(I modified some content in the previous chapter, and I overturned the transitional content. Yesterday I was really anxious to write it)
After successfully winning the ECS Season 8 League Championship, everyone at Little Bee is very happy.
"The only regret is that I couldn't compete with Team A. It's a pity." Xu Beifang packed his luggage and chatted with Zaiwu beside him.
Zaiwu thought for a while: "Actually, it's not bad. In the state of Team A, you may not be willing to fight against them."
He knows Xu Beifang well and knows that this guy is very strong and prefers to play against high-level teams.
In this ECS league, I don’t know if Team A is in poor condition or if they are deliberately hiding something.
Anyway, the final performance level is definitely not satisfactory.
Even if they meet, Beifang will definitely not be particularly happy.
"That's true." Xu Beifang nodded and quickly packed his luggage.
How happy they are during their vacation, how busy they will be at work next.
Because they finally won the championship group at the last Katowice Major, so this time in the Berlin Major, there is no need to specifically choose time to play in the auditions and challenger group games.
But they still had to head to Cologne non-stop to participate in the ESL ONE Cologne competition.
This game in Cologne is very important for the next Major.
If we rank it by CSGO games.
Then the Major is definitely well-deserved and will be ranked first.
First of all, the Major is an officially authorized competition by Valve. It will even sell stickers, player trophies and other honors simultaneously with the game, so that players will always remember your ID and remember that there was such a player who broke into the Major. race.
Secondly, the Major is a competition with auditions all over the world.
For example, IEM series events or Blast series events, it is more difficult for some small teams to participate.
The IEM series is okay, there are several spots in one division.
As for the Blast series of events, it is ridiculously difficult for unknown small teams to participate. You have to pass the audition, get 8 pre-selected places, and then fight your way out of these 8 pre-selected places to enter the main event. race.
In comparison, unknown small teams such as the Major have a greater chance of advancing.
The two Majors every year are T0 level competitions.
There are two T1 level games.
One was in Katowice before the Major in the first half of the year. This year is an exception. Katowice directly hosted the Major.
The second game is Cologne in the second half of the year.
Perhaps because the game started before the Major, everyone joked that these two games were the first step in becoming a dynasty.
If you want to get the Major, you must first get past Cato or Cologne.
Next, Little Bee will participate in ESL ONE Cologne and compete with a group of top teams for the Cologne trophy!
JackZ has already packed his luggage and is looking in the mirror to admire today's outfit. "By the way, have you seen the update of today's resort club?"
"Not yet, what's wrong?" Xu Beifang folded a piece of clothing and asked in confusion.
"Then you have missed a great show. The professional circle is about to undergo a major reshuffle!!"
Xu Beifang shook his head: "You always make such a fuss, what big news can the resort make?"
After that, he took out his mobile phone and directly found the official account of Valve on Twitter.
But just now he was saying that Old Jack was making a fuss. After seeing the information released by the resort, he himself became the first to fall silent.
He took a breath, looked at the messages on his phone, and murmured to himself: "Many of these teams will be cut down with this sword."
Valve is a very slow game company. As some of the best FPS games in the world, their updates are ridiculously slow.
But it has to be said that they often make unexpected changes that can make players in the entire game environment overwhelmed.
In the update announcement, the resort simply issued a very concise statement:
[Update announcement:
20th Anniversary:
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of CS, we hereby launch the retro version of Sand City II, which has now been added to the casual mode map group. The CSGO version and CS version will be switched every two games.
Chicken capsules can be purchased in the game.
Game content:
Tweaked AUG to bring performance closer to other rifles
Slightly reduced AUG fire rate
Reduced the aiming accuracy of AUG without opening the scope
Number one special training
Fixed a bug where items could be obtained repeatedly through equipment dropped by other players
Players will now spawn closer to their teammates during warm-up
Players will be equipped with a random pistol when they are born in warm-up]
This update is only 73.5MB, but the content is worth talking about.
At the beginning of 2019, Valve suddenly reduced the prices of the AUG and SG553, letting everyone see how high the fault tolerance rate of these two firearms is. Even if the price of the AUG was later increased, it still could not stop everyone's love.
No way, this gun is really easy to use.
The bullet speed is fast and the average damage per second is very high. In addition, it can be used at short and long distances. It was even used as a continuous sniper. It is really a bit abnormal.
In comparison, SG553 is considered a younger brother to him.
The rise of ENCE also followed the rise of AUG.
Although XiaoBei has practiced AUG before, except for Xu Beifang and Zaiwu, no one else used it particularly well, and they did not get a lot of bonuses.
Unlike ENCE, which is full of young people, the rise of only one firearm has raised the level of the entire team.
Xu Beifang took a closer look at the updated content.
Reduced fire rate.
