In the Copenhagen Arena, the match between VC and GG was paused again.
Unlike before, the pause this time was not called by VC, but by GG.
I saw that the score at the top of the big screen had reached 14:14.
After the VC called the timeout, the situation of the game gradually changed.
After being chased back multiple scores in a row, GG's mentality inevitably changed.
After the timeout, they were held back by one or two points, but they actually didn't care.
Then they discovered that the rhythm of the game was like a wild horse running wild and out of control. Only then did they start to become anxious.
But the more anxious they were, the worse their control of the situation became. As the difference between the two sides continued to narrow, some chaotic thoughts inevitably appeared in the minds of everyone in GG - "Isn't this really going to be overturned?"
As soon as this idea appeared in their minds, they couldn't get rid of it.
It wasn't until the score was tied that GG's coach realized something was wrong and took the initiative to pat Jiya on the shoulder and call a timeout.
In my impression, VC is not a team that is particularly good at defense.
Compared to defense, their individual abilities on offense seem to be more outstanding.
Jiya scratched his hair a little irritably. He didn't know how the game turned out like this.
It was clear that they had been controlling the rhythm in Figure 2 from the beginning. It was clear that they were just one step away from getting the match point and returning the game to the starting point.
What the hell! What the hell is going on!
Why did the opponent's momentum change drastically after just a pause?
No! Not only the momentum, but also the opponent's marksmanship and thinking have become much clearer.
Why can a timeout on the opposite side play such a huge role?
Jiya still can't figure it out.
"...GG's offensive methods are still too simple. They control the map at the beginning, and then wait until 40 seconds before launching explosive bombs. The offensive in the long gun game in the second half seems to be this set of templates. This kind of set tactics is usually
It can produce good results, but they use it too frequently, which allows the defender to seize the opportunity. They only need to manage the props well and wait for the bandits to attack before delaying the attack. GG's attack will not be able to open up the situation."
"In sharp contrast, in these rounds, VC did a very good job in prop management and personnel position control. And even after entering the endgame, they played very calmly. VC's main focus now is
By delaying the game with one hand, they are giving full play to their team's defensive advantages and using their outstanding personal abilities to compete with GG."
"Now that the point difference between the two sides has been declared to be zero, the pressure has been put on GG as the attacker, and the balance of victory and defeat has changed subtly."
"For GG, the most important thing now is to sort out your thoughts and change your thinking to break the game. The match point is approaching and VC cannot give another chance."
The English stream commentator Jonny was amazed in the live broadcast room.
In today's game, he personally doesn't have any favorite team, so he can be objective and neutral.
However, due to the development of the situation, in Figure 2, he is more optimistic about GG winning, but CSGO games are always like this, no one can give an answer until the last moment. An inconspicuous timeout allowed VC to seize the opportunity, and started to fight for GG
Counterattack.
This was an unexpected surprise, and it was also a surprise that VC brought to the spectators.
"The timeout is over, let's get back into the game."
In VC's voice, perhaps because of the improvement of the situation, the voice of everyone's communication sounded more energetic.
"Be careful of irregularities. Be careful this round and don't control the props too hard." During the preparation, Wang Yuning's voice sounded in the voice line.
S1mple took a look at his position and made a suggestion: "Instead of waiting passively, we should take the initiative. My position is good. How about I use my big sniper to press forward."
"Push forward?...Then NIKO and the director will find a way to cooperate with S1mple. I will defend alone at the beginning of area B, and you also need to do a good job of defending against rush in area A." Although pressing forward is a bit dangerous, Wang Yuning still agreed.
The countdown ends at this moment, and S1mple's cutter rushes towards the middle.
The director helped him break the VIP shutters and sent S1mple into the VIP smoothly.
After S1mple entered the VIP, he jumped to the middle with his big sniper.
Almost at the same time as they fell into the sewer, the VIP cigarettes and other cigarettes thrown by the bandits exploded one after another.
The big sniper opens the scope and passes the point in the vertical frame.
After simply waiting for two seconds, the other party had no intention of going any further.
"The general fire can be thrown away, I started to push forward." Unconventional did not receive any kills, and there may be people coming from the side of the sewer. It is already very dangerous for S1mple to sneak past.
Instead of retreating back to the arch, it is better to use the trick and push the sniper to the bandit's mouth to try to get the first kill.
Upon hearing S1mple's request, the director had already aimed the incendiary bomb and directly threw it at the sandbag.
"S1mple was single-pushing in the middle with a big sniper, but GG didn't intend to give up control of the middle. At the second moment, he double-flyed and prepared to send others over."
