CS: Demon King C, you said I was a genius?

Chapter 122 Attack of Arrow
Tuesday, April 2024, 3.

The long-awaited sunny day finally arrived over the city of Copenhagen.

NIP also ushered in the third round of their opening match of this Major.

Whether at home or abroad, countless viewers are looking forward to this Bo3 match.

It's not just that the two teams have a large fan base, but more importantly, many people want to see what kind of sparks will be created when the rookie rifleman Su Zhe faces Dian Zi Ge and A Le, two star riflemen of the older generation, in the game.

After all, these two "veterans" were once briefly called the world's best riflemen.

If Su Zhe can defeat C9 in today's game, or carry the entire game, then everyone's assessment of his strength will be raised to a higher level.

After all, the audience is not professional and most of them are just there to watch the fun.

Even if NIP beat Team X yesterday, what does it matter? In their eyes, only teams like G2 and Little Bee with top-level star players can be considered truly strong teams.

At this time, Su Zhe had followed his teammates into the player seats in the venue and began to debug the equipment.

"Arrow, are you nervous for today's game?" k0nfig asked while adjusting the headphone cord in his hand.

"Nervous? Not bad."

Su Zhe's answer was casual, but his expression seemed serious.

Before going to bed last night, he specially trained the five current players of C9 one by one in the [Simulated Training Field].

The winning rate in gunfights with Brother Electronic is about 50-50, while the winning rate with Ale is about 64-70.

He has always recognized the strength of Brother Electronic. After all, many people who don’t play the game CSGO have heard of this ID. He is also one of the two fathers of the once peak NAVI.

As for Ale, it surprised him a little. He didn't expect that even though he was injured, his winning rate in a gunfight with him was still so high.

If he were in peak condition, Su Zhe really couldn't imagine how strong his personal abilities were.

Facing the dual-core C9, he feels that his team's winning rate is not very high. This is just putting aside the tactical level and speaking only from the perspective of personal strength.

Su Zhe sighed inwardly. Just as es3tag said yesterday, today will be a tough battle!

However, he did not feel much fear or nervousness because of the strength of his opponent.

After all, no one can predict the players' condition for sure, and we have to wait until the end of the game to know who wins and who loses.

After hearing Su Zhe's answer, k0nfig smiled and said, "Keep doing it! I feel like my touch is really good today, so we should have no problem defeating C9 together!"

Soon after everyone finished debugging the equipment, they entered the Bo3 map selection stage.

es3tag banned the Anubis map right away. Besides the fact that they themselves don't play this map, Anubis is also one of C9's strong maps, so this ban can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

C9 followed suit and banned the Death Tower.

REZ laughed when he saw this scene: "Is the opponent banning the map for themselves, or for me? They even banned the Death Tower."

es3tag raised an eyebrow and said, "Isn't that normal? They haven't picked this map in the past six months, and we even lost a game on it. It's normal for them not to dare to use it."

"Which map do you want to play in the first map? Small town, ancient ruins, or desert maze?"

In their recent matches, the win rates on these three maps are similar, so any of them can be chosen.

Su Zhe hesitated for a moment and then said, "I can do either. Let's see which map the opponent is not good at."

DJL suggested from behind, "Let's choose Small Town. C9 has only played three Small Town matches in the last three months. They're definitely not as skilled in this map as you are."

es3tag nodded and directly locked down Purgatory Town.

C9 followed closely behind and chose the Death Amusement Park in Figure .

After both sides banned one map each, the third map fell on the ancient ruins, which both sides were good at.

After the BP session ended, everyone gave each other fist bumps to encourage each other.

"Come on! Let's become the first team from the Challenge Division to advance to the Legend Division!"

"I love your confidence! Come on! Come on!"

After the final warm-up session, both sides entered the competition server.

……

A certain tooth live broadcast room.

"Who will win between C9 and NIP? This question is about NIP! I even wrote in my Major homework that NIP can advance with a 3-0 record!"

"You ask why NIP won? Come on! I'll show you why!"

Danking answered questions from his friends in the livestream while logging into his Steam account: "See, there's no one here! It's because Xiaozhe is my Steam friend! Don't worry! I'm guaranteed to win!"

