The 52-year-old e-sports player and his daughter teamed up to win the championship
On May 10, in Xinjin, Chengdu, 52-year-old Yang Xiurong put on reading glasses, skillfully opened her mobile phone and started playing games. That morning, in the just-concluded 5V5 "team battle", Yang Xiurong relied on a record of 14 kills, 8 assists, and 0 deaths to successfully lead her teammates to victory, and Yang Xiurong was also the MVP of that game (the best in the whole game).
Six years ago, Yang Xiurong came into contact with e-sports at the recommendation of her daughter, and she gradually fell in love with playing mobile games. In the game, Yang Xiurong has multiple accounts, "51-year-old online guard" and "don't fight 51-year-old aunt" are all her. In the game, relying on many heroes in the middle lane and wandering positions, in this season, she rose to the king rank early. And last year, Yang Xiurong also teamed up with her daughter and won the championship in the Chengdu match point of the e-sports national competition.
For Yang Xiurong, e-sports is one of her hobbies, and it doesn't matter if she wins or loses. "The most important thing is to show the life of middle-aged and elderly people, and if young people can do it, we can do it, and we can play together. ”
Wear reading glasses to play games
Multiple heroes have county-level top 100 rankings
Yang Xiurong came into contact with the game "Glory of Kings" in 2016, and Yang Xiurong's daughter "Xiao Langlang" played very well and invited her mother to experience it together. "At first, I didn't know how to play, so I slowly tried to learn. "From knowing heroes to becoming proficient in skills, Yang Xiurong has been playing for six years, until now.
Before this game, Yang Xiurong had actually been exposed to a lot of small games, elimination, love elimination, relying on quick response, she was easy to use. "For me, these [games] are pediatric and not difficult. In 2022, a "sheep is a sheep" mini-game swept the Internet, claiming that the clearance rate is less than 0.1%, "Many people haven't passed, I can also pass the level." Yang Xiurong was a little proud.
"I used to live in the countryside and led everyone to square dance together to exercise. Later, when I got into the game, my peers around me said that I couldn't play it, but the more challenging my personality is, the more I have to do it. "Yang Xiurong, who likes challenges, always likes to try things she doesn't know or understand. "The young guys have quick reflexes and better skills than us. But we are more calm and calm than young people. ”
After playing for six years, Yang Xiurong has slowly found her "natal hero", and her record is getting better and better. The game page shows that one of Yang Xiurong's game numbers "Don't Fight 52-Year-Old Aunt" has been in the game for 2126 days, has been liked 6822 times in battles, has a total imprint 14 times, and has the bronze mark of multiple heroes (top 100 rankings at the county level).
"I think it's important to play games with young people and work as a team. In a five-player game, the most important thing is teamwork. Yang Xiurong said.
Start a live broadcast and play games, and earn a few thousand a month
The daughter said that she was happy to have her mother with her
Since last year, Yang Xiurong has been in contact with live broadcasting. "I've watched some female game streamers, and their skills are not as good as mine. I think what young people can do, I can do too. After Yang Xiurong started the live broadcast, many netizens were attracted to see if this aunt in her 50s was really having a good time.
Yang Xiurong's daughter is also a game anchor, and her daughter is more technical, and she can play in any position. "Many of my live stream fans are young people in their 20s, and they are willing to come and play games with me. I understand that this is a young person's desire to play with their elders, and there is an element of companionship in it. Yang Xiurong has established more than 20 WeChat groups, large and small, and more than 200,000 people watched the live broadcast at its most.
Many young people came to Yang Xiurong's live broadcast room to watch the excitement. "They may also want to prove to their parents and elders why other people's parents can do this, and their own parents are to stop them? Work hard, study hard, and have fun playing. ”
Now Yang Xiurong still often appears in her daughter's live broadcast room, with her daughter, interacting with fans and teaming up to play games. Calculated to be an average of 6 hours a day, playing more than a dozen games. Previously, through the live broadcast, Yang Xiurong could also bring a small income of a few thousand yuan every month, "For us middle-aged and elderly people, it doesn't matter if we earn money or not, just have someone to play with me." ”
In Yang Xiurong's opinion, by playing games, she and her daughter are also closer. "Sometimes she's not with me, but through the game we can also communicate and chat, which is also an important companionship. For me, the game is a bridge between me and my daughter, bringing us both closer. ”
"My mom plays games with me, and I feel very happy, because [many] other people's moms refuse. My mom is also good at skills, and she is good at playing assists. I mainly play jungler and shooter (game character category), so I need a trustworthy support to protect me, and I think my mother is the best candidate. Reality and games, both guarded by mothers, are really warm. Daughter Xiao Langlang said.
Form a "Sunset Red Team" with your peers
The average age of teammates is 55 years old
In reality, Yang Xiurong has many hobbies in addition to e-sports, table tennis, square dancing, and rope skipping. Through the Internet, Yang Xiurong hopes to find more peers to play games in a team.
In April this year, Yang Xiurong and four other peers from all over the country formed the "Sunset Red Team". Among the five members of the team, two aunts and three uncles, all over 50 years old, with an average age of 55 years old, played three friendly matches with the professional team Nanjing Hero.
"It's coming, it's coming, it's coming" "It's over, I let Zhang Liang (the game character) control it"... Regardless of whether you win or lose, you can always hear the laughter of the members of the "Sunset Red Team" at the scene, and everyone will get together to discuss the relationship between heroes and restraint, discuss positioning, and discuss skills. Compared with young people, Yang Xiurong and her party are more calm, and it is easier to enjoy the happiness and emotion of the game itself.
In the field of games, Yang Xiurong also has her own "small goals" - "My confrontation road and shooter position are still not good, I want to practice again." ”
(Note: 孃, niang, in ancient times, called the mother, in Sichuan dialect means aunt.) In parts of western Anhui, it specifically refers to the father's sister or younger sister, pronounced niǎng. According to Red Star News
