vc won the hot sand city and took the lead in this bo3 with a score of 1-0.
During the halftime break, Binle looked at the settlement screen of the game, feeling a little confused and at a loss.
In the past few months, because I had no experience playing against VC, most of my judgments about VC's strength came from game videos and comments from other professionals.
In the course of the game, VC did not show much, except for a few new playing styles and new techniques, most of which were not surprising, and even from their perspective, the playing was a bit rough.
At the beginning of today's loser's bracket match, they thought they still had a chance, especially since they got Sha Er first.
But facts have proven that studying the game and playing on your own are completely different things.
If pointing fingers is really useful, then the champion of 'Key Immortal' will not come from the void.
In today's game, I felt tremendous pressure right after the game started.
VC's defense is not very solid, but their shooting skills are very fast, especially that guy named s1mple, they really feel the terror.
The first few rounds were all dismantled by him alone.
Fortunately, the opponent's small attack was relatively casual, which also gave them room to operate.
Binle felt that he was in very good condition today, he was very focused, and he also played very proactively.
His performance in Shaer II also confirmed everything. He got nearly 30 kills in this game and helped the team get very impressive kills in many rounds.
But, even so, they still lost the game.
The key point of the situation lies in the 4v1 in area B. After the comeback, the overall state of VC suddenly changed. Although they still had those detailed problems, their marksmanship was completely different.
If Binle and his teammates have poor aim, they are likely to be counter-seconded.
It's completely like playing a game with self-aim, which is really hard to understand.
Before the competition, they had always believed that teams were the future of csgo. After all, star players gathered together to form a team. Not everyone in history had had this idea.
But their results are generally not very good.
But today's game made Binle somewhat shaken in this belief.
If VC can maintain the state it showed in the late game, it might really be able to thrive among this group of strong first-line teams.
Binle is really curious. If a strong-armed male team like VC reaches the top of the world by relying on its own personal ability, will it have a huge impact on the current csgo ecosystem?
Binle quickly rejected this idea. At least from now on, it is still difficult for VC to control this state.
Otherwise, they would not have been able to score so many points in a row in the early stages of the second half.
If VC really wants to be on top of the world, it still has a long way to go.
However, what gives him a headache now is the next game.
As a star player in the racing team, Binle actually has a certain degree of confidence in his own strength.
If Sha Er is in hand, their overall strength can be increased by at least 30%.
Now that I have lost all the Sha Er I chose, I can still beat VC's Purgatory Town in the future. It will be very difficult to win, unless VC becomes crotchless in the future.
But the problem is that expecting your opponent to be in bad shape during a game is nonsense.
…
After a short break, the players from both sides returned to the game.
The second map is Purgatory Town.
On the map chosen by vc, the tanks had the right to choose their camp, and they chose the defensive side without hesitation.
The VC offensive side started the game. They did not drag their feet in the pistol round, but instead came up with a wave of speed-increasing area B that was somewhat unconventional for the profession.
Only one of the two defensive players in area B was replaced, and VC easily scored.
But it is regrettable that s1mple and others played a little less calmly in the follow-up game, and their positions were too scattered.
This gave the three area A area personnel an opportunity to return to defense and defeat them one by one.
In the end, Binle's four kills allowed them to win the pistol round and return to defense.
Although they lost the pistol round, s1mple and others could clearly feel that the opponent's strength had dropped.
The tanks in the scorching sand city and the tanks on this map are completely on two different levels.
There are some problems with their position selection and defensive thinking.
The pistol round was won by the tank, and it was just Binle's performance, which caused a full 387 damage.
After understanding this, VC began to strengthen and carry out targeted suppression and breakthroughs.
Being careless in understanding the map and selecting positions, the tank died alone in the banana lane at the beginning of the second round.
VC is not polite to you in the follow-up, and speeds up the attack so that the remaining defensive players in area B cannot react at all.
The tank started its own defensive endgame again.
This time there was no miracle. Their return defense failed to even enter the encirclement point, and they all died on the outside.
