Chapter 63 New Ideas for Banana Road Control (6200 words chapter)
"My question." After losing the spear round, the director brushed his hair and said apologetically.
This wave is indeed because they did not do a good job in area B.
Niko's marksmanship error in the early stage resulted in the first kill. Later in the end game, he was too anxious to empty area B, which put the team in trouble twice. There is no doubt about this.
The director felt a little guilty and didn't expect that hc's playing style would change so much.
Wang Yuning, who was sitting in the middle of the team, said: "I also have a problem. I didn't notice that they wanted to change the point just now."
As a conductor, if he doesn't see the problem before his teammates change points, then the problem is to a certain extent his.
"But since hc wants to fight like this, we need to be more delicate in handling the transfer points."
After a slight adjustment, everyone continued to focus on the game. Although they lost the first long gun game, the financial accumulation in the early stage allowed them to still have money to play the long gun game.
It’s just that this long gun round may have fewer props.
"In area B, your defense should still be played according to your own habits. Continue to feel their playing style. For point A, this round, the kid and I will play a one-way smoke in the boiler room to see if we can steal
A first kill."
"No problem." The kid replied.
The early arrangements were over, the countdown was over, and everyone turned their attention back to the competition.
Because there is no big sniper, s1mple's play style is still relatively conservative. At the beginning, he takes the m4 and sets up the position to jump into the sewer. After confirming that there is no one, he throws a fire in the direction of the sewer to briefly regain control of the middle lane.
And send reminders to Niko and others.
An unconventional double rack was built in the boiler room, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being.
The pressure on the Banana Road is unknown to them, so they need to worry more.
"The first wave of attack and defense at the beginning was still concentrated in the banana lane. The director directly gave me a cigarette, and Niko gave me a close ignition. The two controlled it in an orderly manner." Coke briefly explained that VC was in area B.
The control situation of the map.
Taro Yuan followed the conversation and explained HC's playing style: "HC played quite aggressively in this round. At the beginning, the three of them forced smoke bursts and stood firmly in the banana lane. The purpose was very clear."
"After the first incendiary bomb dispersed, hc came to the point close to the stone slab. The stone flasher was already in place. hc was going to launch a wave of counter-clearance at the closer point."
"Sandbag fire and slate flash were launched at the same time, and hc started to attack!!"
Listening to the opponent's flash explosion, Niko, who was hiding in the sandbag, still faced the wall, because he knew that he would definitely be able to wait for help from his teammates later.
A flash of light on Niko's head exploded, and with the sound of flames exploding, Niko's body was pulled horizontally to the right.
Two bandits with white eyes came into view. Niko pulled the trigger and opened fire with the Famas in his hand.
"The anti-Qing war that VC has been waiting for has finally arrived. It's a quick match with good people and kills h4ak directly! After adding a slate fire to the director of the three boxes, Niko began to retreat back to the pack point, gaining the numerical advantage.
There’s no need to worry about it anymore,” said Tao Yuan.
Niko jumped back to the packaging point.
The director happily shook his fly head at him: "Good marksmanship."
Niko smiled and said: "It's so sparkly."
Listening to them complimenting each other, s1mple, who was patiently walking around in Area A, was speechless.
"Are you leaving Huang Po to sell melons?"
Several people laughed immediately, but s1mple soon became more serious. He asked: "Do we need to change our defense? I still have a smoke bomb in my hand."
This is indeed a problem in area B.
As we all know, Purgatory Town does not have very high requirements for marksmanship, but it has more requirements for tacit understanding among team members and props management.
The two people who guarded B at the beginning had handed over a wave of props, and now only one smoke bomb and one flash were left.
If hc really stumbles and fights in the future, there is still a question mark as to whether they can really delay it.
"You'd better not move now." Wang Yuning said to stop s1mple's action, "Now the situation of b going closer is unknown. Our two pairs also need someone to help look at the middle. It's not easy for you to switch defenses."
"Just wait until the time for our smoke bomb passes."
Niko, who was in Area B, also echoed: "Now we can continue to guard Area B, so we don't have to worry about changing positions."
s1mple shrugged it off, he was fine with it.
"Banana Road failed to gain the advantage, hc chose to leave one person behind, and the front team changed to the back team, taking control of the A2 floor first." Coke raised an eyebrow when he saw hc's action.
Both teams today really impressed him. HC's discipline was unexpected, and it could be seen that Tao had put in a lot of effort.
The member who is behind the break basically plays a steady style and will not take the initiative to touch alone under normal circumstances.
Although this will not get much information, for hc, a team that plays as a whole, the overall purpose is more important.
In the past, hc's playing style was a bit rough in many positions, but now their playing style is becoming more and more tacit.
"However, hc's wave of map control may be in trouble, because the kid and Wang Yuning in the boiler room lost time and threw a one-way cigarette, and now they are fighting each other."
