如何成为一个经理人

Fnatic Team — 2007-4-9 11:50:22

　介绍

　　当我们回顾2006年的电子竞技时就能看出fnatic在过去2年里达到了一种什么高度,我一直在思考我们是如何做到的,我想这不仅是一个记忆也是一个学习的过程。我想描述一下这个过程,一个称职的经理人需要做到哪些?我们的缺点在哪儿?哪些地方将来能取得进步?首先要说明的一点就是我不敢说对所有的问题都有解答,但我希望能用更多的细节来帮助探索这些问题,并和大家一起分享我的经验和意见。

　　发展

　　当我们追寻电子竞技这个产业的时候,很明显如同选手、战队一样,还有一个最为重要的因素也在发展、成长--那就是管理层。不管是单个的选手还是一个战队,职业选手们在每一步上都要胜过他们的对手,无论是游戏里还是游戏外,要么进行长时间的集训来练习战术直到完美,甚至是进行身体上和意志上的锻炼使得选手能够更好的集中注意力以此获得额外的优势。这些东西是每个选手或战队都应该强迫自己去做的,但这就是全部了吗?有一种典型的态度就是“实力就是一切”这正确吗?

　　平心而论这世界是不公平的,并不是只有最后的结果才会带给你荣誉,你面对公众时的表现,媒体的包装,你的赞助商的级别是否够分量,还有你所能创造出来的宣传效果都能决定你在现实世界中是否能够成功。在游戏圈里很少有人能领会这些,但那却是最为重要的。

　　举个例子,比较一下去年WSVG上Toxic和Fatal1ty的表现。Toxic完全就是一个怪物,他状态正佳,不费多大力气就拿下了冠军,他赢得了所有的荣誉和fans们的追捧。然而,如果你再看看媒体的宣传、赞助商还有最终的经济收入就知道Fatal1ty才是赢家。这本身就证明了电子竞技需要一个职业体育级别的管理措施。要做到这些你必须得拥有选手或者战队,他们要具备获胜的欲望和决心,不仅要在游戏里获胜,还要在广告和宣传上获胜。

　　经理人是什么?

　　如今要给经理人下定义这很困难,比如Mousesports,或者我的fnatic,我相信我们做过的很多事情最后都将变成众多不同的角色。战队经理目前涵盖了以下几个角色:教练、公关、市场营销经理、星探、管理员、网站开发、会计还有最重要的-朋友。我会详细讲述这些角色在一支职业战队中的作用,并会告诉大家哪些是非常重要的,哪些需要很多时间和技巧才能做好。

　　教练--要能够与选手进行交谈。和他们分享你对比赛的想法,最终找到帮助他们提高的方法。这个角色目前发展的相当迅速,我认为在不久的将来大多数职业战队都会有一个专职的教练来协助选手们进行训练或比赛。教练的角色就是在于管理好选手的训练,帮助队伍训练战术并提供肢体上和心理上的训练以此让他们在比赛中获得最大的优势。

　　公关--通过提高选手们回答采访问题的能力、应对媒体的经验以及在公众中的形象来使你的战队在媒体面前变的更有魅力。这个角色也要能够使战队的宣传力度得到提高,因而经理人必须具有宣传并推销战队的能力。

　　这可以通过召开新闻发布会,或者要么在比赛的时候直接和媒体联系要么就给他们的办公室打电话告诉他们战队的近况来实现。大多数媒体都对职业电子竞技的现象很感兴趣,游戏产业在我们的文化中占据了如此大的部分,因此很多传媒机构都在搜寻我们这个世界里的故事。

　　市场营销经理--让你的战队在赞助商面前表现出价值。为了得到资金赞助,你需要让战队变的职业化。这包括表达技巧、专业知识、对电子竞技市场的研究还有最重要的是你的表现要足够专业。目前来看这是最为艰难的一个角色。(至少对我来说!)

　　星探--能够为战队挑选到最合适的选手是极其重要的。签下一个缺乏凝聚力、技术不过关、能力和天赋不够的选手是不可能保持稳定的发挥的。这也是每一个经理人所担心的事情。这种挑选人材的能力会随着经验的增加而见长。

　　管理员--战队里总会有很多事情需要管理,有些事情经常会占用到经理人相当多的时间。比方说选手们的合同问题,薪水,预定宾馆房间、机票,旅行费用预算,签证申请等等还有很多。这对战队和选手来说相当的重要,选手们觉得这些事情如果他们自己去做的话会很令人厌倦和麻烦,但这是战队的管理员所必须做的。

　　网站开发--每支战队都需要一个强有力的主页将方方面面都连在一起。从新闻到网站的activities、比赛结果还有赞助商都要具备。主页通常直接反应了战队的社会形象,需要时刻引起注意。大多数战队把注意力集中到建立一个玩家社区上。

　　要得到一个牢靠稳固的网站最好的办法就是利用战队的fans们,这些fans都很有激情,可以请这些人为他们最喜爱的战队制作一个顶级的主页。如果你想从别的公司购买一个标准的主页,你可能要花数千美元。(这是我最喜欢的部分!)

