CSGO: This player is too obedient!

Chapter 445 6. Steel Helmet: "Shall I fight COL?"

"Nice, welcome back!"

This sentence has been widely used in the GO circle, and there are too many famous professional players who have welcomed Xu Beifang's return.

This exaggerated scene caused quite a stir among the new fan base.

The online era has caused many professional players to lose their passion, but it has had a huge impact on the popularity of CSGO. CSGO's competition system has been well developed at this stage, and many newcomers have entered CS.

Xu Beifei has been in hiding for a few years. Although some people have heard of his name, they didn't know how influential the ID Nice was until Xu Beifei returned.

Xu Beifang, who is at the center of attention, has been living a very comfortable life recently.

Sure enough, he still likes CS.

After all members of the COL home team had determined their lineup, he began to return to his former professional life.

Wake up every morning and go for a morning run, then have breakfast and start your daily warm-up to adapt to the version changes brought about by CS2.

Then in the afternoon, when there was a training match, he helped other teams test the level of the lineup during the transfer period, and also ran in the new lineup.

Also try to get into the role of ‘commander’.

This time, the role change for him is actually quite big.

After all, he was once just a star player with a strong voice, and there is still a difference between him and a real conductor.

This transformation has encountered many problems.

The first is that they need to adapt to their own communication, the frequency of communication in the game, and the playing habits of different players. They spent a lot of time adjusting.

The training process is always boring, but fortunately with Danking and Coach Xiaoxi around, the overall atmosphere is relatively relaxed.

However, the communication problem was solved relatively quickly. After all, communication was mainly in English. NIKO, JKS, and Elige were all very proficient in English. Danking had some difficulties in communicating in the first few days, but as he entered the environment, he improved very quickly.

In the first week, they only practiced some simple default playing methods, but did not touch on the difficult tactical advancement.

After the first week, Xu Beifang took the initiative to propose a ‘roundtable meeting’.

In this meeting, everyone spoke freely, discussed their feelings about this week's training, and explained the problems they saw.

In the COL conference room, Elige touched his bald head and looked at Xu Beifang, "The experience of the previous two TOP1s is indeed rich, can there be such a link?"

Tiedan is also very emotional. This kind of time when you can speak freely is quite rare in a team.

At least when I was in Tianlu before, this kind of situation rarely happened.

This is the collision brought about by different team environments.

"Then let's see how this 'roundtable meeting' turns out. If it turns out well, we can make it a regular part of every month." Xu Beifang smiled.

People always have differences when they get along with each other. Sometimes it is better to speak out and communicate, even if the argument is red-faced, than to hold it in and grow a thorn in your heart.

"It seems that no one knows what to say, so let me start with the first topic." Coach Xiaoxi took a small notebook and said what he had prepared, "In the first week, most of us For communication and running-in, let’s first talk about my views on communication with teammates.”

NIKO was the first to speak: "Let me go first. I think JKS you can communicate more frequently. Sometimes you are indeed too silent. You can give as much information as possible at some points in time, even if it is It doesn’t matter if you don’t know the information on the other side, just say more.”

He didn't know how to describe it, so he scratched his head and said, "Just say more."

Xu Beifang nodded: "JKS, you are indeed your problem, and I also need your information to support me."

"You should also understand that even the strongest commander in the world cannot command four teammates without microphones. I need your information feedback to decide which side to attack."

Although free people don't need to communicate too frequently, they still need to feedback information, but JKS often loses voice while typing.

Although they occasionally kill people, there are too few sounds, which makes the front a little uncomfortable.

"Is it that serious?" JKS took a sip of water to cover up his embarrassment, "Then I'll give you more information later."

His personality is not very active, and he has just joined a few new teammates, and he is still a little uncomfortable with it.

But after hearing two old teammates say this, he also planned to change it later.

At this time, Elige also raised her hand: "I also have something to say."

Xu Beifang nodded and motioned for him to speak directly.

"In terms of Danking, communication can be streamlined. Sometimes there is too much ineffective communication, which actually affects the transmission of information."

Danking was originally curious about what Elige was talking about, but his face became embarrassed when he heard this.

He can actually understand the reason. His English level is not very good, and coupled with the habit of staying in Tianlu for a long time, the density of information exchanged is not high enough.

"Then I'll change it too." The pink-furred goblin said sheepishly.