"This one-way smoke is very old. It is a smoke bomb used to steal the spiral staircase. Rule slowly came up from the side passage, and Lao Wang opened fire directly!"
[vc.yu used Famas to penetrate the smoke to kill hc.rule]
After being killed, Rule was stunned for a moment before reporting to his teammates: "There are two people in the boiler room."
, after hearing Rule’s announcement, he immediately rushed forward to take a shot.
But in csgo, sometimes opportunities are just there in a moment, and sometimes if you are stunned, the opportunity will slip away from your hands.
jk23 throws a flash bomb at a1 to prevent the opponent from having a second chance to counterattack.
The first kill was delivered at the beginning, and another person was lost in this wave, and the situation was no longer clear.
However, this wave of testing in area b also allowed him to find out the location information of vc.
At the beginning, two people were standing in area b, and now we got the information that someone was double-fighting in area a.
Although s1mple has not appeared yet, jk23 speculates that he is most likely guarding the link.
With a numerical disadvantage, there are generally two ways to play.
One is to separate the team and let the players fight on their own.
This style of play is relatively risky. After all, the opponent has a large number of people and has the advantage of a bunker. It is not easy to get a kill.
But with high risks comes high returns.
If you can rely on your personal ability to gain an advantage through touch alone, then the early disadvantages will be directly offset.
The second method is to gather the remaining team members together, gather all the firepower, and form a team to replenish their guns.
This is the safest style of play for now, and it is also the style of play that jk23 will choose next.
Although they only have 3 members now, if they can find the weak defense area of VC and successfully enter the package point, even if they are at a numerical disadvantage, they may still have some chances by relying on their gun positions.
As for the currently weak defensive area of VC, jk23 decisively led the players to area B.
After a simple communication, they took their positions and prepared to launch a wave of explosive bombs.
After confirming that the position would not move, Area B chose to find some other ways to make up for the lack of props.
After the director communicated with Niko, they came to the three boxes together.
The director was directly put on the three boxes by Niko, while Niko stood under the director on the open side of the three boxes, using a double stand at a vertical angle to deal with the possible attack.
Following the release of the banana props, the director immediately said: "There are props in area b, at least two. You can come closer to us."
s1mple and others immediately started to defend, while Niko, who was under the three boxes, threw smoke to put out the fire.
This cigarette was not sealed in advance just to cope with this moment.
The smoke obscured Niko's vision, and he took the initiative to take a few steps forward.
Accompanied by the instant burst of the package point, Poe charged towards the package point while dodging from his back.
Niko, who was blinded by the flash, hid in the second box, but was discovered by Poe and chased him.
But he didn't notice that there were still people hiding on the three boxes, and was directly shot to death by the director's bullets.
Although Poe did not see the model, he saw the tracer bullets coming from the three boxes, and loudly announced the point: "There is one hiding in the three boxes!!"
When jk23 heard this, he immediately took action and replenished his weapons. During the movement, he took aim at the three boxes. He wanted to be the director in an instant.
But as a gunman, the director knows the importance of information.
After getting the first kill, I moved directly back and jumped down three boxes.
All jk23's advance shots hit the wall.
Immediately afterwards, the director threw a wall flash at the three boxes to continue delaying time.
The flash exploded, and Niko, who was hiding in the second box, took action directly.
The all-white jk23 wanted to hide where the banana path came from, but Niko was unyielding and found an angle to knock jk23 away.
The last bandit came late to chat and started a gunfight with Niko.
Although Niko has improved his hand this round, he still has that damn firearm disadvantage.
With a banging sound, Niko fell next to the fountain.
The director was not in a hurry to take action. There was not much time left, so he would keep all the positions he reserved.
The last bandit still wanted to fight, but VC's defense was already in place, and an instant blast thrown from the corridor slipped under the platform, leaving him nowhere to hide.
s1mple pulled out the police smoke to end the round.
3:1.
vc maintained the early rhythm.
s1mple clicked the tab and joked: "I'm such a badass."
Niko said loudly: "Stop BB, hurry up and pick up an AK for me." He still remembered how he died in this round. If he had an AK47, he would not be killed in the early stage of the battle.
.
Facts have proved that after adjusting their personnel defense structure, the overall effect they can achieve is very good.
Area b will no longer be the team’s breakthrough point.
After losing this spear round and not being able to put down the minefield, hc's already poor economy exploded.
Next, they started to strengthen the eco in half-armor.
They are not thinking about playing the default control map with VC, but are preparing to speed up the link at the start.
But as luck would have it, this wave of speed-up happened to happen when s1mple and Wang Yuning were fighting against the clear in the side lane.
Although s1mple only got two kills and was counter-killed, hc's offensive rhythm was directly awkward. In the subsequent face, control of the banana lane was lost, and zone A was already in place to defend.
