Chapter 226: First Battle with Liquid
It is worth mentioning that this year's IEM Dallas is the 100th IEM series event, and it has been 17 years since the first event.

Without further ado, back to the game.

On the first round of competition day, two games will be held at the same time, with a main and secondary stage, BO1 competition, and 13 rounds.

The first round of group matches will be completed in one day.

It went quickly, Group A came up with the results, and then it was Group B's turn.

CXG and G2 are turned on at the same time.

They are in Group B and in the same half of the draw.

That is, after the first round of group matches, if both teams advance, they will meet in the second round.

We cannot say that enemies often meet on a narrow road, we can only seek revenge when there is a grudge and seek grudges when there is a grudge.

CXG captured G2 several times. Although Neeko and the others said they could become friends, everyone was holding their breath.

"Don't worry about me."

“The match between CXG and Liquid is a must-see.”

"G2 will come later. Watch it when you have time during the halftime break."

I felt a little drowsy playing the machine commentary, but I still forced myself to stay alert and interact with the barrage.

"The game is still a while away, I'll order some takeout first, I'm a little hungry."

"The hungrier you are, the sleepier you become."

When the takeaway order for the machine is ready, the live broadcast will cut into the scene.

The match between CXG and Liquid is the main stage.

The players on both sides sat in front of their computers, debugging their equipment.

As the players stood up and began to cheer before the game, the start of the game gradually approached.

"BP is out."

"No surprise, it's Sha Er."

"This new map pool, Gaza 2, is basically played on this map."

"After all, we haven't played Sha Er for a long time. We are sick of watching the game, let alone the players."

“Anyone who can play Sha Er will play Sha Er.”

“However, I don’t know how CXG will perform on Sha Er.”

The screen cuts to the game and the competition officially begins.

CXG vs. Liquid.

The competition format is BO1.

Map: dust-2.

CT side: CXG.

T square: liquid.

Pistol round!

"The five members of CXG are walking together to A-level."

"Liquid and the others were just about to rush out of Gate A."

"Lao Niu is holding the flash in the back. It can be seen that CXG is connected to the second prop in the sand. Once this flash is given, the A gate is basically completely white."

"exploded."

"Everyone outside Gate A eats nothing."

“The screen was instantly filled with people’s heads.”

In the upper right corner of the game screen, kill shots kept popping up, first Liquid's and then CXG's.

The battle in this wave of confrontation at Gate A was extremely fierce.

"The director's shooting is accurate."

"He came out of Gate A and just missed the flash, so he killed Senpo and Taizi instantly."

"However, Chongshen replenishes quickly."

"The only one left is the sloth."

He played the machine and gave a quick commentary, talking non-stop, explaining the battle in one breath, and only breathed a sigh of relief when the sloth finally fell.

"Fuck, this wave is really tit-for-tat."

"The command ideas of both sides are the same."

"Really? The three Liquid players rushed out of Gate A, which was considered a deployed position. If it weren't for the flash of the old bull, the two sides would have fought head-on with their shooting skills, and the result would have been even worse. It's really hard to predict."

……

"Damn, what kind of shooting skills does this director have?"

"This is a continuous second head."

"I vomited."

Li Xiang complained that Senpo didn't get a single kill and his marksmanship was terrible. It was also a good thing that the director didn't cut to his perspective, otherwise, if the live broadcast audience saw his weird marksmanship, who knows what they would say.

No words were spoken at this moment.

"Their individual abilities cannot be underestimated."

Luo Chong reminded.

Who is the director? He is the double grand slam winner.

You can say he is a cape, but you can't deny that he is Twist ZZ.

The honor and foundation are there.

second round.

CXG has formed a hair dryer brigade as always.

This time they went too far.

The three players in the middle gathered together and pushed forward.

Don't look at the B point, just push the person under B and help the middle lane to watch the butt.

At University A, Lao Niu was watching alone.

"Wow."

"Liquid didn't expect this kind of ladder play at all. They were about to run into Gate A, but they were intercepted by CXG halfway."

"In this strong round, Liquid didn't even get a single kill from CXG, and was wiped out instantly."

This round of fighting ended quickly.

In just over one minute and twenty seconds, CXG found and killed the last bandit, ending that round of battle.

Round three.

In a pure e game for Liquid, CXG continued to run wild and take the initiative.

"That's how you play, right?"

"In just three rounds, CXG has executed the bandit suppression plan thoroughly."

"Liquid probably didn't expect CXG to play with him like this."

"Really? When you play in the ladder or in a recreational game, this mid-lane push-forward playstyle is very common. But it is also used in professional competitions, but it is rare."

"You come for two rounds in a row..."

"Okay, that's how you play, right?"