Xu Beifang pondered for a while, but said, "You just need to adjust a little bit, don't be afraid to speak. Elige and JKS are both introverted, and the rhythm of communication still needs the three of us to drive, so you just need to simplify the communication, don't be afraid to speak because of this."

There is no problem with the communication between Xu Beifang, Elige, and NIKO.

After all, the three of them were once the leaders of the team in the arena, so there will not be too many problems in communication.

The real communication problem is like smooya, who has become a T4 level player early.

After seeing this topic, Coach Xiaoxi continued to follow up, "The second topic is about the right to speak in the team and the freedom of different players. This is a very important issue!"

The coach looked very serious.

Although he has always appeared in the professional arena as an entertaining image, he still has his own understanding of the profession and the game.

If the right to speak is not handled well, the subsequent direction of the team may be miserable.

He couldn't help but look at NIKO. When NIKO was in Faze, he had several problems because of the right to speak.

Xu Beifang looked at NIKO and JKS: "In fact, what the coach wants to say is very simple. In the next game, we plan to rely on the G2 mode to play the whole game." He turned to look at Elige, "Or like the previous Liquid, I just give a general instruction, and then let you play freely, relying on our tacit understanding and structure to play?"

The final results of these two different command styles are definitely different.

G2's style has greater restrictions on the players, and it is more about the players serving the overall situation, with excellent tactics as the main focus.

And the peak Liquid style is to maximize the personal abilities of the players and give each player more space.

Everyone in the room pondered for a long time. This is related to their future play system, which is a very important thing.

Elige: "Let's go with G2's style."

NIKO: "Let's play with Liquid."

After considering it, Elige and NIKO gave opposite answers.

They all looked at each other in surprise.

The coach finally smiled: "What's going on? You don't agree with your old club's operating style?"

Brother Ji looked at NIKO and smiled helplessly: "The play style of Liquid in 2019 was indeed very good, but the most important member at that time was actually stewie2K. With that guy swimming like a catfish throughout the game, we have information and resources to give full play to, and this system can have room to play."

"Besides, even when that system was at its peak, wasn't it destroyed by our commander?"

Brother Ji was full of resentment when he said this. After all, Liquid has not won Vitality since the middle of 2019.

His head was hammered.

The smiling coach turned his head and looked at NIKO.

NIKO also said simply and clearly: "I don't want a lot of resources, I just think that G2's play style is not feasible, otherwise we wouldn't have played so hard."

"That play style requires too much of the commander's state during the game."

The idea that the players serve the whole, the commander has a high voice, and basically everything depends on his instructions.

If there are too many tactics, once the tactics are not played correctly, it will be easy to lose the game.

For example, if a wave of attack reaches the area defended by three people on the other side, then winning depends entirely on the state of the players.

He believes that tactics should be a ray of light in difficult situations, and should not become a normalized offensive action.

Both ideas were denied, and the room fell into a brief silence for a while.

Xu Beifang tapped the table with his index finger, and then said hesitantly: "I do have an idea."

NIKO raised his eyebrows: "Just say it."

Others also looked at him.

Xu Beifang smiled: "The right to speak within the team must be confirmed, otherwise when we really enter the game later, the quality game may be a mess."

Several people nodded with empathy.

Whether in the game or in the ladder, they have encountered the kind of mid-round disagreement. Everyone's understanding of the game is definitely different, but they also receive information from the present, so they will make completely different operations.

Sometimes it may be just a different position that can lose a good game.

At this time, it is very important that there is a commander who gives orders, and that others can put down their actions and follow the commander's orders.

"So my idea is that when there is a real disagreement, everyone should follow my instructions."

"But if it is like this, it is actually similar to G2's partial service to the whole, but you are all the best players in the world, and it would be a pity to put you all into the framework."

Hearing this, Danking touched his head a little embarrassed.

Xu Beifang did not pay attention to Danking's actions, but explained his subsequent thoughts, "For the defense, we have discussed it before, and my ideas are the main ones, and then NIKO and I will lead the rhythm, and the two of us will have more freedom."

"For the offense, based on the default, I have thought of a set of synchronized attacking methods."

NIKO frowned: "Synchronized attack?"

He was a little surprised, not because the word was new, but in fact it was too common.

From the CSGO era to the current CS2, many tactics use a main attack direction + a flank approach. This is a synchronized attack.

But he felt that Xu Beifang's idea would not be that simple. After all, this guy might be a famous scroll king.