　　会计--运营管理一支战队总会有很多方面要涉及到钱,因此会计方面的知识必须要有所掌握。这方面的知识应用很广泛比如处理比赛得到的奖金,在不同的地区开户,处理银行或支票的转帐,每个月为来自世界各地的选手支付薪水,在参加比赛时考虑到所有需要用钱的地方等等。

　　我上面描述的是一个强有力的经理人所必须具有的职业技能,当你的战队变得越来越成熟时,有些方面就得更早的引起注意。

　　对新的经理人的几点提示:

　　我想为那些新的经理人提供一些意见,因为我觉得有些错误是有可能一再出现的,而一个成熟的经理人就会避免这些问题。下面就为大家带来一些我的意见:

　　1.　一个新的经理人常犯的最糟糕的错误之一就是向选手承诺他做不到的事情。无论在签约选手或是与赞助商谈判时都要记住,我再说一次,绝对不要撒谎!fnatic的队员们能够相信我们就是因为我们对选手从来不说假话。如果你承诺了你其实根本做不到的事情,那只会使队员们疏远你的组织,这就毁了你的声誉。

　　2.　如果你们是某个国家里新成立的队伍,试着在本国找一个赞助商。当你的战队有了一些成绩之后就先从硬件厂商开始找起,向赞助商展示你们的宣传能力和广告效应。通过当地的LAN比赛和当地的媒体能使得战队迅速获利,这也是为什么要先瞄准当地的赞助商的原因。fnatic一直以来都有这么一个问题,那就是我们的战队缺少一个当地的大本营,我们只能去别的地方找赞助商。

　　3. 要经常对战队做阶段性的总结。比较简单的做法就是,写一个战队的简介,战队阵容如何,你们的价值点体现在哪些方面(赞助商最感兴趣的地方),你们的曝光率高不高,你们所获得的成绩,你们的目标还有对未来的期望,你们的管理,合约细节等等等等。不用写太长,要简明扼要。做好之后应该拿去给赞助商看一看,要时刻保持沟通。你应该每个月都更新一次,因此当你做第一份的时候多花点气力吧,这会让你有一个好的基础。

　　4.　如果你对战队的态度十分认真的话,你应该往任何能让战队保持运转的行业里投资。但不要投入太多的钱,除非你知道你能得到你想要的选手。

　　我希望这篇文章能引起那些经理人的一点兴趣,再次重申我并不是对所有的问题都有解答,而且我们肯定有做的不当的地方,但我在过去的2年半里真的学到了很多东西。我希望你能对此感兴趣。谢谢大家,在评论栏里分享你的意见吧,我肯定还漏掉了很多东西!

　　爱你们的sam!

战胜比赛中的各种挑战

Fnatic Team — 2007-3-26 11:50:26

　　我现在正坐在回家的火车上,我们刚在德国汉诺威的CeBIT展会上经历了一个繁忙的周末,我试图回想起在IC2E大师赛决赛中哪里出了错。

　　呃,第三终究是第三。不过我不认为队员们会对这个结果感到高兴。感觉我在比赛中做出的每个决定都是错误的,我们赢得的比赛比分都太接近了。我们在这个比赛中的记录是三胜三负,我真的难以相信以我们这样好的素质竟然这样的不稳定。有时候CS太荒谬了,一个小失误就有可能毁了整场比赛,就像我们在准决赛中对阵PGS一样。

　　我们开局做CT拿下了手枪局,不过PGS放下了C4,所以他们决定在下一局起枪。这是一件你不经常做的事情,因为这很危险。无论如何,在疯狂的DE射击后他们拿下了这局,我们的金钱降到了$1500,在CS里这叫双ECO。

　　这让比分变为了1:3,PGS巩固了他们的经济。我想这次CT side我们毕竟可以拿下5-10分,不过我们T side的表现不够好,PGS再次击败了我们(第一次是在小组赛里)。

