Chapter 244: Northern Expedition! Northern Expedition! (Ten-thousand-word chapter)
(There was a bug, I modified the previous chapter. The first match after the off-season should be the StarSeries in Shanghai. I'm dizzy, 6,000 words written for nothing... The content of the previous chapter has been modified, it is recommended to take a look at the previous chapter first, otherwise there will be a sense of fragmentation.)
Tuesday, April 2, 2019.
Inside the Shanghai Baoshan Gymnasium, the Vitality team members were adjusting in the backstage lounge, preparing to welcome today's match.
"There really are endless accidents in this tournament," apex said, lying in the backstage lounge.
shox comforted him: "Accidents are always unavoidable. At least we haven't been eliminated yet, and everyone is getting better."
CS: GO tournaments are known for being fast-paced and intense. shox was long used to this rhythm; even though he had come to compete on short notice, he didn't have much psychological fluctuation.
What's more, they had been given 10 days to adjust before the tournament.
During these 10 days, they had been grinding day and night, slowly developing some chemistry.
But these 10 days also allowed Xu Beifang to gradually understand the personalities of his two teammates.
First is the legendary player, the French Captain, the Vitality male model, the last old lurker of France—shox.
As one of the three gods of CS: GO clutches in history, he had pulled off many stunning clutches in recent scrims.
But Xu Beifang had to admit, shox's playstyle is truly that of an old lurker!
This is shox's communication in recent scrims:
"You guys go ahead, I'm hiding in the back to cut off their rotation..."
"Watch your back! I just let someone pass..."
"Don't be in a hurry in front, I can steal a backstab here..."
"Stall them, stall them, I'm still flanking..."
Even Xu Beifang was very surprised, not understanding how shox managed to catch so many backstabs.
Nowadays, Vitality's clutches basically rely on three people to win.
Xu Beifang relies on his frontal positioning ability, using his gunplay to trade damage with the opponent, tearing them apart bit by bit.
Zywoo relies on exaggerated information processing to play very reasonable clutches, just like a textbook.
While shox relies on strange timings, using backstabs to get the first kill before going on to win.
Old Lurker Shao's style has a certain conflict with the current Vitality, but he is actively making changes.
jackz also gave Vitality quite a few surprises.
Originally in the French scene, Old Jack wasn't a famous player, just a barely usable rifleman.
Vitality didn't have high demands for him, as long as his performance could exceed rpk's.
jackz's performance is much more stable than rpk's, and he plays very actively. Once apex gives an order, he executes it absolutely strictly without too many personal thoughts.
It can be said he is a perfect role player.
While this guy is stable, he also has a certain explosive power, occasionally giving you a highlight performance, which is very nice!
It's just that, although he is good on an individual level.
But after entering the StarSeries, various accidents occurred among the players.
First, jackz wasn't acclimated to the environment and had a fever on the first day of the tournament.
Just as he was getting better, Xu Beifang was affected by kidney stones over the next two days, barely managing an average rating of 1.05 in two matches.
If this data were held by jackz or apex, it would already be excellent data, but with Xu Beifang putting up such numbers, the team's overall output was slightly insufficient.
On the first day, relying on Zywoo's performance, they successfully took down BIG.
But in the BO3 on the second day, they ran into a hot-handed fnc and were directly hammered, only getting 12 rounds across two maps.
By the third day, Zywoo put up a 1.56 rating across two maps, but still couldn't complete the epic task of carrying four people.
Vitality's record had reached 1-2; if they lost one more match, they could buy tickets back to Paris.
However, no one on the team blamed Xu Beifang, after all, kidney stones are truly life-threatening when they hurt.
And seeing Xu Beifang in so much pain, they didn't feel good inside either.
"Knock knock knock!"
The lounge door was knocked, and Zywoo ran over to open it.
Xiaogui appeared at the door with the Red-Haired Goblin Elite.
"Hi, my son!" Xiaogui raised his hand to greet apex, earning an eye-roll from apex.
Xiaogui's face was beaming with a smile.
As brothers in the European scene, their relationship with Vitality has always been quite good.
This time, Vitality's training account on the 5E Battle Platform was still resolved with the help of Tyloo.