Xu Beifang didn't give in. He took the coach's laptop and opened the tactical drill software.

He casually opened a map of Lost City, and then placed the most basic 212 position on the CT position.

Then he arranged their positions one after another.

"Our individual abilities are stronger than those of the first-line team, there is no doubt about this."

There are three top-5 riflemen in the team, and JKS is also top-19. This person's ability is really much stronger than most first-line teams.

"So my idea is that we can proactively try to break through and try to break through from several angles." Xu Beifang set their positions in the map software at three locations: under the arch, B2 floor, and A1.

"For example, with our current lineup, after collecting the early information, I can issue a synchronized information from three angles, and then we can start advancement attempts from three angles at the same time."

"For example, I tried to get killed in A1, but Arch NIKO pushed up and got the first kill. At this time, they will definitely make some moves in area B. JKS, you may be able to steal a kill."

NIKO touched his chin: "I kind of understand what you mean. Create more pressure on the map and expose weaknesses on the other side, even if it's just at the cost of replacing people."

NIKO is actually very smart. He cannot become an excellent conductor simply because he cannot balance his personal performance and overall command. He is a single-core thinking animal.

Elige is more pessimistic: "But if we attack at the same time, if we can't withstand the front wave, wouldn't it be impossible to win this point?"

He had already imagined in his mind the scene of one person missing from three angles. That way it would be 2V5 soon after the start, and there would be no way to fight at all.

"Or maybe just after one person was knocked out from the front, the head was knocked back. That would be a bit of a loss outweighing the gain."

He could actually understand this tactic. Xu Beifang gave them a lot of free space and dispersed the entire team. This was Xu Beifang's belief in their personal abilities.

But the overall strength is dispersed, and it is difficult to kill the opponent in one wave.

"In fact, the problem is not that big. On the offensive side, we can make money by substituting people. In my opinion, this kind of synchronization needs some time intervals, so that the one who takes the order can seize the opportunity. "

Those real veterans in the first-line arena will still carefully position themselves where they should look, even if the front-line battle is in full swing. Therefore, this kind of offensive method requires a little time difference to allow this type of 'old climb' I think there is no way out.

"That's actually okay." Danking's eyes lit up. "This can fully bring out the abilities of our players. Even if the first wave of synchronized attacks did not go well and the two sides exchanged numbers, we can still do it in the follow-up. Rely on the end game.”

"Our endgame abilities are also very good!"

Xu Beifang, NIKO, Elige, JKS and himself are all among the best in endgame abilities, and none of them are that stupid gun guy.

This drags the opponent into a mid-term confrontation, allowing them to fully utilize their personal abilities.

"And this is not a smooth situation. With the unexpected situation in the north, it may be like this under smooth conditions." Danking said excitedly, "For example, the arch moves first, and NIKO seizes the opportunity to drop one in seconds, and then pulls the other side. I came out to refill NIKO, and I helped NIKO refill the gun."

"Beifang and Chicken Brother pushed out from A1 and beat the person in area A. JKS caught the opponent's timing from the B2 floor to return to defense. After knocking out one person, they determined the position of the last person and went directly to the 4th fight. 1 picture.”

Danking's wave of wild thoughts made several others in the room have their own thoughts.

NIKO took a breath: "It seems good."

JKS smiled: "It seems that we have no other choice. After all, the North is the commander, and there is no way to play according to the resource-rich play style of Little Bee."

Elige also had his signature fake smile on his face: "I think you can give it a try."

Xu Beifang bumped his fists at them: "Then it's agreed, our training will go in this direction from now on."

"What if I don't play with you this way?" NIKO winked at Xu Beifang, joking.

Xu Beifang chuckled, and then rolled up his sleeves casually: "I can convince people with reason."

NIKO's smile suddenly froze.

To convince people with reason? It’s the truth of physics, right?

Everyone else was also very happy.

At this time, JKS asked: "The direction of training is almost determined. What will happen in the subsequent games? We should need to play a lot of qualifying matches."

These days, his mind has been focused on training and running in, and he has not paid attention to the rules of the game.

Xu Beifang laughed when he heard this.

"The next competition is IEM Chengdu. There is no pressure on us to qualify."

NIKO frowned: "No, the guards and the others have been transferred to the second team. We should not have many places in the competition."

According to the current CSGO competition rules, most competitions will have their points reset if more than three players are replaced.

