Chapter 85 NIKO + Sand Eagle + Third Floor + Back =?
"... apEX has also been eliminated, leaving only a 5/3/23 giant facing this 1V3 endgame. Can he really stand up and save his teammates?" Jiang Yang gave the message to the game machine, and it took two hours. Over time, his formulaic explanations became more and more proficient.
"How do you want them to fight?"
"He is already frightened. He has no idea where someone will come from. If he kills one, will he still have a chance?" Playing Machine responded, "But Fat Ball won't give him a chance!"
As the giant was killed, the game officially ended, and the battle between Senzai and Morizai finally ended with a score of 2-0.
Zaiwu once again returned to his Bastille.
Only then did Jiang Yang understand that after the game, Shushu actually had good intentions.
After all, Shushu has been through too many times in jail.
The second picture in today’s game was purely abnormal. Everyone averaged about 20 kills, but the giant only got 6 kills in the end. The ADR was only 31. It’s hard to imagine that this is a professional player who can enter the quarterfinals of the Major.
The myth of NAVI being undefeated on the Nuke map continues.
And I have to say that Zaiwu’s mentality is very good.
Even though he was ultimately defeated, he still gave French fans high-fives and fist bumps with a smile on his face after shaking hands.
It's not like him, who exploded emotionally after losing.
Jiang Yang believes that he still needs to learn more about this.
Then after this commentary, Jiang Yang did not stay in the machine broadcast room anymore, said hello and left.
It's okay for him to go over and play with it, but it might be annoying if he keeps stealing the limelight from playing with the machine.
After Jiang Yang left the live broadcast room, he checked the NAVI game video just now.
When chatting with the play machine before, Jiang Yang was reminded of the changes in S1mple.
As one of the strongest players in the world, S1mple will definitely not change his playing style randomly.
Jiang Yang just wanted to see if he could learn anything from S1mple's changes in play style.
Or are these changes just Jiang Yang's illusion.
Then he studied this game carefully and found that S1mple did play relatively steadily.
He also compared S1mple's previous playing style. It was obvious that S1mple used to play more aggressively, which is somewhat similar to Jiang Yang's current way of actively looking for kills.
But Jiang Yang's position selection was better, and S1mple was a bit too wild.
As for the positions he chose, many of them were positions that couldn't be reached with one shot.
But S1mple is confident and knows that shot can hit.
Jiang Yang likes to use his advantageous gun position to disgust the opponent, so that even if the opponent hits him, he will not be able to kill him instantly.
In this way, blood volume can be exchanged for head advantage.
Well, this may also be due to the different environments the two people are in, resulting in different playing styles.
Jiang Yang was in the helmet. After getting the first kill, he had to continue running and try to steal another kill in the mid-term.
But S1mple doesn't need to, because if it's a head-advantage game, at least he won't be as stressed as Jiang Yang.
This forced Jiang Yang to maintain more advantages while looking for kills.
Jiang Yang took a closer look at the reasons why S1mple changed his playing style.
Then he found it quickly - he had stronger teammates.
This result left Jiang Yang quite speechless.
But he is also looking forward to it. If he can have more powerful teammates after the transfer, will he not have to take such a huge risk?
Offensive snipers are difficult to fight, because once the empty gun is not gone, the big economy and the numerical disadvantage will make it too difficult for teammates to fight back.
If possible, Jiang Yang still wants to go out and steal occasionally so that his opponents can't figure out his playing style.
But now there is no such condition.
Just when he was about to turn off his computer and go to sleep, he suddenly saw familiar small characters appearing in front of him.
[Formulated explanation of WJQmachine (intermediate level)]
[Features: Improve the ability to identify ‘hooks’. 】
An idea suddenly appeared in Jiang Yang's mind.
Why do you keep your history as a professional player when playing against machines?
I suppressed the strange thoughts in my mind, and a piece of text appeared in my mind the next second.
“The more you hook, the more you search!”
The general meaning is that in CSGO's defense, the more slowly the hook is pulled, the stronger the attacker's ability to search for this point!
"It turns out to be this hook!" Jiang Yang murmured, "I thought..."
But then he came to carefully understand the concept of ‘the more you hook, the more you search’.
Originally, he didn't care much about it. If he really found a hook on the opposite side, wouldn't it be normal to search carefully?
Then he understood it in detail, and the more he thought about it, the more surprised he became.
In the early CS games, everyone liked to choose some very tricky positions in order to steal the backs. If these positions were used frequently, they would become the sixth position, and everyone would search for them.
Later, the professional team came up with the idea of letting one person act as a bait on the front and serve as a hook for the sixth-ranking players, and achieved a lot of results.
But more and more people are using this method. Now when they see someone seducing like that, everyone realizes that there must be someone hiding somewhere, so they ignore the hook.
This concept completely condenses the development of CSGO.
But it seems that not all professional players have the ability to immediately search for the sixth player when they see the hook. Many people don't seem to realize this.
He was thinking here, and soon his consciousness sank into the simulation training.
Jiang Yang raised his eyebrows, this is a lesson for actual combat?
