CS: You are only 16 years old, and you want me to make a comeback?

Chapter 357 Could it be that the rifle version of Young is the stat monster?

"The score is now 16-6. The Falcons dominated C9 in the second half with an unstoppable force!!"

The English commentator shouted from the commentary booth: "Congratulations to Falcon for winning the first game of this BO3 series."

The audience erupted in enthusiasm, and the atmosphere inside the Rio Olympic Stadium reached new heights, with Falcon supporters above the stands excitedly waving Falcon logos.

"Falcons' performance in the second half was completely out of C9's control. They may have been full of fighting spirit after the first half, but they didn't expect that the Falcons wouldn't give them any chances in the second half."

"NIKO and Young combined their efforts to demonstrate an iron-willed defense against C9!!"

[This old nun is in really good shape today.]

He's like a war god on the banana road.

My cousin finally managed to splurge today.

[sh1ro is helpless; he fought Ah Le to a standstill, but still lost.]

[That's alright, this is already an improvement for C9.]

Amid cheers from the crowd, the Falcon team members removed their headphones.

"Well played." Coach NEO walked over from behind the group. "Don't give them any more chances at the amusement park next."

"If you ask me, we should still choose the town. Look at Niko Banana Road, the other side can't beat us at all."

With his hands behind his head, he leaned back comfortably in his gaming chair.

He finished the game with a score of 7/6, and he was lying there looking very comfortable.

I actually rode in a trailer truck today.

"Goodbye," NIKO said. "I became famous for losing a Major on the map 'Small Town'."

At this moment, NIKO shouted sarcastically, "But look the time..."

Jiang Yang looked at NIKO speechlessly from the side, "Dude, you've already said everything, what am I supposed to say?"

NIKO has taken the path of the skewers, leaving the skewers with little room to maneuver.

NIKO smiled and said, "So let me tell you, there's no pressure about the amusement park next. I have no regrets about this amusement park map."

"It's good to have this mindset," NEO comforted him. "Keep this attitude and try to leave work early."

Death Park was C9's chosen map, but they performed quite well on it. Moreover, on this map where sniper rifles are effective, they have two strategies to deal with it.

The pressure has now shifted to C9.

In the C9 player seat.

C9's coach, Groove, paced behind the players, his expression grave.

“We rushed our attack just now; we need to slow down sometimes.” He frowned, twirling a pen in his hand. “They prepared well for the banana lane, and Niko’s defensive play was indeed excellent.”

"I actually played pretty well in the first half, but then I suddenly lost my rhythm," sh1ro said. "I was at a disadvantage in the early game, so it was very difficult to play. The next map, Amusement Park, is more suited to sniper rifles, where I can be more effective with my sniper rifle..."

Groove frowned and asked, "The Falcons are playing very aggressively on defense right now. Young will always try to find an opportunity to get the first kill. We need to be more conservative in the early game."

sh1ro nodded seriously, "We will. When it comes to default, there aren't many teams that can beat us."

Since the beginning of the online era, the overall level of the CIS region has been advancing rapidly, and the default level of the entire region has been continuously improving.

The source of this default level improvement is the default level that was discontinued in C9 at the time.

C9's default performance is now up to par, but they still rely on that one trick.

"The amusement park is my strong map, and I believe we can fight back on this next map as well," sh1ro said seriously, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

……

After a brief halftime break, the match moved to the server shown in Figure 2.

Falcons vs Cloud9
Map: Death Amusement Park
T: nafany, sh1ro, Ax1Le, interZ, Hobbit
CT: hooxi, young, NIKO, JKS, device
(The Death Amusement Park is reporting locations; change the graffiti wall to ABC and the green box to a trash can.)
The pistol round begins.

C9's map selection, on this map that leans towards the defensive side, naturally saw Falcon choose to start with the police.

“3A2B.” Hooxi looked at JKS, “I’ll throw you a pair of pistols. Go to the oil drum area later. If they bring up B, I’ll flash back for you.”

