It has been two weeks since ropz was promoted to the home team. Although his performance is still not ideal and he has not met the overall requirements of the first team, he is no longer holding back. This is a complete improvement.
Mengde didn't have much idea about this. After all, he didn't really plan to train ropz out of this Major. He was more interested in letting him absorb experience and play against some relatively weaker teams so that he could give it a try.
.
Teams at the level of GOD, AE and GG will still play it safe and let experienced guys take the field.
After the day's training, Meng De called his teammates to a hot pot restaurant, intending to let everyone relax.
After all, the packed schedule of games over the past few days has put their spirits in a state of stress.
Hangzhou is also a food desert, so hot pot is already a good choice.
Two tables were divided and we ordered a mandarin duck pot. Everyone sat down casually and waited for the water to boil.
"We'll just have a few more cups of warm water here." Wang Yuning handed the menu to the waiter and asked casually, "Coach, did you read the update released by the resort yesterday?"
"I've read it carefully several times, and the update mainly revolves around the M4A1 gun and its destination train." Meng De smiled when he thought of this, "It's a shame they can think of increasing the damage of A1.
It is estimated that A4 will almost become extinct.”
Meng De didn't think the designer's attitude was good, after all, this wave of balance was too stupid.
He knew that the designer wanted to give the rifle a balanced look, but what about this wave of updates?
The A1's original price of 3100 has been reduced to 2900, which is a full 200 yuan cheaper.
His original idea was a good one.
But what is the result? In the next competition, you can see that except for hand-type riflemen, most people will replace it with MA41.
After all, the advantages are too great!
M4A1 is originally equipped with a silencer, which prevents the team from accurately judging the position. In the past, it was just because the damage was slightly low and the hit was too scratchy, resulting in too few players using it.
The designer thought simply - since your damage is low, can't I just increase your damage?
Good guy, the damage of M4A1 is not low now, but the damage of M4A4 seems a bit low.
This balance should be learned from Riot Games!
"It's not that exaggerated, right? A4 only needs one more shot at medium and long range." Zaiwu felt that it was just one shot for the head and one for the body, so there wasn't much difference.
Meng De explained to the team members: "Then have you ever thought about where A1 is truly powerful?"
"Don't like emergency stops?"
"Two hundred dollars cheaper?"
"Silence?"
The team members expressed their opinions, and Meng De did not show off and expressed his own opinion: "Silent silence is a little bit, but the most important thing is the ability to penetrate smoke!"
"For example, the electronic guy is holding an M4A4 and firing at the smoke grenades. What would you do, gla1ve?"
gla1ve pondered for two seconds and expressed his thoughts: "Wait for a second, judge Ah Dian's position from the gun line, and then perform anti-mixing."
"But what if he has A1 in his hand?"
At this moment, everyone at Meng De's table understood.
A firearm like the A1 is silent and has a small flame. Once it is mixed with smoke, you will not be able to touch its specific location. You can only rely on feeling and guessing!
"Originally, it was difficult to attack when the props could be discarded. Now the resort club has made it impossible for teams with weak attacks to play."
Perhaps in the first few games, everyone was relatively conservative and unwilling to try new things.
But no professional player has a rigid mind, and they will quickly make changes after seeing someone start trying to use A1.
"Although the balance of this update is completely bad, everyone will take the initiative to switch to A1 starting tomorrow. We can despise this change of the designer, but we must not think that we can beat the version. The team next door in LOL thinks so.
Too many people have died on the road."
The team members thought to themselves, we have never spurned the designer, it seems that it is always you, the coach, who complains about others.
"Oh, but why did you send the train off the service map?" S1mple sighed, "Our train is also one of a kind!"
Perhaps it is because CSGO has become more popular in recent months, and the entire resort club is not so lazy anymore. They are trying to make some "surprises" for the upcoming Major competition, and want to see it on the teams participating in the competition.
To that adaptability.
"We don't have that many ideas." gla1ve smiled, "We didn't take the train in the first place, so now we can just follow the script and remove the new map."
