Chapter 318: A Jaw-Dropping Duo

"Save your guns."

After three players were killed in the Outside area, arT issued the order to save.

KSCERATO looked at the kill feed in the top right corner. A few seconds later, a bitter smile appeared on his face. "This Nice is just unreasonable. I didn't even see him before I got taken out. How are we supposed to play against this?"

He felt that he had been even unluckier than electronic in this round.

Electronic usually at least had one HP left before he even saw the enemy.

But at least he had one HP left.

They hadn't even seen anyone and were instantly killed through the smoke. How is anyone supposed to play like this?

And the most ridiculous part wasn't that he was the only one killed through the smoke; all three of them in the Outside area were killed through the smoke. It was completely unreasonable.

The moment KSCERATO recovered from his daze, he sent a "?" to Xu Beifang in the public chat, representing his condemnation.

"We didn't play the Outside area well this round," KSCERATO consoled his teammates who were saving their guns. "Our luck was indeed a bit poor. It's like electronic possessed us today."

As he said this, he cursed, "We clearly didn't 'summon the gods' before the match today, so why is electronic possessing us?"

As soon as he said this, the previously dejected match room erupted in laughter.

Electronic's unlucky constitution was always a subject of ridicule among professional players in the scene.

That's just how the Brazilians were; they could always pull off some fancy tricks in their playstyle, but they could also maintain a relatively cheerful atmosphere.

Compared to the rigorous CSGO style of the Danes, they felt in their hearts that CSGO needed a bit more fun.

After KSCERATO finished laughing, he turned his head and found their IGL lost in thought. "What are you thinking about?"

arT rubbed his chin, looking at Xu Beifang's 13/2/8 score on the screen, and said, "I'm thinking if I report him now, will his account get banned... The parameters just now were completely abnormal."

KSCERATO rolled his eyes at him. Their IGL was great in every other way, but his thought process was always different from normal people, which was quite speechless.

However, being thick-skinned meant the team's atmosphere was often quite relaxed, which was one of the few benefits.

KSCERATO stepped up again to act as the team's morale booster: "Let's go, let's go. This round was mainly just bad luck. In the next few rounds, our luck won't be this bad every time."

"As long as we follow arT's ideas, we can still get into our rhythm."

"..."

After the morale boost, FURIA attempted to get the match back into their playstyle.

In the next few rounds, their luck was indeed not as bad as before.

arT still started from the Outside area to spread out their formation, but Xu Beifang began to actively apply pressure Outside, which put a lot of pressure on FURIA.

They really wanted to take Xu Beifang out at the very beginning of the round so that the rest would be much easier.

But Xu Beifang's playstyle Outside was very varied, changing his approach every round:

Actively stepping onto the top of the Warehouse to catch a timing.

Using an Incendiary Grenade to disrupt FURIA's initial smoke, blocking FURIA's offensive rhythm.

Letting Zywoo harass Outside at the start of the round, while Xu Beifang immediately rushed from the Yellow Room into the Pipe to reach K1, coordinating with teammates from K1 to pick people off.

Suddenly pushing forward Outside out of nowhere.

These unpredictable playstyles made it difficult for FURIA to truly form control of the Outside area.

FURIA loved controlling the Outside area; arT believed that the Outside area could be the core point to unfold their offense.

But Xu Beifang's understanding of the Outside area was that unless the first wave of smoke was spread out, it was very difficult for the Terrorists to truly hold onto control of the Outside area.

Because the Outside area was such a large crossing point, the CTs had several positions from which they could scout information on the Outside area.

arT's idea was fine; if they used their fast-paced playstyle, they only needed a dozen seconds of control over the Outside area.

But Xu Beifang dragged out their control of the Outside area, making FURIA's subsequent offense very uncomfortable.

With the Outside offense proving ineffective, they attempted to unfold their offense from the Inner Site and the Iron Plate.

But Zywoo, roaming between the third floor and below, showed FURIA what the French Heavy Artillery was!

Zywoo rarely tried to take the initiative with his sniper rifle on this map, basically just playing according to default holding positions.

But as long as he fired, a kill would definitely appear in the top right corner.

