CS2: My reaction speed is the limit of human capability.

Chapter 100 zywoo's face darkened: flameZ, did he really say that?

Tang also delivered an extremely impressive performance, using a sniper rifle to kill three people in a row and directly destroy the entire A bomb site.

"Holy crap, is this guy even human?! This is insane! This is a professional match!" The player exclaimed in disbelief. "S1mple is stunned. He finished the initial setup and saw all his teammates were dead. Those three teammates were Izumi Tobu Poet!"

Tang Ye's top-notch performance broke the stalemate for Tianlu, tearing open a defensive line with his individual ability.

After breaching Area A, the members of Tianlu were already in position with their guns set up, and did not cooperate with Flashbang to actively counter-clear the police base.

Although they currently have five players alive while the opposing team only has two, their economy isn't doing very well. And s1mple...

The game is currently in a very hot phase. If we rashly surrender the sniper rifle, TyLoo could suffer heavy losses with Electronic Bro's protection.

Hamburg had obviously taken this into account, and after careful consideration, he gave the order: "Each of you set up your guns and then retreat to A1. Xiao Ju, go to the second floor of A1, and Tang, go to A1. You two set up your guns and then retreat from A1."

The tactical objective of this round of Tianlu has been achieved: successfully planting the bomb without any casualties. Now, all they need to do is play it safe and defend the bomb to establish an advantage. There is no need to risk losing their weapons.

However, Electronic Bro and s1mple clearly don't think so.

"Let's go to the bandits' place and cut off their guns. Let's cripple their economy and trade one more gun for them," Electronic Bro suggested to s1mple, still intently watching the screen.

"Let's go destroy them." s1mple spoke without any restraint, his anger burning within him.

Inside the 6657 live stream room, Wanjiji was watching the changing situation on the field with great interest, watching Electronic Bro and s1mple step by step walk into the abyss.

"But s1mple and Electronic Bro still had a plan. The two of them directly cooperated to flank the terrorist base at A1 and try to cut off the terrorists' guns. They knew that the terrorists were short of money, so in order to play it safe, they would not surrender their sniper rifles, but would wait for the bomb to be blown back to A1 to secure the point. Meanwhile, Electronic Bro and s1mple had already ambushed at A1, trying to take out the terrorists' guns."

"But Tang also positioned himself after the straight-line attack, and Xiao Ju was watching from the corner on the second floor of A. This round of gun-breaking isn't going to be easy! Do we really have to break it?"

"Oh, they didn't break through! Tang also firmly held off Electronic Bro, although s1mple finished him off later, but Xiao Ju on the second floor of A also activated!"

"With this point, no one in BC survived!"

"F......" s1mple forcibly suppressed the urge to smash the mouse, and could only grit his teeth for a while, before gritting his teeth and bumping fists with his teammate.

After that point, BC called a timeout.

Coach TaZ's main focus was on making the team's senior players happy and providing emotional support. During this timeout, he didn't discuss any tactics but instead started adjusting the mentality of the two senior players.

"It's okay, s1mple. You played very well. It's just that our teamwork wasn't good enough and there were some tactical loopholes."

Seeing that s1mple still had a stern face, TaZ tried to comfort him: "It's okay, we're all brothers, it's just that the guy on the other side named g0d is playing too well..."

17

"Good play?" s1mple finally spoke up. "Wasn't our team coordination a huge problem? We got wiped out by one enemy sniper, and his teammates weren't even in position. How did you guys manage to get killed one by one?"

He admitted that the young sniper named g0d was indeed very skilled.

However, losing in a localized 1v3 situation, and failing to even finish off the opponent, is partly due to the opponent's exceptional performance, but more importantly, it indicates a significant problem with team coordination.

In other words, the teammates were really bad, and they played very cautiously.

It's infuriating for anyone to see their opponent, whom they had so thoroughly defeated, now beating their own teammates and ultimately causing a loss, let alone for someone as ambitious and skilled as s1mple.

