CSGO: This player is too persuasive!

Chapter 457 18. NIKO: "Am I the commander again?"

“Isn’t this a bit too crazy?”

In the hotel training room, Elige carefully considered his words and said, "The netizens are very aggressive, and if we don't get it, I guess this joke will be around for a long time."

Brother Ji is a relatively introverted player.

But after so many years in the profession, although he has not suffered much criticism, he also knows what those netizens are like.

He thought it would be better to be more conservative when speaking to outsiders.

Although Xu Beifang is now his commander, in Elige's impression, Xu Beifang is still the young man who took the initiative to ask him how to practice "gun control".

He subconsciously protects his shortcomings.

The Internet has memory. If you say something but fail to do what you say, there will definitely be backlash in the future.

For example, when mentioning the old ENCE, everyone can think of the bad things that happened between Leo and Allu.

Everyone can think of something like "We introduced suNny in order to become the best in the world."

Xu Beifang now expressed his thoughts confidently in the interview. If he fails to do so in the Shanghai Major in the second half of the year, he will definitely be held accountable.

"Don't be afraid, he's always like this." NIKO comforted Elige, but there was some envy in his words.

NIKO used to be so young, full of vigor and confidence in all occasions.

But as he was just a hair's breadth away from glory, he began to become introverted and started to worry about the impact of his words.

There were even moments of despair when I said, "I'm not worthy of a Major."

So he envied Xu Beifang very much, who could always have such overflowing confidence no matter when.

This might be the reason why he accepted Xu Beifang's invitation and joined COL.

There was some worry in JKS's eyes, but he tended to keep his thoughts to himself and didn't like to express his emotions.

Only Danking sneered: "Do you think this guy is afraid of the comments of those netizens?"

"He's eager for those netizens to discuss him?"

NIKO sighed: "But then it won't be a discussion, it might just be an attack."

"Even if you don't believe in yourselves, you have to believe in this guy." Tiedan pointed at Xu Beifang, "This guy is the one who can open champagne before the finals."

NIKO and others raised their eyebrows. They also remembered that in 19, before a final between Little Bees and NAVI, Xu Beifang opened a bottle of champagne and said that he would definitely win the championship.

Then that final was the rise of the Peak Bees.

Because that little bee is so nostalgic, many people in the community have made disciplinary videos, and they were quite impressed.

Xu Beifang looked at Tiedan and smiled helplessly: "What do you mean by opening champagne? I went into the final with the belief that I would win. Well, for that final, I thought we could win."

"This is called having a clear understanding of strength."

Xu Beifang doesn't think he can open champagne. He thinks carefully about what he says.

"I really want to refute it." Danking pointed at Xu Beifang, "But this guy has done everything he boasted about so far."

This is extremely rare.

Many e-sports players leave the field with regrets, but all the boasts Xu Beifang made in interviews or documentaries have been successfully fulfilled.

That's pretty outrageous.

Xu Beifang also laughed: "I'm not just talking nonsense."

"You all know that now that I have won the resurrection match and have come back to form a new team, the ultimate goal must be the Major, because you all understand that the Major means something different to us."

Several people in the room fell silent.

Elige, NIKO, JKS and even Danking, they have all been in the circle for many years and have participated in many large and small competitions.

NIKO and Elige have been competing against each other on the front line for many years. From the CSGO era to the CS2 era, they are the most popular rifle players.

But none of them has ever won a Major trophy.

To put it simply, even if their fans argue for them and the 'Major Club' players, they have no confidence at all.

"Our entire team has the strength, but we still need some adjustments to fully develop our level."

"The moment the level is truly developed, that will be the moment our space battleship sets sail."

Xu Beifang's voice was like the whisper of a devil, silently scratching their hearts and making them feel a little itchy, but they also began to look forward to it in their eyes.

If other commanders said this, they would definitely not believe it.

Even if 'Zhuge Breathing' said so, they only thought it was a means of motivation.

But this is Xu Beifang!

The strongest weapon in the CSGO era, the guy who single-handedly led the Little Bees to win the Major championship.

The player who has been ranked TOP1 for two consecutive years.

Really believe what he said.

"Can we really do it?" NIKO's tone sounded unreal, yet somewhat expectant.

Danking immediately shouted, “You can do it!”

"You guys think I'm good enough, but I know in my heart that I'm not." NIKO said with a little regret.

Danking immediately said: "I don't allow you to say that about yourself! You can do it!"

"Can I really do it?"

Elige and JKS stood by with dismayed expressions on their faces.

Although Danking's level is not as exaggerated as Xu Beifang, he has a strong appeal in life.