It also reduces the accuracy when the scope is not turned on. In other words, the ability to engage in close-range firefights and long-range firefights has been slashed.
In the future, we may not see the proliferation of AUGs on the professional stage.
"On the professional stage in the future, there may be very few people using AUG." JackZ expressed his opinion.
In fact, he quite likes to use the AUG. In a close-range firefight, he can shoot a headshot directly with one shot, and he can use the AUG to block the position from a long distance, which is very good.
But I just like it, not to the point of having to use it.
"In the future, in Faceit and FPL, the level of players should also be able to improve." Zaiwu added.
He feels clearly about this. A low-level player can directly upgrade to a higher level by using AUG. After all, it is too easy to set up a gun with a mirror.
This weakening of AUG will definitely make those players who only play old man's music show their true colors.
Xu Beifang soon also saw the video of other players testing the new AUG. Looking at the rate of fire and bullet trajectory, he couldn't help but laugh.
"It's true that this resort club will be destroyed by this move." Xu Beifang commented, "In addition to disrupting our professional circle, does this have any other effect?"
First strengthening a wave of AUG, and then weakening a wave of AUG, it means that I have updated the content twice this year.
Top fishing planning!
But Xu Beifang can actually understand it.
Although everyone ridicules V Club as a holiday club, V Club’s idea is very good.
They want to make every aspect of the game balanced.
In 2018, basically all players were using the two main battle weapons, M4A4 and AK47.
In a professional battle, when the economy is good, other options can be close to none.
They want to make the confrontation in professional games more dynamic through some small changes.
The promotion of AUG at the beginning of the year directly raised the selection rate of AUG to an exaggerated level, and even became very common in the game.
This obviously did not fit in with their ideas, so they tried to adjust the price, trying to use price to increase the selection rate of M4 and other firearms.
But 300 yuan cannot buy the hearts of AUG players, so now they have no choice but to take another stab at it.
Xu Beifang scrolled through Twitter.
Sure enough, this change in firearms has caused many people to discuss this content.
NIKO: I like this update. I have been killed by AUGs too many times in professional competitions in the past six months! !
As a true rifleman, NIKO hates firearms with mirrors such as AUG and SG553.
In his opinion, M4A4 and AK47 are the real rifles, while AUG and SG553 are complete heretics!
NIKO is a sensory person, he prefers the atmosphere of identity.
He felt that a rifleman should have the qualities of a rifleman. Wearing a mirror is not a rifleman. It is better to take out an AWP and be a pure sniper.
Xu Beifang doesn't care. He is purely pragmatic. If the gun is easy to use, he will use it. If it doesn't work, he won't force it.
Yushen also tweeted: From now on, it will be impossible for CT to use AUG to secure kills.
Although the resort club is very lazy, most players and professionals in the industry think very well of this update.
"Actually, it's time for the resort club to take action." Swani expressed his thoughts, "If he doesn't take action, the professional game will lose its vitality."
Then he gave a statistic: "In the first half of the year, the average selection rate of AUG in major first-tier competitions was 25.3%, second only to the main battle weapon AK47. This statistic is too exaggerated."
"The defensive side has obtained main battle weapons that are comparable to, and in many cases even better than, the offensive side. The game has lost its balance. If this continues, the top 20 may be filled with teams that are good at defense."
Analysts commented: "In the next ESL Cologne, most professional players should return to M4, so next you have to adjust your thinking and don't subconsciously pick up AUG as soon as you see it. The current order of weapons It should be AK>M4>AUG."
"When we get to Cologne later, we have to train the M4 again."
"That's no problem." Xu Beifang has been prepared for this. "We have always practiced the M4, just to prevent V Club from doing this. Now we only need a little practice to master the M4."
When Xu Beifang joined Little Bee, it was the time when AUG was rising.
But his past life experience told him that AUG was weakened for a while.
So I took precautions early.
And this defense is indeed useful. Practice M4 more so that they will not be too embarrassed in professional competitions.
For example, if they face Faze, if ECO makes a comeback, it will definitely capture a bunch of M4s. At this time, if they haven't practiced M4 for too long and make mistakes in gun control, it will be embarrassing.
swani also nodded.
Analysts are more responsible for providing data before the game to help players arrange training.
As for the specific training quality, that is what the coach controls.
JackZ had a wicked smile on his face: "Then, the most painful team will definitely be ENCE. It depends on whether they can overcome this difficulty."
ENCE was called the "AUG team" this year, and the bonus they received from AUG was an exaggeration.
AUG was weakened once in April, increasing its price by 300 yuan, but this did not affect the strength of AUG. ENCE still showed great strength in the professional arena.
But this time it was different. The last time the resort club's knife was not painful or itchy, this time it hit the main artery directly, which really hurt the muscles and bones.
