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

Chapter 92 Advancement! Here I come, Champion Group! (Bonus Chapter)
On the Little Flame competition stage.

During the brief pause, Brother Wu Zhuge was having a crazy brainstorming session.

He rubbed his temples hard with both hands, took a deep breath, and forced himself to quickly calm down his surging emotions.

As the backbone of the team

He can't afford to panic first.

We must execute the tactics for the final point!

In the blink of an eye, a clear battle strategy quickly took shape in his mind, which was known as the "brain of Zhuge Liang".

This is Zhuge Liang, the strategist!

This is the God of Breath!

No matter how dire the situation, he can always find a way out for the team in the shortest amount of time!
"Listen, it's the last point!"

At this moment, Breathing Bro's voice regained its composure, carrying an undeniable determination.

"Give up the banana lane, don't engage them head-on. I'll set up smoke at the terrorist spawn, one person controls the middle lane, the other three will go down the side lane, quickly get to VIP and the second floor. This time we'll play an unconventional A second floor map control! Let's find an opportunity to get the first kill!"

Wu Zhuge narrowed his eyes slightly.

They got the first kill!

Once the opposing formation is disrupted,
It would be easy to expose a flaw.

……

On the other hand, look at the G2 team's lineup.

Because of their huge lead in the first half, the team was in a very relaxed and cheerful mood. Everyone was chatting and laughing, discussing Meng Lang's astonishing triple kill as the mayor.

As the team's commander, Little Li cleared his throat, preparing to deploy the standard defensive tactics for the final point of the first half, aiming to secure the point.

Just then, Meng Lang suddenly spoke, his tone a mix of probing and eagerness:
"Li Shen, I... have an idea."

???

Little Li was momentarily stunned, and swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

Subconsciously, his thoughts drifted back to yesterday's match against Heroic, where Mirajit had said something similar in the same tone.

Then... then came the legendary "Miraji's fastest mid-lane kill" that will go down in Major history: a super flanking maneuver that resulted in a pentakill.

So what kind of "tricky idea" will this guy, whose mind is always full of whimsical ideas, come up with this time?
Little Li immediately became very interested, and involuntarily leaned forward, asking curiously:
"Slurp it up!"

……

6657 live broadcast room.

"Alright, after a brief pause, both players have returned to the game. Let's take a look at the last point of the first half and see if Little Flame can salvage some pride for himself."

He was analyzing the situation while playing with the machine.

"Wow! It seems like Breathing Bro completely changed their tactics after the timeout! They opted to leave the banana lane open, with one person at the terrorist spawn, one person taking the middle lane, and three people clustering on the side lane! It looks like they want to quickly get to the VIP area and control the second floor this round. They're playing very unconventionally! They've completely abandoned control of the banana lane!"

"What about G2? How will they respond?... What?! 1B4A?! Dark has also arrived at Area A?!"

"This time, apart from my cousin huNter who was holding the gadget and loitering around the back of the police spawn in Area B, the other four CTs all gathered in Area A!"

"Little Li jumped and threw a one-way smoke grenade in the mid lane right at the start of the game! That smoke grenade was brilliant! It both blocked the vision of the T mid laner and created an opportunity for his own team to pick off enemies from one direction!"

"Old Ni and the kid used the one-way smoke to sneak up to the VIP area. Old Ni looked to the side, and the kid set up a sniper rifle in the middle! Dark was even bolder, sneaking up from the boiler room and throwing out a smoke grenade to put out the fire. He held the VIP position by himself!"

"My God! The CTs played incredibly aggressively in this round! Almost the entire team pushed forward! That's strange! This isn't like Li Shen's usual steady and intelligent style!"

"Oh! The side lane! Little Flame's three Ts are almost here! Are they going to run into Old Ni and Dark head-on?! This is going to be a head-on collision!"

Accompanied by exclamations of surprise from those playing with the machines!

On the G2 pitch.

The match lasted 1 minute and 44 seconds!
Standing in the VIP area, Meng Lang calmly announced his position: "Master Li, I've taken my seat."

The next second, Little Li, who was guarding the connection, understood immediately and without hesitation, jumped and threw two high-arc flashbangs in succession, which flew accurately into the air above the side lane!
Almost simultaneously, VIP Meng Lang also made his move, launching a precise flashbang straight towards the middle lane!
Bang bang bang! !