"The first shot of a great sniper is the key..."
S1mple opened the camera and pushed it all the way to the bandit's mouth. As he gained a little bit of vision, he soon saw one of the bandit's mouth's legs.
But at the same time, an unknown object flew past from the peripheral vision.
Before he could figure out what this unknown object was, he almost subconsciously reacted, flicking his wrist, and the crosshairs were thrown over.
--boom!
GG is performing a double trapeze, and MUWO is preparing to launch behind the sandbag with the help of teammates.
While flying in the air, he gained a lot of vision in the middle, including the CT carrying the big sniper.
"Before S1mple..."
He immediately wanted to pass the message to his teammates, but before he could finish speaking, he was hit by a bullet in the chest.
Empty pick!
There was a huge noise at the scene. Whether they were VC supporters or not, everyone was amazed by S1mple's shot at this moment.
"S1mple's big sniper shot killed the MUWO in the air. Is this the VC's anti-aircraft gun?"
"But his position was too deep, and Xiao Hei rushed forward to make up for it."
"NIKO came out of the arch and wanted to take cover, but was also located by Xiao Hei's AK47 headshot!! Xiao Hei also stepped forward!"
The sudden changes in the situation on the field even made it difficult for the commentators to keep up.
This wave was originally due to S1mple's amazing sniping, and VC gained the advantage.
Because as long as NIKO comes out to cover, S1mple can basically retreat safely.
But no one expected that Xiao Hei's reaction speed would be so fast. NIKO was only half a second slower, allowing Xiao Hei to shoot down the S1mple.
Then he fired a targeted shot and knocked out NIKO as well.
This time, VC's front top actually became a disadvantage.
After a wave of fighting in the middle, VC still had three people left, and GG had four people left.
"Well done, Xiao Hei!" Jiya originally felt that something was wrong, but Xiao Hei's sudden outburst was definitely a surprise.
Immediately afterwards, he began to give the following instructions: "Fox, you move towards A1, and then we will press A through the arch."
Fox nodded and began to walk slowly towards A1 according to the commander's decision.
Because A1 had not cleared it, he searched the points very carefully.
But he had just finished peeking at the vases inside and was about to continue pushing out, when gunshots came from the right side of A1.
[VC.somebody used AK47 to kill GG.fox with a headshot]
"After the firefight in the middle, the kid who was guarding the A package point alone chose to take the initiative to press forward. Now he must get more information to his teammates."
"At the same time, we can see that there are also bandits in A1."
"The kid saw the shadow first!! Killed Fox directly, the decision was correct, and the hand felt hot! The number of people was even again."
The kill information in the upper right corner actually reveals a lot of information to VC.
First of all, this wave of bandits wanted to hit A in the middle. One person in A1 died, and there was no follow-up shot.
This shows that there are many bandits in the middle.
The director thought clearly and quickly went to the arch to add a smoke bomb.
Just two seconds after he refilled his cigarette, a smoke bomb was pushed up from under the arch.
The director did not retreat, but continued walking under the cover of smoke bombs.
There is a vague figure on the small road B. The director raises his gun and shoots!
[VC.Twistzz used M4A4+VC.NIKO to kill GG.black]
After getting the kill, the arch smoke bomb had not dissipated. After simply changing positions, the director began to report the situation: "I'm sure there is one more in the middle, but I don't know about the remaining one."
"What should I say now, should I set up guns and other information on the spot or push forward proactively?" NIKO, who had been killed, asked a fatal question.
The number of people on both sides is 3 versus 2. In this endgame, there is a high probability that the opponent will not be able to save their gun.
So they must be prepared for another wave of attacks.
"I still have a lot of props. I can jump behind and investigate." The kid took the initiative to explain his situation.
After hearing this, Wang Yuning pondered for a few seconds, and then made a decision: "Director, let's defend area B first, and we will leave together later, and we will move forward together to take stock."
He made this decision after careful consideration. Although the opponent was inferior in numbers, S1mple's big sniper might be in their hands.
Once a single person gets ahead, there is a high possibility of being killed instantly.
If two people cooperate with each other, they can at least ensure that someone can replenish the gun.
After the director arrived in Area B, Wang Yuning threw the fire in his hand, and then the two of them started to clear the middle road together.
Their actions put a lot of pressure on the kid.
After all, VIP is air defense, if there is a timing, he may be attacked from behind.
The kid needs one person to take care of both sides.
The time came to 15 seconds, and the kid who glanced at the police came back to look at area A.
