Chapter 431: The Day After CS Saint Body
"16:9, Vitality successfully took the first map of this BO3!" Wanjiqi shouted excitedly in the commentary booth, "Relying on outstanding performance to take down 100T's map pick, they have already reached the match point of this BO3, and every map from now on is 100T's final battle!"
The audience in the venue cheered constantly, and the audience below the stage waved the cheering sticks in their hands excitedly, offering applause for Vitality's outstanding performance.
Originally, the domestic fans were relatively neutral. Although everyone was more inclined to Vitality in their hearts, like Wanjiqi, many people would be relatively neutral and wouldn't show it too obviously. For example, if the inclination was too obvious, there would be some rhythm.
But Little Mustache's actions made them not need to cover up anymore. For a time, in the venue, even 100T's original fans supported Vitality more.
Little Mustache successfully used his own behavior to make his fans and neutral passersby stand on Vitality's side.
Huang Xu Dong added on the side: "It must be said that Vitality's middle map control on this map Mirage is quite outstanding. As long as the opponent comes to the middle to exchange fire, they can get a numerical advantage. If the opponent doesn't come to fight, they can also rely on the middle map control power to feed back to other positions to get advantages."
He originally felt that 100T had a lot of hope on this map. After all, 100T's speed-up playstyle was also quite strong, relying on fierce random rushing, frantically exchanging fast-paced numbers, and the twin stars' performance could be considered limited.
But unexpectedly, truly entering the match, Vitality still easily grasped the rhythm.
Although 100T's fast-paced offense in the first half played a few waves of surprise and got a few points.
But Vitality frantically made things happen in the early stage, directly disrupting 100T's rhythm. Later, 100T was iron-headed and wanted to control the middle, trying to make Vitality afraid to press forward, but the result was quite tragic.
Not to mention that after Little Mustache pointed his middle finger at the audience, Vitality didn't let the opponent get a single point.
"Beifang is indeed ruthless!" mo exclaimed, "Can only say as expected of the day after CS saint body accumulated for so many years!"
Xu Beifang is not like most genius teenagers who contact csgo at a very young age, and then rush into the professional circle.
Because he likes to record, all his growth trajectories can be checked.
His experience is very inspirational for the whole go circle, so domestically, people tease that Xu Beifang is a saint body cultivated by himself the day after.
"It must be said that this day after CS saint body is too outrageous. Do you remember that wave where Beifang swayed Little Mustache's big sniper three times in a row? It was all relying on techniques to play, and it was all pulled full."
In front of Xu Beifang's operation, Little Mustache's big sniper appeared a bit clownish instead.
Xu Beifang didn't care about these details. After Map 1 ended, he drank some water, "Brothers played well, don't give opportunities on Map 2, directly flatten the opponent in one wave."
"The opponent came to disgust people like this, then we don't need to test them, just pull it full."
Zywoo nodded: "No problem, I'm in good condition today."
The smooth taking of Map 1 also let apEX vent his anger, and he still felt unfinished.
After considering, he opened his mouth and said: "100T plays quite recklessly on this map, let's take the initiative to run, and use the linkage of several angles to play."
Nuke is a map that eats communication and proficiency, because the map structure is relatively small, but there are many channels, leading to frequent timing leaks. In this case, communication and experience are particularly important.
And on this map, Vitality is obviously much better than 100T.
They are quite confident in their map pick.
After discussing the early offensive ideas for a while, their topic soon returned to 100T, and they didn't understand until now: "Why did Little Mustache point his middle finger?"
"Because of the timing problem, I was a bit annoyed, and after finally saving money to start a big sniper, I was hand-torn by Nice. We played, the scene was quiet, Nice tore me, the scene cheered frantically, and then the mentality exploded."
Facing the teammates' questioning, Little Mustache answered after a long silence.
AZR, who was the commander and captain, looked at Little Mustache in surprise: "So, it's just purely broken defense?"
He didn't understand, he pointed his middle finger at the audience just because of this.
JKS didn't speak, just turned his head silently, looking at Little Mustache with a speechless expression of "this guy is so brave".
The expressions of others were also about the same.