【? ? ? ? ? ? ? 】

[The biggest stain on Xiaozhe's career is adding you as a CS friend! ]

[I want to watch EDG's game today! I'm going to make a scene if I'm not there!]

[Holy crap! You told me that's Ah Le in this shot? How come he's even fatter than Fatty Ball?]

To be honest, C9's chances of winning today are quite high. Le was already in great form in Katowice a few months ago. I'm afraid it would be difficult for Xiaozhe to hold up alone.

[Can the other NIP players be more capable today? If they can perform a little better, they might win today.]

[Keep going, Xiaozhe! You were also the one who helped me win 3-0 in the major!]

Danking looked at the comments of various rhythms and a smile appeared on his face.

After looking up at the nearly 10 VIPs, he clicked on the Heili group and said, "As long as NIP can win a map today, I'll roll a Nine-Headed Golden Snake. Okay, then I can participate for just ten cents."

"Okay, the game's on! Xiaozhe is indeed the big brother of NIP. He's getting treated like a P250 right from the start!"

After the preparation time was over, Su Zhe picked up the P250 on the ground, put on half armor, and rushed towards Banana Road.

This round, they planned to first gain control of Banana Road, and then speed up and launch a bomb attack on B site.

The main reason is that in the small town map, C9 mainly had Fat Ball and Marshal P guarding the B bomb site together. Es3tag certainly wanted to try to take advantage of the weak point to win the pistol round.

After Su Zhe entered the Banana Road, he immediately stood at the tree position and faced the stone slab. The others tried to fight in the middle lane, so that C9 could not get their initial offensive intention for the time being.

"There are no players on the opposite banana lane. They may be defending at the back point." Su Zhe spoke on the microphone and expressed his own guess as well.

After es3tag noticed that the opposing mid laner was no longer sending out players to gather information, he said, "k0nfig, come back from the side lane. The five of us will group together and push towards Banana Lane."

"OK! Here it comes!"

After the five people gathered in the middle of Banana Road, they followed Su Zhe's lead and slowly and quietly walked across the stone slabs.

Seeing that the entire Banana Lane was deserted, es3tag said, "The other side is probably defending the back point with the two Bs. Start positioning yourself and follow my instructions to throw the props."

They used quite a lot of props in this round, two smoke balls and two fire balls, and except for Su Zhe, all of them were armor-less Glocks.

es3tag made this decision because he wanted to clear the point quickly, plant the bomb, and wait for the opponent to return to defense.

After hearing this, Su Zhe also made preparations for advance aiming and was ready to step on the accelerator to accelerate at any time.

"NIP's five players gathered together to prepare for a B attack, but C9 bet on a 3B defense with no information, and they actually bet right!" Danking commented while observing the situation on the field.

"How effective is NIP's explosive bomb? As long as we can give Xiaozhe a chance to face them head-on, getting two kills should be no problem."

"The smoke from the police house and the coffin was sealed. No problem. The gun line on Fatty's side was blocked. The fire from the three boxes also burned to Marshal P's feet. He threw a fire extinguisher to protect himself."

"Master Huo, who was at the critical point, was also instantly struck by the flash! This wave of props is quite good! Now it all depends on their marksmanship!"

The moment es3tag ordered the bomb to explode, Su Zhe aimed at the position of the coffin and pulled out. After finding that the opponent was not standing near the coffin smoke, he directly aimed at the B bomb site and pulled towards the position under the stage.

Suddenly, when he saw a CT pulled out from the right side of the three boxes, he instantly swung his crosshairs upwards.

"Bang bang bang!"

Arrow kills Perfecto with a headshot using a P250

"What a fierce shot! A direct headshot took out Marshal P, who was trying to steal three boxes. Master Huo at the dead center also wanted to pull out and shoot him! He actually stole the es3tag that was lying on the side!"

Su Zhe was originally setting up the coffin next to the smoke, to prevent the opponent from trying to mix in the smoke and seize Timing.

After hearing the sound of the USP firing at the dead center, his sight turned instantly. After seeing the exposed CT, he quickly fine-tuned and completed the second positioning.

"boom!"

[Arrow kills HObbit with a headshot from a P250] "That's accurate! He's instantly killed as soon as he shows his head! It has to be Arrow again! Fatball originally wanted to hide in the smoke, but seeing that all his teammates were dead, he didn't dare to leave. He had to retreat to the church and wait for his teammates to return to defend."

