CS: Demon King C, you said I was a genius?

"Wow, cousin! That movement was awesome!"

Su Zhe excitedly gave his cousin a high five.

In the previous round, when entering the 3V3 endgame, the cousin first blocked Wang Defa, who was sneaking in through the iron gate, in the pipe groove.

Then, he took a fake step down into the pipe and secretly hid behind the cover of the fake pipe, which made both Xiao Li and IM on the outside think that G2 had left the inside empty.

In NAVI's understanding, even if the inner field is not left open, the CTs who are defending the inner field should still protect the terrorists' room to facilitate subsequent counter-attacks.

He hid in the fake pipe and easily stole two shots from behind.

My cousin, leveraging his tournament experience, successfully sent NAVI into the economic zone.

After giving Su Zhe a high-five, he remained silent, unlike the warm red figure in Figure 1.

In a tense and exciting competition, only good performance and statistics can give people enough confidence.

My cousin laughed and said, "I knew he would come looking for trouble on the inside. They really think I'm an easy target."

Having gained the upper hand, the G2 players relaxed.

Su Zhe also breathed a sigh of relief. It felt so good to have teammates supporting you; it saved him from having to be on edge all the time.

The cheers from the audience came one after another.

The pressure was once again on NAVI. They had indeed made a lot of pre-match preparations for the Nuclear Crisis map, but they never expected such a start.

Because G2 relies entirely on individual skill to break through the situation, their targeted tactics seem like a joke.

NAVI's initial offensive strategy was to score points around the outside of the court.

The team's early game outside the arena was clearly very successful, but in the mid-game, G2 started to dominate from all sides, ruthlessly tearing apart their teamwork.

“Why don’t we try looking for opportunities inside the field?” JL suggested.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad both shook their heads after hearing this.

Little Li said, "Didn't you notice? The other side has been deliberately defending our inner area. We haven't seen anyone in the outer area for several waves. At most, they've sent the kid's AWP to the outer area to look for opportunities."

Little Li's meaning was self-evident: if they turned around and went back to attacking the inner court or the iron plate, they might not have been able to develop so smoothly in the early stages.

Brad paced behind him and said, "Yes, your problem now is that you lose in the mid-to-late game endgame, but your opening outside play is fine."

At this moment, they are just like G2 in Map 1. Anubis could clearly attack the B bomb site, but he just can't win the endgame and can't defend the bomb.

Brad continued, "Okay, this round, don't waste time on the outer perimeter. Let's get straight to the point. After you've cleared the first line of smoke on the outer perimeter, go straight down to K1 and into the underground."

"Someone will go to the control room first to check the situation of the metal plate on the other side. If we can win the gunfight, we'll go straight to B and plant the bomb. If the pressure is too great, we'll go up the pipe and attack the inside of the site as soon as possible."

Brad was getting a little anxious as he couldn't gain an advantage on his chosen map, so he broke down his decisions and fed them to his teammates.

The one-minute timeout ended quickly and the game continued.

NAVI needed to build up their economy in this round, so they stayed at home to refine their tactics while continuing to cool down G2's performance. They then grouped up and went to feed kills when the round was about to end.

Score 5-2
They've entered another crucial long-range rifle round. If NAVI loses this round, G2 will completely widen the gap between them in the first half.

As the countdown ended, Su Zhe, carrying the AK he had captured in the previous round, headed straight for the iron plate.

"A smoke bomb has been fired outside!" Niko's voice came through the headset.

Niko knew that NAVI would likely target him on the Nuka map, so he was quite cautious with his positioning in the first few rounds.

Either defend against K1, or set up a back point outside the police's base; at least leave yourself a way out.

He hadn't even been to the warehouse much, for fear of being caught out of nowhere and having his timing flagged.

So Niko has now moved directly to the small blue box outside the main entrance to observe the outside situation.

"Do you need me to repair the underground?" Su Zhe asked while peeking the connection.

"Hmm," he hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Let's go check underground. Kid, you go and reinforce the metal plate with your sniper rifle."

The reason for the hesitation is that the structure of the nuclear crisis map is too complex, and there are too many offensive tactics that can be implemented.

Some viewers may think that the professional players made poor decisions. They had already thrown two or three smoke grenades at the start of the game, but they stayed in the outer area and didn't go down to K1. Isn't that a complete waste?

