Chapter 490: 44 Post-match Interview

Tens of thousands of viewers at the scene were cheering for COL, and the host also quietly waited for the audience's emotions to be released before looking at the players on the stage.

His gaze first came to Xu Beifang.

He was quite familiar with Xu Beifang; in 2019 and 2020, this guy had won several championships in the country, and they had contacted offline many times, even to the point of having WeChat friends.

He walked towards Xu Beifang with a smile: "Nice, you all performed quite brilliantly tonight. At a certain point in the final, I was thinking, won't COL really win the championship? And then you really did it. Can you share your feelings with us now?"

This was a classic interview question after every esports event, but the viewers never got tired of it.

Xu Beifang thought for a moment: "Actually, when we defeated G2 yesterday, I told NIKO that we were only two maps away from lifting the cup..."

He was forced to stop before he finished speaking, because the cheers at the scene were loud enough.

Netizens in the IEM official live stream were also shocked by his words.

【Ah! Opened champagne yesterday?】

【Don't say, I remember Beifang really made a '2' gesture to NIKO in the camera yesterday, didn't expect it was this】

【Can only say Faze's current state really has a problem, didn't even beat COL】

【Still has to be Beifang, these words are really crazy】

Xu Beifang waited for the cheers to drop a bit before saying: "Today on Inferno, everyone thought we were going to flip over, fortunately my teammates were outstanding enough, and we fought back together."

This host remembered that on Inferno, COL almost lost, and it was they who chased points frantically to save the match. He could imagine that the community had already started discussing this Inferno match.

He also asked: "So what exactly happened at that time? I mean when you were at 3:12, what did you rely on to adjust back?"

The viewers were also very curious about this; after all, it wasn't one or two points.

From 3:12 to 16:13.

This wave of chasing points was quite exaggerated; something should have happened at that time.

Xu Beifang recalled: "At that time, at 3:12, everyone's fighting spirit wasn't strong, just thinking about trying their best, and then I took a 1v3 clutch."

Speaking of this, Xu Beifang smiled: "Being beaten to 3:12, it was quite suffocating at the time, finally took a clutch, I stood up and shouted."

He looked at Danking: "At this time, our team started chatting, Danking said if we turned it around today, he would treat us to steak."

"I thought, even if it's for this steak, I have to turn it around. Making Danking bleed is not easy."

As soon as he said this, the audience burst into laughter.

Everyone liked this kind of relatively absurd reason.

【Faze: So we lost because of a steak?】

【So this Inferno is also known as the Temptation of Steak?】

【But Beifang's war cry was indeed burning】

【No one expected he could still shout like that】

【Later everyone's state was found back, Faze couldn't hold up】

Xu Beifang also smiled and continued: "Returning to the arena, being able to feel the joy of CS professional matches, and finally winning the championship, this is really too good."

"Being able to lift this championship, actually have to thank my teammates, their performance was outstanding, everyone played a big role in their own position, NIKO even actively helped me share a lot of early-stage decision-making, reducing a lot of pressure for me."

"Also have to thank Coach T. C and our boss, without them, I wouldn't have been able to return so easily."

After all, he had rested for quite a while, and the professional arena was no longer sensitive to his name.

If it wasn't for Jason and T. C firmly choosing him, then he would still need to find a position, and then grind and contact with those teammates, needing too much time and energy.

But when he chose to return, the boss agreed in one bite, and Coach Xiaoxi didn't have any intention of refuting.

Without them, Xu Beifang would also be able to return, but the time spent couldn't be this short.

The director also gave a close-up to the two old people in the CS circle, but many viewers felt hard to swallow when they saw Coach Xiaoxi's pure smile.

The host also chose to let Xu Beifang go and turned his attention to NIKO.

"NIKO, congratulations on winning the first major championship this year, how do you feel now?"

NIKO grabbed his head of beautiful hair, and his feelings were all written on his face: "I'm too happy now, I'm even a bit speechless, I don't know what I should say. Joining COL this time was a big decision for me, and now I have also proven with results that my choice was not wrong."

"Today was also an intense final, being crushed, passionate chasing, overtime, countless games!"

"But in the end, we still won, we still lifted the cup!"

