259. Chapter 254: He chases, he flees, he can't escape? (10k)

"My problem... If I hadn't been mixed to death, I shouldn't have been turned around."

In the ENCE voice chat, Sergej said.

He saw the opponent fire and mix, and almost subconsciously reacted by spraying back, but didn't expect to be killed in seconds by a spray.

After he was killed in this clutch, it also led to quite a few chain reactions.

Xseven behind him was forced to look at the front, but was caught by Shox and stolen.

Finally, only AleksiB was left, unable to turn the tide.

A 1v3 clutch was never an easy thing, and AleksiB wasn't a "hard-gun" type IGL.

AleksiB had a smile on his face, reached out his fist toward him, and said with a smile: "Now our score is still in the lead, this early stage was played quite well, and Vitality should also get points, otherwise I'm really afraid the NRG script will be staged on our heads, that wouldn't be very fun. Our economy is still quite good, so let's continue to play according to this defensive mode. As long as we don't give Nice and Zywoo a chance to duel, we group up to retake, and their individual ability won't be able to be exerted..."

The score on the top was 3:5, their economy was still quite good, and they could still play slowly according to the previous rhythm.

"Good coordination!"

Shox's voice came from the voice chat. Xu Beifang looked down and saw the French male model's face showing a handsome smile, stretching out his fist toward his side.

Xu Beifang also stretched out his fist and bumped it with Shox's in the air.

ENCE's defense was a bit disgusting.

They guarded every point very tightly, and the middle control was constantly delayed by archway smoke or fire under the archway. Vitality's middle control push couldn't be fast even if they wanted to.

Before, they had also tried a wave of explosive bomb pushes.

ENCE's handling of explosive bombs wasn't to find an opportunity to fight you while you were bombing.

But to hold the CT spawn, connector, and archway areas, lock you in the bomb site, A1, and A2 positions, and then slowly play by relying on retakes.

The discipline was very high, and the playstyle was also very steady.

But as the attacking Vitality, they were very troubled.

This led to the fact that although the force-buy round completed a comeback, Apex had been slow to say how this point should unfold.

Xu Beifang noticed Apex's difficulty, looked at his position, and took the initiative to say: "Dou-Dou, can I find an opportunity at A2?"

Happy asked: "How do you plan to play? Do you need us to cooperate with you?"

Xu Beifang thought for a while: "You guys do middle control as usual, and walk one person to A1."

"Okay." Apex nodded. "Then Zywoo, you buy an AWP to go to A1 and draw a prize. I'll give a VIP smoke at the start, Shox will give a pass smoke, and then the sewer and the middle will synchronize to take control."

The preparation time ended, Xu Beifang bought an SG553 and strode toward A2.

He didn't like the feel of this gun very much, but he had to admit that the SG553 in the current version was very strong, at least in terms of damage output efficiency, it was a bit higher than the AK.

Running all the way into A2, Xu Beifang took out a fire grenade and threw it to the right side of A2.

After the A1 fire exploded in the front, Xu Beifang's A2 fire exploded in the back.

Taking advantage of the flames still spreading, he let go of his footsteps and started rushing toward the A2 exit at full speed!

This kind of race against time to grab an opportunity, NiKo's "sweeper" style of clearing points wasn't very suitable. Xu Beifang rushed quickly, mainly relying on surface clearing and then relying on positioning to get kills.

Pulling out horizontally from A2, the first look at A-site was empty.

He looked at the CT spawn vision to the right again, didn't see anyone at CT spawn, and jumped down directly.

ENCE's defensive tenet was still to give pressure to the middle in the early stage, trying to let the opponent not get middle control within one minute.

As the main A defender, Sergej threw an A1 fire at the first time, then stood behind Long Box and threw a mid-long flash toward the middle.

This flashbang was mainly to give pressure, not to create kills.

He had a flashbang and a smoke grenade left in his hand, and he walked toward the bottom of A2 with his knife out.

He didn't intend to defend at this position. After being whipped by Astralis for a year, everyone's understanding of the game had gradually widened.

They also knew the specialty of this position under A2.

Although he could get a lot of information and give a little pressure when the terrorists' explosive bomb first wave came.