"These teammates have done their best..." TaZ looked a little troubled as he said this, "After all, this team is still in the adjustment period, and their coordination isn't very good yet... so you'll need to guide them a bit more..."

'

s1mple was secretly cursing under his breath.

In fact, s1mple had his reasons for saying that.

"What kind of team am I leading? I'm leading the Black Gold Dynasty Navi! Who are your people? You expect me to lead them?"

"What level is BC team at now? They only have a few people. Even someone like MUTiRiS is in charge of commanding. Can he really command?"

"I can't command, I don't have the ability, you know that?"

s1mple originally wanted to communicate in a friendly manner, but TaZ's words immediately raised his blood pressure.

He was never the kind of person who was content to retire peacefully, otherwise he wouldn't have continued to compete on the field.

But his opinion doesn't mean his teammates think the same way. His teammates are basically just there to coast along, rarely putting on any standout performances, and even when they do, they're just there to make up for other people's mistakes.

The atmosphere in BC's stands gradually cooled to freezing point, leaving only the two Red Boys...

The atmosphere on Tianlu's side, however, was relaxed and pleasant.

Although the score was still 5:4, with Tang Ye only leading by one point, his move was undoubtedly very morale-boosting.

"Next, we'll play a slow-paced map and speed things up, giving them a flurry of fast and slow attacks." Hamburger continued, giving instructions for the next round.

TyLoo's speed-up in the previous round was very effective, and BC will definitely make adjustments to this in this round. Either they'll call s1mple to A...

The district's strategy is either to launch an unconventional forward push to prevent Tianlu from accelerating.

TyLoo, on the other hand, knew that BC would focus on using items to prevent TyLoo from accelerating in the early game. So TyLoo chose to play slowly in this round. Although they were still playing the established tactic of accelerating A site, they could pretend to control the mid-lane map first, put enough pressure on B site, and then go back to attack A site.

In this round, both BC and Tianlu were still using all their guns and ammunition, but BC's command was clearly in disarray, with problems such as duplicate items being exchanged.

At this moment, both on and off the field, the focus is on the duel between the two snipers.

s1mple's condition has clearly improved; he's practically burning himself into a relic. On the other hand, the impact of the newcomer g0d ​​on him is undoubtedly enormous. In terms of reaction speed, the two are evenly matched, but g0d is clearly more consistent, with each shot appearing almost like a stray shot.

However, the main focus of the subsequent matches was not the two snipers.

Tianlu's marksmanship blossomed across the board, resulting in breakthroughs from multiple points.

In the 10th round, under TyLoo's fast and slow knife tactics, Ling Feng launched an extremely abnormal sweeping shot transfer at the arch, directly securing a triple kill and changing the score to 6:4.

Electronic Bro retaliated, racking up a triple kill at the familiar B site, while Tang was also caught off guard, and his team only lost two players. But in the final 1v3 situation left for Xiao Ju, the S1 MVP of Fission World directly demonstrated his terrifying strength, winning the round at the last moment with his superb gun skills and cunning positioning.

In the final point, TyLoo launched another fast attack on Area A, and BC were completely powerless to resist, suffering a total team wipe.

"Nice!"

The members of Tianlu celebrated by bumping fists with each other, all with smiles on their faces.

They scored 8 points in the first half, which already gave them a considerable advantage.

At this point, the director immediately displayed Tang Ye's offensive statistics for the first half.

"ADR 169 on 23/3/2!"

[This data...Zaisheng has open-sourced it?]

[Honor! You are permitted to receive a crown and emoluments!]

[23 kills in the first half, anyone want to go up and wipe out the smurf?]

[Dude, even if Zywoo led those three Intel engineers, they couldn't win. You need to call Forsaken over!]

The player, watching the absurd stats displayed by the director, couldn't hold back any longer: "Guys, this feels like the 2026 Rookie of the Year award is a sure thing! When have you ever seen such insane stats? Even Jae Sung's debut wasn't this ridiculous. This isn't Lu Bian anymore, okay? Playing like this is really inspiring!"

