The first day of competition in the Legend Group is over.
The two VC teams have one win and one loss.
This is in line with the predictions of most Chinese people.
Judging from the competition in the challenger group stage.
A team has rich experience and has more ways to deal with the enemy.
When encountering difficult problems, they can usually be solved using personal abilities.
It was the first time for several members of the second team to participate in a large-scale event, and their competition experience was still insufficient.
There is actually a lot of room for improvement in the strength of several members of the second team, but they are in the middle of the schedule and everything requires immediate combat effectiveness.
Several major domestic csgo anchors have analyzed it.
According to the current lineup, the upper limit of the second team is higher than that of the first team.
After all, Xigua and Sanji in the first team can no longer keep up with the team.
It's not that they didn't play well.
But if they reach the first-line level, their strength is a bit weak.
And the members of the second team.
The talents of gla1ve, kennys, and broky are all visible to the naked eye.
So as long as nothing unexpected happens, the three of them will continue to hone their skills until they adapt to the rhythm of the first-line competition, and then they can take off.
However, it seems that the second team will not be able to fly in this major.
They played very well in yesterday's game, but they still lost the game, which already illustrates some problems.
Most domestic viewers had expected it, but they still had some regrets.
The best result of the first day of competition was that both teams won.
They know that this is also unrealistic.
It is already very good to bring them a victory on the first day.
Thinking back to this day last year.
There isn't even a Chinese team on the major stage.
Thinking this way, the audience felt much better.
Moreover, in yesterday's game, the five-ring smoke that VC played was out of the circle again.
Someone edited together all the famous scenes of VC's props and posted them on the Internet with the title "VC's Props".
It received hundreds of thousands of views overnight, and it is still becoming popular at an even faster rate.
For the VC in Katowice, they did not know these things.
The result of yesterday's game did not surprise them.
Although they are good at upsets, they are not a strong team killer like ysg.
When playing against these top first-line teams, the winning rate is very low.
"I'm still very unhappy. We were only a few points away from winning." Broky was drinking Coke next to him, looking unwilling to do so.
"It's okay. Fans in China say that we are still proud of ourselves even though we lost." Lin showed Broky the comment he saw.
gla1ve shook his head: "What's there to say if you lose?"
Meng De was watching the game video nearby. Hearing these words, he frowned and cursed angrily:
"Is there something wrong with your thinking?"
"Although fans of defeated Yourong can say this, you can't."
"For you, this game is a loss. Your strength at this stage is poor. I have always said that if you are even close, you are a lot worse."
"It doesn't matter if you lose the game this time, but you can't think that you have tried your best and played well enough."
"If anyone has this mentality next time, please take the initiative to submit your resignation to me..."
After Meng De scolded them, he went back to watch the videos of yesterday's games.
But everyone in the hotel was a little silent.
The reason why Mengde is angry is because their current thinking is very similar to the thinking of several previous domestic teams.
Thinking that I lost the big score this time, it was just bad luck, bad condition, bad equipment, bad feel, and even bad accessories...
You can find a lot of reasons, but the fact is that they no longer have the courage to strive for first place.
The entire VC team has a very good atmosphere under the leadership of Meng De, and its strength has improved in an orderly manner.
Now that someone is showing signs of complacency, Mengde immediately puts an end to this sign and cannot let this trend spread within the team.
You know, people's values and emotions can also be passed on.
One person's failure can affect the entire team.
Without that spirit, how can we play csgo?
Looking at the angry coach, several people felt a little guilty.
Because they are all teenagers, they actually have this idea more or less in their hearts.
They have just entered the profession less than a year ago and have achieved this result. They are all a bit inflated.
When Meng De said this, several people stopped chatting and started training individually.
Today's game will start in the afternoon, and they are also doing warm-up training.
Avoid mistakes caused by marksmanship problems during the game.
At about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, everyone started driving to the venue.
The first two teams to start the match today were the guys from the second team.
However, their opponents on the second day were not ideal.
Because they met the current third player in the world.
kennys had a fight with aka.
Although kennys once had an upset match with his brothers from the first team.