Xu Beifang glanced at his phone, and he happened to catch the discussion about ENCE:
[I don’t know why, but after this version update, I am looking forward to the ENCE game]
[A team that can only play AUG will probably become useless without AUG]
[If ENCE has the ability to use M4 to stabilize its ranking, then I really think ENCE is a very strong team]
【Do you know what EZ4ENCE is? 】
The resentment among fans of all major teams is deep.
Especially NAVI fans.
At the Katowice Major, S1mple was defeated by ENCE with an AUG in a solo 1V4, and the scene of losing the game was a painful scene for many NAVI fans.
Now that they saw that ENCE might have problems, they immediately stood up and watched the show.
Xu Beifang touched his chin and murmured: "Speaking of which, ESL Cologne and ENCE are also among the participating teams this time."
"Well, not only ENCE is here, but the A team that you miss so much is also here." swani added, "By the way, this time ESL Cologne, NAVI used a new lineup, Edward was eliminated, and NAVI promoted a little fat guy from the CIS. Come up, it’s the captain of Winstrike.”
"Which one?" shox was puzzled. He had played too few games against the CIS, and these second-tier teams were all quite unfamiliar.
Xu Beifang took over the conversation: "I know this Boomb14. When Huo Man had 32 kills in the half, he was in jail on the opposite side."
"Good guy, the opponent I beat up became my teammate."
Analyst swani said: "He seemed to be a leader in the previous team. During his time in Winstrike, his average rating was 1.10. As a leader, this is a very good statistic."
"NAVI's ambitions are huge!" Xu Beifang sighed. He knew in his heart that the strongest NAVI team was gradually putting together the pieces of their puzzle.
shox lamented: "Edward and Zeus have both reached the age of retirement."
"It's time to retire," Swani said. "Edward has been doing well in many competitions. If he continues like this, he will be merciless."
As a player of the same era, seeing these former opponents retiring one by one, he would inevitably feel a little sad.
He is just glad that after being kicked out by G2, his choice was successful and now he has joined a good team. Everything in the team is on the right track. They feel that the future is bright.
shox is already considered an older player in the CSGO industry, and he clearly feels that the gap between himself and these young talents is getting wider and wider.
But he didn't know how long his condition could last.
Xu Beifang was also interested and directly searched for Cologne's entry form on his mobile phone.
In addition to Little Bee, Team A, NAVI and ENCE, the other teams participating this time are also familiar to each other.
Liquid, which has just won a championship and is now ranked second in the world, Faze clan, which has appeared in the public eye with a new lineup, NRG, which is ranked 6th in the world, the strongest rising star in the past few months, and NRG, which is ranked 7th in the world. Black Panther, and then a group of teams ranging from 10th to 16th in the world.
The two worst teams, ranked 34th and 35th, are German tank Big and South Korea's MVP respectively.
It can be said that except for the MVP, the other teams are all as strong as each other.
Whoever wins the championship is possible.
"Don't think about watching ENCE's fun." XTQZZZ heard their discussion outside and walked in and said, "For us, the weakening of AUG is actually disadvantageous."
Zaiwu looked at the coach in confusion, confusion written all over his face.
XTQZZZ explained: "If you look at it broken down, the construction of our entire team system is to let Zaiwu play the role in the middle of the team, and the north will set the rhythm. We use the players to build the team's play style."
"The performance of Beifang and Zaiwu will greatly affect the results of our competition. You should all feel this."
Both shox and Old Jack nodded.
Just like this league, they have reached the finals before they feel anything.
Is it because the opponent is too weak?
That's definitely not right. The main reason is that Zaiwu has found its own position and can set the rhythm.
Both sides exerted force at the same time, and the opponent was completely unable to withstand the pressure.
shox is simply the art of winning with one hand.
apEX has also become a cheerleader, just waving the flag and cheering from behind.
The two core big daddies are in good condition, which makes it much easier for them overall.
"This time AUG has been weakened, but don't forget that SG553 is still active on the field, which is equivalent to making the defense more difficult for the defender."
shox gasped, making an outstanding contribution to global warming.
Only then did he remember this incident.
AUG can only be purchased by the defender, and the attacker can only pick it up and use it when killing the opponent.
But now only the defensive side's mirrored gun is weakened, while the offensive side's mirrored gun is not weakened, and the overall difficulty of defense rises sharply.
Xu Beifang didn't expect that there were still these ways. He thought that the resort just pulled the data back, but he forgot that SG553 was also enhanced at the same time.
In the first half of the year, the defender was too powerful with the AUG firearm, so in the second half of the year, the resort club directly slashed the defender, making the attacker more comfortable.
Valve has an idea!
"So from a clear perspective, they have weakened ENCE. In fact, they still want to prevent the game from becoming the same." XTQZZZ laughed, "What they really want to do is to attack Team A."
