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

Chapter 130 You Don’t Want Your…

March 21th, 2024

Although the cold spring rain no longer falls over the city of Copenhagen, thick dark clouds still linger in the sky.

At noon today, Su Zhe's NIP team also ushered in their first round of the legendary group of this Major.

Their opponent is G2, who have won two games against them in a row.

After learning the result, everyone on NIP was lamenting how bad their team's luck was in this Major.

It would have been fine if every game in the opening match was against a strong team, but after finally entering the Legends group, we met G2, a team we had never won a single game against.

Although the teams that entered the Legend Group early are all world-class teams, no one is sure of winning when they meet each other.

But after entering the CS2 version, G2, with a sniper like Xiao Hai, is definitely the biggest nemesis of their NIP lineup that relies on a breakthrough player as the single core.

The experience of losing two games to them before told them that it would be very difficult to beat G2.

CSBOY live broadcast room.

Ma Xixi looked at the NIP players who were obviously anxious in the contestant seats and couldn't help but sigh:
"Ever since Xiaozhe joined NIP, the team has become a dark horse. First, they made it to the semifinals at Katowice, and then they made it all the way to the Legends group at this Major."

"They haven't lost many games in the past few months, and the team they've lost the most to is G2 Esports, but now they've run into them again."

"There's no shady dealings going on with this Major tournament group, right?"

Mo chimed in, "Yeah, if they were to face NAVI or Faze, NIP would have beaten them before, so their chances of winning would be higher if they met them again. But against G2, it all depends on the performance of both players."

"But after all, NIP just finished their opening game and are in great form, and G2 hasn't played a single game recently. If NIP can continue their previous form, they might have a chance of winning."

[Indeed, few teams that directly advanced to the Legendary Group in the past had a good start.]

[Although, I guess G2 will complete the three captures today]

[That's not necessarily true. G2 has already been defeated by NAVI four times, and NIP beat NAVI again in Katowice last time, so NIP > G2, right?]

【That's true now! 】

【Enterprise-level understanding!!】

[It's like the lion beats the mouse, the mouse beats the elephant, right?]

【.】

The live broadcast room was buzzing with discussion, and many fans who liked Xiaozhe were also discussing from their own perspectives how NIP could defeat G2 today.

But these are just memes and self-consolation. Everyone knows how strong G2 is now.

Although Niko and huNter have been in poor condition since entering CS2, their performance on the field has been up and down.

But the kid's current condition already puts him far ahead among all the snipers.

Even a "chosen one" like Zaiwu rarely takes out a sniper rifle in today's competitions.

However, the competition has not officially started yet, and no one can predict the outcome, so they still have hope in their hearts.

After all, both G2 and NIP are synonymous with miracles, but the directions of the miracles are different.

It's just that G2 can once again carry forward their corporate culture...

The scene of the game.

The BP results of the two teams have just ended, and the Bo1 map for both sides is fixed on the Desert City.

Su Zhe and his teammates were seizing the opportunity to warm up in the Aimbotz map, while coach djL was cheering everyone on from behind.

"The draft and selection results were good. G2 hasn't used Desert City much in recent tournaments, and they don't like to force control of the middle lane to engage in firefights. This is good news for us. At least in the early stages of the attack, we won't be under too much pressure."

In the CSGO arena, although the map in the game will not change for a long time, each team has its own style on a certain map.

Some teams like to deploy their lineup through the middle lane on the Mi La La map, while some teams like to start from the A and B bomb sites.

This also leads to the strange phenomenon of mutual restraint between teams in professional competitions.

"Although we've lost to them twice in a row, that was in the past. Forget about the unpleasantness of the past and bring out the form you had in your opening three-game winning streak! They're not invincible!"

"come on! Come on!"

"..."

After giving encouragement, DJL talked about many details about the game.

The general meaning is to take it one point at a time. Don't get negative emotions because you are behind in the score, and don't underestimate the opponent because of a temporary lead.

After explaining all the precautions, DJL bumped fists with everyone one by one and let the team members prepare for the game on their own.

es3tag noticed that Su Zhe was looking a little too serious, so he asked with concern, "Are you nervous?"

Su Zhe was staring at the bot on the screen, quickly positioning and shooting. After hearing his teammates' words, he turned around and smiled, "It's okay, I'm not very nervous. I'm just thinking about how to win the game."

k0nfig on the side gave him a thumbs up: "As expected of you, you are still so confident!"

