CSGO professional player

Chapter 322 G2’s darkest moment

After qualifying for the group, victory in subsequent games became a matter of course.

On the fourth day, we played against ENCE.

Although in Figure [-], in the lost city in the desert, several gun men from ENCE took Wang Che and others by surprise.

But fortunately, after making timely adjustments, Heroic regained the rhythm of the game in the death amusement park in Figure [-] and returned with a big score.

Then he won the strong map Nuclear Crisis and easily finished the match between one and two.

Facing Astralis on the fifth day, there was no doubt about the outcome of the game.

The former Dynasty A team has now been reduced to the point where it needs Bubzkji, a water cooler player who has been sitting on the water cooler for a year, to support the overall situation.

Xyp9x is as soft as ever.

gla1ve's condition is also very sluggish.

In just one year, Team A first lost Device, and now they also lost Dupreeh and Magisk.

Looking at this disappointing score, gla1ve only felt infinite pain and unwillingness in his heart.

After being defeated by Heroic 2:0, Team A's EPL journey came to an end.

In five games, they only won against BNB, and the rest were all miserable losses without exception.

After being beaten 2:1 by Little Bee, the Green Dragon was forced to take a flight back to their hometown.

Heroic won all five matches, ranked first in the group, and advanced to the quarterfinals of the knockout round.

Little Bee and ENCE advanced to the top twelve.

Wang Che's performance was stable, with a rating of above 1.2 in all five games.

There were also many wonderful shots.

These materials are usually released by the UP master editors of major websites as soon as possible.

On the contrary, on Wang Che's own account, there are very few games and videos he played.

But it doesn't matter.

Huaguo fans follow the account just to watch the live broadcast reminder.

On the day they successfully advanced to the quarterfinals, before leaving the competition venue, cadiaN hugged Sister Lian Na and graciously gave all the team members three days off.

stavn and others are happy.

Sister Lina is also happy.

Back at the hotel, Wang Che felt that it was time to reward himself.

Just open the live broadcast software and click the start button of the anchor assistant.

Various gifts and bullet screens rolled out one after another.

[Wuhu, look what I found, a wild Clear! 】

[We were promised to teach us how to throw cigarettes, but the POV of playing with the machine is out...]

[Congratulations to Heroic for successfully advancing. 】

[Coming to the live broadcast just after being promoted, he is worthy of being Heroic’s number one model worker. 】

……

Unlike the live broadcast rooms of other CSGO anchors, there are not many people in Wang Che's live broadcast room who like to set the pace.

Maybe he came here after venting his anger in other rooms.

There are mostly barrage blessings and some jokes.

But this is all innocuous, and the overall situation is stable and improving.

Wang Che is keen on doing live broadcasts, and his favorite thing is interacting with barrages.

"Thank you for your blessings. After today's game, cadiaN said to rest for a few days. The next game will be in half a month, so I can still play around here."

"Next time I'll bring cadiaN to play with me. No problem. I'll teach him Chinese but he won't, so I'll let you teach me."

"Why don't you learn?"

"He always felt that what I taught was not quite right."

"You want the team manager to come too? Want to see her?"

"No problem, this is not easy, I will do it next time."

"Are you playing with a machine and doing a POV? Wuhu, it's Chinese New Year today, so I'm here to take a look, and I can also learn a bit."

【study?You are so good at joking...]

【Definitely next time?Anchor, please explain to me what it means to be sure next time? 】

[Come on, Clear, I want to see you play Wei Lan. Have you passed the C side? 】

[If you teach cadiaN Chinese, I’m afraid you’ll get into trouble. 】

Watching the barrages passing by on the screen, Wang Che suppressed the laughter in his heart.

Open the PILIPILI website skillfully, and then find the personal page for playing the machine.

Then he saw the video recently posted by Play Machine.

"Hiss... this."

"The debut is the peak, China hopes Clear's Overpass POV analysis..."

"Oh my god, it's actually mine, look at which scene it is."

"It was good to play Navi in ​​the IEM Cologne finals. I remember I was lucky and my performance was okay."

[Hand-torn Navi, Rating 1.5+, is this just okay? 】

[Low EQ: The opponent is not strong enough.High emotional intelligence: I am lucky...]

[Nima, it’s too Versailles, this is okay, it’s really okay.But I like it and will have more in the future. 】

[I won’t watch POVs that are not Clear. Tell me, I loved it! 】

Seeing the barrage, Wang Che laughed again and again.

Come more, the anchor likes to watch these.

After clicking on the video, Wang Che and his water friends began to watch the analysis of the machine.