After greeting Han Dou, Xiaogui sat down next to Xu Beifang and asked: "How's the situation?"
Xu Beifang smiled with relief: "The Medicine King Sect cultivator forcibly stripped the Ten-Turn Golden Core from my body; I have already become a Foundation Establishment cultivator."
"Speak human language!"
"The stone has been taken out, the brother is back to full health!" Xu Beifang had an optimistic smile on his face.
He had to be optimistic; perhaps it was because he ate too many soy products after returning home, he felt something was wrong on the first day of the StarSeries, and it flared up during the match on the second day, hurting so much he wanted to curse.
If it weren't for the fact that xtqzzz's level was even worse, Vitality would have been ready to stage a scene of the head coach warming up on the second day of the StarSeries.
After the match, he went to the hospital, and the doctor said the position wasn't ideal, telling him to drink more water and jump more.
He was even playing matches on painkillers yesterday, but the discomfort in his lower back remained, preventing him from focusing, which led to his performance over the past few days.
Fortunately, after going back last night, the stone was finally jumped out, and now he is back to full health.
"But your record is already 1-2 now, you're done for if you lose one more," Danking muttered while chewing on something, the corners of his mouth twitching.
Xu Beifang looked at him with a frown: "Tie Dan, why are you chewing betel nut every time I see you? Is the addiction that bad?"
danking shrugged: "Is there an addiction to betel nut? I eat it every day and don't feel anything."
"You damn well give your betel nut addiction some time to kick in, you jerk."
This StarSeries S7 has a total of 16 top teams gathered, and the prize money for the tournament is quite explosive, a full 500,000 USD, making all the major tier-one teams envious.
You have to know, the just-concluded Katowice Major was only 1 million USD.
But the premise of 1 million USD was because it was a Major tournament.
For a tournament like this with 500,000 USD, there aren't many in a whole year.
The most worth mentioning is that this time, Astralis chose to postpone their schedule because it was too tight, so they didn't accept the invitation to the StarSeries.
This is also the reason why other teams are tempted.
You have to know, in the past two years, Astralis has been able to reach the finals in almost every tournament they participated in.
After reaching the finals, the probability of winning the championship is also very high.
Although no one said it explicitly, Astralis refusing the invitation made them breathe a sigh of relief, and they also had some thoughts about the championship.
With Astralis not there, the gap between the teams within the top 20 is not large.
The format of this tournament is a three-loss elimination system; except for the finals which are BO5, all other matches are BO3.
Vitality is now at a 1-2 record, standing on the edge of elimination.
Xu Beifang turned and asked: "Who is our opponent today?"
The big bald coach glanced at the scoreboard: "Playing VG."
As a loyal player of Legends of the Three Kingdoms, Xu Beifang blurted out: "Then let the Northern Expedition begin! Start by taking down VG today, and slowly climb up."
"Northern Expedition? How many Northern Expeditions in history had a good ending?" danking said disdainfully, although he didn't know exactly how many there were.
"VG isn't weak this time, oh," Xiaogui reminded from the side, "They even crushed NaVi on the first day."
Xu Beifang waved his hand: "It's fine, the point is to ruthlessly humiliate the strong!"
After a few people chatted for a while, xtqzzz reminded: "We need to enter in 10 minutes, everyone get ready."
danking, who had been sarcastic, punched Xu Beifang on the arm: "You have to work hard today, don't really get eliminated."
Xu Beifang smiled.
His personal peripherals had long been packed, and at this moment he was opening his phone to browse Weibo, adjusting his state.
After several days of fermentation, intense discussions about the upcoming matches were happening on the MAX forum, 5E forum, and Tieba, among other social apps.
Because Tyloo and VG achieved good results in this Katowice, plus the phenomenal traffic brought by Qiezi, the popularity of CNCS has risen rapidly.
Plus, Astralis didn't come due to schedule conflicts, which made the final result even more suspenseful.
This led to the forums now being full of discussion posts about this tournament, with only a small number of guidance posts for newcomers and skin operation posts.
The first three rounds of matches ended, and the Chinese team Panda and the Brazilian team Pain had already been eliminated with a 0-3 record.