Su Zhe smiled and said, "We've already lost to them twice, so it's not shameful to lose again. But what if we can win?"

When meeting G2 again, the other members of NIP may be very nervous. After all, losing to a team too many times will really make people afraid to fight.

But Su Zhe is different.

Compared to a few months ago, with the assistance of the system, his personal strength has obviously improved a lot.

So he wanted to try his current self and see if there would be a different result when facing the opponent he had lost to before.

k0nfig smiled and nodded after hearing this, then shouted, "That's right! Even if we lose to G2, it's okay. No one's optimistic about us anyway, but what if we win?"

"Use our best strength to defeat them!"

After hearing k0nfig's call, everyone couldn't help but smile.

Su Zhe suddenly thought of something and asked in the voice chat: "headtr1ck, are you confident that you can beat G2?"

headtr1ck was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Of course!"

Su Zhe smiled and continued, "Then it depends on you whether you can restrain the child's sniper."

headtr1ck: "Ah? Me?"

Su Zhe continued to tease, "You don't want my sticker to lose value, do you? If I lose the game..."

headtr1ck slammed the table. "Fuck! He's just a kid! We were in the same youth training camp!"

"Don't worry! Leave him to me! Even if peak s1mple comes, I'll beat him into a pulp!"

"Hahahaha!" Everyone finally couldn't help but burst into laughter. The slight tension before the game completely disappeared.

Soon, under the notification of the referee of the event, both sides began to enter the competition server.

Map: Lost City in the Desert

G2: Niko, huNter- (cousin), nexa, HooXi (breathing), m0NESY (child)
NIP: es3tag, k0nfig, headtr1ck, REZ, Arrow
NIP started as the attacker.

Su Zhe just entered the server and saw someone talking on the public screen. Niko: Hey, what were you guys laughing at? I can hear you from so far away.

k0nfig: Arrow said he wants to have a 1v1 solo with you in the middle lane today.
Arrow:.
k0nfig: Oh, not finished yet, it’s a solo between fire sticks
Niko: Really?! My AWP is better than m0NESY's.
Arrow: Looks like I have to give you a sniper rifle. I finally found a way to win the game.
Niko: Who are you looking down on? After the game, I'll find you for a solo match offline.
REZ: Is it what I thought, going to a hotel room and doing a solo? Are you going to be like NIKO?
Arrow＆Niko: Get out of here, Nantong!
While both sides were chatting, all ten players loaded into the server and the competition officially began.

"Okay, the game's on! Let's check the time!"

"9, 8, 7"

"correct."

After confirming that his time was synchronized with Mo's, Masisi made his usual opening remarks:

Welcome to the first day of the Legends Group Stage at the Copenhagen Major, featuring NIP vs. G2. I'm Masisi, the commentator.

"I'm the commentator, CaptainMo."

"I'm Assistant Asuka Haru~"

"Who are you! Don't you have a keyboard?"

【I am 6657 playing the game】

【I am the audience Aladdin】

【I am the assistant husband】

[Masisi, I'll kill you! ]

Masisi glanced at the barrage of comments and then focused his attention on the game in front of him:

"Okay, let's move on to the pistol round. NIP started as the attacker, and they had a lot of items. They used two smoke and four flashes to gather outside A1. Arrow still managed to get the P250 under these circumstances. That's a really high tactical advantage!"

MO laughed and said, "How could it not be great? If it weren't for Arrow, NIP would have probably gone back to their respective homes for vacation. It's because of this understanding that they've been winning the recent competitions."

Masisi smiled and nodded, even feeling a sense of pride.

After all, it was unthinkable before that their own players could become the absolute main force of the European team.

He then brought the topic back to the game: "Look at the props NIP is aiming at, they're planning to use the smoke from the platform to attack the police directly."

"G2 is using a conventional 212-- defensive formation. If they can keep Niko, who's heading to the VIP to get information about the mid lane, out of the battlefield, they have a chance of winning the pistol round!"

"It all depends on how well they can sustain fire on the A site. G2 is using two guns to defend A1."

"The smoke bombs are here! I'll use the high flash! You guys leave A2 first!"