　　我想说的是,CS和其他运动一样,一些队伍很难去击败。我的意思是游戏中有一些很小的错误可以改变整个比赛。在我看来,长枪局依然是事关你在一张地图打得好与坏的重要部分

　　即使你有很妙的战术疯狂的瞄准和很好的感觉,你仍然可能会在这天输给一些平常不能击败你们的队伍。我并不是想抹去PGS和h2k的荣耀,他们在这个星期都击败了我们。

　　无论是作为选手还是队伍,我都非常尊敬他们,我也不想找什么借口。我的观点是——就算你准备的再好你也不可能拿下每场比赛。CS仍然是一个充满技术和奉献的游戏,不过每个月都有很多比赛,如果你想把战利品带回家,你必须在正确的时间赢得正确的比赛。

　　我仍然为身为fnatic的一员而感到骄傲。我们再一次的展现了自己,在天才选手们的努力训练和配合下,我们依然取得了前三的成绩,尽管我不能说我们打了一次好的比赛。

　　不管怎样,抱怨该结束了。该回去和队伍一起训练了。

　　07年将会排满比赛。我们将依然做到最好,希望今年可以比以前做得更好。

　　让今年成为我们赢得竞争的一年吧,即使幸运转盘在往反方向旋转,不计成败……

　　感谢所有支持我们的赞助商和fans

Sitting here on the train back home from a busy weekend at the CeBit Exhibition in Hannover Germany, and trying to recall what went wrong at the finals of ESL Masters finals.
Well, a third place is still a third place. But I don′t think anyone in the team are that happy about our game there. It felt like every decision I made ingame just went bad and the matches we won were abit too close.
The record from the tournament was 3 to 3 in wins versus losses, and I really believe we are too good to play this unstable.

Sometimes CS is so ridiculous close, that one minor step ingame can destroy the match, for example versus Pentagram(PGS) at the consolation final.
We opened up with a pistolround win as CT, though PGS got the bomb planted they decided to buy the following round. A thing you usually doesn′t do since its quite risky. Anyway, they managed to win this round after some crazy deagle shots and we went back to 1.5k$, which in CS terms means “double eco”.
This makes the game 1-3, and PGS have boosted their economy. I think this CT side ended up 5-10 after all and we didn′t managed to get our terrorist game together and PGS once more beat us(the first time was in groupstage).

What I am trying to say, CS and other sports too, can be so hard to beat. I mean there is so small moments in the game changing the whole match. Gunrounds is still in my opinion a too big part of the game when you are playing best of one map.
Even if you have awesome tactics, crazy aim and feeling comfortable with your game while practicising back home, you can still have a bad day loosing to teams that usually don′t beat you.

I don′t trying to steal some credit from PGS and h2k who beat us this weekend.
I truly respect them as players and team, and I dont want to make any excuses, my point is it′s just quite impossible to win every match you play even how well prepared you are.
CS is still a game of skill and dedication, but there are many tournaments and lots of matches played each month. If you want to bring home the trophies, you have to win the right match, at the right time.

In the end of the day(Sam quote), I′m still proud of be a part of fnatic. We once more showed, with our training and combination of awesome players it is possible to achieve a top 3 place, even though I can′t say we did a good tournament.

Anyway, the whining is over. Back to training with the team.
2007 will be full of tournaments. We will as always do our very best, and hopefully this year can be a even more succesful year than the previous.
Let this year be a year we beat the game, even if the wheel of fortune is spinning in opposite direction, against all odds. . . .

A big thanks to all that supports us, organization and fans.

Regards Patrik aka. cArn

我们在印度:)

Fnatic Team — 2007-2-7 10:50:04

　　大家好!我刚刚起床:)

　　昨天一大早泡了个温泉然后去了趟健身房,这里的早餐还不错:新鲜的桔子汁、奶蛋饼还有厨师精心烹调的煎蛋卷。对于我这样的懒蛋来说这么快就能吃到这样丰盛的早餐真爽。

　　早餐过后我们见到了Manish,他是来自Reliance World的随队官员,我们一同去了赛会进行了一些采访和一些表演赛。这里的所有人对我们都非常非常好,同时在这里可以说英语。昨天我们的日程上有一个环节是回答一些当地队伍的提问,他们提了一些关于比赛过程中的非常好的问题,同时还了解了我们的训练模式,不过我们还是尽力回答了他们的提问,如果有个图板可以配合讲解效果肯定会更好。希望他们对我们的答案还算满意。

