Chapter 404 NIKO Has a Crush on Nice

There were no twists and turns, no reversals, and no suspense. The confrontation in the second half of the train was quite dull. After the little bee grasped the rhythm, he easily carried Big away in one breath.

"The little bee finally defeated Big with a score of 16:11 on this map of his own choice!" The English stream commentator said loudly in the live broadcast room, "The end of this train stop also means that this BO3 has come to an end!"

"Because the little bee has defeated Big with a big score of 2-0 and successfully advanced to the next round of the game!"

The fans of the little bee are very happy.

They have been paying attention to the little bee for a long time. After each offseason, the little bee will enter the state slowly. Today, in the first game of the offseason, they are worried that the little bee will give them a cerebral hemorrhage again. Although there were many operations on the train with Big today, the final result was good.

[It seems that there has been a lot of training during the offseason. This is much better than before]

[Didn't you see the video posted by the official account of the little bee? The North fights 10,000 bots every day during the offseason]

[Use Negev to fight, right? I can fight 100,000! 】

【Laughing to death, who would have thought that the North would really take out the Negev today】

【Today's game is really abstract, it made me laugh so many times】

【smooya was at the top of today's game, constantly switching between non-human and human】

【That wave of face-to-face catheters made me laugh】

"Watching the Little Bee game again? You really have a crush on Nice!" A slightly childish voice came from his ear, and NIKO was very upset.

The only one with this voice in the team is Broky, the youngest. After all, the others are old-timers, and their voices are not so young.

Broky is a talented young man that he is very optimistic about. His performance in Faceit and the second-tier competitions is quite outstanding. Except for some flaws in his props, his shooting skills, awareness, game understanding and competition IQ are quite good.

Before NEO left, he communicated with NEO and Nice and imagined the future of Faze.

At that time, he was trying to poach people, but Xu Beifang politely rejected him, so he could only talk with the idea of ​​forming the future Galaxy Battleship.

At first, he wanted to take up the sniper rifle again, but NEO and Xu Beifang unanimously opposed it.

To be honest, NIKO thought he was actually good at using the sniper rifle, but Xu Beifang and NEO thought it was completely unnecessary.

Why should a T0.5 rifleman become a T1.5 sniper? This is totally not worth the loss.

So after NEO was demoted and Guadian left, their entire team was reorganized. Good snipers were hard to buy on the market, so NIKO proposed to buy newcomers to try.

Broky was the newcomer he was most optimistic about.

"You are just sitting there, throw a prop later and hit 1,000 bots for me!" NIKO was not angry about Broky's ridicule, but just replied lightly.

Broky stopped talking instantly.

Throwing a prop to hit 1,000 bots is indeed not much.

But he always makes eight or ten mistakes a day.

If he fights nearly ten thousand more bots, he will be exhausted.

He decisively changed the subject: "How was the first game of the offseason for Little Bee?"

"Emm..." NIKO thought for a while, "How should I describe it? They played quite well overall. They beat them on Big's strong map in the first map."

"In the second map, Little Bee took the initiative to choose Train..."

Broky asked in confusion: "Didn't they not play Train?"

NIKO shrugged: "I don't understand either. Maybe they were thinking of practicing another map... But this level is really just practiced. The play is really abstract, and some offensive coordination is too bad."

In the big map of Train, the synchronization of the players, the connection of the props, etc. all need to be deliberately practiced, but Little Bee played like a ladder, which made him speechless.

"Little Bee lost? How about map 3?"

"No, Little Bee won."

"Then Big is also quite abstract."

NIKO thought for a moment. On the train map, smooya shot his teammate who was left behind and acted as a conduit in front of the opponent.

"It is indeed quite abstract."

While talking, Lengshen also walked into the training room and said with a smile: "Little Bee had a good first game in the offseason."

It was obvious that he was watching the game on his phone in the toilet just now.

NIKO nodded at him, then searched for the post-match data on HLTV. Looking at the post-match data, he couldn't help laughing.

"I can only say that these are two big sniper maps. The advantage of this sniper is too great."

"Seeing Beifang operating all the time in the server, but the final MVP turned out to be Zaiwu."

After the BO3 game, Zaiwu ranked first among all people with 45 kills and 21 deaths and a rating of 1.55.

Broky listened but shook his head: "Actually, you are right. Nice's influence is still greater. He also got 44 kills, but he died more often."

Xu Beifang's data is second only to Zaiwu, with 44 kills and 30 deaths, ranking second among all people. His average damage per round is 97.7, even 2.1 higher than Zaiwu, and his rating is 1.49.

