Chapter 462: 17 Set a small goal first, win the Shanghai Major!

~13 min read 2,407 words

"16:14!" Maniac shouted loudly in the stream, "Then let us congratulate Complexity!"

"They successfully advanced to the next playoffs in this loser's bracket BO3 confrontation!"

This was just a group stage confrontation, but it determined which team could enter the offline match; fans were still quite looking forward to this kind of confrontation concerning quotas.

Plus, the IEM Chengdu station match was very "sunny," which led to more people in the stream.

【C9 is one move short】

【I thought they could enter map three】

【That 2V5 late-game was too painful, otherwise without this turning point, C9 wouldn't have lost】

【I can only say this C9 lineup is a bit toxic; every time in important matches, they are always just that little bit short】

【I remember that round and it's hard to be conflicted; electronic could even be knifed by a teammate】

【Hahaha, now I can go offline to see Beifang】

The director gave the camera to Complexity's match room; the tall Xu Beifang had a smile on his face, hugging and celebrating with his teammates beside him.

"This match was the ultimate MVP for Beifang." Maniac commented, "Beifang played Ancient truly top-tier; although the performance of others was not very good, he was always killing people, and there were too many critical rounds that he took."

"That TOP1 is back, brothers."

Under the camera, Xu Beifang hugged and celebrated with his teammates; Danking said with a bit of emotion: "When we really fought, C9 was much stronger than we imagined."

On this Ancient, he felt he was still playing quite restrained.

How to describe it?

It was that they clearly had the strength, but many times they couldn't use it; this feeling was quite strange.

Xu Beifang smiled: "Normal, after all, this is C9's chosen map, they definitely prepared more than us, but we really didn't play particularly well on this map today; winning more relied on C9 giving opportunities..."

"You grabbed those opportunities very well." Elige said with a light smile, "That round with you and NiKo was really critical."

jks on the side also echoed: "I was eye-opened."

Xu Beifang laughed loudly; NiKo was praised like a little girl, his ears were red, and he was a bit embarrassed.

"But that point was also clever; although my HP was healthy at the time, it was only a matter of two knives." Xu Beifang couldn't help but look at the opposite side, "I really didn't expect electronic to be knifed by Perfecto."

A group of people beside them couldn't help but laugh.

electronic jokes never go out of style in the GO circle.

It's just that no one noticed that T. C, who was usually laughing, frowned while looking at Xu Beifang's post-match stats and score.

At this time, the post-match stats of everyone on map two were also released in the stream.

Although it was everyone, Xu Beifang's exaggerated stats still easily attracted everyone's attention.

Broky in the lounge sprayed his cola directly.

"Holy crap, this Nice!" Rain also looked stunned.

He hadn't been paying attention to this match all the time; he watched half and went to brush his phone. Hearing Broky's surprised shout, he looked up and was instantly stupid.

ID: Nice

K/A/D: 43/8/19

ADR: 133.3

Rating: 2.33

In the 30-round confrontation, Xu Beifang got 43 kills and 8 assists.

"C9's first is Perfecto, second is Boombl4, but the two combined only have 42 kills." Coldzera felt his scalp tingling, "He really uses one person as two, even killing more than two people combined!"

Coldzera opened his phone and came to the IEM official stream, finding that the stream had already been screen-filled by the barrage.

【Is this the limit of personal ability?】

【Isn't this an entry-fragger gap? Nice got 30 more kills than A Le; compared to this, A Le is completely not human】

【Fun fact: Nice is an IGL now?】

【Whose IGL is so wild?】

【To be fair, these other Complexity guys are also not human; Beifang carried so hard and they still won so arduously】

【It's like this with a big brother leading; Beifang only needs to kill people, NiKo and others need to consider more】

【The ditch-digger Ming-style is still attacking me】

After a simple celebration, Xu Beifang led the team toward C9's match room.

For the few old opponents of the former "NAVI," he was still quite nostalgic; after all, he hadn't seen them for a long time.