But he quickly followed suit.
He operated the character and came to the B channel of the nuclear crisis. The CT guarding the iron plate just now had exchanged information with him.
Now the CT under the iron plate is constantly peeking and firing, as if he doesn't want to give up control of the iron plate.
But Jiang Yang had to admit that this wave was indeed a bit fake.
He quietly and slowly pushed forward to get closer to the iron plate, then controlled his position, and then peeked in the direction of the third floor, but he didn't appear at first sight.
Then squat down and slowly rub your right hand closer.
The other party didn't expect Jiang Yang to show up like this at all, and they didn't hit Jiang Yang in a wave of gunfire.
Jiang Yang smiled proudly, mainly because this time the opponent was a little too fake.
But he thought about it again. If under certain circumstances, he deliberately made it fake and made the other side think that someone was too close to move, would it also have an excellent effect?
For example, in the mid-term, he used this method to delay a wave of time, or simply made a move with three people at certain times.
Timing is used to delay time, create false information to force the opponent to change points, or even catch the opponent's head turning.
Jiang Yang felt that he was simply a genius!
This idea needs to be used by some smart people, so that it can really be played.
Otherwise, he would have been seducing me for a long time, and then he would have ridden me directly in the face with a submachine gun, and he wouldn't have been able to curse me.
Shabao can really beat the master sometimes.
Next, Jiang Yang simulated several different types of playing styles.
He found that his idea was indeed right.
Because if the front does not take the hook for a long time, the hook may actually turn into damage.
And sometimes the front side can even sacrifice a wave in advance, and output a wave of force first, so that the opponent will think that the defender's CT in the front point is dead, and will unscrupulously look for another CT in the back point.
It's completely a blind spot in thinking.
After several simulations, Jiang Yang gradually understood the meaning of "the more you hook, the more you search", and he also gained a better understanding of how to identify "hooks".
At night, he became even more energetic.
Then the pro guys who ranked late at night in FPL felt uncomfortable. Some pro guys wanted to rush for points late at night to avoid internet-addicted teenagers like m0nesy and Jiang Yang.
As a result, Jiang Yang worked overtime at night and put on pain masks for them.
In FPL, Jiang Yang is gradually experimenting with his concept of "the more you hook, the more you search", and his use of this concept is becoming more and more obvious.
He enjoys the feeling of slowly getting stronger and gradually understanding the CSGO world.
……
Jiang Yang is going crazy in FPL, and the Stockholm Major is also in full swing.
The first day of competition in the championship group was brutal enough.
On the first day, NAVI defeated the Little Bee with a score of 2-0, allowing Zaiwu to return to the Bastille.
The Red Star also defeated the Panthers with a score of 2-0, and started a CIS battle with NAVI in the first half.
The second half was also very exaggerated. NIP, originally led by device, played completely at home in Stockholm this time, and the BUFFs were all stacked up.
As a result, they were defeated by G2 at home and were taken away at the speed of light with a score of 2-0. Heroic faced off against VP, and the two sides fought fiercely until the third picture, but in the end, in the PK of commanding the snipers, Pianzi was slightly better and entered the semi-finals.
Jiang Yang and the members of the Steel Helmets all went to watch the semi-finals match.
In the top half, NAVI's state is really scary. Even if they play Red Star, they are still eliminated at the speed of 2-0.
This also means that NAVI has not yet lost in this Major, not even a single map.
In the second half, NIKO directly carried everyone in three maps, and finally led the team to a narrow victory in the overtime battle in map three.
Finally, the final in Stockholm.
NAVI and G2 compete for the final championship!
Before the game, both S1mple and NIKO posted on Twitter, looking forward to the finals.
Because after this final, one person is destined to realize his dream, and one person is destined to leave regrets again.
……
On the day of the finals, Jiang Yang and the helmeted players came to the venue of the Stockholm Major.
After the opening of the final, another exhibition match took place.
"Cousin, why didn't you go?" DD said strangely, "As a super newcomer, they should have invited you to participate?"
"They invited." Jiang Yang responded loudly, "The main reason is that one person doesn't want to go. I asked Broky if he could go up, and he said he couldn't go, so I didn't want to go either."
The main reason is that there are not enough places and there are many people who want to go up and play.
The competition team did leave a place for him, but it was outrageous that it reserved a spot for the entire Xiao Huo Miao team, which resulted in him not being qualified enough to play in the end.
The tournament team also invited Faze, but the old man Olaf wanted to come up and play, so Broky didn't argue.
After all, Olaf doesn't have many games to play, and ropz is about to take over.
So in the end Jiang Yang didn't play, so he just watched the game.
But even though he didn't go up, Jiang Yang couldn't help but make a sharp comment: "Their ability to survive is a bit poor. If they asked me to go up, I would just ask my teammates to turn off the other side's display screen in the endgame."
Masisi rolled her eyes: "You are the only one who can do what you can?"
But Masisi thought about it for a moment, and realized that the program would indeed be more effective.
This exhibition match needs to be relaxed.