This is one of the randomness that the resort club wants to see. Different teams make different changes in response to new changes due to different map pools.
The second team can cope with the emergence of new maps with great stability, while the first team needs to spend a lot of effort to practice new maps.
The situation of each CSGO team now should be similar to theirs, and they are all in the process of making decisions.
The emergence of new maps will inevitably be accompanied by the emergence of new unique teams. This is part of the randomness they want.
At this point, Meng De thinks that they have done a good job, but the changes to the firearms are a bit too NT.
The defensive end has been enhanced twice in a row, which will greatly affect the current version of the professional ecology.
Because not all teams are good at offensive and defensive ends like VC. There are many teams that are good at defense or offense. After this update, those teams that are good at defense will be promoted to T1 in one step, while those that are only good at offense will
The strength of the team will also be greatly reduced.
This is the drawback of this update.
All Meng De can do now is to prepare the players to practice A1, so as not to suffer losses due to unfamiliarity with firearms when entering the competition.
The next afternoon.
After the nap, Meng De woke up all the players and asked them to start today's training match.
His main focus today is on the first team.
"Who did the coach have a training appointment with this afternoon?" S1mple asked sleepily as he yawned.
"Play three training games with AO." Meng De reminded, "Renren's performance on the field has been quite good recently, so don't overturn."
Xantares? S1mple was immediately happy when he heard this.
He and the Turkish ruthless man are both top scorers and are one of the two major instructors in the ladder.
S1mple will always get annoyed by Xantares peeking in the ladder. At this time, he will often say something: "If you have the ability, you can also peek like this in the game."
Now that he finally had the opportunity to treat his old teammate, he suddenly lost all sleep and wished that the training match would start in the next second.
A few minutes later, a team of people took their positions one after another, looking at the team members who were all ready.
Meng De was coaching and sent a message: "We are ready here, what do you say over there?"
After more than ten seconds, Coach AO replied: "Two minutes, Shroud's mouse is broken, please replace it with a new one."
Two minutes later, a message popped up on the phone again: "That's it, just invite Xantares in."
During the discussion between the two parties, the first map was chosen to be the ancient ruins that had just been updated.
VC started as a defensive player and won the training match very easily.
Because the current service map has only been updated for a few days, they haven't even figured out how to report points in some areas on the map, let alone researched key offensive props.
The main theme of the whole game is an abstraction. If the IDs of both sides are covered, they will think that this is a C ranking with a more accurate gun.
However, this kind of training match is not without its effect. While the training match was unfolding, Mengde also took a signature pen and started recording continuously in his notebook.
Areas where there are frequent firefights, areas where players feel comfortable firing on the defensive end, these are recorded.
Because the research props start from this point.
Your props must make your opponent feel uncomfortable, so as long as they are restricted so that the opponent cannot output well, these offensive props will be effective.
Meng De took out his cell phone and wanted to send a message to coach AO to play a few more games of Ancient Ruins.
But when I took out my phone, Coach AO’s message had already been sent:
"Don't play this map in the future. Various props have not been researched yet, so this training match feels useless."
Meng De:……
obviously.
The AO coaches did not realize that this type of training would rapidly increase their proficiency and control over this map.
Meng De did not continue to persuade. After all, AO and them were in a competitive relationship.
As a team in the same division, he can have the opportunity to help them, but it is impossible for him to chew up things and feed them to them.
However, even within the club, Mengde does not intend to let the second team assist the first team in this kind of training.
Regular training matches are fine, but this kind of special training improves opponents, which may be difficult for teammates to accept.
After all, they will be rivals in the next Major!
Although they would not refuse this approach to help their opponents improve, Meng De would not make it difficult for them.
However, with the addition of ropz, there are a total of 6 people in the team, who can carry out local 3V3 attacks. It also simulates the appearance of the first wave of attacks, and there is no need to worry about being unable to train later.
Since the opponent was unwilling to continue playing this map, Meng De did not intend to force it, so he typed a reply to Coach AO.