As the recognized number one in the world today.
The Danish dynasty has left a profound mark on the history of CSGO.
Their strength is so strong that many CSGO players have lost their desire to watch the game.
“You don’t have to watch Team A’s game, you wake up to another big win.”
This sentence is the evaluation of many CSGO players after the A-Team game.
Team A's disciplined and militarized style of play makes people feel suffocated.
They are so strong that the audience even hopes that another strong team will appear and defeat them in the first-line arena, otherwise the game will not be exciting at all.
Doudou said: "But it won't have much impact on Team A as a whole."
"Indeed, it can only be said that their strength has been slightly weakened."
Team A's defense is very strong, but that doesn't mean their offense is weak.
Now the world's number one conductor, gla1ve's influence on the offensive end is too exaggerated. He can accurately read the opponent's direction like a clairvoyant, which is outrageous.
"That's enough." Xu Beifang had a confident smile on his face, "If we have to wait until Valve continues to kill Team A before we can overthrow their dominance on the field, then defeating them won't be that interesting. ”
The apEX people turned to look at each other and smiled at each other.
"I just like how fearless you are!"
The Little Bee team soon took a plane to Cologne, Germany.
Because they had prepared in advance, their time was not tight.
Because of the changes in firearms, XTQZZZ also assigned them a series of training tasks in the following days.
More is centered around the two firearms SG553 and M4A4.
He wanted to use a lot of training to let the team members find the feel of these firearms.
"Playing 10 ladder games in one day, does the coach want to be so exaggerated?"
"Why does this teammate keep dodging me!!"
"Look at his ID, his name is Broky!!"
In the temporary training room of Little Bee in Cologne, there were crazy comments.
CSGO is a game that requires concentration to play. If playing Faceit is okay, then for them, it is just relaxation and entertainment.
But XTQZZZ asked them to play FPL, which directly affects the intensity.
Xu Beifang is quite happy. He is originally one of the top instructors in FPL, and he is the one who controls thunder and lightning in FPL.
Even if the coach does not arrange this kind of training, he will play five or six games a day to put pressure on the students.
He is the kind of person who trains seriously when training and rests well when resting.
He had been on vacation for more than a month. Apart from designing the map and visiting Tianlu, he maintained the most basic amount of training every day and did not touch CSGO much during the rest of the time.
Now that we have officially entered the competition, we have to train seriously to cope with the next Cologne.
…
Every year, Katowice and Cologne attract the attention of players.
As soon as the participating teams in Cologne were released this year, it aroused a lot of discussion.
There are 16 teams, 14 of which are in the top 20. Even before the game starts, everyone can see how fierce the competition in Cologne will be.
[I feel like the Bees can win their fourth championship]
[Bold prediction, Team A will play Liquid in the final]
[What era is it, and Team A still plays liquid? Liquid has already killed Team A before]
[Team A is indeed in poor condition, which actually makes me want to watch the game]
[Indeed, when you see Team A playing, you know how many things they are planning to do]
[But the problem is, you know that he will use anti-Qing props to delay those moves, but your home team still can't beat it. Are you angry? 】
[FAZE’s new lineup, the first competition since NIKO’s improper command, I hope they can perform well]
[Looking forward to the God of War’s strength! 】
[NAVI fans are also in tears, Dehua is finally laid off]
[Cologne, whoever wins the championship feels like the Major has already won half of it]
There were a lot of discussions in the forum. Perhaps it was the approaching Major that made netizens more enthusiastic about watching the game.
And because of Team A’s performance in the ECS Season 7 League, fans of other teams also have expectations for the final championship.
If Team A really declines as they expected, then this game will be a battle between the heroes.
NIKO has returned to being a pure rifleman. How strong is the frontal firepower of FAZE? It is no longer about whether NAVI, a dual father with three treasures, can break through the curse.
Can the Little Bees continue their previous form and successfully win their fourth championship?
Whether Team A's state will continue to be sluggish is what the audience is looking forward to seeing this time.
The Little Bees in Cologne also moved into the hotel provided by the competition team shortly before the start of the competition.
The other 15 teams also moved in one after another.
The hotel officially provided by ESL has its own gym, which makes Xu Beifang feel very comfortable.
After training in the afternoon, Xu Beifang had just finished exercising when he saw ropz walking in wearing a sports suit.
"Huo, that's rare!" Xu Beifang joked, "This is the first time I see you exercising in a hotel gym."
ropz stretched out his fist to touch Xu Beifang, and then explained: "I personally feel that spending so much time on exercise every day is not worth the gain. I personally don't like to develop a figure that is too strong like yours."
"Understandable."
Even though European fitness culture is very popular, not everyone is a strong man.
Everyone's is different.
"Then why are you here today?"
ropz said: "Although I don't exercise, I still go for a run. Do you think the weather outside is suitable for running?"