Just like a virus, he can infect others with his aura.

Look, NIKO has also been infected and turned into a clown.

"Forget it if it doesn't work." TC walked in from outside with a small notebook, and instantly saw NIKO's eyes full of murderous intent.

"What's wrong?" the smiling coach said carefully.

"It's okay. They were discussing who is the better clown in the team, and NIKO won in the end." Xu Beifang said casually, and soon attracted the attention of the Hyuga people.

However, Coach Xiaoxi didn't care too much about their fight. Instead, he clapped his hands and signaled everyone to come over to review the game.

"Today's review is a little special. Let's take a look at this picture first..."

As he spoke, Coach Xiaoxi projected a picture.

The quality of the projected photos is not particularly high, but the projector carried by the coaching staff is not particularly expensive.

But they still could tell that the projected photo was special.

Because the left side of the photo is Xu Beifang's makeup photo, the right side is Xu Beifang's kill data, and the top is 16:14, which is the score of the Ancient Ruins.

Even when they saw Xu Beifang's data again, they still couldn't help but feel amazed.

However, no one said anything, because they knew that the coach brought out this data at this time not because he wanted them to praise Xu Beifang.

"What's wrong?" Xu Beifang took the initiative to smile and start the conversation.

In fact, he probably guessed that it must be about other people's poor performance.

There is a classic experience in the CSGO era: when a team commander gets the most kills, there is a high probability that they will win the game.

COL's situation is a bit special, but the performance in this game is similar to that principle.

"You got too many kills." TC looked at his teammates solemnly, "This shouldn't be the case."

Tiedan was a little confused: "Could it be that Xu Beifang was wrong to kill so many people?"

Coach Xiaoxi shook his head: "It's not a problem that he kills a lot. The problem is that in such a tense game, you got too few kills."

His words were too straightforward, and Danking felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

The other people were also a little embarrassed and didn't know how to respond.

Their performance in this game was only average, with their average KD only 1, which was lower than NIKO's.

They didn't play well, so they didn't have the confidence to refute anything. Xu Beifang said: "It's not their fault. I was able to get so many kills because I got a lot of kills from NIKO. And C9 knew I was the main defense in the B zone, so they started to force me to play."

At this point he was somewhat helpless: "As you all know, I have been targeted quite a lot. It is very common for me to fire a shot at A and the opponent to go straight to B."

Three people have enjoyed this treatment in the history of CSGO.

They are Xu Beifang, S1mple and Zaiwu.

Their individual abilities are too outstanding.

The fourth device was ridiculed as the limit of human beings, and netizens' evaluation of these three people has exceeded the human level.

Even in professional competitions, they are treated in special ways by their opponents.

Avoiding war is the simplest way.

Coach Xiaoxi nodded and looked at Xu Beifang seriously: "This is the first problem I am considering. Beifang, you have too little freedom of exchange of fire right now!"

Xu Beifang wanted to say something, but Coach Xiaoxi didn't give him a chance.

"In today's game, C9 actually successfully targeted you, but they made more mistakes, which allowed us to win this game in Ancient Ruins. I just watched the replay, and except for a few times when they took the initiative to come over and bomb A, most of their map control in the rest of the rounds was concentrated in the middle lane and A point."

"Fatball didn't compete with you for the map control of Slope B because he knew you were always here. He locked your position here, so he must have made a profit."

Fat Ball faced off against Xu Beifang in the ancient ruins map. Fat Ball knew that he would definitely not be able to defeat Xu Beifang in a head-on gunfight, so he was completely using the tactic of distraction.

Just like the two top laners in League of Legends, Xu Beifang is a warrior-type top laner like Aatrox, while Fat Ball is a blue-collar top laner like a Stone Man uncle.

Fat Qiu knew that he could not beat Xu Beifang in a one-on-one fight, so as long as he dragged him to the top lane and the two of them developed equally, he would have the advantage.

But he underestimated Xu Beifang's ability in the endgame.

But, he finally restrained Xu Beifang.

Xu Beifang thought for a moment and said, "I didn't expect this. I can change it later. I will move on the map and take the initiative to drive the pace."

Coach Xiaoxi shook his head: "The core problem is not that you are always moving around, the core problem is that you are now a commander."

Xu Beifang was stunned.

Elige seemed to sense something and said, "Northern is leading the team well now. We are fighting smoothly. Although there are some problems, we can correct them slowly."

"There is indeed nothing wrong with his command." TC looked at Xu Beifang, "But I think you should have realized it yourself. Your ability has not been fully utilized."