The second training map came to Lost City in the Desert. On this map, Meng De asked the kid to play.
VC starts as the offensive side, and AO starts as the defensive side.
At the beginning, Wang Yuning directed the team to play a wave of slow B and small double B, and successfully won the pistol round.
The training match reached 3:0 in a blink of an eye, and the two sides officially entered the long-range game.
At this point, Wang Yuning did not make too fancy a tactical move, but simply launched a wave of explosive attacks in area A.
After being stuck for 1 minute, the A1 and A2 floors were in place. Police cigarettes, platform cigarettes, and link cigarettes were given out one after another, and a hearty attack began.
The tactics are relatively simple, and the VC deployment is also very smooth.
But before this wave of bomb attacks, VC did not exchange props with them, which left the defenders with a lot of props left.
At Pack Point A, Xantares threw a smoke bomb directly between the long and short boxes. While providing protection for himself, he also used the characteristics of the smoke bomb to blend in and set up the A2 building on the edge.
The kid came out in sync with his A1 teammates. He only saw a cloud of smoke bombs, and was knocked out by a shuttle.
The M4A1's noise-cancelling characteristics allowed him to only determine that the opponent was at the encirclement point.
The director who was following the kid rushed out and wanted to replenish his gun, but he had no specific information, and his preview was a step off when he first came out.
The ruthless man opened fire with an M4A1, killing the director as well.
"Long box! Long box!" The moment he was killed, the director finally saw clearly where Xantares was.
But after Xantares got two kills, he still didn't stop what he was doing. He jumped directly onto the short box, got up and hit A1 with a shuttle and dropped S1mple in seconds. Wang Yuning's follow-up shot was very fast.
But after the ruthless man killed three times in a wave, the opponent's defense was in place, and Lao Wang and NIKO couldn't even get out of A1.
"This is so fucking perverted!!" the kid complained, "I can't get any information at all!"
Yesterday, I was sitting at the children's table and didn't hear the discussion between Meng De and the others. Meng De asked them to practice A1 in the morning. They were just performing tasks, but they didn't think there would be much change in this update of A1.
They didn't pay much attention to Meng De's repeated reminders, but now Xantares made them understand the power of A1 in one round.
"In this case, the subsequent effect of one-way smoke may become very powerful!" Wang Yuning made his own judgment based on experience.
After all, it is impossible to determine the specific location through the sound of gunfire. This ability is a bit too buggy.
After sighing, they continued to engage in training matches.
Soon in the training match with AO, they discovered another powerful feature of A1 - the stability of long-distance gun shooting!
This silenced weapon does much higher damage than the M4 at mid-range, and is also much more accurate.
In long-distance shooting, it is even better than AK47, which is a bit too scary!
Then on a big map like an amusement park, will the bandits also want to pick up A1 to play with?
Only then did they finally understand the changes in the offensive and defensive ecology mentioned by Meng De.
This training match ended up losing to AO. They were a little confused by Xantares' silent A1. After the game, they all changed to M4A1. If they couldn't beat them, they would join. This was the easiest way to learn.
Just when they were all confident and ready to give AO a heavy blow in the third training map, team leader Wu Qiang hurried over from outside.
"What's wrong?" Meng De took off his headphones and asked.
"Major...Major has been temporarily canceled and may be postponed!"
"What the hell!!" Meng De stood up immediately. He couldn't believe this information. After all, this was no joke.
Looking at the mobile phone Wu Qiang raised, there was a message just released by the resort:
"After being affected by the Kiev region, we had no choice but to make a difficult decision to temporarily cancel the Major competition. We hope to be able to safely hold this kind of international event, but the Kiev region makes it impossible for us to guarantee the personal safety of the players and to allow all teams to
Assembling offline, we are considering re-selecting the host area, please wait for follow-up news..."
When the members of the team who were still training heard this, they immediately stopped thinking about training.
Because this news has a huge impact on them!
Meng De could predict that in the next moment, the entire circle would be panicked.