Zywoo's sniper rifle accuracy today was ridiculously high.

In FURIA's next few attacks, they only managed to win one round by rushing the Inner Site; the rest of the rounds were steadily taken by Vitality.

Finally, the first half ended, with the score locked at 10:5.

As the defensive side, Vitality taking 10 rounds was considered a passing grade no matter how you looked at it.

"Beifang's form is great today."

"FURIA can't play against you at all Outside."

"Zywoo also played well today. As long as his sniper rifle fires, I feel so at ease."

Xu Beifang looked at his teammates who were discussing heatedly and shook his hands helplessly.

No choice, it seemed like after being knifed by arT in the second round, apEX had become extremely excited.

For almost every round they successfully won afterward, Xu Beifang would receive the "hand-hot" energy passed on by apEX.

After the first half, his entire right hand was already red.

"Keep your mindset steady, don't be too careless. After all, this map is a CT-sided map."

"Adjust your thinking, and keep taking points after switching sides."

From 7:4 to 10:5, Xu Beifang's clashes Outside had attracted plenty of attention.

After watching a few rounds, everyone had already remembered the ID "Nice."

Whenever a new round started and FURIA prepared to head Outside, they were filled with anticipation.

Could they take Nice out this time?

But Xu Beifang's performance was even better than they had imagined. His flexible playstyle made their eyes light up, and some Nuke players were even shocked, only just realizing that the Outside area could be played like this.

In the CSBOY live stream, Ma Xixi was even more unsparing in his praise for Xu Beifang.

"This Outside play is indeed beautiful. FURIA's offensive rhythm has been completely broken, forcing them into a slow-paced playstyle."

"They simply can't play against Vitality in terms of details."

"Some friends might say Vitality's Nuke isn't very strong, but Beifang's Outside play is really strong. I heard Tie Dan leak this to me before; he said when they play practice matches against Vitality, every time they go Outside, they have to figure out how to deal with this guy Xu Beifang. This guy is the first mountain blocking their offensive path."

"The first half went quite well overall. If they can win the pistol round in the second half, it's basically a flat push to victory."

Ma Xixi's words made the hearts of the Vitality fans in the live stream tremble.

Before they could complain about Xixi, the match started again.

In the second half pistol round, Vitality organized a pincer attack on the Pipe and the Iron Plate.

shox had a good position at the start and, with utility, rushed into the Pipe alone.

The other Vitality members launched an offensive directly from the Iron Plate.

"But FURIA chose to gamble on the Iron Plate."

"They stood three people on the Iron Plate at the start, and even KSCERATO is on the way to reinforce. This situation is not right!"

"It's over, Vitality ran straight into the muzzle."

"Under crossfire, Vitality ended up with a 3-for-1 trade. apEX, carrying the bomb, went to meet up with shox, and the two of them rushed into the B site."

shox had already scouted the B site and found no traces of the enemy, so apEX entered the bomb site to plant.

It came down to Vitality's classic 2vN clutch.

Only the protagonist of the low-health situation wasn't Zywoo or Xu Beifang. shox and apEX had a decent exchange at the start of the clutch, but after the trade, apEX was left in a 1v2.

With the opponent having a defuse smoke, he ultimately couldn't win this clutch.

FURIA won the second half pistol round.

The viewers in the CSBOY live stream, seeing the final result, started to complain about the streamer one after another:

【I really can't stand this streamer's mouth!!】

【Xixi, oh Xixi, I beg you, this is the lower bracket, there's no room for error!】

【Ma Xixi's hard work in casting makes me forget the fact that he's Ma Liangwan.】

【This guy is truly a toxic caster.】

Watching the content scrolling by in the chat, MO laughed on the side, while Ma Xixi pleaded his innocence:

"I am clearly a professional caster. This wave was obviously Vitality's own problem."

He asked back: "In your impression, did Vitality lose Nuke very often?"

The audience thought carefully, and it seemed it really wasn't that often.

"Since the team was built, Vitality's overall win rate on Nuke has actually been quite high. When they really play, they win more than they lose," Ma Xixi said. "Some friends might ask, then why is it said that Vitality's Nuke is a weak map?"