But who knows if the terrorists' plan is to lure the CTs underground, and then suddenly launch a speed boost by attacking from the inside or from the front gate to the inside?

Once Su Zhe saw that the child was almost in place, he turned around and went down to the ground.

Information about the outside area had been lost for a long time, and it was unknown where the bandits had gotten to. Su Zhe did not go directly into the underground interior, but stood at the entrance of the iron plate and observed back and forth.

"Nothing underground"

Su Zhe observed for a few seconds and was just about to report the information in TS voice when he suddenly saw the bandits appear in the control room.

He immediately turned around and went into the metal plate cover, adjusted his aim, and then took a large step back to aim at Peek.

"Da da da~"

Arrow used an AK-47 to headshot and kill iM.

After securing the kill, Su Zhe quickly retreated to a safe position to prevent anyone from suddenly appearing at the dead or alive gates to finish off the attackers.

After a few seconds, the bandits seemed to have no immediate interest in the underground area.

"They're ganking the base!" the fallen iM hurriedly shouted in the team voice chat.

After seeing the kill notification, Little Li already knew what was going on.

For other teams, Little Li might be worried that the opponent would leave the metal plate unused to cover the ground, but G2...

He had faced G2 countless times and knew Breath's command style by heart. He knew that when Breath was patching the ground with iron plates, he would definitely have someone patch the iron plates.

Unless the opposing team cleared the information about the terrorist hall in advance, and the terrorist hall was only confirmed by JL as the default, G2 took the initiative to use the iron gate's defensive smoke and did not actively counter-clear the terrorist hall.

So Little Li said, "Let's go, go straight up the pipes into the inner area. JL, you can find your own opportunity in the gangster room."

"b1t, start moving your outer area towards the main entrance."

"Arrow easily finished off IM, his touch is still on fire! NAVI is afraid to keep opening the gate, are they choosing to go up the pipe and attack the inside in the second round?"

"This is!" The player suddenly realized that this tactic looked very familiar. "This is the Supernip tactic! Is this tactic with a 0% win rate about to make a comeback?"

[It's coming! It's coming! The big one is coming!]

[SuperNip? Super funny, right?]

Is this long-lost tactic about to make a comeback?

Haha, I don't know why, but I've already started laughing.

He was too busy playing with the machine to check the live stream chat, so he focused on explaining the content.

“b1t’s outside movement is crucial. If he dies, the overall tactical flow will be disrupted.”

"Niko's return to the warehouse to gather information about the outside is a good move. G2's information is still quite compressed. Neither the terrorist hall nor the underground K1K2 has map control."

"But! Niko lost his composure and turned to look at the left side of the red box, only to be instantly killed by the B1T that came out from the right! That timing! It was fatal!"

"One close spot on the outside!" Niko, who had just been eliminated, didn't have time to feel regret and immediately reported the information to his teammates.

There were already few people inside, so those who used to watch the iron gate from the main entrance could only crouch in a corner to watch the outside.

b1t realized there might be someone at the main entrance, but he didn't expect the other party to be so sneaky. He missed his target and was immediately knocked down by the breathing straight frame.

After getting the kill, I breathed a sigh of relief, but then I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the iron gate.

The significant loss of map control had made it impossible for him to determine NAVI's offensive intentions.

Is the plan to continue attacking underground in the second round, or to prepare for a pincer attack on the inner field?
The cousin on the yellow roof didn't dare look at the iron plate, fearing that someone from the yellow roof would come out and grab him from behind.

Even breathing knew this, so the second thing he could do was turn around and go find the bandits at the iron gate to fight them again.

Unfortunately, he doesn't usually have time to practice his individual skills. He was fine when he had the advantage of a gun position, but now that he's been locked on, he's actively pulling out to face the gun head-on, and the result is obvious.

His silhouette had just appeared, and before he could even locate himself, his screen suddenly went black.

"Da da da~"

JL used an AK-47 to headshot Hooxi.

The iron gate was out of control, and my cousin couldn't care less about anything else. He turned his head to look at the iron gate, but as he stepped over it, he was suddenly hooked by the bandits coming up from the pipe.

He immediately fired when the other person lost their footing, and the other person suddenly pulled back into position. This action gave JL, who had just retreated behind the iron gate, another opportunity.

It was pulled out horizontally again.

"Da da da~"

JL used an AK-47 to headshot and kill huNter.

