CS: The Last Dance, a Dance That Leads to Professional Success

Chapter 9 is no different from Jackz, wait, holy crap!

In the training match, both sides ban maps first.

After a round of mutual banning and selection, the three maps finally locked in were Infernal Town, Mirage City, and Scorching Sand City.

It's worth noting that professional training matches are different from official matches.

In official matches, the first 16 rounds are won to secure a victory, but in practice matches, a full 30 rounds must be played. This is because the purpose of practice matches is to refine teamwork, test lineups, and assess tactical execution.

The reason for not distinguishing between them is to win or lose.

A fixed 30 rounds ensures that each half of the match is played to a full 15 rounds, allowing both the attacking and defending sides ample time to practice and test their skills.

Figure 1: Purgatory Town

Meng Lang's proficiency with this map is average; it's presentable in competitions, but that's about it.

It's nowhere near as proficient as his Sand City II and now the Desert City.

Looking at the whole chart, Meng Lang's K/D ratio is 23/13.

It seems alright, but after playing 30 rounds, 23 kills is really just okay. The player with the most kills in this game was blameF from the opposing team A, who got 35 kills and a rating of 1.57, the highest in the game.

He was undoubtedly the MVP of the game.

In fact, if scrims were to have a winner and loser, G2 would have already lost the first game.

Not far behind, Coach XTQZZZ, who had been watching from the sidelines, wrote down three keywords in his phone's notepad as he looked at Meng Lang's back.

Conservative, stable, firepower. Not bad.

At the same time, the atmosphere at Team A's training camp was quite relaxed.

"EZEZ!"

"Is that Dark guy here to try out for the Jackz position with G2?"

"It seems to be a Chinese player who was transferred down from EG in North America."

"His performance seemed average, not much different from Jackz's!"

"."

The five members of Team A gave their comments with smiles and laughter.

However, this relaxed atmosphere was about to end.

The second image is of a desert city.

After 30 rounds, Meng Lang achieved a K/D ratio of 44/15 and an ADR of a terrifying 107, securing multiple kills and kill streaks in several consecutive rounds.

This completely stunned the coach and several teammates!
It's important to know that in professional esports, everyone's positioning is predetermined.

Meng Lang's attacking team plays a support role, focusing on throwing items to support his cousin and Lao Ni, the two breakthrough attackers. They do not have the first right to engage in combat.

When playing as the CT, Meng Lang was the primary defender in Zone B.

In the B bomb site of Mirage, you often encounter bomb rushes. It's common to fight outnumbered and wait for your teammates to come back to defend. The pressure is immense, and you can easily get killed.

When the opponent doesn't attack B, it's easy to not see anyone for the entire game.

Simply put, whether on the T or CT side, Meng Lang's position is more support-oriented, the kind that doesn't easily get kills, yet he still managed to get the highest number of kills in the entire game.

When playing T,
Meng Lang often loses all his items and his teammates die, but as long as he has the AK he got in the previous game, he can rush in and rely on his terrifying sudden stops, positioning, and sweeping spins to get multiple kill streaks.

As for attacking the CT's main defense of the B bomb site...

He consistently manages to kill at least one enemy during T's offensive phase, then protects himself and stalls until his teammates return to defend.

Sometimes when you're in a good rhythm, you don't even need your teammates; you can just pick off the enemy directly.

Team A was forced to save their weapon after Meng Lang's quad kill, and subsequently gave up on attacking Team B, instead playing Team A for several rounds in a row.

Meng Lang had to retreat to defend, which cost him many more kills; otherwise, he could have gotten even more.

Of course, even so, Meng Lang, who had the highest rating, was still the MVP of this game!

"Guys! Well done!" Little Li clenched his fist.

"I knew I hadn't misjudged you." Old Ni smiled with great relief.

"Bro, your AK firepower is incredible!" my cousin exclaimed dramatically. "How about you take my position next round?" "No, no, no."

Meng Lang chuckled and waved his bandaged right hand. "It's all thanks to everyone's good play! We just got lucky and took a few extra hits. Let's give G2 a taste of their own medicine in picture three!"

Not far behind, Coach XTQZZZ, who was watching from the sidelines with a thermos cup in hand, wrote down three keywords in his notebook again as he looked at Meng Lang's back.

Humble! Can twist rope! Firepower...is off the charts!
Next, in picture three, is the scorching sand city, which is Meng Lang's signature Sand City 2.

"In the next map, play at your own pace. You don't need to stay there all the time. You can be more proactive. I will give you instructions and support as needed."

In esports, skill is definitely king.

Thanks to Meng Lang's outstanding performance in the second game of Desert City B District defense, Xiao Lizi spoke gently to Meng Lang as soon as the third game of Sand City 2 started.

“Okay, I understand.” Meng Lang nodded.

He certainly lived up to that trust.

On the map Sand 2, Meng Lang, who started the round for CT, showed his Tsar side.

Despite not always having the bonus from his signature AK weapon, Meng Lang still demonstrated the talent of this 18-year-old prodigy from CNCS, thanks to the effects of Spider Sense and bandages suppressing his hand injuries.

It's worth noting that his [Reaction] stat was once among the world's top tier, but his [Consciousness] stat of only 71 was once a liability.

But now, the Spider Sense has made up for the lack of consciousness in "another way".

In some cases, he can even "see" danger.

Team A opted for a bomb attack on B at the start of the T side – they knew Meng Lang was primarily defending B, and after their previous loss on B in Mirage, they wanted to get revenge at the start of this game.

At the start, T harasses A short, then smokes at B gate forty seconds!

A barrage of RUSHB bombs!

"Someone's here at point B!"

Upon hearing footsteps at B2, Meng Lang, who was guarding B site with dual pistols, immediately informed his teammates and then threw smoke grenades towards the entrance of B site to buy time!

"Hold on!"

"Everyone, get back to defend B!"

Old Ni, who had gone to A University to gather information at the start, quickly called out, and his cousin, the kid, and others also quickly prepared to return to defend.

However, before the CT team even reached point B, they heard the sound of two guns firing "rat-a-tat-tat"!

Suddenly, a waterfall-like display appeared in the upper right corner of the screen.

[Dark uses dual Beretta weapons to headshot and kill blameF!]

[Dark kills Xyp9x with a headshot using dual Beretta weapons!]

【.】

One!
two!

Three?

What? Dark is still killing?

Four!

Five!

Until the last kill spawns!

Pentakill Ace!

Behind him, Coach XTQZZZ suddenly put down his thermos and stood up, his eyes widening in shock and surprise.
He practically witnessed Meng Lang, a young player not even 18 years old, use his lightning-fast dual-gun positioning to sweep away and melt all five Ts who had sped up from B site!

Young people's hands are so fast!
But that's not the main point!
The key point is that Team A, a team known for its use of items, planned their speed-up rush to B – they used a flashbang before the smoke appeared, and then used another flashbang the instant the smoke appeared, essentially a double flashbang into B.

The first one is designed to trick you into turning around and dodging!
The second flash will make you completely white!

However, Coach XTQZZZ was shocked to see that the moment Meng Lang turned around and took the first flash, and the camera zoomed back, he seemed to suddenly shudder!
The next moment, as if someone was fighting him for control of the mouse, Meng Lang's view was suddenly pulled back, and he managed to land a second flash at the absolute limit!
This led to the shocking scene of him melting five enemies with dual pistols, sweeping and turning the B entrance into a "food outlet"!

But this
Isn't that a bit outrageous?!
