Chapter 7: Gunplay steadily improving!

In the following week, the computer equipment Xu Beifang bought from JD. com also arrived one after another.

With the help of Ma Dong and Xiao Ming, they only spent less than 1 hour assembling the desktop computer and connecting it to the campus network.

With an excited heart and trembling hands, Xu Beifang adjusted his personal parameters and hurriedly opened the client to start a game.

Xu Beifang played a 19/9/14 stat line in this ladder match, but because the strength of the two teams was too disparate, he still lost the match.

This couldn't help but make Xu Beifang sigh again that the essence of CS: GO is a team game, and the role of personal ability is completely limited.

But most importantly, the experience brought by the new computer—from a 16-inch screen to 24 inches, Xu Beifang's focus and ability to collect information were much stronger, and the 120Hz refresh rate screen made him feel that the opponent's movement speed had slowed down a lot.

Most importantly, the average FPS was 300! Throughout the game, there was no lag at all.

This scene couldn't help but make Xu Beifang tear up. The lag of the old computer these past few days often made him furious.

Often when he was walking in the first position to breakthrough, or when the opponent started exploding utility on the defensive end, the screen would suddenly freeze, and then he could watch black-and-white TV.

Now that he had changed to a brand-new device, Xu Beifang couldn't wait to rank up.

But before that, he still had to look at the reward for this task.

【Ding!】

【3-star suggestion: Change computer, can obtain D-grade treasure chest upon completion】

【Detected that the host successfully completed the suggestion...】

【D-grade treasure chest is opening...】

【Congratulations to the host for obtaining Listen-to-Advice Value 465...】

【Congratulations to the host for obtaining "Beginner Adaptability." Description: When facing strange environments and equipment, increase your adaptability by 30%. PS: Go away, water and soil incompatibility!】

A bit "chicken ribs," but it might play a role in the future.

Because most CS: GO matches are cup-based, professional players have to fly around the world frequently. The problem of water and soil incompatibility is still quite frequent in the professional player circle. With this skill, he won't have to worry about water and soil incompatibility in the future.

But the premise is that he can truly become a professional player.

This week, apart from necessary college courses, Xu Beifang put all his spare time into CS: GO. Apart from eating and picking up express deliveries, he didn't leave the dorm.

Throughout this week, Xu Beifang turned down all invitations from his roommates to go out. Whether it was going out for milk tea, group dinners, the Werewolf games they played every night, or even a cycling trip some girls invited him on, he remained unmoved.

He knew what his goal was. Every day he could feel his progress and get corresponding positive feedback, which gave him the motivation to continue moving forward. This had become a positive cycle. Practicing aim to get Listen-to-Advice Value, Listen-to-Advice Value to improve attributes, and improved attributes allowing him to rank up better in ladder matches to get Listen-to-Advice Value.

Xu Beifang, who entered a state of self-forgetfulness, played more than 20 ladder matches every day when there were no courses. This week, he played more than his entire last season, and his score was constantly rising.

Win this match, and he can officially enter A-tier!

Xu Beifang threw his divergent thinking away and put his attention back into the match.

In fact, as the rank slowly approached A, Xu Beifang started to play more and more arduously. The gunplay that was very solid in C-tier became very common at this rank. Although Xu Beifang's gunplay was solid, it didn't lead this rank by too much, and there were more "old oilers" at this rank. The small coordination between teams, one-way smokes, and small tricks made Xu Beifang have a headache.

Compared to players who mixed in this rank, he rushed up in one go, and his experience was still too little.

However, this week, under his diligence, Xu Beifang's attribute panel at this moment also changed:

【Host: Xu Beifang】

【Age: 21】

【Affiliated Team: None】

【Role: None】

【Status: Good (Performance in matches increased by 20%)】

【Mindset: 87】

【Gunplay: 40-42】

【Consciousness: 31-36】

【Reaction: 50-56】

【Listen-to-Advice Value: 987】

【...】

The lower limit of gunplay changed from the initial 33 to 40 now. The improvement in consciousness and reaction was relatively small, only 3 points, but Xu Beifang knew that for the current stage, gunplay had a greater impact on the battle situation.

Although his experience was insufficient at this stage and ranking up was a bit difficult, good gunplay still gave him a place at this rank.

The map was Dust II. At this time, the score had reached 11:9. They fought hard in the first half and finally gained an advantage in the early second half.

