On February 27, the Special Comma Cup S8 ended a four-game eight-four competition. To say that last night's most thrilling game, but also the Moon third-line deer to surround the Chaemiko gun mage troops, obviously attack and defense are defeated, the population is also backward, but Moon's deer can always turn decay into magic, live to fight the inferior confrontation into an advantage, it is simply unbelievable.
I have to say that Moon True TM is a god.
However, Moon's deer operation is beautiful, and it is already a routine operation for the audience, who let this be Moon? In contrast, the rise of the 15-year-old may be even more exciting, from the volunteer of the Golden Race to the big man who has beaten the world championship level in a row, the 15-year-old is on the road to shock the world.
Leenk World Champion, 15-year-old into the Special Comic Cup "Anti-Korean Soldier"
In this year's Special Comic Cup, the 15-year-old group can not be considered good, can only be said to be incomparable. It was too difficult to be in the same group as the three world champions, Moon, ReMinD and FoCuS.
However, the 15-year-old showed amazing combat effectiveness in the group stage, blocking ReNinD's powerful BP Rush in the first round, and then fighting with Luna Moon. As far as the operation of the first two sets is concerned, the 15-year-old is even slightly better, and Moon's huge advantage in the early stage was almost overturned, which shows the vitality of the 15-year-old.
In the losers final, the 15-year-old took away FoCuS with a clean 2-0, in stark contrast to Moon's narrow win and ReMinD's defeat. You know, the 15-year-old uses HUM for ReMinD and Moon, but NE for FoCuS, and the two races switch seamlessly, which shows the strength of their talents.
The opponent in the quarter-finals was Lawliet, who pushed Lawliet to advance to the 15-year-old at the Golden League and ESL Winter Last Year, and this time he did it again.
In the game, 15 years old can be described as brave and strategic. In the early stage, he was full of details, and the various card slots and pulls were well coordinated with architecture, which saved the lives of farmers, not to mention chaemiko, the "Emperor of Terran Details".
In the middle of the game, he grabbed the most important link in HvN – attacking Timing. As the so-called "snake hits seven inches", the 15-year-old can attack at the weakest moment of NE every time, and the team battle operation is also pleasing to the eye, which does not give Lawliet the opportunity to turn over.
In addition, the 15-year-old has also achieved improvisation and is not stuck in a routine. For example, the same EI map, the 15-year-old group stage used the Dragon Eagle, and the quarterfinals against Lawliet were changed to double BB musket Rush, which caught the opponent by surprise.
Since the start of the Special Comic Cup S8, the 15-year-old has defeated three Korean god-level players all the way, so it seems that it is not too much to say "anti-Korean surprise soldiers" in such combat strength.
Volunteers fight back, and their efforts will eventually pay off
Mentioning the age of 15, I have to mention the story of his volunteer at the Golden League.
That was in 2017, and that year, 15 was really only 15. At that time, not many people knew about 15 years old, many people just regarded him as an ordinary volunteer, so there was a story of the Golden League regular player Orcworker practicing with volunteers offline and being squashed, dare to love 15 years old at the beginning to get the script of the sweeping monk?
After 2 years of hard training, the 15-year-old began to emerge in 2019. That year, he won the small y cup and the Shuk cup successively, which was a good starting point.
In 2020, the 15-year-old's improvement is not large, and the individual competition, except for the occasional victory in the small cup, is only among the professional groups of the Golden League Monthly Tournament, and most of the time the competition is the group stage early to return home. Of course, he also won the third place in the WCG team with Color and Romance (LP won the championship in 19 years but did not play at the age of 15).
In 2021, the 15-year-old officially ushered in the outbreak, the most impressive is the Golden League Summer Tournament, when he pushed the 120 and Lawliet two master groups to qualify, and then eliminated the state-effective Chaemiko, the first career time to reach the T1 final four.
After that, the 15-year-old has successively reached the ESL Winter Race and the AWL Final Four, which has become a new force in the magic world that cannot be ignored.
There is no doubt that being able to make breakthroughs in achievements step by step is closely related to the talent and hard work of the 15-year-old. The most obvious point is his double cultivation, no talented players obviously can't control the two races, at the same time, cultivating two races at the same time requires twice the amount of practice, if not hard enough, it is impossible to play.
What an inspirational story to grow into a top master step by step from a volunteer. So, according to this trend, it is time for 15-year-olds to launch a shock to the championship this year?
20 years old is a hurdle, 15 years old can reproduce the legend?
As we all know, e-sports is a sport for young people, after all, young people have better energy and faster reaction speed, and talented players are often able to break through the sky at a very young age.
Warcraft is no exception, throughout the history of Warcraft, you will find that 20 years old is a slash, and many famous players have achieved the title of world champion before the age of 20.
For example, Sky, born in 1985, won the WCG World Championship in 2005, just 20 years old.
Moon, born in 1986, weg in 2005, 19 years old.
Grubby, born in 1986, was crowned king of the WCG in 2004, aged 18.
Infi, born in 1989, won the WEM championship in 2008, aged 19.
TH000, born in 1990, won the 2008 PGL championship, 18 years old.
120, born in 1996, reached the top of the Golden League in 2016, also at the age of 20.
It is really rare for a player like Happy and Color to win the first world championship after being over 25 years old, and most of the players have been fixed at the age of 20-22.
Born in 2002, the 15-year-old is just 20 years old this year, and unconsciously, he has come to the crossroads of his Warcraft career. Don't underestimate the matter of winning the championship, competitive sports, winning and not winning is the essential difference, winning the championship can greatly enhance people's self-confidence, thereby opening the door to a new world. On the contrary, if you keep losing the game, you will have self-doubt, which will produce a series of negative emotions, the most typical example of which is the national football team, which will always go from one failure to another.
Sometimes, a game is a watershed, go up, go up, can't go up again, the fate of life is so magical.
Now, there is still a lot of room left for 15-year-olds to grow, if he can further polish his skills and accumulate experience through continuous competition, I believe he has a great chance to become the new world champion of the magic world.