"Should we open champagne at halftime? (reading comments)? I'm not trying to be reasonable, but if TyLoo hadn't made any roster changes, it would be questionable whether they could even qualify for IEM Krakow."

"Brothers, have you ever heard of the theory called the 'barrel theory'? It says that the amount of water a barrel can hold depends not on the longest plank, but on the shortest one."

[Exploded!]

[Twister explodes!]

Will I finally succeed in obtaining the title this time?

"The current score is TyLoo 8:4 BC. Although there's a significant point difference, TyLoo isn't guaranteed a win." Playing Machine was being conservative, not making any definitive statements. "Besides, there's still one more match before advancing to the group stage, and that's a much tougher environment. But honestly, making it to the group stage is already quite an achievement, considering all the teams are focusing on the play-in stage, so we'll inevitably be targeted later on..."

After all, even if TyLoo gets past the BC stage and enters the winners' bracket, they still need to win another round to advance to the group stage.

Even after making it to the group stage, TyLoo's situation is not very optimistic.

On the one hand, the teams in the group stage have made a comprehensive leap in strength, and on the other hand, the tactics and strategies of the teams that have gone through the qualifying rounds will be studied by the teams in the group stage.

Unsurprisingly, the little bees were currently watching the match between TyLoo and BC.

At this moment, the three members of the Little Bees team, apEX, flameZ, and mezii, are leaning back on the sofa, carefully watching TyLoo's match against BC.

The reason they were paying attention to this match was simple—Tianlu was improving at an incredibly fast pace.

As an impeccable dynasty for 25 years, the Little Bees' dominance continued into 26. The Little Bees have already summarized several strategies for playing against their old rivals whom they have faced many times.

On the contrary, TyLoo's world ranking has risen rapidly after the roster change. The young players in the team are quite strong, and most importantly, they are not very familiar with TyLoo's playing style. TyLoo has gradually shown the potential to become a dark horse.

The relationship between the two is like that of the final boss and the protagonist who is growing up in a game. However, this time, the little bee had its eye on Tianlu much earlier.

XTQZZZ returned after fixing the pipes, waving his hands as he asked, "So, what was the score in the first half?"

mezii replied: "8:4. Although s1mple got a beautiful triple kill, g0d retaliated in kind. I have to say, this sniper is very skilled and plays very aggressively. I really didn't expect CNCS to have such talent."

"But it doesn't matter. We also have the French Rift Valley here, and our tactics are far more mature than theirs. Obviously, they are a good team, but they can only beat the Green Dragon Falcons. There is still a certain gap between them and us." apEX gave an objective evaluation from the perspective of the commander. He didn't talk much trash off the field.

XTQZZZ nodded, but then noticed that there were few people in the team.

"Where are Robin (ropz) and Matthew (zywoo)? I can't find them anywhere!"

"Yeah, I was going to ask that too." ApEX was watching intently and obviously didn't notice that the two of them had already slipped away. "I can understand why Matthew didn't come to see us, but what did Robin do?"

Mezii was puzzled: "Why is it understandable that Matthew didn't come to see us? What was he doing before?"

apEX chuckled upon hearing this: "Hey, I almost forgot, you weren't there at the time and didn't experience this. Actually, it's nothing much. Matthew once played against TyLoo and got matched up against by an AWP sniper. After that, he couldn't sleep at all and developed insomnia. He would often wake up suddenly in a cold sweat. Luckily, that sniper retired, and Matthew's condition has improved a bit since then."

"Is that so?" Mezii asked, intrigued. "That sniper on the other side must be really good, right? What was his ID again?"

"Um... I forgot, anyway, it's been hidden for a while now, and it seems like it's making a fortune in Wa."

XTQZZZ: "Can you guys please stop gossiping? Doesn't nobody know what those two were up to?"

flameZ picked up the thread, "Matthew's playing Diablo, and as for Robin, well, you know, Minecraft is really fun. He's currently practicing his Water Spray and Nether Portal Flooding."

However, XTQzZZ couldn't say much. After all, for people like ropz and zywoo, playing CS is as easy as breathing; their talent is obvious to everyone.