Before in the match, Little Mustache suddenly stood up and pointed his middle finger at the audience. They couldn't understand, but they thought about what happened to make Little Mustache make that action.
Now Little Mustache told them that it was because of the audience's differential treatment?
JKS laughed disdainfully in his heart.
He didn't feel it anyway. He remembered quite clearly that he had several performances, and the cheers of the audience were not small.
Although it was not as loud as when Nice and Zywoo performed, this was normal.
After all, this is Nice's home court.
If they were playing in Australia, they would definitely enjoy this home court advantage.
This is the same everywhere in the world.
If Little Mustache was participating in an offline major tournament for the first time, then he would believe this reason.
But they had already played for more than a year, and they had participated in various major tournaments, and their offline experience was quite rich.
You say it's because of the audience's differential treatment, it's better to say it's because he was broken defense by Nice, and he would understand it even more.
As the commander, AZR was not polite at all and scolded directly.
Although the referee behind couldn't understand, watching AZR frantically output, he also felt a burst of refreshment.
But after scolding, AZR turned around and calmed their emotions.
As the team's commander, he still wanted to continue playing, even if he already knew that in this state, it was very difficult to enter Map 3.
But Map 1 had just ended, and he couldn't just raise the white flag and surrender.
He could only continue to play down.
And Nuke is a big CT map. Even if they can't win, they should be able to get a good-looking score... AZR thought so in his heart.
However, after truly entering Map 2, AZR's hanging heart finally died.
Because as soon as they came up, they were beaten 10:1.
"Too ruthless!" In the stands, Danking looked at the score on the big screen and gasped, "This is completely not treating the opponent as a person."
Xiaogui hummed twice, looking at 100T calling a timeout, and just commented lightly: "I can only say good death, pointing middle finger on our territory, this kind of NT operation is really done by him."
Then he glanced at Little Mustache's data, 11 rounds finished, KD was only a pitiful 2/10.
This guy had been beaten until he was completely not a person.
100T's only point was won by Jkeam's performance, the rest of the rounds Vitality was beating 100T throughout.
Returning to the game game itself, Xiaogui also thought 100T played too straight on this map.
Their front might have just finished a numerical exchange, and Vitality's flank had already been defended in place.
So, once the fighting started, the 100T members were still retaking, while Vitality's attacks from several angles were already synchronized and in place.
Always playing and playing, 100T entered a numerical disadvantage.
Even the twin stars didn't play any big highlights, everyone in Vitality was performing.
In this case, the twin stars integrated into the team to cooperate with the attack, and easily won the game.
100T called two timeouts in a row, seeming to want to use this way to cool down Vitality's feel and try to find problems.
But after the timeout, they still couldn't get points.
Finally, the first half match was fixed at an exaggerated score of 14:1.
The audience below the stage saw this scene, and one by one they cheered excitedly.
They didn't ask for Vitality to play any monstrous performance, as long as they won.
But the current situation was an unexpected joy for them.
After a short halftime break, although Little Mustache was not a person, JKS and Jkeam, the two big brothers of 100T, really didn't want to end the IEM Beijing journey like this.
The two of them performed in the pistol round, successfully played a double five
After taking the pistol round, 100T rode the momentum of that bonus to take two more points.
Xu Beifang and his teammates didn't care much about these few rounds; to sum it up, it was a problem caused by weapon disadvantage. A comeback would have been a pleasant surprise, but not winning was also normal.
However, once they entered the long gun rounds, they didn't intend to give 100T any room for a turnaround.
"What do you say, Shushu, do you want to play the sniper?" Jack asked. During the ECO round, he had specifically saved up quite a bit of economy, preparing to pull out a big sniper rifle for this long gun round.
Zywoo shook his head: "My positioning isn't great, I'll just play with a rifle near the warehouse this round."
Xu Beifang looked at his own position, tossed an M4 to Jack, and suggested: "Jack, give me the sniper, I'll go to the iron plate this round, and shox can be my bodyguard."
Upon hearing this, Jack directly dropped a big sniper rifle to Xu Beifang, and shox also got ready.
Then, after the countdown ended, they walked toward the iron plate together.