The three flashbangs exploded almost simultaneously in the air above the side lane and the middle lane, and the blinding white light instantly engulfed the vision of all the Ts!
"Oh! All white! All white!! So dazzling and a perfect match for a good person!"

He shouted excitedly while playing the machine.

The next second, Meng Lang and Lao Ni, who had prepared flashbangs in advance, approached like two tigers descending the mountain, one from the front of the VIP area and the other from the side!

The two of them pulled out simultaneously!

Their guns were aimed directly at the three brothers who were completely white-clad, standing there with their eyes covered like headless flies, controlling the side lane!
farlig, roeJ, Zyphon!

Da da da!
Da da da--!
The gunfire of AK-47s and M4A4s rang out violently!

The bullets swept past like a storm of metal!

The three young Danish players on the side path felt a blinding white light before their eyes, their ears filled with the screams of their teammates and the gunfire of the enemy. They desperately spun and jumped, trying to dodge, but there was nowhere to escape!
Then, they were mercilessly blasted away and torn apart by bullets!
A dazzling barrage of messages suddenly appeared on the big screen!

G2-Dark killed CPH Flames-roeJ with an AK-47

G2-Dark killed CPH Flames-farlig with an AK-47

G2-NiKo used an M4A4 to kill CPH Flames-Zyphon

The three brothers of the side lane control,

They all collapsed instantly!

They didn't even manage to fire a single meaningful shot in retaliation!
Not only that!

Good news has also come from the battlefield guarded by children on Zhonglu Road!
With the help of the mid-lane flashbang that Meng Lang threw from VIP, the kid suddenly peeked out from the nearby one-way smoke and just happened to see the Danish second sniper nicoodoz, who was dizzy from being hit by the white light and was trying to retreat!

boom--!
The AWP roars again!

G2-m0NESY killed CPH Flames-nicoodoz with an AWP.

In an instant!
Four people died suddenly!

At this moment, the game time had just reached 1 minute and 38 seconds.

With 1 minute and 44 seconds remaining, Meng Lang called out the point.
Only 6 seconds have passed.

Breathing Bro, who had just started the game with a cigarette from the bandit's mouth, was about to direct the next move based on the information when he heard a series of urgent and suffocating death messages coming through his earpiece.

He was completely confused!
What about teammates?
Where are my four teammates who are all that big?!
Holy crap!

My teammates are all dead?!
what happened? !

The next second, the child, realizing what was happening, pressed his advantage and delivered another Repeek!

At this point, Breathing Bro knew things were going badly and instinctively tried to crawl back into the bandit's smoke.

But the child suddenly swung his aim!
The AWP's muzzle spewed flames again!
Leave no way out!

boom--!
G2-m0NESY killed CPH Flames-HooXi with an AWP.

Breathing Bro was shot dead in the smoke, just like the scene in the previous long gun round where the kid tried to run but was killed by Breathing Bro in the smoke!

At this moment, the child m0NESY felt comfortable!
A relieved smile appeared on his face.

Breathing Bro, whose screen had turned completely gray, stared blankly at the match time.

1 minutes 37 seconds.

7 seconds.

In just 7 seconds, he and his four teammates all fell in G2's thunderous counter-clearing of the side lane and mid lane!

The director's camera was still focused on the side lane's Lao Ni and Meng Lang's screen-filling shots, and didn't have time to switch back to the mid lane's Xiao Hai's double kill!

The small flames were already... completely extinguished.

Destroy the group!

At this moment, the chat in the 6657 live stream room exploded with comments!
"Holy crap! That was fast!"

"That's it? I didn't even get a clear look at them before they were all dead?"

"Director: My camera hasn't even turned around yet! Can you guys slow down a bit?!"

"Damn, that's hilarious! The three Danish brothers who were just on the side road were so shocked they couldn't open their eyes, they were just waiting to die!"

"Great! Nini, Haihai, and Heihei really enjoyed this round of spending!"

"Who the hell designed this? The CTs are beating it way too recklessly!"

"To be honest, it feels a bit like watching a streamer play Perfect World in ranked matches!"

"Could this be Dark's idea?"

"."

