Chapter 477: 32Just give him a back and he'll be honest!

Entering the first gun round of Vertigo, NIKO issued the orders for this round:

"We'll still focus on default map control, testing G2's defensive habits in the gun round."

These old guys all have a common habit: they all like to do basic probing in the first gun round, rather than unfolding tactics as aggressive as fire.

Unconventional tactics can sometimes achieve miraculous effects, but they are in a round with a score advantage, so it's a bit unnecessary to play unconventionally at this time.

Xu Beifang and NIKO controlled the A slope as usual, Danking held the Mid, and Elige and JKS slowly probed under the B slope.

In the early stages, both sides were exchanging basic utility and didn't have intense firefights.

But in the second timing, JKS caught a very good opportunity and gathered all the information under the B slope.

Because Xu Beifang and NIKO were worried that m0nesy might be holding a sniper, their pushing rhythm was relatively slow. So, hearing JKS's information, Xu Beifang signaled NIKO to follow the main force and launch an attack directly from the B slope.

He himself pushed forward slowly from the A slope, ready to kill the rotating CTs at any time.

And to his delight, good news soon came from the upper right corner.

【Elige killed nexa with a MAC-10 headshot】

"nexa didn't beat the Mac-10 with a rifle!! This nexa!!" Ma Xixi couldn't believe it.

MO also commented on the side: "This nexa's marksmanship is almost catching up to Xixi's."

The G2 fans in the stream were even more dumbfounded.

【Is this nexa a human!】

【Pizza!!!】

【Don't be afraid of the Mac-10, nexa can't beat it at all!】

【Isn't this an actor?】

【We still don't understand why G2 management replaced nexa with JKS】

【The difference is clear, family members】

"However, nexa's death helped attract attention for dupreeh. dupreeh is at the Dead Pillar; this position is very uncomfortable. How many can he kill?"

"dupreeh peeked out and killed one, killed two!!" Ma Xixi also shouted, "Is there a third one?"

"Pity, Ji Ge still provided the trade, but the bomb was dropped!"

The situation at B site suddenly changed drastically. dupreeh dragged their offensive rhythm by force with his own strength.

Ji Ge traded dupreeh, but the bomb was dropped. He needed a certain amount of time to pick up the bomb and couldn't convert this clutch defense into an attack for the time being.

However, Xu Beifang wasn't in a hurry and spoke up: "We don't have to rush the front. I've already snuck up from A-small. This A site seems empty! You guys try to rotate to A!"

He caught an extraordinary timing. As long as his teammates could rotate back, they would be the side with the advantage in the 3v3 clutch.

NIKO and Elige also came over according to his orders, while Xu Beifang waited quietly in the Sniper Room for the timing, ready to intercept the rotating CTs at any time.

But while he was still waiting, he suddenly heard a shout from the voice chat: "Someone's coming from the back!"

Immediately after, the sound of gunfire appeared, and two kills appeared in the upper right corner.

【m0nesy killed NIKO with an M4A1 headshot】

【m0nesy+dupreeh killed Elige with an M4A1】

"My bad." NIKO said self-reproachfully in the voice chat, "I guessed there might be a timing, but I couldn't beat m0nesy."

Facing this situation, Xu Beifang had no choice.

There were 30 seconds left, but in a 1v3 clutch, not to mention the opponents were guarding the bomb.

The difficulty of wanting to win was too great; he could only save his gun.

He caught an extraordinary timing, but m0nesy also caught it.

As the countdown returned to zero, G2 finally secured the first round of Vertigo.

In the fifth round, COL chose to push quickly at the A area, wanting to hit a fast rhythm to take the A slope first before considering where to execute the bomb.

However, this speed-up didn't have a very good effect.

It wasn't that they made any heaven-defying mistakes, but that m0nesy's feel for the game had been activated in the previous round. This round, he was "swimming like a dragon" at the A slope. Although Xu Beifang also got two kills, it was still difficult to open up the A slope defense.

Relying on m0nesy's outstanding performance, G2 broke COL's economy at the cost of only one submachine gun and one rifle.

The score reached 3:2.

The advantage brought by the pistol round had been slowly chased back by G2, and G2 only needed to take one more point for their early advantage to be completely gone.