"How is 100T attacking this round? They're still blowing the door at the start, then throwing a pipe smoke and a main entrance smoke, intending to go down the pipe early. But Zywoo sprayed a magazine of bullets at the main entrance, scaring them off directly. Jack jumped onto the yellow room and immediately followed up with a fire inside the iron door, blocking your speed."
"They also threw a first-line smoke on the outside, leaning toward a set attack to go down K1."
Wanjiqi was analyzing the situation quickly when the director suddenly cut the camera to the B-tunnel corner.
Xu Beifang and shox had already used the deep B-tunnel fire thrown at the start to push forward from the iron plate.
"In this first long gun round, is Beizige being this aggressive? He's directly bringing people to push the Terrorist hall. JKS is holding from the iron plate direction, and his hand is still quite hot right now. What's going to happen here?"
Xu Beifang had opened his scope early and pushed forward all the way. He first confirmed that no one was camping the corner holding the gap, securing the left side of the B-tunnel, before signaling: "shox, you just watch the right."
shox was pre-aiming at the close point, performing a preparatory action—a good habit he had learned from Xu Beifang.
Then he peeked and crouched.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
【JKS used AK47 to headshot kill shox】
"There's one at the close point! I tapped his head but he didn't die!" After being counter-killed, shox shouted in pain immediately.
The pre-aiming for this play was fine, and the reaction was fine; it was just the weapon disadvantage that led to losing the duel.
Upon hearing this, Xu Beifang also pulled out his pistol directly and swung out, firing a shot at JKS.
"Pfft!"
【Nice+shox used USP to kill JKS】
"Both sides traded a headshot. shox played well enough, but due to the weapon disadvantage, Beifang pulled out his pistol to trade. Gratisfaction came over with an AK to trade, but Beifang jumped back after firing; he didn't follow up!"
After completing the trade, Xu Beifang saw the opponent's intention to trade back and immediately jumped backward.
The moment he retreated to cover, he hurriedly switched back to the big sniper and opened his scope quickly.
Since the opponent didn't get the trade immediately, it was now his turn.
Relying on the advantage of the sniper rifle's peek, he pushed forward in one scope.
As a sniper, Gratisfaction subconsciously went to JKS's corpse after failing to get the trade on the first wave.
But after hearing the sound of Xu Beifang opening his scope, he realized the problem.
The opponent was coming directly to push him; he had to find a way to break the deadlock, so he immediately called for help in voice chat and kept shaking in a small position, ready to wide-peek Xu Beifang at any time.
As his teammates slowly arrived at the B-tunnel, he felt a sense of security.
But before his teammates could get into position to execute a double-peek strategy, the sound of the sniper rifle had already rung out again.
"——Bang!"
【Nice used AWP to kill Gratisfaction】
"Gratisfaction, did you think you could react in time? Can your teammates help?"
"Oh! Beifang realized it and pulled back immediately; Jkeam didn't land that shot either! Beifang repeeked with the sniper and fired another shot—100T has already collapsed!"
The audience at the venue was cheering excitedly, and Wanjiqi was also shouting excitedly at the commentary desk: "Nice!! This sniper show in B-tunnel, after a triple kill, even the bomb dropped into his field of vision. Now 100T can't play anymore!"
"Beifang still has utility in his hands to stall for time, but he didn't throw it at all, instead pushing forward with the sniper to take control of the Terrorist hall. It seems no one can face him!"
"Using a sniper to kill your rifles is like slaughtering pigs and dogs. This round is a complete teaching session, just teaching you how a sniper is played!"
Harry Potter, who had been holding the iron door, was numb. He was just doing his default when his teammates started dying left and right.
His hand wasn't feeling very good, so he didn't intend to face Xu Beifang in the B-tunnel, instead looking for an opportunity from the site area.
"apEX is creeping forward directly from the site; he thinks the opponent might be going to deal with Beifang, but the opponent was just guarding against him, and he didn't win this duel."
"Alright, Harry Potter traded one kill back. Now it's a 2-on-3 clutch, but when will the Terrorists pick up the bomb?"
In a 2-on-3 clutch, besides the bomb being in Xu Beifang's field of vision, 100T seems to have brought this clutch back to life.
