After the last spot at the iem-Emperor Station was taken by ll, VC's official blog also made an announcement.
vc e-sports club:
VC's sniper s1mple has a physical problem due to recent hard training and will be absent from the upcoming iem-Teito Station. I hope s1mple can adjust and recover as soon as possible. The sniper position will be temporarily replaced by kennys, a player from the second team.
……..
This news caused a huge sensation in the csgo circle.
Today's vc is no longer that third-rate team.
After the major, their ranking in the world soared to 30th.
And s1mple is also the mvp player in the challenger group of the Fog Major.
He is the terrifying sniper who constantly performs shocking moves in majors. He is the absolute core of vc.
In the IEM qualifiers a few days ago, they performed well, and many viewers expected them to achieve good results in this IEM competition.
But I didn't expect that the person who was killing everyone in the game a few days ago would be unable to play today due to physical reasons.
Many people are concerned about this.
There are many fans commenting on vc’s official blog:
"I play CSGO for more than ten hours a day. After I sleep, he is still playing. This time he suffered a serious blow!"
“Sometimes things turn out to be the opposite, so don’t try too hard!”
"S1mple get well soon and get back to the game!"
Even PP next door also spoke: "I hope s1mple can adjust himself well and look forward to meeting s1mple on the court."
……..
"Damn it, this guy is really sick!" Mum, the sniper of the British SSS team in the imperial capital, had a smile on his face.
The iem qualifiers have been completed today, and the group stages of the main tournament have also been announced.
Their first game was against their opponent in the major, VC.
For this game, the pressure on them is actually quite high.
Although that time they finally entered the quarterfinals.
However, they completely lost that game to the snipers.
Mum was executed in front of s1mple's big sniper in various ways, giving him absolutely no room to develop.
He beat others until they were stunned.
This time he came to IEM, which was also the home court of VC, and he felt a little guilty at the beginning.
But after seeing the news, he couldn't help but shout in his heart, "God help me!"
Now their team has added a very powerful rifleman, and the only threat to him, s1mple, cannot participate in this iem due to physical reasons.
"It's time for me to perform!"
The joy in mum’s heart couldn’t stop at all.
What, you said that VC still has substitute players?
It's just a little-known youth training team. What's there to be afraid of? It's impossible for a second-tier team to have two top snipers.
Just kidding?
This night, Mum was already imagining how she would kill everyone in IEM.
….
s1mple was arranged to have a daily rest, but he still took the initiative to come to the training room.
Although he can't participate in this training, he can still help Meng De share the pressure.
After all, Wu Qiang has been let go by Meng De to lead the second team, and Meng De needs to complete many things by himself.
As a professional player, he has different views on some special aspects and can find and fill in the gaps.
Meng De did not refuse. He originally planned to let Wu Qiang continue to be his assistant, but the previous coach of the second team knew quite a lot of skills.
For example: a part-time gourmet, knows which takeaway nearby is delicious, and has excellent massage skills...
But I just don’t have the ability to coach.
This was also a common problem among domestic csgo coaching circles in the past.
Some retired professional players are okay because they have personal experience and know how to make a team better.
But most of the coaches are inexperienced, and many CSGO coaches came from League of Legends next door.
This is a bit nonsense, because the types are completely different, and some coaches even have no ability to read the game.
More like a team leader than a coach.
"Mengjiao, hasn't it been a while since you hired a coach? Hasn't there been any movement?" s1mple touched a cherry tomato and ate it deliciously.
"There are people applying, but there are not many, and their abilities are too poor." Meng De sighed when he said this.
The pressure is huge. He must quickly find a coach to go to the second team and liberate Wu Qiang, otherwise he will not be able to withstand it.
"I remember that Wang Yuning seemed to want to find a job as a coach or analyst." s1mple recalled the previous ladder and seemed to have a casual chat with Wang Yuning.
"Ace's former conductor?" Meng De's eyes lit up.
"It seems so." s1mple doesn't know much about the history of CSGO in China.
"After that, I will communicate with him and try to get him over." Meng De still has a good impression of Wang Yuning, and Wang Yuning was once a major-level player before, so his understanding of the game is definitely good.
Even if his coaching level is not high, he can still be trained.
After the coach's problem was solved, Mengde turned his perspective to the players.
kennys has come to the home team and now they have started training.
Meng De listened to their communication and cooperation from behind. Although Kennys still stuttered a little, he was at least able to communicate, but the communication was a little slower.
Unlike twistzz, who can respond immediately after hearing his teammates' call, most of the time he needs to be stunned.
Just like Sanji who just entered the major.
But now Sanji can speak Chinese very well.
It turns out that the frequency of language learning is very important.
Meng De watched kennys and his teammates run through several maps. Kennys didn't fall behind on the basic VC tactics, which surprised him.
After all, I heard from Wu Qiang that when Kennys was in the second team, he was with Wang Xishun, live broadcasting the whole thing every day, and his training attitude was a bit loose.
But at least the training seems to be going well now.
Seeing that the team members had almost completed a lap of the map, Meng De walked over and said: "Kenny didn't miss this tactic. I thought you would be wasted every day in the second team."
"Be happy and be happy, you still have to train well." Kennys revealed his signature silly smile.
"Then I will teach you something new today, and it is also fun." Meng De waved to s1mple, "You come over and learn together. Don't think that you don't have to learn anything after a break."
"If you don't study now, it will be very stressful to study together later."
s1mple heard this and came over honestly.
"Open the town map." Meng De said.
Soon, several people entered the town.
"We are police officers. When faced with someone who always likes to jump into the sewers to gain control of the middle lane, we can use this method to gain an advantage."
Meng De explained the gameplay of this small cooperation while directing kennys to come to the middle.
"You take out the grenade, aim at this tube, then keep your perspective still, walk to the left, and once you see the middle, start taking out the props."
Meng De taught kennys about the aiming point and how to use it.
It is not difficult to operate. Kennys learned it after a few attempts.
At this time, he looked at the watermelon next to him and began to teach him another aiming point.
"Coach, aren't you just blasting the sewer with double thunder?" Xigua complained.
"But when there is smoke, it's hard for you to find a spot to aim at!" Meng De retorted.
If you throw it according to the normal method, not only will it be difficult to find the aiming point, but it will also be easily confused by the opponent, and the error tolerance rate will be too low.
And the cooperation he drew from the system not only had a high error tolerance, but the two grenades exploded in the sewer at the same time.
"You learn it first and then talk about it, and my set of props is very handsome." Meng De said.
Meng De taught Xigua how to throw props in just a few words.
The two tried it several times and became proficient.
So now comes the practical part.
"The round is reset, starting from the beginning." Meng De said.
Then he watched God's Perspective on his computer.
At the beginning, kennys came to the side of the middle lane near the link, and directly pushed a smoke into the middle lane, preparing for the subsequent thunder explosion.
The watermelon came to a1.
The two started counting 3, 2, 1 and started moving together.
On the other hand, the kid who was the subject of the experiment came to the sewer without stopping after the start.
From Meng De's God's perspective, the two people in the middle passed each other left and right, and then the thunder in their hands came out of their hands, and finally flew into the sewer.
There was a muffled sound.
The kid just took off!
"Damn, this set of props is pretty cool!" s1mple looked at it and raised his eyebrows.
"It's fun!" Kennys was already a little excited when he remembered using this trick during the competition.
That’s really cool, isn’t it?
"You guys should get good at this first, and I will teach you some other things later."
The interest of several people was also piqued by Meng De, and they began to be curious about what was going to happen next, and they all speeded up the practice.