"But NIP had already set up their packs and everyone was finding their positions to start setting up their guns. Ah Le instantly killed one of them, but it was useless. K0nfig's follow-up gun speed was also very fast!"

In the next round of finishing shots, Fatty wanted to steal the side timing from the church position, but he failed to steal the opportunity and was instead trapped and killed for nothing.

The only remaining Electronic Brother was helpless in the face of the 1V3 endgame. After destroying three boxes of REZ, he was pulled out and killed by Su Zhe.

"Xiaozhe's play was awesome, reminiscent of my past style. The first two kills at the beginning of the attack were crucial. If they had gotten them a little slower, we could have forced C9 to retreat to zone A."

After seeing NIP win the pistol round, Danking's tone was quite excited.

In fact, he is not suitable to be a professional CSGO event commentator, not because his commentary is not professional enough.

It just so happens that he is more professional than most commentators in the industry and has a deeper understanding of the game. After all, he was one of the strongest CNCS players back then.

But his commentary is too subjective. Other anchors would at least act a little, but he doesn't even bother and just starts bragging.

However, because of his unique skills in attracting fans, he always praises the person with the highest traffic, and the program effects are difficult for others to imitate.

The number of viewers in the live broadcast room is also unmatched by other commentators.

After losing the pistol round, C9 didn't get many kills, so they could only equip a fully armored Desert Eagle, which was no different from giving it away for free.

So Fat Ball directly chose pure E to quickly get through the economic situation. The five of them gathered in the middle lane and wanted to take down NIP's gun as much as possible.

As a result, he was given a great advantage by REZ who went into the sewer at the beginning of the game. He got four kills directly with a curry.

In the end, Master Huo was shot down by headtr1ck.

"What a loss!" Fatty said helplessly after calculating NIP's finances.

Originally, as long as you can knock down one or two of the opponent's rifles, you can prevent the opponent from going all-in after losing the pistol round.

But he didn't expect that the five-person anti-clearing team he planned would become a tool for the other party to improve their skills.

Fatty quickly cleared his mind of all the random thoughts and began to plan the tactics for the pistol round.

Thanks to their previous economic accumulation, they can team up with FAMAS to equip all their weapons with spears this round, but they have a few items.

In this situation, they can only increase their winning rate by taking the initiative to seize opportunities for the first kill.

Fatty hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Let's go with the 3A2B formation this round. You two can control the second floor at point A and catch the opponent's solo libero. As long as we can gain a numerical advantage, this round will be much easier for us."

The preparation time was over. According to the arrangement of the opening tactics, after Fat Ball arrived at the B site, he immediately cooperated with Marshal P's groove fire and clamped a middle cigarette of the banana road. At that time, NIP suddenly RushB unreasonably.

Brother Electronic and Ale entered Building A2 from the boiler room and the straw cart respectively to gain early control of the map.

Su Zhe, who was standing in the tree position, saw the defensive smoke given by the opponent and said on the microphone: "Can you catch a banana and dodge? I will advance to the position in front of the stone slab."

He didn't want C9 to have an easy time in the early game just because of a smokescreen.

"Okay! Wait a minute." es3tag understood what Su Zhe meant, and directly took out a flash grenade from the bandit's mouth and threw it at the target.

At the moment of the flash, Su Zhe immediately stepped out in the smoke.

Marshal P, who had been peeking at the stone slab, immediately covered his eyes and jumped back into the shelter.

The fat ball on the sandbag was also startled. After hearing the approaching footsteps of Jiaodao, he thought that the other party was going to speed up, so he threw out another stone-like cigarette.

After all, Su Zhe still has a bad reputation, and he is really afraid that this kid will do something unreasonable.

Su Zhe also smiled when he saw the defensive smoke. This meant that if the opponent used double B defense, he would have used up all the smoke at the beginning.

As long as you gain control of the stone slab, it will be easy to take down the B site with a bomb.

As a result, just as he was about to tell his teammates about this idea, the information that k0nfig was killed appeared in the upper right corner of the screen.

"There are two people on the A2 floor!" k0nfig, who was killed, looked depressed. He did not go up the spiral staircase at the first time, so he did not receive the first wave of double-teaming from Brother Dianzi and Ale.