It rained a little bit outside Cologne today, which made it feel very depressing.
Suddenly meeting Xu Beifang, ropz was no longer in a hurry to go for a run. He flexed his wrists and said, "Tomorrow is the time for the ESL group. I hope I won't be grouped with you, otherwise it will be difficult to get out of the group stage."
In double-elimination games, the error tolerance rate is inherently low.
In addition, this time in Cologne, the participating lineup is indeed a bit exaggerated, and ropz feels that the pressure is really great.
"Aren't you afraid of meeting Team A?" Xu Beifang teased.
"That's definitely scary." ropz shook his head, "But compared to Team A, I'm more worried about meeting you in the first round."
The team has a very strong leader, and ropz believes that even if they collide with Team A, they still have some room for maneuver.
But if you encounter Little Bee, then ropz feels that it is basically impossible to play.
Although he has strong personal abilities, he is ultimately a free man.
King Han is very talented as a rifleman, but with his current experience and ability, the pressure against Xu Beifang is still too great.
ropz can't forget it now. When he watched the IEM Sydney finals, Xu Beifang hit three five-kills with Liquid.
That's three five kills!
He could not even imagine what he would be like if he was in that situation.
With Team A's rigorous tactics, he believed that relying on his cousin's game, there was still some room for maneuver.
But when they encounter Little Bee, Xu Beifang and Zaiwu use their personal abilities to overcome cleverness, which is no fun at all.
Last year's ropz appeared on the field as the best rookie. Although he carried alone in Mouz, his position was not the big brother. His statistics were very good, but he couldn't win, and he was very helpless.
The results obtained throughout 2018 are simply unbelievable.
It was not until the beginning of 2019 that ropz saw the light of day to be released from prison with the addition of his eldest cousin and King Han.
Now it is natural to set a longer-term goal, hoping to achieve some results and clear away the haze of the past.
The two of them were just chatting when they saw NIKO walking in wearing a small vest.
"You don't even train well and just go out to play, right?" NIKO is also quite familiar with them.
He and Xu Beifang have always been close friends, and ropz is a player he once supported.
When ropz was criticized all over the Internet due to the cheating scandal, it was NIKO who stepped forward and helped him communicate with Faceit and get an opportunity for a trial training at the Faceit headquarters.
It was that time that allowed ropz to clear his reputation as a wall-hanger, and later joined Mouz and embarked on the path of Nigeria.
So he didn't have to worry about anything in front of two people.
Hearing NIKO's teasing, Xu Beifang rolled his eyes:
"If we don't train well, do you think among the three of us, if someone doesn't train well, who would it be?"
NIKO looked left and right: "It can't be me."
Xu Beifang rolled his eyes again, he was about to join the Hyuga family.
ropz just laughed from the sidelines.
He feels that the relationship between NIKO and Nice is very interesting.
Immediately afterwards, NIKO slapped Xu Beifang on the buttocks, "Don't let me meet you in the next game, or you will get a good harvest?"
"what happened again?"
Xu Beifang immediately asked, it was impossible for him to be slapped for no reason.
"You guy, do you know how I came here in the past two months?" NIKO's voice was full of resentment, "How much ecstasy soup have you poured into NEO? After he came to Faze, he never left you. "
"The left sentence is "Nice" and the other sentence is "Nice". Do you think you should hit me?"
NIKO didn't even know how Xu Beifang left such a good impression on NEO. They had only been teammates for a few months.
But when NEO came to the team, he had heard NEO say many times that Nice's offensive ideas were great and he could play alone. He was steady when he needed to be steady and aggressive when he needed to be aggressive.
As both riflemen, NIKO inevitably compares himself with Xu Beifang in his mind.
"What does this have to do with me!" Xu Beifang said, "Do you understand this is called popularity!"
NIKO snorted, but felt a little emotional in his heart.
Last year Xu Beifang was still an ignorant newcomer. Who knew that in one year, he had reached the top of CSGO and won several trophies.
Xu Beifang himself is also one of the strongest players this year.
Nowadays, their team has very few achievements, but Little Bee has begun to add to its own honors.
This will inevitably lead to some gaps.
In terms of performance, NIKO is definitely better than Xu Beifang, whether it is the number of championships or the positions he has reached.
Because of his position, Xu Beifang's performance in the first-line arena is definitely better now.
However, NIKO's voice in the forum public opinion is not particularly good. The disparity in form in the 18 Boston finals made many people criticize him as a weak player in the finals.
Compared with Xu Beifang, who is generally on the rise, the information he received was not particularly good, so he naturally felt a gap.
"Okay, if I have a chance to meet you, I will definitely use 12,000% of my strength to put pressure on you."
The three of them stood chatting at the door of the gym, and soon many other players joined them.