Except for a small number of fans of specific players, most of the audience didn't care much about this.
But the fact that some people were already out still made everyone feel the bloody scent, because starting from the fourth round, the teams to be eliminated were all "acquaintances" in everyone's eyes.
【Vitality vs VG, this is flesh on both sides of the palm, Beifang was really disappointing the past few days, putting up those kinds of stats】
【New team in the process of grinding, maybe they didn't adjust their state well】
【Fart not adjusting state, Little Xu has been suffering from Golden Core torture for the past two days, listening to him post himself, he wanted to die】
【Stones are indeed life-threatening】
【Feel like there is still suspense in this match between VG and Vitality, just depends on Vitality's state】
Xu Beifang browsed a few posts; everyone still recognized Vitality's strength.
But with the team's main carry in poor condition, leading to insufficient overall output, Vitality is under great pressure in this match.
Although VG's state has ups and downs, in the first round, they once crushed NaVi, proving that this team's ceiling is not bad.
Regarding today's match, everyone generally believes that Vitality is going to suffer.
However, this is different from the thoughts within the Vitality team.
The second and third rounds were mainly due to insufficient overall performance and poor frontal combat power.
The big bald coach believes that if they can enter the playoffs, the hope of winning the championship is still very high.
They have also spent a lot of time trying out the economic mechanism of the new version; the increase in total economy is a huge boost for Vitality.
Vitality's classic segment before was looking forward to whether the Hero FAMAS could turn the tide.
And after the overall economy increased, apex could even ensure that Nice or Zywoo always had long guns to use.
With more attempts, the possibility of turning the tide becomes greater.
Nowadays, the big bald coach also believes that as long as this Vitality lineup is well-grinded, it is a lineup that can compete with Liquid and Astralis.
Powerful frontal breakthrough, stable trade-kill player, an IGL who occasionally plays poorly but can also become a top breakthrough, one of the most powerful snipers on the market, and an experienced lurker.
He believes that given time, Vitality will definitely be able to stand at the peak of CS: GO.
However, for now, they still have to work hard to win the two BO3s in front of them.
Already on the edge of danger, there is no opportunity for them to adjust.
"Welcome to the fourth day of the 2019 SLI StarSeries group stage, the match between Vitality and VG, I am the commentator for this match, Wanjiqi."
"I am the commentator for this match, Wei Wei."
The Yunhan brothers greeted the audience.
A few days of offline matches, even if they hadn't entered the playoff stage yet, made them very passionate.
"The next match is quite cruel," Wanjiqi opened the conversation first, "Vitality and VG are both 1-2 teams now, this BO3 is destined to send one home."
"Everyone wants to advance, so this match is destined to pull out all the stops."
Wei Wei nodded: "But I personally think the key point of this match will still be on the players."
"VG's individual ability actually depends on A-Zhong's explosion, and for Vitality, if Nice still can't exert force, then the situation will become confusing."
The camera was given to the player area.
Xu Beifang had a smile on his face, playing against bots while joking with the teammates beside him.
Without the torture of pain, he felt his state was better than ever!
The past few days, pain caused him to have strength but nowhere to use it, and many kills that should have been taken couldn't be reacted to.
Now that the physical discomfort was gone, he felt his hands itching, wanting to fight with the opponent.
"This BO3 decides whether we continue or go straight back to Paris," apex said with a smile, "Brothers, hold on."
Xu Beifang nodded: "I've been lying down for the past two days, the counterattack starts today, okay!"
"I'm already lying down," Zywoo said with a grin.
While the few were chatting, both sides officially entered the BP stage of this match.
VG banned the map first, they removed Train first; they don't play Train.
The opponent removing Train is exactly what Vitality wanted.
Vitality chose to directly remove Train, so their two weaker maps were banned, and next, no matter what map it is, they can play with VG.
VG locked in Overpass for Map 1.
This choice made xtqzzz raise his eyebrows.
In the current situation where most teams play the old three maps, VG being able to actively select Overpass is truly unexpected.
After considering, Vitality locked in Inferno.
Already on the edge of danger, there is definitely no hiding one's skills at this time, just take out the strongest map.