He then looked at the three players at point A and said, "You three at point A can be a little more aggressive and play more proactively in the early game."

Seeing this, Jiang Yang looked at NIKO and said, "Then let's just push straight out from the front of A-field."

Device said, "Then I'm not in a hurry. I'll just listen around the middle lane and see how things go before going out to help you guys."

After the preparation time was over, everyone set off.

Jiang Yang led NIKO and ran wildly towards A University, with NIKO close behind.

……

"OK, the pistol round of map two begins. C9 has two sets of ammo. We set up an A default and all five of us are running around the map. Ah Le, who is in the first position, rushes into the amusement park, while the others remain at the terrorist spawn point."

Ma Xixi took a breath. "C9 played very cautiously, but this time the Falcon made a 3A push forward, and A came straight to cause trouble!"

Jiang Yang led the way out from A University and immediately located the position of a bandit. "Slide down!"

While rapidly reporting enemy positions, Jiangyang's USP accurately fired in short bursts.

Ah Le set up his gun next to the slide; he hadn't expected Falcon to play so wildly right away.

He's alone in the amusement park now, holding a Glock gun, and can only stand up and shake it to try his best to fire.

However, at this gunfight distance, Glock still struggled too much.

Not to mention that he was in a local 1v2 situation.

The others in C9 wanted to help Ah Le, but it was too late.

Ah Le fought back with Glock, but ultimately couldn't defeat Jiang Yang's USP.

Young+NIKO used a USP to headshot and kill Ax1Le.

After Jiang Yang used his USP to kill Ah Le, he saw several more bandits pouring into the amusement park. He tried to find and kill them, but he ran out of his three bullets and failed to get a second headshot.

Jiang Yang quickly jumped behind cover. Fortunately, at this gunfight distance, it was still quite difficult for the opponent to kill him without a headshot.

"Take it easy, take it easy." NIKO pulled back Jiang Yang, who was being too aggressive. Falcon had already gained a numerical advantage, and their health wasn't very high, so there was no need to be so reckless.

Upon seeing this, the device also retreated simultaneously.

With the departure of the A-team duo, he was left somewhat isolated in the mid lane.

"My cousin fought and retreated. He wasn't chased to death immediately. At this distance, the bandits couldn't catch him easily, so we had to play it safe for now."

Ma Xixi analyzed, "Although the CT got the first kill, the guy with the gadget didn't die, which is the best news for the terrorists."

"We still have five items in hand. If we time the bombs well, our chances of winning are still quite good."

Jiang Yang immediately retreated to the bunker, while NIKO stayed at the A-level stone slab, hopping around to observe.

After careful consideration, C9 ultimately decided to adopt the opening tactic of a one-shot rush at A site.

They invaded University A immediately and ran into NIKO.

NIKO saw the information about the far point of A during his first jump.

Taking advantage of the long distance, he jumped again, shouting, "The bomber is here too! I'm heading towards the bomb site."

Seeing this, Jiang Yang immediately said, "You can put the buns down now. We'll protect A-Small's side."

With one minute remaining, if NIKO sees the information that the enemy has a lot of people at A site, then it's highly likely that they'll unleash a bomb attack at A site.

In this situation, they will most likely get the full amount of items if they stand at the point of attack.

Giving up the gun positions at the bomb site and taking over the counter-attack from A short and the area below the platform would actually be a better option.

As soon as Jiang Yang gave the order, NIKO and the others immediately began to take action.

However, the two players at point B haven't moved yet, because if C9 plays a bit too aggressively, they could still take an absurd route like mid-sewer-construction site-B site again in a second.

The CTs at Death Park are quick to rotate back. The formation at point A is currently in good shape, so there's no need for the two guys at point B to give up the point early.

While Jiang Yang was near the billboard at University A, and the map seemed to be in a state of temporary silence, he glanced at University A and spotted two bandits in the university's passageway.

