Chapter 22
If You Lack Strength, Fake the Confidence!

Looking back at the recent head-to-head records of the two teams, and after predicting the win rate, the oddball concluded: "Xuan Shi has shown signs of improvement and has just ended their 4-game losing streak."

"But they're facing AG today, who only lost one game in the regular season and is the top team in the league."

"It feels like they just came out of the newbie village and are now facing the big boss."

Xiao Yu agreed with this point of view, "Yeah, yeah, indeed, the upcoming schedule is not very friendly to Xuan Shi, it's like a hell-level difficulty."

"Xuan Shi needs to have a do-or-die mentality to have a chance."

"Let's see how far Xuan Shi can go under Jiang Qin's leadership."

The oddball smiled and said, "Well, if Xuan Shi has any chance, I think it's going to be in the area of tactics."

"The battle of command in this game is also a big draw."

"After Chong'er retired, Yu Da Shuai returned to AG from Qing Jiu and took on the role of main commander. They've been sailing smoothly this season and haven't experienced any setbacks."

"But Jiang Qin is a grass-roots player who came from the wild and doesn't play by the rules, he's a bit unpredictable."

Xiao Yu thought for a moment and agreed, "Yeah, yeah, I agree with Oddball's view."

"Jiang Qin is still a newbie, and this is his first time starting. Others don't even have any game footage to analyze, he's like a blank sheet of paper."

"If Xuan Shi wants to win, it depends on his command to make a surprise victory."

"Okay, Xuan Shi's players are on stage, let's take a look at the pre-match team cheer-up segment and see what kind of state they're in."

"..."

In the official live stream, viewers' bullet comments flew by quickly.

〔AG加油,AG无敌!〕[AG go! AG is invincible!]

〔怪咖站队也太明显了,什么叫野路子出生的草莽,看不起谁呢!〕[Oddball is so obviously taking sides, what do you mean 'grass-roots player from the wild,' who are you looking down on!]

〔江勤太高调了,总感觉被捧得太高了,就赢了个estar,流量都溢出来了!〕[Jiang Qin is too high-profile, I always feel like he's been hyped up too much, he just won against eStar, and the hype is overflowing!]

〔那必须破釜沉舟,给你1个w,你也玩命干啊。〕[He definitely needs to go all out, give him 10,000 yuan, and he'll fight to the death.]

〔分析得没毛病,炫石想赢,还得看江勤,1个w也不冤枉!〕[The analysis is spot-on, if Xuan Shi wants to win, it still depends on Jiang Qin, 10,000 yuan is worth it!]

〔我去,吓我一跳,我特么戴着耳机,耳朵都震麻了。〕[Damn, scared me, I was wearing headphones, my ears are numb!]

〔噗,卧槽,江勤逗比啊!〕[Pfft, holy crap, Jiang Qin is so funny!]

〔hhh,江勤也太可了吧,有活呀!〕[Hahaha, Jiang Qin is so cute, he's got it!]

〔太帅了,气势打满了!〕[So cool, full of energy!]

〔...〕

The bullet comments suddenly changed because the live stream switched to the player cheer-up segment.

The camera focused on the home team, Xuan Shi.

Xuan Shi's players stood in a row, their postures were casual, Xiao Yang still looked like he hadn't woken up.

Head coach, Zao Zao, stood firmly in the center, he looked at Jiang Qin who was second from the left and said humbly, "Everyone play well, Jiang Qin, say a few words."

Jiang Qin nodded, took two steps forward, hooked his hands together, signaling for his teammates to huddle closer.

When he saw Xiao Li, Hades, and the others coming closer, he pulled out an ice cream from his pants pocket, held it like a microphone, and took a deep breath.

With his knees slightly bent, his left finger pointing to the sky, he shouted with all his might, "Are you all ready?"

The voice was extremely penetrating, his teammates felt it go straight to their foreheads, then they entered a state of being energized like they were on a stimulant.

"Roar..."

"Ready!!!"

The powerful roar, their morale went up immediately, even Xiao Yang transformed into a battle face.

Douyu Live!

