"Two to zero!" Coke still expressed his emotions without hesitation, shouting excitedly in the live broadcast room, "VC easily defeated Samba in this BO3 game and won the third victory in the challenger group.
, got the tickets for the championship group!”
"We will see the two teams led by Meng De meet on the offline stage in Copenhagen!"
“What an exciting picture!”
In the stadium, after the game ended, the audience applauded for this wonderful game - not only for VC to successfully win the game, but also for both teams to contribute a wonderful game to themselves.
The word "win" behind the VC team logo on the rear LED horizontal screen was dazzling and soon appeared on the main screen of the game. It told all the viewers that the final winner of this game was VC from the Asian Division.
Immediately afterwards, on the big screen, VC's final makeup photos of the six people appeared, making the audience's emotions reach a peak again.
Taro Yuan was still immersed in the ecstasy of VC's promotion. He held up the microphone and said excitedly: "To be honest, I am very much looking forward to VC's performance in this Major."
"This is the third time they have entered the Major level competition. Their best result was the semi-finals in the last Katowice Major."
At this point, Taro Yuan paused for a moment, seeming to recall some bad memories.
Many Chinese people are also a little confused about the answer to this Katowice Major.
Although everyone knows that even if S1mple got that shot at the Katowice Major, they might not win the championship in the end, but it would still feel a bit pity.
Taro Yuan shook his head, adjusted his emotions and came back: "The last time two teams from China entered the top eight of the championship group at the same time, it was already more than ten years ago in ancient times, and it can even be involved in the 1.6 period."
"So I have to say that VC and VC.A have brought us great expectations. Their current strength is very different from before. Entering the knockout rounds, they really have the strength to compete for the championship trophy."
The live broadcast footage quickly showed S1mple, who had a strong presence in this game.
After winning, S1mple had a winner's smile on his face, a little proud and bright.
Before he could give any victory speech, NIKO on the side fist bumped with him, grinned and said: "Enter the quarterfinals!!"
For NIKO, this is his best record in the Major, so he is naturally very happy.
After the fist bump, S1mple and S1mple even pulled each other and hugged each other.
"For us, the top eight is just the starting point." S1mple imitated Meng De's way of saying it, "You must know that our goal is to win the championship."
The two of them were having a great time arranging and coaching here.
Meng De, who was behind him, heard all this clearly and gently knocked each of them with a piece of tactical paper as a warning.
"Forget it this time, I won't fuck you next time."
In such a joyful atmosphere, Meng De's severity failed within a few seconds.
He quickly joined the team members with a smile on his face and hugged them to celebrate.
Among this group of people, the slightly short director was pulled into the crowd before he could stand up, and his flowing hair was crushed into pieces by multiple pairs of big hands.
"Don't change your hairstyle, it took a long time to do it this morning." The director shouted for help from the crowd.
But why did he feel that it was okay if he didn't say it? The more he talked about it, the more excited the mothers became.
Looking at the happy VC in front of the live broadcast camera, Henry, the English stream commentator, still felt quite bitter in his heart.
Because he has a good relationship with several members of the Brazilian team, he actually hopes that the Brazilian team will perform better.
But the gap in hard power between the two sides lies here. In the desert city in Figure 1, the two sides can still fight back and forth.
Arriving at the second picture, it was completely crushed by one side, which was a disaster.
Johnny noticed his partner's behavior and kicked him implicitly.
As professional commentators, they still need to pay attention to their live broadcast performance to avoid being dictated by netizens later.
"I didn't say that."
Although he is more supportive of samba in his heart, Henry's professional level as a commentator on the Major main stage is still quite good and he will not show it too obviously.
But he still couldn't help but look in the direction of the samba competition room.
Thinking about it now, T979 must be very uncomfortable.
After the game, T979, who was competing as a samba dancer, just watched the settlement screen quietly.
He seemed to want to deeply remember the gap between the two sides.
After watching it for a long time, he opened the console and entered 'quit' to close the client.
He thought he could easily accept the end of this game.
But it still doesn't work... T979's expression is full of bitterness.