Just then, as if in response to the questions from the viewers in the live stream, the director simultaneously played a short clip of G2's team voice chat while switching to the highlight reel. Meng Lang's clear "have a good idea" and Xiao Li's curious and trusting "say it!" clearly reached the ears of all the viewers.

exploded!

The chat room exploded with comments!

"It's confirmed! It's Dark!"

"You're a fucking genius!"

"Dakr: Feel the perfect storm from the East!"

"Damn it! Wu Zhuge's disadvantage this time is that he's never played in the Perfect Ranked Match!"

Playing with the machine, he laughed so hard he slapped his belly, exclaiming, "Haha! I was just saying that this point was played way too outrageously and aggressively, not at all like Li Shen's usual methodical and wise approach. I didn't expect it to really be Dark's idea!"

"Wow! Dark is hilarious! Playing a Major, bro, are you playing a smurf match on Perfect Platform? But you know what! In a crucial game, he suddenly pulls off this ultimate aggressive play. Even if you were Zhuge Liang, you couldn't have predicted this mysterious power from the East! Hahaha!"

The first half ended with a score of 12-3.

Just moments ago, Wu Zhuge had managed to sort out his thoughts and regain a bit of fighting spirit after scoring the last point, but now he was lying back in his gaming chair with a numb expression!

His eyes were vacant.
I stared blankly at the ceiling for several seconds.

At that moment, his mind was replaying the scene of his teammates falling like wheat being harvested in those short 6 seconds, uncontrollably.

After a long while, Wu Zhuge finally revealed a bitter smile on his face, a smile that was a mixture of helplessness, absurdity, and finally complete relief.

tired!

Destroy it!
Looking at the glaring 3:12 on the scoreboard, Wu Zhuge's expression grew increasingly dejected.

In Map 1, Ancient Ruins, and Map 2, Nuclear Crisis, they were able to fight G2 to a standstill, or even have a slight advantage. So why did Map 3, Purgatory Town, become such an unsightly scene?

Everyone says that small-town teams are extremely demanding in terms of teamwork and tactical awareness. Could it be a gap in his command skills? But he doesn't think he's any worse than Leonardo DiCaprio.
He doesn't understand!

But after subconsciously opening the TAB data panel and glancing at the opposing player with the ID "Dark," whose incredible 28/4 score in just 15 rounds in the first half on the map "Small Town"...

Once again, Wu Zhuge's face revealed that smile of complete relief, even a hint of resignation.

He gradually began to understand.

If I had a "Danish junior" who could dominate like that, I could easily score points with just a few commands!

but……

G2's younger generation...

Where did you find this?!

……

6657 live broadcast room.

"It feels like the little flame in picture three is a bit too far away."

Playing with the machine shook his head and said with a smile, "In the first two maps, they were indeed evenly matched with G2. Nuka-Crisis was back and forth, and Ruins even had a slight advantage. But in the Town map, I can only say that Dark's performance on this map was really at the 'mini-G' level. They completely dominated the game."

"Wow! This guy's adaptability and growth rate are really terrifying. If I remember correctly, during the second round of the Challenger Group against Liquid, his understanding of the town map and some details were still a bit bumpy, and he often got caught out by the veterans. But I didn't expect that in just a few days, he would turn this map into his 'strong map,' or even his 'signature map'!"

"This ability to learn and evolve is simply unbelievable if you haven't seen it with your own eyes!"

"In the second half, the two sides switched sides. Although the small town is essentially more like a police map, I still feel that after the first half, especially after being wiped out in 7 seconds in the last point, the team's touch and morale have really been reduced to zero."

"Without further ado, let's move on to the second half. Let's see if Little Flame can take a point as the CT in the pistol round. If he wins, we still have a chance to keep the score close and maintain suspense. If he loses, it's really hard to say."

And indeed, things turned out exactly as the machine player had predicted.

Although during halftime, Xiao Huomiao's coach was frantically twisting the rope behind him, and Breathing Bro was also trying to take deep breaths, attempting to regain his and his teammates' sense of command and the game.

However, the shadow of being crushed in the first half, especially the final blitzkrieg, is not so easy to dispel.

The team's overall performance
It felt as if I had truly been thrown into an ice cellar.

Second half pistol round!

The small group's USP bursts were like splashing water.