Finally, both sides removed one more map each, leaving Dust II as Map 3.
Vitality vs VG
Map: Overpass
T: freeman, kaze, zhoking, auman, advant
CT: nice, zywoo, apex, jackz, shox
The pistol round started, the opponent's map selection, Vitality starts on the CT side.
apex opened his mouth to command: "Let's not over-defend B this round, let's go with a 1-3-1 opening."
"Nice, you play alone at A Long, shox you go to B site, others follow me to the sewer."
The sewer on Overpass is somewhat similar to the connector position on other maps.
Defending this position with 3 people, no matter if the opponent wants to speed up A or speed up B, they can provide help in time from the sewer or construction site, effectively avoiding the opponent's speed-up playstyle.
After the countdown ended, Xu Beifang went straight to A Long toilet, waited for a while, and peeked out.
There were two terrorists at A Long far point; he fired a quick shot and started pulling back.
"VG chose to spread out in the pistol round, wanting to play slowly. There is only Nice alone at A Long. Whoa! This peek actually got a headshot on 259, the positioning is a bit exaggerated, oh. If it weren't for this cover, 259 would have directly given up the first kill."
Wanjiqi continued: "Nice played very smartly, he cannot die first at this point. Once he dies, the A Long path will be flattened, and the toilet trio won't be able to rotate in time."
259 is the nickname of VG's IGL advant; it's mainly because this guy's ID used to be 259, and everyone got familiar with it as they called it.
Xu Beifang fired a shot and ran, having no intention of engaging in a gunfight with the opponent.
The opponent's early offensive isn't fast, so he needs to get more information at A Long.
However, apex glanced at his position and made a mid-round decision: "I'm moving forward in the sewer, Jack, you and Zywoo go back."
He keenly heard the footsteps of someone moving from the T-spawn towards the T-spawn.
Could it be a rotation to B?
But just at this moment, the sound of Glocks came from A Long.
Xu Beifang wanted to scout, but a smoke grenade blurred his vision.
"A Long gave a smoke, maybe they want to flash through the smoke," Xu Beifang couldn't judge.
They haven't played this map much, so they aren't familiar with some of the offensive side's routines, making it hard to make accurate judgments.
Hearing this, Han Dou, who was at the front of the sewer, climbed up boldly.
"Han Dou's movement is very fast, but B site has already started exploding bombs. The frontal information made shox rotate back as well. This wave of B site is directly empty, now it can only rely on the frontal retake of B site."
Wei Wei took over: "Yes, but only 259 lost health in the early stage. In this 5v5 frontal retake, VG's discipline is still very high, not giving any chances at all."
Vitality didn't choose two paths; the main frontal force retook from B1 and B2 together, with apex ready to steal kills from the back at any time.
But even so, in a 5v5 frontal clutch, the difficulty of retaking is still too high.
kaze and A-Zhong's hand feel is very good, killing wildly in this retake clutch.
Xu Beifang finally judged that the situation could not be won, decisively choosing to return to A site, saving a piece of armor.
It's just a pity, in the end, a bit of armor was still blown off, unable to replenish to full armor.
1:0
VG took the pistol round.
Coming to the second round, apex said with a smile: "It's a pity that a bit of armor was blown off."
Xu Beifang shrugged: "Doesn't matter, I can still dry them without a helmet."
If he had saved a piece of armor, apex would have let him spend 350 to replenish full armor, then apex would give him a FAMAS to let him create miracles.
But spending 1000 to specifically replenish a helmet in this round is a bit counterproductive.
"Force buy, spend all the money, then shox, let's see if we can double-peek later to steal one at B site. A site, you guys communicate and coordinate yourselves," apex said.
This kind of force buy, turning the tide is the ultimate goal.
But as an IGL, he definitely takes hitting the opponent's economy as the main point.
He won't intervene in how to coordinate at A site.
Xu Beifang opened his mouth: "jackz, help me throw a flashbang later, I'll stick to the middle in the first instance, listen to the opponent's movements, you help me throw the flash at any time."
"Okay, guarantee the flashbang will blind them completely!" jackz said with a smile.
