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

Chapter 60: TuDou may become TOP1!
After watching RA play against Team A, Li Ze felt very relaxed and refreshed.

However, he was still somewhat unsatisfied, so on the recommendation of netizens, Li Ze went to watch the rematch between RA and Liquid.

"Holy crap, your potatoes?!"

"Their aim is so fierce against Team A, yet they're just chasing and beating up Liquid, those North American gunners. Is that reasonable?"

Li Ze originally thought that Team A was a team that focused on tactics, and their shooting skills were slightly inferior, so it was normal for them to be crushed by the outstanding RA.

However, as a North American powerhouse, Liquid has always been known for its marksmanship, and was once even nicknamed the "Aimbot Team".

In the current Liquid, Yekindar is known as a wild gunman, and Elige is a famous recoil control instructor.

This liquid really has nothing to offer except for marksmanship.

Li Ze's initial expectation for Yang Yu was that it would be quite good if they could fight back and forth.

In the second battle between RA and the liquid.

Yang Yu's marksmanship not only withstood the pressure and kept Liquid on the back foot by relentlessly seizing timings, but he also held his own in many head-on gunfights without flinching.

Seeing Elige scratching his head after being hit, Li Ze clicked his tongue in amazement:

"So you're also the one who won against Liquid?"

After watching the entire best-of-three series, Li Ze became a huge fan of Yang Yu.

Yang Yu's perspective and the feeling he displayed during the match reminded Li Ze of someone—Zaiwu.

Li Ze started playing CS:GO in 2019. He got into the game because of Qiezi's "WDNMD" and started watching the matches.

At that time, CNCS had achieved some results, and Li Ze watched the competition with great interest.

At this stage, an unfamiliar team came into Li Ze's view.

The rising star team from France, Little Bees.

A combination of a group of older players and a prodigy.

The least noticeable one at the time was this chubby guy, after all, the original lineup of the Little Bees consisted of some very famous old men.

Then, the little bee's performance left him completely bewildered.

This was the first time he had ever seen such a powerful and talented young man, who started carrying the team like crazy right from his debut in a top-tier competition.

Well, he didn't expect that those famous old men in France would be so incredibly weak.

Li Ze had a particularly deep impression of one of the matches.

At the 2019 Cologne tournament, Cargo won the MVP award with a rating of 1.33.

Yes, Zaiwu won the MVP award with a runner-up finish.

And what about his other four teammates?

The highest rating seems to be 0.98, and none of them are above 1.

Zaiwu single-handedly propelled the second-tier team, Little Bee, to second place in the Cologne Super Tournament, and even if his teammates had put in a little more effort at the end...

With a record of one green and four red, they were able to win the 2019 Cologne championship.

The experience of carrying cargo at that time also brought Li Ze new insights.

It turns out that as long as you kill enough people, you can raise your team to a level that doesn't match their abilities.

Another point is that CS:GO is ultimately a team game.

He now feels that the debut of the potato is like carrying a load.

They all emerged from obscurity, and then, through their individual abilities, led their teams to heights that were beyond their reach.

Can RA defeat Liquid and Alliance on its own?

Although he hasn't watched many matches in the past six months, Li Ze is still very familiar with these domestic teams.

RA's previous ability to defeat Liquid proves they've made progress.

However, the match against NAVI revealed some things – RA only reached the level of a top team on the map of the small town.

The other teams were completely crushed.

But once Potato came on, the whole team felt completely different.

He vaguely saw the shadow of that year when he carried the little bee and forcibly broke into the super event.

The more he looked at it, the more it seemed to resemble the real thing.

Overwhelmed by the urge to confide, he opened the forum and posted a message.

Let's welcome TuDou, the last genius of CS:GO!

RA has performed exceptionally well in the EPL, recently defeating Team A and completing an epic comeback by winning 12 consecutive points. Discussions about them are currently very heated on the forums.

Shortly after Li Ze posted his post, it was pushed to the top of the list.

[After observing TuDou's perspective and positioning in the last two matches, I can say that he's an absolute genius in terms of his game sense. I think he's at least at the level of Kuang Ge, and reaching the level of Huo Zai or Han Wang would be considered beneath him. His game intelligence is too high, his talent is visible to the naked eye. Even though he's in CNCS, he still gives me the feeling of a rising star...]

The past two days of matches have shown us this kid's explosive potential. Once he truly adapts to the top-tier arena, even if strong European teams analyze his strategies, given his demonstrated game intelligence and playstyle, I think his floor is definitely not low. As for his ceiling—I believe he has every chance of becoming a top player!