"First, it's because compared to their other maps, they play Nuke less, and the win rate is also lower."

"Second, and this is a very important point—they have too few tactical playstyles on this map!"

MO took over: "This point is true. I've broadcasted basically all of Vitality's matches that have copyrights. On this map, they rely more on Beifang to lead the rhythm. They really don't have many special formulaic tactics."

He was a former professional IGL, so he was very sensitive to tactical things.

Ma Xixi took a sip of water and continued: "Vitality has basically two playstyles on Nuke for the pistol round. One is the 'strolling' style Outside, fully utilizing Xiao Xu's subjective initiative. If they can get a kill Outside, they rotate to A; if they can't get a kill, they sneak into K1."

"The second playstyle is the Pipe pincer to B, or Outside through K1 to pincer B."

"FURIA clearly made preparations in advance. Since Vitality likes playing B so much, they just gambled on the Iron Plate. If Vitality went for an Outside rush, they could also reinforce below. It was a very rational approach."

After finishing, Ma Xixi gave a wicked smile, then laughed and scolded: "Do you guys even understand CSGO!"

Even when Ma Xixi was being stubborn with his explanation, it was with a tone of ridicule, so the audience wouldn't feel it was too harsh.

This was Vitality's current predicament; they played Nuke too infrequently.

Regarding their weak points, if they only checked themselves, they might just add some new tactics.

But your opponents are often more familiar with you than you are yourself.

The targeting done by opponents could make them clearly understand where their weak points were.

XTQZZZ stood behind them, not just to watch the match up close.

After being gambled on and taken out in the second half pistol round, he quickly noted down this round—this was a very obvious targeting round, and it had great tactical significance for the subsequent review.

With Ma Xixi interacting with the audience, Vitality's force-buy Hero AK failed, and even in the subsequent full-buy round, they were all held and killed by FURIA.

Seeing this situation, MO muttered: "It feels like the second half is going to go bad. Was giving FURIA 5 points really enough?"

Ma Xixi said: "Watching Vitality's offense in these few points is a bit of a headache. Although Xiao Xu is a top-tier rifleman and Zywoo is a top-tier sniper, the tactical nature of this map is ultimately too strong."

"For one person to want to carry, the difficulty is still too high."

"Let's see how they adjust next."

To be honest, FURIA's playstyle after switching sides really made Xu Beifang a bit unable to understand.

Their offense was incredibly aggressive, but after switching to defense, they all became 'old sixes' (lurkers/campers).

In the previous round's offense, they were pushing slowly by default, and three people were killed by unconventional holding positions from various angles.

It wasn't that their default details were lacking, but in the process of pushing, it was impossible to clear all positions.

And then FURIA just used those unconventional holding positions to hard-hold and kill them.

The full-buy round wasn't won, and the score reached 10:8.

The score gap had reached two rounds, and in this round, Vitality was only adjusting their economy. They only had half-armor and Desert Eagles to play with, and Zywoo even needed to save money for utility, not even having half-armor, just a no-armor Desert Eagle.

But they had no choice; after all, their probing in the previous few rounds had been ambushed by FURIA's suddenly changed style.

Now with no money, they could only go Outside to group up and play for trade kills.

Xu Beifang followed behind apEX toward the Outside area.

With no utility in his hands, he planned to rely on the sniper position to peek and trade with the CT in the Warehouse using his Desert Eagle.

But before reaching the sniper position, he saw the opponent throw a forward-pressure smoke, followed by a grenade landing on him at the sniper position.

Xu Beifang instantly became alert.

"Outside might be..."

Before Xu Beifang could finish the word "pressure," he saw a CT carrying a PP-Bizon descend from the sky out of the smoke, landing a flying spray directly on apEX.

"Tat-tat-tat!"

【arT used PP-Bizon to headshot kill apEX】

Rich experience kept Xu Beifang at a certain distance from apEX in this kind of match.

apEX was taken out, and he happened to be near the sniper position.

Xu Beifang leaned against cover and peeked out.

In his field of vision, he saw arT turning and spraying toward him, and his crosshair instantly pulled to the left.