The gap between the two sides in Figure 2 is so big that in the middle of the game, they knew the final result of the game.
At that time, everyone in the samba dance was already trying to score as many points as possible, rather than winning.
But in the end, VC's performance on this map even made them feel frustrated.
Now that the game is over, he can even feel that many of his teammates around him are a little lucky, feeling that the game is finally over.
In fact, it is normal to have this kind of thinking. After all, they have no chance of winning, they are just in jail.
As a veteran of the team, Panda is still the one who takes the initiative to comfort his teammates: "Adjust your mentality. Don't think too much if you lose the game."
After hearing this, they quickly adjusted their breathing and soon felt better.
Brazilian emotions come and go quickly.
When the VC came over to shake hands, although they still felt a little uncomfortable, it was no longer obvious.
"This is the first time I have officially played against you. You are really strong." The samba coach took the initiative to praise when shaking Meng De's hand.
Because the two teams have little experience playing each other, they really have no idea of how strong the other team is.
Most of them can only analyze the past game videos and then make judgments by comparing the strength of several other teams horizontally.
This kind of judgment is a good way to judge strength when there is no fight, but it is not necessarily correct.
After all, in addition to the confrontation of strength between some teams, there is also the restraint of tactical systems and the collision of playing styles between players.
These are difficult to see before the two sides officially fight.
In this match, Samba was crushed by VC with its strength in both picture 1 and picture 2.
Now the samba coach is not convinced.
"You guys actually played well, but the tactics are still a bit lacking." Meng De also said sincerely.
However, he is not so selfless, because these problems are superficial problems, problems that he can see at a glance.
He did not study some of the things that samba really needed to improve. Even if he had studied them, he would not have been able to explain them in detail.
Panda, who had a beard on his face, looked at the VC lineup with some emotion.
He had never interacted with any of the VC people, and they all greeted them very politely.
Instead, when he arrived at Wang Yuning's place, he greeted Lao Wang very happily.
"I didn't expect you haven't retired yet." Samba was very powerful in the 1.6 period, and it can be said to be one of the best in the world.
Panda can be said to be the youth training of samba at that time, but it was just a very young youth training.
Later, CS1.6 was eliminated and entering the CSGO era, samba did not keep up with the rhythm.
But he still remembered that Yu was also one of the best players, and he didn't expect that he would not retire after so many years.
Lao Wang's English is not bad. He has reviewed it in the past six months because he often goes abroad. Now daily communication is no longer a problem.
He opened his mouth and replied: "I just made a comeback. I remember I heard about you back then. Brazil just shot Madman, but I didn't expect that he would become the mainstay of the competition area now."
Lao Wang was quite emotional.
Lao Wang chatted with him for a while before following the team back to the battle room and packing up his belongings.
While packing up the peripherals, Meng De not only reminded the team members that they had missed something, but also interacted with the audience again, causing another burst of noise.
After VC won the samba, it was determined that they could advance to the championship group.
In other words, they will not be able to see VC in the remaining few days of group stage matches.
The VC fans and passers-by at the scene gave them great encouragement, and applause came to them like a flood.
After this game, they also truly felt the power of VC.
In the inherent impression of the audience, the AE team as the home team of Denmark is naturally regarded as the strongest team.
However, although the AE team's play style is powerful, it is a bit too ugly. After a game, it is difficult to see how many mistakes they made.
You can only see them gaining an advantage through mobilization and pulling.
In contrast, VC will take the initiative according to the situation on the defensive end, and also knows how to adapt to the offensive end.
Players can often perform amazingly well, and the impression is definitely better than that of AE.
Looking back on today's game carefully, VC did not have any major problems in any aspect. The offense was decisive and the defense was not overly aggressive. It left a very good impression on the audience.
Even though the overall strength of the AE team is stronger and they have won more championships in recent years, this time they even made a sound to defend their title at home.
But in terms of discussion and game enjoyment, a team like VC that prefers firepower should attract more attention.
Among them, the most core VC player, S1mple, the "U disk boy", won the MVP player of this game, and the audience cheered loudly when he left.