But this position was too aggressive, which also led to being easily targeted to death.

ENCE still preferred reconnaissance positions like CT spawn.

The moment he walked over with his knife out, Sergej's eyebrows moved. He keenly heard a trace of disharmony in the fire grenade.

Why is it still burning?

Sergej smelled a trace of something wrong and hurriedly took out his long gun, but just then, a figure fell from the sky.

"Da da da!"

【Nice used SG553 to kill Sergej】

"A2 directly stepped out!!" Sergej was startled by the paratrooper from A2 and hurriedly reported the position to his teammates.

The director's perspective was still in the middle, and Wanjiqi was also analyzing the situation in the middle for the audience in the live stream room, but the sudden kill information made him stunned.

"How did this Nice already rush out from A2!" Wanjiqi was shocked!

He glanced at the time; it was only 1:38 now.

This meant that Nice had rushed forward with big steps from the moment he respawned.

After Xu Beifang got the kill, he originally intended to give a connector smoke, and then move toward CT spawn.

As long as he stood at CT spawn, they would have taken control of one side of the A bomb site.

However, he got the kill here, and Zywoo, who was playing the AWP at A1, also topped out very bravely.

"Beifang, do you want a connector flash?"

Xu Beifang took a look; Zywoo had already grabbed a flashbang.

"You can give it!"

Zywoo's flashbang left his hand, and Xu Beifang, who had already moved to Long Box, peeked to the left to scout the vision.

A connector policeman was covering his eyes and jumping toward the archway.

"Da da da..."

【NiceZywoo used SG553 to kill Aerial】

"Good gun!!" Happy shouted in the voice chat. "You guys don't die at A-site, Shox stay in the back and play by yourself, Jackz and I are rushing back to the T-spawn."

The kill Xu Beifang suddenly got made the situation of this point instantly clear.

Vitality's voice chat was full of excitement, while ENCE's mood wasn't very good.

AleksiB looked at the A-site on the map that no longer had defensive players, and helplessly gave the order to save the guns.

This point, they were in a 3-B-2-A formation at the start. Two people at A-site were instantly killed, and they didn't even have the desire to retake.

"What's the situation? How were you two killed in a flash?" AleksiB asked.

He wasn't questioning, but as an IGL, he wanted to understand the opponent's playstyle habits to make some fine-tuning of the positions.

Sergej replied: "Nice rushed out directly from A2 at the first time."

Allu was a bit puzzled: "You didn't hold him?"

"There were no footsteps at the first time." Sergej also sorted out his thoughts at this moment and explained: "Nice should have thrown a fire to the right side of A2 at the first time, covering his footsteps. I was still in the process of switching guns when he directly pulled out horizontally and caught me."

This was already the third time playing against Vitality, but Nice's variable playstyle still made him feel surprised.

Aerial added on the side: "I saw Sergej killed and immediately wanted to supplement to the connector, but I ate a flashbang head-on and was caught by him."

"The opponent's utility connection is so fast."

He considered his movements fast enough, but just walking from the archway to near the connector, he was fully flashed and killed, not even having a chance to see the opponent's face.

Their communication hadn't ended yet, and one wave hadn't settled when another arose. Gunshots suddenly rang out at B2.

Shox grabbed the opportunity and stole two side-backs with a spray.

Fortunately, Xseven finally completed the trade kill and saved Allu's AWP.

The entire team only had one AWP left. AleksiB, who originally wanted to build some tactics, could only let the team save money.

"Not bad, Shox, you can even catch this back." Apex said somewhat unexpectedly.

Shox smiled: "It's still Nice who got the kill in the front, otherwise some timing wouldn't be caught, and I would just be purely sending it if I touched it like that."

Getting along for more than half a month, his perception of the team's entry fragger was getting better and better.

Although they would bicker occasionally due to their personalities, he had to admit that the team's frontal firepower was sufficient; playing as a lurker like this was truly comfortable!

Because the entry fragger got the kill, the defensive side would definitely retake or adjust their formation.

Different numbers of people, the standing players are also different.

Just like the double-B position, they would definitely choose some crossfire or "one-hook-one-fight" positions.

But if it's a single B, jumping to see utility is the best practice.