"Bang!"

arT's dream of completing a spray transfer with the Bizon was shattered.

【Nice used Desert Eagle to headshot kill arT】

Xu Beifang's vigilance was at its peak; he didn't dare to go pick up that PP-Bizon for a long time, then heard the sound of a Desert Eagle from the Water Tank, and another kill information appeared in the top right corner.

【ZywOo used Desert Eagle to headshot kill KSCERATO】

"One dropped at the Main Entrance, he had an M4, Beifang, see if there's a chance to pick it up." The information from Shushu still made him feel so at ease.

Xu Beifang hadn't understood before why FURIA had suddenly become so steady.

Now it seemed arT was indeed arT.

Having just gained some advantage, he still loved to farm his economy.

"Seems like there's a chance to flip it," Xu Beifang said.

Although apEX was taken out by arT at the start, Xu Beifang got one, Zywoo got one, and the numbers had reached 4v3.

With the numerical advantage, there was some room to operate.

"Steady up, no need to be too anxious," apEX reminded. "The other side doesn't have much money, they should actively come out to find people next. They only have 3 people, they can't defend everything."

Hearing this, Xu Beifang also calmed down a bit. He pushed to the K1 entrance spiral stairs and stopped, holding K1 and waiting for a while.

Indeed, as apEX said, one couldn't be anxious now; waiting for a timing was also good.

Two of the team's big guns suddenly died Outside, which left the rest of FURIA confused.

"Uh... I didn't expect this Nice to instantly one-tap me, otherwise I could have pulled out an Auto Sniper in the next round." arT was a bit embarrassed; the problem in this wave was indeed on his end.

He had originally planned to take advantage of Vitality's lack of economy to go out and play a special round with the Bizon.

As long as he could take out two, the money for his Bizon would be earned back.

Taking out a few more could even affect the opponent's mindset.

He jumped out and instantly blew apEX's head off, and he was just getting into the feel of it when Xu Beifang one-tapped him.

There was no helping that.

KSCERATO also shrugged helplessly: "Same, I just looked at the Water Tank once and was instantly one-tapped by Zywoo."

Vitality's individual ability seemed even more terrifying than when they had faced them before.

The three remaining members had no words of blame.

Their team playstyle was like this: let arT actively lead the rhythm at the front, rush out to get information, and make the breakthrough.

If arT could gain an advantage with the breakthrough, he would naturally also die like this.

This kind of playstyle was quite normal.

But with arT's poor performance at the start, they had to face reality: they had to operate in a 3v4 clutch.

The structure of this map was relatively complex and overall very large.

There were too many places that needed defending, so after communicating, they chose to temporarily fight on their own.

The best scenario they imagined was yuurih and VINI each getting a kill, and then holding steady in a 3v2 without giving any chances.

yuurih went down from the Pipe to K1, then slowly crept out bit by bit.

He felt that since there had been no movement from the opponent for so long, they might be sneaking from the Outside area to the third floor.

His sneaking out from K1 this time might catch a perfect timing.

He snuck slowly out of K1, but as he walked toward the K1 entrance spiral stairs.

"Bang!"

The sound of a Desert Eagle suddenly rang out, scaring yuurih so much that his whole body shook.

【Nice used Desert Eagle to headshot kill yuurih】

"Ouch!"

"This wave FURIA has completely played themselves. Due to the chain reaction caused by arT's failed forward-push, the numbers have reached 2v4."

"Hiss~" MO took a breath. "This Vitality knows how to play. Even with the advantage in hand, they are still not anxious, just waiting for you to come and find them. There is still 1 minute left, and they have a 4v2 numerical advantage, just waiting for you to make a move."

He couldn't help but think of Tyloo. If they had played like this back then, they might have just picked a point and fought it out.

In such times, if they happened to run into an explosion of individual ability from the opponent, they might lose the advantage they had earlier.

Vitality held their positions for a while. After Xu Beifang picked up yuurih's AK, he heard someone throw a flashbang in K1.

