CSGO E-sports Manager

On the official commentary stage of IEM Imperial City Station.

The game entered the settlement screen. Coke looked at the slightly silent members of Team A in the battle room, and his tone was not as relaxed as before the game, but became a little dignified.

"In Figure 5 Nuclear Crisis, GOD proved their strong strength, and their hearty wave of offense made it difficult for Team A to parry. They took the lead in the BO[-] game. Their performance is quite beautiful, we can't predict it. Will this state of affairs continue..."

This picture [-] is really a bit from fantasy to reality.

The level and state of Team A have been very good recently, which has filled up the expectations for them in the pre-match forum. Many people think that in this game, Team A, which is in full swing, will eventually compete with the first two games. Same, easy win and pick up the trophy.

The frequent good results actually concealed GOD's good performance to a certain extent. For a while, people somewhat forgot that GOD has been a phenomenon-level team in the past six months. Take the championship away.

This picture is like a crushing game, which makes the spectators realize what the reality is.

The proud tactics were disintegrated, the defensive mode was easily broken, and the default abilities were broken one by one.

This made many supporters of Team A despair, and the same score also reminded them of the ending of FG meeting Team A yesterday.

As VC's former youth training team, and later gradually the second team, Team A's growth is actually very slow, but their unique style of play and excellent tactical concepts have also deeply attracted a group of players who like "reasonable" games. them.

These players are full of expectations for them, cheering for them in the second-tier competition, and watching them step up to the top stage little by little.

But the departure of kennyS brought the whole team into an unspeakable trough. The newly joined players are very good, but the play system needs time to get used to. These fans can only wait patiently.

It is precisely because of the difficulty along the way, they will be very happy to watch Team A slowly get used to it and finally reach the finals of the IEM Imperial City. When they came to the last stop, the college entrance examination, they all looked forward to it.

But Tu Yi's defeat was like pouring cold water on them. It was like a child coming back from the first exam and telling himself that he had failed the exam.

They feel uncomfortable, but all they can do now is to cheer for Team A, hoping that they will perform well in the next "examination".

"Team A is now one map behind, and the pressure is on them. Map 5 is the town of Purgatory chosen by Team A." Taro Yuan looked relatively calm. It is normal to win or lose in e-sports, and now it is only the first place in BO[-]. Zhang map, the game is still early.

"Purgatory Town is the map that Team A is best at. In the last 100 games, their winning rate is 82%. We can have some expectations for this map of Team A."

During the short intermission, the ten players from both sides dealt with their physical problems, adjusted their mentality, and put their minds into the game again.

Picture [-] is the purgatory town chosen by Team A. They start as the offensive team.

"Everyone play hard, focus on map 3, win this map, we will just start from scratch with a BO1." gla[-]ve clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and then began to twist the rope.

Seeing everyone's expressions recover, gla1ve opened his mouth to arrange pistol round tactics: "Get two sets of props, Xiaoju will send out a P250, buy another cigarette and flash, we will play a wave of A1 and the synchronization of the second floor."

Zaiwu picked up a handful of P250 thrown by Xiaoju. The failure in Figure [-] made him feel unwilling, and now he is eager to gain some advantages.

"Okay, let's look at the pistol round. CT played a 3B start, and took the initiative to come out in the B area to get information. He didn't see anyone in the banana road. Bthe1 listened to the sound in A1 to identify the position, and heard the undisguised footsteps in the middle. He just quietly hid in the boiler room, but isn’t he afraid of people coming from the second floor?” Coke asked himself and answered, “The spiral staircase on the A2 floor is a RAS with a CZ, and there are people on the back to help.”

"Bthe1 knocked one at a close point, can you still fight? Loading the gun successfully. Two smokes exploded, and the load led the team directly to A1 and rushed into the bunker. Now the area A is empty." Taro Yuan The voice changed, "But no one knows, there is a CZ on the spiral ladder, what does Xiaoju say?"

"Xiaoju was instantly killed when they met. CZ's role in the pistol round is too exaggerated."

The thunder bag was successfully put down, but there is still one person on the spiral ladder, and the remaining three people in team A are a bit difficult to operate.

gla1ve took the initiative to touch from the A2 floor, wanting to seize a chance to destroy RAS.

But the moment RAS came out, it was taken away by gla1ve in one shuttle.

For a while, only Broky and Zaiwu were left with cross-gun positions at the bunkers and small pits.

