Chapter 282 The Vanishing Dynasty
"You were too anxious in the early stage. As the leader of the first team, you have to stabilize yourself."

In the lounge backstage, zonic pulled gla1ve over, whispering constantly.

"Teammates, opponents, are watching your every move, rushing doesn't do the game any good."

"No matter what the score is, you have to understand that the game can be lost, but the momentum cannot be lost."

"We are the Four Crowns Astralis."

"Look at the four stars on the team uniform, they are all earned by you, me, and Xyp9x, dupreeh, from others one by one."

"As long as we find the right sniper, our previous success can be replicated."

Seeing zonic pointing to the four golden five stars on his chest, gla1ve was silent for a long time.

He didn't know why he was so excited to face his old teammate cadiaN this time.

Maybe it's because of the twitter spats?
Could it be the previous misunderstandings?
He squinted at Hunden not far away, he couldn't figure out the messy thoughts in his heart at this moment.

The last time I was so high in a game, it may date back to the 2019 ESL.

At that time, they were at the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, Denmark. Mouz, led by the big cousin, chased eight points in a row on Dust2 and lost the championship.

The big cousin is also his old teammate.

As both conductors and former teammates, does cadiaN have to take something from him like his big cousin before giving up?
"I can't control my emotions, zonic, that's my problem."

"Now I figure it out."

"Even if we lose the game, so what, we can still come back from the loser's bracket."

"I will let go of everything later and put all my energy on the game."

Have you started to put the next game on the losing side?

Zonic was still worried, but didn't say anything more.

Just patted him on the shoulder, then turned to encourage other team members.

Bubzkji, who has been on the bench for more than a year, has returned to the home team for several months, although his performance is remarkable.

But he has obviously lost the vigor and vitality of the past.

At this time, he was sitting alone in the corner, and the light in his once piercing eyes had long since disappeared.

A year and a half ago, he was still a handsome boy in white. In the first season of the Flashpoint League, he won the MVP medal with an absolute advantage.

But now, it can only be reduced to playing as a support in the A team.

At the golden age of 20, he spent by the drinking fountain.

Although there is now a chance to play again, all tactical arrangements show that he is the least valued part.

If he loses, he doesn't need to take the blame, and if he wins, it's also a victory of team tactics, which has little to do with him.

Even the staff on the side know it.

He's just the improvised one.

It counts as a game.

And every time he finished typing a picture, he was counting the days when he would leave.

"There are still nine months left in the contract with the team. After these nine months, my career should be over."

"Maybe, when the club finds a suitable sniper, I will be laid off early."

"That's good, get out of this disgusting place as soon as possible."

"After that, do something else."

For Bubzkji's self-defeating.

The old coach Zonic saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart, but he was powerless to change all this.

The championship lineup is the unshakable foundation of the club.

Under the circumstances at the time, there was no room for anyone else, even if s1mple came.

"It's a good performance, and I will continue to work hard."

Bubzkji looked up at the sound.

Seeing the visitor, there was no surprise or wave in his eyes, and a slight nod was considered a response.

Zonic froze for a moment, then took a deep breath.

"Don't give up, as long as you can play well, even if you can't find your place here, you can find a place elsewhere."

"You are still young, you can still fight, believe in yourself."

Glancing at zonic.

if only……

also……

At this time last year, they must have said the same thing.

So this time, Bubzkji didn't even bother to nod his head.

Has given up on the original dream, then anyone is no different in Bubzkji's eyes.

Why should you care about their attitude?

Getting no response, Zonic sighed silently, and sat back on the sofa.

Xyp9x sat on the other corner of the sofa, biting his fingers in a daze.

On the other side, dupreeh and Magisk put their heads together, plotting something in a low voice, their eyes rolling.

Zonic was curious and bent over.

"What are you two talking about?"

Instead of answering the coach's question, dupreeh glanced at Magisk first.

After getting the latter's nod.

Dupreeh said leisurely: "Zonic, don't you think that the current A team is extremely uncompetitive?"

Zonic was shocked: "What do you mean?"

"Even if we find a qualified sniper, we will not be able to replicate the glory we once had. You and I both know this very well."

"?"

"gla1ve has stopped moving forward and is tightly tied to Astralis. Xyp9x has already begun to perform badly. No matter what the record is, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to speak up, no one will let him leave."

"As for Bubzkji, although he was cheated by the management, you can also see his current attitude."

"A player who gives up everything cannot have a future."

"How long has it been since you won a championship?"

"It seems that everyone doesn't care about the results, and the management even feels that it is enough for the A team to maintain vitality."

"Because if you want to become a champion again, the cost is a bit too high. At least two people need to be replaced. I don't know how long the running-in period will take."

"But I can see that you have been working hard and still giving your all for the team."

"But I think the current A team is no longer worth your effort."