"There's one more in K1, but he can reinforce the Pipe at any time. The remaining one should be holding the Iron Plate." After apEX cleared his thoughts, he explained the next decision: "Zywoo, don't be anxious. Let's make a move from the Main Entrance and pincer A."

Xu Beifang and JackZ followed the instructions and began to move toward the Main Entrance.

JackZ walked toward the front in a crab-walk posture and soon saw an enemy next to the Pipe, immediately taking his M4A4 and spraying.

"Tat-tat-tat!"

But this time JackZ didn't win, because VINI had an SG553 in his hand, and the power of this thing at medium range was too terrifying.

However, it wasn't a big problem. JackZ dared to clear the point this way because Xu Beifang was following behind him. He understood that as long as he got the information, Beifang could really trade the kill.

Xu Beifang didn't let JackZ down, directly spraying VINI down to trade the kill.

【Nice+JackZ used AK47 to kill VINI】

After taking out VINI, Xu Beifang immediately ran toward the A site.

"VINI just came up from the Pipe, his other teammate is on the Iron Plate, and is close to the Terrorist Hall direction," Xu Beifang said quickly.

After reminding his teammates, he directly dropped the bomb on the third floor.

Zywoo entered the A site from the Yellow Room, picked up VINI's SG553, and replenished his combat power.

In the 3v1 clutch, the emotions of everyone in Vitality were slightly tense.

As the "fountain commander," apEX reminded: "Steady, it's a 3v1 clutch, win this and we flip the economy."

Xu Beifang was also made a bit nervous by apEX's expression.

After dropping the bomb, he cautiously peeked at the Yellow Room.

"Tat-tat-tat!"

Bullets flew past his side; the last one, ableJ, was holding him from inside the Yellow Room!

Xu Beifang wasn't polite either, pre-aiming and directly wide-peeking, not giving the opponent a chance to adjust again.

"Bang!"

ableJ directly put on a "pain mask."

"That small-step peek." Ma Xixi shook his head. "Really didn't give any chance at all."

The score reached 11:8, and Vitality finally won their first round of the second half.

This time it was FURIA's turn to be under maximum pressure.

In the previous round, they were in a critical period of economic operation, and arT wanted to be a special forces soldier but failed, directly being flipped by an ECO.

This directly caused problems with their economy. When they entered the 20th round, they couldn't even afford full guns and grenades.

Only arT pulled out a no-armor sniper rifle, which was slightly watchable.

After Vitality flipped the ECO, apEX actively played a tactical round.

They gave a set of relatively unpopular utility at the start.

A Main Entrance smoke, a smoke at the Glass Room entrance, and one on the right side.

These three smoke grenades basically isolated the Inner Site.

The Warehouse was directly isolated.

This tactic, in Vitality's training, was aimed at feinting the third floor and really hitting K1.

They also carried it out faithfully.

But the problem was that when this tactic was really used in the match, it didn't go as smoothly as imagined.

"yuurih is standing at the CT Red Box. His playstyle is quite 'old six,' but this wave really pinned down Vitality's Outside push. The two guys under the third floor were completely locked in the smoke of the Glass Room."

"yuurih even directly called for help. apEX was directly taken out, Xiao Xu is still operating."

"yuurih peeked out and dinged Xiao Xu once, but Xiao Xu directly slapped him to death with one slap."

"This front-line battle ended up as a 1-for-1 trade, not profitable."

"The bomb carrier is heading to K1, but arT pulled out a no-armor sniper rifle. Will this become a foreshadowing?"

"The sniper rifle actively pushed forward, taking out shox with one shot. JackZ wanted to trade, but the distance was too far, and arT had already created space. The sniper rifle fired again, taking two in a row!"

Ma Xixi had a look of relief on his face: "Alright, let's turn our eyes back to the familiar 2v4 clutch."

In CSGO clashes, the display of individual ability has always been a key link.

arT's playstyle was indeed aggressive, sometimes making it really hard to predict.

Although it was a 2-on-4 clutch, the friends in the live stream chat still held a glimmer of hope when they saw these two IDs.

……

"I'm not in a good position to move." Xu Beifang looked at his health and communicated quickly with Zywoo.

Zywoo nodded: "I'll go find them first. If we can't win the head-on fight, you just save your weapon."