And in these position changes, there must be timing appearing.

Shox was very good at catching this kind of timing, but the premise was that the front could get results.

Apex was also very happy. Shox's kill seemed like an ineffective kill, but it could also play a big role in the situation.

This wave of his caught the opponent's two long guns, and ENCE's economy directly exploded.

The next round, as they expected, ENCE had one AWP and four unarmored pistols.

ENCE wanted to let Allu's AWP top out to find an opportunity.

But could Allu play it?

Can't play it, don't you know you don't have this ability?

Allu's AWP belonged to the traditional sniper, the playstyle was too conservative, and it was hard to play a role at this time.

The score came to 5:5.

Vitality had already tied the score, and bursts of applause from fans came from the arena.

"Woohoo~~"

Happy, who had been a "special forces soldier" for a round in the eco round, shouted excitedly.

Although he didn't know what this meant, he often saw Xu Beifang shout like this, so he followed suit.

"Pursue the victory, brothers!" Jackz's mood was very good, even though his data wasn't very good, he always had kills.

Most importantly, the team could score, which was a very good thing.

Shox twisted his body happily in his seat: "How about it, where should we hit this point?"

Apex was happy, but wasn't carried away by happiness, still analyzing very rationally: "We still do conventional map control, the final direction is toward A-site."

In the previous game, he also discovered ENCE's peculiar playstyle on this map.

"They like to defend B heavily at the start, sending people into the black room to defend. Now it's a bit difficult for us to speed up B or hit B at the second time."

"On the contrary, A-site is relatively empty, we can show more things."

The countdown ended, Xu Beifang carried the SG553 and directly came to A1.

He rushed into A1, saw the opponent didn't throw an A1 fire, and sprayed at the "fly-head" moving toward the archway.

Although he didn't get a kill, he still actively grabbed A1.

Just coming near the A1 connector, he didn't see the opponent's figure.

After considering for a while, Xu Beifang chose to retreat, returning to the rear of A1.

The A1 connector is a very awkward position. Once there is a short box or a peek under the second floor, it will be very uncomfortable, not to mention throwing flashes to counter-brush.

His first wave position had been exposed. Staying at the A1 connector, that was purely relying on reaction to fight.

Wanjiqi's voice carried a unique charm, spreading through the 6657 live stream room.

"Nice appeared again, the brute-force dry-pull A1, catching the gap where the opponent didn't throw an A1 fire, and directly rushed out. However, Nice is very smart here. The first wave didn't catch anyone, so he directly retreated."

"Sergej under A2 gave a conventional anti-clear flash, but this flashbang is destined not to be able to counter-brush anyone."

This point Sergej and Aerial were standing at the A bomb site to defend.

Consecutive point losses made them think about whether their positions had been read through by Vitality.

The opponent's active dry-pull let them know that someone had entered A1. Sergej decisively gave that conventional anti-clear flash, letting Aerial at the short box peek.

"A1 empty?" Aerial said very surprised. "He retreated."

Sergej thought for a while and asked: "AleksiB, can we push forward to A1? It feels like the opponent has rotated."

AleksiB, who was in the black room, thought for a while and made a decision: "Allu, help them seal the second-floor smoke, and you two can try to push forward silently at A1."

Allu gave the A2 smoke, and Sergej and the other started to push forward slowly silently.

Soon they found that there was no one in A1.

Now they were facing a choice again.

Is it to stop here, let one person step on the Nice position, or continue to push forward to get more information?

Sergej gritted his teeth: "Continue to push forward. If the opponent wants to hit B this point, our retake will also be very uncomfortable."

This point they were in a 2-1-2 formation, and AleksiB stepped into the black room again.

Once Vitality chose to speed up B, the first wave could only be held by Xseven alone, and the pressure was still too great.

"Nice didn't go far, he was holding A1 in the back. Sergej directly pulled out from A1 and peeked, but Nice's holding was no problem, directly killing Sergej!"

"Aerial's trade kill was fast, but almost let Nice's spray transfer kill him!"

Although this wave didn't catch the two who were pushing forward, the problem wasn't very big.

"Both main A defenders pushed out from A1, the remaining Aerial hit 3 shots."