"The pipe bandits are coming up!"

Only now has NAVI's true intentions been revealed!

While the police were breathing and firing shots at the main entrance, the child who had been patching the iron plate had already started firefighting. At this moment, he had just climbed up the stairs to the third floor of the police station.

But soon, a fire began to spread at the spot beneath his feet.

Seeing the fire, the child steeled himself and stepped on the flames to escape.

In the first two rounds, he secured the kill by stepping on the enemy's red fire boxes while taking down two opponents with his sniper rifle outside the arena. But this time, he didn't receive the Brave One reward.

Wang Defa's AK was already set up on the third floor. At the same time, the child saw the three bandits who had already opened fire, and with a flick of his wrist, he missed.

"Da da da~"

w0nderful killed m0NESY with an AK-47

"Wow! That shot missed! Is this just a kid who can hit high-difficulty shots? Could it be that NAVI's Supernip tactic is about to succeed?!"

"Are we about to witness history?!"

The 1v3 endgame provided Su Zhe with an enormous stage to perform on.

However, this is understandable, since the free agent position is the easiest to break up in a game.

Su Zhe did not launch a counterattack from the third floor or the link to the terrorist hall. Before the NAVI was even activated, he had already begun pushing deeper underground, and had just reached the location of the pipe.

The approximate locations of the three people inside have been determined, but his position is equally awkward. He is unsure whether the other party knows his location, nor whether the other party has set up a gun at the pipe entrance.

In CS:GO, there's a mechanism where there's no difference between being on a ladder and running and shooting; the bullet trajectory is still random. If someone is on a ladder, they're basically going to die as soon as they peek out.

But by this time, the sound of planting the bomb could be heard from the bomb site, and now was the easiest time to seize the timing.

Whether they go around the main gate from K1 or go back to the iron plate, it will be a long detour. Although it is slightly safer, it will give NAVI enough time to prepare.

So Su Zhe gritted his teeth and climbed up directly from the pipe opening.

As soon as he peeked out, he saw the bandits with their backs turned setting up a barrier on the third floor.

NAVI probably didn't expect that Su Zhe, the only survivor, would take such a dangerous position.

Wang Defa even went to the police station's outer perimeter, preparing to circle around to the third floor and catch a wave of timings.

Upon seeing his back, Su Zhe did not immediately fire his gun. Instead, he took a large step and climbed up from inside the pipe.

JL, who was looking up from the third floor, turned around immediately upon hearing footsteps behind him, but it was too late; Su Zhe had already landed steadily on the ground.

"Da da~"

Arrow used an AK-47 to headshot and kill JL.

After getting the kill, Su Zhe was still unsure of the opponent's exact location, so he immediately moved close to the yellow house cover to check its location.

Just as he was wondering if anyone was at the main entrance, he suddenly realized that NAVI hadn't dropped the bomb directly.

This means the opponent abandoned planting the bomb and chose to pounce on him first!

Thinking of this, Su Zhe immediately turned his head to look at the area on his left.

really!

Of course, when I turned around, I saw the bandit's figure being pulled out. It seemed that he had first moved silently to get close before choosing to pull out the bandit.

Seeing the opponent's figure, which was almost blurry and moving at full speed, Su Zhe did not use the crosshair to follow it, but instead made a prediction and fired.

"Da da da~"

Arrow kills Aleksib with an AK-47 headshot

Leonardo DiCaprio just happened to run headfirst into his bullet!
After getting the kill, Su Zhe looked towards the main gate again, but still didn't see the bandit who was supposed to finish him off.

He was certain that NAVI wouldn't make such a basic mistake as overlapping gun racks in such a critical situation; the only remaining player was either in the terrorist building or outside the main entrance.

However, now that C4 has fallen, he is not in a hurry. The more he does, the more mistakes he will make. He chooses to simply shrink into the groove of the pipe and wait for the right moment to act.

"Arrow's ability to time his shots and his marksmanship helped him secure this 1v1 situation!"

"It all depends on how Wang Defa handles it. He still chose to turn around and return to the main entrance. Oh! Wang Defa guessed Arrow's location! In such a short time, he's unlikely to have any other options!"

Su Zhe crouched in the pipe groove, constantly swaying his body and turning his view left and right to avoid being caught.

With only a dozen seconds left in the round, he figured the other side should be about to make their move.