As a player who frequently breaks the ceiling of personal ability in CSGO, S1mple is becoming more and more famous.
There are many popular players, and S1mple has gained a lot of "powerful fans" because of his personal ability. They all think that S1mple may be one of the strongest players in history.
But S1mple's historical record is there, and the trophies in his hands are too few, which made many viewers who use "championship" as the benchmark for strength refuted.
Both sides hold their own opinions and often quarrel in forums.
As Meng De expected, on the way to the lounge, a reporter from HLTV came over and asked for an interview.
There are relatively few official post-game interviews in Major games, but Meng De feels that there should be interviews in promotion events like today.
As expected, they are waiting for them here.
In the passage, they met the samba dancers who were in a slightly depressed mood.
The samba crowd was still full, and no one accepted interviews.
The samba coach noticed that the team members were a little depressed and took the initiative to comfort them in a low voice: "It's okay. Today's game is over. We have one last chance tomorrow."
"Every Major is a way to clear dungeons for relatively weak teams like us. We need to constantly adjust and gain experience to become stronger. VC is a very good opponent. I am very impressed with your performance today.
satisfy."
"But we still lost." Fire is relatively young and is still in his prime.
He doesn't accept any setbacks on the road to growth, he just wants to win all the time!
"Just like football, we will fail just because there is a goalkeeper there to stop us." Panda asked, "But if there is no one to keep the goal, is it interesting to score?"
This metaphor is quite strange. Fire thought for a long time and shook his head.
What's the point of scoring a goal if there's no goalkeeper on guard?
Now that I think about it, maybe it was because of the strength of my opponent that I had to keep working hard to win that difficult victory.
After thinking about it, the dissatisfaction in Fire's mind immediately dissipated, and the samba dance turned into the happy samba dance again.
S1mple came to HLTV’s interview poster.
The reporter from HLTV handed over the microphone, said hello and started asking questions: "S1mple, you have advanced to the knockout round, how do you feel now?"
"I feel very good." S1mple truthfully expressed his feelings at this moment, "My teammates are all too bad today, especially the director. In picture 1, he is like a lock brother."
"And the tactics Yu laid out today were also great. I felt very comfortable playing and could freely implement my ideas."
Today the director had many multi-kills to win the key round in Figure 1. It would be no exaggeration to say that he is the key player in Figure 1.
S1mple even thinks that today's MVP interview should be conducted by the director. His explosive kill in the second picture is a bit too much to be honest.
After all, the two sides in Figure 1 were fighting intensely, and in Figure 2, they basically crushed the game without any hindrance.
The reporter nodded, glanced at the card, and continued to ask:
"In the first picture of the desert city, both sides were very anxious. In the second picture of the nuclear crisis, why did you directly perform at a crushing level? What happened?"
S1mple thought for a while and then said: "We were very confident in the Nuclear Crisis map. Samba was not fully prepared for this map. Moreover, in the second map, Yu's state was triggered.
, he is a person who is very good at seizing opportunities on the spot. We are very comfortable playing in the second picture and rarely find ourselves in uncomfortable positions."
"Later on, my teammates gradually became more energetic, and everything developed for the better."
The host took a look at the figure and asked the last question: "Last year at the Katowice Major, you lost to HC. It was a difficult loss to accept. Has it become a sad memory for you?"
After a long time after that failure, S1mple has actually come out of that failure.
He replied calmly: "Actually, it's not like what you said. After all, even if we beat HC at that time, we might not be able to win the Major championship. Our strength is too limited."
"I think we're much better this time than we were that time."
"However, even if we are better than last time, the Major knockout round is a competition between the eight strongest teams in the world, and no one is completely sure."
Speaking of this, S1mple, who has always been confident, unexpectedly became tactful.
The reporter was a little surprised, but felt that this was normal.
After all, this is a Major, the top event of CSGO.
The team that won the championship was said to be the five most powerful players in the world.
If someone can confidently say in front of the camera that he can win the championship, either his strength is far superior to other teams, or he is really arrogant.
"Okay, thank you for accepting the interview, and I wish you good luck in the subsequent competitions!"
