As the second cup of the 2022 CFM Champions Cup, as the Cup of Champions, the Dragon Teng Cup of the Fighting Fish Champion will affect the total points of the Champions Cup of the participating teams. In this competition, the EP that won the Huya Champion Dragon Teng Cup has become the focus of attention of players.
【Lineup alternates, EP still becomes a T1 team on the field】
According to the current LINEUP list submitted by EP, Xiao Chen will replace Havoc's position in the Dragon Teng Cup of Fighting Fish Champions. Xiao Chen's appearance also reflects ep's emphasis on the performance of newcomers. In the 2021 CFM Champions Cup, Xiao Chen's multiple MVP performances also proved his personal potential.
For EP, in addition to Xiao Chen's changes, the other four people remain unchanged, which also improves the fault tolerance rate of the team. The Four Ofe White Lone Wolf North And Big Dream scored all 0.89 to 0.80 rounds in the Huya Champion Dragon Teng Cup, and the difference in values was small, which also highlighted that every player had a stable performance in the game, and the timely firepower between teammates became the key to EP's initiative on the field.
As Da Meng took over the command position, although the personal kill data declined, it was still in the T1-T2 echelon, which also highlighted that Da Meng's performance after assuming the command position would not affect the individual's performance. And it is the stable output of each player in the EP that also makes this team labeled "Gun Men's Team" by players, which shows that players recognize the strength of this team.
【Opponent adjustment, EP needs to adjust tactics】
With the EP appearing in Group A of the Dragon Teng Cup, the opponents will be adjusted to AG, BS, KZ and Xuanshi, and the adjustment of the opponents will also make the EP usher in new challenges.
Looking at the EP in the 2021 competition, the EP won more or lost less when it encountered the four teams of AG, BS, KZ and Hyunshi, which further enhanced the possibility of EP qualifying in the group. However, in the previous competition, BS had caused a lot of trouble for ep, and the adjustment of the BO2 format also made it possible for other teams to draw EP.
For EP, when facing multiple established teams, ep's tactical style needs to be adjusted. Whether the big dream of the EP conductor at the time can make the best response has also become a test of the big dream.
【Competition format upgrade, opportunities and challenges coexist】
The Final Four Doubles of the Dragon Cup will open the BO5 and BO7 formats, and the upgrade of the format will test the players' preparation and understanding of the gun pool and the map pool.
During the 2021 CFM Huya Champions Cup, the EP broke through from the losers group final, and then played the final, two BO5 games in succession, which also highlighted ep's ability to resist blows. For EP, although the format of the semifinals doubles will be adjusted to BO5 and BO7, this may become another guarantee for EP to compete for the title.
The reason for this is that the EP has shown a certain ability to turn over in previous finals. Whether it is in the 2021 CFM Champions Cup Finals, after being won by R.LGD, its two consecutive points to bring the two sides back to the same running line or in the 2021 CFM Huya Champions Cup, EP consecutive breakthroughs from the loser group final to reverse the disadvantage and finally win the championship, which reflects that EP can have a stronger explosive force under harsh conditions.
Combined with ep's current overall performance, EP is still one of the favourites to win the title in the Dragon Teng Cup. Of course, for other teams, with a short offseason, I believe each team will make corresponding adjustments, which will also increase the difficulty of EP winning the championship. In this year's Fighting Fish Champion Dragon Cup, whether the EP that has been pinned on high hopes can complete the consecutive championships, let us look forward to the ep's strength in the Fighting Fish Champion Dragon Cup.
