Chapter 52 There is a kid in FPL, and his sniper is floating in the sky
On October 25, 2021, the weather was sunny in Stockholm.
Suitable for: offering sacrifices, plugging holes, competitions...
Due to some special reasons, online competitions have appeared in the CSGO world for a long time.
The emergence of the online era has caused too many professional players to lose motivation, and it has also made many viewers hope to see the return of offline competitions.
This time the Stockholm Major represents a signal of return to the line.
In addition to the recent news that the Steel Helmet has been promoted to the Major and the youngest player in the Major, netizens in domestic and foreign forums are looking forward to it.
[Team helmet veterans are cheering for you abroad, and I look forward to having a good performance in the Major this time]
【Winning one game counts as victory】
[Anyway, I put the helmet directly on 3-0 (dog head) in my bet]
[The Steel Helmets are really happy that they are 3-0, and there is a little bit of comfort that they are out]
[I do think there is some hope for the steel helmet. My cousin is really exaggerating. He has been killing randomly in FPL recently]
[I saw Xantares complaining on a live broadcast a few days ago, "There is a kid in FPL, and his snipers are killing people on the map"]
【But this is a team game after all】
[It’s a pity that the player stickers this time can only be produced by the legendary group. It’s too difficult]
[What is Valve doing? The rules are changing over and over again, otherwise the helmet veterans will really be able to issue stickers again this time, it will be crazy]
There are mixed reviews on the helmet in the forum, but most domestic players still hope that the helmet can win.
But they also know that the current helmet is only supported by Jiang Yang in front, which is under great pressure.
Jiang Yang, who is far away in Stockholm, is still working hard in FPL.
He actually wanted to play training matches more, but as the game was approaching, no one had many appointments to practice, so Jiang Yang could only focus on FPL.
FPL is the abbreviation of FACEIT Pro League. It is a special server on the foreign platform Faceit. Generally, only professional players can join it.
It is somewhat similar to the Alliance's Top of the Canyon server, but in comparison, its environment and intensity are much stronger than those of Top of the Canyon.
Because the threshold for FPL really requires a professional level to join.
This time when we came to Stockholm, the tournament team also directly helped these players to authenticate an FPL account qualification so that they could travel in FPL.
How to describe it.
The members of the Steel Helmets, and only DD can withstand the pressure of the FPL group.
The other members have become the backdrop for this professional brawl.
Jiang Yang is the one who adapts the fastest, and he has even reached the point where he can compete with several major FPL 'instructors'.
The top professional players in FPL also have very good evaluations of Jiang Yang.
In these days, Jiang Yang finally felt the pressure again, and his level was slowly improving.
Today's intensity was not high. He was facing only Huo Man and Jackz. He defeated the two opponents easily.
The old lady MO not far away shouted: "Cousin, please pay attention to the time, we will go to the venue in one hour, don't play the next one."
"I know, I just finished here." Jiang Yang responded, agreed to Huo Nan and JackZ's friend applications in the friend list, and turned off the computer.
Then he leaned back on the gaming chair and closed his eyes. The other members of the Steel Helmets were not surprised. According to Jiang Yang, this is called - meditation training method.
They don't understand what meditation training is. As long as Jiang Yang can carry it, he is awesome.
In fact, Jiang Yang was just checking the contents of the system's transformation.
In the recent period of time, he has been playing crazy games with top players in FPL, and he has improved very quickly. Two of his "unique skills" have been upgraded to a level.
The first is that ‘NIKO’s preview’ has been upgraded to a high level.
【The essence of preview (advanced)】
[Features: Peek out after making pre-aim preparations, greatly improving the accuracy of the first shot, and greatly improving the ability to tear down big snipers with your hands! 】
When the preview skills reach an advanced level, the concept changes completely.
Originally it was just a technique of previewing to improve the accuracy of the first shot, but now it has even become a special attack against big snipers.
This is interesting.
He is a big sniper himself, so he naturally knows how difficult it is to deal with big snipers.
In those video collections, the eye-catching scenes of tearing apart a big sniper with a hand show how difficult it is to tear a big sniper apart with a hand.
And they are all greatly improved, which is a bit abnormal.
Then [Twistzz’s short burst technique] became ‘intermediate’.
[Twistzz’s short burst shooting skills (intermediate)]
[Features: Slightly increase the short burst headshot rate. 】
This is not bad, but it is extremely useful at critical times. The three-shot short-burst shooting method requires a high headshot rate.
If your headshot rate is not enough, it is easy to cripple someone with three consecutive shots, and then kill the next person.
Failure to produce an instant kill is quite uncomfortable in a CSGO game because the opponent's firepower is completely different.
Five enemies with 20 health and one enemy with 100 health can cause completely different levels of trouble.
After thinking about it, Jiang Yang took out another pack of 'Sleep Black Tea' from his pocket and brewed it in a thermos cup, just in case.
In two hours, Jiang Yang's first Major match will officially begin, and he is inevitably a little nervous now.
He thought about it carefully, and he should have made all the preparations that should be done...
"Oh! No." Jiang Yang looked at a little pony doll he bought specially last night, "I still have to find a place to print a photo."
Before this competition, the thing they were most worried about was the visa issue. After all, Jiang Yang was young, so it was difficult to deal with this matter.
But in the end, it went surprisingly smoothly, and all five Steel Helmets players and their assistant, Asuka Haru, passed their visas.
Tomorrow Qing mainly came to help Steel Helm as a translator.
However, Masisi, who wanted to come over the most, had problems with his visa and was forced to live broadcast to water friends in Shanghai.
Faced with this helpless situation, Masisi laughed at himself that he had been given the palace by a steel helmet, and he often performed miserably in front of friends in the live broadcast room.
