After a simple BP, the first picture of the game between AO and the South American team came to the Death Amusement Park.
In the map selection of the South American team, AO starts as the defender.
This was the opponent's map selection, but AO relied on Shroud's front support at the construction site to successfully knock out the mine pack, and then relied on timely adjustment of the defensive formation to win the pistol round.
In the strong round, Shroud started a crazy killing mode with MP9, directly giving the team's sniper a big sniper in the long gun round.
But the good times didn't last long. Before this big sniper could take advantage, the small Xanteres in A was the first to be disrupted due to poor timing.
The big sniper hiding in the toilet was also caught and killed with an empty shot, and the long gun bureau was completely defeated.
"FLJ is still too immature." S1mple was chewing melon seeds while commenting on FTJ's recent operation. "The ruthless person should have run away immediately after Xiao A died. In the end, the big sniper didn't move at all. When the rifle was
What about a fight?"
FTJ was in the toilet. Even if the shot missed, he wouldn't be able to survive the rest.
This is the experience gap between snipers. Xantres has a lot of competition experience, but the experience of a young player like FTJ is far behind.
No one else refuted it, because from their perspective, the operations of AO, a young sniper, were indeed too abstract.
Then in the next round, FTJ himself took out an unarmored sniper.
As a result, this sniper still only killed one person in Area A before being disposed of, which can be regarded as a blood loss!
"It's hard to explain!" NIKO, who only knew how to fire cannons, shook his head. "You have the most expensive gun, but you can only exchange it for one. What's the use of it."
The semi-armored pistols of several other people did not kill anyone. In the next round of AO, only the Turkish ruthless hero M4A1 was left.
This heroic M4 did not create miracles. Area B without firearms was once again captured by a wave. Xantares felt that he had become stable today and turned on the gun-saving mode again.
When the third spear round came, AO's choice immediately filled everyone in the lounge with questions:
"Why did you take out a naked sniper again!!"
NIKO was dumbfounded: "I don't even dare to play like this on the ladder. The first two big snipers only got one head, and now I continue to snipe. What is AO thinking?"
Sure enough, FTJ, the unarmored sniper, didn't kill any of them this time, and was directly stuck to the opponent and killed.
Fortunately, PP and Shroud in area B caught the opponent's single-touch member and brought the number back.
After entering the endgame, Xantares and PP each performed well, and AO finally tied the score.
After the round ended, AO finally called a timeout, but as a result of the timeout, they still did not give up the idea of letting FTJ take the big sniper, which was a bit confusing to everyone in VC.
But it has to be said that they chose to believe in the young general.
The young general also really dared to take on the big sniper. In the subsequent rounds, he finally did not have to stand in a position that could only be changed, and he played more flexibly.
This sniper rifle also played a role in influencing the situation.
AO started to score points like crazy. The South American team's map control rhythm had to be careful with this big sniper that was always there, which was very uncomfortable.
In the end, AO scored 9 points in the first half. After switching to the offensive side, Xantares used three consecutive triple kills to completely defeat the opponent.
The opponent's state even continued into Figure 2. During the nuclear crisis, AO was beaten 6:0 at the beginning before they could react, but by this time it was already a bit late.
In the end, with the shouts of Xantares and others, they successfully advanced to the legendary group and entered the top 16 of the Magic City Major - becoming VC's next possible opponent!
"Let's go, having fun is enough. Let's analyze the opponents in tomorrow's game. Don't overturn on the first day of the game." Meng De waved.
Two hours of relaxation time is already a good time. Next, they will use the results of today's game to analyze their opponents on the first day of the legendary group to take advantage of them.
…
All the matches in the Major challenger group are over. The fierce competition and the enthusiastic audience in the audience can be called a successful conclusion.
After the second stage of the Major ended, these teams that successfully advanced also got a short breather.
However, the members of the previous championship group were not so relaxed. They had to seize the time to study the members of these legendary groups. Even a simple study and understanding of their styles would be great.
Broky finished today's bodywork training, took a sip of ice coke, picked up his phone and started browsing the forum.
There are still two days before the start of the Legend Group competition, which not only gives the teams in the Challenger Group a time to adjust, but also gives netizens a time to discuss.