Hearing this, Jackz at A2 pushed out through the smoke, pushing forward slowly silently.

Aerial completed the trade kill and returned to the bomb site.

He was very detailed in holding A2, guarding against someone touching out.

But sometimes, it's useless even if you guard against it.

His health was really too low. Just the first wave of eye contact, Jackz's first bullet killed him.

【JackzNice used AK47 to kill Aerial】

"Jackz touched out from A2, killed the residual-health CT at A1 with one shot, but Allu also reacted, directly killing Jackz from the connector!"

"Both sides are in a fierce number exchange, but wait, when did Shox touch the archway? This timing might be very fatal!!"

Allu killed the terrorist who touched out from A2 with one shot, and his heart relaxed.

Although the early pushing didn't go well, he killed Jackz, and the number returned to 3v3.

Knowing that the outside of A-site was temporarily safe, Allu immediately came back to peek at the archway.

But the moment he peeked, he saw a terrorist standing at the close point on the left in his peripheral vision.

When did he touch up!!

Allu was scared and hurriedly blind-sniped over, but the gun hadn't fired yet, and the opponent's AK47 bullet hit his head.

"Bang!"

【Shox used AK47 to headshot and kill Allu】

"Shox knows how to play, his timing for touching the archway was very reasonable." Wanjiqi explained. "This wave, if Allu came back to look at him, then Jackz could successfully enter the bomb site."

"And if Allu didn't turn his head, he could get a kill."

"The 2v3 situation, ENCE still intends to try, but AleksiB just came out from B-small and was killed by Zywoo's AWP. He had been ambushed in the middle long ago."

The 2v3 clutch, they still wanted to try.

But 1v3, Shox should have stood at the jungle, and the retake route was blocked.

Xseven could only helplessly save the gun again.

Perhaps this is the life of a B-defender.

Guarding against rush with fear at the start, then constantly changing positions at B-site to avoid being pulled out and killed in seconds, and having to collect information on A-site to see if they need to start retaking.

Sometimes holding utility and jumping at B-site for a whole game, you don't even see a shadow.

Just like this point, between number exchanges, the teammates had already died seven or eight out of ten.

This 1v3 clutch, he didn't know what possibility of reversal there was, and could only enter the gun-saving link.

And in the process of saving the gun, he had to guard against Shox, that lurker, coming to find him.

With the explosion of the C4 at A-site, the score also came to 6:5.

Then the next round, Vitality grouped up and five people flew from B2.

Amidst the embrace of flashbangs, Xseven seemed to transform into Tiga.

He vaguely heard a song coming:

"Boy don't cry, orphan of the beautiful world~"

When he opened his eyes, B-site had fallen into Vitality's embrace.

Xseven only felt numb.

In the remaining rounds of the first half, ENCE only relied on Sergej's explosive four-kill at A-site to get one point, and the remaining rounds were all taken by Vitality.

That Nice on the opposite side even showed them what "thousand-layer routines" for A-site offense meant.

The tricks were really many, and they couldn't defend against them.

The score was fixed at 9:6.

This StarSeries didn't have a half-time break, so both sides swapped camps and directly started the second half of the match.

Vitality came to the defensive side.

Apex thought for a while and made the pistol round order: "1-2-2 position, Jackz, you jump and scout at CT spawn, Zywoo and Beifang, you go to the middle to get information."

The decision orders for entering the defensive side usually wouldn't be many, because the overall playstyle needed to be adjusted according to the information collected and the emergencies faced.

The countdown ended, Shox helped open the dog hole door.

Xu Beifang rushed into VIP first, then jumped down to the middle.

Zywoo followed closely, but was stuck in the "headless position" in VIP, his crosshair holding the pass in the middle.

Xu Beifang didn't see anyone come out at the first time, and actively started to push forward.

He was very careful and cautious in pre-aiming, clearing the T-spawn bit by bit. However, Jackz's loud shout came from the voice chat: "Saw two at A2, should be hitting A, return quickly!"

Hearing this, Xu Beifang accelerated his movements, directly switched to his knife, and started running toward the T-spawn.

Running all the way to the high platform at T-spawn, he started to silently and carefully pre-aim and push forward.