　　在多米诺吃过pizza后我们略作休息,我们当中的一些人还没调整好时差所以晚餐前的两个小时睡眠就显得如此美妙。晚宴Reliance带我们去了一家印度餐馆,在那里我们尝到了正宗的印度菜,品味繁多。除我之外的几个人还尝了绿色的辣椒酱,看到ins、cArn以及f0rest被“烧焦”了的嘴让我不得不捧腹,我还一度略表怜悯,不过无论如何真得很有意思:)晚宴过后我们想和Manish一起出去找个夜总会,不过我们的车走错了方向,当我们到了酒吧的时候才发现这个地方有些奢华而且大都是一些大龄青年在喝威士忌,和我们的风格不大相符。酒吧1点关门我们就回了酒店,享受了一下笔记本带来的时光——看看连续剧、电影什么的。总的来说这个夜晚还算不错。

　　今天我们要和当地锦标赛的胜者打场比赛同时和MTV亚洲电视台做个专题,Manish将会带我们去另一个酒吧,不过说实在的我并不在乎酒吧档次如何,只要身处一个好队伍在哪都会很开心:)

　　祝你们都过得开心

Hey guys,

I just woke up here in New Delhi, India. Yesterday we went for some early morning “spa” and worked out some in the gym. The breakfast here is really good; fresh orange juice, waffles and a nice chef making custom omelets for you. For a lazy kid like me, it’s nice to eat a big breakfast once in a while. After breakfast and all that we met up with Manish – our guy here from Reliance World – and went to the event for a day with some interviews and show matches. Everybody here are really, really nice to us, and it feels really good to be able to communicate in English here. One of the things on our agenda yesterday was to answer questions from the local teams. We got super good questions about different scenarios in the game and our training regime, but even though we tried to answer the questions as good as we could, we would’ve probably done a better job with some whiteboard or something to illustrate what we were trying to say. I hope that the teams were happy with our answers anyway.

After some pizza from Dominos we went home for some well needed rest. Some of us were a bit jetlagged and it felt really good sleeping two hours before dinner. For dinner, Reliance took us to a really nice Indian restaurant, we’re we got a taste of the Indian kitchen and there were a lot of really nice flavors and an overall good time. Some of us (I didn’t) had some green chili and it was a blast see ins, cArn and f0rest getting their mouths set on fire. For a moment I almost felt a bit sorry for them, but overall it was great fun. After the dinner we went looking for a club together with Manish, but we ended up driving the wrong way and when we finally got to the club it was a bit too posh and sort of expensive with a lot of older guys with whiskey in their hands. Not really our cup of tea. The club closed at 01.00 so we went home and had some sexy time with our laptops and some series and movies instead. Overall it was really great night together with the team and the Reliance guys.

Today we’re going to play the winners of the tournaments and doing a feature with MTV Asia. Manish is going to take us to another club today, but frankly I don’t care that much if the club is good, as long as your in good company you will have a good time anyway.

All the best,

Harley

印度之行图片集二

[ins]大家好,这是我得第一篇

Fnatic Team — 2007-2-7 10:39:25

　　我的博客原本应该早就放出来的不过我一直没搞清楚,希望不会太坏!

　　各位好,我是Oskar “ins”,这是我在Fnatic的首篇blog,能加入像Fnatic这样的一支队伍感觉好极了,特别是能和几名队友住在同一个城市这样比赛之外,平时我们还能一起出去。话说回来由于今天Archi去了印度驻斯德哥尔摩使馆解决他的签证问题,哈哈,使馆的工作人员似乎不是很合作,我们也碰了几次钉子。还好现在我们都拿到了签证周四就可以去印度了。这样的活动很不错而且能去趟印度也是很好的经历因为我从来没去过那里。我听说那里的艳阳高照不像我们这里这么冷、这么大风。

　　昨天比赛我们打败了Pentagram,我不得不赞许Pentagram,无论是从战术角度还是技术角度来说他们都是一支出色的队伍。我们的开局不好,拼刀的失利决定了我们必须以T开局,在train上这可不大容易。cArn以他的出色表现帮助我们拿下了手枪局,随后我们在对手的eco局出了问题,taz的沙鹰让我和f0rest在试图进入B区时吃了当头一棒,不过其他人弥补了我们的过失拿下了这一局。第四局cArn再度发彪几次射下匪夷所思的AK爆头。我们以5-0遥遥领先,但此后Pentagram掌控了比赛,特别是Luq的AWP。我个人在上半场表现糟糕,这让我局促不安因为这是我在Fnatic的首场比赛,我极尽全力想展现出我的个人技术。6-9结束半场让我们对于比赛充满信心,我们再次拿下手枪局并很容易地领先对手。CT的半场我表现得不错,也拿下了几个关键局。15-13的时候我在B区的第一车道拿下了和Kuben的1v1。当时他布雷成功然后躲在了第五车道,当时考虑到有足够的时间去解雷所以我觉得完全可以尝试偷雷。他可能没想到我会在时间充裕的情况下蠢到直接解雷,于是我们赢了!能和Fnatic击败这样强大的对手当然令人兴奋,我不得不说我被Fnatic选手在比赛中的表现深深地打动了。

