents in almost every laning phase.

While Xu Helian's support may seem gentle, he is actually very cautious in every step. Every skill he releases is just right, and he can even start a team fight and turn the tide of battle at the critical moment.

While doing the calculations, he couldn't help but glance sideways.

——This support and shooter... are a bit scary.

On the other side, Qiao Ruiyi's side lane play was extremely fierce. He killed the opponent's top laner alone during the laning phase, and then cooperated with Yuan Xingyou's jungler to directly invade the jungle, turning the enemy jungle upside down.

Yuan Xingyou’s jungling rhythm is extremely strong, and every gank is extremely precise. What’s even more surprising is that the cooperation between him and Qiao Ruiyi is almost seamless, as if they can predict each other’s actions without communicating.

(Gank: the abbreviation of Gang Kill, refers to the cooperation of multiple teammates to double-team and sneak attack the enemy or vulnerable targets, quickly forming a situation of outnumbering the enemy)

You En touched his chin - is this the tacit understanding between young lovers?

After the training match, Cao Lin nodded with satisfaction when reviewing the game: "Not bad, much better than I thought."

The players facing them were members of ambition's second team.

The fact that they were able to overpower Team Two showed that these five people were qualified to play professionally.

Manager Wu Yanhao hurriedly turned around and left the training room. He was going to print the contract.

You En was applauding. Yuan Xingyou and Qiao Ruiyi performed well, and the shooting and supporting players they recommended were no less impressive.

After Suan Suan put down his phone, he took a deep breath and looked at his new teammates.

——Perhaps, this team... can really go further.

Three days later, the Ambition e-sports club officially announced the roster for the new season.

As soon as the Weibo post was published, the comment section exploded instantly:

[ambition e-sports club 20xx season roster]

Head coach: Cao Lin

Assistant coach: You En

Mid-lane\Captain: Calculate

Jungle: Shining Star

Side Lane: Dark Moon

The fans were completely stunned.

Hot review first:

[A die-hard fan of the Ambition team]? Am I dazzled? Besides Calculating, where are the other team members? ? Who are these four people?

Second most popular comment:

[I want to be the dog of the team] How did I go from the team to the assistant coach position? ? ?

Hot review third:

[Friendly discussion] I heard that Tianrandai and Kuangye transferred to the Panic team. Is Ambition giving up on himself by making this substitution?

The game forums and official chat rooms were instantly flooded with doubts:

[There is still no solution in the end] How about one person leading four newcomers? Run quickly, don't be dragged down by these newcomers!

[Kiss the pen and ink] No need to look, ambition is just sent this season.

【ambition=I will win】Isn't Yaoxing a streamer? Anyue is Yaoxing's friend, I've seen them play games together before.

[Don't be a bootlicker] Dark Moon and Yao Xing are older than Suan Suan, right? E-sports senior team?

【5145+62】This ID of Laomo...isn't it meant to be funny?

[Don’t let life go to waste] True fans, run away, your home team is crazy!

【tell me】True fans say the sky is falling!

[I don't know anything] Who are the paranoid and hardworking people? No such person exists. Could they have been recommended by the second team?

【dissjijiji】Are professional teams so casual nowadays?

[The third color] Other teams either kept their lineups unchanged or made minor adjustments to their personnel, but why did it become an epic earthquake for Ambition?

…

ambition base.

Wu Yanhao swiped the public opinion data on the tablet, frowning: "The official announcement effect is worse than expected. Fans generally don't think highly of us."
