Chapter 171 Awakening of S1mple, Birth of a New Skill
After returning to the hotel, Meng De asked: "What does everyone want to eat?"
Because of the competition, most of the players did not have dinner. Even if they were hungry, they only drank a cup of coffee or ate some bananas.
Professional players rarely eat enough before a game because research shows that being full makes them feel sleepy and less focused.
Distraction of attention is very fatal to professional competitions.
So even if they are hungry, they don't want to make mistakes because they are full.
"kfc!" This is broky.
"I'd like a Coke, anything else."
"I want to eat fried chicken."
Listening to the voices of most of the team members, Meng De replied: "Then let's go to KFC today."
As he spoke, he ordered a few Family Mart buckets from the takeout platform, then turned on the projector to watch another group's game.
After the vc game, the next game was between the Danes and the Germans.
There was not much suspense in this game, and no one present thought that the Danes would have any problems.
Several people watched a few rounds, and despite their psychological expectations, they were still a little impressed by the strength of the Danes.
Not only did their tactics play very well, but the coordination among the players was also top-notch.
The hook play that VC is good at has been used to the extreme.
"There's no suspense, I might as well just swipe my phone." Broky complained.
The outcome of this game is somewhat important to them, but not that important.
Because the outcome of Group A's game will not affect VC for the time being.
Their opponent must be a member of Group D.
Seeing this situation, the team members also dispersed and began to take a shower and check their mobile phones.
Three full games and nearly four hours of high-intensity combat had already made them feel exhausted.
s1mple just waited for the late night snack to arrive and then went to sleep.
Broky was on the front line of Internet surfing, and soon entered the forum and started talking about it.
He is no longer the person who just watched, he can even start his own group.
But today's game has nothing to do with him. He turned to s1mple and said: "Look at the forum, everyone must be bragging about you today."
The one-sided game was relatively boring. s1mple only saw the details of ae, but the Germans were unable to fight back, and the game was still less enjoyable to watch.
He was about to do something when he heard Broky yelling.
After hearing this, I turned on my phone and went to the forum to play around.
Sure enough, broky's prediction was correct. As soon as s1mple refreshed the page, he saw all the posts discussing the game that just ended.
[What echelon of player is VC’s sniper s1mple? 】
[I can only say that I am convinced. This game was full of energy throughout the game, which knocked me out of sleep. Although he did not show that kind of terrifying strength in the game in picture 1, but in pictures 2 and 2
There is no doubt about the dominance of the third middle school, and the average data of 1.49 calculated in the final three pictures shocked him even more.】
[I think he is really a first-tier sniper. Look at this major, s1mple is really the best among the best]
[I can only say that muwo is not as good as s1mple. I mean in all aspects. s1mple’s performance tonight was really outrageous. He jumped from the B2 floor and took two shots, which made me scream. 】
[Winning today has exceeded my expectations. I hope to continue to work hard and continue to move up, at least to restore the glory of ace. 】
[The above requirements are too high, but I hope they can continue to win, but don’t have too high expectations, not every game can be in such a good state]
【That's true.】
The audience was discussing the game very enthusiastically, and even though it was already early in the morning in China, their excitement could not be dampened.
s1mple's performance today made the Chinese audience so excited that they almost awarded s1mple an MVP medal on the spot.
However, as a first-line star player, muwo's failure this time also caused many people to sigh.
You know, in this year's predictions, he could have entered the top 5.
But because of Shaying's consecutive empty shots, he lost his ticket to the semi-finals.
After they browsed for a while, the takeaway ordered by Meng De also arrived.
The three games had already made everyone hungry, and now they were even more in a state of turmoil. All the KFC on the dining table was quickly wiped out.
The players' tasks were over, and they all started to rest after lying on the sofa for a while.
Mengde originally planned to review today's game by himself first, and then look at the battle situation between the Germans and Danes.
However, I found that the strength of the Danes was a bit too terrifying. In today's two maps, the Germans basically had no way to fight back and were crushed across the board.
In the final two maps, I only got a mere nine points.
After the game, the Germans were buzzing.
