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

Chapter 90: The Numerical Gap! The "Generation Gap" Between Young Players!
6657 live broadcast room.

"Huh? No! Dark! He executed Farlig in the dark corner!" Wanji was speechless for a moment, his voice trembling with extreme surprise.

The director seemed completely taken aback by this counterattack!
Even as the intense battle at bomb site A continued, he immediately switched to a slow-motion replay of the previous skirmish.

In the screen,
Meng Lang's actions were broken down frame by frame:

He accelerated with his knife, reacted instantly to the sound, and made an unbelievable leftward spin jump, precisely stepping on the sandbag to avoid the first wave of gunfire.
While in mid-air, the player has already switched to the sniper rifle, followed by a spin jump to change the landing point and dodge more bullets. The moment of landing, the player makes a small, lightning-fast view turn to avoid possible follow-up fire!

The few maneuvers performed in the blink of an eye perfectly showcased the top-tier positioning control and individual reaction skills in CS:GO!
Then comes the decisive scope-in, with the crosshair suddenly swung within a very small area!
boom!
The sniper rifle roared!

Farlig collapsed to the ground!

While playing the machine and watching the replay, it emitted an amazing bubble sound, which was truly breathtaking.

"Wow—! This is Dark! That incredible reaction speed! That perfect body control! That instant aiming and shooting is terrifying! He even... he even at such close range, almost face to face, and he wasn't even blind-firing! Can you believe he calmly scoped in under those circumstances!!"

"Farlig, Farlig! You tried to trick me! Your idea was good, and your position was tricky! But I'm sorry! Your reaction was a step too slow!"

"And do you know what's the scariest thing right now?" Playing with the machine abruptly changed the subject, his tone becoming more urgent. "The scariest thing is that Dark picked up the AK that Farlig dropped! He has an AK now! I don't need to explain what an AK means in the hands of a player like Dark, do I?!"

"So Wu Zhuge's side hasn't taken down A bomb yet! The situation has instantly turned into a 3v4 defensive standoff! They have to figure out how to check the path first! Because Dark is almost here!"

At this moment, on the Little Flame competition stage.

The atmosphere became increasingly tense.

Before the bomb exploded at point A, Breathing Bro had already called Farlig to throw a smoke grenade through the banana lane to delay them, and then quickly gather at the front of point A.

But who knew that in the previous force buy round, farlig successfully caught Niko and Menglang at the CT's base, securing a crucial double kill and giving the young Dane confidence!
In this wave, farlig fully demonstrated its "subjective initiative".

He didn't completely ignore the command, but chose what he considered a better solution: to ambush and kill the Dark that might flank, eliminating any future trouble, so that when attacking A later, he wouldn't have to worry about the enemy's approach!
To be fair, this idea itself is not a big problem in a game where the situation changes rapidly - after all, players cannot mechanically execute instructions like robots; they must make their own judgments on the spot.

However, the biggest and most fatal mistake Farlig made was that he failed to ambush someone and was instead kicked to death!

Moreover, they also sent away a crucial AK-47!

To make matters worse, this AK was given to Dark, the very person that Breathing Bro had been trying so hard to limit and target from the very beginning!

At that moment, upon hearing his teammate report, "Dark is going to flank! He picked up an AK," Breathing Bro's heart tightened, and his brows furrowed deeply!
Fake!

Are you kidding me?

Live stream room 6657!
The machine operator's speech also sped up dramatically as the situation on the field became increasingly tense, like a machine gun! "Breathing Bro's reaction is quick! He's already had Zyphon watching the way! We have to block Dark!"

"So Dark, your task is to take your time and not rush, because your teammates on the front have stabilized... Wait! Kid missed a shot with the sniper rifle! Are they really stable?!"

"Wow—! Nico Bean! Nicoooz! One shot from the sniper rifle, confidently through the smoke! He sniped the kid m0NESY from the pit!!"

The kill notification appears in the upper right corner of the screen!

CPH Flames-nicoodoz used an AWP to kill G2-m0NESY through smoke.

As soon as the camera focused on the child, he rubbed his forehead in annoyance.

"Is this the second-best sniper in Denmark's new generation? The number one after Device Old Tang! The Danish mixed-smoking bloodline has been activated once again!"

"Now, Breathing Bro is blocking the bomb site and lighting a cigarette! He's trying to push in with the sniper! Time is running out! Wu Zhuge wants to forcefully plant the bomb first!"

"But will G2 really let you plant the bomb so easily?!"

"Old Ni! Old Ni charged straight into the smoke! He transformed into a fearless dump truck! He started sweeping with his MP9! Come on! Come on, let's hurt each other! Let's see who can outlast whom!"

