On May 10, the winner group of the 2024kpl spring playoffs had a focus battle. Chengdu ag Super Play Club defeated its old rival Chongqing Wolves 4-1 and took the lead in getting a ticket to the spring finals.
head coach Milk Tea said frankly after the game that the goal at the beginning of the season was not to fall into Group B, but as the team became more established and became more understanding, he and his teammates agreed that we should change the goal and win the championship together, right?
No matter what the final result is, this is a story of growth and transformation, related to everyone in the Chengdu ag Super League. If one individual is selected, top laner Xuan Ran is undoubtedly representative. Less than a year after entering KPL, I have experienced the pain of failure and the joy of winning the championship. This season, I won the regular season MVP in one fell swoop with a strong attitude. Through Xuan Ran, let us now focus on the inner world of a professional rookie. .
’s acceptance speech “I have been memorizing it for a long time”
“I am very excited and happy to be awarded the best player of the regular season. Winning this award is a recognition of my performance on the court. I would like to thank the KPL Alliance and my teammates for their support of me. Trust, thank the coaching staff for cultivating me, and thank the fans who have accompanied and supported me all the way..."
turned the time back to the moment when the awards were presented during the regular season. Xuanran stood on the stage and read out his acceptance speech without stopping. At that time, former KPL coach Gemini joked, "Xuanran must have been memorizing it for a long time."
What’s interesting is that when he was asked to recall his mood at that moment, Xuanran repeated it exactly. When asked if he had prepared the “lines”, he was very honest, “I was prepared, and the club also helped. . "
This is just a big boy who is under 19 years old. He only made his KPL debut in August last year. He can't help but be nervous when standing in the spotlight. However, Xuanran was extremely relaxed after entering the Canyon of Kings. Because of his radical and sharp operations, he was dubbed the "Warrior Commander" by fans. On the surface, his career was going smoothly.
debuted in the summer split, and reached the finals with his teammates in the Challenger Cup in November. He simply won the championship trophy in the KIC finals of the King of Kings, and won the spring regular season mvp after entering 2024...
For a newcomer Everything seemed to happen too fast, and even Xuanran himself looked back at this journey with a somewhat childish understatement.
"Satisfied (with my performance). In fact, we also have a lot of flaws. We have them in every game, but we are just not caught by our opponents." As for the famous scenes in his career, Xuanran doesn't seem to take it too seriously, " I don’t think any of them are particularly good, in fact, they are all similar.” Along with Hua Mulan’s stealing home in the 2023 World Championship of Kings, which was regarded as a classic by countless fans, Xuanran still recalled it calmly, “We often do this in training matches. It's quite normal."
There are too many difficulties behind the understatement.
It sounds like the path of professional e-sports that countless players dream of is not as difficult as imagined, but this is not the case. Too many difficulties are affected by it. Hidden behind his childish look.
As early as 2021, 16-year-old Xuan Ran was recruited into the youth training of Chengdu ag because of his talent. However, due to the subsequent age restrictions of the Honor of Kings Professional League (you must be 18 years or older to participate), he could only return. Home on call. This is a period of hard work on internal skills. Even if he is not in the team, Xuanran still spends 10 hours practicing every day.
According to his own words, "I just want to work professionally, and I also think this is something that can be pursued as a career." His parents didn't quite understand. Fortunately, his elder sister, who is 10 years older, understood Xuanran and persuaded him again and again. parents.
It was July last year when Xuan Ran made his mark in the competition for the first time. He was loaned to Taicang q9 by Chengdu ag Super Play Club and participated in the 7th National Competition of Honor of Kings. Xuan Ran and his teammates performed well and finally won 4 Defeated Wuhan DKL 2-2 to win the championship, while Xuanran won FMVP.
Even so, he still didn't dare to think about kpl at that time, "I felt that we were still far away from that stage."