This game let them know that even in the quarterfinals of a major, there is still a gap.
The gap in strength between the Danes and the Germans is quite surprising.
Meng De also gave up his dream of winning the championship in an upset all the way.
The impact that AE brought to people in this game was a bit too huge.
In their game, they played almost every round, worked hard, and finally won by two scores. It was almost four hours of suffering.
These Danes seemed to be on a ladder, crushing them all the way.
The Germans could not find a place to fight back, and the final game time was less than two hours.
Meng De couldn't help but complain: "Are you in a hurry to get off work?"
The end of the Group A match also announced the official end of today's match.
Two teams have successfully advanced to the quarterfinals.
Mengde used the computer to record some small details of the game just now, although their next game will not be ae.
But some things can still be used.
After everything was over, he finally remembered the system prompts during the game. At that time, he paid attention to the game and ignored it.
Now I finally have time, so I turned on the system and checked the system's status.
[Character Mission: Deadly National Tragedy, Blind Sniper Angel]
[Task description: On the Mystery Map of the Dead City, use blind sniper to save the team in the key round and complete a shocking reversal. 】
[Task status: Completed...]
[Task reward: The player's mentality lock is lifted, and random attributes begin to increase by 5 points...]
Meng De nodded. s1mple's strength and talent have always been obvious to all, but his mentality is also really prone to explosion.
Often when the team was still in an advantage, he would start arguing with his teammates because of a wave of minor mistakes.
But these 5 attributes are some too few.
Meng De finished complaining and planned to shut down the system, but found that the changes in s1mple were not over.
[The attributes of s1mple have reached the threshold and are beginning to awaken!]
[s1mple data begins to change...]
Meng De raised his eyebrows and continued reading. He had a hunch that it might be the same scene as the kid.
But the previous kid was promoted from A level to S level, and now s1mple is S level, so he can only be promoted to S level in the future!
Meng De had a guess before that among today's professional players, there may be only a few people who are S.
This kind of player, even for the professional circle, is truly the pride of heaven.
Although he has the ability to detect players, it is basically difficult for him to detect players with strong abilities.
So far, he has only seen a few S players in the first line.
He didn't find even one S player, and for a while, he even had doubts about his own judgment.
Now, he doesn't have to think about it, because a genuine S player is right in front of him.
[The player s1mple data panel has been updated, please check it yourself as a manager...]
[It takes a while for players to awaken, and they need to fight to adapt...]

Skill description: When s1mple uses a blind sniper to kill, it has a high probability of improving one's own mentality by 3 points, a high probability of lowering the opponent's mentality by 5 points, a very small probability of robbing the opponent's skills, and a small probability of making the person killed suffer from sylvania.
'.
Meng De:???
What the heck is schizophrenia?
He continued to look down and soon discovered that this was a newly released passive skill of s1mple.
Passive skill: Sensoriphobia
When s1mple kills an enemy with high difficulty, there is a very small probability that the enemy's attributes will drop by 5 points when facing s1mple.
"F*ck!" Meng De, who was usually steady, cursed.
He was dumbfounded, the effect of this skill was too outrageous.
And he discovered that there was already a contestant in the follow-up to Sensophobia.
That person's ID is very familiar to them. He is their opponent tonight, the deputy sniper Loxi from the GG team.
In short, the next time loxi faces s1mple, he will face a debuff that reduces all attributes by 5 points at the beginning.
Although the conditions for triggering this skill are very difficult, the effect is really terrifying.
All attributes dropped by 5 points, what is the concept?
An S-level player may only be able to perform at an A-level or even lower level in this game.
He continued to check back and found that because of s1mple's performance tonight, he created a world-class scene and awarded him very considerable points.
Now, after this competition, if you can draw good players, you don’t have to worry about not having points to use.
After watching the whole process, he turned around and glanced at s1mple's data. He discovered that VC might really have a phenomenal player.
Not only are his attributes far beyond ordinary people, but this skill is also terrifying and terrifying.
Friends in the professional world, you may not know this.
Next, you are going to see a real monster!
…
There was no talk the whole night, and the next day everyone in VC finally got the right to rest.
