尋夢新聞LINE@每日推播熱門推薦文章,趣聞不漏接❤️
大家好,我是Otso。目前為止,大陸國內的KF比賽已經舉辦了不少,形式上除了日常的枷鎖約束賽和周常現開賽以外,還舉辦了店級冠軍賽、高階冠軍賽和各種展會上的特別賽。在不久的將來,全國的十場區域賽也即將打響,甚至我們還看到了國內秘庫巡回賽的一絲絲曙光。
而在即將到來的2020年,新的賽事——秘庫勇士賽即將打響。這個公布於2019年9月底的全新賽事分為三個階段:第一級是秘庫勇士選拔賽(VaultWarrior Tryout, VWT),目的是通過海選遴選出優勝者參加第二級比賽;第二級是秘庫勇士資格賽(VaultWarrior Qualifiers, VWQ),在全球的數個賽點中分別遴選出32強,參加第三級的世界大賽;第三季比賽是秘庫勇士冠軍賽(VaultWarrior Championship),來自全球各地的玩家們爭奪秘庫勇士冠軍,並瓜分10萬美金的獎池。這三級比賽中,VWT早已向所有授權店家開放申請。由於官方承諾VWT將會發放獨一無二的獎品,因此就算沒有任何玩家願意參加第二級的VWQ,其意義也相當於每年一次特別的店級冠軍賽;由於獎品稀有且並非所有申請店家都能獲得主辦權,其意義實際上是明顯大於一場店級賽的。
不過申請VWT的主要困難在於,申請表極其繁瑣難填,很多個問題甚至需要申請者寫一篇小作文出來。不僅僅是英語水平相對薄弱的大陸,就算是以英語為母語的國家也沒有多少人有耐心去申請這個比賽。因此目前,國內外申請比賽的店家實際上遠沒有達到FFG自己的預期。不過鑒於比賽的獎品很值得期待,個人還是建議全國各大店家都能夠申請這個比賽。如果您是牌手,但具有自信的英語寫作水平,也請您協助當地的店家申請。下面我將逐條地對表格內容進行解釋,希望能對英語有一定困難的店家有所幫助。以下英文內容摘自申請表,中文內容為我添加的註釋。需要注意的是,表格的所有內容均為必填項,且全程需要英文作答。
(ps: 作為比賽的舉辦者,我在新聞剛發布時就第一時間填完了表格,大約花費了一個下午,當然所有問題都給出了詳盡的回答,相當於寫了好幾篇小作文;這篇指南早在那時就有計劃,當時的想法是自己申請成功了再寫;未曾想到申請發出後至今石沉大海,後來才聽聞至今沒有任何人收到批復的消息,emmmm……)
