Chapter 104

~14 min read 2,725 words

kaze arrived at the battle room early as usual.

For him, being at Tyloo was like going to work; every day was training, watching tactics, playing matches, and finally getting off work to go home.

To some extent, it was quite suitable for a player like him who had no waves.

Day after day, year after year in such a big club.

This should be the way of working he longed for when he first entered the profession: stable and guaranteed.

But for some reason, he felt something was missing, until the usual playfulness appeared in his mind.

Perhaps he ———— would never forget VG in his life. "Let me go, if I lose, chop off my hand!"

As soon as he entered the door, kaze heard Freeman's roar; opposite him was Captain BnTeT.

BnTeT looked like he didn't want to listen: "Not to mention whether the management agreed, I couldn't allow a player who hasn't integrated to play."

"How can we integrate without playing?!" Freeman's face was red; it seemed he had been arguing with BnTeT for a long time.

Seeing kaze enter the door, BnTeT's impatient expression converged a lot.

He used to be the first to arrive at the battle room in Tyloo; ever since kaze came, he became the second.

If it weren't for Freeman chatting with him privately this time, he wouldn't have known that kaze had always arrived nearly an hour early.

This attitude was much better than those few who came on time like somebody!

How should he say it? Worthy of being the number one Sniper in Asia, heaven rewards diligence!

kaze greeted them and flashed to the side to start warm-up practice.

He wasn't actually the kind of Sniper who ate hand-feel and didn't need to warm up too early; he just didn't want to participate in Freeman's mess at this time.

"kaze and I both know VG very well; with us playing, we can definitely eat the Qiyou Trio steadily!"

Freeman knew BnTeT's favor for kaze, so he added arguments.

kaze frowned; he knew advent very well, but advent also knew him.

Adding Freeman temporarily wasn't a good choice; on one hand, the team hadn't trained or integrated, and on the other hand, it would make advent know the new Tyloo better.

BnTeT had few tactics, but he wasn't a fool, so he wouldn't agree no matter what.

Freeman clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and left the battle room without a word.

ESL One: Cologne 2019 Asian Qualifier Final, VG vs Tyloo, B05.

Because VG was the winner's bracket champion, they directly led by one map.

This was also the reason why these few people in VG were so relaxed yesterday; this leading map was roughly equivalent to having an extra ban, not just a small point.

First round, Tyloo avoided DUST2, which VG won yesterday, and chose Mirage.

T: BnTeT, kaze, somebody, Summer, Attacker

CT: advent, Ori, aumaN, zhokiNg, JamYoung

Before the personnel finished loading, Jiao Yang in warm-up mode started his tactics — 【Ori: Tyloo. Freeman, why haven't you stepped down yet?】

【Ori: Not playing even in the finals, is this hiding tactics?】

As soon as aumaN saw Jiao Yang start a group, he immediately jumped in.

【aumaN: Won't you still be standing behind your teammates and not dare to step down?】

【JamYoung: You guys are too much, Freeman can also sit down.】

【Ori: Freeman, sit down!】

【aumaN: Forgot, he can only sit on the Coach's cold bench.】

As the Coach, Freeman could clearly see the information in the chat box.

At this time, his blood pressure had exploded, wishing he could directly play and beat these few people up.

BnTeT didn't have any thoughts of ignoring this verbal attack; just as they said, Freeman wouldn't play, so what was the use of attacking his mentality?

【advent: kaze, GL.】

?

BnTeT turned his head in confusion, saw kaze's face was as usual, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The pistol round officially started.

On Tyloo's side, kaze bought a smoke grenade and an incendiary grenade; BnTeT bought a smoke grenade and two flash grenades.

"Arch smoke given, rush."

1:45, BnTeT stood on the A1 platform and handed over a smoke grenade; this smoke grenade directly signaled a B-pinch.

kaze in Middle gave the VIP fire, cooperating with BnTeT's flash from far away, Tyloo attacked from B Small.

However, the moment kaze pulled the bolt of the smoke grenade, advent rushed out from B Small, and Jiao Yang forcefully stepped on the fire to support advent from VIP.

【advent used USP to kill kaze】

The smoke grenade exploded in place, and Tyloo was caught off guard.

【Ori used P2000 to headshot kill somebody】

【Ori used P2000 to headshot kill Attacker】

【Ori died to kaze's incendiary grenade】

【BnTeT used Glock to headshot kill advent】

BnTeT arrived in time and finally re-fragged; unfortunately, JamYoung had also rushed out of the Arch long ago. Even if the hard-gunning Commander reacted quickly, he was armorless and was clicked to death in a few shots.

【JamYoung used USP to kill BnTeT】

"The last one is at B Second Floor." advent gave the information directly; when he pulled out, Summer at the second floor had exposed his footsteps long ago to speed up.