While chatting, I also didn’t forget to add some things that were not mentioned in the video.

Less than half an hour after the broadcast started, the popularity of the live broadcast room had already reached a rather terrifying number.

You know, it was around 1 o'clock in the middle of the night in China.

As there are more and more friends, the barrage speed has become faster and faster.

Water friends continue to ask to continue watching the DEMO.

Wang Che felt helpless as he watched the barrage blowing on him and making him blush more and more.

After watching the POV, I specially found a demo of Niko to explain it to everyone.

"Why don't you watch ZywOo? ZywOo is just a clueless person."

"Niko's playing style is more universal and easier to learn. If you can't learn how to play, you can at least learn how to play."

"This preview is pleasing to the eye."

"And to be honest, the one I watched the most before was Niko's No.1 claim, and I really learned a lot."

[I cried to death, the anchor really wants to teach everyone. 】

[The best preview player in the world, just kidding you. 】

[The gun is too strong, I can’t learn...]

[Niko is in really good shape this year, and I don’t know if he can win a championship for fun. 】

[G2 is in Group B, and you can watch Niko play tomorrow, hehehe...]

……

On August 8, the EPL Group B group stage kicked off.

Six teams, G2, OG, forZe, Complexity, VP, and a second-tier team from the Czech Republic, SINNERS Esports.

The name SINNERS may be unfamiliar, but the name of Oskar, the sniper in the team, is familiar.

As a veteran who has stood in the first-line arena since the CS period.

When he lacked competitiveness, his choice was to return to his hometown and help his native team become famous internationally.

Unlike Group A, which is full of strong teams, Group B has only a handful of strong teams.

At least on paper, it’s clear who is strong and who is weak.

Needless to say, G2, everyone thought it was just qualifying, so there should be no problem for them.

The question is whether I can get first place in the group.

But the development of things often exceeds everyone's expectations.

There are three games on the first day of Group B. In the first game, G2 plays against SINNERS.

1:2 upset.

Even though the Bosnia and Herzegovina brothers have a great team, they are no match for three teammates with negative records.

Fans are still calm at this time.

[The offseason has just ended. I feel no better when I come back from the vacation. That’s normal. 】

The next day, G2 lost to OG again with 0:2.

This game was even worse than the last one, going from three losses to four.

A-God AMANEK and Jackz both got 15 kills on double maps.

Only Niko in the team has a positive KD, and his rating is 1.

Fans are still looking for reasons for their idols.

[Don’t panic, it’s just a technical adjustment. 】【OG was too fierce today, I can’t blame Niko. 】

Then on the third day, G2 played against COL, and was forced to chase two, losing 1:2.

Defeated by the remnant COL with the famous "Job-seeker" NaToSaphiX, all G2 fans fell into the darkest moment.

[K, the team is in danger!reply ASAP! 】

[What was the name of the last sniper as good as Armagnac? 】

[Niko can even let one chase two after a bad game. Niko kills like crazy but is let one chase two. We all have a bright future. 】

[May heaven be free of yachts and sexy models. 】

[Niko spent three days in jail]

Faced with the upset of the pre-match favorites, various forums and platforms were surprised and at the same time, they did not forget to rush a wave of traffic.

Soon, an article quietly appeared on HLTV.

"G2 is not G yet! There is still a possibility of Group B's follow-up games."

In the article, the qualifying situation of Group B is analyzed in a simple and in-depth manner from various extremely tricky angles.

We even used probability to calculate the probability that all other teams except OG would lose.

After a detailed analysis of several situations that G2 fans are looking forward to, we finally draw a conclusion.

As long as G2 goes all out to win the remaining two BO3 games, it will have a chance to qualify.

In general, it seems clear, but in reality life and death are unpredictable.

Under the article, all kinds of cynicism emerged in endlessly.

[Why does G2 start counting points like the national football team? 】

This looks like a message from a Chinese fan...

[The scripts have been written for five games, the opening game, the key battle, the life and death battle, the honor battle, the train station...]

[If G2 doesn’t lose, it can actually win. 】

[Is the probability [-]%? 】

[How dare you say that there is still a possibility of qualifying?Watch if I lose to you in the next game too! 】

No matter how deep your love is, how hard you scold me now.

On the fourth day of the game, G2 did not disappoint fans.

0:2 loss to forZe.

But the "surprise" that G2 gave fans was not over yet. On the last day, they lost to VP again 1:2.

In the end, Group B OG finished No. 5 in the group with 0 wins and 1 losses.

forZe and Col follow closely behind.

Another popular team, VP, was also eliminated.