"Oh—! Old Ni! He made it! He killed Breathing Bro who was planting the bomb with a single blow! Wu Zhuge collapsed in the smoke!"

Just then, the director cut the camera.

Although the screen of the Breathing Bro who was killed by Old Ni's cigarette was gray, his brain was working at a rapid pace.

He glanced at the game time; there were about 30 seconds left. It was clear that it was difficult to hold the A bomb site. He immediately made the final call in the voice chat!
Yes!

Wu Zhuge is still trying!
That's the turning point!
Bring your bag and transfer to B!

There's still enough time to give it a shot!
But the biggest problem right now is not time!
By observing the movements of nicoodoz, the only surviving player on the T side, on the minimap, the machine immediately noticed something amiss!
"Whoa! Nico Bean is retreating silently with the grenade pack! Breathing Bro still wants to rotate! He hasn't given up yet! There are 25 seconds left, theoretically... theoretically there is still time! Retreat silently from A1 back to mid! Then rotate to Banana and enter B, the time is very tight, but not impossible!"

"But the biggest problem is! If you want to switch locations at this point, you have to clear out that demon king from the way you came—that Dark one!"

"If we don't eliminate him, turning around will be like walking into a trap!"

"Nieko is now retreating with her A1 sniper rifle, and Zyphon! Zyphon is preparing to clear the middle lane!"

"Zyphon, as a young Danish player, your reactions should be quick, right? Can you clear out the Dark forces coming from the team, just like the kid did yesterday, and carve a bloody path for the team?"

At this moment, under the director's camera, Zyphon, who was quietly moving towards the middle lane, seemed to have noticed someone in the direction of the terrorist spawn!

He didn't hesitate at all.
A quick self-service flash sale!

Then a huge poop came out!
At the same time, Meng Lang, who was advancing rapidly from the uncovered area in the middle lane with an AK in hand, saw the flashbang hit the wall and saw the white light about to explode, and immediately made a textbook-perfect emergency stop and turned his back!

The next second, he judged the position of the opponent's pull almost by feeling and sound. In the instant he turned around, the AK's crosshair had already been thrown to the predicted headline!
Da da da—!
The AK let out a short but deadly roar, and a precise mid-range recoil control burst, as if the bullets had eyes, took down the Zyphon who had just pulled out!

G2-Dark killed CPH-FlamesZyphon with an AK-47

The kill notification appeared coldly in the upper right corner of the screen!

He gasped as he played with the machine! He immediately exclaimed with all his might!
"Holy crap! It can't be cleared! Not a single bit can be cleared!!"

"Dark! He just happened to be on the main road! He made a sudden stop and backflash, and then instantly killed Zyphon who had pulled out!"

"This is the raw power of numerical stats! Even among young talents, there's a clearly visible difference in stats between players!!" Playing with the machine's voice was filled with amazement and a hint of regret.

"Now Little Flame is left with only one lone sniper, nicoodoz! He's in a 1v3 situation with an absolute disadvantage! Dark has completely blocked his way in, so talking about saving his weapon is no longer a realistic option! He can only fight to the death!"

On the G2 pitch.

Morale has reached its peak!
Seeing Meng Lang emerge from the banana lane, Xiao Li not only successfully cut off Zyphon's flanking position at the terrorist spawn point, but also completely blocked the enemy's route to B. Knowing that the enemy only had one sniper rifle left, he immediately shouted excitedly:
"Charge! Charge! Charge! They only have one sniper rifle left! It's probably somewhere between A1 and the boiler room! Take it!!!"

Upon hearing this, Old Ni, who had just transformed into a dump truck and killed Wu Zhuge in the smoke, immediately grabbed his MP9 again, burst out of the smoke at bomb site A, and charged towards A1!

"Nico's beans are still on the shelf! But is it any use? Oh! This flick shot! So fast! Old Nico, who was smoking, was instantly killed by him!"

"As expected of Denmark's second-best sniper! Old Tang's successor! That shot was both fast and accurate!"

"But Li Shen! Captain Li's follow-up shot is here too! Little Li predicted Nicooodoz's position after firing and pulled out his gun in advance!"

"Nico didn't have time to reposition, and he was taken down by Little Li with an M4! Little Li personally ended the last kill! Clean and efficient!"

"3:1! G2 takes another point! That's right! Everyone on G2 stepped up for this point! Old Ni's smoke dodge, Little Li's follow-up shot, and Kid's shot, though it missed, at least gave them some information!"

"but!"