But it was only the morning, and in the afternoon they began to review their tactics and maintain their own feel.
The game soon came to night, and the bo3 game between the other two teams in the quarterfinals started tonight.
First of all, the first game is between Denmark's second-in-command and the ysg team that has won VC before, against Samba from Brazil.
Speaking of which, Samba and VC have a history, because after the Fog Major, Samba tried to poach the core figures of VC and wanted to make Mendela the core of the team.
But Meng De refused, and the matter was dropped.
They failed to dig up Mengde, so they had to find another talented player in Brazil.
When talking about the country of Brazil, the first thing that comes to mind may be football.
But their capabilities in the e-sports field are also not weak.
The Brazilians hired a guy named gintan.
This guy is somewhat similar to the style Mengde showed during the Fog Major, but it's not the same.
If Meng De’s playing style in the Fog Major was free, then the player named Gintan was crazy.
This kind of gunman will only release the W key once per round, which is the time he dies.
The first game was against Lost City. Gintan defeated ysg by himself.
They didn't expect such an idiotic move, and the Danish ogre cursed several times in his voice.
Although ysg made subsequent adjustments and was able to defend against Gintan's charge, the score in the first half was too small and there was not much room for error in the follow-up.
That’s how I lost Figure 1.
But then we get to Figure 2, the nuclear crisis.
The Danish Ogre used his powerful command ability to integrate the entire team into a whole, and he used quick attack and map control in a new way.
The Brazilians lost the nuclear crisis without any resistance.
It seems that some feeling was found in the second picture. The ogre came to the third picture and directly got 10 kills in the first three rounds. On the map of Sand City, it gained a very considerable advantage.
Subsequently, the Brazilian repeatedly broke through ysg's defense in A and successfully recovered the score.
But in the later stages of the game, the breakthrough player in the ysg team stood up again and helped the team get the rhythm.
In the third picture, ysg won with a final score of 16:10.
Announced that they successfully entered the semi-finals.
After a brief rest of ten minutes, the game came to the highlight of the evening.
aka played against Finnish HC, but most Chinese people like to call them Cold Wave.
The king from the Commonwealth of Independent States faced off against a top-tier dark horse that has been reorganized in the past six months.
Confrontation between marksmanship and system.
HC, like AE, also exists as a system team. There is no particularly outstanding star player in their team, but the level of the players is not too inferior.
Many people call them the civilian version of ae.
However, in Meng De's eyes, these two teams are completely different.
The ae team relies on the tacit cooperation of the players and the mutual cooperation. Although there are tactics, they are just old tricks with new wine.
As for the hc team, they rely on their strict discipline and novel tactics to fight.
At this stage, no team can beat them in terms of discipline, not even ae.
This is also an important factor in why they can become dark horses.
Both are dark horses, but there are actually many comparisons between vc and hc.
But the roots of the two teams are different.
vc is a new player, slowly find the system and adapt to the first-line competition.
And hc is a veteran player. They have been reorganized and adjusted, their individuality has been forcibly worn away, and they have been integrated into a system.
This game has received a lot of attention. Everyone wants to see how far these old guys like HC can go and how much pressure they can bring to aka.
But after the game, they discovered that aka was not in the best condition at all.
Although the two maps achieved good scores, it can be clearly seen that they are far behind their previous levels.
In the end, both maps were lost to hc by small margins.
People can't help but sigh that with all the heroes coming together, if the old and strong teams fail to keep up with the pace of the times, they will be eliminated.
This maj is like this, and so are they aka.
If you don't keep up with the changes of the times, even if you have the foundation, you won't be able to do it.
And they have firmly established the idea of team CS in their hearts.
In today's game, both ae and hc were shown the team system.
Although it may not be very ornamental, the effect produced is really good.
They have a feeling that CSGO in this era may be developing rapidly in the direction of a team.
And VC’s opponent tomorrow will be HC from Finland!
The audience is also very curious about the collision between the two dark horses.
Is it the newcomer's personal abilities that are more powerful, or is it the experience of the elders that is more useful?