However, he does not think that the chances of winning today's game are high.
After all, why an upset is an upset is because the opponent is very strong, and the last loss to them was just a mistake.
aka is also unlucky, their recent state has not been very good.
As a slow-growing team, they ran into their old rival ae on the first day of the game.
Although they worked hard, they still lost the game by 3 points in the end and fell into the 0-1 league.
Then the guys at vc.a are out of luck.
On the first day, I played the No. 2 player in the world, and on the second day, I played the No. 3 player in the world.
Although the opponent's ranking is one lower, for them, is it a matter of ranking?
After going through bp, today’s map was finally confirmed to be the Mystery of the Dead City.
vc.a starts as a bandit first.
In fact, both VC teams have been training for this map.
It's just that one team is hiding and not letting go.
This map actually doesn't have that much of an advantage for VC.
Because the map of Mystery of the Dead City is too small, the structure is too simple compared to other maps, and it is very difficult to use marksmanship and preview. The benefits of tactics on this map are not very high, but the one-size-fits-all strategy such as default and explosive bombs is very effective.
Popular.
However, the bp result is like this, and there is nothing we can do about it.
They banned several of the opponent's battle maps, and the opponent banned several of their tactical maps. In the bo1 match, the last thing left was the forklift.
At the beginning of the pistol round, kennys, as the attacker, came to Hall A alone to make the default decision.
kennys felt good today. He relied on his good preview to search for points and directly scored two kills in area a.
A wave of acceleration began.
The opponent's early personnel structure is 212.
Two people were instantly dropped from area A, leaving them no chance to defend.
The pistol round was finally won by vc.
After winning the pistol round, they were not overturned in the early stage and relied on the offensive side's advantage to score 5 points in one go.
But in the second long shot round of the first half, vc.a took control of the middle, and was hit by a big sniper three times in a row, announcing the beginning of the police scoring points.
In the first half after that, vc.a kept working hard to score. 1ve got a quadruple kill at package point B and successfully got one point. All the rest of the points were taken by aka.
In this map that favors bandits, we only scored 6 points in the first half, which is very unsatisfactory.
It also foreshadowed the failure of vc.a on this map.
In the second half, aka switched to the attacking side and even showed their personal advantages.
After winning the pistol round, they were unstoppable and easily pushed the game to the match point.
vc.a couldn't even struggle at this match point, so it was won by aka.
The final score was fixed at 8:16.
This result is the same as the weather in Katowice today, extremely miserable.
…
"It's still a bit too forced to let the current vc.a face aka."
"Although aka lost yesterday's game, it does not mean that they are weak. VC.a is still weak and lost this game."
"But we can look forward to the next VC first team game." Coke changed his voice and began to give information about the next game.
Taro Yuan next to him added: "VC is also under a lot of pressure because their opponent today is from Denmark."
"Although it is not AE, ysg's overall strength is still very strong."
"The sniper SRM among them has brought us countless famous scenes, but as the man behind the powerful killer, this game will definitely be very interesting."
…
"They defeated Poseidon yesterday, right?" srm casually asked his teammates while adjusting the equipment.
The teammate next to him nodded, knowing that the 'they' in SRM's mouth was referring to VC.
"The only way to win by a small score is in the Lost City."
"Above the Lost City?" srm raised his eyebrows.
He is very clear about the statistics of the first team.
Poseidon's winning rate in Lost City in the past year can be ranked in the top 5.
Although the winning rate does not mean that they will definitely win, the data on paper cannot deceive people.
This winning rate shows their overall strength on this map.
But it was won by this rookie VC, which is a bit incredible.
Yes, for these first-line players, VC is still a rookie team.
vc has made too few appearances in international competitions. Everyone has little experience playing against them and can only regard them as a rookie team.
"You're not afraid before the game even starts, are you?" The teammate next to him said suspiciously, playing bot.
The right corner of srm's mouth curled up in a crooked smile.
"How is that possible? They just beat Poseidon. Let's teach them a lesson today."
"Then it depends on your performance."