"ENCE is directly unfolding an explosive bomb attack in the front, Vitality directly gave up CT spawn at the first time."

"ENCE is also very wise. After sealing the archway smoke, they gave a flash and directly ate this area of the connector." Wanjiqi commentated quickly. "But Vitality is not in a hurry, they have control of CT spawn, and Nice is flanking very quickly, he seems to be able to intercept the bomb-planter!"

Xu Beifang pulled out from A1 and saw a terrorist who had just finished planting the archway bomb and stood up.

USP aiming and continuous tapping.

"Pop! Pop!"

The bullet passed through AleksiB's skull, taking away his life.

【Nice used USP to headshot and kill AleksiB】

"Although he didn't intercept AleksiB, ENCE's point is not easy to play. Nice's top-out speed is too fast, plus Jackz has been holding the CT spawn information, they know the bomb site is already empty."

"However, how to kill the terrorist in the jungle and defuse the bomb is the task Vitality needs to complete next."

The second after Xu Beifang got the kill, Jackz, standing at CT spawn, grabbed a terrorist passing by the Long Box to the connector and killed him with one shot.

Having confirmed no one was at the bomb site, he very boldly pre-aimed at the angles of the jungle and VIP.

When clearing VIP, someone instantly came out from the jungle on the left.

Xu Beifang subconsciously swung to the left.

"Pop!"

【Nice used USP to headshot and kill Allu】

"Archway still has one!" Teammates' voices in the voice chat.

He immediately pulled out toward the bench direction, but just as he got the vision, he saw the enemies at the archway dying one after another.

【Zywoo used USP to headshot and kill Sergej】

【Jackz used USP to headshot and kill Aerial】

"This point also has no problems. Vitality's steady decision-making is very good, and they also played well in the frontal link after the teammates retook, directly pushing the A-site position of ENCE flat."

Wanjiqi laughed: "Vitality gave ENCE such a long time to adjust their positions, the positions were indeed chosen well, but they didn't beat the opponent at all. This is a complete crushing of gunplay, can only say it's worthy of being the Frenchmen's pistol round."

"Just follow this rhythm, we'll score slowly, take this round first, okay." Apex said with a smile.

Xu Beifang reminded: "The opponent should still have money this point, have to pay attention."

Hearing the teammate's reminder, Apex also restrained the idea of wanting to go out with an MP9 to bully people.

The final result was as expected. After planting the bomb, ENCE chose to force-buy and fight hard, getting a Hero AK out.

Sergej was still very brave on the offensive end. The Hero AK grabbed an opportunity, killed Zywoo's scout, and also ate Happy during the push in the middle.

But that was all.

Xu Beifang at the archway got a triple kill, successfully intercepted ENCE's push, and dropped the bomb.

This point was won without danger, and Xu Beifang also captured an AK47.

In the next few rounds, Vitality's offensive on the defensive end was very smooth. Even if there was one point, Xu Beifang made a mistake because he was a bit reckless.

Zywoo, however, relied on an AWP to forcibly fight back a 1v3, making the entire arena go crazy.

The desperate Zywoo was much more terrifying than they imagined.

ENCE relied on AleksiB's breakthrough to successfully take B-site and get one point, and the offensive of the remaining rounds wasn't very smooth.

On the ENCE player seats.

The live audience was cheering for the match point Vitality got. AleksiB listened to this sound, looked at his own team's only 7 rounds, and took a deep breath.

At the Katowice Major last month, they played this map against Vitality.

If he remembered correctly, they relied on frequent B-site fast attacks to gain an advantage.

But after changing players in the off-season, Vitality's B-site became harder to enter.

Shox's playstyle was very flexible, and his sense of smell was also very keen, knowing how to make the opponent's speed-up very uncomfortable.

They had a very hard time getting points at B-site.

And looking at A-site, the difficulty wasn't small either.

The scoreboard said it all.

Nice: 26/3/16

ADR: 140

Headshot rate: 80.7%

This guy's combat ability at point A is really capable of killing. If you put him in the Apex next door, he's at least a double-hammer skeleton sea, purely a freak.

And Nice used to play at A1, now Vitality put him at the archway.

When they were controlling the map in the middle, they were simply tortured by the archway.