　　现在我正在为印度之行打包,也许会和dsn再玩玩死亡模式。希望我的blog没让你们昏昏欲睡:)

Note that this blog was supposed to be up earlier, but I had some problems getting it up. I hope it′s okay anyway!

Hello,

Oskar “ins” here, I’m writing my first of many blogs here on the Fnatic page.
I just got back from a restaurant in Gothenburg were I had dinner with dsn.
It feels great to be in a team like Fnatic with some nice players that lives in the same city as yourself so you can hang out even outside of the game.
Anyways, we didn’t have any practice today because Archi had to go to Stockholm for the day to fix his visa for India, haha. The guys at the Indian embassy in Stockholm were not so cooperative with us so we've had a hard time getting our visas. Now it seems like we all got them and heading for India on Thursday. It’s going to be great with a proper PR-tour and exciting to see India too, since I’ve never been over there. I’ve heard they got some nice sunny weather instead of the cold and windy weather we have to put up to here in Sweden.

It feels great that we beat Pentagram yesterday. I must give Pentagram some credit -they’re a really good team both tactical and skill wise. We didn’t start out very good. We lost the knife round so we had to start out as T on train, which isn’t the easiest of halves. Anyway we managed to win the pistol round after some clutch work from cArn. Then we had a hard time on the ecos, me and f0rest got smashed from taz deagle when we tried to enter bombspot B, but the guys made up for our mistake and took the round down. On the forth round cArn went crazy and did some incredible AK headshots. We were up 5-0, but then Pentagram took control and played really well, especially Luq with his awp. I played bad the first half and it was so annoying since it was my first game with Fnatic, and I wanted to show you guys my skills. After 6-9 as T we felt pretty confident that we could win the game. We won the pistol round and took an easy lead. I played better as CT and managed to win some clutch rounds. At the score 15-13 I ended up in a 1on1 situation against Kuben behind the b1 bomb train. He had planted the bomb and was hiding behind the 5th train. I thought since I had a lot of time to defuse I could just try to hold the defuse. He would never think that I would be so stupid to defuse all the way with such a time advantage. Anyways he didn’t call my bluff and we won! It felt great of course to beat such a strong team in my first game with Fnatic. I must say that I’m impressed with all the Fnatic players in the way they play during a match.

Now I’m going to go pack my bag for India and maybe play some CSDM with dsn.
Hope you didn’t get too bored with my blog.

今天是紧凑得一天

Fnatic Team — 2007-2-7 10:28:56

　　晚上好。

　　我刚在酒店的饭店里大吃了一顿,我要了一个大号的沙拉还有意大利面:)今天过得非常紧凑所以我想记录下来。

　　今天我像往常一样爬起床(希望你们也一样),时差还没完全倒过来,不过为了给一天的活动充电不得不冲向了即将关门的早餐铺。早餐过后,大家集合去了赛场其实就是一个展会,其中既有摇杆类的控制台游戏也有PC游戏,场内有众多的厂商力图宣传他们的产品。

　　在做了介绍之后我们接受了印度电视台的采访,说起来还挺难因为我的英语不是很好而且印度人说英语的方式理解起来有些费劲。采访过后组织者告诉我们接下来是一场表演赛对手是印度最好的队伍——A+E。今天的比赛是在de_inferno上进行的,在经历了我一个糟糕的开局后,我们最终16-9击败了他们。

　　比赛结束后,一天的安排也随之结束,我们也得以回到宾馆休息并享受晚餐。也许你们已经了解到了,这里的一切总的来说还是很不错的,来自Reliance World的人非常职业也非常友善,对此我们也很开心。

　　最后感谢你们读我的博客,希望你们在来年还能支持我还有我们的队伍,再会!

Good evening.

Just came up from a superb dinner in the hotel restaurant, I enjoyed a Caesar salad and pasta carbonara if you would like to know :).
I thought a great ending of this hectic day, would be to write a blog, so here you go, enjoy guys!