Watching Xu Beifang lead the team toward the C9 match room, the director also pushed the camera this way.

After losing the match, Boombl4's expression was not very good, sitting on the gaming chair putting on his shoes.

electronic on the side was gnawing on his fingers, a bit out of his mind, but the dull expression unexpectedly gave people a sense of humor.

It wasn't until Xu Beifang reached out to him that electronic came back to his senses.

"Long time no see."

The bright man in front of him overlapped with the figure of the big boy from the past.

As one of their strongest opponents during their peak period, they had studied Nice countless times, and this face had also left a deep impression in their minds.

"Back again, you are still as Carry as ever." Just like before, Xu Beifang's presence in the game was always so intense.

Xu Beifang raised his eyebrows: "You too, still... so unlucky."

electronic's smiling face instantly collapsed; he gritted his back teeth and said: "Don't tear down the hard-to-break!"

"I know you won't be angry." Xu Beifang laughed, "Played well today."

"But in the end, I still lost to you." Electronic smiled helplessly. Thinking of the upcoming schedule, he said dejectedly, "I wish you a good result in the playoffs."

Xu Beifang nodded: "Then I'll borrow your words, but I think it's a bit difficult; we actually have quite a few problems with our synergy."

electronic was a bit surprised; he actually felt it in the game, because in this confrontation, Xu Beifang's influence was not as strong as in the CS: GO era.

From the stats, Xu Beifang was still terrifying, but the period of exertion was different.

In the past, Xu Beifang exerted force in the early stage, getting the first kill not long after the round started, and making articles from the first kill.

But now he was more inclined to exert force in the mid-game or late-game, which actually had less influence on the match.

He initially thought it was just a "case" of one match, but didn't expect Xu Beifang to admit it actively.

However, neither of them said anything.

For one thing, even if Complexity had synergy problems, he had already been eliminated.

Even if he hadn't been eliminated, there was no way to make any articles out of this.

Instead, it would be quite difficult to deal with, because a new team during the synergy period could change their playstyle every day.

Xu Beifang bid farewell to electronic, and heard NiKo and A Le chatting about injury problems.

A Le also had a big heart, helplessly indicating that the injury really had a great influence on his state; he was very painful, but in the end, he was powerless.

After the Complexity players shook hands with the C9 players after the match, they left one after another.

Every team had its own problems.

Xu Beifang believed that their overall playstyle was still in the adjustment period and needed adjustment and trial and error.

The current playstyle couldn't exert his full strength.

And the problem C9 encountered was finding a harmonious point; individual players had hard strength.

C9's group of people now had very good hard strength, but putting them together actually had a 1+1<2 effect.

Plus the instability of players caused by CS, and A Le's injury problem.

This team didn't know where it would go in the future... Xu Beifang sighed inexplicably.

He led his teammates away; the atmosphere in C9's room was a bit low. Until a long time later, A Le spat out a few words from his throat, "That round shouldn't have been lost."

Everyone had quite a few problems in that point, but he, who let people pass due to timing, definitely had to carry the big pot.

So he was a bit unwilling, and also a bit self-blaming.

Actually, entering map three didn't necessarily mean winning.

But map two actually had quite a bit of hope, but hope was destroyed in their hands.

The usually dull electronic watched where Complexity left, murmuring in his mouth: "It's already meaningless."

Xu Beifang thought about some problems he thought of in map two, originally intending to go back and deal with them directly.

But he didn't expect to meet Captain Mo after the match. After communication, the Complexity group was invited to a lounge for a simple post-match interview.

Mo greeted with a smile: "Congratulations on winning today's match, this interview is also quite simple, just asking some questions from the friends in the 321123 stream."

Xu Beifang immediately answered: "The friends' questions are generally a bit abnormal, I understand you too well, like which nightclub does NiKo like to play at? How many centimeters is Elige from the monitor? How many times does jks turn around in a round? How many ways does Danking have to go offline? These are the questions, right."

Mo instantly widened his eyes; you really can't say that, these few questions really hooked him.

