Chapter 510: 64 Pushing Flat All the Way

The collapse of the first long-gun round was too fast, and even in many situations, MOUZ didn't react before it ended.

As the commander of the team, Siuhy immediately made some adjustments to the team:

"To deal with COL, this Inferno expert, conventional defense should not work."

"Let's try the way of heavy defense gambling point. If we bet on the right point, they can't defend it either."

He recalled the picture of the pistol round. If this biased defense is successful, it can also achieve very good results.

Whether it is heavy defense to control Banana Road, or heavy defense at the back point waiting for COL to act and then counter-clear, they are good choices.

The young commander Siuhy thinks his train of thought is very clear.

But he didn't know that in this Inferno map, Xu Beifang had experienced thousands of tempers, and too many opponents had made moves against him on this map.

So his real-time reaction and instinct on this map are terrifyingly strong.

MOUZ's fourth point chose to group up and push out of Banana Road, and then the audience in the live stream saw an episode that made Electronic tear up.

Xu Beifang escaped from the three rounds of utility on Banana Road, only lost half of his health, and got the information of MOUZ's B Site heavy defense, directly speeding up on A Site.

Jimi, who was solo-defending A, tapped a head with an M4, but due to the weapon characteristics, he couldn't produce a kill.

MOUZ was forced to face a 4v5 head-on retake. Siuhy wisely chose to save the gun.

Although the retake difficulty of Inferno's A Site is not high, the disadvantage of numbers plus COL's abundant utility resources, their biggest possibility is to send.

Biased defense, if successful, will greatly reduce their defensive pressure.

But the price of gambling point failure is equally huge, because this is equivalent to putting all the pressure on the guy defending alone. Facing the opponent's possible explosive bomb push, what he can do is only become a possible fulcrum.

Siuhy didn't give up so easily, but changed his train of thought, becoming a gambling point in the second timing, and the early-game default was still doing the same thing.

However, they were still in the basic default stage, when they saw Nice, at a very outrageous timing, abruptly cooperated with a flashbang, forcibly trading two people at the close point of Banana Road.

The subsequent Torzsi although made up the shot, but NIKO also made up Torzsi, and then cooperated with the subsequent teammates to occupy B Site again.

The score reached 3:2, MOUZ felt some pressure, and took the initiative to call a tactical timeout.

In COL's voice chat.

"I'm not popping champagne." Danking explained first, looking at Xu Beifang and asking, "Just feel like this MOUZ is a bit weak..."

"Aren't they all saying that this Siuhy's tactics are very solid and strong?"

NIKO said as a matter of course: "Because our Inferno is very strong."

"But it feels wrong." Danking said. "Logically speaking, their tactical team is actually quite fit on this map."

Inferno is one of the most characteristic maps of CS. The map range is small, there are many corner structures, and the duel distance is biased toward mid-to-close range.

These all limited the performance of the gunner to a certain extent. Danking, as a sniper, knows very well that gunplay is not so easy to perform on this map, and the role of tactics is greater.

"Very simple." Xu Beifang spread his hands. "Because Siuhy's tactics can't be played out, the lower limit of this group of people in MOUZ on this map is a bit low."

Tactics, it still has to be executed to be useful.

They chatted simply about the subsequent playstyle during the time the round ended, knowing that the opponent had the intention of gambling points.

But if you want to get points by gambling points, you have to succeed.

But one round was found by the guy defending alone, and another round of counter-clearing was blown up by Xu Beifang catching timing, which led to both tactics failing.

Siuhy's design didn't have the effect it should have had at all.

"On this Inferno map, besides tactics, the lower limit of everyone's performance will also affect the overall situation." Xu Beifang said. "Because this map is very difficult to walk alone, you always need teammates to cooperate with you, whether it is to cooperate with you to feint in another area, or to use utility to cooperate with you to counter-clear, or even simple things like trade-killing."

"MOUZ's playstyle rhythm is a bit slow overall, and the trade-kill efficiency is not as high as imagined, so they have been eaten points."

After a few rounds of contact, Xu Beifang roughly knew what level MOUZ was on this map.

This commander Siuhy has ideas, but he still needs to continue practicing.

"It depends on whether he can think of any effective means later." Xu Beifang said.

Soon the tactical timeout countdown ended.

COL discussed the subsequent playstyle during the timeout. Elige went straight to Banana Road, and Xu Beifang threw a Mid smoke at home.

He predicted that the opponent might give a FaZe smoke to push forward from Mid, so he also used anti-smoke to restrict it, so that Mid couldn't get too much field of vision, intending to isolate the CT who pushed forward.