The day(see 26/1-07) started as usual for me and hopefully for you too, in a bed. I still felt jetlagged, but the breakfast buffet was closing so í ran down to fill up with some energy for the upcoming day.
After breakfast, we gathered up the team to move over to the venue, which is a gaming exhibition, for both consoles and PC, with loads of people and companies try to marketing their products.

After we had been introduced to this new enviroment we had some interviews with Indian televisions, a quite difficult task, since I′m not a master of the english and the indians way to speak english is seldom easy to understand.
The interviews went by and the arrangers told us that next on the agenda would be a showmatch versus the best team of India, A+E.
The map for today was de_inferno, and after a TERRIBLE! start from myself, we managed to beat them with comfortable 16-9.

When the match was over the arrangers called it quit for today, and we could go back to the hotel for some relaxing and dinner.

Anyway, as you already might understand, everything is nice over here. The people from Reliance World who brought us down here acting really professional, and friendly, so I couldn′t be more happy.

Thank you for reading this blog, hope you will continue support me and of course my team this upcomming year, see you soon.

祝大家新年快乐!

Hey. ^_^

　　我是一个正在试图赶上正常人生活的21岁的瑞典人,事实人我并不能像普通的瑞典人那样每周只工作四天。我选择了另外一种生活,旅行和比赛填满了我的整个生活,把CPL这样一个最为艰苦的比赛的冠军打包回家,我还能再奢求些什么呢?

　　满足现在应该是最能形容我心情的词。我们这一整年表现得都很好,但是却没能赢得一项主要赛事,在完成了训练之后我感觉这次该轮到我们了。

　　就像我前面说的,我已经回到了瑞典,见到了已经两个月没有见过的家人、朋友。(我们在参加WSVG和CPL之前集训了5个星期)家里没有太大的变化,只是有点冷,当然本周还有全瑞典最盛大的周末:圣诞假日。在瑞典,圣诞节通常都是和家人、亲友一起度过,一起吃饭,互赠礼物。可以告诉你的是我在圣诞节的前一天就拿到了所有礼物,因为那时我已经到家一天了。希望所有收到我的礼物的人都能开心。

　　2007年即将来临,新年正在向我们走来,那将是瑞典另一个盛大的周末,但是我们的庆祝活动却不够壮观,只是和朋友一起在外面喝喝酒、吃吃东西。

　　提到新年,让我想起我为Fnatic效力有一年了,以光速驶过的一年。感觉就跟昨天才加入他们一样,当然那不是事实。2006是我职业生涯中最棒的一年,和队伍一起度过了一段美好的时光。所以我想我必须借这个机会好好感谢一下我亲爱的队友和俱乐部,是他们给了我如此美好的一年。

　　在这篇blog的结尾,我还想说的是,非常感谢中国的fans,谢谢你们的支持,听到那儿有人在为我们庆祝感觉很好。 :)

　　又到结束的时候了,圣诞快乐&新年快乐,希望明年在中国能见到你们 :D

[Fnatic f0rest blog]游戏包围的日子

Fnatic Team — 2006-12-9 14:49:04

　　Hi 大家好,为了记录即将到来的美国之行和刚刚过去的几个月,我决定在这里写点东西。

　　在哥德堡的生活说白了其实非常简单,事实上,太简单了。在这里这么多周了我的生活就是游戏,我几乎是每天在下午3、4点起床,吃点东西然后打开我的电脑在主页上看看新闻。因为我不大热衷混pub所以随后会和Archi或者Dsn玩玩Quake 4或者去打几分钟CSDM(CS的死亡模式)热热手。吃完东西热完身通常时针已经指向了下午5点,也正是从这个时间我们会开始我们常规的比赛、讲战术。我们会以讨论那些可能会出问题的旧的战术来开始然后尝试解决那些问题,然后我们会一起看看DEMO并探讨一些新的战术并在紧接着的训练当中进行试验,训练赛一般在下午6、7点开始一直持续到11、12点。

　　然后训练的内容就结束了,我们会打打mix来完善下自己的个人技术。在那以后,放松自己成为我们的课题,通常我们会看大约1小时连续剧,然后就是全天最有趣的时刻——恐怖片!我和Archi 还有Tentpole已经似乎对此痴狂了!我们一晚上最多的时候看3部,至少也会看一部。

　　这大概就是我这几周的生活被游戏包围着。我们很快会飞赴美国,我感觉已经为WSVG总决赛和CPL冬季锦标赛做好了充分的准备。让我们拭目以待刻苦的训练是否奏效(我想会的),同时我也很期待能一览纽约的风景: 国家图书馆、帝国大厦、华人街(虽然我已经去过了中国但还是想领略一下这里的风采)等等。这样看来,美国之行是如此的令人期待!