Jiang Qin roared with all his might, Peng Team was also deeply affected, he pointed both hands toward the camera and roared, "Coaches, are you ready?"

"Damn, this is truly explosive, just one sentence and the energy is up, everyone's battle face."

"This is the kind of passion and vitality you need for a competition, go for it."

"..."

The coaches in the live stream also started to spam bullets.

〔艹,娃都被吼醒了,我先去哄一哄!〕[Damn, even the kids woke up, I'll go comfort them first!]

〔玛德法克,吓我一跳!〕[Damn it, scared the hell out of me!]

〔噗哈哈哈,还好我机智,看到他掏出可爱多的时候,立马就把音量调小了!〕[Pfft hahaha, I'm so smart, when I saw him pull out a cute ice cream, I immediately turned the volume down!]

〔真特么的帅啊,还真有老大的气场了!〕[Damn, so cool, he really has the boss' aura!]

〔牛逼克拉斯,666!〕[Awesome, 666!]

〔就这一声吼,价值1个w!〕[Just this roar, worth 10,000 yuan!]

〔真带劲啊,就这一句话,我都有点热血沸腾了!〕[So cool, just this one sentence, I'm a little excited too!]

〔气势打满,炫石加油!〕[Full of energy, Xuan Shi go!]

〔...〕

...

AG team's player cheer-up segment:

Head coach, Liang Liang, said calmly, "It's still the same thing, don't be arrogant or impatient, play steadily."

"PL doesn't have any absolutely weak teams, don't underestimate them."

Yu Da Shuai followed, "Play well, bring out the state you've been training for, we can do it."

"Competition is not about roaring, your skills speak for themselves, step up."

"Come on, let's cheer each other up."

"Go..."

The players formed a circle, they roared in encouragement, put their right hands together and gave each other a pat, then they walked towards the battle platform one by one.

...

Commentary desk!

Xiao Yu smiled cutely, surprised, "Jiang Qin even pulled out an ice cream from his pocket, he's all about the show."

"Are you all ready?"

"He roared with all his might, his teammates were also very cooperative, their energy went up immediately."

The oddball smiled and said, "Well, even though the game hasn't started yet, Xuan Shi gives you a strong feeling, very intimidating."

"While AG, they're not trying to outdo Xuan Shi in this aspect, it feels like they're calm and collected."

"No matter what the wind blows, I remain unmoved, this is the style of a strong person."

Xiao Yu continued, "Yeah, that's very real, Xuan Shi's energy is up, they have to give it their all in this game."

"AG's performance is very calm, but no one can underestimate their strength, they have the confidence and the ability."

The oddball nodded and said, "That's right, in the face of absolute strength, everything else is fleeting."

"Come on, we're about to have our 1v1 match, the winner will get the first pick in the map."

"Xuan Shi is sending out Jiang Qin, AG is sending out Ou Ou, a duel between AK47s."

Xiao Yu explained, "AK47 duel, in the last match, Jiang Qin used AK47_Fire麒麟 [Fire Qilin], he also showed some pretty good positioning skills."

"Ou Ou's AK, anyone who's watched his games knows, he's super fast."

"I feel like if they face off, it's going to be a race to the finish, the gunfight won't last more than 3 seconds."

"..."

〔炫石:实力不够,气势来凑!〕[Xuan Shi: Not enough skill, make up for it with energy!]

〔欧欧是国服前三AK,江勤就有这实力了?〕[Ou Ou is in the top 3 AK players in the country, does Jiang Qin really have the skill?]

〔只有我注意到,江勤把id改了嘛,哈哈哈!〕[Am I the only one who noticed Jiang Qin changed his ID? Hahaha!]

〔噗,卧槽了!〕[Pfft, holy crap!]

〔鹏队说他id拗口,改一改,结果他这改了个啥?〕[Peng Team said his ID was hard to pronounce, so he changed it, what did he change it to?]

〔cj,我特么直接代入的就是长江,真的是够了!〕[Cj, I instantly think of the Yangtze River, this is enough!]

〔哈哈哈,这也是够敷衍的啊,一个字,懒!〕[Hahaha, that's pretty perfunctory, one word, lazy!]