Everyone immediately started discussing the level of strength of the 16 teams in this year’s legendary group.
[I say there is nothing wrong with being the best VC in the world]
[Don’t brag, weren’t you beaten by GOD before? You’re still the best in the world]
[I'm optimistic about Team A. The previous IEM Imperial City Station, Zaiwu Ke made me stupid]
[The Danes have performed well in recent months, and they feel like they are recovering as a dynasty]
[VC and AE are on the same level, GOD and A team are on the same level, YSG and FG are on the other level, and the rest are just rotten fish and shrimps]
[How come my big HC can’t get into your eyes?]
Because of different personalities, players have different preferences and have subjective impressions of the players' abilities.
Coupled with the start of the legendary group betting, the popularity has remained high on major social platforms, and many CSGO bloggers have come out to publish their betting results.
Broky actually also posted his betting results on his account, which unexpectedly aroused ridicule from netizens, because he only got 3 correct bets in the challenger group, and he directly announced that he had no luck with Diamond Coin.
Broky could only cry and comfort himself that the gold coins would retain their value, but even he didn't know if he could get the gold coins. After all, the next legendary group guessing was not that simple.
After thinking about it, I opened the live broadcast and titled it: "Legendary Group Betting, Do you know CSGO?"
When the live broadcast started, many fans who followed Broky were quite surprised. After all, he always hangs out in the live broadcast rooms of various players, and he often rarely broadcasts one day a month.
[Grandpa, the anchor you are following has finally started broadcasting! 】
[Broccoli is finally on air, is this the director’s task? 】
【Broccoli’s quiz, don’t be ridiculous? 】
"Time will prove who is the real god of betting!" Broky was quite disdainful of the remarks in the live broadcast room. He opened the client and came to the betting page. He began to analyze one by one:
"The Legend Group of this Major consists of 16 teams, which are composed of the top 8 members of the previous Championship Group and the current Challenger Group."
"The last championship group was FG from France, AE and YSG from Denmark, GG, HC and GOD from Europe. My first and second teams. Looking at it this way, the results of the last CIS were really good.
It’s terrible, there isn’t even one in the top eight.”
"The top 8 in this challenger group are China's AO, Europe's IMO, SSS, Chariot, TG, North America's Poseidon, South America's Samba, and CIS's AKA."
"According to convention, we have to fill in the teams below that can stably advance. 3-0 and 0-3 are just for fun, so - first put GG above 3-0."
Some viewers in the live broadcast room burst out laughing. Broky had been laying the groundwork for so long and just took GG for fun. However, after laughing, GG fans became numb, as if there was nothing wrong with what Broky said.
"We will select the best among the next 7 promotion teams. We will select 4 from the previous championship group, 3 from the challenger group, and then pick the worst one to go 0-3."
"I definitely have to choose between my own team and my own team. Needless to say, there are only 2 places left in the championship group. kennyS has to choose one, so let's fill in FG. The Danish dynasty has to respect one, AE
You have to fill it in too."
"There are three teams left. Xantares respects one hand. Aloha is very good to me. Choose one. The remaining one is Samba. They played pretty well last time. In the end, they were somewhere between the previous one.
The CIS performance was too poor, so AKA was ranked above 0-3."
Broky's quiz focuses on the emotional card, which is all about emotion and no rationality!
This is also because the betting is not important to him in the first place. If they really want to distinguish their strength, even they themselves can't tell the difference.
Coming to the legendary group, they are already the 16 most powerful teams in the world at this stage.
The strength gap between teams is not as big as imagined, so the team's preparation and on-the-spot performance become particularly important.
In the next legendary group's first stop, Team A will have to face the opponent they encountered at the IEM Imperial City Station, the Internet cafe team TG from Europe.
The strength of this team is not strong, which can be clearly felt from the confrontation in IEM Imperial City, which was probably the weakest opponent they encountered that time.
However, TG can rely on its own ability to enter the legendary group, which is proof of its strength. They must not underestimate their opponents just because they have won before.
…
The first day of the Legend Group of the Magic City Major.
Meng De took the team members on a bus to the Magic City Stadium. Team A's game was in the first game. He was also planning to focus on the second team in this Major.