"It's a bit like not treating liquids as human beings."

Playing the machine couldn't help but exaggerate.

Although Liquid starts strong in the first round, it is pure E in the first round.

But CXG, the way you play is really a bit too disrespectful to Liquid.

Barrage: "What's wrong with not being a human being?"

"That's how you should beat him. Kill him hard for me."

"It's really fun to watch. It's worth it for me to stay up all night waiting for it."

"The smart ones went to bed early, set the alarm and woke up on time to watch, and didn't miss any pistol rounds."

"Me too. I was a little sleepy at first, but when I saw CXG was so energetic, I immediately became alert."

"What's wrong with Senpo today? He seems a little sluggish. It's been a while since he started fighting. How can he fight with the Godly Sniper?"

……

Senpo is very annoying.

He didn't take advantage of the two good opportunities to kill someone.

The data is still 0/2.

That's right, he died twice in three rounds.

In the third round, he was determined to get the special one, but ended up being drawn in by three people and shot to death. All the heads were taken away by Wang Jie.

He was so angry that his face turned a little red.

Fortunately, there is someone to accompany me.

Niu Tianyu was 0/1 and also died in this round.

"Sasha."

"You go to the middle lane, I'll help you watch the secret passage, be careful not to lose your position to the secret passage."

Luo Chong threw the hair dryer to Senpo, so that he had enough money, full armor and bullets, and he could use a sniper rifle.

The rifle bureau is something that needs to be taken seriously.

The opponent has lost three rounds in a row, so Brother Dianzi should have enough money to use out his sniper rifle.

Niu Tianyu quickly pushed Luo Chong onto the path. He did not go to attack Gate A because he was running out of time. If he went there at this time, the bandits might rush out of Gate A and catch him on the main road without any cover. He could only hold the props and look in the direction of Gate A.

the other side.

Sen broke through the middle lane, first flashed over, and prepared to peek, but Liquid was prepared and countered a prop to force him back.

"Senpo is not leaving yet."

"He continued to hold the middle lane, and Brother Dianzi's sniper was set up in the secret passage."

"Senpo doesn't need to worry about the secret passage. Chongshen is on the A hole at the fastest speed. The big sniper is on the secret passage to help Senpo share the pressure of the spot." "There's a kill in the B hole."

"The prince and the clan leader were in sync, catching the director who was throwing props."

"The prince's spear skills are terrible. He didn't even kill the director, and he almost took away the clan leader as well."

The confrontation in Cave B was extremely thrilling.

The prop that the director threw into the B hole just slipped out of his hand, and Li Xiang pulled it up from the B floor. However, he did not kill the director who was switching guns instantly. Instead, he was taken away by one shot after the director adjusted himself. By the way, he turned around and almost killed Wang Jie instantly.

"This is the consciousness of a top star brother."

"Someone from level B, there's no way your B hole doesn't have someone synchronized with it."

"The director killed the prince in almost one second, without even thinking about it, and then he turned around and hit the clan leader."

"It really only takes a headshot, otherwise, the clan leader will be gone too."

"The director's awareness is really exaggerated."

Not to mention the players, even the audience was scared to death.

For this wave of instant kills and transfers, you can say that the director was outrageous, but you can also definitely say that Li Xiang and Wang Jie’s shooting skills were superb.

Fortunately, the director did not go too far and did not kill Li Xiang and Wang Jie.

Otherwise, CXG's aggressive positioning would immediately lead to many loopholes. Luo Chong's small path might be stolen, and Senpo in the middle lane might not be able to hold on.

The map of Sha Er is like this, with each link connected to the next, and everyone needs someone to watch it. Once there are few CT players, it is basically impossible to play, because there are too many points to check and it is impossible to keep up.

Moreover, the three people from CXG are all at point A, and there is almost no one at point B.

The director ignored the middle road and went directly to point B, which was in a completely empty state.

Luo Chong didn't know the specific situation on the second floor of B. Li Xiang shouted hurriedly and then breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the second floor of B was not simple.

But he didn't have the energy to ask, because the bandits wanted to capture Senpo in the middle.

Almost at the same time, two flashes flew out.

Luo Chong did not retract his camera, but quickly dodged.

When I looked back at the secret passage, I ran into the bandits coming out.

Shoot the Dot Brother.

Senpo was helpless even when he got the white ball, and was directly knocked down.

Luo Chong retreated and fired another shot towards the middle lane, sniping Kuang Ge.

"God."

"This repeek is too bold. It's really playing with your life."

"But the sloth failed to catch Chongshen in one second, and let him escape."

Luo Chong was so scared when he played that.

After his location had been locked by the bandits, he still dared to peek. It can only be said that he is very skilled and courageous.

However, he was also low on health.