VC successfully made a comeback, and Chariot's economy collapsed.
From the audience's perspective, this was just a wave of decisive decisions by VC, which gave them an advantage.
As long as the tank reacts later, it can still find its rhythm.
But it turns out that the two teams are not at the same level on this map.
VC relied on its economic advantage to start scoring like crazy. In the process, it was only because of a wave of shooting mistakes that they were caught and lost a point.
The score in the first half unknowingly reached 8:2.
On the other side, in the hotel arranged by the competition team.
Everyone in HC watched the VC game and were very familiar with the situation on the field.
The suffocating rhythm, once VC starts scoring consecutively, the pressure is so overwhelming that it makes people breathless.
VC lost to ysg in the previous game. Although it surprised them, they didn't think it was a big deal.
Because they know that with the level of VC, it is impossible to just leave.
The level of tanks is good, but compared with super first-line teams like hc, it is still inferior.
VC and HC have played against each other twice, and both games were fierce battles. Their strength is self-evident.
The outcome was one win and one loss, which also shows that the level of vc has actually reached a level above the first line.
They may have fluctuations in level, but to eliminate them so easily is overthinking.
The resilience of VC is obvious to all on the front line.
…
VC's rhythm was finally interrupted in the last two rounds of the first half, but even so, they still scored 11 points of their own.
The score in the first half was fixed at 11:4.
When niko came to the town of Purgatory, niko felt as if he had come home. In the first half of the game, he scored 24 kills, ranking first among the ten players. The defenders in the banana lane did not dare to show their heads.
.
In the second half of Purgatory Town, the two teams switched offense and defense.
At the beginning of the pistol round, the tank will be based on default in the early stage. After being given the link, light a cigarette and go directly to A1 to break out.
Their idea was good, but they encountered the little devil. The devil ignored their smoke, came closer to the link, and stole two backs.
Before the attack was launched, the number of people had already dropped by two, and it became very difficult for the bandits to increase their speed.
But the props have been given, and delaying it any longer will only make things worse, so we can only push forward forcefully.
The s1mple position in the cemetery was not well hidden, and was discovered by the bandits on the second floor. After being forced out, he was killed.
Wang Yuning fought one against three in Dakeng and killed two of them before being replaced.
The kid is no longer in a hurry and waits for Niko and the director to be in place before returning to defense together.
After placing the bag, Kake hid in the dead center. He had no other place to hide.
He succeeded in killing one of the three when they attacked, but he still failed to win the final game.
After losing the pistol round in the second half, the tank started to make a strong start.
The result was that s1mple drew two in the middle with a bird sniper, putting them at a disadvantage from the early stage.
I also lost the strong start game, and the tank entered a rather uncomfortable rhythm.
The score gap was too big. Even with the spear and the tank counterattacking for several rounds, they still couldn't recover much of the score.
The game in Figure 2 was finally settled at 16:7.
VC also easily won the first bo3 of the loser group with a score of 2-0, avoiding being eliminated and going home.
…
Although he won the game in picture 2, s1mple felt a bit regretful.
In this game, he had fewer kills than Niko, and he almost won the MVP.
To put it jokingly, watching my teammates win the MVP is even more uncomfortable than losing the game.
Of course, this is just a small dark thought in s1mple’s mind.
Of course they were all happy after winning the game.
Otherwise, even if he kills 50 and becomes MVP as the loser, what's the point?
Everyone in VC fist bumped each other after the game, and everyone talked about their highlight moments in the game just now.
Less than a few meters away from them, in the chariot battle room separated by a wall of posters, they had become mentally and physically exhausted today.
Today they received a huge blow. Not only were they defeated in their strongest map, they were not even able to win a single map.
When VC came over to shake hands, many of them were still a little confused.
Their skills are not as good as their own, and the German tough guys have nothing to say. The only reply they can give is to come back for revenge next time.
But binle still has a question, which he has been wondering about for a long time.
"In picture 1, is that Xbox cigarette the trump card you prepared?" Binle asked in English.