Although Jiang Yang felt a little uneasy because his cousin was not around, he still planned to let his cousin appear in the Major, even if it was just his name.
Jiang Yang told MO and asked Ming Riqing to take him to a nearby print shop.
Jiang Yang had no idea. As a freshman who had dropped out of school, his English proficiency had long been returned to the teacher.
Apart from being able to curse a few [classic English swear words], he is completely black.
However, when he has free time recently, he will also take the initiative to watch American TV series, and then try to translate the meaning - this is the method Ma Xixi taught Jiang Yang to learn English.
...In the Huya 123321 live broadcast room.
The lonely old man Ma Xixi was chatting haggardly with the water friends.
There is no MO, no tomorrow, no cousin, there is nothing left in the CSBOY live broadcast room!
"The opponents of the Steel Helmets in the first round? Their first round is actually a bit difficult. In the first round, they will play Team
Masisi took a breath: "The main thing today is to see how they adapt. It is still difficult to defeat Heroic."
【Xixi started to show off her strength again haha】
[That is, it is difficult for Steel Helm to win! 】
[Let’s question it first, shall we? 】
The viewers in the live broadcast room all thought that Masisi was trying to create a show effect, but in fact, Masisi really thought so.
Heroic is not a weak team.
As the current second brother of Denmark, Heroic is almost one of the strongest teams in this Major.
Their current lineup is: Cadian, refrezh, stavn, TeSeS, sjuush.
Cadian's experience as a player is magical. When he was young, he was a very bad professional player. He was even called a bad player because he lost to a female player in a one-on-one match.
But after years of ups and downs in the CS circle, he can be considered a late bloomer and is now one of the best leaders on the market.
This guy refrezh, many people have no impression of this ID, but he is a very rare black player in the entire e-sports circle.
And in the ESL14 season a month ago, in Heroic's game, he helped the team reverse the situation with a 1V5 highlight at 14:15.
The remaining three people are all extremely outstanding players in Denmark today.
Heroic's current world ranking is also ranked 5th in the world.
As for the steel helmet, the world ranking is 88th.
There are still 82 teams to cross between the Steel Helmets and Heroic.
From the very beginning, Masisi wanted to curse [Korean traditional swear words] when she matched her helmet with an opponent of this level.
At this moment, Masisi heard the background music of the push stream, and he immediately cut over.
"There's a picture, brothers... Oh! What's going on with my cousin? Why did he shave off an inch of his head?" Masisi was a little surprised.
Before, Jiang Yang had exactly the kind of student mushroom head, and with that handsome face, he looked like a campus male protagonist.
But I have to say that handsome people are really handsome.
Even if it's just an inch, Jiang Yang looks a little green.
Many female fans in the live broadcast room were frantically sending comments that flooded the screen.
Yes, thanks to the existence of Jiang Yang, CSBOY now has a lot of female fans.
Masisi thought it was quite nonsense.
Then the director also knew how to take care of things. He clearly noticed Jiang Yang's battle-scarred mouse pad and even gave a close-up of it.
【What is this? 】
[Strong people never complain about the environment? 】
[Where did my cousin dig up this old thing from? 】
[Masisi, is this how you treat your cousin? 】
[My mentality is so messed up, my cousin is going to use this mouse pad to play Major? What do my piles of assorted mouse pads mean? 】
[It feels like the mouse pad has become more powerful]
Seeing Jiang Yang's mouse pad again, Ma Xixi also felt a little embarrassed.
He explained: "Brothers in the live broadcast room, don't worry, it's not that I'm so harsh on my cousin, but he doesn't want to lose me!"
"He said that I gave this mouse pad to him when he was a child. He has been used to it and it feels good to use that mouse pad. Otherwise, I have a lot of mouse pads in the warehouse and he can use one every day without any problem. ”
Jiang Yang seemed to have noticed that the photographer was taking pictures. Jiang Yang took the initiative to raise his fist and fist bump with the photographer, and then said: "Bro, look here."
The mixed communication between Chinese and English is comparable to the phrase "Can you flush the red stairs?" ’, which made Masisi’s eyes darken.
Then the next scene immediately stunned him.
Following Jiang Yang's gesture, the photographer shifted the camera to the right and saw the coaching chairs behind the players.
At this moment, a pony doll was placed in the coach's seat, and an outrageous Masisi emoticon was pasted on the pony's face.
[Mr. Ma, they don’t have a palace for you! ! 】
[Masisi: "I can play the Stockholm Major!!"]
[I’m laughing so hard, it’s definitely my cousin who did this, little pony + emoticon, he’s so lively]
[In tears, no one can be missing the helmet! 】
【Hahahahaha】
[Unfortunately, I can’t see Mr. Ma ordering takeout in the back]
Although she was blackmailing herself, Masisi still felt warm in her heart.
It's very simple to do this, it's just a horse doll and a printed color photo.
But he was happy that his cousin in Stockholm could think of him.
"It's worth it that I love you so much." Masisi smiled.
In this happy atmosphere, the BP between the two parties officially began.
The Major challenger group all adopts a BO1 competition system. Only games related to promotion and elimination are BO3 competition systems.
Today is just a BO1, and it seems that the Steel Helmets still have some chance of winning.
As soon as it came up, Steel Helmet directly removed the Death Amusement Park and Death Mansion.
"For Team >
The strongest maps of Steel Helm were Maze City and Sha Er, but they were banned by Team
Team X continued to ban ancient ruins.
That left Nukem and Inferno for the Steel Helmets to choose from.
After careful consideration, Steel Helm finally chose Purgatory Town as the competition map.
Ten players from both sides have begun making final preparations, and the game is about to begin!
……
PS: In reality, the stickers for this Stockholm Major require the championship group, that is, the top eight, but for the sake of the plot of the novel, Coffee changed it to the legendary group, Sister Li...