But facing G2 wanting to tie the score, the COL group didn't have any good methods because they were out of money.

A clever woman can't cook without rice, and NIKO, as a "force-buy IGL," couldn't fight a war without an economy.

So in the preparation stage of the sixth round, he was quite straightforward.

"Danking, you have to save money to buy a sniper rifle. Others must save at least two thousand. I don't have any good ideas for this round either; everyone play freely."

Having said that, NIKO himself prepared a half-armor Desert Eagle.

As the world's best Desert Eagle user for front and side angles, he liked to use the Desert Eagle to find opportunities in such rounds.

Xu Beifang simply prepared a Tec-9, not even buying armor, because his economy was a bit low.

And, he had a good idea.

He looked at Danking, and then turned silently to look at Ji Ge: "Ji Ge, let's do a combo. Send me flying out directly?"

Elige had no objections.

Danking on the side wasn't having it.

"Beifang, why don't you find me to coordinate with you!"

Xu Beifang just smiled quietly.

NIKO on the side told the truth: "Your movement is about the same as S1mple's. Don't send Beifang jumping down directly."

Danking's movement wasn't outstanding. It wasn't that he couldn't do it—for example, jumping to the Shed on Inferno or jumping to B-small on Mirage, he was very good at those individual operations—but operations requiring coordination were a bit strenuous.

Xu Beifang also understood; after all, when he was at Tyloo before, the frequency of Danking using these things wasn't high.

It wasn't like them playing matches here in Europe, where techniques like runboost were very frequent in matches and training.

The countdown ended, and Xu Beifang and Elige went straight to the runboost position, preparing the preparatory actions for the double-boost flying man.

JKS actively said at this time: "Tell me when you act. I'll give a flashbang from below to assist your push."

Xu Beifang had no objections. With a flashbang helping, sometimes even if it only half-blinds the opponents, it can provide him with no small help.

"The kid's feel for the game has been activated. He is now 8/3 in stats, somewhat unstoppable." Ma Xixi was still savoring m0nesy's aiming from the brilliant kill replay when he saw Xu Beifang and Elige had already stood ready for the Vertigo flying-man move.

"Are they flying out this wave? 3, 2, 1, fly!"

The two coordinated well, and Xu Beifang was launched directly.

On this map, double-boost flying man is the basic content of their training, and it's hard for them to make mistakes.

Xu Beifang was launched directly. In the air, he used the spin-jump mechanism to turn directly. At the same time, the sound of a flashbang exploding came from the right.

He knew this was JKS's flashbang, and at the same time, he saw two CTs in his field of vision raising their hands to wipe their eyes.

Xu Beifang's breathing began to deepen. He understood that JKS's flashbang had created an extraordinary timing for him.

Originally, this was just a trial in the early stages.

But now, this clever timing gave them the possibility of a comeback!

"G2's two people who pushed to the front point were both blinded. Beifang caught a very good opportunity. The Tec-9 is firing wildly. Killed one, killed two!!"

"The B area was directly broken through by this flying man!"

With two kills in a row, in the eyes of the audience at the scene saying "WTF," Xu Beifang picked up the weapon dropped by dupreeh and rushed toward the bomb site.

Although he got two kills, for this round, he hadn't won yet.

He had to hurry to seize the position at the front point so that he would have a chance for the team to plant the bomb at B and coordinate to win this round.

But the thing he worried about finally happened.

m0nesy was holding an angle at Mid this round. Xu Beifang pushed directly after killing the two CTs at B, only to see someone already holding his position at the Jump Platform.

Eye to eye, the two engaged in a firefight, but Xu Beifang had no armor this round. The first shot didn't hit m0nesy's head, and there was no chance to operate afterward.

"Pity, if there was half-armor, Beifang might have won this wave." Ma Xixi said, "But he still opened up the situation for the team. At least now there are guns to pick up at B area..."

But just as his voice fell, he saw dupreeh at Mid throw a set of utility at the B-stairs entrance.

Incendiary grenade to delay time, HE grenade to try to bleed health.

Although that HE grenade didn't bleed health, it blew nexa's gun away.

MO said somewhat helplessly: "Your mouth..."