"I'll show you the explosion~"
…
"1ve's old club, right?" s1mple confirmed the news with Xigua next to him.
As a gossip expert, Xigua quickly confirmed the news to s1mple.
"Yes, gla1ve was kicked out of the second team of ysg."
"Why are you asking so many questions? Warm up quickly." Meng De said from behind while holding the tactical paper.
"Why not, 1ve take revenge." s1mple said with a smile.
As colleagues, most of their ten team members have good relationships.
1ve had this experience and said that one day I would help him take revenge.
Although they were not playing ysg's second team today.
But the revenge of the second vc team will be avenged by the first vc team.
So it makes sense to play against the ysg team!
Just thinking about it, s1mple laughed out loud.
…
The group stage records of ysg and vc are both 1-0. It has not yet reached the promotion or elimination games, so the game is still a bo1.
After the players debugged the equipment and confirmed that there were no problems, today's BP officially started.
After guessing, Meng De won the right to ban the map first.
Meng De first gave away the two maps of Death Amusement Park and Nuclear Crisis.
ysg banned three cards, and they thought about it for a while.
They sent away Purgatory Town, Lost Desert City, and Scorching Sand City respectively.
All the third ones have been banned, leaving only the Mystery of the Dead City and the Train Stop.
"Continue to hide or fight?" Meng De sought the opinions of his team members.
"Keep hiding, I don't think it's necessary to use big moves to fight them," s1mple said.
Although Meng De believed that he did not want to kill Cheng, he could not find any evidence.
However, Train is also a strong map in VC, so it’s pretty good to play on this map.
Because vc selects the map, the right to choose the side lies with ysg.
It might be a bit stressful to start the first half as a bandit.
With the map confirmed, Meng De told the team members a few things and began to enter the server.
The train's pistol round officially begins.
"Let's call 212. In the early stage, we will focus on defaulting to each other and try to find ways to get information from each other."
This was also one of their earliest complete tactics.
When the coach taught them this tactic, it was used in long gun rounds.
But with a slight change, it may not be impossible to use it in a pistol round.
Tactics are dead, people are alive.
Xigua bought a cigarette and then followed his teammates to Lvtong.
s1mple, who got p250, went to control the middle lane alone, while the other two people walked towards the red stairs.
A few people did not plan to take the initiative in the early stage, and mainly focused on establishing points.
As a defensive team, ysg is a systematic team.
But they are not guys like ae who focus on solid and default tactics.
In regular games, they like to do tricks so that other opponents cannot figure out their situation.
For example, in this pistol round, under the arrangement of SRM, they came to a wave of 113.
These three people all concentrated on Lvtong and made a wave of forward pressure on Lvtong.
Their forward pressure just happened to hit the muzzle of VC's gun.
Xigua ducked behind the cover in advance, and the kid looked at Lvtong.
The kid was completely blinded by Lvtong's instant burst, and the watermelon was immediately pulled out.
The opponent pulled the two of them out from behind, and he splashed water continuously, successfully saving the kid who was covering his eyes.
At this time, the third person in Lutong was a little at a loss.
He bought thunder clamps and props this round.
Two flashes were applied, but they did not achieve the desired effect and could only be opened backwards.
Once the two Lvtong people died, several other people in ysg were worried that vc would attack from a double attack and hurried back to defense zone a.
However, Xigua saw that he had gained an advantage in Lvtong and said directly:
"Director, you two find a way to kill the policeman in Area B. Let's move to another location!"
Now that the pressure in area a is full, they will have a numerical advantage when attacking area a, but if the opponent returns to defense quickly, problems will easily arise.
A few people got an advantage, and most of them quickly moved to area B.
This turning point was so stable that the commentators couldn’t help but praise:
"Xigua's command is really good, and it's not wasteful at all."
"Now that the situation changes, they only have to face one police officer."
"Sanji found the policeman in the infield from the high platform, shot twice in succession, and successfully killed him."
"It's hard to go back to defense now. The policemen came back and fired two shots, but they were also maimed and turned around and left."
"Come on, we don't need to play the ysg pistol round now, just open the bail. See you next round."