　　最后,祝你们所有人好运!

Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg

Hello everyone,
im here to write a small blog about the upcoming trip to the United States and the previous month.

The life here in M?lndal, Gothenburg has been pretty simple, actually, to simple.
My weeks here has been all about gaming, i wake up around 3-4pm, get something to eat, walks over to the computer doing some reading on the usual homepages. After that i try to do some warmup (Quake4 vs.Archi/dsn) or maybe some CSDM for only a few min since I dont like playing public that much. When im done eating and doing my warmup the clock is usually 5pm which is the time we start doing the things that matters, tactics. We start things off by discussing our old tactics, what might go wrong and how to fix it after that we try to maybe watch some demos and come up with some new tactics which we're going to try at our practice games which usually starts at 6pm-7pm and goes on to 11-12pm.

After we're done with the training we try to play some mixes afterwards just to improve our individual skill.
When thats done, i try to relax maybe watch some series for an hour or something, after that the fun starts, horrormovies. Me, Archi and Tentpole is just watching horrormovies like crazy. We can watch up to 3 movies per night, minimum has been 1 movie. Thats basically how the weeks have been here,
all about gaming. We're about to leave to the United States, I feel really prepered going into WSVG Finals and CPL Winter 2006.

Lets see if the training pays off (which i think it will) and ofcourse im looking forward to some sightseeing in New York, Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, China town (all though i've been to china i wanna see it there too) and much more, I hope. As it looks now it seems to be a promising time there in the United States.

Will write a blog about our trip in the United States afterwards!

Wish us Good Luck!

Yours Truly, Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg.

Fnatic Team — 2006-11-28 9:08:50

读者朋友们你们好:

　　这周终于轮到我更新博客了,不胜荣幸啊。我现在正在始发于卡尔斯塔得开往歌德堡的列车上写这片博文,在歌德堡我将会和我亲爱的队友们汇合并进驻Fnatic公寓继续训练。

　　首先我还是延续前一篇的风格先来个自我介绍吧。我叫Patrik Sattermon,也许在CS圈cArn这个名字更为人所知:)我生于1985年今年21岁了,同时我也是队里最年长的,不过这也就意味着更大的责任:)正如我前面提到的卡尔斯塔得是瑞典最大的20个城市之一,人口约8万人,也许对中国的朋友们来说不算什么,但实际上在你们那里CS选手的数量甚至比整个瑞典人口还要多:)不过对我来说,这个小镇简直是完美无暇得,我生在这里,这里有我的亲友而且这里是如此的安详。

　　CS和游戏之外我的兴趣主要是在体育运动、旅游、和朋友散步以及其他一些日常生活上。游戏几乎将我以前为之所痴狂的足球失之殆尽,我现在也几乎不踢球了,事实上我现在甚至不怎么运动不过我还是尝试保持一周跑两次步。不过,尽管CS几乎让我和强劲的身体失之交臂但它给了我更多的机会周游世界、游历山河。能在车上领略崭新的地方和文化的感觉简直太好了。我们上一次的亚洲之行也许你还记得,那是今年的9月至10月,我们首先打了CPL新加坡站并以不败金身夺得桂冠:)在新加坡的一周让我深深地爱上了这个国家,优雅的环境和友善的人民,如此引人入胜,我真期望有天能故地重游……

　　新加坡之旅结束后我们去了成都打WSVG分站赛,我们在比赛中表现不佳最终只获得了第五名:(也许是我们低估了一些我们所遇到的队伍,比赛本可以令人兴奋不已一旦作为唯一一支国外战队的我们夺标的话,但也许07年有足够的比赛可以让我们证明自己!从成都飞往北京参加KODE 5总决赛的我们渴望着在成都的失利之后可以复仇,但很可惜我们再次败给了我们的同乡——NIP,以一个5~8名结束了我们的征程。

　　虽然成绩不佳但亚洲留给我的回忆还是美好的,游戏之外我们过得不错。在北京游历了长城、在成都也看了大熊猫,不过人在旅途3周之后再次踏上瑞典的国土感觉还是很好的,吃着瑞典食物说着瑞典语,当然还有就是再次见到我的朋友和家人:)