Xu Beifang pursed his lips and nodded helplessly.

He felt this when he played against VP.

He didn't have that feeling of giving it his all.

Even though he won by a crushing victory, the feeling he had was still different.

"As a commander, your layout limits your ability." TC got to the point, "You focus too much on the game issues, which will cause you to become an ordinary chess piece in your decision-making."

"In fact, there is a way to solve this problem," he added.

NIKO immediately asked: "What kind of fighting style?"

TC said: "Learn from Fatty Ball in Peak NAVI, use this position as a human flash bomb, pull the gun for teammates, get information, and touch alone."

"But this is a waste of talent." NIKO explained his opinion, "It's totally unnecessary. Beifang and Fatty's personal abilities are not on the same level. I absolutely don't agree with playing like this."

The way Fat Ball played during the peak NAVI period was actually a bit like breathing.

They all physically explored the points and provided information to the team to pull the trigger.

But Xu Beifang is special. His personal ability is unprecedentedly strong. Even in the command position, he can still get many kills and influence the battle situation.

"Whether it is my role as a commander or my personal opinion, I will not do that." Xu Beifang also explained his thoughts.

If that really happens, it will become another G2.

Although Xu Beifang's personal ability is definitely stronger than Breathing, this kind of fighting style is unnecessary.

The room fell silent for a moment. This topic was a bit heavy as it concerned the team's playing style. Everyone was thinking about how to solve this problem.

"If you don't want to play this way, there is actually another way." Coach Xiaoxi said, "That is to give up your command position in the early stage. You just need to find a way to get information for the team and get the first kill in your position. Then you can take over the command in the mid-term and make personnel adjustments for the team."

The two roles of command and breakthrough may naturally conflict.

After all, most of the commands are directed in a reasonable direction.

As for the breakthrough player, all he needs to think about is getting the kill.

The command position did not affect Xu Beifang's shooting skills, but it affected his thinking.

At the beginning, TC wanted Xu Beifang to completely give up his role as a commander and just become a star player like he was in the past.

However, Xu Beifang’s mid-term decision was indeed brilliant.

TC was dumbfounded by how quickly he processed the information.

So after considering it, he just asked Xu Beifang to relinquish some of the rights for the preliminary arrangements and let someone else share some of the pressure with him.

In this way, Xu Beifang can go out and look for opportunities more bravely, and others can also benefit from Xu Beifang's strong personal abilities.

Even if Xu Beifang was killed in the early firefight, he could still transform into a fountain commander and exert his power of mid-term decision-making.

"In fact, I'm not giving you all the rights to make arrangements in the early stages. You can still communicate directly if you have any ideas, just like before." TC said, "I still want you to become the star player who leads the pace."

There was no problem with the others either. JKS and NIKO came here just to see Xu Beifang.

Elige is a rifleman who doesn't consume many resources, so he doesn't have any thoughts on this.

Not to mention Danking, they are all brothers.

As a commander, Xu Beifang has no problem commanding a team.

But his personal abilities are outstanding, which leads to some conflicts.

The trade-off between a T0-level star player and a T1-level commander.

TC finally chose to have it all, turning Xu Beifang back into a T0-level star player, while retaining his excellent commanding abilities.

"Then who will take over the early command now?" Tiedan asked the most important question.

TC turned to look at Elige.

Brother Ji immediately said nervously: "I can't do it."

"Brother Ji doesn't like to talk normally, and he's also a stress-prone person. He often becomes withdrawn during fights, so Brother Ji definitely won't do."

"JKS is even more introverted, and he has never been a commander."

"Danking just passed..."

Tiedan immediately shouted: "Hey, hey, hey, why did you pass me?"

TC said expressionlessly, "Then can you do it?"

"I... I really can't seem to do it." Danking already has a lot of problems of his own, and if he accepts the right to command, he will probably be overloaded within two minutes.

Everyone's eyes turned to NIKO.

NIKO said helplessly: "Do I have any choice?"

"You can refuse."

TC smiled and said, "No."

"That's all, let's let conductor NIKO return to the stage!" NIKO said with a smile.

PS: Inspiration for a new book has been popping up like crazy in the past two days, so I have been busy polishing the beginning of the new book. I estimate that it will be ready for publication after five or six revisions, so the new book will be sent out around the 15th.

However, there are two ideas that I haven't thought through yet. Can you give me some suggestions?

One is CS+Baby flow, the type of real genius boy. (Deduction 1)

The other one is Lao Deng CS, the protagonist and NIKO are three-box brothers, Lao Deng is back. (Deduction 2)
