star fights the king?
started with a battle between the girls in the fandom and the boys in e-sports.
"Why did Diamond Xingyao come to join in the fun?" "Is this the king?" "Is xxx here to be funny?" "This level is not as good as mine."
After the premiere of "Fight to the Top" on June 12, Relevant topics appeared one after another on SNS. This variety show, which has been covered for more than half a year, finally made its debut, and unsurprisingly attracted the attention of two top groups - the rice circle and the e-sports circle.
Before the Douban rating was released, the one-star and four-star comments started "crazy fights", discussing e-sports variety shows, and what is the original sin.
was dehydrated on site, and the battles of playing the real
"Fight to the Top" were huge.
Four major professional clubs and a coach with four championships, as well as thirty stars. ( Chengdu AG Super Wanhui , Wuhan eStarPro, Nanjing Hero Jiujing, Chongqing Wolves (formerly QGhappy), Gemini training star, Yang Mi , Gong Jun , Huang Minghao , Zhang Han , Hu Xia , Song Zuer , He Sui , Li Xueqin, Wang Lin, Xu Weizhou , Ao Ziyi , etc.)
The former can be called the "dream combination" in the hearts of old e-sports fans, while the latter is like entertainment Circle tea party.
The relationship between the entertainment industry and games is quite close.
Over the years, I have confessed my feelings through the air, played games live, revealed my gaming rank, and even been exposed as taking a girl to gain points. Regularly or irregularly, there are always artists and games on the hot search list.
Even so, it shouldn't be easy to find thirty artists in the entertainment industry who can play games (Honor of Kings) and variety shows.
Faced with this group of veteran players, the program team gave a simple and rude greeting gift, and the backhand was an internal confrontation of "getting out of the water".
Under the watchful eyes of professional players, the celebrities who are known as the heroes and heroines of e-sports literature battle each other, using their strength to speak for themselves, allowing them to find their correct position in e-sports where food is the original sin. There is no doubt that
is important.
Sweating on the hands and feet is the most common one, and Yang Mi and Ou Hao, who had not yet been archaeologically recognized as gods at the time, were also among them. Aunt Xue Wang Lin, who knocked on the door at Yiping's house that year, even said that this was the first time she felt nervous.
Huang Minghao was pointed out that he forgot to bring his headset, and then he played " Love's Support " which was not in tune. Although it eased the tension, it also forced Yang Mi to demonstrate "Are you okay" with his face.
There are also some people with overwhelming self-confidence, and their strength shows that people are addicted to food.
Gong Jun is the first to bear the brunt, kk would like to be called "Ouch Master".
shouted "Ouch" to everyone he met, and turned the game into a voice-activated competition. The jury complained repeatedly, jokingly saying that it was a flood competition, and the barrage made him want to use his mobile phone to help him play.
finally came to the limelight and ended the game with the words "courage and knowledge", but it was difficult to conceal his true rookie strength.
Xiao Xiao is a representative figure of immersive players. Mobile phone gameplay is back in the game, but there is no way to win the solo game.
large can be called a novice. Before the game, Yang Mi's sentence "Raise pigs over there, raise Zhang Da Da" can be said to be a semantic pun, predicting his subsequent performance on the field.
He did not live up to expectations. He performed a series of "high-playing operations" such as "Hit His Teammates", "I Got the Dragon", "Why Did I Flash Again", and led the team to victory. The jury said bluntly that the self-revealed rank was a bit watery.
Xue Ming, who revealed before the game that he was ranked in the top four, not only was unable to team up with his acquaintances, but also in this game, as a member of Zhang Dada, he quickly lost the game.
However, there are also "rookies" who have a clear self-awareness, such as Li Xueqin. After his teammate Zhang Da boasted, "I can jump over the tower and kill people," Haikou's expression remained as sad as ever, and he helplessly responded, "I don't believe we can jump over the tower and kill people."
The water match ended, and the stars’ gaming prowess was truly demonstrated.
Some people are true kings, some are just newbies, and some just lost 75 stars.
cannot be denied, 30 celebrity PK kings, with their own highlights. But at the same time, people can't help but feel puzzling. With the current strength and attitude displayed by most celebrities, this variety show called e-sports competition is more like finding a bunch of people to play "playing house." . In the
program, the stars' seemingly enthusiastic and impassioned oaths were completely separated from the stars' actual performance. Even KK was silently feeling "embarrassed" in his heart, having to worry about their future life in the club and their needs. The coaches who train them worry.
All-star breaks anti-?
In fact, each mountain is higher than the other.
The "Water Race" is just an appetizer. After that, "Fight to the Top" enters the real star's large-scale "defense breaking" scene.
Zhang Han, who lost the game, immediately practiced the role that the winner Yang Mi used in the game, and said harsh words to Yang Mi, saying "I want to kill you", showing his loser demeanor.
On the first day when Gong Jun entered the club, he was not only embarrassed by his ID because he was "the number one in the national server, Zhao Yun", but he also staged the classic drama "My Teammate is the Team Boss" with He Youjun.
Li Xueqin arrived late and silently complained that she was informed by the program team that she could not attend the meeting because her gaming skills were too poor. The members of
IN TO 1 joked to themselves after playing a game against their coach that "there is no need to review the game."