As es3tag's order was given, Su Zhe, who was in the first position on Building A2, immediately stepped out.

"There's no one at the bun site. He might be hiding behind the long box." After reminding his teammates through the microphone, Su Zhe jumped directly off the bun site and walked towards the long box.

es1tag, who was preparing to play A3 the second time, was immediately delighted when he heard this, thinking that G2 had bet on B in this round.

Although G2's current commander is Breathe instead of Nexa, who knows if the two of them influence each other?

As a result, he had just relaxed his vigilance and came out of A1 when he was frightened by the CT who was close to him, and then he was shot down by the child's double guns.

Fortunately, k0nfig behind him was quick enough to follow up with a Glock bullet and completed the headshot.

"A one-for-one trade! A great win! It all depends on whether we can kill Nexa behind the longbox! Nexa wants to pull out and actively seek a kill from A1, but Arrow's movement speed is so fast! He goes straight around the side of the longbox and completes the kill!"

After Su Zhe got the kill, he rushed directly towards the police house.

Just when everyone thought that the B bomb site was cleared, Niko, who was originally separated from the battlefield by the smoke bomb, stepped on the chair next to the long box and sneaked out through the smoke.

With the edge vision of the smoke bomb, he used the USP in his hand to successfully kill the unsuspecting k0nfig in seconds.

Seeing this, REZ hurriedly shot back, but after Niko got the kill, he jumped back into the smoke.

"Don't worry about him! Plant the bomb first! The opponent's B point defense is coming back soon!" The deceased es3tag hurriedly gave orders in the voice.

After hearing this, headtr1ck immediately got behind the long box and buried a bag in the direction of the police's house.

After hearing the notification tone indicating the successful bombing, Su Zhe said on the microphone: "headtr1ck, come and help me set up the position. The enemy may be closer to the police station!"

"coming!"

As headtr1ck just walked to Su Zhe's side, a flash of lightning exploded in front of his head.

Headtr1ck, who was standing in the middle of the road and eating white food, was instantly pulled out and killed by two CTs.

Because Su Zhe was always close to the cover, he was not targeted by the fire at the first moment.

When the vision on the screen began to gradually return, Su Zhe looked at the still blurry picture and immediately positioned himself and opened fire.

"Boom!"

Arrow kills huNter with a headshot from a P250.

Arrow kills HooXi with a headshot from a P250

"WDF! What the hell is this!" He was a little confused after his breath was cut off by the second shot.

When they met again on the field a month later, he felt that this new guy was even more terrifying.

"Ah! The positioning of these two shots is a bit outrageous! Two hits, two kills!" Ma Xixi exclaimed, "After getting the kill from my cousin, he directly sucked it onto the head of another one. This is not even acting, right?"

"There's only NIKO left who's in the police jump position. Arrow, who's in the police home position, is a known card. And there's REZ who's under the sandwich who's completely unknown."

"Could Niko have thought of that? Yes! But Rez has never faced a gun!"

Seeing this situation, Ma Xixi was speechless: "Another classic. After getting three kills, the big brother left himself with a 1v1 endgame."

After seeing REZ killed, Su Zhe hid deep in the police house to prevent Niko from rushing towards him again.

"Don't be anxious. The person on the other side doesn't have pliers. Wait for him to unpack." es3tag reminded.

As the big brother in the team, it is impossible for NIko to pick up pliers in the pistol round, and he didn't see any pliers falling during the kill just now.

After hearing the reminder, Su Zhe had an idea in his mind.

After hearing the sound of the bag dripping in the headset, he began to count in his mind, but his attention was still on the crosshairs that were pointing past the point.

Suddenly, after seeing a CT figure pull out, his crosshairs immediately made a slight prediction based on the opponent's speed.

"Bang bang bang!"

Arrow kills Niko with a headshot from a P250

Finally, when the third bullet was fired, Niko was killed.

"It was a close call! Arrow's personal abilities are still top-notch!" Masisi exclaimed. "First, the two of them took over all of the Jing family's defenses, and then they got Nikko's kill in a 1v1."

"This positioning and reaction is so exaggerated no matter how many times I see it!"

Mo nodded and agreed, "It's really great! And the feel came quickly. I got a quad kill in the pistol round."

"If we can win the spear round later and gain an early advantage, NIP will have a good chance of winning this Bo1!"