During the first exchange of fire just now, Xu Beifang had been headshot by a FAMAS, and he was now down to one-shot health.

In a clutch with such a numerical disadvantage, it wasn't wise to move around recklessly.

Zywoo had to take the initiative to find an opportunity and make something happen, drawing everyone's attention to himself.

Only then would Xu Beifang have a chance to strike from the shadows and catch FURIA off guard.

"This round is critical. If FURIA loses this point, they won't have money for the next few rounds," MO said.

Ma Xixi shook his head: "But look at this, how could FURIA lose?"

He couldn't find a reason for FURIA to lose.

It was a 4-on-2 clutch, the bomb was dropped at the T-junction in K1, and FURIA could easily defend the bomb site.

On the Terrorist side, Xu Beifang was still at low health.

Just as Zywoo walked to the T-junction in K1 and prepared to pre-aim, he saw a smoke grenade fly in from the direction of the hatch, blocking his vision completely.

"If it's not working, just save the weapon," apEX said. "We really didn't expect him to pull out a sniper rifle this round."

This was what they had been proposing all along: some tactics must be tested in actual matches.

Only after trying them would they know where the problems lay and how to improve.

Playing against a team like FURIA that specialized in Nuke, quite a few problems had surfaced.

"It's indeed not easy to operate," Zywoo also fed back.

The opponents should have several people covering the defense, and the location where the bomb dropped was indeed awkward; there was no way to pick it up.

Xu Beifang took the initiative to touch Sanlou and looked at the situation in the inner site from there.

"Several people should have rotated to cover the defense." He considered the opponents' possible positions in his mind, then had an idea: "Don't move yet, you can try to make a play. I'll sneak down from the pipe in a moment, you help me put out some fake information."

As Xu Beifang said this, he used a silent movement technique to descend from Sanlou to the bomb site without a sound.

Then he held his gun and walked all the way toward the pipe.

Carefully arriving above the pipe, Xu Beifang signaled for Zywoo to make some footsteps.

Several FURIA members had already rotated to K1 and the bomb had been dropped; their plan was to just hold the bomb site steadily.

Footsteps suddenly came from the K1 entrance, instantly attracting the attention of all three of them.

But before they could see the enemy at the K1 entrance, VINI, who was inside the pipe, heard a "thud."

'Oh no, someone jumped into the pipe!'

Alarm bells rang in VINI's heart. He immediately turned to look at the pipe, but Xu Beifang didn't give him any chance to turn; he fired a spray, taking VINI out directly.

"Someone came down the pipe!!"

KASCRATO, who was at the hatch, immediately rushed up to trade the kill.

And the moment he got the kill, Xu Beifang wasn't greedy for more shots; he jumped backward and climbed up quickly.

Just as he had thought, the opponent's trade speed was very fast; the bullets were fired almost right at his ankles.

Zywoo also seemed to have God's perspective; the moment Xu Beifang got the kill, he immediately pulled out from the K1 entrance.

He saw a CT in his field of vision exposing a large side profile while spraying at the pipe.

He immediately fired a spray, taking KASCRATO down directly.

It seemed like a lot of action, but the exchange of fire happened in an instant.

"Vitality still wants to make a play. Xu Beifang took the initiative to jump down from the pipe, and VINI exposed his back to him and was taken out directly."

"But KASCRATO's trade was fast, yet Beifang's movement was even faster."

"And what's going on with Zywoo? He covered the trade here too," Ma Xixi was instantly stunned. "With 3 people defending the bomb, these two guys managed to take out two without taking any damage?"

【What kind of coordination is this between these two?】

【arT was too anxious, exposing such a big back to Zywoo.】

【What's going on with VINI? How can you not watch the pipe?】

【FURIA's bomb defense is truly humorous.】

【The coordination between Xu Beifang and Zywoo is truly terrifying; they managed to stretch FURIA's formation like this.】

【No way... could they actually turn this around?】

Seeing Zywoo and Xu Beifang take out two without taking damage, the three teammates already in the spectator area widened their eyes instantly.

