CSGO: This player is too persuasive!

Chapter 493 53. No ECO, no fun

The score entered the second half with 8:4, which made the COL members in a good mood.

Although Anubis is an offensive map, their level on this map is not very high, but they can still gain an advantage, which is very good.

And if they could win the pistol round successfully and keep the rhythm going well, they might be able to take down NAVI in one wave.

NIKO flexed his wrist and said in the voice chat: "Let's play well in the second half of the pistol round and try to increase the score so that NAVI can take it away directly!"

Xu Beifang stretched, glanced at NIKO, and said nothing.

NIKO felt that he could finish the game smoothly in one go, but judging from the data and actual feelings, the NAVI guys played the pistol round too well.

Systematic teams play a huge role in dealing with simple and direct games such as pistol rounds.

However, whether we can win or not will only be known after a specific fight.

After a short half-time break, the two sides switched camps and entered the second half of the confrontation.

In the second half, COL came to the defensive side. After careful consideration, they made a simultaneous forward push of the Black Room and Gate A, trying to disrupt NAVI's opening default and try to get the first kill.

But NAVI's default discipline was too good. They were always moving when setting up their guns in the early stage. Once they noticed COL's movement, they immediately retreated to the cover, making COL's first wave of forward pressure in vain.

Then Leo used the information he got to infiltrate the middle lane, and immediately carried out a wave of link and clamp B actions.

In the B area, JKS and Elige were surrounded and only achieved a result of 1 for 2. The subsequent defense of the trio at point A was not good, and NAVI won the pistol round again.

"NAVI is too strong in pistol rounds." NIKO couldn't help but complain, "They won three pistol rounds in these two maps. It feels like their strength in pistol rounds is not on the same level as their rifle rounds."

Xu Beifang picked up the tactical paper in front of the keyboard and read out the data: "In the past three months, their winning rate in the first half of the pistol rounds was 63%, and their winning rate in the second half of the pistol rounds was 55%. Well, this is the data for the competition against the first-tier teams."

"So strong." Elige was a little surprised. "I remember that in 2019, NAVI's pistol round win rate was the lowest among the first-tier teams. It seemed to be only 20%. This made me think that they were very bad at pistols."

"It's normal. After all, it's not a NAVI anymore." Xu Beifang also recalled his past memories. When he played against NAVI in 19, he could easily win the pistol round. NAVI would always lose in ways you couldn't imagine.

However, from 2019 to now, NAVI has changed two groups of people, and it is normal to have such huge changes.

"But it's good this way. They played well, and we will gain more from the subsequent review."

Now that things have come to this, we can only resort to spiritual victory.

After losing the pistol round, COL chose to try a forced gunfight. Except for the long distance in area A of this map, it was easy to use short guns in other positions.

But they still couldn't get this point. NAVI's academic style of play and game discipline are really good.

In general, when a team encounters an opponent with no money, their players will always have very confident thoughts.

For example, "The opponent has a pistol, and I have an AK, why should I be afraid of them?", "The opponent has no money, I should go out and kill a few more, don't let my teammates kill them all."

But NAVI won’t, they are standard academics and won’t have any crazy thoughts in this round.

Even though COL made some special designs and finally killed some people through cooperation, they could only protect their guns in a 2V2 situation.

However, although they saved the two spears, they were unable to turn the tables in the following economic game.

The score has unknowingly reached 8:7, and NAVI is gradually narrowing the gap between the two sides.

The game quickly entered the first rifle round.

NAVI's idea was very simple. During the half-time break, B1ad3 had already seen what COL was up to.

Although COL scored more points in the first half, too many rounds were won by relying on the endgame, which proved that COL was not very proficient in this map.

Since you are not very skilled, we will use your weaknesses to counter you.

Therefore, when entering the first rifle round, NAVI directly carried out the A-area bombing in the second time.

The idea is very simple, which is to execute explosive bombs with you and force COL to have a loophole in an emergency state.

This point was exactly as B1ad3 expected. When the bomb exploded at point A, Danking and NIKO in the middle lane both missed the timing. Danking was caught by Leo and killed instantly when he was about to retract the camera. NIKO behind the middle door was also detected and was killed instantly by Leo who took advantage of the situation.

Xu Beifang and Elige completed a 2-for-4 exchange at point A, showing a top-level cooperation.

Unfortunately, JKS was too far away, and in the final 1v1 situation he didn't have the razor blade, so he could only save the sniper rifle for Danking.

However, in the next point, Danking got a triple kill in the middle lane and B zone during NAVI's bomb explosion, helping COL get the first score after the side change.

The two sides then engaged in a tense confrontation.

The score is constantly changing.

9:8
9:10
10:10
10:11
COL called a tactical timeout.

"Calm down, guys." Coach Xiaoxi said thoughtfully, "I think we have been led into NAVI's rhythm. Our proficiency in this map is indeed not as good as NAVI's, but improvement is something we need to consider after the game."

"Now we have to try every possible way to beat them and bring the game into our comfort zone."