The director nodded: "Judging from your expression, the effects we have recently researched are pretty good."
"What a great smoke bomb." Binle relaxed when he saw the director's gentle tone, "You must be twistzz, your performance in area B was great."
The director is always humble: "Your big sniper has also caused us a lot of trouble."
"Haha, look forward to our next meeting." Binle laughed heartily, but also a little disappointed.
Although I was looking forward to playing against each other again, they were eliminated today.
Now that the game is over, their evaluations are inexplicably similar to other people's evaluations.
This is a very creative team with strong personal abilities and radical playing style. Once they are suppressed by them, it will be a big problem...
Although he was eliminated by VC today, Binle somehow developed a good impression of VC's team structure and style.
The second day of blast finals ended quickly.
Today's adjustments and some new attempts in the game gave Mengde some new gains.
In the game in picture 2, he tried to put the director's position in area b and let him play with Niko.
The result is very good, the two people have a good running-in, and the chemical effect produced is eye-catching.
But Meng De also had a new worry, because the playing style of these two guys is more aggressive, so they have a very strong desire to compete for control of the banana lane.
If they can win the banana lane with this style of play, their profits will become very high.
But the first fight failed, and the defense couldn't win this round.
Although there are some details problems, the overall firepower is still fine.
The vc game came to an end, and another game in the loser group started immediately.
The match between Poseidon and Samba next door was in full swing. In this game, the Brazilians beat Poseidon violently on the nuclear crisis. Samba scored a full 11 points on the offensive side. After changing sides, Poseidon was unable to fight.
Already.
Everyone watching the game felt that their condition was not very good, but unexpectedly.
Poseidon made quick adjustments and came to their own map selection, the Mystery of the Dead City. They easily won the second map with a score of 16:5, leaving the suspense of the game in the third map.
Arriving at the Purgatory Town in Figure 3, after the sword fight, Poseidon started as a bandit in the first half, and they started an onslaught with great momentum.
Under their control, it was basically difficult for Samba to fight back, and the final score in the first half was fixed at 12:3.
Facts have proved that North America's defense just has problems.
Although they scored so many points in the first half, they lost the pistol round at the beginning of the second half, and then the Brazilians started chasing points.
The score reached 12:8 before Poseidon finally started to score points again.
After getting the first point and finding some touch, the follow-up Poseidon won't be difficult.
Although there was some fierce battle with Samba, Figure 3 finally won it with a score of 16:10.
Poseidon successfully allowed one to catch up with two, and VC, a pair of incompetent brothers, successfully advanced to the third day of the game.
But the opponent on the third day of the VC match will be their old friend.
That professional Kakashi, the GG team from Europe.
However, the vc who won the game had already returned to the hotel.
Meng De returned to the hotel and heard the news prompt.
Open the phone and take a look:
Wu Qiang: Our team performed well today and has already entered the knockout rounds.
Wu Qiang: kennys played particularly well. His sniper today was just killing people randomly.
Wu Qiang: Xiaoju’s performance is also remarkable. She still lacks competition experience, but she is getting better as she plays more.
Meng De organized his language, then took out his mobile phone and started sending a message:
Meng De: For the second team, just focus on broky and Xiaoju. Kennys can play by himself, and gla1ve will adjust accordingly. If anything happens, just discuss it with 1ve.
After briefly communicating some details, Meng De gathered the players and watched the video of the game that just ended, looking for problems that occurred in today's game.
Although the experience of playing against strong teams is important, if there is no review and you just rely on instinct to improve, the speed of getting stronger will be very slow.
Several people have just won the game and are now very motivated. They are all trying to find their own shortcomings so that they will not do it again if they encounter a similar situation next time.
Afterwards, Meng De took them to watch GG's game route, discussed the BP issues, and arranged several sets of tactics accordingly.
They all attach great importance to the next game, because they have already entered the loser's bracket, and every day's game is a life and death game, so they can't ignore it.
After everything was over, Meng De called ropz to help analyze the information, and the others began to wash up and rest, recuperate and prepare for tomorrow's game.
