Comparison of data between the two sides of the decisive battle
The most intuitive is the record of the two sides, at present, Yang Dingxin has a slight lead of 7 wins and 5 losses, but recently he has suffered 3 consecutive defeats in the face of Shen Zhenchen, it can be said that the attack and defense are easy to change, and the mentality of the two chess players may also have one after another.
More important is the recent competitive status of the two, this article takes the end of the LG Cup semi-final as a node (after November 9, 2021), to examine their recent official competition results.
Yang Dingxin recently played a total of 9 sets, 5 wins and 4 losses, 4 sets lost to 2 sets of 1, Fan Tingyu and Huang Yunsong each set. Entering the 2022 only 2 innings of the Playoffs, one win and one loss. Compared with last year's 63.33% win rate, it is difficult to say that the state is good. As Yang Dingxin's bitter hand in 2 months, Feng Jiaxi stayed in the national team to train with Yang Dingxin on the second day of the New Year, and he can feel the pertinence of the training from the candidate.
Shen Zhenchen has recently played a total of 22 innings, 20 wins and 2 losses, and the number of pairs and wins are terrible. The two sets lost were the loss to Bian Xiangyi in the final of the National Hand Mountain Cup and the loss to Lee Dong-hoon in the group final of the Bull's Knee And claw Cup. Shin's victory over Ding Hao in the Finals was the highest quality in recent times, reflecting that he still maintains a fiery feel. On the day of the final (February 5), he will also play against Park Chang-jin in the Korean League.
It is also worth mentioning that in the TWT finals of the informal competition in early January, Wang Xinghao defeated Shin Jin-chan 2-1 to win the championship. Although Shen Zhenchen himself emphasized that the "game environment is bad" Yunyun, but to quote Hu Yaoyu's teacher, "because although this is not an official world competition, Shen Zhenchen must go all out, after all, no one will go through with the 600,000 yuan championship prize (laughs), and Shen Zhenchen is now trying to dominate the jianghu, like this chess duel, he will either not play, since he is down, he will definitely not lose easily." Shen Zhenchen's excuse seems to have little strength, can the environment be worse than the mouse cable on the tentacles?
Shin Jin-chan, who missed four consecutive championships (Samsung, Kokusai Mountain Range, TWT, Bull's Knee Andcafe), was a little annoyed, so the idea of winning the championship was even more urgent.
Make some suggestions on possible situations
Pay attention to the time and allocate time reasonably. It's no secret that Shin is used to taking time offensives at the World Series. Losing to Wang Xinghao in the TWT final was also due to the pursuit of time. Therefore, Yang Dingxin needs to pay a little attention to the allocation of time, especially to reduce mistakes as much as possible in the second reading stage and avoid the reversal of victory and defeat like the semi-final of the Samsung Cup.
Choose the pattern you're good at to avoid your opponent's edge. The experience of veterans Chen Yaoye and Park Tinghuan in dealing with Shin Jin-chan should be learned, and they are both good at introducing chess into the pattern they are good at, so as to defeat the strong players. If Shen Zhenchen is often in a hurry to race but exposes flaws, Yang Dingxin may blindly seek stability and miss the opportunity to win. To use one's own strengths and shorts, one needs to have a clear view and conception of the overall situation on the spot.
Maintain absolute sobriety and self-confidence. The masters between Bo Zhong and Bo Zhong finally looked at the heart war. Ding Hao faced Shen Zhenchen in the finals of the Siege A, and the dominant situation was intimidated by the momentum of Shen Zhenchen - "When I saw the dawn of victory, the fact that the opponent was 'Shen Zhenchen' began to emerge in my mind and echoed in my ears. Then I saw the fierce eyes of my opponent's wolf, and I saw myself slowly falling down, as if relieved. "- Regret losing the game. There is no room for hesitation and self-doubt in the game, and competitive Go is both a practice and a refinement of the heart.