When the offense failed to find an opportunity, they chose to save an m4 to protect their economy.
But in the subsequent rounds, hc did not find a chance.
It wasn't until the score reached 7:1 that hc finally called the first timeout of the second half.
Looking at the difference in score, jk23 said in his mind that it was impossible not to worry.
They have already lost the first picture. If they can't win the second picture, they will really leave.
There is actually no big problem with their style of play. In the current situation, it is just a vicious cycle caused by defeat.
As they continued to be unable to beat guns, their feelings became colder and colder. This feeling reached its peak after VC had 4 AKs and a big sniper.
jk23 was silent for a few seconds, organized his words, and said: "Everyone, calm down, we can't continue to fight like this."
Although jk23 has not thought of a good solution now, the main function of this timeout is to calm down the players and stop them from getting carried away.
h4ak complained: "I really have no choice. Several times before I went to area B to control the map, I was pulled horizontally and was instantly killed by Niko. This guy was like a lock, and he didn't even have a chance to shoot."
At this moment, he truly believed what the coach said at the beginning - "Although VC does not have a top 20 player now, it does not mean that they do not have the strength of the top 20."
The verification of this sentence is to prove it to them with facts.
Their heads were almost blown off.
"You can't gain any advantage by changing players in the early exchanges. This is the main problem, and I found that we were a little too hesitant." Rule echoed, "Although our formation structure is very practical, it is also relatively conservative. It is difficult to change points.
It takes too much time and energy to get information.”
This is the price of rule's conservative play style.
Once they have a tailwind and can gain an advantage in the early stage of the offensive end, they can use the whole team to crush the opponent in turning points and advancing.
But once they fail to gain an advantage in the early exchanges, the advantages they can gain by advancing as a team are not so impressive.
Sometimes if it is not handled well, it will lead to them reaching a deadlock.
Poe said with some inappropriate humor: "At least we now know the shortcomings of this formation."
This may be the only good news for them.
…
At the beginning of the 9th round of the first half, hc finally found the answer to the problem.
They made an unconventional fast break directly in zone B.
The default map control in the early stage remained the same as before, but the next time, jk23 asked the players to hide in the b smoke given by the director, and launched a wave of unconventional fast attacks.
This wave of attacks caught the two defenders in area b by surprise. The director replaced one person, and area b was completely breached.
Although vc wanted to return to defense, they lost control of the area b area too quickly. With both the number of people and gun positions at their advantage, they very reluctantly chose to save their guns.
Facts have proved that the first-line team that has calmed down is still very strong.
For professional games, a pause at a critical moment is very necessary.
Just like hc at this moment, if it hadn't been for the adjustment just now, their decision to win this point would not have been so easy.
However, Meng De also knew that it was obviously a bit fanciful to rely on the opponent to win the game.
Fortunately, Wang Yuning is now a qualified commander, and his judgment of the situation has become clearer.
After being forced to break through in area B, Wang Yuning immediately began to make adjustments.
"Next, let's start with three b, and I will give you a mid-section cigarette at the beginning. You can try to control the banana path in two stages."
The two-stage control of the banana lane is a new research result of VC. It takes advantage of the number of people to slowly eat away at the banana lane.
The countdown ended and everyone set off.
At the beginning, 4 people went directly to Area B, and only the kid stayed behind in Area A.
Because the defense in area A was weak in the early stage, the kid threw a deep smoke in the middle at the beginning, making the opponent wary of the middle.
On the other side of the large army, Wang Yuning threw a banana smoke in the middle of the lane at the beginning, and then turned around and ran towards A. His mission in area B had been completed.
The other three people walked directly to Area B. Niko, who was in the first position, threw a slate to fire, and then started to move around the corner of B Channel. The director and s1mple behind him were setting up guns and grabbing dodges respectively to increase their defense speed.
Made it to the extreme.
"No one steps on the fire." Niko said.
This information also means that VC has taken half of the control of Banana Road.
After confirming that the near point was safe, the director began to return to the near point coffin to grab props.
When the smoke was about to dissipate in the middle section, their second set of props was given.
…
HC still starts with the default map control, with barrel fire, then jumps into the groove and sets up a gun in the tree position, waiting for the second wave of attacks.
There is nothing wrong with their style of play, which is also the most common way for the attacker to control the banana lane.
Normal means the wind direction is lower and more stable.
As they expected, after the flames burned for a few seconds and they were sure that no one was pressing forward, they began to push forward and prepare to fight back.
But a smoke bomb fell in front of them, preventing them from having any vision.
It wasn't like they hadn't thought about the smoke, but the sound of flames coming from behind the smoke gave them away.
The two of them just locked arms, waiting for the command's follow-up or Banana Road's anti-Qing attack.
As the smoke bombs dissipated, they finally waited for VC's counter-clearance.