But what they faced was a 2v4 endgame. Broky was not Ah Dian after all, and he couldn't play that kind of exaggerated role in Dakeng. He was directly shot and killed by RAS on the A2 floor.

Even if Zaiwu got a kill, he was also locked at the bag point. After the formation spread out, he had nothing to do.

……

"It's a pity, let them put down the thunder bag." RAS's tone was rather shameless.

The blue horse knight smiled: "I know you played well, so it's fine to play beautifully."

"Hey!" RAS frowned, "It's comfortable, I just want you to praise me!"

The blue horse rider sighed: "It's a pity you don't go to GG."

"Give me an idea, old man, or I'll send you to GG after this game." Bthe1 joked.

RAS put away his smile, looked at the tactical paper in front of the keyboard, and said: "This round is actually not very easy to refer to. After putting down the mine bag, they have several modes of play. They are forced to buy AK or short guns with a lot of props. , defend step by step, just use props to give pressure."

While buying firearms, the Blue Horse Knight said with emotion: "Speaking of which, Team A's tactical system is really complicated. It is more troublesome than studying AE. Not to mention the various tactical variants, we have to beware of their ability to fight the endgame."

GOD was once reduced to a second-tier team before, and finally became a dark horse in Katowice, but was defeated by VC in the final.At that time, apart from having the top player Blue Horse Knight, GOD was actually very poor in all other abilities.

Everyone can see the limitations of their lineup, and this situation continued until the youth training league led by Mengde, in which the two youth training teams of GOD emerged and were finally promoted to the home team.

If only this is the case, they may be able to become a first-line team, but they cannot become a phenomenal team like they are now.

Able to get strong quickly in just a few months, in addition to a lot of training.In addition, they abandoned the previous concepts and began to conduct a lot of research and targeting before the game. They began to systematically record the tactics and play systems of each team they encountered, and improved them through confrontation after game.

This kind of systematic information allows them to understand their opponents and present them in the game with a style similar to restraint.

In fact, they rarely played against Team A. The time was relatively short, but thanks to the fact that FG played against them a lot in the lower half of Group B, GOD didn't need to spend too much time on FG. The extra time they had It's all on Team A.

This is also an important reason why they can win so easily in Figure [-].

But a few days is still a bit too hasty. Their in-depth research can only be done on specific maps, such as the nuclear crisis in Figure [-], and this purgatory town.

In the second round, Team A chose to force the gun after putting down the mine bag.

Under the command of gla1ve, everyone in Team A used the best firearms available to their economy to the greatest extent. The only prop in the entire team was the smoke bomb on Broky's body.

The idea of ​​this round is also very obvious, it is directly a wave of holding a group to touch and make up guns.

gla1ve's thinking is very clear. Without props, they are not qualified to play control maps with GOD in the early stage.

So he abruptly waited for 40 seconds before starting his action.

First advance on the banana road, and after a brief trial with the other party, directly turn to the link to touch.

A wave of firefights in Area A ended in 3 for 3, and the final endgame was left to Broky and Gla1ve.

In this round, it was a position of traps and big pits, but Broky, who was hiding in the dead center, caught the timing of the opponent's search point, and came out to kill two people in a row, helping the team to regain a victory.

Qiangqi was overturned, GOD's economy exploded directly, and the average deposit was not even 2000, so he had to fight against Team A.

But on this map, all the members of team A seemed to be back home. The Banana Road control map ended, and a wave of clean attack from area B broke through God's defense.

In the fourth round, the semi-armored pistol saved by GOD did not help them make a comeback. With a simple pull, Team A won a partial 5v1 advantage, and it was even easier to win this point in the follow-up.

The score came to 3:1, and the game officially entered the first long gun round.

Under the command of gla1ve, they chose a quick wave to fly to the second floor.

GOD also made some special structures in this point, such as the straight spiral staircase in the double boiler room, and a person standing in the corridor of the A2 building.

The moment Coke saw the picture, his heart skipped a beat. In his opinion, Team A was about to post this targeted position.

But the discipline of Team A is still very strict.

At the first moment, Floor A2 didn't do anything, but gla1ve used props to cooperate with the electronic brother to control the middle lane.

With the help of Link Smoke and Stable Fire, Brother Electronics easily rushed into the middle, and boldly touched Link through the smoke.

Ah Dian realized that he had caught a great timing, and immediately started to move.

When gla1ve heard Brother Electronics' words, he came out from the middle, and the sound of footsteps attracted the blue horse knight in the boiler room.