Ma Xixi's "poisonous milk" was a bit too powerful. One second he said COL had guns to pick up, the next second nexa's gun was also blown away. In that case, both guns were near the B bomb site, and COL couldn't pick up guns to improve combat effectiveness.

The match fell into a brief silence.

dupreeh's utility came at a critical time, helping to relieve m0nesy's defensive pressure and also causing the COL group to start organizing the second wave of offense.

Xu Beifang officially transformed into a "Fountain Commander" and began to analyze: "There are 3 left on the opponents' side. It should be one person standing at the Jump Platform, Mid, and A area respectively. It's also possible that A site is completely empty."

"Then why don't we try rotating to A?" Elige suggested, "Rotating to A now might have a chance to touch an empty A site."

Xu Beifang shook his head: "The possibility isn't great, because the opponents' utility cut off our rhythm. Their pressure at B area isn't great, so they should be acting in split forces."

"We can try to release a rotation footstep, and then we'll try hitting B again."

Now the game theory is actually not easy to operate. The opponents' wave of utility was very critical, directly taking away the initiative.

They were instead passive and could only perform some game theory from the existing conditions.

The guns weren't good, so Xu Beifang could only let them gather together.

Let Danking and JKS, who had no armor, come over to pull the gun line, and let Elige and NIKO, who had half-armor, try to operate.

If they successfully tricked the CT at Mid to A site by relying on game theory in the second timing, then there would still be a chance to take the B site by trading.

Leaving Elige to hold the flank at B slope, the others began to rotate to A area.

And then they seemed to accidentally release a rotation footstep.

In reality, everyone was walking back silently.

"It's over. COL didn't continue to push forward. They didn't know at all that hunter had already pushed to the Yellow Cloth corner. He gathered all the information this wave!"

"The COL group turned around, preparing to gather and hit B, but they didn't know at all that someone was tailing them from behind,"

"The G2 duo has already rotated to reinforce the B area. dupreeh is holding at the Headshot position, ready to act at any time, and m0nesy is also in a position where he can reinforce quickly. This wave, COL has already rushed into G2's net!"

Xu Beifang issued the order, and the front directly started an explosive bomb attack.

"Threw an Electric Box smoke, and another one in the sky. The main force acts directly!"

"But with wolves in front and tigers behind, can COL really break in this wave?"

Danking was a Glock with no armor, and he didn't intend to shrink back to output damage at all, walking forward jumping and hopping, transforming into a human flashbang to help his teammates pull the gun line and get information.

And the next second, he saw a CT sway out near the Headshot position, and then the M4A1 sprayed wildly, directly melting him in the air.

"There are two near the Headshot position!!" Danking loudly passed the information he got from the death perspective.

JKS behind him had no armor and was also killed by stray bullets on the battlefield.

Elige's position was relatively disconnected. This was played intentionally, intending to let the two brothers in front get information, and they would rely on the Desert Eagle to pre-aim and operate.

So after his teammate reported the point, he also saw dupreeh pulling out, raised his Desert Eagle, and fired a shot at dupreeh.

But the first shot didn't hit the head, and just as he wanted to fire the second shot, the bullets of an AK47 rang out from behind, directly killing him.

【hunter+hooxi killed Elige with an AK47】

"Someone's coming from the back!" Elige shouted.

NIKO naturally also got this information, but the first thing he did was help Elige trade.

He peeked out from the B-stairs, threw a shot at the Headshot position, and then his crosshair instantly pulled to the lower right corner.

The next moment, a figure carrying an AK pulled out from the B1 layer and bumped into NIKO's crosshair.

"Bang!"

【NIKO+Elige killed hooxi with a Desert Eagle headshot】

【NIKO killed hunter with a Desert Eagle headshot】

"The front directly started an explosive bomb push, but they didn't know at all that dupreeh had already reached the back. Elige wanted to trade, but dupreeh came faster!"

"Only NIKO is left, the position has been locked, not easy to operate..."

"NIKO pulled out and killed dupreeh first, turned around and took hunter down with another shot!" Ma Xixi's voice also increased along with the cheers of the audience at the scene.

"NIKO instantly killed two, it's 1v1 now!!"

【WTF!!】

【This Desert Eagle!!】

【Only Ni and Kid are left】

【This positioning is exaggerated】

The netizens were also stunned by NIKO instantly killing two people.