A smoke grenade was thrown at the entrance of Banana Lane. h4ak immediately shouted for help and asked his teammates to flash Banana Lane to suppress it.
Their flashes were thrown over quickly, but VC's props were faster than the flashes.
The director's two Banana Road stones flashed behind the stone slabs, covering most of the area inside the Banana Road. He also added a grenade behind the stone slabs to prevent timing from the other side getting closer.
After eating like that, Niko and S1mple won't be defeated.
s1mple's groove fire and tree position mine.
Niko added another tree mine himself.
This series of props package shows that h4ak in the tree position will directly eat two muffled thunders and rise to the sky on the spot.
In the groove, Rule was so burned that he wanted to run back to the entrance of the banana lane, but as the flash exploded, Niko Hengla saw his last figure and shot him dead with a follow-up shot.
[vc.s1mple uses grenade vc.niko to kill hc.h4ak]
[vc.niko used ak47vc.twistzz flash bomb to kill hc.rule]
This wave of smooth prop control and clearing caused the audience to exclaim.
The commentary in the live broadcast room was not stingy with its pauses.
"The picturesque coordination and the coordination of a series of props covered all the positions of the Banana Road, and the grenade killed one of them directly. In the early stage, I basically got two kills without losing any blood."
"To be honest, it's really scary."
The live broadcast room is also very lively:
[The combination of these props makes me so wet]
[It’s full of details, this series of prop control maps is over, and the duo in Area B even still have some left in their hands, which is outrageous]
[h4ak takes off directly]
[What are vc props?]
【So scary】
In this wave, most viewers only saw the massive damage caused by grenades and the coverage and coordination of flash bombs.
But the professional guys watching the game in the stadium were really surprised by this idea.
Pepper took out his tablet from the side, opened a tactical software, and opened the map of Purgatory Town.
He turned to vovo and said: "This new VC thing is a bit interesting. Although it is still a 3b start, the pressure they face is much less."
In the current mainstream banana lane play style, in order to guard against ct's 3b start, many teams will start with a smoke in the middle of the banana lane on the offensive end, so that ct cannot get information about tree positions and grooves.
But now vc takes the initiative to give cigarettes to the middle section, which in turn prevents the bandits from getting the information.
"Furthermore, the two-stage control can gradually encroach on the bandits' control area. Even if smoke is given to extinguish the fire, the position will be locked. Moreover, there will be a smoke bomb in the follow-up VC, which can continue to cover the bandits' mouths. Bandits and them do this with props
The exchange is completely useless." Vovo analyzed it in the software on the tablet, but could not find any good solution.
Maybe turning around and hitting a might be a good choice for one person?
Not only did he think so in the stadium, but jk23 in the stadium also made the same decision.
Two members were lost at the start, and the prop coverage in area b was too large, which already showed that area b had a large number of people.
Now that we have lost two people, if we don't speed up the attack now, how long will it take?
jk23’s idea is very simple, but how could vc not think of such a thing?
A few seconds after Banana Road was killed, fire was thrown into the middle and the spiral staircase.
This wave of early fire was like a lump in the throat for HC, and it was so painful that it had to fight.
HC gritted his teeth and chose to put out the fire and rush forward. The smoke hit the middle, and as the link flash grenade exploded, several people rushed to a1.
"HC knows that now may be their only chance. If they can't gain any advantage, they may not even be able to get in after VC positions them." Taro Yuan analyzed, "The kid guarding the A2 floor will directly
He walked towards the big pit, but was forced out by a fire. The kid knew he had no way out, so he stood on the big pit fire and forced his way out!"
"One, two! Is there a third one?"
With the kid's heroic death, the atmosphere at the scene was directly ignited. The audience shouted VC's name loudly and everyone got excited.
"Nice kid!!" Several other people in the vc team shouted loudly.
This wave of Little Willow is really top notch. If he is directly knocked out, and one of them is not replaced and the opponent enters the pack point, then the subsequent endgame will still be a bit difficult.
But this time he exchanged 1 for 2, leaving hc with only one member left.
"I'll wait for you and let them get away with it." Wang Yuning played very steadily.
In this 4-on-1 endgame, the opponent has been locked in the package point, and the others are already in place to defend.
As long as you don't rush to give 1 to 1 a chance, your opponent will have no way to escape.
Poe felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to take the initiative and fight a few games in this endgame.
He first returned to the middle to investigate, but found that the linked CT was just moving around, confirming his position without giving him a chance to shoot.
He knew at this moment that there was no chance at all this round.
You can only throw a flash bomb into the study room, then jump to the default bag location of the bag point, and forcibly put down the mine bag.
Later, during the VC encirclement and suppression, Poe, who was in a hurry, didn't even get a kill.
With enough time, VC easily dismantled the mine bag.