The voice playing the machine suddenly rose, "Looking back, the reason why Wu Zhuge's meticulously designed tactics failed completely is because this point was lost entirely by one person!"

"That's right! It's Dark!!"

"When Wu Zhuge first tried to rotate to B, he coordinated with Lao Ni's flashbang and headshot roeJ with a bird sniper rifle, putting the Ts at a numerical disadvantage from the start and forcing them to take advantage of the situation and attack point A!"

"The most crucial thing is that when he went through that deadly parking space, it was absolutely insane! When I saw Farlig crouching so slyly behind the barrel, I thought, how is he supposed to get through this? It's a complete dead end!"

"Putting everything else aside, even if you take precautions and deliberately search this spot, how can you fight against a well-prepared AK at that distance with a sniper rifle?"

"But who would have thought! Dark didn't even search! He just charged forward with his knife! Halfway there, he showed off his movement and shooting skills with a quick reaction and kicked Farlig, who was crouching in the latrine, to death!"

"Holy crap! It worked! Dude!"

"This is purely a demonstration of individual ability, a naked numerical difference! Who could have imagined this! Even if Wu Zhuge were the most calculating, he couldn't have predicted that Dark could break the deadlock in this way!"

Hearing the passion mixed with a touch of helplessness in the voice of the man playing with the machine, the live stream chat exploded with comments.

"66666!"

"So there's a 'generation gap' even among young people!"

"Is that what you call a generation gap? This wave alone is an insurmountable chasm!"

"."

"No, is this something to brag about? Isn't this just Farlig's gunplay bordering on criminal?"

"To be honest, if this AK can't kill anyone with close-range spray, how can it be used to play professionally?"

"If I were Breathing Bro, I'd slap Farlig to death first!"

"."

The live stream chat was flooded with comments!

With this point secured, the score for G2 became 3-1, giving G2 a significant advantage in both economy and morale.

The atmosphere at the Little Flame competition area was even more subdued.

Farlig opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopped, his face filled with regret and self-blame. Finally, he took the initiative to say in a low voice, "This point was deserved. It was my mistake that allowed the opponent to come out from the middle lane and even gave away an AK."

He really felt a bit powerless this time.

In retrospect, whether from a tactical perspective or on-the-spot decision-making, his decision to crouch in that position after receiving instructions from "Breathing Brother" to try to eliminate potential flanking threats was theoretically flawless.

At that spot, if someone comes ten times, he'll be able to ambush and kill them nine times out of ten.

But then, he encountered that one and only time he couldn't kill it!
And in such a ridiculously over-the-top way.

Looking back now, if he had listened more and immediately blocked the banana lane with smoke before heading straight to site A to rejoin his teammates, perhaps with nicoodoz's amazing smoke-penetrating sniper rifle, they would have successfully planted the bomb, and the situation would have been completely different.

On the side, roeJ, who was the first to be sniped by Meng Lang in the banana lane, had just witnessed the whole thing from farlig's perspective—he was completely stunned by the opponent's smooth and skillful movements and the final bird sniper headshot!
This guy's bird shot... is too agile!
Is this really a rifleman using a bird sniper rifle?

He couldn't help but glance again at Meng Lang's bandaged right hand on the opposite side of the table, and a question arose in his mind again: Is this bandage... really not some kind of illusion?
But at this point, saying all this is pointless.

Seeing that Breathing Bro was still frowning and deep in thought, RoeJ, a veteran who was a year older than Breathing Bro and had also been a young player, could understand the pressure and self-blame Farlig felt at being publicly stomped on. He took the initiative to comfort him, saying, "It's okay, don't put too much pressure on yourself. I can only say that... the opponent's touch and form today were indeed a bit too good. Just play well and focus on the next point."

Next, the small sparks of economic collapse can only be used for a pure E-game.

Knowing that the opposing team was short on money to buy guns, G2 immediately pushed forward with 3Bs at the start of the round, launching a fierce counter-clearance and allowing Old Ni to have a great time at the terrorist spawn!
The data quickly moved closer to Meng Lang, who was ranked first in the team.

Looking at his soaring kill count, Old Ni grinned from ear to ear, all the frustration of being instantly killed by Neeko's sniper rifle earlier vanished.

The kid next to him felt a surge of resentment, wishing the sniper rifle could fire in bursts like a rifle, otherwise he could also have a blast in an Eco round.

So far, his stats are still negative, which is really tough for a proud young man.

But these are minor incidents.

After Xiaohuomiao Pure Eco lost a point, G2 is now leading 4-1.

In the sixth round, the game finally came to the first full-item rifle round on the decisive map, Inferno Town!