It's just that after he threw the smoke and looked, MOUZ still had no movement in Mid.

"The side path didn't push down either." JKS also passed the early-game information.

Xu Beifang took a breath, and he didn't know what MOUZ intended to do.

"This round MOUZ directly bought a big sniper to defend, and they also have a 3B utility amount. Is this intending to repeat the process of the previous round?" Ma Xixi analyzed.

"The Mid offensive smoke was given very early, and the utility exchange on Banana Road is also being done. However, Elige didn't rush into Banana Road, but let the CT successfully take Banana Road."

"But in the second timing..." Ma Xixi looked at the mini-map. "MOUZ, in the case of 3B heavy defense, didn't control Banana Road, but left some utility to Xertion, and the rest all turned to A?"

This decision is not bold. Ma Xixi's eyes lit up.

MOUZ started with 3B heavy defense. He originally thought MOUZ intended to control Banana Road and then do solo-B 4A, but he didn't expect MOUZ to leave after giving utility.

Banana Road front point control, no one entered Banana Road.

These information are all unknown.

Siuhy's wave of orders directly started gambling!

Ma Xixi felt the match became interesting: "Now this police is playing quite dynamically, Siuhy started to think of ways, he doesn't want to enter Beifang's rhythm anymore."

"The 4A designed in advance, he felt that COL default would definitely push toward Mid slowly, then let's see if this wave of Mid can grab an opportunity."

After the Banana Road utility dissipated in the second timing, Xu Beifang cooperated with Elige to successfully clear the close point of Banana Road.

After noticing the action here, NIKO and JKS on the side path also started to clear Mid.

This is a very old-fashioned playstyle derived from the peak Astralis.

Synchronous pushing on both sides in Inferno, taking control of Banana Road and Mid, and then choosing one side to explode the bomb according to the information.

A connection smoke is given, and then a few people push synchronously.

"Mid lost information, MOUZ directly intends to fight back on Banana Road, directly sealing the T Spawn smoke, how to say this!"

"NIKO doesn't want to let go either, he rushed directly into Banana Road!"

"However, MOUZ's flashbang is also very white, NIKO covered his eyes instantly and had no combat ability, and he was also blown to half health by a grenade."

Just as Ma Xixi was about to say that NIKO's wave of attempts was a bit reckless, he saw the director's lens suddenly switch to Xu Beifang.

Xu Beifang was spraying continuously at the wooden barrel of Banana Road in the T Spawn, and then two kill messages began to float in the top right corner.

【Nice used AK47 to headshot kill Xertion】

【Nice Danking used AK47 to kill Brollan】

"But what does this Beifang mean, mixed one to death, mixed two to death!!" Ma Xixi's voice became louder. "There is no field of vision at all, pure pressure gun, the two CTs who wanted to push out were all melted!"

【What am I learning this for?】

【I don't understand, Beifang's AK pressure is like a Negev, the two people who wanted to come out were all melted】

【Calculated the time, played too smartly】

【Returning to Banana Road is like returning home】

【This MOUZ was beaten without any temper】

"There is nothing to say, Beifang is too familiar with the structure and offensive and defensive timing points of Banana Road!" Ma Xixi explained.

"Once this utility of the opponent came out, he knew the subsequent actions, and then came to carry out a wave of countermeasures."

"Very simple and unadorned, but the feeling it gives is so impactful."

"On the A2 floor side, Jimi was solo-touched by JKS. Although he traded one head, COL's information is also clear."

Knowing that there is one on each side, COL directly chose to group up and play B.

Although Siuhy tried very hard to intercept the COL members.

But firstly, his utility was all used on the previous Banana Road.

Secondly, he really might not be able to withstand the pressure alone on B Site.

So he chose to listen for movement at the CT Spawn, intending to wait for the opponent's CT Spawn smoke to explode and then try to mix in the smoke to grab an opportunity.

If he could take down two, then Jimi's 1v2 clutch might be able to operate.

However, COL didn't give the CT Spawn smoke.

Instead, they directly dry-peeked to trade kills. He reacted and wanted to force a duel, but COL's focused fire didn't give him a chance to operate at all.

The score reached 2:1.

And these young members of MOUZ finally felt the feeling of facing Nice directly.

... ===== CHAPTER 511 =====

There were only 20 seconds left; COL's attack time was already very urgent.

At this time, Bao Lan might just be able to catch the back of the A1 Terrorist.

If he hit him from behind, and Jimi dragged it out inside the bomb site, COL might just be done for this round.

"Bao Lan pulls over, this is a skewer! Ji Ge is taken down directly! Beifang also... sigh!!" Ma Xixi's voice instantly grew louder, "This Beifang turns his head and one-taps Bao Lan!"

