"Wait a minute, I think there's something wrong here."

Ye Fei's voice wasn't loud, but it sounded exceptionally clear in the already quiet lecture room.

The coach on the stage paused for a moment, the laser pointer hovering in mid-air.

The students in the audience all turned around and their eyes fell on the unfamiliar young man standing in the last row.

He and the person next to him stood at the back without seats, seemingly just there for a visit.

The receptionist's expression changed, and she quickly stepped forward, lowering her voice to say to the coach, "Coach Wang, I'm sorry, these two are Mr. Li's guests, here for a visit."

After saying that, she immediately turned to Ye Fei and the chef, and gestured to them as if to say, "Why don't we go and look around somewhere else first?"

The coach put down the laser pointer, waved his hand, and still had the calm smile on his face.

"It's alright, no need." He looked at Ye Fei, his tone polite and restrained.

"Since this friend has a different opinion, it's good to share it so we can all discuss it. We'd also like to hear different perspectives."

The receptionist gave a look, shut her mouth, and stepped aside without saying anything more.

Ye Fei didn't move, his gaze fixed on the screen.

"You just said that this player chose 'Calm Mind' to achieve what you call 'Balanced Puck Construction' and supplement the puck's defense?"

"Yes." The coach smiled calmly.

"This is the conclusion reached by our coaching staff through joint analysis. Do you see any problems with it?"

"However, over 70% of his deck consists of cards that generate Electric Balls, while Shadow Ball and Ice Ball are relatively rare."

Ye Fei continued, "This doesn't seem like building a balanced sphere; it's more like focusing on one type of sphere, isn't it?"

"And those few Shadow Balls and Glass Balls seem to be nothing more than a helpless choice during the early stages of the game."

The room fell silent for a few seconds. The students who had been looking at the instructors in the front all turned to look at the back.

The coach's eyes showed a subtle change, but his smile remained unchanged.

He picked up the laser pointer, tapped the screen, and froze the image on the deck interface.

"My friend, what you're saying... is just your subjective understanding."

"Indeed, if you look at the decks alone, the proportion of Electro Ball is too prominent, while the proportion of Shadow Ball and Glass Ball is relatively small."

"But it's also possible that he didn't draw the cards that generate the corresponding two types of balls in the early game, and the number of cards that generate these two types of balls is relatively small in the entire Faulty Robot deck."

"Furthermore, different people may have different understandings of the same deck, which is normal. We certainly welcome different voices."

"What are you trying to say?"

Ye Fei paused, then his tone became even more direct:

"What I want to say is that your teaching just now was just a forced interpretation of this player's operation. You were just using their actual gameplay videos to express your own understanding, and it was not the player's real thoughts at all."

At this point, the trainees below the stage all looked doubtful and exchanged glances. The chef realized something was wrong and gave Ye Fei a look, signaling him to stop talking.

Ye Fei pretended not to see it.

The coach's facial muscles twitched involuntarily; his smile remained, but it became slightly stiffer.

"Forced interpretation? In other words, you think our understanding is incorrect?"

"Our teaching materials and courseware are the result of joint discussions among our coaching team members. Only high-win-rate conclusions drawn from the experience of generations of professional players will be used to teach our students."

"Since you think our approach is wrong, fine, you can tell me your thoughts."

The chef's heart skipped a beat.

He knew perfectly well that the person his older brother was arguing with was none other than the core coach of this e-sports academy, the "lead lecturer" of the "Faulty Robots" course.

To argue with him is to disregard all the coaches in the school, and all of them are retired professional players!

If his older brother really had ideas, could his understanding be deeper than that of a professional player? He didn't stop him, but looked at Ye Fei with concern.

Ye Fei was indeed deep in thought. After a while, he rested his chin on his hand and said:

"From a strategy perspective, his deck composition is actually quite comprehensive: it has cost-increasing cards, high-quality defense, endgame decks, and a ceiling..."

"However, there's one thing missing: card draw!"

"Look at his deck. It's obvious that he didn't draw a single decent card draw. High-quality card draws like 'Quick Search' and 'Overclock' are highly sought after, and they're not common in bot decks. There's almost no reason not to pick them."

"This means that he definitely didn't encounter a single good card draw in the early stages. For a faulty robot, without card draw, even the highest quality deck can't survive."

"It is very dangerous to have no card draw when you are close to the end of the second stage, especially when there are elites blocking the way. If you draw bad cards, even the highest quality deck will be useless."

"This player obviously realized this, so he had no choice but to choose this poor card draw as a temporary solution."

The coach's brow twitched slightly.

He listened to the man using unfamiliar terms such as "portization," "terminal," and "positioning," his face full of question marks, unable to tell whether he was serious or just talking nonsense.

It turns out that many concepts in this world are different from those in Ye Fei's world.

Their "grab" is not called "grab", but "priority", and there is no distinction between "terminal" and other outputs, all are uniformly called "output".

The concept of "portization" doesn't even exist, so there's no corresponding term for it.

"And, I guess..." Ye Fei continued:

"If he doesn't draw another high-quality draw card, he'll definitely play 'Calm Mind' again!"

The lecture room fell completely silent.

The coach's fingers gripping the laser pointer suddenly tightened. He looked at Ye Fei, then seemed to realize something, and the smile on his face vanished instantly.

This person is not "exchanging views".

It's blatant sabotage!

He said "will definitely knock" – not "may knock", not "should knock according to a certain line of thought".

It definitely will!

It's like stating a fact that he already knows the answer to.

Because he knew that in the video segment that the coaching staff unanimously agreed to cut...

—That player actually played that card!

This was also a mystery that puzzled the entire coaching staff for a whole month!

Coach Wang remained silent for a few seconds.

He recalled the scene when the coaching staff repeatedly discussed the video:

The Korean athlete did indeed use this "calm mind" technique in the later matches. Their dozen or so coaches debated this for a long time without reaching a conclusion.

According to the mainstream understanding in China, if you're going to discard cards, you should save them for the higher-priority "Darkness" to significantly increase your output potential.

Alternatively, saving it for the cost-increasing card "Supercritical State" is also a good option, as it adds a full two mana.

This player, however, chose the "Calm Mind" card, which only allowed them to draw one more card, leaving them puzzled for a month without any clue.

In the end, the consensus was that it was either a mistake by the player or some personal habit that they couldn't understand.

So they cut that part out and didn't include it in the classroom teaching video.

But if we say it's a supplement to "card-drawing techniques," then everything seems to make sense.

The coach took a deep breath, glared at Ye Fei, and his tone became anything but polite:

"Who are you?"