"There are so many people from A University!!" Jiang Yang shouted quickly in the voice chat, then without any intention of engaging in a gunfight, he immediately ran off the stage.

At this moment, the bandits' props also started raining at point A. Jiang Yang quickly moved to a blind spot off the stage. There was a good spot there where, if he just looked down, the stage would be completely invisible.

After Jiang Yang took cover, he picked up his USP and started shooting straight past the point.

The bandits' objective was clear: everyone would break out from A University, and with fire from the car engine and smoke from the trash cans, their attack would head straight for the bank.

As long as they can take down the bank, they can make the most of the crossover between the bank and A University, even if they are outnumbered, they can still make the most of this defensive strategy.

A barrage of flashbangs cleared the way, and this time, Nafany, the commander, led the charge—a long-standing Russian tradition.

The device was on the A small passage, and as the first line of fire against the A main passage, it immediately began to help with the counter-battery.

But the bandits' continuous flashbangs turned his screen completely white. After regaining his vision, he tried to peek and fire again, but after a series of peeks, he failed to get a single kill. Instead, he was hit on the head by Glock.

At this moment, the device could only fight and retreat, temporarily relinquishing its firing position.

After successfully headshotting device, C9 was ecstatic. Nafany excitedly shouted, "Charge into the bomb site! A site is low on health, hold your position!!"

He led the charge toward the bag, with sh1ro close behind.

Jiang Yang was standing in a corner below the stage when he saw two bandits appear in his field of vision in an instant.

Jiang Yang picked up the USP. His long-term basic training had made him quite adept at headshots. In addition, the bomb site was almost a flat surface, so he only needed to move his crosshair horizontally.

In an instant, he saw two bandits rush out. He used his USP as a sniper rifle and fired a shot to the right.

"Snapped!"

Young used a USP to headshot and kill Nafany.

After firing the shot, Jiang Yang immediately ducked and crouched down.

After the initial firefight at A site, he only had enough health left to survive two bullets at most, so Jiang Yang's actions were mostly focused on self-preservation.

After receiving the toll with one shot, he immediately crouched down. sh1ro's angle was limited, and he didn't see Jiang Yang in the corner the moment he pulled out his gun. He raised his gun again to fire, but Jiang Yang had already ducked and disappeared.

Seeing this, sh1ro quickly adjusted his gun position, placing the crosshair towards A small, to prevent device from coming out and kiting.

But just as he had this idea, he saw Jiang Yang, who was hiding in the audience, suddenly pop his head out again, and sh1ro quickly dragged the mouse to the right.

But Jiang Yang's shot was much faster than he had expected.

sh1ro had barely formed this idea when his head was shattered by a bullet.

"Snapped!"

Young used a USP to headshot and kill sh1ro.

"The device didn't receive the first batch of toll fees, but what about my cousin who lives nearby?"

"My cousin took down one and immediately ducked to dodge, but then suddenly he raised his head and used a spring-loaded headshot to instantly kill sh1ro!!" Ma Xixi was shocked.

Seeing this, Device also pulled out from A and grabbed the opponent's side to finish them off.

NIKO then emerged from the side and shot the last Hobbit dead.

C9's accelerated bombing run at A site ultimately failed at the last moment before reaching the bomb site.

"C9 still wanted to take down the police, but they had to kill people first. The Falcon's three generals wiped them all out!" Ma Xixi exclaimed. "My cousin in the audience is invincible."

"That dragon raising its head is so cool!"

……

The phone screen is showing a replay of a spectacular kill.

"Wow!!! That was such a smooth move. He killed one, immediately crouched to avoid the line of fire, and then stood up and took down sh1ro with another shot." A customer in the breakfast shop gasped for breath of soy milk. "This cousin is like he wrote the script. It's so smooth."

"His reaction time is indeed very fast." Mr. Jiang nodded in agreement, gradually beginning to appreciate the charm of the game his son was playing.