Xu Beifang was originally a social terrorist in the professional circle. He would chat with everyone. Suddenly, the entrance to the gym was so crowded that it became their tea party.
It wasn't until Big's coach took Xantares back for dinner that everyone left one after another.
At 8 o'clock that night, ESL finally announced the next game groupings.
The teams in Group A are: Liquid, MVP, NAVI, Mouz, Faze, Cowboys, MIBR, and NRG.
The teams in Group B are: Astralis, BIG, FURIA, Fnatic, Vitality, NIP, Heroic, ENCE
The Little Bee's opponent in the first round was none other than Heroic, the current Danish second brother.
The first round of the game was a BO1 confrontation, and many teams had accidents in the first round.
This caused everyone in Little Bee to feel a little nervous before the game started.
Although the Heroic team is not particularly famous, they have made a name for themselves in the professional arena in recent months.
The team is led by veteran Friberg, and coupled with young people like es3tag and stavn, the overall strength is very good.
Little Bee arrived at the competition room early, and when they took their seats, they also saw Heroic’s players.
It's not that they paid special attention to it, it's just that BlameF is too big!
"To be honest, if we get into a fight later, Nice, can you beat him?" JackZ asked. He knew that Xu Beifang's figure hidden under his clothes was actually quite exaggerated.
Xu Beifang snorted disdainfully: "Just one punch!"
"You can kill him with one punch?"
"Just one punch and he has to kneel down and beg me not to die?"
The sudden turn of events immediately amused the members of Little Bee.
But when the game actually started, their attitude was also very serious.
After a round of intrigue and BP, the game map was placed on the Lost City.
This is one of the few strong pictures of Little Bee, so they were very confident in choosing it.
After choosing a side in the sword fight, Little Bee will first act as the defender.
At the beginning of the pistol round, BlameF, an exaggerated muscular man, used his outrageous aim to score a triple kill, disintegrating Little Bee's B area and helping their team get a round.
Entering the second round, BlameF also played very aggressively. Little Bee once saw the shadow of Xu Beifang on the opponent's body.
In the first three rounds, BlameF directly played 7/1/1. The opponent's explosive firepower in the first few rounds made everyone in Little Bee feel the pressure.
After entering the first long gun round, apEX directed Xu Beifang to carry out a wave of forward attacks, hoping to disrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm through the first attack, so as to get the kill by fighting with guns.
However, after entering the long gun round, BlameF suddenly became more stable. Little Bee's forward attack did not get very useful information, but instead put himself in an unpleasant situation.
heroic gets one point again.
Until the fifth round, Xu Beifang was in a good position and immediately moved forward to the A2 floor. Relying on his outstanding personal ability, he counter-killed stvan, helping the team get the first kill and liberating area A.
apEX directly directed the team to place bets and successfully helped the team get the first score.
I thought this round was a change of pace, but Heroic immediately started changing speed.
After several quick mid-game moves, Heroic won the score through the endgame.
In the middle, Little Bee also called out a tactical timeout, but he didn't understand very much: "Why is this person so naive!"
Before the game, they knew that Heroic, a muscular guy, had a very old style of play.
But when I actually entered the game, I realized how disgusting BlameF was.
As long as you return to the defensive point, he will always be hanging behind you to steal your back.
You still can't catch him, which is the most disgusting thing.
As soon as they arrived at the spear bureau, this guy hid behind the team.
Then entering the round of strong play or pure E, BlameF started to become aggressive again.
The opponent's style of play disgusted apEX, and the overall rhythm of Little Bee became a bit chaotic.
Although Xu Beifang performed well in Area A, Heroic obviously avoided playing in Area A and kept playing B with variable speed and control in the middle.
Xu Beifang has very strong personal ability, but he can't play back to defense.
In the end, the score in the first half was fixed at 4:11, which was a slight disparity.
In a wave of attacks in the second half, Friberg, who plays the favorite of the machine, hit a double play and delayed the return defense.
After entering the spear game, Xu Beifang boldly introduced a few waves of rhythm, but I have to say that this BlameF is a real six. Many conventional thinking and logic are completely irrelevant to him. This guy sometimes sells his teammates to play. .
When Xu Beifang tried some, he still stole it.
In the end, the score on the first day of the game was fixed at 10:16.
Xu Beifang's record is 22/18, with an average rating of 1.28.
There is actually nothing wrong with this data. The problem lies in the defense in the first half. Players with BlameF's style will really be caught off guard for the first time.
This person's style of play is completely opposite to Xu Beifang's.
After the game, apEX was silent for a long time. He didn't say it until he got to the break room: "I finally understand why BlameF has become so strong."
"Why?"
"Because he was afraid that nine people on the court would beat him together."