At this point, all Group B games are over.

G2, the favorite before the game, bid farewell to EPL0 with 5 wins and 14 losses.

……

At dinner time on the 27th, Wang Che, who had finished training, accidentally ran into Niko, who was eating with his brother in the restaurant.

Surprisingly, Niko didn't have much frustration on his face after losing the game.

He seems to have accepted it all.

Or I'm used to it.

When he saw Wang Che, he even smiled and took the initiative to say hello.

"Hey brother, why are you alone? Come and join us."

Wang Che sat next to Niko with a plate. He didn't know what to say for a moment. He hesitated for a while and then said: "I watched the game. It's really a pity."

In five games, Niko's performance was very stable and he was always the best.

Without him, G2 would only lose worse.

But he tried his best, but still couldn't pull G2 out of the quagmire.

"No need to comfort me, I'm fine." Niko shrugged and laughed at himself. "Just in time, we can prepare for Blast and Stockholm in advance."

"Haha, we have too much time." huNter on the side couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.

If it were other players, Wang Che might have laughed along with this joke and passed it by.

But facing Niko, there was always a bitter feeling in his mouth.

The reason is simple. What I said to the water friends during the live broadcast are all true.

Why did he choose to play Niko instead of himself in the demo for water friends? The reason is very simple. Wang Che thinks he is very strong.

It can even be said without politeness that Niko was his idol.

Watching him play and become a professional player, his idol gradually became his goal.

In the end, he finally became an opponent and successfully defeated him, more than once. .

And when he started to win the championship, he was still dragged down by the team and hesitated.

It's really sad.

Wang Che could only sigh slightly: "I believe you will get better."

"Of course it will... Besides, it seems that you are more uncomfortable than me." Niko grinned.

"In a game, it's not normal to win and lose. Besides, the opponent is better and better than us. This is something we can't help."

"That's right. As players, all we have to do is stay in shape and be ready to play at any time." huNter said. "You have to work hard, Clear. The results you have achieved now can already make us all feel envious."

"The Grand Slam is just around the corner. I believe you and Heroic can also make your dream come true."

……

At the end of August, G8 left Malta early.

When Wang Che and others started training day and night in the hotel.

Group C kicks off.

Mouz, Navi, Faze, Fnatic, BIG, EG.

Six first-tier teams played in a round-robin match, and every game was exciting.

In the end, Navi achieved four wins and one loss, taking first place in the group, followed by Mouz and Fnatic with 3 wins and 2 losses each.

The eldest cousin karrigan's ambition was once again aborted. After winning 2 games, it took a turn for the worse, losing three times in a row and being eliminated.

There was no suspense in the final Group D match.

Red Star, Liquid, and NIP successfully advanced.

Because the EPL schedule was criticized before for being too long and cumbersome, the organizer ESL shortened the competition schedule this time.

However, their approach is not to arrange the games more intensively, but to reduce the players' rest time.

After the group stage, there was only one day's rest, and the knockout rounds began immediately.

The familiar Malta hotel lobby transformed into a competition hall once again appeared in front of audiences around the world.

Another two days later.

All the first knockout rounds have been played.

And when they saw their next opponent, Wang Che, cadiaN and others were stunned.

forZe……

Maybe it's because he's in excellent condition, or maybe he's just lucky.

The opponent they encountered in the first round of the knockout round was Liquid, a team that was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and was in a Schrödinger state before each game.

The forZe players seized the opportunity.

After two overtime games, they defeated Liquid with a score of 2:1.

Advance to the EPL quarterfinals.

This is already forZe's best result in a top-level event.

cadiaN immediately opened the video website and clicked on the search bar: "Holy shit, Xizt, go find this team's demo."

It's embarrassing to say that when Heroic was playing in the promotion rounds of other groups, he was always studying teams like Navi, Faze, and Little Bee.

There was no preparation for forZe's tactics and responses at all.

It wasn't that he didn't want to be prepared, it was that he never thought that his opponent would be them.

In less than a day, what can be prepared is very limited.

After briefly familiarizing themselves with the opponent's tactics and positioning, it was already getting late, and cadiaN could only end the training in a hurry.

But being unprepared doesn’t mean Heroic doesn’t have confidence.

On the contrary, Xizt is complacent.

"There is no doubt that forZe is in great shape this time around."

"But we don't have to put too much pressure on us. We can just throw championship baggage directly into the trash can."

"We don't need to use anything to prove our strength. The less psychological pressure the game has, the better it will be."

"Tomorrow, we will definitely win the game."

"Heroic, come on!"