The response to him wasn't a teammate, but the chat box message in the bottom left corner.

【Ori: Summer, look behind you ————】

?

On the other side, Summer stopped his steps instantly, but he didn't look back, retreating while holding the front point tightly.

Until ensuring the opponent didn't catch his TIMING, and it was safe to look back, he slid the mouse.

A blood-red claw knife stabbed over; he hurriedly fired.

Unfortunately, within seven steps, although the gun was fast, it wasn't as accurate as the knife.

【aumaN used melee weapon to kill Summer】

"Haha, Jiao Yang still understands me." aumaN laughed loudly as his plan succeeded.

"You dare to circle, you really have no discipline!" Winning a small round, advent high-fived aumaN hard; scolding was scolding, but they still had to celebrate when they should.

This round was originally CT focusing on A and clearing A, but Tyloo threw a smoke, and VG immediately knew they were going to play B.

Normally, CT at A should be like JamYoung or zhokiNg, either reinforcing B or pulling smoke at Arch to forcefully re-frag.

As a result, aumaN directly took the back road.

If Jiao Yang hadn't stepped on the fire and clicked two more, then BnTeT wouldn't have needed to go to the front, and could have focused on cutting off the back.

At that time, B site would be out of control, aumaN would be robbed, and this round would be ominous.

"Isn't this because I trust Jiao Yang? Just tell me if I stole it or not! Jiao Yang, the Sniper is yours."

aumaN took the extra 1500 dollars and directly acted as the number one donor, sending the Dragon Lore to Jiao Yang's hand.

At this, advent couldn't say anything; he knew what this Sniper meant.

After the ECO round of the second round was taken without suspense, BnTeT, who learned the opponent had a Sniper, considered it and still wanted to try five AKs with a small amount of props.

So they tried and died; Jiao Yang's big Sniper was like entering no man's land, relying on 【w0nderfuI's stable firing】 which had just risen to level 6, exerting indescribable stability.

The simple guns holding angles didn't miss; this directly told BnTeT that without an offensive Sniper, without pre-aiming, without matching props, don't even think about challenging the place where Jiao Yang's big Sniper was.

Helpless, Tyloo E'd again, and the score went directly to 0:4.

Fifth round, kaze finally got his big Sniper.

This time BnTeT learned to be smart, a fast smoke sealed VIP, flash pulled out, fire burned the Arch, and kaze held it tightly, eliminating any chance for CT to control Middle.

BnTeT gained control of Middle for the first time in this game, so naturally, he had to make an article on it.

Continued with a VIP smoke grenade, BnTeT thought for a while: "Give Arch smoke!"

"Okay, we play B?" somebody immediately handed it over and prepared to go to B Small.

"No, we play A."

?

kaze was a bit puzzled; this was not the same as what he played at VG, why play A after handing over Arch smoke?

But the Captain spoke, there was no reason not to listen; the two Terrorists at B Second Floor retreated, and the five touched the Arch.

somebody grasped the time of the smoke grenade very well; as soon as the smoke dissipated, he sensitively sensed JamYoung

holding the Arch.

AK bullets poured out, da-da-da —

【somebody used AK-47 to headshot kill JamYoung】

"I'll control VIP." After killing the person, somebody rushed toward VIP, preparing to watch the Dog Hole.

Bang!

【Ori used AWP to headshot kill somebody】

"Big Sniper at the Supermarket door!"

Summer immediately followed to re-frag.

【Ori used AWP to headshot kill Summer】

Buy one get one free.

At the same time, others at A site were also surrounded; even if kaze held one point tightly, VG still had gun lines from multiple directions.

He knew this round was gone.

aumaN pulled out from B Small, opened the scope, and the AUG, called noobgun by Niko, began to show its power.

【aumaN used AUG to kill BnTeT】

First, he clicked to death BnTeT who was holding B Small, then immediately aimed at kaze who was turning his head.

【aumaN used AUG to kill kaze】

As for the Attacker who touched into the bomb site, he would never have thought that advent had already been waiting at the Police Base.

【advent used M4A4 to kill Attacker】

The timeout time was up; this time it was called by Freeman. He wouldn't let go of the opportunity to count BnTeT's mistakes.

"Why play A?!"

BnTeT was a bit annoyed by this timeout; he thought Freeman was going to tell him some tactics to restrain VG, but he didn't expect him to come to question him.

"Our props are used up!"

Originally, buying a big Sniper for kaze cost a lot of money, and they handed over too many props when targeting Jiao Yang; in the words of European CS, this was a problem with prop management.

Continuing VIP, they only had one smoke grenade left in their hands; if they played B, this smoke grenade would also be handed over to the Arch, so why not go the opposite way and play A the moment the smoke dissipated?

