CS: A young talent from Peking University, you want me to play professionally?

After winning the pistol round, Team A clearly had a significant advantage in the situation.

For them, it can be said that they played this pistol round with great discipline and patience. It was precisely because of their disciplined tactical cooperation and the fact that they did not give the defending side many opportunities from beginning to end that they were able to gain the advantage after winning the pistol round so smoothly.

"Let's keep going to top A University."

In the second round, Team A chose to continue to fight for control of key positions on the map. On this map, the terrorists, with their advantage in firearms, could generally gain information by pushing forward with relatively low risk.

Because after they push forward against A, if the defenders want to get information to scout or provide items, the attackers can make an accurate judgment based on the situation of the items on the field and the positioning of the players, and then make a calm analysis and a choice for offensive strategy.

So, NA has actually made a sufficiently good response.

They had already anticipated that after gaining an advantage in the pistol round, the terrorists would make some bolder pushes in this round, since the opposing team had an advantage in weapons and items. Therefore, considering this, both Somebody and Lin Yu on Team A chose to push A main, meaning their thinking was actually aligned.

Moreover, from the perspective of the situation, if both sides choose to push forward at the same time, it is definitely not a bad thing for NA, who lost the pistol round.

After all, their firearms and equipment are at a disadvantage. If they can shorten the distance of the firefight, their short guns have a chance to play an advantage, take out the bandits' long guns, and create opportunities to kill in the early stages of the game, thus creating a numerical advantage.

Therefore, the initial choices made by both sides clearly showed that this side had the upper hand. If Team A were to give them a very close-range gunfight opportunity, Team NA would actually be very happy to see it happen.

"Be ready to double-grenade in B site at any time to prevent the enemy from speeding up their rush. They didn't move immediately, probably because they wanted to make a default move. Before we get accurate information, we need to guard both A and B sites against the enemy's speed-up rush."

Although Li Mo did not intend to make any specific detailed commands throughout the training match, he still provided the team with overall tactical arrangements and commands, because such thinking would not affect the team's decision-making during the game.

So for them, in the early stages of the game, they are forced to defend many conventional positions due to the limited availability of firearms and items. If they were to give up these positions, it would be very difficult for them to retake them without long guns and enough items.

Moreover, as a CT, if the opposing team speeds up their rush, their double grenades will immediately put immense pressure and a sense of oppression on the attacking side. Because once they speed up, especially if they want to break through to the bomb site, these two grenades will almost certainly result in a kill.

In fact, Team A showed less patience in this rifle round than in the pistol round. During the initial default phase, lacking sufficient information, they became somewhat anxious as time ran out. The players on A main didn't choose to push too far forward, which, while a safer strategy from a strategic perspective, also meant they couldn't secure more advantageous positions.

So in the final decision phase, with only about 25 seconds left, Team A still chose to speed up their attack on point B.

It's clear from the map that you can't really say Team A made a mistake in this round, because Team A only had two defenders at point B.

If Team A sends all 5 players to break through to bomb site B at this point, they will have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers.

However, Li Mo's command played a crucial role at this moment, because he immediately ordered the two defenders at point B to put up grenades. So when they heard footsteps and saw the equipment, confirming that Team A would choose to accelerate their breakthrough at point B, the grenades in their hands played a vital role and demonstrated their powerful force.

The two grenades directly crippled three members of Team A, and the other two were also affected by the grenades to varying degrees.

In this situation, what's most troublesome for Team A isn't the significant amount of health they lost immediately, but rather that after expending so much on items and sacrificing their health to reach the bomb site, they found that the defending team had already retreated to the back, giving them no chance to eliminate the defenders despite their numerical advantage.

So although they used their numerical advantage to capture the B bomb site, they now have to face NA's five players at full strength, with utility replays available.

"Nice, your choice in this wave was very good. You retreated to the back in time. As long as the other side doesn't get the kills and we don't have a numerical disadvantage, we still have a good chance of finding a way to counter-clear and win this round."

Seeing that the two defenders at point B had stopped throwing grenades, Li Mo felt very relieved to see them choose to flank and engage in a gunfight. Clearly, his earlier advice had worked. In the past, if the opposing team had indeed opted for a faster rush, and if Zaiwu and somebody clearly knew that their grenades had inflicted significant damage, they would likely have chosen to aggressively flank and engage in a gunfight, eager to find an opportunity to eliminate several opponents.

In such a hasty gunfight, the opposing side will definitely have a prior psychological warning, so they have already made sufficient preparations and will not be caught off guard.

On the other hand, in this situation, simply using a USP without even a flashbang to pull out and face the enemy's long-range guns is basically no different from feeding, unless the enemy gives you a big opportunity and makes a big mistake to create a kill with the USP.