IEM is even more so, which means that they cannot be directly invited by the official competition group through points for the IEM Chengdu Station.

Xu Beifang nodded: "Yes."

"Then why is there no pressure?" JKS asked in surprise.

The gold content of the IEM series of competitions is still quite high, and because there are not many qualifications, it is still difficult to get out of the shark pond in the European division.

They are in the off-season running-in state, so it is not surprising even if they die in the shark pond.

Xu Beifang stood up and patted JKS on the shoulder: "It's mainly because of the three of us."

He pointed at Danking again.

"Danking and I are both from China, and we are considered players in the Asian region. You are from Oceania. According to the region rules of the resort, you have to participate in the region according to your nationality."

"That is to say, COL can only participate in the preliminaries of the Asian and Oceanian joint regions."

Danking's eyes widened when he heard this: "Could it be that."

Xu Beifang nodded: "We will now participate in the IEM Chengdu Asian and Oceanian preliminaries online. Do you think it is stressful for us?"

Danking stepped back excitedly: "Fuck, that's not a home advantage!"

"IEM Chengdu should have two local region quotas, and it is estimated that they will be given to Tianlu and LVG. In other words, our opponents are actually on the Australian team side."

JKS nodded: "That's really not too much pressure."

The Australian team today can only be said to be quite bad, otherwise he would not have been unemployed at home waiting for opportunities.

"So for the next qualifiers, we will practice by playing."

Danking rubbed his hands expectantly. He thought he would have to play various online qualifiers for a long time.

Unexpectedly, he would have to return to China to play soon.

In his mind, he imagined that he would kill donk with a sniper shot, and the whole audience would shout "Danking!" "Danking!"

That would be too exciting!

…

In Huya 123321 channel.

Ma Xixi became popular in PL for several times, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he chose to change his project and transform into a food broadcaster.

He ate takeout and casually answered questions from the owners of the live broadcast room.

[Will Steel Helmet participate in the IEM Chengdu Station? 】

"Of course I will participate. This is a rare opportunity to play against top players. Although we are a broadcaster team, we should at least play like a broadcaster team." Ma Xixi smiled when she said this, "If we win, it will be fun to watch."

Giant Helmet is a broadcaster team led by MO and composed of several domestic CSGO broadcasters.

Although they are a broadcaster team, they have always been ranked in the top 3 in China, and even won several maps of Tianlu. They are still very boastful.

Ma Xixi is the coach of Gangkui, responsible for massaging the players' shoulders, ordering dishes, and providing emotional value.

[Does Gangkui have a chance to enter the main competition of IEM Chengdu this time? 】

"There is still hope. After all, both Tianlu and LVG were directly invited. If we can beat the Australian team, we will have a chance to enter the main competition. Then let the brothers in the live broadcast room feel what it means to be in a good mood."

"When MO and the others play on the stage, I will wear a suit and hold a tactical book in the back. When they encounter problems, I will call for a pause. Don't be too handsome." Ma Xixi smiled, "This time at IEM Chengdu, we will not be commentators, we will be coaches!"

[You are very imaginative]

[You have a rich imagination]

[If you play badly, you can pause and praise your opponent, and the opponent will feel milk on the keyboard]

[Call for a pause when you encounter a problem, and then discuss what to eat in the evening]

[This coach can only order dishes]

[Ma Xixi is proficient in all the takeaway flavors around the venue and can accurately understand the players' eating habits! ]

[Xixi is too top-notch! ]

[Xixi's height will not be blocked by the e-sports chair at that time]

Facing the doubts of the barrage boss, Ma Xixi looked disdainful.

Smile, smile

Then I'll show you how handsome I am in a suit! I'll show you what professionalism is!

But at this moment, he noticed a barrage of comments.

[Did you know that Xixi Col is coming to Asia to play in the qualifiers? ]

"Col is coming to Asia? How is that possible? They are a North American team..." Ma Xixi was suddenly stunned, "Wait, WGNLS! Xu Beifang, Tiedan, JKS!"

"There are three people from Asia and Oceania in the COL team. They have to come to Asia to play in the qualifiers."

He looked at the live broadcast room blankly: "Doesn't that mean that we have to play against Col?"

...

PS: After thinking about it, if I write about a competition, the end is indeed a bit too abrupt. Otherwise, try to live a second life and finish writing about the Shanghai Major?

If so, I will start the daily 8K mode.