It is very obvious at a glance.

Although Zaiwu's data is better, Broky himself is a sniper, and he knows very well that snipers are more likely to achieve good data in high-intensity games.

Just like Nice died 10 more times than Zaiwu in this BO3.

And he was killed 10 more times, but he was still close to Zaiwu's rating, which shows a certain problem.

However, he also understands that it is more difficult for snipers to achieve good data in low-intensity games.

Because snipers may not even see the opponent with their guns, and their teammates have already rushed to the opponent's face and killed all the people. In that kind of game, if the speed is a little slower, the heads are gone.

He looked at Xu Beifang's data and couldn't help but sigh: "If Nice performs normally in the next IEMBJ station, then this year's TOP1 must be him."

He thinks it's really outrageous.

In 2018, S1mple beat everyone and won the TOP1 of HLTV, which made them all see the power of top snipers. Everyone thought that the era of sniper dominance would come next.

But I didn't expect a rifle kid to come out and daze all the professional guys in the first-line competition.

"What are you thinking?" NIKO said disdainfully, "This guy doesn't need good data at IEMBJ. As long as he doesn't hit outrageous data like 0.3 or 0.4 at IEMBJ, he has already locked in the TOP1 of this year."

NIKO was a little speechless: "This guy's data has been broken!"

As a famous epiphany kid, Xu Beifang's data in the first half of the year was not particularly exaggerated, mainly stable.

The average hovered around 1.3 and 1.4.

However, the sudden outbreak in Cologne, coupled with the good data of the Major, directly raised his data by one point, which is quite terrifying.

Xu Beifang's current full-year data has reached a terrifying 1.51.

The second place is S1mple, his data is 1.29.

Xu Beifang's average data in the game is already 0.2 higher than this guy in the same period, which is really strong with a gap.

Leng Shen smiled and said, "Actually, this is a good thing. The upper limit of CSGO, a broken game, has never been discovered slowly. Before 2018, everyone thought that an average of 1.2 was outrageous, and then Sen Po broke my record and got 1.33, which broke everyone's cognition."

"I knew at the time that at a certain stage in the future, there would definitely be a player who broke S1mple's record, but I didn't expect it to be so fast and so outrageous."

NIKO took a breath: "But he didn't come out of nowhere, this guy had a sign in 2018."

"Click on me, right?" Leng Shen smiled, "I was disgusted at the time."

During the 2018 HLTV selection, Leng Shen was stepped on by Xu Beifang.

At that time, Xu Beifang had only played a few games in total, and many people commented that the judges selected people for the Chinese market. Leng Shen also felt very dissatisfied for a while.

But now, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with being ranked behind Xu Beifang.

This is reasonable, right!

In the future, he can say that he is just behind Xu Beifang.

But on second thought, he can brag that he is TOP1.

"At least it is good news for you young people." NIKO said to the delicate Broky, "His excellent data will make you pursue higher goals, and naturally your requirements for yourself will become higher."

(Broky: I was still very young at that time)

Just like when he debuted, the data of TOP1 hovered around 1.2, and he would definitely pursue stability above 1.2, because this data was already excellent enough.

But Moribei kept raising the data, and the goals of subsequent CSGO young players will naturally become higher.

Because the desire to win is difficult to be satisfied, the desire will naturally become stronger.

"Higher requirements?" Broky smiled mischievously, "I'm dead! 1.51 is a rating that people can pursue?"

1.51 is already a very good data in an ordinary game.

If he had a burst, he could have achieved this kind of data, but the annual average of 1.51 was a bit too outrageous.

Broky felt that it was more realistic to surpass his own record than to surpass this industry goal.

"By the way, when will we have a chance to play against Little Bee?" Broky still recognized Xu Beifang's strength. After all, the two often played together in Faceit. Xu Beifang was really awesome, and he only complained about his props occasionally.

So he was still looking forward to playing against the strongest team in the world today.

Leng Shen pushed his glasses and recalled: "If I remember correctly, we will have a chance to meet them at the next IEMBJ station, it depends on how lucky we are in the group."

He looked at Broky: "But with Little Bee's current state, there will be no problem entering the knockout stage, so cheer for yourself at that time, there is a great chance to meet them."

Broky didn't say anything, he just wanted to have a chance to play against the world's number one, and Leng Shen's provocation didn't work on him.

Faze has shown considerable strength recently. It is in the honeymoon period of the new lineup, but it is still very difficult to beat the Little Bee.

However, he is looking forward to it. If he can really beat the Little Bee, he will have a firm foothold in the first-tier arena.