CSGO is a game with a very low barrier to entry for spectators because the game's visuals are very intuitive, and it's easy to feel the players' individual skills, the tension in their aiming perspective, and the speed of their reactions.

With quick aiming, accurate positioning, and smooth movements, even a layman can easily understand it.

Jiang's father asked with some curiosity, "Is Young very impressive now?"

He was curious to know roughly where his son stood in his area of ​​expertise.

The customer in front of him seemed surprised by his question.

However, he also kindly expressed his opinion: "He is currently the strongest professional player in the entire industry, at least in my mind, without exception."

“He has great talent, his playing style is exciting, and he has the leadership qualities on the field. Most importantly, he is only 17 years old and has unlimited potential.”

Noticing that the breakfast shop owner had only recently fallen into the trap, he explained, "You can sense that Young and his Falcon are the challengers."

"But in reality, the other teams in this tournament are the real challengers."

As they were talking, they saw that the two sides had already started exchanging fire in the second round.

After losing the pistol round, C9 attempted a force buy and rushed B site. However, during this B site rush, JKS and Breath each traded one for one at the front, and device's spray and recoil control secured a triple kill, shattering C9's dream of a force buy comeback.

"Look at this falcon, my cousin and Niko didn't even have to come back to defend it, it was so easy." But he had just finished laughing when his brows furrowed.

"Huh... C9 suddenly became strong??"

C9 failed to plant the bomb in the second round, but continued to engage in gunfights.

They didn't destroy many of the opponent's weapons in the previous round, but Nafany wanted to take advantage of this psychological blind spot to catch them off guard.

C9 managed to pull out two AK47s, along with three Tec-9s and a few items, spending all his resources.

This force buy is a high-risk, high-reward strategy. Although Falcon only lost two submachine guns in the previous round, if C9 successfully force buys in this round, Falcon's economy will explode instantly, and the situation will be reversed.

After failing in the first round, nafany decided to take a gamble.

Bet on the opponent's psychological blind spots, and bet that his teammates won't let him down!

At the start of this round, the entire C9 team grouped up and slowly pushed towards the middle lane, aiming for a silent engagement.

Advancing silently throughout is a pretty good tactic, but it requires a certain level of marksmanship.

The Falcons played relatively conservatively in this point.

They believed C9 should play eco, so they set up a standard default 2A3B formation.

Jiang Yang and NIKO will be in charge of Area A.

NIKO was inside the restroom holding a FAMASK pistol, while Jiang Yang was scouting the locations of A Elementary School and A University from the A University billboard.

NIKO was in a rather tricky spot inside the toilet, quietly using it as a cover to get past the target. Suddenly, he saw someone appear in his crosshair and immediately opened fire. However, sh1ro, who was being shot at, immediately started firing with his AK.

"Da da da!"

sh1ro used an AK47 to headshot and kill NIKO.

"There are too many people in the toilet!! The other side has started strong!" NIKO quickly warned in the voice chat after being killed.

His prediction was a bit off this time. He thought the opponent would be playing eco and would have no armor, so he positioned his crosshair relatively low, aiming to hit the body so the opponent couldn't retaliate.

Unexpectedly, the other party pulled out his entire body, holding an AK in his hand, which completely stunned Old Ni.

“With NIKO’s death, C9 has sped up its operations immediately,” Ma Xixi analyzed. “They’ve already gained an advantage from the Silent Contact, and they’re determined to get this point.”

"Otherwise, the consequences of this forced mobilization might be quite severe!"

Upon hearing NIKO call out the location, Jiang Yang shifted his attention from A University and began to look at A Primary School.

Before they could find any trace of the bandits, a shadow appeared at the corner of A.

Without saying a word, Jiang Yang positioned his crosshair next to the shadow.

A bandit rushed out from the middle of the toilet, directly into Jiang Yang's crosshairs, and into Jiang Yang's stats.

"Da da da!"

Young used an M4A1 to headshot and kill Ax1Le.