…
The poor state on the first day left the Bees with no room for error, and the rest of the game became very stressful.
In the loser group on the second day, they met ENCE, who was defeated by NIP on the first day.
On the first day of the game, REZ pulled out the magic card in this BO1 and played exaggerated data of 30-15. ENCE was stunned by him in seconds.
BO1 games are prone to upsets.
Some slow-starting teams haven't even entered the state before the game is over.
Fortunately, starting from the second day, all games will be conducted in the form of BO3.
Finally, after a quick BP, the map came to the amusement park, nuclear crisis, and finally the town of Purgatory.
The Death Amusement Park is a map that Little Bee took the initiative to practice after this vacation. Although there is no guarantee of victory in the nuclear crisis, it is not as constrained as before.
Facing ENCE in BO3, Little Bee is actually not under great pressure.
After all, they have defeated ENCE several times before, and AUG was recently hacked. ENCE's strength is not considered very strong.
So from the perspective of paper strength, Little Bee still has a greater chance of winning.
However, their failure in the first round left them with no room for error. If they lost any BO3 next, they would be eliminated directly.
The Bee's goal is ultimately to reach the finals to compete for that trophy.
A round trip is definitely not what they want to see.
Yesterday's defeat was more due to BlameF's weird way that disrupted the rhythm and made everyone defenseless.
But today I met ENCE, and there weren’t that many tricks up my sleeve.
Picture 1 is the Death Amusement Park.
Having played against each other several times before, Xu Beifang was already familiar with ENCE's style of play. In the first few rounds of the match, he felt that ENCE played loosely overall and started to put pressure on them.
In the map of the amusement park, Xu Beifang is usually responsible for the platooning in area A.
In the first few rounds, the fight was quite satisfactory. There was back and forth between the two sides, and the score kept pulling.
But after entering the long gun round, Xu Beifang tore apart allu's snipers several times while advancing, and directly sent allu into the Botallu state.
Allu is a very critical firepower point for ENCE. After AUG was weakened, this big sniper became even more important.
But this big sniper was torn one after another, making Xiao Li feel that the economy was crazy, and the default could not be played.
In the subsequent rounds, the loaded objects also slowly entered the state. The bee began to make a method in order to make a constant score.
After the first half, they got 9 rounds as an attacker.
During the midfield rest time, the little plum had bitten his fingers and was thinking about the countermeasures at the brainstorm.
After the midfield rest, ENCE chose a wave of area B to attack.
Xu Bei, a single hanging area, just heard the sound of the firefire in the B area, and asked the sound of "should you return to defense".
Not even waiting for the reply, area B completed a wave of 2 changes and 5, and the load and Shox killed all the people.
After entering the second half, the rhythm of the little bee went all the way. They started playing the 41 -opened play, seeing the needs of their position, let Xu North or loaded a single player to play A, and others directly gambled a 4B play.
ENCE may be to avoid the load and Xu North, and has been attacking area B, the result is always frustrated.
After a few rounds, when he reacted, APEX began to become a 32 default play.
In the end, this picture one, they won the 16: 8 score.
Enter the nuclear crisis selected by ENCE.
This is a strong picture of ENCE, and the little bee is still under pressure.
The defense in the first half was not well operated, mainly because the game of the internal field was not played well, resulting in the number of people in the early stage of the number of people. In the end, it can only be played by returning to defense.
Xu Beifang and the load continued the state of Figure 1, and barely hit a score of 7: 8.
After entering the second half, the initial score was always in a state of killing.
It wasn't until a endgamous game that Xu Bei and the carrier won a 2V4, and ENCE's economic collapse, and they gradually opened the score.
In the end, the score was fixed on 16:12.
ENCE was also directly eliminated by them in the group stage.
At the end of this game, the live broadcast room of the Hamburg bag was full of barrage talking about the content of the game:
【thrilling! I thought it would take time. 】
[Mainly I can lose Heroic on the first day, I didn't expect it]
[Normally, just look at the CSGO game. You can understand everything in the world of CSGO.]
[BO1 on the first day, several explosive guys]
[Indeed, the next day everyone was normal, and basically confrontation was in line with speculation]
"One to say one, these two maps of bees are really beautiful." The waste brother Hamburg told the live broadcast room, "These two maps were not very good in the past, especially the death tour of Figure 1 In the paradise, the rhythm from beginning to end has always been in the control of small bees. "
"Figure 2 obviously can see that ENCE is more at ease, but the subsequent little bee's performance is still better. The north and potato and potato have stood out and made a few very eye -catching endgames. This can see their changes."
Not far from Berlin MAJOR, the problems that the little bee fans worried before are that the level of two unpopular maps is not very high. If you encounter the A team on Major, you will lose a map by default without watching it. This is difficult to do.
But now that they are in the amusement park, they are obviously more ease than before, and the burger bag feels very gratifying.