A team's current style of play relies more on state and thinking, and Lao Wang can already call a timeout rationally.
Therefore, his focus is mainly on the second team. He has been leading the first team for a long time. Now that the new lineup of the second team has finally found its way, he naturally wants to help.
After going to the lounge and making some simple adjustments, Team A went to the competition room to prepare for the game after being notified by the competition team.
The players began to adjust the equipment, while Meng De had a simple guessing game with the opponent's coach to determine the priority of today's BP.
Meng De won the guessing game and won the team the right to choose the map.
After the two sides went through a round of BP, for some unknown reason, the other party finally left them a Desert Maze, which made Meng De wonder if they fell asleep without watching the finals of the IEM Imperial City Station.
Doesn't the performance of the cargo carry any deterrent effect at all?
But being able to choose Lost City is pretty good for the entire team, and everyone's mood is quite high.
Both parties debug the equipment and start entering the server.
VC.A vs. TG
Map: Lost City in the Desert
T:gla1ve,Zywoo,DD,Broky,Jamyoung
CT:Bkk,T2jk,yui,Believe,Mook
Both sides are ready.
"The game has started. Welcome to the first day of the Magic City Major Legend Group, the game between VC.A and TG. I am the commentator Henry."
"I'm Jonny the commentator."
After a brief greeting, Henry looked at the game and said: "Judging from the real-time data on the Ranger platform, VC.A has a support rate of 75% in this game, so let's see if they can compete with
The strength of this support rating matches.”
At the beginning of the pistol round, gla1ve arranged a 4B1A position and purchased two sets of props to assist the attack.
At the beginning, they were standing on the B2 floor, collecting information about Area B and the sewers.
After confirming that there was no forward pressure in the middle, DD and Broky quietly pushed forward to the sewer, all the way to the VIP, and then silently lifted Broky up.
After securing Broky in place, DD quietly returned to the B2 floor and came to the front of the team to wait for orders.
gla1ve looked at the time and said, "Xiaoju should go out and get the information."
Hearing this, Xiao Ju from A1 immediately went out to investigate, and soon there was a firefight with the other two.
Broky took advantage of this and immediately entered through the VIP window, silently walking to the supermarket.
T2jk, who was attracted to look at A, did not notice the explosive bomb in area A. He suddenly became suspicious and came back to take a look at the VIP, but did not find anyone there.
But he didn't know that Broky, who acted quickly, had already entered the supermarket.
After confirming this situation, everyone on the B2 floor just moved to the front point, not in a hurry to fire explosive bombs forward, just waiting for Broky to get the information.
"There is something wrong with the timing of this TG. No one knows that Broky entered the supermarket like this!" Henry felt a little incredible.
Jonny added: "The main reason is that Team A is so good at playing. They used the firefight in Area A to attract the attention of the CT in the VIP. Broky only started to touch the supermarket after hearing the footsteps. He didn't rush to catch him.
Do you know Jungle’s CT? It’s so calm!”
"Broky entered the B site and saw the CT in front of him. He was not in a hurry. He was still looking for the second person's position and saw it on the package box!"
"Broky's first shot directly knocked out the CT at the close point! The second shot directly knocked out the CT at the base point! Area B was immediately empty! gla1ve didn't even lose any props, and this pistol round was immediately over."
The trio of TGs in Area A were all stunned. Why did Area B suddenly fall while they were fighting? There was no information at all.
They looked at their teammates in Area B with questioning eyes, but saw that their teammates in Area B were also confused: "How did you let the person come over? We were both stolen from behind! We died instantly."
The people who were still alive were also confused. They didn't know when they would let him go, but they could clearly see where they were.
But now that Zone B has been defeated without even fighting back, it is basically impossible for them to return to defense.
TG's command can only allow them to maintain armor in order to seek a comeback in the next round.
Team A quickly captured the bag point in area B. gla1ve opened his mouth to direct the next operation: "DD, take the props and you will guard the point. Xiaoju, you also throw the props out. The opponent should not be planning to defend.
The two of us and Sushu went to hand over their guns."
TG wanted to save three armors and buy Famas for a comeback in the next round, but this idea did not come true. Team A killed all TG at the cost of 2 for 3, and successfully won the pistol round.