"Jingbu picked up the grenade and ran underground?"

Su Zhe immediately peeked out in a small space to check if Lei Bao was still there, but he ran right into Wang Defa!
"Da da da~"

The other side fired first, but did not hit Su Zhe's head immediately. For Wang Defa, this was also a sudden situation.

Su Zhe had time to retreat to cover and catch his breath, but he only had about 20 drops of health left!
Do you believe in your big pull, or do you believe you can catch the head with your straight cross?

Su Zhe quickly made a judgment in his mind, and with the head line in place, he immediately pulled out his gun horizontally.

The crosshair was perfectly aligned with the opponent's head.

"Da da da~"

Arrow kills w47nderful with an AK-0 headshot

"NiCE!! Arrow! You saved the world again!!"

"You have such a big heart!"

The moment the endgame was completed, cheers from my teammates came through my headphones!
Su Zhe also shouted a few times.

His lead in the score meant he wasn't under as much pressure, allowing him to focus on managing the endgame.

However, being able to achieve a triple kill again in the end, and even get a quad kill in the round, is still very satisfying.

The score has now reached 6-2.

The G2 players cheered wildly, their morale soaring to its peak.

On the other side, the atmosphere within the NAVI team was eerily quiet. They had tried too many tactics, and now the opponent's individual skill had once again brought them to the brink of defeat.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

As the commander, Xiao Li didn't know what to say to encourage his teammates. Their morale deflated like a punctured balloon.

Facing a G2 team with full firepower and everyone capable of explosive plays, he no longer had a tactical approach that could guarantee a 100% win rate.

In the second half of the game, G2 continued to maintain their scoring rhythm.

Leonardo DiCaprio subsequently abandoned his outside attacks and tried to find a breakthrough in the inside and on the steel plate, but he did not achieve any substantial results.

At the end of the first half, the score was 9-3!

During the halftime break, Wanji took the opportunity to chat freely in the live stream.

"A six-point difference! NAVI doesn't have many chances left. If they lose the pistol round in the second half, they'll basically have no chance left."

"Actually, NAVI's early game rhythm was quite good, and their outfield play was also very impressive, but there was nothing we could do! Nicholas was as slick as a greased dough stick, giving them absolutely no chance!"

"When it came down to individual skill, they couldn't compete. It just goes to show how incredibly strong G2 is!"

[NAVI has been completely overwhelmed by their strength]

[It's clear they've lost their nerve; their resilience has been completely broken.]

Even in the most disadvantageous situations, G2 always has someone who can step up; NAVI has been completely defeated by sheer numbers.

[Haha! If you insist on using the Supernip tactic, losing that round basically means you have no hope.]

【.】

"Hey guys! You know what, NAVI's tactic just now was pretty successful! They cleared out everyone in the inner area in the mid-game."

"But there's no way! Three against one can't beat them! Xiao Zhe, are you trying to destroy NAVI?"

After a short break, the second half of the match resumed.

The situation seemed clear, but from the moment the G2 logo appeared on the screen, it was destined to leave the audience with a hint of suspense.

In the pistol round, use a breathing call to harass the inside area, then immediately accelerate and rush the metal plate as part of the offensive tactic.

The B1T, with its ironclad defense, turned into a bot when it was attacked by a white-armored enemy and was instantly melted by focused fire.

IM, who came over to cover from the outside, was also caught off guard by Su Zhe. After exchanging a few shots with the two, Su Zhe still had the upper hand.

In the 5v3 endgame, the attacking lineup that had entered the underground had successfully deployed. NAVI's counter-attacks were no longer effective, and they were repeatedly eliminated by G2's cross-team attacks.

After losing the pistol round, NAVI's three-minute pep talk in the first half instantly lost its effectiveness, and their morale plummeted once again.

The shouts inside the stadium were exhilarating, but they weren't for them.

The gap between the two sides widened again, to the point that NAVI had lost all hope of a comeback.

Today, G2 in picture two was so stable it was almost unbelievable.

Their hot hands and flawless teamwork left them completely bewildered, unable to find a way to turn the tide.

At the last moment, the stadium's roar once again lifted the dome.

As Su Zhe threw away all his guns, the score on the hundreds of square meters of LED screen was fixed.

13-5!

G2 has avenged their previous defeat and advanced to the IEM Dallas finals! (End of Chapter)