And inside the COL battle room, even as teammates, their emotions weren't that calm.

Someone snuck out from the back, and Elige couldn't trade that shot. This was already the worst situation.

They had already subconsciously thought that this round was doomed.

Losing this round actually didn't matter; it was an economy round anyway. It was just a pity for Xu Beifang's brilliant breakthrough.

Then, in the blink of an eye, they saw NIKO kill both the front and back people with two Desert Eagle shots.

"Ah!!"

A group of people shouted directly, and Danking's eyes were almost popping out. He couldn't believe the scene in front of him.

This kind of scene where he relied on a Desert Eagle to pull off a crazy reversal only appeared when he was "frying fish" (smurfing) in the ladder.

But this is the scene of a top-tier first-tier tournament!

Could it be!

Xu Beifang's mood was also a bit excited, but he still forcefully suppressed the fluctuation in his heart and calmly reminded: "There's one left at the bomb site. He was hit by my AK once before. You can kill him with two shots to the body with the Desert Eagle."

"There's an AK where hunter died that you can pick up."

Now it's a 1v1 clutch. Except for not having too much time, they were instead the side with the advantage.

NIKO nodded, indicating he understood.

But he didn't go to pick up that AK47.

Because he was already "on fire"!

His feel for the game had been activated, and he wanted to kill the last person on the opponent's side with one more bullet, and then enjoy the cheers at the scene.

He held his gun quietly, but the opponent didn't take the initiative to peek and give him this opportunity.

NIKO carried the Desert Eagle and pushed forward slowly.

Then he came to the near point and started gesturing against the wall.

Xu Beifang saw this scene, all his nervous emotions disappeared, and he laughed heartily, then leaned back on the gaming chair.

The director was quite attentive to these star players. In such a nervous moment of the clutch, Xu Beifang suddenly laughed so happily, which made him a bit strange, so he directly put this shot out.

"The Ni and Kid bullfighting clutch, this round can be said to be quite critical, because reaching this point, it's no longer just an economic problem!"

"NIKO is still pre-aiming, but the kid is standing under the Jump Platform. This is a wide angle, but it's not a conventional gun position. Will NIKO pre-aim?"

"He pre-aimed and took the kid away with one shot!"

【Ni's Desert Eagle is back again!】

【It seems that after joining COL, NIKO's Desert Eagle feel is back】

【Still have to look at the World No. 1 brother. Beifang is finding opportunities to break through, and NIKO is steadily covering him in the clutch】

【Beifang's laugh just now is it; he has too much confidence in NIKO】

【Can NIKO still play such outstanding highlights on Vertigo now?】

【m0nesy is also, just give NIKO a back and he'll be honest, why fight him head-on】

【Wanjiqi: Hehe, let me tell you a funny story about NIKO】

【...】

The netizens in the stream were discussing heatedly, and MO was also completely unable to calm down: "oh!! NIKO!! This is his Desert Eagle!"

Ma Xixi also said at this time: "I also understand why Beifang would laugh before the clutch was finished, because when NIKO was gesturing against the wall, the pre-aiming feast had already begun!"

"He trusts NIKO's ability too much!"

The cheers at the scene were already everywhere, and the COL player area was also completely unable to calm down.

Danking said with a face full of surprise: "These three shots with the Desert Eagle, I can't even pull them off when I'm smurfing in the ladder!"

The introverted Elige just praised lightly: "These shots are too handsome."

JKS turned his head to look over, his face full of smiles from "lying down to win."

And as the center of attention, NIKO had already raised his double pincers, enjoying his glorious moment.

"The Desert Eagle is handsome!" After he shouted excitedly, he saw Xu Beifang's voice come over.

NIKO bumped his fist with Xu Beifang and also laughed: "The breakthrough is also awesome!"

If Xu Beifang hadn't opened up the situation in this ECO, there would be no room for operation afterward.

But even if Xu Beifang opened up the situation, without NIKO's Desert Eagle clutch, there would be no way to turn the round around.

The two looked at each other and smiled, bumping fists lightly again.

The photographer behind them pressed the shutter lightly, capturing this scene that was quite "esports-flavored."
