Wa: It’s broken, I’ve become a cutting monster!

"Since Lev fell from the winner's group to the loser's group, Lev has the priority in today's loser's group finals. First to ban, first to pick!"

"Yes, this actually has a great impact on the map bps of both coaches, because as we all know, FPX's Lotus Ancient City and Yuangong Town have been dominant in this championship! Which map will Lev put on the first ban if he bans first?"

Needless to say, Lotus Ancient City, in this map of Source Worker Town, FPX only played Anyang Wallet twice, but the effect was terrifying. It's not that Anyang Wallet has dominance when it only appears in two games, but it's Anyang's dominance that made FPX only play 2 games of Source Worker Town!

When it came to the map ban selection phase for both sides, Lev chose the more representative Yuangong Town between the Lotus Ancient City and the Yuangong Town!

FPX banned the Yahai Xuancheng, which they had not played for many years. Lev's first choice was naturally their king map, Refrigerator. FPX took Sunset City as the second self-selected map.

In the third map, Lev chose the Deep Cave, FPX naturally took out the Lotus Ancient City, and the last decisive map was given to the Hidden Monastery!

The loser's bracket finals is a bo5 format, so except for the maps that are banned by both sides, the remaining five maps will be released. It's just that the order is different. Judging from the bp situation, both sides got the maps they wanted to play in the first three maps, and everyone is happy.

What’s interesting is that when Lev was in his own division, Yuangong Town was the map they were good at. Since coming to the championship game, they were first targeted by TE’s double sentinel lineup for materials, and then FPX took out a lot of money.

Is the CN region full of weird things like this?

This made Lev lose confidence and he didn’t dare to choose! ! The Bo5 battle line was too long, no team would release the opponent’s king map. Once the feel was cultivated, everything would be hard to say!

But no matter what, let’s first take a look at the lineup choices of both sides in the first map, Winter Harbor.

There is no special change on the lev side:

Aspas, TEX, Kingg, Com, Mazino!

This lineup is still used by Lev today, although it is a bit behind the times, but the value lies in its proficiency. They can play all kinds of tactics with their eyes closed, but correspondingly, their opponents are also very familiar with their double smoke lineup!

This is a double-edged sword. The more you use a lineup, the more proficient you will become, and the more familiar your opponent will become.

Let’s take a look at FPX’s lineup selection:

Hunter (Ayang), Viper (Zhang He), Qile (autumn), Geike (life)!

"Oh? Although we are used to seeing Dan Anyang's neon lights, I'm still surprised out of politeness!"

"Hahahaha, indeed. It's no secret that FPX has a Neon system. After all, they've already reached the loser's bracket finals, so there's no need to hide it. But the Neon system in Morihan Winter Harbor has very strict requirements on physical skills!"

Shan Anyang's Neon performed very well yesterday, but Aspas' Jiefeng also performed a wonderful "6-frame dart pull" in this championship, so both sides brought out their trump cards in Figure .

Judging from the map win rate, lev11's terrifying 90% win rate is far beyond FPX. Facing such a strong opponent in the bo5 map one, and map two, Sunset City, which is a strong map for both teams, the pressure on FPX can be imagined.

Although lev has a high winning rate, most of them are won in overtime. This has a lot to do with the style of the Americas. They always aim to "outnumber the enemy" until the end. Gunfighting is actually the most likely unstable factor in the game of Valorant.

This is also the key reason why the American Division likes to use Poseidon in the Senhandong Port so much, breaking down the map into layers and advancing step by step, and each punch is very powerful.

But the style of the CN region is completely different. We are more focused on winning with pure gun skills, so FPX's lineup is more focused on quickly planting bombs and fighting in the melee. This is also the main reason why the CN region is rich in gunmen.

The environment determines the ecology. There are many pure gun men like Kang Kang, Shan Anyang, Zhang He, Smoggy, and Haodong in the CN League. Compared with the neighboring LOL, CN League, as an FPS game, rarely has the phenomenon of "lack of succession".

In fact, there are still many amazing kids in the youth training teams of each team who have not made their debut. In EDG's second team youth training in 2024, no one can play in the game. The reason is simple: they are not old enough!

Among FPS games, Valorant is very dependent on condition and age. There are only a handful of professional players over 25 who are still playing.

As for talented gunners, the CN League has no shortage of them. People like Xiaoguang and Happywei are also growing. Perhaps the only thing they lack from the top professionals is experience.

Back to the game, in the first half, Lev attacked first and FPX responded with defense.

In the pistol round, Lev used the regular "41" position, without any fancy tactics, just normal advancement to point A. Con used a drone to send Aspas to the first floor of A, and Zhang He also opened the poison wall to delay the opponent's attack. The two sides were on edge for a while, and a confrontation could break out at any time!

Just when Lev was about to wait for Zhang He's poison wall to disappear and quickly enter the point, Shan Anyang took the lead in attacking! !

Without the support of teammates' props, he just pulled out a layer of A, and shot a ghost in his hand at Aspas' head!

Snapped!

Even if Aspas reacted quickly, he was hit on the side by Dan Anyang without any preparation and was powerless to recover. He fell to the ground without any resistance!

"Oh! Shan Anyang is here again. When playing against Sen yesterday, Shan Anyang used this dry-pull style of play many times to create advantages for the team. Today, facing his old rival Aspas, Shan Anyang did not back down and still pulled out and shot!"

"Aspas and his teammates behind him didn't react at all. This single Anyang was really bold!"

After killing Aspas, Shan Anyang accelerated and returned to the bomb site without any damage. Lev was sneakily attacked by Shan Anyang before he could start. This was not good news.

At this time, Zhang He, the B-point player, was always peeking at the gray box. If Lev wanted to switch positions, he could only rely on Tex, the B-point player. However, Zhang He was the only one defending FPX's B-point. After peeking and finding someone, he would definitely not fight. Without Aspas, Lev couldn't even get into the A-point. FPX had already formed a definite numerical advantage!

But the next moment, TEX used practical actions to prove what a "game changer" is!

Zhang He was in a small position and peeked, and Tex seized the opportunity and used a ghostly shot to pick the ball out of Zhang He's reach!

"No! The situation reversed instantly! Tex fought back and stood up again when the team was in trouble, but he picked it up in vain?! This reaction is too scary!"