Xu Beifang complained: "Your words remind me of Rain's flashbang."
jackz was also there at the time, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Okay, we see Beifang's FAMAS appear on the field again. Among tier-one players, Beifang is the player who likes the FAMAS the most, because he has absolute confidence in his aiming ability." "jackz is helping to throw a flash at A Small, the timing of this flashbang is very important." Wanjiqi lowered his voice, "Can they grasp this timing?"
Xu Beifang stuck to the wall in the middle, quietly collecting information.
The offensive side threw a middle toilet smoke and a middle flash.
But he didn't hear any footsteps moving towards the middle.
Whether it was to counter-clear for kills or to get the opponent's middle information, Xu Beifang knew he had to counter-clear.
Waiting for two seconds, he said:
"jackz, you can give it."
"Giving it!"
The flashbang flew from Jack's hand, finally exploding on the fountain in the middle.
259 was sticking to the right side of the middle, preparing to push forward. A flashbang flew over; he saw it, but couldn't dodge it.
"Ding—"
The screen went completely white instantly.
Xu Beifang saw the terrorist covering his eyes, pulled the FAMAS to the opponent's head, and fired.
【nicejackz used FAMAS to get a headshot kill on advant】
"Nice, he did it! Good flash matches good person, 259 couldn't dodge at all, FAMAS short burst directly got the first kill." Wanjiqi said excitedly, "No... shox is holding a Desert Eagle at the construction site, instead he got the first kill."
"Nice killed one, even wanted to repeek the T-spawn, but eventually played it safe and retreated."
Wanjiqi likes commentating on Xu Beifang's matches very much, because with Xu Beifang present, no matter the result, this match will always be in an exchange of fire, giving a very good viewing experience.
"Nice got a kill here, and also got information that both the T-spawn and the park have one. A-Zhong, who was walking alone, was sent away at the construction site. This wave of VG's situation is a bit bad."
"Beifang has a FAMAS in his hand, shox also got an AK47, now their weapon configuration is in the lead."
After making a name for themselves with a small routine at the start, the main force at A site chose to retreat while the going was good.
The overall positioning pulled back directly.
Xu Beifang retreated into the A Long toilet, Zywoo saw this and came to the vicinity of the stone slab.
With him at A Long, Xu Beifang only needs to watch that angle in the middle while in the toilet.
Even if Xu Beifang is picked off, he can immediately fill in the backstab.
5v3 numerical advantage, next if there is an equal exchange of numbers, they are in the advantage.
"Time is still 1 minute, VG chooses to find an opportunity first." Wei Wei saw VG's movement and shouted: "Here it comes! freeman is moving silently from the balloon, preparing to enter the toilet, but Brother Beizi's FAMAS is holding it!"
"FAMAS directly holds freeman's AK to death, Nice has found his state today, wanting to peek him is still relatively difficult."
The situation came to 2v5, kaze was a bit helpless.
This frontal force, people just disappeared without knowing it.
Originally, according to 259's idea, this clutch would have two people at A site do a wave of bomb explosions, making enough noise.
Then he would take the bomb and sneak into A site.
But now in a 2v5 clutch, the opponent basically doesn't move!
kaze still wanted to try a wave, he pushed into B site bit by bit.
His pre-aiming was very good, directly headshotting Han Dou who was holding the oil drum directly.
Quickly clearing the points, he confirmed there was no one underwater, and directly planted the bomb.
But at this time, gunfire came from behind him.
【shox used AK47 to get a headshot kill on kaze】
kaze was stunned instantly.
Moving so fast?
But thinking about it, he also understood; shox was moving silently in circles around the cylinder, always stuck in his blind spot.
This old lurker!!
The last one left was auman, he had a Galil in his hand, not wanting to force a weapon save.
Time was still 30 seconds, he still wanted to try.
"The last Terrorist is still trying; he snuck all the way to the Long Pipe. Shox has also rotated over to the Long Pipe, the bomb is dropped at B Site, and the other guys are coming over to B Site to try and pick up guns."
"But shox changed positions and was discovered, auman directly burned the fire to force shox at the oil drum out and kill him."
"With 10 seconds left, the two underwater just need not to actively look for him."