Their arrangements in these rounds were a bit too rough and relied too much on improvisation.

But after a wave of bombs from NAVI, they had very little room to operate.

Xu Beifang pinched his finger joints and said, "How about I become a catfish?"

'Catfish' is a special term, which means that he can disrupt the opponent's early arrangements in various ways.

This is also a way of playing that he is very good at.

Coach Xiaoxi nodded and said, "Try to play what we are more familiar with, so that we can find problems in our formation system during the review. Otherwise, if we just play by default, there won't be much to improve even after the review."

"But we don't have much money left." NIKO pursed his lips, "Should we give up the match point?"

"Let's go ahead. We'll use all our guns and bullets to try to force overtime. If we get one point, we'll use Desert Eagle to look for an opportunity. It would be even better if we can pick up an AK to keep our gun."

But looking at his teammates' 'crooked' guns, Xu Beifang thought for a moment: "Let's make a small plan. NIKO, you go to Gate A and throw a cigarette, so that the other side will think we are going to force us."

"Then we'll send one person out to clear the B point and get the information. Let him go out and deliver it. If there are many people outside B on the other side, they should come over directly to look for opportunities. Let's try to replace a few of them."

The configuration for this point is too bad. The only good news is that the opponent's economy is not good either.

If they could knock out three spears, NAVI wouldn't be able to go all guns and ammunition when they reached match point.

The tactical timeout ended and they quickly started moving.

"The timeout is over. If COL loses this point again, the game will go to match point." Leon Kai said as he looked at the game UI, "But now it seems that they have no means to stop NAVI."

"At the beginning, COL took the initiative to try a wave. He cleared B with a flash bomb. Wang Defa's sniper shot missed. Brother Ji felt that he had seized the opportunity, but he didn't expect that there was a bodyguard IM standing nearby!"

"IM took Brother Ji away directly." Lion Kai took a breath, "Oh, this was supposed to be a turning point that could change the situation, but he was caught directly because of his unconventional approach."

Under Xu Beifang's command, Danking in the middle lane directly fired a smoke bomb to block the bandits' advance.

But in fact, after giving the cigarettes, NIKO and Danking were both walking towards area B.

"In the second time, COL chose to gamble in the B area. NAVI got a kill in the B area. The A area and the middle road were blocked. They chose to simplify their thinking and prepare to go directly to the match point."

"But the CT force has already reinforced the defense. Is there any explanation for this wave?"

IM stood on the platform outside B and began to slowly preview the regular points.

In this wave, he has to collect information for his teammates. As long as he gets the position of any one person, the subsequent teammates will directly charge in.

He quietly began to aim, but was not at all wary of the area directly above the bomb point pillar.

He didn't know that Xu Beifang and JKS were there, using their armored double frames to gather information.

Xu Beifang kept swaying left and right above JKS's head. This movement enabled him to stop firing as soon as he saw someone.

He was quietly holding the rifle, and suddenly he saw a bandit's head appear right above the crosshairs. He immediately raised the crosshairs.

"boom!"

[Nice killed IM with a headshot using the Desert Eagle]

"Two people are surrounding point B!" IM also saw Xu Beifang at the moment he was killed, but he was completely unable to react.

But the problem is not big. According to the information feedback from the middle lane and point A, there are at most two people in area B.

Now that both of them have secured their positions, they only need to group up and fire to solve the problem. Leo didn't feel anything strange and directly directed his teammates to push forward.

The police smoke, link smoke, and blind-corner fire of the bomb site, combined with a large number of flash bombs, a wave of frontal explosive attacks was directly launched.

After Xu Beifang defeated IM, he didn't want to cancel the double stand. After all, it was quite difficult to pre-aim from this position. He wanted to use the double stand to take another shot, but the opponent's flash bomb was too white, leaving him no chance to operate.

He could only release the double frame and JKS to find their respective positions.

"I'm hiding in the police's cigarette pack. If you guys start a direct fight, I'll pull me out to help." NIKO reminded.

Danking said, "I can help you hook it, but they didn't give the black room any smoke. There should be someone underwater. I need to check underwater first."

Xu Beifang and JKS also stood in position and tried to find a position, but NAVI did not give them any chance and directly forced them out of the bunker with a fire.

"JKS used a cigarette to force both men out. Beizi knelt down and crippled two of them with three shots. JKS followed up with a shot and killed one. Danking used FN57 to kill the lone bandit in the dark room!"

"He also got an AK47. What's the situation with this one? Will there be any follow-up?"

After Xu Beifang saw Tiedan get the kill in the black room, he excitedly reminded him: "There is still one with low health who is still alive! Now it's 2 vs 3, there's a chance!"

Danking did not answer, but set up a wide-angle camera in the dark room, and then peeked to the right as if he had thought of something.

He saw a sniper rifle pointed directly at him in his field of vision, and he immediately pulled the trigger.

"Da da da!"

[Danking killed w47nderful with a headshot using an AK0]

Danking was well aware that he had no armor at this point, so after tearing apart Wang Defa's sniper rifle with his bare hands, he immediately pulled back.