So this clash between the two sides is actually a situation that the defending side wants to see, because they are now at full strength, haven't lost too much health, and still have a certain number of items.

Although their attack hit the bomb site, it also means that their position is now quite restricted. So, for the defending side, who have already ecoed, this match will obviously involve an attempt to counter-clear the bomb.

"Give two counter-clears and flashbangs, then we'll double-pull from the left and right, putting pressure on the enemy with three gun lines." After giving this basic command, NA quickly executed a counter-clear in this round.

In this round, although no one has gotten a kill yet, it has already entered the endgame stage. The attackers at the bomb site are clearly feeling attacked from both sides and are in a relatively passive position.

Because the distance between firefights has been shortened, especially with the defenders using smoke to create a barrier, the five attackers hiding in the bomb site are now finding it rather difficult.

After NA provided two counter-clear flashes from different directions, in the first wave of contact, NA directly killed three of the opposing team members.

Although the attacking side managed to get two kills after responding with a burst of M4 fire during their rotation.

However, the people who ordered the buns were quickly replaced.

As a result, the other side also completed a two-for-two exchange. NA's eco round was ultimately won thanks to their strong discipline and highly effective bomb-burst tactics.

For Team A, this round was also quite difficult. They had finally won the pistol round, but in this second round, they made the same old mistake: they didn't do enough information gathering and rotation, and instead opted for a quick acceleration. As a result, without gathering enough information and being greatly affected by the defenders' bomb-burst tactics, many of their players at the bomb site were already at low health. This ultimately became the prelude to their downfall during the gunfight.

"It's alright, let's keep looking for opportunities."

If it were against other teams, the players on Team A might experience some psychological fluctuations after losing such a round. However, against Team Na, being overturned by an eco round like this, while unexpected, is actually quite reasonable.

Because even in the World Championship, let alone in training matches like this, it's quite normal for them to lose the pistol round against NA.

The only thing that might be hard for them to accept is that this eco team turned the tide, and NA didn't even attempt a force buy; they were completely overturned by 5 USPs.

In this case, after NA secured this point, he was in a very comfortable position, having picked up two long guns and two blowers from his opponent. He didn't need to buy any more guns in the next round, so economically, he was in a very comfortable position.

In the third round, Na opted to heavily defend point B at the start of the round.

This adjustment in personnel positioning is actually a change they made after returning from this World Championship. Logically speaking, the attacking side suffered such a big setback at point B in the previous round, especially when they tried to speed up and were hit by grenades, which indirectly led to their health being very low during the subsequent gunfights, leaving them with little room or opportunity to maneuver.

Therefore, under such circumstances, Li Mo was very clear that the opposing team was unlikely to make the same mistake twice in this round and then choose to speed up the must-point again. However, they were very likely to play a slow game and eventually break through point B by flanking.

Having considered this, although they deployed three people to heavily defend point B, the people at point A were also fully equipped.

So if the attacking team chooses to attack point A, the players on point A on the Na side can use their utility items to tactically delay the attacking team, harass them, and pick off the enemy. This can buy the attacking team a lot of time.

Another detail is that NA, who usually likes to deploy heavy defenses in the sewers, automatically adjusted the team members in this round.

They deliberately ceded control of the sewers, giving Team A a good chance to rotate after gaining control. However, the sewer defenders anticipated that Team A wouldn't easily give up this excellent opportunity to rotate, and instead lured them to do so. During this process, they used pre-arranged communication and teamwork to launch a cross-gank.

As Team A entered the sewers, they had already walked into the trap set by the two defenders.

Somebody had perfectly concealed himself behind the bank beforehand, making his position extremely mysterious. Team A had no prior warning or preparation regarding his location. Therefore, when they went to rotate, it was no surprise that Somebody seized the opportunity and successfully caught two of them.

"Holy crap, I missed! Otherwise, I think I could have gotten a quadra kill this time."

Facing four opponents on the side, somebody managed to take down two of them with his pull, but Team A's team reacted very quickly, turning their guns around and eliminating somebody instantly.

"That's good. It's good that the hairdryer can kill two people. They lost two people during the eco round. Now the outcome of this round is no longer very suspenseful. We just need to maintain our position and not give them the opportunity to plant the bomb."

The distance between the two sides in this firefight wasn't actually that short, and the ammo for the "hairdryer" (a player's weapon) was relatively limited. Being able to take down two people before the other side could react was already above average. You absolutely can't expect somebody to kill everyone on the other side in this one exchange; that's obviously unrealistic. After all, A's individual ability is undeniable, and his reaction speed in this situation is very fast. (End of Chapter)