"He can actually counter-kill!"

The director's perspective for this wave was entirely on Bao Lan, so they also saw a rather terrifying scene.

Xu Beifang in the field of vision, upon taking damage, seemed to trigger a defensive counter-attack, directly slapping Bao Lan to death with one shot.

Quite horrifying.

Xu Beifang, having reacted to kill Bao Lan in this wave, was startled himself.

But he also understood that the situation in this wave wasn't very good.

Ji Ge had been taken down by Bao Lan, leaving only him and NIKO, both low on health, to fight.

"Jimi isn't dead yet; he's guarding A2. Let's do a one-for-one trade," Xu Beifang reminded, "I'll pull the gun line for you."

That position at A2 was still too passive, and plus, he himself was low on health, so the hope of winning in the clutch was slim.

NIKO didn't refute, just said "Hmm" and agreed.

Although time was already very tight, Xu Beifang was still orderly performing his pre-aiming, preparing for the duel.

Pit, bomb site one-box, perimeter, bomb site Dead Point!

Xu Beifang prepared for a wide swing to the bomb site Dead Point and swung out directly.

Then he saw a scalp appear near the Dead Point box.

Xu Beifang's first pre-aim point happened to be nearby, and his crosshair adjusted rapidly.

Positioning adjustment is one of the things he is best at, so he completed it easily and fired this shot.

VP's economy exploded instantly, and they were forced to choose to force-buy and fight.

COL also knew that VP must be force-buying, so they chose to lengthen the duel distance and group up at A Site to trade kills.

As for those nooks and crannies, they were completely cleared with utility.

This steady-with-detail playstyle left VP with no temper at all.

【Electronic wouldn't die if his movement was a bit crooked】

【Didn't see anyone, ate full grenade damage in two different positions】

【It's you again, Electronic!】

【I always felt that this match was missing something, now I'm finally comfortable】

【It would be great if Electronic were a physical education student, he could resist grenade damage】

【This unlucky constitution, even a physical education student can't hold it】

And COL, seeing the kill information in the top right corner, was also unusually hard to hold back.

After all, they didn't even see Electronic in this round, but Electronic was suddenly blown to death by a grenade.

It can only be said that the Electronic joke is a classic that never goes out of style in the entire CS circle.

After this round ended, everyone actually felt that VP's level on this map was simply not as outstanding as COL's.

Or rather, COL's form today was much better than VP's.

VP couldn't win head-on gunplay and couldn't get kills, which made their defense exceptionally difficult.

Even if they kept saving guns to retain economy, the significance of saving economy is to turn the game around, but VP couldn't turn the game around.

In the later rounds of the first half, they couldn't get a single point, and the final score was fixed at a rather exaggerated 9:3.

The professional offensive and defensive win rate of Vertigo is actually quite balanced now, so this score means that VP doesn't have many opportunities left.

After the two sides swapped camps, COL came to the defensive side.

In the pistol round of the second half, Xu Beifang took down three with 6 bullets on A Slope, and cooperated with NIKO and Danking in A Small, directly taking all the VP members.

VP's fighting spirit, which had just been rekindled, was extinguished by half in an instant.

VP chose to ECO directly, and the score reached 11:3 as expected.

In the first long-gun round, Danking performed in Mid this time, taking down two and a half with a full-armor M4, and intercepted the bomb.

Subsequently, COL launched a 'Guard C4' operation, winning this point quite thrillingly, allowing the match to successfully enter the match point.

Having entered the match point, and VP's economy was not enough, everyone thought it would end with a flat push.

But unexpectedly, Electronic, in the process of force-buying, relied on a full-armor Galil to kill four, helping VP breathe a sigh of relief.

This breath was quite critical. VP slowly found their form and state in the next few rounds, chasing back 6 points in one wave.

But at the critical moment, Xu Beifang still used a very active forward-push on A Slope to get very critical information for the team, and finally made a gamble on B Site.

VP launched an explosive bomb on B Stairs, but found that there were always people on B Site.

In the clutch, Jame and Fame tried hard to trade, but were all stolen by Xu Beifang, who circled behind.

As the final Fame fell, the match screen froze, and the score stopped at 13:9.

This also means that COL has won the first day of the EPL S19 playoffs and successfully advanced to the semifinal stage!

(End of Chapter) ===== CHAPTER 507 =====

After hearing the thoughts of the two, Ji Ge in Mid immediately added: "I can throw a flashbang to white B Site for you guys in Mid."

JKS also had an idea: "Then Beifang, don't rush to get up, I'll burn a fire at the dead point pillar first."