JackZ clenched his right fist and had already raised it.

shox quickly reminded: "There's still a sniper in K1. arT isn't dead yet, he should be at the Dead Door."

"Let's bait for each other, I'll go first," Xu Beifang said quickly. Zywoo quickly gave an "mm-hmm," indicating he understood.

He jumped down from the pipe stairs, another "thud" sound.

He had to make the sound for arT to hear, and immediately after, he pulled out the only grenade he had left and threw it toward the Dead Door slope.

Although arT heard the sound from the pipe, he wasn't anxious; he kept his crosshair on the pipe and focused his attention on the T-junction in K1.

If someone came out on the left, he would pull the trigger.

If someone came out on the right, he would flick his sniper.

But a grenade exploded in his face, and the black smoke blocked his vision.

"Bang!"

【ZywOo headshot and killed arT with an AK47】

arT took his hands off the keyboard; the timing of that grenade was disgusting, he couldn't get any vision at all.

And Zywoo was just too accurate.

Even with the black smoke, he was headshot in one hit, giving him no chance to fight back.

Watching Zywoo take out arT with one shot, the voice chat was instantly filled with the shouts of the hype squad:

"2-on-1! 2-on-1!!"

"Don't rush, just stick together and trade!"

"Stay steady, you're going to turn this around!"

Relying on their silky-smooth coordination to deal with the opponent, Xu Beifang instantly felt his adrenaline surge, his teeth even feeling a bit itchy.

However, he wasn't overwhelmed by the adrenaline; instead, he said very rationally:

"You carry the bomb, I'll climb up first to check the situation at A site. If there's no one at A, you come over to plant."

Xu Beifang was already down to one-shot health.

If the remaining CT was still at A site, even if Xu Beifang was taken out, leaving Zywoo to play a 1-on-1 clutch would still be very manageable.

But if they rushed to have Zywoo probe the site, they might fall short at the last hurdle.

Xu Beifang climbed up to A site, closed the iron door, and then cleared the A bomb site with silent steps.

Confirming there was no one at A, Zywoo climbed up directly and planted a Main Entrance bomb.

After the two finished planting, they were very steady and hid directly inside the Yellow Room.

The last remaining player, ableJ, was very helpless and had to bite the bullet to take on this clutch.

He arrived at A bomb site and didn't find anyone in the first wave, so he could only wait for the Vitality players to come out.

After waiting a few seconds, he saw someone in the Yellow Room slide out with a wide peek.

"Bang!"

【Nice headshot and killed ableJ with an SG553】

ableJ rested his face in his hands, feeling somewhat depressed; he had lost another unwinnable clutch.

And not far from the match room, apEX had already stood up and was shouting toward their direction:

"2V4!!! They didn't even lose a single drop of health, what are you guys playing!!!"

He saw the Vitality players high-fiving and clapping each other, the atmosphere very heated.

Instead, the two protagonists of the clutch both had slight smiles on their faces, their expressions not exaggerated.

ableJ couldn't help but complain in his heart: It wasn't you who played, why are you acting like a fox borrowing a tiger's might!

He was very angry, but he had no way to talk back.

Because it was indeed true; in this 4V2, they hadn't even managed to touch the opponents.

Vitality's twin stars had simply used their individual ability and coordination to play them like a fiddle.

FURIA's economy officially collapsed; they hoped they could also use an individual ability burst to pull off an ECO comeback.

But for several consecutive rounds, they were gradually torn apart by Vitality, unable to form an effective defense head-on.

They also tried to comfort themselves, saying it was just because they didn't have long guns to play with.

But after entering the long gun rounds again, they found that their feel for the game had also started to change.

From this round on, Vitality kept taking points and reached match point.

It wasn't until match point that FURIA finally realized and called a timeout to calm themselves down.

With only one round left before being eliminated, they still wanted to save themselves.

The effect of the timeout was quite good; KASCRATO helped the team survive with a triple kill.

In the next round, Vitality sped up to rush A, and they also defended it narrowly.

Just when they thought there might be a comeback drama of "chasing down a dozen points."

Vitality used a crisp and clean speed rush through the Iron Plate and successfully entered B site.