Jiang Yang took one out with a single burst of fire, and then he heard footsteps approaching from ahead—the sound of people using the restrooms below the stage.

In this position, the opponent is most likely also armed with a long gun, so he has to adjust his strategy.

Jiang Yang paused briefly in the area of ​​the billboard at University A, quickly pre-aimed, lightly pressed the crouch button, and then pulled out to the left.

The moment Jiang Yang spotted the bandit at the toilet entrance, he lightly tapped the back button and right mouse button, adjusting his position to expose himself while simultaneously making a sudden stop, his crosshair now aimed at the bandit's head.

"Da da da!"

Young used an M4A1 to headshot and kill sh1ro.

"A-level billboard!!" sh1ro, who had just been killed, quickly reported the location, saying with some confusion, "Isn't that a kill?"

Because Ah Le was killed, his attention was focused on the billboard at A University. He opened fire the moment Jiang Yang peeked out, but the first two bullets missed his head, which surprised sh1ro.

While sh1ro was engaged in a gunfight, nafany, who was in the middle of the toilet, also picked up Ah Le's AK and then pulled it out to finish him off.

Just as Jiang Yang took down sh1ro, he saw nafany peek out from the middle of the toilet. Without hesitation, he squatted down and pulled in the opposite direction.

His crouching and aiming maneuver was somewhat illogical, because he was aiming out of cover.

This maneuver completely stunned Nafany. His aim was to pull towards the A site billboard, but Jiang Yang recklessly pulled out from behind cover, causing his aim to momentarily deviate. As a professional player, he quickly corrected his course.

But that one momentary blunder in the game cost him his life.

"Da da da!"

Young used an M4A1 to headshot and kill nafany.

"After NIKO died, my cousin was alone defending A site. He used the billboard at A main as cover to keep peeking and trying to engage in gunfights! C9 was getting wiped out by him!!"

"He's already taken down three people in a row. Hobbit came out with his FAMAS to finish them off, and my cousin strafeeds him another headshot, but he's out of bullets. What a pity!!"

Inside the Rio Olympic Stadium, spectators in the stands were expressing their regret. In their opinion, if Jiang Yang had just one more bullet, C9 would have taken the entire hit.

However, with 3.9 eliminated, Jiang Yang's mission was complete.

Device, who had returned to his defensive position, saw Hobbit trying to retreat. A1 pulled over and fired a shot, easily finishing him off.

interZ pulled him out of the toilet to finish him off, but device didn't even bother to take him with him; he just crouched down and faced him head-on.

interZ was no match for device at all; their frontal damage output was completely wiped out!
"interZ has tried his best, but the frontal attacks are no match for the enemy's turret-like performance. It's simply unplayable."

"C9's bold attempt to force a comeback ultimately failed."

MO laughed from the side, "There's really no good way to deal with this. My cousin just used a one-way cover to pull out and take down C9 one by one. The enemy can't beat him head-on, even though he only has an A1. The stats are too high."

He couldn't help but joke, "Could it be that the rifle version of my cousin is the real stat monster?"

……

The two CSBOY streamers had a great time watching.

But the C9 members were completely overwhelmed.

After the round ended, sh1ro finally couldn't help but complain, "I don't know what happened. I aimed at his head and shot, but the bullet missed."

Nafany helplessly shrugged, "I just saw him wriggling around in my field of vision, and then I was killed."

Originally, they were killed by NIKO in a silent contact, and C9 thought they had won the round.

But to everyone's surprise, Jiang Yang, who was left to defend A alone, stubbornly went out to fight them.

Even more unexpectedly, Jiang Yang used his positional control to divide the battlefield and defeat them one by one.

And he only relied on an A1.

Dude, aren't you a sniper? How come your rifle skills are so good too!
Now something even more troubling has happened: barring any unforeseen circumstances, Young has now acquired the AK47, and their firepower will only become more ferocious.

The initial setup for this amusement park wasn't very good...