This exposed the randomness of BnTeT's tactics, always making decisions by patting his head.

This playstyle was very common in Asian CS; props were thrown according to the formula, and then they found a point they felt had fewer people and hit it to death.

As long as the marksmanship was accurate enough, or they bet right, then the round was taken.

"Then we should have played B instead of surrendering to the Police Base!" Freeman spoke without leaving any face.

Unfortunately, what he said was the truth; except for aumaN at B Small, even advent, who was the main defense at B area, was already waiting at A site; this was clearly a heavy-A Police Base.

BnTeT had nothing to say; he bet wrong, that was all.

For a time, Tyloo's atmosphere was depressed.

As for VG here — after aumaN's AUG made the final decision, teammates sent praise: "Nice, AUG God!"

The last time Jiao Yang called this nickname was when he first met aumaN; it was evident how long he had been slacking off.

"I think this gun is really suitable for you." An Wenxin gave her thoughts from the Coach's perspective.

Ever since she checked that the AUG usage rate of various teams ranked second only to the AK47 in IEM Sydney while organizing data, she had been strongly recommending others in the team to try this gun.

Unfortunately, JamYoung and zhokiNg, two people who liked hard-gunning, looked down on this soft noobgun, and advent was a Commander who wasn't used to using such a good gun.

As for Jiao Yang, he didn't mind, but as long as he could get a Sniper, no matter if the round was won or lost, he could always save the big Sniper.

So much so that not wiping out Jiao Yang's gun became a consensus for other teams, because the effort always outweighed the gain, so Jiao Yang was better at saving the big Sniper.

Thus, there was only one object left in the team that could be promoted, and that was aumaN.

Even so, aumaN started with the words "My marksmanship is very fierce, I don't need to spend more money."

An Wenxin saw through that this guy just didn't want to eat the economy and take responsibility, directly hooking aumaN with the words "If you don't hit with the AUG, it's my fault."

With someone to take the blame, aumaN started to act recklessly.

Gradually, he started to get used to the AUG.

noobgun? What noobgun?

I can kill you with a noobgun, which means you are the noob! Otherwise, why don't you use it to kill me?

"Speaking of reason, if you can play the AUG clearly, why not try the 553?" Jiao Yang gave a suggestion.

An Wenxin's eyes lit up, and she realized: "Oh right! I can kill people with the 553, aumaN must be stronger than me!"

She flipped out the "data brick," yes, you read that right, the data she organized was now as thick as a brick.

October 10, 2018, with the price of the AUG decreasing, the SG553 also decreased; since the AUG had returned to 3300 yuan and could still defeat the M4 family in IEM Sydney.

Then why shouldn't the unreturned 553 be valued by everyone?

Could it be because the masters in history had always been proud of the AK and looked down on the guns that noobs liked?

But were there few cases of professional players underestimating ordinary players' ideas and being defeated by opponents who learned humbly?

"aumaN, you buy the 553 when you are T; anyway, it's only 50 more than the AK, just treat it as buying a decoy grenade." advent saw An Wenxin so excited and gave the order directly; after all, this girl's intuition was very accurate.

"You are the damn decoy grenade; I'll treat the 553 as a fully automatic big Sniper later." aumaN complained and accepted it; he wasn't afraid of being scolded as bad, only afraid of being kicked, and the second-generation Coach, who was also rumored to be the boss's relative, was holding his life gate at this time.

"Oh? A fully automatic big Sniper?" Jiao Yang was thoughtful.

For the remaining time, advent started talking about the tactical details that followed.

The timeout time flew away like sand in a leak, but it was worth mentioning that this was four timeouts.

Yes, Jiao Yang directly let An Wenxin continue three timeouts for Tyloo.

On one hand, it was because they had been discussing guns just now and didn't seriously consider how to counter the tactics the opponent might temporarily adjust; on the other hand, of course, Jiao Yang wanted to see Freeman's "ability" as a Coach; this was also the purpose of his mockery before the match.

He had 【jL's performance personality】, which could amplify the contradictions between the two sides, thereby affecting emotions.

It wasn't hard to imagine what Freeman, who couldn't play, thought of their 5:0 score against Tyloo now.

Seeing the opponent call a timeout, the atmosphere in Tyloo's battle room remained dull, lasting until the second timeout VG continued: "What's going on, why is the opponent still calling timeouts?" somebody also didn't want the team atmosphere to be so stiff and stood up to resolve the situation.

"Don't know, maybe they are talking about some tactics? Boss, what should we do?" Summer asked BnTeT.

BnTeT looked directly at Freeman, meaning you are so good at tactics, come teach us?

Where had Freeman, who was sitting on the cold bench, prepared any tactics? But he didn't intend to shrink his shell.

——

Thus, Freeman started speaking like a real Coach ————