Although the first kill was sent out, the double-frame in the boiler room was canceled by accident, and a wave of double-teaming from the A2 floor and the link directly made it impossible for everyone in GOD to deal with it.

After a round of firefights, facing a 2v4 return defense, the two CTs in Area B chose to save their guns.

Successive victories dilute the frustration of failure in Figure [-]. Coming to this familiar map, Team A gradually entered the game into their rhythm.

Although GOD scored a few points thanks to the beautiful endgame performances of the Blue Horse Knight and Brother P, the balance of victory is still tilting towards Team A.

The score came to 10:5 in the spiral, and Team A as the offensive team led GOD by 5 points.

This result can be said to boost morale, everyone has a smile on their faces, and they are looking forward to showing their ambitions in the next second half.

……

"There are too many offensive tricks." Bthe1 complained a little irritably. As the defensive side in the first half, they were basically led by gla1ve.

The initiative of the game is completely in the opponent's hands, and this feeling is not at all uncomfortable.

"There is a saying that the small town of team A can have such a high winning percentage."

"This tactic has changed back and forth, and my head is getting bigger."

"It can only be said that this winning rate is worthy of the name."

During the intermission, everyone in GOD was chatting briefly.

Feeling the communication of his teammates, RAS, known as the "old man", comforted his teammates: "Don't be pressured, the commander gla1ve played too much on the spot, and I was really weak on the defensive end. But after switching sides, we will be the active one.”

The commander of GOD smiled: "Perhaps Team A doesn't know it themselves. Their extremely regular defensive mode has been studied and understood by us."
Intermission ends and the two sides switch sides to enter the game.

"The pistol game started in the second half. In the first half, GOD was completely played by Team A tactically. They couldn't play their due strength at all."

"I don't know if they will bring us some surprises after switching sides."

Coke made an opening remark in the commentary booth as usual.

"The GOD of the pistol round chose 4 people to take the side lane and equipped with a set of props. Is this wave going to fly directly to the second floor?"

"Brother Electronics walked from A1 to the boiler room, and played a spring head in the VIP. He saw four people in the side passage!! The CT in area B went directly to A to defend one person."

"Hey!! The GOD army turned around and returned to the middle from the sewer. Is this going to go back to fight B?"

Taro gradually understood the thoughts of the GOD command from the perspective of God, and was a little frightened: "Is it so decisive? The three of them turned the point, leaving RAS alone to explode the bomb in the side channel. Caocheyan dropped it, and he directly Go to building A2 to take a step, Team A only left Xiaoju in Area B, and the rest returned to defense."

"This wave has been deceived and turned around!"

After the straw car smoke exploded, a net has been spread in area A.

But they didn't expect that soon there would be a voice calling for help from Xiaoju.

When they realized that the situation was wrong, the mine bag had already been placed in area B.

This back defense was very intense, but in the end Team A still failed to win, the gun position and information were lost, it was too passive.

After losing the pistol round and failing to score a few kills, Team A directly chose ECO.

10: 7.

The game entered the second half of the long gun round.

Team A's early map control went smoothly, and neither the A2 floor nor the Banana Road felt the pressure immediately.

At the second time, floor A2 gave up, and gla1ve left the smoke bomb to Xiaoju, and then made up defense to point A, turning the advantage after winning Banana Road into 4A.

But he never expected that the moment he took his position in Area A, there would be an exchange of fire in Area B.

It is said that there was an exchange of fire, but in fact Xiaoju was pursued unilaterally.

The blue horse rider seemed to really ride his beloved motorcycle, and came straight to Xiaoju without any search points.

Xiaoju was immediately whitened by the flashing light, and when she jumped up to take a look at Banana Road, she found that the opponent was not far away from her.

He wanted to run back to delay time, but was soon chased to death, and Area B fell again.

The fall of area B too quickly made the subsequent endgame unable to be effectively launched, so gla1ve chose to save the gun.

In the next round, Team A found that it had entered the rhythm of Figure [-] again, and GOD could always grasp the weak points of their defense.

When the score came to 11:13, Meng De called a timeout, calling out that the rhythm of "dynamic defense" might be studied by GOD, and they might have to change the defensive mode.

But at that time, everyone in Team A felt cold, and managed to win a point after changing their style of play, but GOD completed the economic operation early and crushed Team A as a whole.

In the end, Team A lost to GOD with a score of 12:16 on this own draft map.

Losing two maps in a row, the finals also came to the brink of danger.

The next picture three will be their last chance.

There is no way out... (End of this chapter)