He quickly left the trail and heard the sound of a grenade exploding behind him. If he dared to react again, the grenade would probably send him flying.

A small smoke screen, back to A platform.

Luo Chong asked Niu Tianyu if there was anyone at A University. When he went over to see A University, he saw skullz just being caught.

Bang!
The sniper rifle fired decisively.

"Empty gun!"

The player exclaimed, eyes wide, and shouted, "The fatal empty shot missed skullz and fell by itself."

"Can the old cow hold up?"

"He has to get rid of the Brazilians."

"Otherwise, in this two-on-two situation, the clan leader is still at low health, how can we fight..."

Luo Chong was furious. How could the shot miss?

This is fucking CS2 sniper mechanism.

He cursed in his heart, said nothing, and just reported A's information.

Niu Tianyu walked quietly to point L under the platform.

Luo Chong: “…”

This guy doesn't dare to shoot again.

His blood rushed up subconsciously. Why didn't he shoot again? But thinking that it was Lao Niu, he held back.

Look at the small map again.

Wang Jie reached the B floor and was carefully looking at the path.

A big is skullz, NAF missed the middle lane, I don’t know if he took A small.

Wang Jie didn't shoot for a long time, probably because A was alone.

"Skullz sealed the police house and ordered some cigarettes."

"He should be able to confirm that there is no one left in A Elementary School."

"The sloth is still stuck in the middle lane. He can see the information of the middle lane and the lower level of B to see if anyone has passed."

"This position is very important. He almost trapped the clan leader under B, and he can't move at all."

"It all depends on point A."

"Lao Niu had already touched the cigarette. He heard the sound of the bag being dropped, but he didn't move. This is false information. Brazilians are very cautious."

"The second time I dropped the bag, the old cow moved..."

"For the bandits who lower their heads and hide their traps, Lao Niu doesn't give them a chance to do anything and easily defeats them."

There is not much time left.

NAF had no chance to pick up the bag and could only protect his gun.

"If you give him this package, you'll be punished."

Luo Chong said to Niu Tianyu unhappily.

The bandit plants a bomb. Even if Niu Tianyu clears it, Liquid still has the economy to plant the bomb. Plus with the losing streak bounty, the bandit can get the spear again.

This is something CXG definitely doesn’t want to see.

This is not a trap, and there is still a bandit with no money.

If they could get one more point, NAF's economy would absolutely explode.

Luo Chong must be happy.

But he was too happy too early.

The score is 4:0.

Round five.

The bandits rushed out with a wave of A and successfully grabbed A. At the same time, the CXG mid laner rushed forward in a hurry and gave it away for free.

A is big, A is small, and they are synchronized, so point A is pushed away.

Even if Luo Chong sniped two people, he was powerless to save the situation.

"This heroic AK is truly a great weapon."

"The director's mid lane decision was also correct. Liquid went straight to the B hole and focused on the A point."

The man playing the machine shook his head and said, "I knew that this big AK would definitely be a foreshadowing."

NAF's AK is too accurate.

A Dalian shot two people in the head and killed Niu Tianyu and Luo Chong. If Luo Chong was killed later, they might not be able to get in after losing two people in A Dalian.

The score is 4:1.

Liquid seemed to have found the feeling of scoring points.

The birth point has an advantage, so A must be grabbed.

The police were already at a disadvantage as they were trying to seize Gate A, after the bandit’s shot and the performance of the Director and NAF.

University A is simply not stable.

Liquid tied the score in no time.

CXG pure e after one round.

The score is 4:4.

Round nine.

CXG called a timeout and adjusted their position.

Niu Tianyu was called to the middle lane, and Li Xiang was called to Axiao.

The standing position is three A and two B.

But the pressure on point B will be a bit too much, and it depends on whether Senpo can withstand it alone.

After the timeout, three A and two B, CXG scored two points, the score was 6:4.

The liquid transfers to point B.

Senpo failed to hold on at point B, and Niu Tianyu in the middle was repeatedly broken through, causing Senpo to be attacked from both sides, and Chunchun was imprisoned at point B.

The final score entered the second half at 6:6.

"Sha Er in CS2 is more or less inclined to the offensive side."

"Especially when we snatch A, the bandits will have many tactics to use once we snatch it."

"There is also a smoke explosion mechanism. It is impossible to hold someone back with just one smoke bomb."

Actually, I’m not talking about Sha Er.

At present, some large police maps have become small police maps, and small police maps have directly become offensive maps.

It is the changes in props that bring about this.

According to CXG's data, Senpo and Niu Tianyu are at the bottom.

This made Senpo quite uncomfortable, as he was still able to kill wildly in the last game.

Why is it that I can't find my touch when I play this game?