These two are just like the academic geniuses in school. Although they don't spend much time studying, they understand things very quickly and can immediately apply them in practice.

But despite saying that, not watching the game still made XTQZZZ frown.

XTQZZZ: "...6."

Next, the Little Bees continued to watch the second half of the Tianlu VS BC match. As expected, Tianlu won, with the final score settling at 13:6, which was a fairly large margin.

XTQZZZ remained silent, instead asking the team members for their opinions: "What do you think of this team?"

After a moment's thought, apEX shared his opinion: "Rather than what I think of the team, I'd like to talk about my opinion on TyLoo's two new young players."

"Honestly, I think this young player named gOd has absolutely top-notch talent." apEX's expression was very serious. "His skill is terrifying, and his marksmanship is outstanding, which is why TyLoo has been able to get this far. But the whole team relies too much on his individual performance, and the team gives him too many resources, which is a bit like holding the team hostage."

"So you mean he's more like a Donk version of the sniper?" XTQZZZ asked.

"More or less." apEX also spoke frankly, "His gun skills and firepower are both top-notch, but his aggressive playstyle makes him easy to exploit, which shows that he doesn't have enough experience in the arena. But the difference between this team and Green Dragon is that they also have Feng."

"He's calm, has good marksmanship and firepower, and when he works with g0d, they're practically unstoppable. I think that's why they were able to climb to 24th in the world so quickly."

XTQZZZ nodded, then asked the other teammates, "Do you guys have anything to say?"

Seeing that f I ameZ raised his hand, XTQZZZ nodded, signaling him to say a few words.

"To be honest, I feel this kid's sniping talent is in no way inferior to Matthew's!" flameZ spoke his mind as always. "I checked, this kid is currently on a youth training contract with TyLoo, not a full-time contract yet. He only earns about $1000 a month, while our Matthew Herbert earns $5 a month, which is a direct difference of 50..."

"A huge difference! But actually, they seem pretty much the same. While G0D is younger, Matthew is quite old too!"

"If Matthew gets old and loses his form, let's just optimize him and replace him with G0D! He's young and cheap, and he'll still play the same role. Communication won't be a problem; as long as the kid understands, he'll learn eventually. Besides, I've calculated it, this will save our club a lot of money! Matthew won't have to worry about finding a job then; he can just join Faze and hang out with his cousin when he's old—it'll be a kind of re-employment!"

When it came to flameZ, the general reaction was no reaction.

After all, flameZ has been known for his lack of emotional intelligence and outspokenness for quite some time now, so everyone just treats it like a fart and it won't affect their relationship.

However, if these words are spoken by someone else, then that's not necessarily true.

After the competition, XTQZZZ specifically sought out zywoo to discuss training issues.

Meanwhile, Matthew Herbert is still diligently farming for gear, all smiles.

"Diablo is so much fun, hehe..."

'

"Still playing! Do you know that another top-tier sniper has appeared on the field?" XTQZZZ said, though somewhat reproachfully, his tone wasn't harsh.

"So what? It's that newbie named g0d, right? There are plenty of rookie genius snipers these days, it's not just a matter of meeting me. Come talk to me about this after you win an S-level tournament MVP." zywoo didn't seem to care.

"Hehe." XTQZZZ chuckled, deciding to put some pressure on zywoo. "He achieved an average RT of 2.1 in these two games, and his performance on the field is definitely no worse than yours. Moreover, your teammate flameZ has already acknowledged that young player named g0d, and even mentioned you in passing."

zywoo became interested: "Oh? How did he approve of it? And how did he mention me?"

"He said, 'When you get old and useless, we'll send you to Faze for a new job, burning lard to power the Galactic Battleship. We'll bring in G0D as a sniper, the best of both worlds!'"

zywoo was taken aback.

Suddenly, zywoo took off his headphones, exited Diablo, and spun his gaming chair to face XTQZZ.

Z.

zywoo's expression darkened.

"Did Flamez really say that?"