This long-gun round was the key to the whole match. Xu Beifang took his AK-47 and headed straight for A-Long: "Brothers, give me a fire extinguisher, I'm jumping straight to the blue box."

Teammate Blue immediately responded: "I'll extinguish the fire for you, you just rush."

The good score made their communication very smooth.

Xu Beifang switched to his knife and headed straight for A-Long, not pulling out his gun the whole time, covering his eyes and jumping to the blue box.

Under the cover of the teammate's flashbang, he successfully entered the blue box, adjusted his state slightly after recovering his vision, and peeked out to the right.

The CT who came to grab A-Long also played very hard in this round. He saw someone jumping to the blue box, and after recovering his vision, he didn't go back, but boldly held the blue box area, preparing to hit one and run.

Came out!

Looking at the terrorist peeking out from the blue box, he gathered his spirits, aimed, fired, and sprayed.

"Da-da!"

【Our game is flourishing! Used AK-47 to headshot kill "Net love failed, forced to be a 0"】

"Trade! Trade!!"

"Da-da!"

【Our game is flourishing! Used AK-47 to headshot kill "Meeting successful, tearfully being a 1"】

"I traded, one-tapped him." Looking at his friend's helpless expression, "Little 0" didn't say much. They were really convinced in this game. The gunplay of this "Flourishing" was too accurate. Although from the overall stats, this "Flourishing" wasn't very strong, but you have to know that he took too many opening kills, always finding them to fight at the front point, and the problem was they really couldn't beat him!

"Little 1" sighed: "Don't know if this guy is tech or enlightenment. He rushed up from C-tier in just one week, ranking up crazily, and the stats are basically above 1.2, a bit exaggerated."

"This anti-cheat is really just a sticker..." "Little 0" couldn't help but complain.

The match continued. After getting two kills, the attacking side still didn't rush to A-site in one wave.

Their teammate Yellow commanded to hold A-Long, and he took two people to control A-Short. During the advance, he caught a CT rotating back from Xbox and killed him, then started to speed up.

The remaining remnants of the CT side couldn't stop this kind of attack at all!

Having lost the key long-gun round in the second half, the CT's economy was a bit collapsed. Next, they didn't turn anything over, and the attacking side ended the match with a score of 16:10.

"Finally hit A-, not easy!"

Looking at the settlement screen on the screen, Xu Beifang turned to Ma Dong, who was lifting weights in the dorm, and shouted: "Brother Ma, bring me to rank up later!"

Putting down the 15kg dumbbell in his hand, Ma Dong smiled and replied: "Sure, wait a bit, I'll take Xiao Ming's account to bring you."

His account was almost S-tier. Although he didn't like smurfing, he couldn't refuse his roommate's invitation. He would just play casually.

"Can't use his account! Xiao Ming and I have a rank difference!" Xu Beifang replied with a smile.

"What's your score?"

"2213, just hit A-."

Ma Dong walked quickly behind Xu Beifang, looking at the settlement screen still on the screen, and said in surprise: "Damn, brother, you've had an enlightenment!"

"I said I wanted to go pro."

"I used to think that talent exists, but the difference shouldn't be too big. Now seeing your result, I finally felt the gap in talent." Ma Dong teased, "One week ago, you and Xiao Ming were both C-tier. One week later, you and Xiao Ming already have a gap of 600 points. You are outrageous!"

Xu Beifang said modestly: "I just worked a little harder. If Xiao Ming is willing to work hard, he can also rank up."

"Isn't hard work also one of the talents?" Ma Dong saw things very clearly. "Even if you have talent, if you don't work hard, you can't cash it in. Is kennyS's talent not strong? His performance in the professional field has also declined seriously in recent years, isn't it because his training is not serious?"

Compared to the state that amazed the world when he first debuted, kennyS's performance on the professional stage has been declining year by year. Combined with the sharing of professional players, it is easy to infer the reason.

Ma Dong was moved by this result and also felt a bit slack.

Xu Beifang was once a newbie brought on the road by himself, but he was about to catch up with himself unknowingly.

He patted Xu Beifang on the shoulder: "Alright, you practice first. I'll finish two more sets here, take a shower, and come with you."

Xu Beifang nodded and turned to start hitting the remaining thousands of bots today.

Constant control of counter-strafing and firing, accompanied by the 10,000th bot hit today, the crisp sound in his ear rang out:

【Ding!】

【Suggestion task: 10,000 bots a day, for a week (7/7), completed, difficulty 4 stars, reward C-grade treasure chest】

【Treasure chest is opening...】