At this time, NIKO also asked: "Who will the Little Bee play next?"

Leng Shen looked at his phone: "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be..."

"ENCE!"

...

"Smooya, why don't you join the Little Bee." Xu Beifang invited smooya in the TS voice.

Smooya listened with a lot of question marks: "What? The offseason is over, you say this bullshit..."

"Otherwise, if you are the sixth man in the game, our boss will not pay you!"

Smooya's face darkened: "That was a surprise! ! Fuck!"

At that time, his attention was diverted, so when he saw a figure in the crosshairs, he subconsciously fired.

"After the arrival of Little Bee, don't guide in the game, it's not a good influence."

Smooya shouted: "Don't talk about me, share 200g seeds with me."

This time it was Xu Beifang's turn to be helpless: "You are spreading rumors outside every day!"

Smooya laughed: "With this fighting power, you still come to mock me? Come on, when we have a chance to play offline next time, I will explode with you directly!"

Hearing smooya say this, Xu Beifang was actually looking forward to it.

Smooya did play sick today and lost several key rounds.

If it weren't for his problem, Big could actually get more points.

However, even so, Big was the best player, which shows how powerful this sniper of the Great Ying Empire is.

And because it is an online game, it takes this guy a while to get into the state.

But if it is an offline game, it is still more fun to play with smooya.

Both sides can mock each other and shout face to face.

It's interesting that a scumbag like smooya won't get angry with you.

After taunting each other with smooya, Xu Beifang lay on the sofa leisurely.

The first BO3 of the offseason was successfully won, which gave them a good feeling.

However, it was also the problem of the offseason that caused many problems.

First of all, their tactical atlas needs to be updated. Their overall tactics are still a bit old, and they need to come up with some new things as killer moves.

Then the communication and cooperation between the players need to be strengthened. They have found some feelings in this regard on the train. As long as they play more games in the future, they should be able to find their form slowly.

Then there is the train that XTQZZZ has high hopes for.

On this map, their overall performance is actually not bad, but the bombs, synchronization and the like are more abstract when taken out separately.

XTQZZZ is still scratching his head and watching the video to summarize the problems on that map.

Xu Beifang has nothing to do for the time being. He also watched the confrontation of the train from his own + overall perspective and made a simple review and summary from a personal perspective.

In fact, there is no big problem with his personal operation. The overall adjustment is based on team cooperation. Occasionally, he gave away heads a few times because of timing problems.

Train will have to watch some reviews of the whole team by the bald coach. From the perspective of the team, the coach is much better than himself.

After the train was swept, Xu Beifang set his sights on Sha Er.

Although they won on this map, Big still put a lot of pressure on them, which proves that Big's play has some merits.

Xu Beifang also watched the video of this map.

After watching it all, Xu Beifang found that Big really likes to grab A big.

And after grabbing A big, they can get too many advantages by relying on the position of A big.

The head of state knows the psychology of CT after losing A big very well. After losing A big, CT can only be forced to stand in a "one" shape. The acquisition of information from the outside world depends entirely on how much information the bandits give.

In this case, he used the cigarettes of the police in A as a fulcrum to force the CTs on the platform, compressing their vision, and then carried out tactics such as going straight up A, double-teaming A and A, feinting A to B, etc.

There are many variations of their play style, but it is interesting to be able to score points.

Xu Beifang studied in front of the computer for a long time. Shox heard his ideas and joined the discussion.

Shox said: "The simplest one should be to directly counter-clear and get information to determine whether there are people in his A. "

Big is making a fuss around A. They counter-clear to confirm whether Big is attacking, and they can read the opponent's offensive intention.

"But it's not appropriate." Xu Beifang went back a round and adjusted the time. "Look, this point Big is ready to raise A in the second time, and let Smooya enter the big pit at the beginning. If he counter-clears at this time, he is likely to be directly framed to death by him. Once the first kill is obtained, Big will directly speed up."

"Then why don't we try to hold up a group in the B area?" Jack asked.

"This is a good idea." Xu Beifang nodded, "We have lost control of the map, so we can just counter-clear from Area B. Getting the information here can be considered as exchanging map resources, and we can lock on to their attack on Area A."

After locking on the opponent's attack route, subsequent defense will be easier.

Countering various props and preparing crossfire in advance can keep the opponent out.

The analyst said: "In fact, the best way is to take down A directly, so that you don't have to worry about these things."

apEX said speechlessly: "Don't make trouble here. It's useless to discuss the countermeasures after losing A."