"Magisk and I still want to continue to win the championship, do you want to join us?"

Seeing Dupreeh, who is usually carefree, so serious, Zonic knew he wasn't joking this time.

After being silent for nearly 30 seconds, he said with difficulty: "I will reply to you after the game is over."

"Then no matter what your reply is, for the sake of our friends for many years, keep it secret for us."

Zonic nodded immediately: "No problem."

The halftime break ended soon, and everyone got up and prepared to go to the players' seats again under the prompt of the staff.

Magisk walked quickly to dupreeh's side, lowering his voice.

"Is it possible?"

Obviously, it refers to the matter of recruiting Zonic just now.

"Based on what I know about him, his attitude just now is actually a promise." Dupreeh is very confident. "Look, after the game, he will immediately find us to discuss which team is suitable for the next stop."

Speaking of zonic, zonic seemed to sense something, looked back from the front, and nodded to them with a smile.

It was as if it was the same as usual, cheering them on.

Magisk looked at everything that was so familiar before, and sighed slightly.

The game for the second map, Death Building, will start soon.

Heroic took the initiative to choose maps and was the first to attack in the first half.

cadiaN is already gearing up.

"Brothers, go, if you win, I invite everyone to Huo Beer."

Stavn looked at Wang Che with doubts in his eyes: "Hey, Clear, can we drink?"

Wang Che: "You ask me about this kind of thing, how do I know, cadiaN is the captain."

"But the team manager is Felicity, do you still need me to tell you about your relationship with her?" stavn sighed faintly, extremely sad. "Oh, she's so strict, she even has to control what I eat in the morning."

"Nonsense, no normal person wakes up in the morning and drinks iced coke with frozen shrimp." Wang Che rolled his eyes. "She is afraid that you will open the back door during the competition."

"Hahahaha, focus on the game." Watching the server refresh, cadiaN laughed out loud. "I'll take care of everything!"

"Wuhu, go, brothers!"

Compared with Heroic's energetic side, Astralis' side is extremely dull.

Zonic, who always likes to give precautions before the game, kept silent.

The sigh of gla1ve continued to be heard in the voice.

So harsh.

Waiting for the game to start, gla1ve reluctantly said: "Come on, brothers, we can still win."

This sound of cheering up, the more I listened, the more confident I became.

……

Figure [-] The game will officially start soon.

During the pistol round, Wang Che thought that Heroic would have a tough fight for a while.

After all, the strength shown by Astralis in the last picture is very threatening.

But the pistol round just came into contact.

Not only Wang Che, but everyone felt the difference.

It's not getting stronger, but there is an indescribable sense of alienation.

It was as if they were not a team, but five ladder solo players who were fighting independently, just playing games for the sake of playing games, and forced to get together.

As usual, Wang Che took the P250 issued by cadiaN and prepared to control slope A with his teammates.

But as soon as they reached the bottom of the slope, Astralis defended the CT at point A with an anti-clearing flash, took the initiative to walk out of the big slope, and started a long-distance exchange of fire with Heroic and the others.

"One dodge, anti-Qing, Astralis is very active, trying to rely on the advantage of USP's long-pointed one-shot head to compete with Heroic."

The playing machine had just switched to the live broadcast screen at this time.

"Did gla1ve forget that Clear is always available for P250?"

"gla1ve pulled out the yellow cloth and was taken away with a single shot, without even firing the shot."

"Magisk, USP hits a headshot and takes TeSeS away, but he's also stuck with Glock bullets."

"Stavn is correct, the gun is completed."

"Bubzkji also pulled out at this time, trying to fill the gun."

"But if the first shot doesn't hit the head, there is no chance. Clear is too accurate."

"This……"

"How should I put it, Team A is playing in a bit of a hurry."

【urgent?I think the anchor is in a hurry. 】

[Wuhu, win the pistol round! 】

[One flash pulls out to give three, this scene feels a bit like Tianlu. 】

[Tianlu?Dilu! 】

……

Easily enter the package point A and download the package smoothly.

The police were called in quick succession, but Wang Che and cadiaN took the initiative.

But Xyp9x's back defense was weak, USP even hit Wang Che with four sideways shots, and missed a single shot.

The half-white Wang Che has yet to find out where the bullet came from.

cadiaN took the lead with two shots of Glock first, and took him away.

[Heroic.cadiaN kills Astralis.Xyp9x with a Glock headshot]

"Clear, what do you mean by jumping around in circles with your head down?" cadiaN laughed.

"Preventing headshots, isn't this a routine operation?" Wang Che blushed.

How can he be blamed for this? It is really hard to find USP in vain.

"There's another dupreeh, watch your back, there's no one here."

In the next second, a good news came from the sjuush after the break.