And even if Nice was killed, the Zywoo on the opposite side wasn't a human either.

These two guys are really capable of killing!

You give them a clutch, they can really fight it down for you.

"Frontal map control and hitting a one-wave flow is very difficult, and default isn't easy to do either, so let's try to play fake-attack and pull-and-stretch." AleksiB finally sorted out some thoughts.

Just like that sentence Dog-headed Man once said:

"If you can't defeat the opponent's star player frontally, you have to make the opponent constantly move on the map to consume the opponent's resources and feel."

AleksiB intended to do just that. Nice and Zywoo were very strong even in clutches.

But in constant movement, there is always information leakage leading to problems.

They grabbed this point to hit hard!

ENCE others didn't have any thoughts.

Having been reached match point by the opponent, they could only work hard to win every subsequent round.

However, they also had some fantasies in their hearts.

A few days ago, Vitality performed a stunning comeback against NRG on this map. Is it possible for them to replicate a wave?

Although the possibility was very small, this was also the motivation for them to continue playing.

"This turning around, I'm dizzy!" Apex said with a bitter smile.

The two rounds after ENCE's timeout, they performed fake-attack and pull-and-stretch, and they were constantly pulled and stretched.

Two full-buy rounds were collapsed, and Vitality's economy directly exploded.

They had a different view of this IGL, AleksiB, in their hearts.

Because of ENCE's outstanding results recently, everyone was saying AleksiB was the most outstanding IGL of the younger generation.

There were even quite a few AleksiB fans saying he was the world's number one IGL.

But that was definitely some awkward hype. As a new-generation IGL, AleksiB ranked first, which was fine.

But for the world's number one IGL, in front of him were Karrigan, Zeus, and that Danish "smart guy."

However, they also had a new view of this IGL, AleksiB. Perhaps he hadn't reached the level of the world's number one IGL, but the overall playstyle was also quite spiritual.

At least after ENCE's timeout, their defense seemed to be read through.

The score above the big screen was 15:9, Vitality leading by 6 match points.

Apex, however, didn't have any careless thoughts, looked at the team's average economy of 2500, and directly signaled to eco this point and give up one point to play a full-buy round.

Economy wasn't good, the possibility of a force-buy comeback wasn't high.

Rather than being a "stubborn guy" constantly fighting hard, it's better to quickly push to the full-buy round and exchange fire with ENCE with full guns.

Jackz said: "Then I'll buy a flashbang, see if we can catch an opportunity later and kill one."

Hearing this, Apex also bought a smoke grenade.

If the first wave goes well, they can use the smoke grenade to trick the opponent, making ENCE think they force-bought, and also consume the opponent's utility.

Xu Beifang inspected the "USP | Gunshot Death" in his hand, walking toward the archway like an old man taking a walk.

Economy round had no burden, even if he directly pulled out to duel and died, it wasn't any pressure.

But he was enjoying his gun skin here, while ENCE's offensive desire was much stronger than they imagined. Jackz, who was holding his knife in the archway, shouted: "Footsteps, the opponent is coming!!"

Hearing this, Xu Beifang and Apex hurriedly looked toward the bottom of the archway.

A terrorist carrying a MAC-10 walked out from the right side of the archway.

"Puff! Puff! Puff!"

In an instant, three USPs tapped quickly. AleksiB, who originally wanted to be a "special forces soldier" and brush a wave of performance, instantly turned red-blooded.

Scared, he hurriedly slipped away.

"Give flash, give flash!!"

Vitality was unforgiving. Since they had already gained an advantage, they couldn't let AleksiB go.

Jackz heard this and casually threw a flashbang outside the archway, and Xu Beifang followed Apex and chased out.

【Apex used USP to headshot and kill AleksiB】

【Allu used AK47 to headshot and kill Apex】

Happy successfully completed the trade kill, but he also chased too deep and was sprayed to death by Allu behind the sandbag.

But the 1-for-1 in the economy round was definitely a profit for Vitality.

ENCE's mood wasn't beautiful.

They were full-buy vs. short-buy, or even vs. USP. Being traded one at the start would inevitably make them worry.

Now the only good news was that they still had middle control. Vitality couldn't update their guns, so they still only had USP combat power.