Zywoo and Jack didn't want to look for him to duel, but helplessly auman insisted on playing this clutch, hearing footsteps, they could only double-peek.
But what they didn't expect was that auman was in good form, a wave of spray transfer hit them all.
"Don't go! Don't go, he doesn't have time," apex reminded in the voice chat.
Xu Beifang, who had already arrived at the construction site, heard this information and chose to calm down.
After waiting for the time to return to zero, he actively peeked towards the long pipe.
auman won the battle at B site, but there was no time left, he could only switch to kaze's AK47 wanting to save the gun.
But soon hearing the footsteps of the short pipe, he immediately turned his head to look.
"Da da da..."
【nice used FAMAS to get a headshot kill on auman】
auman covered his face in pain.
All CS: GO players know how uncomfortable it is to be killed after the offensive time ends.
Originally, they were just a little bit away from winning this round, but because there was no time to plant the bomb, they could only save the AK.
But being caught in the second before jumping to the next round, this AK47 wasn't saved either, and there wasn't even any loss bonus for the next round.
His mentality received a small fluctuation.
"How come he is everywhere!" 259 said speechlessly.
Winning the pistol round and being turned around instantly, their economy can be called explosive.
Originally winning the pistol round, the first three rounds could be taken very smoothly.
But just because of this FAMAS of Nice, a wave of counter-clearing in the early stage ate him without injury, then relying on holding the gun to kill freeman, and finally even killed auman after the time ended.
This FAMAS is really outrageous.
"This last shot is too disgusting." jackz offered a fist, a bad smile on his face.
Xu Beifang bumped his left fist with him: "I died, but it was just dropping a FAMAS."
He died, but he still had economy for the next round, but the opponent died, and the next round was really a headache.
After the economy exploded, VG chose to spend all their money in one round, and then conduct an eco round to find opportunities.
But until the 6th round, VG finally got a point relying on a wave of speed-up at B site in the second instance.
"It's a pity," Wanjiqi sighed, "The clutch of the twin stars was played beautifully, but when Nice killed kaze at the end, the defuse kit was dropped too far away, there was no time."
But to be honest, after VG adjusted their economy, the B site bomb explosions in the next few rounds were really smooth.
Xu Beifang and Zywoo started to play clutches crazily, but couldn't trade effective kills frontally, which made them very uncomfortable.
But shox and Han Dou were also helpless; it wasn't that their frontal exchange of fire was bad, but VG's trade-kill speed was a bit too fast.
This group of guys on the opposite side, although some details were not in place, still had individual ability, and there was nothing to say about the gunplay.
The two of them faced the enemy frontally at B site, sometimes being affected by flashbangs, and the opponent rushed out and killed them instantly.
The score, without knowing it, had already reached 6:4.
It seems to be leading by two points, but on this big CT map, it doesn't count as a lead.
And being chased by the opponent for several points, their economy is also on the verge of collapse.
Xu Beifang has an AK47 saved by Jack in his hand, Zywoo has a FAMAS, and the others are all pistols.
"Nice, you continue to top forward, play more aggressively in the park or the middle," apex said, "I need you to collect information in the mid-round."
Xu Beifang nodded, but considering that VG had exploded bombs at B site many times in a row, he finally arrived in the sewer.
jackz used a Desert Eagle at A Small to help him scout the middle.
Zywoo went to B site to stand; VG's continuous speed-ups forced them to stand in a 3B posture from the start.
After the countdown ended, Xu Beifang entered the sewer carrying an AK47.
With Jack helping him watch the middle, he had no worries for the time being.
He quietly held a crossing point going to the upper level in the sewer, waited for a while, a flashbang was thrown in the sewer, Xu Beifang turned his back to it, and directly peeked backward.
"Da da!"
The crisp gunfire directly hit auman's head.
"Hiss..."
Although he got the kill, auman also hit him with a headshot with a Galil.
If the opponent had an AK47 in his hand, he would have been done for in this wave.
Looking at the remaining health, Xu Beifang hurriedly ran backward: "Jack, come and swap guns, I'm out of health."
If it were a sniper rifle, then low health might still play a key role, but a low-health AK, if the first shot doesn't headshot, the opponent's chance of counter-killing is extremely high.