Almost all the horses are gone!
In the pistol round, G2 easily tore through Little Flame's cold and rigid defenses with a simple bomb blast at B site, taking the round immediately.

In the next minute, Little Flame chose to force a comeback.

They adopted a gamble-style defense, heavily fortifying the connector and A1, attempting to create a miracle with close-range submachine guns.

As a result, Meng Lang, who had finally become a "bandit", was wielding an AK and sent into the middle lane under the cover of his teammates' flashbangs!

A textbook-perfect sweeping attack wiped out all the heavily defended CTs!

……

The live stream chat was immediately flooded with comments again.

"6666!"

"We've finally made Dark a bandit!"

"Haha! This is a truly bad guy! He's perfectly suited to being a bandit!"

"Wu Zhuge seems to have been completely demoralized! His commands are no longer as accurate."

"."

In the next round, the small flame, whose economy had completely collapsed, could only play pure E, and had no choice but to give up match point.

G2 won another point without lifting a finger.

The score is now 15:3.

At this point, G2 held a total of 12 match points, and the match officially entered the first long-range rifle round of the second half, which was also Little Fire's theoretical last chance.

Compared to the relaxed, even somewhat cheerful atmosphere at the G2 booth, the atmosphere at the Little Flame booth was extremely dull.

Those three Danish prodigies, who had been eager to compete and defiant earlier, were now completely deflated. Their initial "bullishness" and ambition had been utterly shattered by Meng Lang's terrifying AK!

All that's left is numb, mechanical operation.

Even Wu Zhuge, the breathing guy, was somewhat disheartened, but he forced himself to muster his last bit of energy and set up the most basic and formulaic defensive default.

The once brilliant strategies of Zhuge Liang seem to have run dry.

On the other hand, G2, who had won consecutive games in the second half and were in perfect form, played with complete freedom.

In this point, the kid used a sniper rifle in the banana lane to kill a CT who jumped up from behind a stone slab to observe, giving him a numerical advantage.

Immediately, the G2 team decisively detonated the bomb in B site.

The kid was completely in character, arrogantly swinging a butterfly knife in his hand and pushing forward through the banana lane with a sniper rifle in hand, his momentum unstoppable!

Meng Lang and the old nun stood on the left and right,
Like two great protectors,

G2's three driving forces are running side by side!

Behind him, Leonardo DiCaprio and his cousin HuNter provided precise prop support.

A perfectly fluid barrage of bombs and follow-up shots completely melted the remaining CT in B site before he could even mount a decent resistance.

[G2-NIKO used an AK-47 to kill CPH Flames-farlig]

G2 didn't mess around. After entering the B bomb site without taking any damage, they immediately blocked the CT spawn with smoke, planted the bomb cleanly and efficiently, and then took their positions.

Prepare for the CT's final defensive rotation.

Connecting the lines, Breath Bro, along with nicoodoz who were originally defending Area A, knew their chances were slim, but they still forced a return to defend, trying to fight for their last shred of dignity.

But this struggle was no match for the already frenzied G2.

It appears so pale and powerless.

"Whoa—! The kid turned around and blocked the banana lane! The CT who was peeking out from the banana lane was instantly killed by him!"

"The smoke from the CT spawn hasn't dissipated yet! But his teammates' flashbangs are already in place! Dark immediately pulls out of the CT spawn smoke and tears apart the Danish second sniper nicoodoz who was trying to set up his gun!"

"Old Ni! Old Ni is also the one who strangled the 'Martial Arts Zhuge Breathing Brother' who tried to sneak over from the church in the coffin position!"

"That's it! G2's three driving forces are back in action! Clean and efficient!"

"16:3! Game over—!"

"Congratulations to G2! They won their Legends qualifier against Copenhagen Flame 2-1, a close call! They become the second team after NAVI to secure a spot in the Champions League at this Antwerp Major!"

"That's right! Next, they're about to step onto the real big stage! To be greeted by thunderous cheers and a sea of ​​stares! That is—the Antwerp stadium, which can hold tens of thousands of spectators!"

"If I remember correctly, this will be the first time Dark, this rising star from CNCS, has stepped into such a large-scale offline event in his entire career! Dark! You have to hold your own in the arena!"

Accompanied by passionate words, like a prayer while playing with a machine!