The host nodded with satisfaction and was about to take back the microphone, then NIKO continued to take the microphone and added loudly: "Finally, Nice is really too awesome!"

"Without having been in a team with him, you will never know what kind of feeling this is!"

"He is too omnipotent, his experience, his personal ability, his tactical thinking, even as a commander, he is the most outstanding in the world!"

"Now this man is back again!!"

NIKO was praising his captain from the heart; after all, Xu Beifang is really a perverted guy.

In the CS era, it didn't feel so obvious; after all, NIKO's state in the CSGO era was excellent, always feeling like he was just a little bit worse than Xu Beifang.

But now becoming his teammate, the feeling is completely different.

Because he often finds out while playing.

Alas, why is Beifang screen-clearing again?

No, can this clutch be won?

Two left on the opponent's side? Then it's fine, for Beifang, it's just a simple 1v2 clutch.

After joining COL, his cognition of CS changed little by little, all because of the tall man beside him.

After the audience at the scene heard NIKO's answer, they also instantly started to boo.

"Nice! Nice!"

"Nice! Nice!"

The whole arena was shouting Xu Beifang's name, and the audience was having a great time.

Then the host handed the microphone to Danking's side. Danking, who usually had a mouth full of saucy words, was relatively normal in the interview, and took it over in two or three sentences.

The subsequent JKS and Elige were only happy and not used to interviews.

"Ji Ge and JKS are like this, their personalities are relatively introverted, but I was quite surprised that Danking didn't say anything." Ma Xixi gave an evaluation.

The ten players at the scene had already stood still in the center of the stage, starting to award the championship medals and runner-up medals for this IEM Chengdu.

Ma Xixi saw this scene and said directly: "This MVP today should be Beifang's; he was indeed too top-tier in this final!"

"Leading teammates to a strong turnaround on Inferno, and his personal ability was online in Nuke, really top-tier big brother performance, no problems at all."

"Let's look at the stats of the two maps."

"Two maps, COL here is four greens and one red, Faze here is two greens and three reds, Ho!!"

Ma Xixi looked at Xu Beifang's stats: "Whose fish-frying brother came here? Playing like this in the final?"

I saw that in the picture, Xu Beifang's total stats for the two maps were very eye-catching.

ID: Nice

Kills/Assists/Deaths: 69/12/23

Rating: 2.11

"Playing a KD ratio close to 3 on two maps, is this a stat a human can play!" Ma Xixi rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

The CSBOY live stream also stuttered the moment the stats appeared, followed by snowflake-like bullet screens filling the screen.

【A ruthless person who hits three with one life】

【Is his role no longer two people, but three people?】

【Mainly because the KD ratio on Map 2 was too high, I was stunned by the 21 kills and 1 death in the first half】

【Nice-brand mud truck has started!】

【Beifang is a pure six-sided warrior in this final, I, a Faze fan, felt desperate watching it】

【Plus one, as long as Beifang is alive, my heart is hanging】

【Leon Kai next door has already been turned red by Beifang's performance】

【He killed everyone】

【I can already imagine how outrageous Nian Lan will make this radar chart】

Ma Xixi shook his head and smiled: "Actually, Faze didn't play badly, Broky also had a 1.46 rating after the match, and ropz also had a 1.19 rating. In the case of losing two maps in a row, their performance was quite okay."

MO laughed from the side: "But nothing to be done, there is a God of War in the server!"

"However, Karrigan's performance was indeed a bit poor, only getting 17 kills on two maps, just a bit more than Beifang's assists. This firepower gap between commanders is too big."

According to common sense, they don't have high requirements for commanders.

But the contrast today was too strong, which made them have to turn their attention to the gap in firepower between the two commanders.

Perhaps the requirements for the gunplay of commanders in future CS professional confrontations will also get higher and higher.

This is ultimately a game of roll kings.

Then Ma Xixi continued to pull out the stats of this series of tournaments.

"Good guy, the highest rating in this series is still Beifang, his rating for the whole tournament reached 1.67, a cliff-like rating crushing, mainly because the match lost to VP before, Beifang's stats weren't very bright, otherwise the whole tournament stats would be even more exaggerated."

"m0nesy, who ranked second, only had 1.38 in the tournament. Think about how exaggerated Beifang's performance is, and know that this guy is still a commander, really too perverted."