NIKO kept staring at Xu Beifang's screen beside him while smoking a cigarette. When he saw the other bandits chasing Danking, he knew he had to take action. This might be one of the few chances he had.

Seeing NIKO's action, Xu Beifang and others broke out in a cold sweat.

Because there is still one person on the other side who has not revealed his position. If he were to set off a cigarette at this time, the point would be lost.

However, luck favors the brave after all.

The moment NIKO was pulled out, the remaining bandits appeared in his field of vision.

A person was peeked at the column in front of the black room, waiting for Danking to make another move. Another person was at the entrance of area B, also looking at the black room.

'There was a communication error!'

Xu Beifang realized that this was an opportunity!
NIKO also seized the opportunity. He first pulled the crosshairs to the bandit at the entrance of area B and opened fire with the Desert Eagle.

"boom!"

[NIKO killed Aleksib with a headshot using the Desert Eagle]

The moment he got the kill, he adjusted his crosshairs to hit the last one.

But as soon as he pulled the crosshairs over, he saw that the other side had also turned his head, and the two sides engaged in a head-on exchange of fire.

"boom!"

"Da da da!"

There was a burst of gunfire in Area B. Xu Beifang, Elige and others were all feeling a little depressed when they saw NIKO being killed.

But suddenly, gunshots were heard in the dark room.

"NIKO came out of the smoke and seized the opportunity, and shot Leo to death, but JL reacted quickly, and turned around and killed NIKO directly. After all, he had no armor, what!!"

At this time, the kill information appeared in the upper right corner at the same time, making them ecstatic.

[JL killed NIKO with a headshot using an AK47]

[Danking+Nice killed JL with AK47]

"Danking, he pulled it out and reloaded his gun at this time!!"

Brother Shuijing shouted in disbelief: "No, this can also be turned over!"

Leon Kai excitedly concluded: "This is really awesome! Danking's timing for the last shot was amazing!"

"This time, Danchu finally stood up. Everyone played a crucial role in this game. It's awesome, brothers!"

"The armorless ECO made a comeback. They relied on the early Wei Mo design and the performance of the players to successfully make a comeback!"

He thought about it carefully: "This Beifang has a strategy. At the beginning, he let Elige go out to give up, and with the smoke of NIKO and Danking, he directly tricked the enemy into the B area. Then he got the first kill and made enough hooks."

"Even if the opponent forced the ball in, he and JKS dealt enough damage, and Danking and NIKO also played well in the endgame."

“Everyone in COL is really working hard, it’s so interesting!”

[This COL is simply not good at ECO and doesn’t know how to play]

[Two former G2 members brought the corporate culture with them]

[Now COL Pistol Brigade]

[I declare that Danking has obtained the right to be free from criticism for one day]

[This NAVI exploded! ]

[Beifang made me laugh to death. He had no expression on his face during his highlight moment, but his teammates played a great role in the atmosphere.]

In the COL player seat, Xu Beifang, who thought he had lost the round, was instantly filled with ecstasy when he saw Danking successfully make a follow-up shot.

He shouted excitedly: "NIIIICE!!! The Armorless Desert Eagle made a comeback, we did it!!!"

NIKO turned to look at Danking: "That was a great shot! It's the key brother!"

The usually stern JKS smiled: "Everyone played so well. Now NAVI is in a difficult situation."

Although he was praised a lot as a funny guy, it was still rare for him to get recognition from his teammates. Danking couldn't help but feel happy.

"I let you guys carry me every day. My fans are almost gone. I have to stand up and show my strength no matter what."

Xu Beifang high-fived his two teammates next to him: "NAVI is in trouble now. Their economy has exploded. We can only play harder for the next two points."

Although they had been losing before, NAVI’s economy was not particularly good.

This resulted in NAVI's economy exploding the moment the spear game was overturned.

NAVI's economy was directly reset to an average of 1400 yuan, plus the economy from the kills in the previous point, it was only about 1700 yuan.

"But we also have to be careful. We were able to turn the tables with the unarmored Desert Eagle, so NAVI naturally has a chance as well. Try not to give them any chances, and everyone should be more steady."

In the next minute, NAVI directly launched a strong attack. They tried to launch a bomb in the B area, hoping to place the grenade pack.

But the result was a failure. JKS got a quad kill in this point, which shattered NAVI's plan.

At this time, the score was 12:11, and COL took the lead and got the match point.

What made NAVI painful was that after entering the match point, they still had no economy.

COL knew that the opponent was using a pistol, so he did not fight particularly aggressively, but just exchanged props in an orderly manner.

In the mid-game, Elige and Danking each got a kill in the middle lane.

At 40 seconds, NAVI chose to make a silent contact with A, but Xu Beifang used a clean and neat gun suppression and killed 2.9 of them.

Other COL members rushed over to take the last kill.

The final frame froze and the score was locked at 13:11.

This also means that COL defeated NAVI 3-2 in this BO0 match and successfully advanced!