However, more than a month later, the dream came into reality, because Yinuo competed in the Asian Games and the club had An additional quota was obtained, and Xuan Ran was added to the squad.Some people say that Xuan Ran is lucky, but opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. When
entered KPL, Xuanran quickly felt the pressure of the top league. His debut appeared in the third round of the 2023 summer regular season. At that time, Chengdu ag super play played against Guangzhou ttg, falling behind by a big score of 1 to 2. Xuanran came on as a substitute in the match point game. There is no such thing as becoming a god in one battle. This newcomer has a weak sense of presence, and Chengdu ag super play club also lost the game.
In Xuanran’s eyes, the real integration with his teammates was already three months later in the Challenger Cup. Chengdu ag Super League reached the finals, but lost to Chongqing Wolves 2-4 and finished second.
"We lost the game, but picking up the cup is a arena of transformation. The problem of my tendency to get involved has gradually been solved, and my teammates have become more and more understanding." One month later, in the 2023 World Championship KIC final, Xuanran did not let it go again. The opportunity slipped away, and Chengdu AG Super Play Club defeated Beijing WB 4-2 to win the championship. This was the club's first championship in 1,477 days.
For newcomer Xuan Ran, it only took 142 days to win his first world championship. He is lucky, and his hard work deserves this luck. Entering 2024, Chengdu ag super play club began to experience the replacement of old and new players, and Xuanran used more stable performance to push the team forward. Chengdu ag super play club only lost one big game in the regular season, and won two games in the winner group in the playoffs. Advancing to the finals 4-1.
"This road is really difficult to walk." Thank you to the coach and teammates
To this day, Xuanran is willing to leave the most memorable moments to the World Championship, and the most gratitude is given to coach Li Tuo and his teammates.
In Xuan Ran’s description, coach Li Tuo is the one who changed him the most, “Everyone calls me ‘Warrior Commander’ because I am very brave when I play. I want to take advantage of opportunities when I see them. I often chase five players by myself.” Playing alone. It is easy to be killed by the opponent. The coach communicated with me time and time again, guiding me and asking me to pay attention to the cooperation with my teammates, making me more stable. "
As for teammates, a group of young people are indispensable in daily life. Although it was rough and tumble, during training and competition, Xuan Ran admitted that everyone was serious.
"Everyone has their differences. In one game, I told my teammates that I wanted to use Ya Lian (hero name). At first they all opposed it, but I saw that Ya Lian was very strong in the late game and insisted on using this hero. In the final game After I won, my teammates were the first to come up to encourage me. "Obviously, in this group, everyone can actively try, and everyone is united in their hearts for victory.
Xuan Ran feels grateful every time he thinks about every little thing in these clubs. When looking for the reason, Xuan Ran said, "Because this road is really difficult to walk."
Xuan Ran is candid. Di said that for a professional e-sports player to be able to compete not only requires strength, but also luck. This kind of luck largely comes from the platform and environment that you have access to. "What kind of teammates you meet and what kind of club you meet are very important. It is not only your personal performance, but it will also be torture if the environment is not suitable. Chengdu ag super play club is like a big family. Without coaches and teammates, I wouldn’t be who I am now.”
As he continues to achieve good results on the court, Xuanran has gained more and more fans, and he is also happy to broadcast. Zhong interacted with fans, and because of his real and interesting words, he was laughed at by fans as "a host who was delayed by professional competitions", while Xuanran began to think about how to use his influence to help more people.
March 3 this year is National Hearing Day. On this day, Xuanran, as an e-sports player, issued a public welfare appeal, hoping that more people would pay attention to hearing-impaired children.
When talking about this, Xuanran was a little shy: "I don't know how many fans I have, and I dare not say how influential I am, but as a professional e-sports player, I hope to convey positive energy, and doing charity is itself A happy thing. "
Today, Xuanran has become one of the outstanding players in kpl, and his journey to become the king is about to reach a new climax.Xuan Ran has previously revealed his two goals for this season. The first is to help the team reach the finals, and the second is to win the league championship with his teammates. The first goal has been achieved, at the Dalian Sports Center Gymnasium on May 18.