But Xu Beifang said directly in the next second: "But I don't know either."

Mo instantly slumped his face.

He and Tie Dan laughed hee hee hee.

After a slight tease, Captain Mo became serious and started the first question: "Mingrixing just asked, who among the Huaxia players do the others have the deepest impression of?"

Hearing this, Danking looked at Mo as if looking at a fool.

Xu Beifang didn't wait for Mingrixing, and casually translated it to NiKo and others.

Then the answers of several people were no surprise.

"Nice!"

This was why Danking looked at Mo with the eyes of a fool.

As the most outstanding player in Huaxia CS today, Xu Beifang's peak moment was too crazy, and even his current level was quite high.

Regardless of achievements, personal level, honors, or the tension of performance in the game, he was the number one person among Huaxia players.

This was a topic that didn't need to be asked.

"Okay, then let's ask, you just got the qualification for the IEM Chengdu playoffs, how do you feel now?"

Xu Beifang smiled: "Returning to the arena, what I look forward to most is the cheers and shouts of the audience, so my mood now is actually a bit excited."

"Are you looking forward to the offline stage match?" Mo continued to ask.

"Of course." Xu Beifang had some nostalgia in his eyes, "For a CS: GO player, the cheers and shouts of the audience are the greatest reward... oh, no, it should be CS2."

Team Mo also laughed brightly: "I think the atmosphere in Chengdu won't let you down, you plus Danking, Complexity can be considered a home team, enjoy those sounds to your heart's content then."

"Saying that makes me a bit nervous."

At this time, Mingrixing on the side asked: "Can you tell us why you chose to come back? Quite a few people are curious about this."

After all, this time node really didn't have any special points.

After the online era passed, CS ushered in the offline stage, everyone thought Xu Beifang would come back, but he didn't.

When the last CS: GO Major came, they also thought Xu Beifang would come back, but there was still no news.

After CS2 came, they felt Xu Beifang would come back at this time point, but there was still no person in the circle.

It wasn't until the recent off-season that he suddenly formed a team and came back, which made quite a few people excited, and they were also a bit curious about why Xu Beifang chose to return at this time point.

Xu Beifang shrugged: "The main thing is that I've rested enough, if I continue to rest, I guess I'll have to train little Nice to play professionally from zero."

Hearing his unreliable words, the friends in the CSBOY stream were happy.

Because these words were too real, there were no long-winded speeches about honor or ideals.

He said these words as if after the last job ended, he chose to rest for a long time because of excessive fatigue, feeling that if he continued to rest, he would be ruined, so he chose to find a second job, quite relaxed.

【The most anticipated episode!】

【Resting and making little people every day, right】

【Beifang is confused, this doesn't delay anything at all, father and son on the battlefield!】

【So this is the son of the Great Emperor in the novel!】

【Don't look forward to it, when little Nice is three or four years old and kills us on the platform, that won't be fun】

【When the real genius boy is born】

【...】

Friends always look at things from strange angles; Xu Beifang just felt that if he continued to rest, if he had a child, it would be hard to come back.

NiKo squeezed his eyes after hearing Danking's translation: "It's okay, after your baby comes out, the talent will definitely be higher than yours, then you take your baby, I go back and pull m0nesy, and then call Zywoo casually, the five of us will be invincible."

For NiKo's unreliable words, Xu Beifang's reaction was to roll his eyes.

God-damn CS father and son on the battlefield.

"Then after coming back, for this match, or some future matches, do you have any goals?" Mingrixing said.

Although the chat interview was just a few questions, several people answered one after another, and the time spent was not small.

So she prepared to ask the last question and end it.

"Goal?" Xu Beifang pinched his finger joints, thinking, "This IEM Chengdu is the first match of our Complexity lineup, so we are mainly focusing on synergy, and didn't set specific goals, it can be said that we are enjoying every match."

"But if you say for future matches, I do have a small goal."

Mingrixing immediately asked: "What?"

"Set a small goal first, win the Shanghai Major simply." Xu Beifang said so.