The strict requirements of professionals are even more inescapable.
Zhang Yifan faced the club coach’s review questions and honestly exposed his ignorance. He was also a little helpless because of being scolded.
Wang Lin backed down because of her poor skills.
Xu Weizhou can be called a shameless "mouse shit". Despite being indifferent to the reminder of "can't be late", he was leisurely late on the first day of training. When he saw the coach's angry face, he still smiled playfully.
Just like what was mentioned in a certain novel and "Fight to the Top", "Glory is not a game for one person", so Xu Weizhou was bound to suffer punishment along with his teammates. So the coach gave an order, and the five stars lined up in a row and completed five squats neatly.
But as soon as the coach finished speaking, Xu Weizhou "acted like a monster" again and "consciously" did a few more squats. Hu Xia looked next to him inexplicably.
Did you think he was finally over? No. After the coach asked to change the team uniforms and assemble on time, he took his time and put on the wrong clothes. Facing his teammates who were ready to go, he still "calmly" corrected his mistakes without taking the time limit seriously.
seems to be the only Lai Meiyun among them who has been severely beaten by life. He has to be the one who reminds your teammates to complete the tasks on time.
The one who "lost" completely in this game was Yang Mi who finally couldn't maintain her expression control.
After the swimming competition, Yang Mi, Zhang Dada, Zhang Han, Ou Hao and others were assigned to the same club for training.From that moment on, this 85-year-old’s nightmare began.
Here, Yang Mi had to assume the jungle position that he was unfamiliar with. Even if he continued to communicate with Zhang Dada during the game and kept repeating "come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, let's get it," and the final score was 0-8. excellent performance.
Looking back at the normal game, Yang Mi had several opportunities to speak dirty words, but because he was in front of the camera, he could not say them out. Sun Bin didn't zoom in, but silenced all our teammates!
After putting down the phone, the camera cleverly showed a close-up of Yang Mi’s face. She looked down and smiled without showing her teeth. The despair of cooperating with pig teammates in the future, the contempt for the strength of pig teammates and making excuses, and the embarrassment in front of professional players are all revealed.
There is no skill in this smile, it is all emotion.
Stars not only have to face the harshness of coaches and lack of strength, but also the arrogance and hindrance of their teammates. It can be said that this e-sports experience is destined to be ill-fated.
As for breaking the defense, there will not be zero times, but countless times.
Discussing the compatibility of e-sports and variety shows
The ambition of "Fight to the Top" is obvious. The
program is jointly produced by Tencent Video , Hero Sports VSPN, and King of Glory, DDDD.
Judging from the feedback from the first episode of the program, there was not much splash but considerable controversy. Using e-sports as a variety show theme exposed the incompatibility between the two to some extent.
Although the program team has cleverly chosen Honor of Kings as the entry point, giving itself the advantage of a national audience. However, the production of the program still failed to get rid of the "thankless" predicament.
The core point is that although it is based on e-sports, "Fight to the Top" is ultimately a variety show. The content of the
program is mainly based on live reactions, jokes and complaints between artists, and even interesting interactions between professional lineups, with the main task of ensuring fun and gameplay.
As a result, the game scenes and explanations were reduced, which became the "unclear" time in the program. The game was not played completely, and personal shots and slow motion were added to the replay of the highlights. This kind of variety show editing created a situation that "laymen can't understand, but experienced people can't understand everything" as the barrage said.
From this aspect, the editing balance of "Fighting to the Top" may be more difficult to master than ordinary reality shows. Especially the audience composition of the show puts great pressure on productions that are accustomed to variety show editing.
is in the comment area of "Fight to the Top" program, #assemble! Prepare for team battles with _! The poll on the # topic showed that more than 30% of the viewers of this variety show do not play games at all.
In other words, most viewers have a certain understanding of Honor of Kings, and may even be experienced players, and the purpose of coming to this variety show is actually the game itself.
As for the current version of "Fighting to the Top", the viewers who want to watch e-sports are helpless to see the scenes cut into pieces; and for the viewers who want to watch celebrities, the game scenes are invalid content and will also be decorated with bells and whistles. slow motion causing visual pollution.
How many game scenes and popular science explanations should be retained, and how to cut the game to make it simple and easy to understand. This issue should perhaps become an issue that "Fight to the Top" must solve.
It must be admitted that at present, "Strike to the Top" is still wavering between accommodating the layman or taking care of the expert.
But at the same time, kk does not deny the emotional value generated by the show.
In addition to the happiness created by the artists' "sweet words", in the face of the simple joy and confusion of the game, "Fight to the Top" creates a feeling and passion on the basis of entertainment.
Whether it is to promote the ambition of e-sports, reveal the true ecology of the e-sports industry, or the unity, friction and blood of competitive games... Here, we can get a glimpse of the cruelty of professional players, see their love and the youth they fight for. , and the self who once spent their youth with them.
E-sports, from 2003 The State Sports General Administration officially approved e-sports as an official sports competition, to 2020 Asian Olympic Council announced that e-sports will become an Asian Games official competition event, it has experienced a Times of joy and transformation.
"Fight to the Top" has provided countless players with an opportunity to realize their dreams this summer.