He peeked out and saw a bandit downstairs of A2, and immediately raised his gun and shot him.
But this wave was a little anxious, and they didn't make a quick stop, so they were directly counterattacked by the opponent.
The two bandits quickly put down their mine bags.
After putting down the mine bag, the two of them chose the most stable position.
Both of them hid at the A1 entrance, choosing one to sell and the other to hide.
They thought that the remaining two people on the other side would come through the arch, so that the people on the A1 platform would have an information gap.
But they didn't expect that the director would go to the police house and return to the defense.
The director who found it immediately killed the jiya above A1.
Loxi quickly added the gun, but her position was also exposed.
"The endgame is 1 versus 1, whoever wins will get the match point!"
"Loxi bounced off the wall to find a gun position for himself, but Wang Yuning had a clear mind and waited in place after pulling hard."
"Loxi who peeked out again became his dead soul!"
"The veteran's mentality was still very stable at the critical moment. He withstood the pressure and won the match point for VC first!"
Wang Yuning's mood was actually not as relaxed as the commentators described him. He shook his fists in excitement.
Whether it is the endgame itself or the meaning of this endgame, it puts a lot of pressure on Wang Yuning.
Fortunately, winning consecutive rounds has made Wang Yuning feel better and his thinking is very clear.
He looked at the fans cheering for them in the audience and waved to them.
After winning this round, his thinking became clearer.
"In the next round, we still won't play regular defense." Wang Yuning quickly explained the tactics. "S1mple's position can only be considered good. I will try to take a shot later to put some pressure on them."
"But according to my guess, GG still plays the same way. They are afraid of your sniper, so they will usually come to get the information as soon as possible."
"We wait for the first wave of bombs to end, listen to their props, and then the director and NIKO will pull out to clear the middle."
"Don't give them a chance to complete the default and disrupt their rhythm, then we will win!"
"If we hold on to the last point, we will be the top four, come on, come on!!"
"Go, go, go!"
VC people are very popular!
The countdown begins, according to Wang Yuning's arrangement.
S1mple entered VIP as usual, and took a shot at the past point while stuck.
Unfortunately, the kill is not displayed in the upper right corner.
S1mple had no choice but to go back to the A2 floor.
At the same time, NIKO waited in the smoke of the arch for a long time.
After the director was in place, they also heard the sound of flashes and explosions in the middle.
The kid caught the flash early after the long box, and after hearing NIKO's feedback, he directly threw a jumper.
"Bang!"
Two flash bombs exploded in COSCO, and a moving bandit covered his eyes and the screen turned completely white.
NIKO emerged from the smoke, saw the bandits next to the phone booth in the middle road, and immediately opened fire.
However, the director's gun was faster, and NIKO didn't even hit it.
"What a gun!" NIKO praised, and then retreated into the smoke of the arch.
The director was not so worried about safety issues because he had the cover of lighting up a cigarette.
I looked at where the sandbags had passed at the edge of the smoke, but I didn't find anyone filling in the gun.
His courage grew.
"The director very boldly jumped on the small railing B and stared into the sewer. NIKO was protecting him in the direction of the gang entrance."
"The director's boldness paid off for him, and the little black man in the sewer was directly killed."
"Loxi pulled over to replenish the gun. The director has never fired an M4 before. If he has an AK this time, he can still kill!"
Because of the angle at which the cigarette was lit, NIKO was unable to reload the gun at this time, so he could only aim at the cigarette.
It's just a pity that judging from the kill information in the upper right corner, he did not succeed in finishing the shot.
The smoke gradually dissipated, and S1mple came over with a sniper to take over.
A bandit looked towards the arch from the mouth of the bandit, and S1mple sniper immediately swung his gun.
--boom!
[VC.S1mple used AWP to kill GG.jiya]
Seeing this kill, S1mple also understood that there might be a disabled loxi behind the sandbag in the middle.
He took out his pistol and walked directly to the middle.
Loxi originally wanted to use S1mple's fire to freeze her and retreat into the gangster's mouth.
But he never expected that S1mple would be so bold and rush out with a pistol in hand.
He shot away S1mple, but was unable to do anything against NIKO behind him.
"After a fierce exchange of fire in the middle, Fox was left to face this 1V3 endgame alone."
"Can he win this endgame and send the game into overtime?"
"Fox picked up the mine bag and slowly pushed towards the middle to find an opportunity."
"But he would never have thought that NIKO would be in the sewer at this time!"
"Both sides looked at each other, but NIKO's reaction was faster!"
"14:16, VC completed their iron-blooded defense!!"