Ma Xixi marveled at Xu Beifang's information processing ability.

After a gunner transforms into a commander, they often encounter the problem of not being able to take care of both command and gunplay, because the information that needs to be processed in the brain is no longer in front of them, but transmitted by the whole team.

But Xu Beifang is like a person who is fine.

Even if he answered in the interview that NIKO helped him share the pressure, this is still amazing.

"HLTV's MVP was indeed given to Beifang, even the medal has been updated." Ma Xixi found that Xu Beifang's personal homepage already had the IEM Chengdu MVP medal.

The netizens in the CSBOY live stream were still immersed in the state of exclamation. They didn't expect that this old guy Xu Beifang could win the championship directly after returning.

Also didn't expect that this old guy could actually kill a group of genius teenagers and play such excellent stats.

And at the scene, after Xu Beifang accepted the medals awarded by the tournament group and the medals awarded by HLTV, the tournament group found him again and awarded him the MVP medal selected by the tournament group.

This led to Xu Beifang hanging a medal around his neck and holding an MVP medal in each of his left and right hands.

Danking on the side was a bit jealous: "Everyone came to play the match, how come you are loading awards in a sack!"

JKS patted his shoulder: "Just get used to it, this is Nice's style, he is a born leader."

"Then is it over now? Can we go back?" Danking asked.

He belongs to the first time winning the championship, no experience.

Xu Beifang took a signature pen from the etiquette lady and pointed at the camera lens: "There is one last session, leave your signature moment belonging to you."

Hearing Xu Beifang's words, Danking also remembered that the IEM tournament had such a session.

He instantly howled: "You should have said it earlier, that way I would have practiced my signature for half an hour in advance."

This camera signature session, Danking had also looked forward to it a little bit before.

After all, it's really handsome!

But the players who can sign on the camera are all those that top teams can have.

Winning the championship today, even if he lifted the cup, he didn't have much real feeling. Once he heard he could sign in front of the camera, he instantly had the taste of winning the championship.

Xu Beifang didn't know Danking had such a rich inner drama.

He walked to the camera, also playing around, shaking his fingers at the camera, and the audience at the scene immediately started to boo.

But he didn't delay time, quickly signing his own ID on the camera.

After signing, he looked at his work with satisfaction and handed the specific signature pen to Danking.

Danking rushed to the camera, and then saw Xu Beifang's ID, his face turned green.

"Where do you want me to sign?" Danking said through gritted teeth, the huge "Nice" on the camera had already filled the whole screen.

"Why did you sign so big!!"

Xu Beifang seemed not to see Danking's expression, explaining indifferently: "Big is good! You can play as you like."

Danking wanted to open a certain red book and directly say "Family members, who understands".

But he just complained, and soon signed his ID in the gap of Xu Beifang's ID, and even specifically drew an O.

Danking was unhappy, others didn't care, and soon found a position to sign their IDs.

Finally, the whole camera display showed the huge Nice like a ship, and Danking, NIKO, JKS, and Elige, these veterans, were all on this ship.

Danking saw the camera signature was over, and prepared to slip to the backstage. He couldn't wait to share the interesting story of him winning the championship with the brothers in the live stream.

At this time, Jason suggested: "Let's go to the middle of the stage and take a photo with our backs to the audience. I want to post a tweet later."

The boss spoke, everyone naturally had no thoughts, and they all wanted to post a dynamic later.

A group of people came to the center of the stage and posed according to the official photographer's suggestion.

Confirming that the COL group was ready, the photographer pressed the shutter and captured the moment of this moment.

Xu Beifang stood on the far left of the team, leaning forward slightly, his hand on NIKO's shoulder.

NIKO was holding the trophy in his hand, laughing happily.

Danking was in the center of the team, he tried his best to hold his teammates beside him, but due to his height, it looked a bit funny.

Further to the right was Elige with a fake smile.

Further to the right was JKS who was turning his head to look at the trophy.

The boss and coach stood behind Danking, and behind them were countless viewers.

This wasn't a very beautiful photo.

But it must be very interesting.

PS: Explain, because the new book is somewhat similar to the direction of the side story, finally chose to temporarily shelve the old guy's story, I went to rethink a genius teenager's story.