Could it be that 100T really has a chance for a comeback in the second half?
The audience at the venue felt a bit uneasy.
Harry Potter actively threw a smoke grenade at the B-tunnel entrance, obscuring the entire location of the bomb.
Then he jumped directly into the smoke, using a spin jump to pick up the bomb.
The first jump in was successful, and he picked up the bomb. Combining this with the information he just got, he immediately told his teammates to go to A site together. As long as they could plant the bomb, the 2-on-3 clutch was still playable.
But the next second, the sound of the sniper rifle rang out again.
"——Bang!"
【Nice used AWP to wallbang headshot kill Liazz】
"Oh!!!"
Exclamations erupted at the venue, and the audience inside the arena was shocked by this kill.
"Huh?" The three commentators at the desk were stunned for a moment. Ma Xixi reacted quickly: "It's this 1.6 wallbang again! This time he's wallbanging from B-tunnel back into the Terrorist hall!"
【??】
【Huh?】
【Investigate him】
【Starting again?】
【You have a frame and you don't shoot?】
【A second-stage BOSS, it's normal to have more special effects】
AZR, who was left, looked at Liazz's corpse, hurriedly picked up the bomb, quickly entered A site, and planted it directly.
However, after the bomb was planted, he was also held and killed directly by Jack, who was next to the pipe.
Watching Xu Beifang quietly defusing the bomb, Wanjiqi couldn't help but comment: "He can't deal with the opponent's utility, but he just needs to deal with the people!"
"I can only say he's worthy of being Vitality's star player, too awesome!"
Ma Xixi said from the side: "Director, do you understand? Give us a replay to see how Beifang operated."
The director quickly provided a wonderful replay of the retake, showing the wonderful scenes from the first few duels in B-tunnel where Xu Beifang used that sniper rifle to take down the 100T members one by one.
However, the audience at the venue was even more curious about Xu Beifang's POV when Harry Potter died.
Zhao Gan also fulfilled their wish and released his POV.
Seeing the opponent smoke, Xu Beifang immediately thought of 100T's plan.
However, he first retreated backward, worried that 100T would throw a smoke-hidden flash to clear him.
Immediately after hearing the sound of the Terrorists' footsteps moving away, he realized they were picking up the bomb, and then began to listen for positioning, preparing to wallbang Harry Potter.
Then, looking from the god's-eye view, Xu Beifang's crosshair was basically following Liazz.
Finally, he killed him with one precise wallbang headshot.
The director even gave the victim's POV; after Harry Potter used a spin jump to pick up the bomb in the smoke, he had originally breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly being killed, he just shrugged his shoulders, his face full of confusion.
"This Harry Potter is blown up, he has grievances he can't even speak of!" Wanjiqi said with a smile.
Ma Xixi shrugged: "What can he do? The opponent has dirty stuff, haha."
The match had already reached match point, and 100T was still able to scrape together a long gun round by planting the bomb.
"Beifang's sniper rifle came directly to the outside at the start. This guy still doesn't take the usual path; he didn't hold an angle in the warehouse, but jumped directly onto the blue box outside the warehouse to hold the sniper."
"On the inside, Jack actively threw a fire on the yellow room, then threw a flash and pushed forward into the Terrorist hall!"
"Jack used an MP9 to blow one away, is there a second one? The headshot didn't kill."
"But apEX's trade came! Harry Potter inside the iron door immediately walked out wanting to trade apEX, but shox also pushed up from the iron plate. In this wave, everyone on Vitality except Beifang is pushing forward!"
"They traded 1-for-3 inside the Terrorist hall, and Beifang's unconventional positioning also earned him a kill. At 1 minute 20 seconds, only JKS is left on the outside facing this 1-on-4 clutch!"
JKS was carefully pre-aiming at Xu Beifang's position, worried that Xu Beifang would repeek.
But he never expected that apEX's movement was faster than Xu Beifang's. After clearing the Terrorist hall and confirming his position,
apEX ran directly to the water tank outside, and as he outputted a wave of damage into JKS's back,
bullets poured crazily onto JKS's body, and the match screen froze.
……