Giving it to a teammate will have a better performance.
After swapping guns, the two-person defense at A site still had insufficient combat power.
Xu Beifang thought for a while: "Han Dou, can I go to B? I can send myself out to get information."
He was already low on health, his combat power at A site wasn't strong, this round only had two long guns, wanting to win still required playing more actively.
apex thought for a while: "Come on, Zywoo stay at B1, ready to rotate to A at any time."
The opponent just tested a wave at the construction site, now there was no movement, which also put Han Dou under a lot of pressure.
Xu Beifang's movement was fast, because he knew he was here to die to get information, so his big steps were very rapid.
It wasn't until he was near the long pipe that he moved silently and pushed forward slowly.
Clearing all the way to the outside of B, Xu Beifang didn't see anyone, confirming the opponent's thoughts: "Rotate back to A quickly, didn't see anyone outside B and at the construction site!"
Hearing this, the trio at B site hurriedly started to retake.
"VG is still clearing points slowly, but Nice has been very bold, clearing all the information outside B, they still haven't figured out how aggressive this guy's playstyle is."
"VG unfolded the bomb explosion, but the first bank fire exploded in the air, Jack took the AK given by Nice, first caught A-Zhong at A Long, and then killed freeman at A Small."
"jackz didn't disappoint, the AK47 handed to him by Nice achieved results, taking two in a row!"
Zywoo, who arrived for the retake, was killed by kaze's sniper rifle.
Just when Jack was a bit impulsive and prepared to go out to trade, apex pulled him back in time: "Don't be in a hurry, 4v2, let's take it slow."
This 4v2 clutch, Xu Beifang was still flanking, as long as the opponent was locked at the bomb site, it would be easy to operate.
Xu Beifang pushed from the toilet to A bomb site, the teammates confirmed there were two people at the bomb site, so his movements weren't in a hurry.
In this situation, the slower the back route, the less the opponent expects it.
Because the pressure of a 2v4 clutch is very high, they can't worry about so many positions.
Xu Beifang arrived at the middle of the toilet, keenly seeing a terrorist looking and turning his head again.
The moment he turned his head, he seemed to have discovered Xu Beifang, wanting to look over again in a panic.
But Xu Beifang didn't give him a chance at all.
"Bang!"
The bullet shattered the terrorist's bulletproof helmet, killing him with one shot.
【nice used Desert Eagle to get a headshot kill on kaze】
"kaze was directly stolen by Nice from the back, 259 still wanted to operate, but was also instantly killed by shox, this long gun round was turned around again."
Wanjiqi summarized: "There is no good way, the positions of the terrorists are too awkward. In this situation, perhaps only grouping up to rush the bank or trash can has a way to live, but kaze has a sniper rifle in his hand, they are not easy to move."
Wei Wei laughed beside him: "But I have to say, Nice played well here. His state was poor the past two days, but today it's like a bottom-out rebound. Now that 11 rounds are over, he has already gotten 24 kills, that god-like player is back."
From their perspective, Nice's performance in this round was impeccable.
In the early stage, he used an AK47 to get kills, and after being low on health, he didn't insist on holding the AK, but very team-orientedly swapped guns with his teammates.
Immediately after, he used his low-health state to collect information, playing very actively, very positively, very team-oriented.
On VG's player bench.
259 looked at the opponent's kill information, a bit of a headache.
He tried to avoid Xu Beifang, letting Xu Beifang play the clutch.
But on this map, Xu Beifang and Zywoo are often defending at A site, and the clutch performance of the two of them is truly outstanding.
Their B site offense won many times, but they didn't get many points.
"Let's control the map and play fast," 259 said, "This Beifang plays too well, don't let him run around on the map. Later, after we finish the default at A site, we will directly explode bombs at A Small and rush in."
His idea is very simple, Nice can get kills, change positions, and get kills again.
Then don't give him a chance to roam, group up to play fast trade-kills, and directly trade Nice.
After the countdown ended, Xu Beifang held an AK47 and arrived at the front point again.
This time, he didn't top forward at the start, but slowed down the rhythm.