Following AleksiB's train of thought at the start, this point was a routine of archway and A2 synchronization.

So Sergej at A2 asked: "Can we go out now?"

AleksiB, who had become a "fountain commander," thought for a while and shook his head: "Don't rush, hold steady, they are all USP, they should come out to find opportunities."

The team had middle control. It wouldn't be too late to wait until the middle was eaten through and then pinch A.

If it were normal times, perhaps AleksiB would have agreed, but they had already been reached match point by Vitality, and the team had no room for error. As long as they lost one more point, this Map 1 would end.

They knew this team's comeback ability, so it was better to be cautious.

After the 1-for-1 in the middle, Xu Beifang actively pushed toward A1 silently.

The archway had been held, and dueling with a USP against a person frontally wasn't a rational decision. Plus AleksiB's action of speeding up to the archway at the first time, Xu Beifang also had some judgments. He said somewhat hesitantly: "ENCE might be hitting archway pinch A this point."

Professional matches are different from ladder matches. Everyone's actions are unfolded according to tactics.

AleksiB pushed to the archway at the first time, which meant the target was placed on A-site.

The hesitation was mainly because of ENCE's fake attacks in the previous few rounds.

It wasn't impossible for AleksiB to actively release fake information.

Hearing Xu Beifang's judgment, Apex said: "Then Shox, you go to A, we'll directly defend heavily and gamble on a wave."

His attitude was quite indifferent. After all, this was an economy round, even if he didn't kill anyone later, it wasn't a big problem.

Teammates were on the way to retake, while Xu Beifang touched into A1 silently all the way.

He touched up to the T-spawn high platform all the way, and also saw the object flashing with light at the terrorist respawn point—the C4.

"Saw the bomb at T-spawn!" Xu Beifang said excitedly.

But before the words fell, he heard gunshots ringing out in several places on the map.

The kill information in the upper right corner popped up.

【Xseven used AK47 to headshot and kill Shox】

Shox, who was on the way to retake at B-site, was caught by Xseven who touched in from B-small, and gunshots also rang out on the front A2.

Shox, who was on his way to retake B site, was caught by Xseven, who had snuck into B Small, and gunfire erupted on the A2 floor in front.

However, Zywoo's positioning control was excellent, and he was not killed directly by the opponent.

Xu Beifang glanced at the bomb; the moment he spotted it, his first thought was to rush over and take out the Terrorist who had returned to pick it up.

But then he reconsidered, thinking he was being a bit too presumptuous.

With only an armorless USP, the difficulty of intercepting the Terrorist picking up the bomb head-on was simply too high.

And his current position was very mysterious; if he could flank to the A2 floor and coordinate with Zywoo to take out those two Terrorists, they could at least save two AK-47s, which might play a decisive role in the upcoming long gun round.

After clarifying his plan, Xu Beifang spoke up: "Can you help hold them from the front? I'm flanking to catch the A2 floor; let's take them out."

Hearing Xu Beifang's request, Zywoo gave an "mm," indicating he understood, and then continuously jiggled to peek, preventing the two Terrorists on the A2 floor from advancing quickly.

After all, once an enemy appeared in their field of vision, they had to stop and deal with them first.

"Zywoo keeps jiggling in VIP to tap-fire at Sergej, while Sergej keeps spraying and praying; he didn't manage to kill Zywoo at first and can only hide under the A2 floor to reload."

"The front-side setup is very solid, but they don't know that Nice has long since pushed out from A1 and snuck into A2. Aerial is still holding the Jump Platform, and he's already right in their faces!" Wanjiqi said excitedly, "Nice has pulled out his knife; I'm going to make a fortune!"

Accompanied by the sound of a backstab.

【Nice used M9 Bayonet to kill Aerial】

Aerial shouted in surprise: "How did someone get behind us!!"

On the mini-map, Allu was on his way from T Spawn with the bomb; they had just communicated, telling Allu to be careful of A1.

But they never expected Nice to sneak up so quickly!

After taking the opponent out with a knife, Xu Beifang picked up an AUG and fired directly through the wall at the area below the A2 floor.

Seeing this, Zywoo, who was in VIP, also came out to find an angle to spray at Sergej on the A2 floor.

