CS: Oh no, he's really become the GOAT!

Chapter 18 The Rifleman's Romance
The emergence of a brand-new pre-loan unit has given Yang Yu the possibility of new loan capabilities.

At the same time, the notification that his credit score had improved also caught his attention.

Previously, he had relied on speculation to obtain his new abilities.

Now that he can check the credit score rating required for the ability advance, it is very convenient. Moreover, Yang Yu also wants to see what conditions are required for the abilities he wants to obtain.

"Look at mine."

Yang Yu's data has changed dramatically in the past month. In his opinion, he should have already reached the threshold of a professional career—well, the kind that is somewhat specialized in one area.

His basic skills have undergone a qualitative change compared to when he first started.

Looking at the overall data, apart from 'item usage' being a bit low, most of the data has reached the passing grade.

However, Yang Yu was helpless when it came to using this prop. He wasn't just good at dry pulling; he didn't know how to use the prop at all.

But he really doesn't have any talent when it comes to props. His understanding of the parabolic trajectory of props is always a bit off. Fixed props are okay, but those props that he throws out randomly are just like Broky, a living prop king.

Therefore, now that a new pre-funded position has appeared, he does not intend to put these pre-funded abilities into items. He will spend more time studying fixed-point items, which will also allow him to become the King of Scrolls.

Aside from using items, map comprehension remains his weakest skill.

However, Yang Yu discovered that he actually had some talent in CSGO. No matter what kind of shooting skills he learned, he could quickly learn other skills after learning one.

For example, B1T's headshot talent only made him better at headshots by chance and gave him some better habits. However, his handling of the rhythm and control of information in the game were all things he figured out on his own.

After gaining an understanding of the town map from ropz, Yang Yu gradually grasped techniques such as perspective (objects appear larger when closer and smaller when farther away), strategic positioning, and using the terrain to split himself into 1v1 situations.

Now his understanding of other maps has improved a lot, and the next step is to practice more to gradually improve his proficiency.

Therefore, Yang Yu ultimately chose to focus this new ability on improving firepower.

Improving firepower essentially means enhancing your ability and awareness to engage in direct gunfights.

Among the new abilities, there is a way to check the 'reputation score' required for the ability, and Yang Yu immediately gave it a try.

"To view the reputation score required for 'Carrier Awareness'..."

"The credit score required for 'Consciousness of Carrying Things' is S!"

Yang Yu's current credit rating only allows him to access B-level capabilities. The 'Consciousness of Carrying Things' is far beyond his capabilities, so Yang Yu has no choice but to give up.

If he could anticipate the 'carrying consciousness', he would be completely clear-headed in the game, and the opponent would have no idea how to play.

At this moment, Yang Yu suddenly had another whimsical idea.

"Reputation score rating required to view the peak performance of S1mple in 2021".

"The credit score required for S1mple's peak performance in 2021 is SSS!"

Wow, so S wasn't the finish line after all!
After learning the cost of the advance limit, Yang Yu began to check the required reputation score ratings for things like 'Karrigan's command talent', 'IM's preemptive fire', 'FlameZ's breakthrough ability', and 'device's stability'. He then got many different results.

Even among top-tier players, the reputation score ratings required for each of their various abilities differ.

For example, NIKO's aiming requires a reputation score rating of A.

However, Yang Yu was quite surprised by device's stability talent, which he could now use in advance.

Given that Device was planning a comeback recently, could it be that Device's performance has started to decline rapidly since its return, and it's no longer as stable as before?

In Yang Yu's mind, device stability is a skill that is as outstanding as NIKO's aiming ability.

This is all Yang Yu can speculate about now.

After reviewing the options, Yang Yu finally made a decision: he decided to use the new pre-support position for recoil control.

His current frontal firepower is not bad. The B1T's headshot talent makes him quite good at short bursts, and he can easily control 10 bullets.

But after 10 shots, I started to feel exhausted.

Ten shots are enough, but sometimes you inevitably face a large enemy force pressing in, and you might see three or four people at the same time. In such cases, Yang Yu can only exchange one or two shots at most.

But for a rifleman, the greatest appeal lies in the sweeping fire and movement.

Recently, as the ranked score has increased, the quality of the opponents has also improved, and they have become more closely grouped together. Yang Yu has encountered several instances where the opponents would all rush in at once, forcing Yang Yu to take one and a half hits before being finished off.

At those times, all Yang Yu could think about was how to fire and move, but he often ended up making mistakes.

Therefore, he had long desired to engage in a sweeping attack and then move on.

The skill of spraying and moving is closely related to recoil control, and in Yang Yu's memory, professional players who are good at recoil control include MoNan, DianDianGe, TeseS, Elige, NIKO, and Xantares.

These are all people who can compress 30 bullets from an AK into a single point.

But after careful consideration, Yang Yu ultimately chose Elige.

The others had no problem controlling recoil, but this guy from the liquid gun was best at killing people by controlling recoil.

And this guy is a famous recoil control instructor!

His recoil control might not be as dynamic, but it's the most academic and meticulous.

[Pre-emptively utilizing Elige's recoil control skills...]

The system responded quickly.

Elige's recoil control ability requires a reputation score rating of B.

[I've already used Elige's recoil control skills in advance...]

[Advance Cost: Achieve 500 kills using the Spray-and-Sweep technique on the Deathmatch server for 30 consecutive days...]

At that moment, Yang Yu felt as if he had been honing his skills on the shooting map for a long time.

He seemed to have memorized the trajectories of various firearms.

For example, regarding the AK47's bullet trajectory, he used to aim for the lower right corner, but now he clearly understands that to control the AK47, the bullet trajectory should be lower right, left, right, left.

The ballistics of other rifles also gradually became clear, and Yang Yu instantly transformed from a player who could only fire short bursts into a master of recoil control.

The images of sweeping fire and maneuvering that flashed through his mind made him even more excited, and he was ready to have a good fight.

Yang Yu then looked at the cost of this advance payment.

Compared to getting 911 backstabs in Infernal Town, getting 500 backstabs a day in this Deathmatch is relatively easy.

With the prepayment of the B1T headshot talent completed, he originally planned to continue playing Deathmatch every day to get a certain number of headshots and maintain his headshot skills.

Looking back now, it seems that getting headshots and spraying bullets to move around in this deathmatch are not contradictory.

I can just spray and strafe and get headshots!
Yang Yu felt that he was simply a genius!
[Congratulations, host, for fully paying the first advance payment. Would you like to begin the challenge mission?]

[Top Ranking Member: Reaching the top spot on any platform with a rating no lower than 1.5.]

PS: A professional player once said that 'rankings' are useless; what matters is the player's skill. But if you don't reach number one, how will the world know how powerful you are?
