Chapter 99

ESL Cologne Asian Qualifier, Winner's Bracket Final, MVP vs VG.

Unlike the past, this time VG's thinking on bans and picks was very strange. Any tactical map that advent preferred in the past was banned, and they didn't even care about Nuke, ignoring it directly.

They chose Dust2, a map of marksmanship they wouldn't normally choose.

HSK couldn't figure out what advent meant for a while; could it be that the new VG was very confident in their hard strength?

Since that was the case, he directly chose Overpass, which had the most hope last time, hoping to wash away the shame.

Finally, they left Inferno, a map that emphasized both marksmanship and tactics, as map three.

Both sides officially entered the match server.

T: advent (Captain), Ori, aumaN, zhokiNg, JamYoung

CT: HSK (Captain), sta, zeff, XigN, eta

Warm-up mode, HSK only heard the sound of a big Sniper coming from the T-side base, but there wasn't a single kill notification in the top right corner.

"What's the situation? XigN, go take a look."

"Reporting Captain, Ori is firing wildly into the air." XigN passed by Middle and saw the big Sniper in the T-side base fire three shots without hitting anything, but he kept firing.

"The opponent is feigning weakness; don't save the Middle smoke next." It had to be said that these Asian Commanders were quite familiar with The Art of War; HSK warned: "Next, pay more attention to the opponent's big Sniper's movements; tell me immediately if there's any change!"

The reason was simple: VG's Ori was the only one in this match who was hard to predict; the last time they met, they didn't even force out his upper limit.

"Understood!" After achieving good results in IEM Sydney, MVP's players were even more convinced by this Captain who brought new playstyles.

On the other side, Jiao Yang revealed a smile after a long time; his luck was good today.

As the game loaded, small characters slowly emerged before his eyes —

【Major Talent System activated】

【Training Mode enabled】

【Drawing task ————】

【D-level: Kills exceed 10】

【A-level: Win this game】

【SSS-level: Kill an enemy within 5 seconds after missing 9 shots with the big Sniper】

【Host can choose one of the tasks; receive corresponding rewards after completion】

Looking at the tasks, Jiao Yang immediately put away his smile. Was winning this game actually an A-level difficulty task?

He pretended to glance at JamYoung casually, feeling a bit worried.

According to the tactics advent arranged, JamYoung was still the Entry Fragger. Since the opponent was so strong, the pressure JamYoung had to face was even greater.

Jiao Yang remembered Sanye, who was made to cry by him at 8EASY, and calculated how to do psychological counseling.

As for the task? Without a doubt, he chose the SSS-level directly.

Missing 9 shots with the big Sniper before killing should refer to showing off marksmanship like a ladder player, ejecting bullets until the last one to kill the opponent; it was just a bit difficult within 5 seconds.

As soon as Jiao Yang entered warm-up mode, he started firing wildly, estimating the limit time for missing nine shots.

It was about 12 seconds, and firing the tenth shot was 14 seconds.

At the start, CT passing the Police Base would take at least 10 seconds, so it was almost impossible to achieve by holding Middle.

Jiao Yang put the task aside for now; the pistol round started.

"Established tactics, Jiao Yang takes the bomb to B, we harass A Small."

Right from the start, advent boldly used unconventional tactics.

Letting the bomb carrier go alone required great trust, yet VG never lacked trust.

After issuing the P250, advent bought smoke and flash, and went to A Small with his companions to fake an attack.

JamYoung pulled out of cover under the cover of his teammates; HSK didn't linger, got the information, and jumped to the Police Base directly.

"The observer jumped to the Police Base!" JamYoung shouted.

Generally speaking, in this situation, the Terrorists had already gained some advantage at A Small; if they were confident in their marksmanship, they could just rush out, but advent chose to execute according to the original plan.

An A Small crossing smoke was given.

"Wait for me to flash." It was a trained tactic, but advent still reminded him; he was too afraid of JamYoung getting carried away.

With just this sentence, JamYoung stopped his steps toward the CT at the bomb site.

And the moment HSK jumped down to the Police Base, MVP's personnel positioning changed; zeff, who was originally responsible for B-site coordination, leaned more toward Middle.

A flash, JamYoung swung out of the crossing smoke.

Da~

【eta used USP to headshot kill JamYoung】

"Slope head position! Dodged the flash and pulled, there are teammates nearby!"

zhokiNg followed and pulled out, but his vision was all white.

【XigN used USP to kill zhokiNg (HSK flash assist)】

"Can't hear the silencer clearly, should be A Large, the flash trajectory is from the Police Base."

Two kills, MVP had a 5v3 advantage in a minute and a half.

However, a gasp came from MVP's voice channel —

"The bomb carrier is at B!"

【Ori used P250 to headshot kill sta】

"What?" HSK immediately changed the gun line holding A platform, aiming at B door.

A flash, a yellow figure.

【Ori used P250 to headshot kill zeff】

zeff, who tried to reinforce, was taken down as well.

"Xiba!"

HSK didn't care about his teammates' complaints and immediately called the two teammates at A to reinforce from the small path; at that time, they could also choose to go through B-tong to crossfire.

He himself held Middle tightly to prevent aumaN and advent from sneaking in from Middle.

Da-da-da, gunfire came from A platform.

"advent is swinging to harass." XigN pulled out and fired wildly.

But advent was too slippery; he swung twice and stopped, and as soon as the gunfire stopped, he pulled out again.

【eta used USP to kill advent】

"There's still an aumaN, did he go back?"

Soon, they knew the answer.

【aumaN used Glock to headshot kill XigN】

"Recess!"

aumaN hid like an ostrich the whole time until advent called him out.

【eta used USP to kill aumaN】

In the final 2v1 clutch, HSK didn't take it lightly at all, just because the remaining ID was Ori.

HSK didn't hold Middle anymore, but he also shrank back, not giving Jiao Yang a chance to make it 1v1.

"Go through Middle, together, I'll search, you shoot."

He only knew how to handle the clutch in this most reasonable and steady way now, even if it might just be fighting wits with the air.

The sound of the C4 became slightly urgent, but there was still enough time for the two to gather and play a 2v1.

"Should be at the bomb site, I don't have armor, I'll go first, you come to re-frag."

As the Commander, HSK bought a defuser and two flashes; the flashes had already been used at A, but the defuser was still very critical.

"OK, I'm going."

【Ori used P250 to headshot kill eta】

【Ori used P250 to headshot kill HSK】

!

Didn't give HSK a chance at the bomb site at all; the round ended.

"How is that possible?" HSK was so scared he shuddered, and the computer screen shook along with him.

He hadn't even entered B door! eta was also holding the Dog Hole!

Where did he shoot from?

Sha di!

Which was behind them!

"Damn it!" HSK understood instantly; he only focused on holding Middle to save his life and maintain the advantage of having more people, not caring about the information at B door, giving Ori a chance to sneak through B door.

And advent and aumaN at A Small were just the first layer of hooking and hiding; after they dealt with these two people, the second layer, Jiao Yang, would sneak out from behind.

The opponent had completely mastered his thinking!

When occupying an advantage, he always chose steady playstyles, which could restrain those reckless "hard-gunning" teams.

Thus, VG adopted a dark sneak attack tactic, playing tricks.

"Too despicable!" HSK gritted his teeth.