As a result, with the help of the sudden flash of headtr1ck's boiler room, he was just about to get the information of Building A2.

As a result, when I went up the spiral staircase and headed towards the corridor, I found two rifles parked side by side on the opposite side.

What team would have rifles mounted on the second floor? A double mount at that!
Seeing this, Su Zhe immediately told the other party that there was no defensive smoke at the B bomb site.

After summarizing the situation, es3tag said, "headtr1ck, go from the middle lane to the link! See if there's anyone on the other side's link."

"REZ, let's go to the banana road together. As long as we get the information that there is someone connected, we will speed up immediately after the slate smoke clears!"

As long as it is confirmed that C9 is a double B defense and does not have many props, es3tag is confident that he can take down the "second treasure" of the once "three lucky treasures".

After hearing es1tag's instructions, headtr3ck slowly and quietly moved towards the middle lane.

After peeked towards the connection position, he just saw a CT figure passing by.

"Connect with someone!"

"No need to push forward, just come to Banana Road and meet us!" es3tag made a decision immediately after hearing the information.

Afterwards, he observed that the smoke from the slate was about to dissipate and immediately stepped quietly across the slate, but as soon as his position was revealed, the screen turned black.

"Two people on the sandbags!" the dead es3tag shouted hurriedly.

He thought that the opponent's double B defense with few props must be guarding at the back point, and he didn't expect there would be anyone there.

After seeing his teammate fall to the ground, Su Zhe didn't even bother to ask REZ behind him whether to dodge. He just aimed at the position on the sandbag and pulled out.

"Da da da~"

Arrow kills Boombl47 with an AK-4

Even though he failed to complete the headshot by shooting from low angle, the bullets that penetrated the flesh still killed Fatty instantly.

Marshal P thought that the opponent would only come out when he dodged, but he still underestimated Su Zhe's aggressiveness.

He immediately hid behind the sandbag and prepared to dodge, but now that Fatty was dead, he couldn't run away.

Marshal P then made up his mind and took big steps forward. The moment he saw the bandit's figure, he heard a "bang!"

"Da da da~"

Arrow kills Perfecto with an AK-47 headshot.

"He's truly worthy of being called the Attacking Xiaozhe! Even with es3tag's free kill, he used his own strength to destroy the double defense. Rez behind him didn't even see his shadow!"

"Master Huo, who was connected, was the first to return to defend, but the other two at site A didn't move. Did they think NIP would switch sites and attack A?"

"Do they think the commander of NIP is my cousin?"

After Su Zhe got the kill, he immediately took REZ into the bomb site. At this time, heatr1ck had also arrived.

After he saw that no one was at the police house, he immediately came to the position behind the second box and said, "Just get off the stage and pack it up. I'll build the church!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a CT coming out from the church. Master Huo had already returned to the church and just missed the timing for him to see the police.

Although his brain didn't react, the hand holding the mouse had already started positioning and firing.

"Da da da~"

Arrow kills HObbit with a headshot from an AK-47

Danking couldn't help but open his mouth wide when he saw this: "Another kill! Xiaozhe killed three people in a row and directly broke the defense of point B! This C9 is not good enough!"

[Wow, that perfect dry pull with exaggerated reaction positioning, this C9's timing is really bad.]

[I suggest that Xiaozhe play the role in the second part of Attack on Titan. Does he only have the W key on his keyboard? ]

[Hahahaha! Fatty was so scared when he saw Xiaozhe suddenly poop on the sandbag just now that he shuddered.]

[We need to move Dianzi or Ale to defend area B. The other three are no match for Xiaozhe in the front!]

As the C4 security success prompt sounded, the two players on double A defense had no intention of returning to defense. Neither of them had pliers, and it would take a lot of time just to get there.

But in the following rounds, the two spears they saved did not play much of a role.

In the early stages of the game, NIP began to score points, although C9 actively communicated and defended within the team.

However, Electronic Brother and Ale, who had not gotten many kills in the early stage, both had a cold feeling.

If both thighs cannot exert force, it will be even more difficult for others to stand up.

The score went all the way to 5-0.

As the commander, Fat Ball finally couldn't stand the pressure and called the first timeout of the game.