After all the exhibition games are over, this Stockholm final begins in a real sense.
However, during the BP stage, Jiang Yang couldn't help but ask: "Why isn't this Major a BO5 final?"
He actually likes to watch NAVI and G2 play. If it is a BO5, it will actually be more interesting.
It also feels more flavorful. After all, you have played all five games. If you can win, it means that there is nothing wrong with your map pool and the like.
Masisi explained from his point of view: "Because BO3 is already enough, it makes people feel that there is still more to do, and BO5 is too stressful for some older players."
"In such a high-intensity game, if you play to the last four or five pictures, the enjoyment will be greatly reduced and it is not suitable."
While they were chatting, the game officially started.
Picture 1 shows the ancient ruins chosen by G2. Then Jiang Yang was surprised to find that S1mple had changed his playing style, obviously to prevent G2 from targeting him.
In the first half, S1mple was everywhere like a nightmare, running around the map like crazy and scoring 20 kills in the half.
After entering the second half, S1mple and Electronic Brother used various smoke mixtures to seal the victory, but G2 was ultimately unable to recover.
In the end, G2's map selection was won by NAVI with a score of 16:11.
Picture 2 shows NAVI’s active choice of Nuke. This map is also NAVI’s strongest map. They have recently had an undefeated streak in Nuclear Crisis, and they are obviously confident in their map.
After entering the second picture, Jiang Yang said that the game was wonderful.
In this NAVI selection map, G2, as the defensive side, got 10 rounds in the first half.
And after switching to the second half, G2 also won the pistol round in the second half.
The score once reached 11:6.
But just when Jiang Yang thought that G2 could push all the way, in the second minute of the second half, G2 rushed into NAVI's strong defensive area and was directly overturned.
Seeing this, Jiang Yang had an inexplicable hunch that G2 was going to lose.
This feeling is strange, but it is the truth.
Because the feeling that G2 gave him was obviously not as detailed as the NAVI team.
Between the scores of the two sides, the score came to 12:15.
G2 was one point away from ending the game.
At the beginning of this point, G2 chose to speed up and play A. At the beginning, they relied on props to assist and forced a 3-for-3 infield.
At this moment, NIKO has already touched the third floor.
Everyone's hearts were attracted by NIKO's operation.
He also successfully caught an amazing timing. NAVI never expected that someone would come from behind so early. The whole audience exclaimed for NIKO and were so scared that they did not dare to breathe.
NIKO also successfully caught timing and reached the third floor. He also successfully saw S1mple in the yellow room.
Although NIKO has a Sand Eagle in his hand, as the best Sand Eagle user in the world, everyone believes that NIKO can create miracles.
NIKO was also worried about problems on the third floor, so he took aim calmly and then opened fire on S1mple.
But to everyone's surprise, NIKO aimed at S1mple's head and shot three times in succession, but failed to hit S1mple. Instead, S1mple turned around and killed him with a sniper shot!
The sand eagle that should have been driven like an arm in NIKO's hands has lost its due role at this moment.
The weapon that NIKO had trusted since his debut failed to hit the target it should have.
Sha Ying betrayed his prince after all.
Everyone in the audience was confused, the commentator was exclaiming, the people in the Steel Helmets were dumbfounded, and G2 fans were heartbroken.
The moment NIKO was killed, the hunter in the yellow room was also killed.
NIKO messed up everything, just like Boston 3 years ago, he failed to hit that crucial shot.
Jiang Yang's eyes widened when he saw this scene in the audience.
In his opinion, the shot should not be empty.
These three fatal shots were so suffocating.
This round was very frustrating for G2, and the game was dragged into overtime.
Although G2 worked hard to score points in overtime, and the game was once again dragged into overtime, G2 still failed to seize the opportunity.
In the end, this fateful showdown between superstars ended with G2's defeat and NIKO's defeat.
Under the cheers of the audience, S1mple took the lead and won NAVI's first Major trophy, which was also S1mple's own.
The air column machines erupted in the audience, golden ribbons fluttered, and everyone cheered for the victory of the 'born winner'.
Jiang Yang captured this gorgeous scene with his mobile phone.
But at the same time, he noticed NIKO in the corner who was reluctant to leave.
As the world's top shooter, NIKO's career is also regrettable. He fell to the Major champion twice.
They all left the field with key shot errors, which was really torturous.
Jiang Yang had experienced the excruciating feeling of leaving the field with a key shot not long ago.
But NIKO is even more perverted, because he was in the Major finals twice.
Three boxes in Boston, third floor in Stockholm.
Fate didn't seem to favor this guy.
If you want to find some reasons, you can only say that S1mple was carried into the finals by NAVI, while NIKO carried G2 into the finals.
NIKO's performance this time is already a top-notch operation for a rifleman.
It's just a pity that NAVI performed better. Now S1mple has a perfect team.
Although G2 tried their best, the upper limit of this G2 is still not enough.
But in comparison, whether it was NIKO or S1mple, Jiang Yang couldn't really feel their emotions.
He only hopes that next time he will be on the stage, no matter whether he wins or loses.