Below the post, Li Ze posted two maps, showing Yang Yu's match results against RA and Liquid.

I also think Potato is really strong. I've known about him since he debuted in ranked matches, but I didn't expect him to perform so well in tournaments.

I enjoyed watching Potato beat Dazhuang today, haha!

When Li Ze saw the first two comments, he thought he had received unanimous approval.

However, the subsequent comments were not so friendly.

Some players were quite restrained.

Don't take out a loan... the child is quite capable, but a loan wouldn't be suitable.

[It's too rushed. Although they might be eliminated by FaZe in the next playoff round, the Major is about to start, so we can see how they perform there.]

【As long as you are happy】

Forget about the loan. All I can say is that this young man is indeed talented, but whether he can stand out is still uncertain.

Other comments were less favorable.

[There's truth to the saying "one fan is worth ten haters." This guy has only played two matches since his debut, and he's already ranked number one in the lottery. Zaiwu also won over the audience step by step back then. When m0nesy played well, people just called him a genius. It took him a year in 2022 before people realized he was good. You're calling him the peak madman right away, that's a bit much.]

[The slogan is "Overload the forest," the advantage is "Forever young," would you like to see me reply to this?]

[Don't criticize the original poster. Yesterday, that guy himself said in an interview that he wanted to become number 1. This is just fans speaking up for the contestant.]

[This liquid is completely stunned. Well, no doubt about it. Team A has such a weak lineup and you're already struggling so much, and you're still trying to bait us?]

[The EPL is causing all this trouble]

Stop pretending, let's fast forward to the "Overload" segment. Every little genius will get to this segment.

Faced with these comments, Li Ze, a fan of potato chips, felt that he hadn't misjudged the people.

He has always been very good at judging people. For example, when he watched a competition, once he felt that a player was going to underperform, he would find out exactly what happened after the match.

So he didn't continue arguing in the forum!

Because he understands that words are sometimes powerless.

He just needs to wait quietly.

Waiting for the potato to shine on the field.

Potato may experience some setbacks during this process, but in the end, he will use his strength to throw this boomerang and slap these people in the face!

……

Although there was a match today, Yang Yu did not slack off.

He returned to the training room and completed the 500 sweeping attacks that were supposed to be finished in the deathmatch.

He then played two more ranked matches to maintain his momentum.

Today's match made him realize once again that those European teams are not invincible.

Those famous professional players in my memory, I could reach their level if I worked hard.

However, Yang Yu also understood that if he relied solely on his individual skills, he would have a hard time getting to the third map today.

Finally, it was the assistance of the "Shrimp in the Opposite Direction" that brought him to his peak condition.

What does it feel like to be at your peak?
In that state, Yang Yu essentially shut down everything outside of the game, allowing him to concentrate entirely on it. The opponent's tactics, possible strategies, the opposing player's thoughts…

He was able to clearly understand all these various contents.

Fortunately, he never slacked off in his training. After obtaining the '18 Boston Simulator', he has been practicing diligently and has become quite proficient in the amusement park map.

Otherwise, even if he had the [Shrimp in the opposite direction] to activate his form in today's match, it would have been difficult for him to win.

Yang Yu also understood that although the [Shrimp in the opposite direction] was very powerful, he couldn't rely on it. Mastering the basics and using numerical values ​​to deal with people was the most reasonable choice.

These training sessions are actually quite tedious, and after playing them for a while, you'll inevitably start to think about giving up.

But if it allows him to perform better in the game, then all this boredom and fatigue won't matter.

He really liked one of the original robot's lines: "Losing feels bad, so I never lose."

After the final battle, Yang Yu stretched and prepared to go wash up and go to bed.

At that moment, I was surprised to find that Xiao Ju was looking at her phone and secretly laughing.

Yang Yu doesn't like looking at other people's private information.

But he not only has good dynamic vision, but also good static vision.

He spotted Xiao Ju in the Perfect Community immediately.

The screen shows the post-match interface of the RA vs. A team game that just ended.

"Is it finished watching?" Yang Yu asked casually.

Xiao Ju, who was laughing like a fool, was startled. She tapped her phone randomly, making it look like she was going through the preparatory steps of the airplane sleep method.

Then Yang Yu saw that Xiao Ju accidentally clicked on the search bar.

Historical Searches:

【Jamyoung】

【Xiao Ju】

[Xiao Ju's Triple Kill]

[RA Freelancer]

【Ju Shen】

【…】

Noticing Yang Yu's gaze, Xiao Ju's hand trembled slightly, and then her entire body turned red from her ears to her face at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Yang Yu looked Xiao Ju up and down: "Didn't we say not to read the post-match comments?"