"There is a joy to develop games."
…
The little bee does not know how fans discuss in the live broadcast.
After the end of the game, Xu Beifang shouted excitedly, and the expression of others in the room was almost the same.
They rushed to Cologne with full fighting spirit. If they really took away one round of tour, it would be too attacked.
APEX is also extremely excited. Yesterday, I was tortured by Blamef to put the rhythm all messy. Today, I found the rhythm of the game and won a round.
Everyone cleaned up their emotions and came to ENCE's player in front of the battle room.
When shaking hands, ENce's mood is not very good.
Xu Bei brought them into their perspectives, but they can actually understand.
Originally preparing for the race, there was great expectations for subsequent games, and could even focus on the championship.
But half a month before the game, the game official suddenly gave you a knife, weakened your most powerful gameplay, and chopped it to the artery.
Who can withstand this?
Xiao Li watched Xu Beifang who came over, there was no more expression, but just said "good fight" as usual.
Their mood was completely affected by this update. Too much dependence on AUG, which caused them to feel uncomfortable after changing to M4. This feeling made them irritable and then affected the mentality of the game.
It's a negative cycle.
Now I am going directly, and my mood is worse.
However, Xiao Lizi also understood that today's game is not blamed.
Figures a small bee's selection of pictures, they can find some reasons to find.
But Figure 2's own picture, the second half was won by the little bee twins for several endgames, which should not be.
"Go back and adjust it. We can also be considered to be in the front line of Major." It has been eliminated and the little plum can only be happy now.
ENCE's idea of preparing for MAJOR in advance, the little bee definitely does not want to try.
After winning ENCE, they immediately returned to the hotel training room.
APEX began to watch Heroic's video.
Xu Beifang leaned on the sofa in the training room, holding his mobile phone to check the specific situation of the friends.
Yesterday's failure made their expression in a tight state, and there was no time to view the competition in Group A.
I don't know, it's really startled at first glance.
On the first day of Group A, a total of three 16:14 were played, and the main hand was thrilling.
The liquid was against South Korea's MVP, and it lost as soon as it was lost, which made people a little dumbfounded.
Xu Beifang took a look at the record and found that they were still disciplined. They lost too much to the round that should not be lost. The five people in the overall data were positive.
Faze and MOUZ are here.
The first day of Mouz was a new lineup of Navi. After the BP of the two sides, the final map was locked on the train.
The final score is fixed at 14: 16. Mouz lost to Navi in a very small gap.
Xu Beifang took a look at the record again and found that Mouz was still lost.
On Mouz, the four people recorded around 18, and King Han got 22 kills alone.
However, the side of Navi, S1MPLE focuses on a far -lead. A person cuts 32 kills, 10 more than Mouz's first first, a cliff -like lead.
Xu Beifang can actually understand, after all, the train is a big sniper picture.
The gap between the sniper of these two teams is indeed a bit large. S1MPLE is a T0 -level snipers on the professional arena today. What about De Rong?
It may only be regarded as T2 level, and even decreased.
The big cousin has done a good job in tactics, but the huge gap brought by the map characteristics is that he cannot erase.
Ropz has not played due to this game, and there is really nothing to say.
If Faze is here, the first day is also 16:14.
Niko opened the firepower on the first day and played 1.4 Rating. In this game, he played a four -kill in the arch, letting the world know what the real arch king is.
However, in the second round of BO3, Faze showed the world a wave of Wanma returning to the shed. Five people were all invisible. After the game, the data was not even green, so that the Faze fans said that "this can be said" One happy? ".
Today, this galaxy battleship is always like this, giving people hope and despair.
In the third day of the game, his two friends will officially play against each other.
Because in the loser group, a team will definitely go between Mouz and Faze.
Xu Beifang wanted to fight with them, but sometimes the game was always the case, not what you could meet.
But the fate of some teams is very clever.
In the upper half of Group B, Black Panther once again faced Team A again.
This game is also the most interesting game the next day.
Because of the last match, the Black Panther Bo1 and BO3 cyclically hit Team A. The audience looked forward to whether the Black Panther could turn over the A team for the third time.
As a result, Team A seemed to say to you: "It's just a small mistake last time."
In this BO3 confrontation, they easily killed the Black Panther with a large score of 16: 2 and 16: 7, respectively.
The BO3 process did not even be two hours.
Xu Bei, who had read the entire process at a 4x speed, could only lamented the horror.
Team A's pressure surrounds their hearts again, but they do not have to control the problem of Team A for the time being.
Because he is in the loser group, if you want to play against Team A in the future, at least you have to kill the loser group.
And the opponent of the loser group on the third day-
It is the Black Panther!
…
I finally wrote it, and I was a little bit scribbled. I got up and changed it ...