3B2A opening, allowing them to play less aggressively.
Listening for a while at the sewer entrance, not getting any information, Xu Beifang very simply arrived at the A Long stone slab, using a jumping method to scout A Long.
"No one at A Long."
After getting the A Long information, Xu Beifang returned to A bomb site.
apex frowned, he thought there was too little map information.
"Zywoo, give a construction site flash, I'll take a look at the construction site situation."
After a wave of counter-clearing, they successfully cleared the construction site.
"No one at the construction site!"
Han Dou shouted excitedly: "Zywoo and shox, you guys rotate back to A directly, I'll hang out at the construction site alone."
Although there was no one at the construction site, it was inevitable that the opponent would rotate, he was holding at the construction site, at least he could trade one.
Zywoo and shox were on the way to rotate back, but Xu Beifang was not waiting at the bomb site.
Instead, he was moving forward slowly and silently.
If it was as expected, the offensive side's next target was A site, then the terrorists should be preparing for the bomb explosion, his sudden attack would definitely disrupt the opponent's formation!
Seeing this scene from the live broadcast room, Wanjiqi took a breath: "Brother Beizi's playstyle is as aggressive as ever, he probably didn't expect the opponent to have already touched the middle of the toilet, this position is a bit difficult to handle."
"This position is too awkward, at most kill one and then be traded. Once VG's offense unfolds, he might be directly hit by this wave of steel-flood-like bomb explosions!"
Xu Beifang moved forward quietly, and just at this moment, he saw someone in the toilet moving towards A Small.
Immediately fired, but the opponent appeared in his field of vision for an extremely short time, not killing him directly.
"Toilet near point pushed! Right there under the platform!!" After the first contact, auman shouted in the voice chat.
A group of VG people also became alert instantly, finding angles to prepare to deal with the person in front of them.
The first contact didn't go very well, instantly putting Xu Beifang in the middle of the big road.
Xu Beifang hurriedly moved to the left, using the inherent wall of the toilet to create some cover for himself.
Looking for an angle to the left, he saw a terrorist holding props at a far point, and fired a burst directly.
"Nice's positioning is very crazy, now one person has to hold two points. kaze is still holding props preparing for bomb explosion, directly killed by him in a burst."
"VG's voice chat is now full of trade-kills, A-Zhong directly pulled out from A Small, but was instantly killed by Nice!"
The moment he killed A Small, Xu Beifang heard footsteps in the toilet, he instantly pulled the crosshair over, and killed him in a burst.
But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, A Small peeked and didn't find him, directly pulling out to trade.
Xu Beifang could only pull the crosshair over again, a burst of spray transfer!!
"A-Zhong was instantly killed, but 259 in the toilet came out to trade, now Old Jack is holding at A Long, temporarily unable to help Xu Beifang."
"But Nice positioned over and directly killed 259, the terrorist at A Small pulled out, and was killed by him again, whoa!! This Nice!! What kind of god-level positioning is this!!" The wonderful kills on the screen made Wanjiqi's voice become passionate.
Wei Wei quickly took over: "But the terrorist at A Small is coming one after another, Nice's AK47 gun has no bullets left, but he still has a Desert Eagle!!"
"Switched to Desert Eagle and counter-killed one, jackz has already rushed over, completing the final trade."
"VG has been evaporated by this teenager's passion! He, with his own strength, disintegrated VG's offense!"
Wei Wei was stunned: "This wave Nice stood in the middle of the big road alone, forcibly relying on spray transfer to disrupt VG's offense, what kind of human-like cheat is this?"
The score reached 8:4.
VG called the first timeout of this match.
How come this person is like a spinning top... 259 covered his forehead speechlessly.
? ¢o
The plot of the previous chapter was slightly modified, because the first match after the off-season should be the StarSeries in Shanghai, not IEM Sydney.
So it should be Zywoo and them coming to find Beifang.
The change of tournaments led to a change in the final opponent, and the 6,000 words I had already written were directly scrapped.
Finally, thanks to the alliance leader 'Mo Chengyun' for the reward. I originally promised you 15,000 words today, sorry, sorry, I will make up for it tomorrow. ===== CHAPTER 245 =====