After complaining, he turned around and said: "Jack's idea is fine. If A is lost, we should find a way to get back from A or B. We can even make plans to clear the middle road in advance."

shox asked again at this time: "What if our formation is more inclined to A at the beginning, but we don't grab A?"

"And even if we control A, what if we use Big to get close and then flash?"

Not all rounds can be prepared for the best. Sometimes they make some decisions on the spot and need to be forced to meet the enemy.

Zaiwu murmured, "It's just that the police cigarettes are annoying. Once these two cigarettes explode, it will be difficult for my platform to get information."

In the case of a sniper rifle on the opposite side, the platform will most likely be killed by the big pit. Even if he uses the flash to clear out, it is not cost-effective for him to face the scalp of the big pit.

"Police cigarettes!" Xu Beifang took a breath, "The key point is here!"

His eyes lit up, and he had an idea in his mind, and he immediately opened the client.

After thinking about it, he pulled Zaiwu, who was eating snacks next to him, in.

Others gathered around him, wanting to see what inspiration Xu Beifang had.

"Shushu, just give those two police cigarettes directly." Xu Beifang commanded.

He wanted Zaiwu to simulate the bandits attacking with explosive bombs.

Zaiwu nodded, and after asking Xu Beifang, he immediately started to explode the bomb.

"I thought of two ways. One is to throw fire directly to destroy the landing point of the smoke bomb."

Xu Beifang took out the incendiary bomb and stared at the teeth on the wall.

The moment he saw the smoke bomb appear, he immediately threw it towards the middle of the road.

The smoke bomb mechanism of CSGO does not explode instantly when it lands, but it will explode after several ricochets.

But smoke bombs can extinguish incendiary bombs, so as long as this mechanism is used in reverse, you can use incendiary bombs to destroy the landing point of smoke bombs.

This is a bit similar to the method of nuke using incendiary bombs to destroy the landing point of a line of smoke.

After the police smoke was destroyed by Xu Beifang with an incendiary bomb, it did not reach the designated position and exploded in the middle of the road.

The CT under the police station can easily output to the bandits who pass by.

"Then the second method is to actively push a smoke bomb out when the opponent gives smoke, and then seize the opportunity to directly intercept the smoke bomb in an American way!"

As Xu Beifang said, he looked at the position and directly blocked the second smoke bomb thrown by the download with his body.

All CSGO props have a characteristic that the props will stop after hitting a person.

In Desert City, the police often use their bodies to block the smoke and destroy the landing point of the police smoke.

The same is true for the map of Sand II.

"The idea is indeed good, but is it too risky to intercept in this way?"

Professional is not like low-end games. If Xu Beifang pushes this smoke out, the opponent may shoot madly at this area. If he is shot dead, he will die.

"Nothing is risk-free. You have to try to break the game."

"If the opponent shoots directly, it's actually okay. You don't have to hit the smoke, because we can roughly determine their approximate position, and they don't know whether we will counter-clear."

"As long as we can delay time and consume their props, our goal will be achieved."

Although there is indeed a certain risk, apEX thinks it is much better than all-in counter-clearing as shox said.

I can only say that in terms of game IQ, Xu Beifang is still very strong.

apEX nodded: "That's it for now. Everyone, go to the server and practice for a while, and master the trajectory of the two police smoke bombs."

Only by understanding the trajectory can they use it better in the game.

The next time they encounter a similar situation, they will have more ways to deal with it.

Although they can play the map of Sha Er, they don't have many cards in their hands.

For them, single-player practice is not difficult. They only need to enter a few commands in the console to simulate their own actions, and they can do it by themselves.

Xu Beifang also practiced for a while. After mastering the general landing, he ran around in Sha Er to explore some new props.

Then after running for a while, he found a very abstract fire behind the full burning A gate.

And an ultimate fake smoke bomb.

He jumped around in the map casually, thinking about what props he needed to cooperate with the attack.

A casual jump in the A gate suddenly hung in the middle of the A gate box.

Xu Beifang: "!!"

Although he accidentally came down the next second, he had clearly stepped on it just now, and he was very impressed.

Moreover, the flight key in his map server was set to the 'P' key, which could not be accidentally touched at all.

Xu Beifang was excited now. The discovery just now showed that this place could be reached by a single person.

If a technique to reach it by a single person could be found, it would be very interesting.

In certain rounds, this information could be used to mislead the opponent.

Even in certain endgames, this technique could play a big role.

At worst, in the economic game, this technique could be used to steal a wave of opportunities.

Xu Beifang immediately started researching how to reach the A box by a single person.

…