Sergej was instantly under attack from multiple sides; the A2 floor was spraying at him, and just as he wanted to fight back, that USP from the side kept tapping him.

He could only turn his head to kill the USP first, but just as his crosshair moved over and before he could adjust, the bullets coming from above had already finished him off.

【NiceZywoo used AUG to wallbang headshot kill Sergej】

"Nice caught one in the back with a knife, knew there was another one under the A2 floor, and with a wave of coordination with Zywoo, they took Sergej out too!" Wanjiqi's tone became excited because he saw the situation changing.

It seemed like Vitality had a chance to turn the tide in this final round!

"Because Ence spent too much time on the default, there are only 21 seconds left now; there isn't enough time to rotate, so Allu is forced to go towards A."

After getting the kill, Xu Beifang dove under the A2 floor, threw the AUG away, and used his USP to knock the weapon toward the Jump Platform position.

On the Ence side, the two remaining players were filled with worry.

Being suddenly taken out by Nice twice in this wave, the situation instantly became deadlocked.

Because there wasn't enough time to rotate to B, they could only go to A, striving to kill the remaining CTs on A site in this round, which would allow them to finish without any surprises.

Xseven, coming out of the Supermarket, cleared the angle and killed Jackz in CT Spawn with a single spray.

That counted as a good start for them.

But the time had already turned red, and Allu and Xseven could not stop their pace at all.

"A1 is coming!" Xu Beifang shouted; the opponent's footsteps had already reached A1.

Zywoo pursed his lips, seized an opportunity at the Jump Platform, and directly wide-peeked out.

"Da-da-da..."

【Zywoo used AUG to kill Allu】

In his haste, Allu hadn't prepared a defensive stance, and Zywoo had come out with a wide-peek movement, killing him instantly.

"Zywoo took out Allu, the bomb dropped at A1, but Xseven from the Supermarket has already snuck into Jungle and killed Zywoo with a single spray."

"Nice wanted to trade, but the timing was bad; the moment he fired, Xseven moved into a blind spot. It's over, his position is locked!" Wanjiqi sighed, "He was too anxious; if he hadn't acted in this wave and just stayed hidden, it would have been fine."

But he also knew that sometimes when entering a clutch, both sides were already nervous.

Many judgments were just subconscious reactions.

After Xu Beifang fired, he also knew the situation was critical.

Although the opponent didn't have enough time, as long as he killed him next, everything would be over.

But in a head-on duel, even though he had an AK-47 in his hand, once he couldn't one-tap the opponent...

Then as long as he got hit by one bullet, he wouldn't even be able to maintain a basic dueling stance.

In this desperate situation, Xu Beifang noticed the stairs nearby, and a clever idea struck him.

Xseven saw Nice actively expose his information and felt relieved, carrying his AK-47 to find him.

He knew the opponent had no armor, so he prepared to crouch while peeking to spray Nice's body, ruining his dueling feel and killing him.

But as he actively peeked to the right to gain vision, the moment he saw the opponent, Nice was already climbing the stairs at a rapid speed.

With no time to think, Xseven hurriedly chased him with his crosshair, spraying.

But Nice in his vision climbed the stairs rapidly, and then, just like a wall-jump in Apex, it was as if a repulsive force had directly launched him away.

Xu Beifang landed directly next to the Short Box and entered behind cover!!

The audience was amazed by this stylish movement; from their god's-eye view, after Nice's position was locked, he was like a rabbit, constantly jumping left and right, dodging the bullets sprayed by Xseven and moving to a safe position.

But the match on the field was still not over, and there were 7 seconds left on the clock.

"Nice, with a top-tier movement, hid behind cover with low health; Nice is still alive, and Xseven is also hurriedly looking for him; he must kill Nice to win this round."

"He chases, he flees, but can he really escape with wings?"

"Nice is circling the Short Box with Xseven like Qin Wang circling the pillar, 3, 2, 1!"

From the live stream, one could hear the excited shouts of the audience on-site, and Wanjiqi seemed to be infected by this emotion, shouting excitedly: "The chase is over, Nice has put on a top-tier movement show for us, and Vitality has finally won Mirage with a score of 16:9!"