"You're done practicing your shooting, right? Then go back to your room to wash up and rest." Xiao Ju replied irrelevantly, and then ran out of the training room at breakneck speed.

Yang Yu couldn't suppress the smile on her face.

He also remembered that during his first match against RA, Xiao Ju gave him advice, telling him not to pay attention to post-match comments after the game.

Those discussions were completely useless for the game.

As a result, after these two matches were completed, there was an intense self-search in the community.

Yang Yu wasn't surprised that this happened to Danking, but it created a strong sense of contrast when it happened to Xiao Ju.

Yang Yu has known Xiao Ju for several months and has always felt that Xiao Ju has a stable personality.

He doesn't talk much, but he works exceptionally hard in CS:GO, practicing diligently in training matches every day.

He can remain very calm both during and outside of the game.

Sometimes Yang Yu felt that Jamyoung was like Faker, a monster player who was incredibly passionate about the game and extremely disciplined in his daily life.

It seems that he still cares about the discussions among netizens.

That makes sense, everyone wants to be praised by netizens for playing well.

Who doesn't want to put on an incredible performance and have their buddies say, "You're amazing!"

Enter the room.

Xiao Ju has already gone to take a shower.

Yang Yu sat next to him scrolling through his phone, and he also curiously clicked into the post-match comments section to take a look.

Then, seeing the praise from netizens in the comments section, a smile appeared on his face.

Indeed, it feels good to be praised by netizens.

He also saw the comments that made Xiao Ju smile.

[It wasn't just Potato who shone this time; Xiao Ju's performance was also extremely consistent. His head-on handling was incredibly calm and smooth, showcasing his top-tier composure. I think these two have the potential to become the anchor of CNCS's rise in the future. I hope these twin stars can grow up quickly...]

Is CNCS the anchor point for its rise?

He was also somewhat looking forward to that scene.

He thought about it and realized that the expectations for the rise of CNCS were too high, and he couldn't bear the burden alone.

Then he took a screenshot of the match results and started searching for it in his WeChat contacts.

……

Danking knew that RA was playing against Team A today—as Yang Yu's mentor, he had been following Yang Yu closely.

Watching Yang Yu finish her IV drip in the first scene, he was happy for her but also in considerable pain, so he didn't plan to actively search for information about her afterward.

But Danking still learned today that Yang Yu had made a strong comeback by winning 12 consecutive points when the match was at point against Team A. He didn't really want to know the result, but the CSGO community was now buzzing with this match.

Not only in China, but even on foreign online forums, many professional players joined the fray. S1mple even came to join the fray and kicked Dazhuang.

It's really too difficult for Danking not to know about Yang Yu.

Shortly after the match ended, Tianlu's manager was pulled aside for a talk by the boss, who also learned that Yang Yuben might be included in Tianlu's roster.

A potential prodigy has now become a rival player, and the community is full of people saying that RA is the future of CNCS, and TyLoo will only be glorious in defeat.

Seeing the manager's pale face as he walked out of the boss's office, it seemed the outcome wouldn't be good.

After cursing the manager a thousand times for being an idiot, Danking felt a little comforted.

Just then, his phone vibrated, and he subconsciously tapped the little red dot on WeChat.

The result was a photo sent to him by Yang Yu.

He clicked on it and saw that it was a picture of RA's match against Team A today.

Immediately following was a 60-second WeChat voice message.

Danking clicked on it with utter despair.

Yang Yu's voice came over: "Hey! Tie Dan, how did you know I was only two kills away from a hundred kills across three maps against Team A today..."

"How did you know that we came back from a 12-point deficit to win the game when we were at match point in map three..."

"How did you know I got torn apart by the device sniper four times...?"

Grass! ! !
Danking's face immediately turned bright red: "Who asked you?!"

Danking immediately wanted to engage in a fight, but Yang Yu added, "Turn off your phone and go to sleep."

Don't turn off your phone, let's have a chat!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

He thought of his own team, where Bai Cai was also a breakthrough player, a backup shooter, and sometimes a flex player.

Why can potatoes do it, but you can't?

He promptly opened his phone and sent a message to Bai Cai.

"Why can't you kill 98 people in a best-of-three series like Potato?"

Chinese cabbage:?
"Tie Dan, you punching bag! Are you out of your mind in the middle of the night?!"

However, the thought that I performed worse than a rookie player who had just debuted came to mind.

Now even cabbage can't sleep.