[Heroic.sjuush kills Astralis.dupreeh with a Glock headshot]

Attack point A in the pistol round, and easily win with only one player lost.

This simply exceeded everyone's expectations.

Seeing the score change to 1:0, cadiaN tsk-tsk said: "This team A, why is it different from just now?"

"Did it give you the illusion that winning was too easy?" TeSeS continued, he didn't fire a single shot and was the first to die. He didn't think there was any problem with Team A at all.

"I think they seem to give up the game a little bit, playing very formulaic." Wang Che thought for a while and said.

Formulated, brainless to execute according to the established tactics, completely ignorant of flexibility.

Although it can be effective in some specific situations, in the eyes of players of Heroic's level, it is no different from ladder play.

Because of these anti-clearing routines, you can see them everywhere in FPL and high score ladders.

"Let's play and watch later." cadiaN finished the chat and immediately asked everyone to return to the game. "B in the middle, Clear, which side do you want to go?"

"Then I'll go in the middle."

"OK, stavn, sjuush is waiting outside B."

In the second round, the freezing time ends.

Wang Che's breakthrough in the middle did not encounter any resistance.

The attack speed Quicksand Eagle of the former endgame master Xyp9x played an astonishing 0-point ADR, which is surprising.

Wang Che hit a headshot and then stepped onto the platform.

The helpless dupreeh at point B is already looking like he is waiting to die.

With almost no resistance, he was taken away by the AK and the hair dryer.

Under normal circumstances, in the face of such a 3v5 disadvantageous endgame, Team A will choose to save the gun and fight the next round.

But gla1ve was uncharacteristically, and still brought his teammates to let cadiaN play two blows in a row.

After winning the strong start and then taking the ECO, Heroic won the first three points without any pressure.

In the fourth round, cadiaN didn't even bother to let the players throw away the hair dryer, and directly called a wave of B-spot Rush.

Astralis' paper-like point B was taken down by Heroic so easily.

Then three more rounds passed.

The score came directly to 7:0.

The Heroic on the offensive side has almost 16000 economy.

……

"Heroic's death building is strong, but it's not so strong."

"Although Team A is not as good as before, it shouldn't be played like this. It feels...too ugly."

"The previous game was pretty good, why did it suddenly become like this today?"

"Could it be that the picture of Purgatory Town just now feels like it's been beaten?"

"But that doesn't make sense."

"Bubzkji is fighting alone, dupreeh is single B and has no brains to press forward. Xyp9x and gla1ve are either returning to defense or on the way to returning to defense."

"The devil boy is not a boy from the front tonight, but a boy from the back."

"The whole crew is sleepwalking, without any tactical details and coordination."

"And, zonic doesn't even bother to pause."

[Live in Bengbu, team A should disband as soon as possible. 】

[This score is too desperate, can't you just beat GG and surrender? 】

[The metaphysics score is here, I, Astralis, can still fight! 】

[Fight for wool, hurry up and take it away. 】

……

站在Astralis选手席后面的zonic看着Xyp9x的0-7，还有dupreeh的2-7，一脸麻木。

After just thinking about leaving, he suddenly felt that everything in front of him was irrelevant.

Originally thought that the team could recover in IEM Cologne.

But now, he felt that he couldn't even get out of the loser group.

The human mind is so wonderful.

An hour ago, he couldn't believe that he would have such a thought.

"Wuhu! Nice! Clear!"

Suddenly, zonic's thoughts were interrupted by cheers from Heroic's side.

In the eighth round, Wang Che made a three-kill breakthrough at point A, hit three headshots, and walked all the way from the yellow cloth to the bunker point, before being caught by the dupreeh big sniper who defended.

And Heroic, who scored again, has already begun to shout selflessly.

Everyone cheered and laughed, and victory was within easy reach.

And listening to these cheers, everyone in Astralis felt like a war criminal.

But even war criminals, everyone has their own little thoughts.

The more you lose, the lower your morale, and the lower your morale, the less you can win.

It was only 20 minutes since the pistol round, and the score in the first half was fixed at 14:1.

Astralis, whose defeated economy was full, struggled to keep the only point in the last round of the first half, relying on double snipers.

Dupreeh, who was so numb after losing for a long time, ecstatically shouted after scoring the points: "Yeah! We are the champions!"

After the offensive and defensive swap in the second half, even with Bubzkji's incredible performance, he won the pistol round.

But gla1ve has long known that the general situation is over, and all resistance is just delaying their failure.

Can't be strong, then ECO.

When the score came to 14:4, the second half of the long gun game also came.

Heroic played five M4A1s, easily defended Astralis' slope attack, and got the match point.

Afterwards, relying on point B to double press forward, the game ended smoothly.

A clean 2:0.

The moment the game is over, zonic knows,

The trip to IEM Cologne is not over yet, but now this Astralis team.May be coming to an end.