　　你们应该已经知道我们下一项比赛会是12月在纽约的WSVG总决赛,为了能以最佳状态出赛我们决定一起租一个房子并进行LAN训练。所以现在我和队友坐在歌德堡外的屋子里,进行着高负荷的团队和个人训练。预测结果很难,不过我觉得我们有能力在美国一展伸手。
　
　　这次大概就说到这里,我想借此机会感谢我在中国时你们对队伍的支持,在你们国家比赛的感觉太好了!最后我想向所有我在中国认识的朋友打个招呼!zai jian。

* Wonderbase 外传:

　　关于比赛有件事情很有意思,那就是我们的小朋友哈里(dsn)把他的戴尔笔记本电脑忘在了家里,不过这对于他来说可以说是司空见惯的,在过去的三个月中,他丢了:

一个耳机
一打Boxer牌子的内裤(在法兰克福机场)
一个装满他衣服的大袋子(阿兰德机场)
在青岛的出租车上丢的一个数码相机

　　此外,他还曾经把一袋自己的衣服当成垃圾扔进了垃圾桶。可以说出了“失忆”他人还是很好的:)Wonderbase 的Admin还是慷慨地把他们的机器借给了哈里:)

cArn's Blog for Cs.cga.com.cn

Ni hao all readers.
So this weeks its my turn to write a fnatic blog on your site, what an honour.
My current location when im writing this blog is at a train between my homecity Karlstad and Gothenburg, there I will meet up with my dear teammates for further praccticing in our fnatic flat.

I follow the previously bloggers and start with a small introduction.
My name is Patrik Sattermon, probably more known as cArn in the cs community :)
I'm 21 years old , born 1985. Which makes me the oldest guy in the clan, a huge responsibility in other words :)
As I told earlier im from the city Karlstad, one o the 20ths biggest city in Sweden with approximitly 80 000 citizen, a population size which probably not make a big impressions for you guys over in China, in fact you got more CS players than the whole Swedish population :)
But for me this town is perfect, its here where im born and have all friends and relatives and it's a really peaceful place to be.

Outside CS and the gaming my others intrests are sports, travelling, hanging out with friends and other regular stuffs.
The gaming has pretty much taken over my previously big passion soccer, and I dont play it very often anymore, in fact im not a very physical person at the moment, but I try to do running excercises 2 times a week.
Despite that CS has ruin my physical strenghth :D it has given me the opportunity to travel all over the world and see so many places. Its the best feeling in the world to be on the road and see new places and cultures.

Our last trip as you probably know was our Asia trip in September and October, first we were to Singapore for the CPL stop, which we managed to win undefeated :)
We stayed in Singapore for about an week, and i totally fell in love with that country.
Very nice enviroment and friendly people, so much to see and do. Im really hope I can go back there someday....

After Singapore we headed for Chengdu and the WSVG stop, our performance at that tournament was not good at all, just ended up 5th place :(
Maybe we underestimate some of the teams we met and that is really sad, cause it would be awesome to win a event such as that since we were the only foreign team, but hopefully there will be lots of tournaments in 2007 we can show our best sides.

From Chengdu we fly to Beijing for Kode5 finals, hungry for revenge after the failure in Chengdu we get us into the playoffs but sadly was eliminated from the tournament from our landsmen NiP, ended up 5-8 place.
Despite we didn磘 performed too well in Asia i will remember it with joy. Outside the games we had a lovely time. Did so many funny things like visiting the great wall and the giant pandas in Chengdu. But of course it felt good to go back to Sweden after 3 weeks on the road, eat the swedish food, and use the swedish language. And of course see all my friends and family :)

As you probably know our next event will be WSVG finals New York in December, and to be able to be in good shape during this we decided to move to a flat together for LAN practice.
So now im sitting here with my team, in a flat outside Gothenburg, playing loads both as team and invidually.
It磗 always hard to predict results, but I really think we can do very well in USA.

Well thats probably it for this time, i want to thank for all support we've got during our stay in China, its just awesome to play in your country. And at last, i would like to say hi to all i met in China, love and respect! see you soon.

* Wonderbase:
A funny thing about this tournamet was that our little friend Harley(dsn) forgot to bring his Dell XPS (laptop), and its just typical behavour from this guy to forgot stuffs. So far the last three months he has lost:
- One cellphone
- A bunch of boxer shorts at the Frankfurt airport
- A big bag with all his clothes, at a gate Arlanda Airport
- A digital camera in a Taxi in Qingdao
He also manage to throw away a bag of clothes in the garabage in his home.

Well, except for his lack of memory , he is a good guy afterall :) And the admins at Wonderbase were so friendly they let one of their own PCs to Harley :)
