CSGO: This player is too obedient!

Chapter 451 12. Failure is like a slap in the face, which keeps people awake

The second day of the game came to an end.

To be honest, because of the CS2 competition system, even if one confrontation entered overtime, the overall time was still very short, giving people a very unreal feeling.

It was not until the VP players came to shake hands that the COL players realized in a trance that they had ushered in their first defeat after the reorganization of the lineup.

Failure is not a good feeling, especially when you have worked hard to prepare for the game, when you enter the game, and even think that this game can be won.

This feeling is quite bad.

Xu Beifang now suddenly hates the handshake session after the game. He thinks that it might be better to replace the handshake with an elbow after the game.

He looked down and saw that the mood of the other people in the team was not very good.

This is for sure. They successfully defeated Faze on the first day of the game. Their morale was high, but they were suddenly beaten by VP at this time. That feeling is definitely not good.

JKS's expression was a little confused. In today's confrontation, his performance was quite satisfactory and he did not play any outstanding performance.

Elige was packing up his peripherals, but as he watched the VP players go away, his eyes still showed some reluctance.

NIKO ruffled his hair restlessly, and his whole body was a little red.

Danking, who usually likes to play around, became silent at this moment.

Xu Beifang was also somewhat unwilling.

He personally felt that he should have won against VP.

On the map of the building, they should have won and won with three maps.

But in the building, there were problems in multiple rounds, everyone was making mistakes, and the game did not develop as expected.

Obviously, VP did better in today's game.

But think about it in a positive way. Sometimes failure is like a slap in the face, which will make them realize their current situation.

It is also good news for the subsequent development of COL.

Xu Beifang originally planned to pack up and go back to review with his teammates.

But the staff of IEM Chengdu informed him that there would be a post-match interview later.

At first, Xu Beifang wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he still had to have some channels to communicate with the outside world. Even the fans wanted to know their current status, so he agreed.

"Hello, Nice, you just finished a wonderful game. What do you think of the building in Figure 3?" The reporter asked bluntly.

This was too straightforward, and Xu Beifang took a breath. "It feels really bad to lose the game. I haven't had this feeling for a long time. The difference between the ladder and the professional is very big. When playing offline, our emotions will be infinitely magnified."

"We really want to win this game, but the result is not good. Our new lineup has made some small mistakes."

After waiting for Xu Beifang to answer the first question, the reporter continued to ask: "Then what problems do you think you have encountered? Can you talk about it?"

Hearing this, Xu Beifang frowned. If he really had any problems, the big problem must be that NIKO did not play well in the yellow cloth, and Danking missed the timing in several rounds in the middle due to lack of experience.

But whether as a player in the past or as a commander now, he is not the kind of person who will throw the responsibility to his teammates.

"It's mainly because we are not proficient enough on this map. Frankly speaking, I am actually quite satisfied with my teammates' performance, but I think I can make better instructions in some rounds in the building." Xu Beifang took a long breath, "So it's still sad that I didn't win today."

"That's how I feel at the moment."

When the reporter heard this, he also understood that Xu Beifang's patience was exhausted, and said with understanding: "Your personal performance in the building is as good as always, but losing to VP only enters the loser group. I look forward to your performance next."

After the interview, Xu Beifang quickly returned to the lounge and returned to the hotel with his teammates.

On the way back, the teammates had dealt with their emotions and behaved quite calmly.

As if this confrontation was just insignificant.

In fact, the failure of this game did not have such a big impact.

But Xu Beifang understood that even if they still had room for error later, the failure of the first game after the new lineup would definitely not give everyone a good feeling.

While everyone else was resting with their eyes closed, Xu Beifang opened his phone to check out the discussion of netizens after the game.

As a new generation of online celebrity team, COL has received a lot of attention.

The defeat in this confrontation also triggered a lot of discussion.

The performance of both sides in the first two maps was actually acceptable. The first map, Amusement Park, was VP's specialty, and the second map was COL's specialty.

But it was a bit abstract that COL lost to VP in the third map, Building.

After all, VP's Building is not the best one.

In the post-match comment area, Xu Beifang found that everyone's evaluation of him was still good, but the discussion about NIKO and Danking was more sharp.

[With the performance of Boston Shrimp, even if he ran over to hug Nice's thigh, would he be able to do that? ]

[After entering CS2, I have been changing settings like crazy. NIKO thought that he couldn't find the right settings, but he just didn't dare to admit that he was not as strong as before]

[G2 traitor seems to be]

[To put it bluntly, your personality limits your performance. You only pressure yourself like a fool. You won't let him pull the gun line in the front. You throw props by yourself and break through by yourself. As a rifle player, you like to play sniper. What's the use?]

[Too tortured, the north can't really drag it]

[I can only say that this building is too humorous]

The evaluation of Danking is more offensive:

[Wa anchor, you give up every time you resist sniper in the middle lane, just an economic black hole]

[Or forget it, come back to be an anchor, it will delay your performance in COL]

[How many times have you given up the first kill in the middle lane? There is no way to make up for it in the front]

[It's better to switch to Wa and be a slacker]

[Can you do something! ]

This is still a relatively peaceful comment, and there are many people who directly curse.

As the number of CSGO viewers increases, online discussions have become more extreme, especially for teams with traffic.

Take NIKO for example, this guy has been controversial since his debut.

After joining COL this time, Danking has become the top anchor in the domestic CSGO anchor sector. While gaining traffic, he sometimes faces backlash.

If you don't play well, those attacks will make you feel very uncomfortable.

"What did those people on the Internet say about me?" NIKO lowered his head and swiped his phone, seemingly asking casually.

Xu Beifang continued to look at the comments, and said without raising his head: "It means that you and Danking didn't play well, and today's game was beyond their expectations."

He didn't mean to hide it from NIKO, because NIKO could see this even on the Internet, and the offensiveness of the Internet might be stronger.

"Don't feel stressed. Our team is still in the running-in period. It's normal to have some problems." Xu Beifang put away his phone and looked at NIKO. "As for the comments after the game, your performance today is not very good. They must find an outlet to vent their anger."

"It's okay. I'm used to it."

Xu Beifang has a good relationship with NIKO and is very clear about the real reason why he is in 1. It was because of the pressure of public opinion.

In the past, as long as the results were not good, NIKO would be attacked by netizens, even if it was not originally because of NIKO.

Even in the G2 period, as long as he did not perform particularly well, he would still be the target of attack after losing the game.

For example, in the Stockholm Major, his performance in the final was not bad, but everyone only remembered the three shots on the third floor.

"It's my fault that the building lost." Xu Beifang took the responsibility on himself, "I made some inappropriate decisions in several rounds."

NIKO shook his head and just looked down at the Apple headphones in his hand: "My recent performance is indeed not very good, which is also true, and my building has not been stable enough, these are all problems."

In fact, his recent state has been quite tormenting, his personal state is not good, and he always feels that his aiming is not as good as the feeling of commanding like an arm in the CSGO period.

At first, he always thought it was caused by the CS2 version update, but later everyone got used to it, and he was still in a state of torture, which made him begin to doubt himself.

He inexplicably remembered what Xu Beifang said to Danking yesterday: "If you are just a little bit worse in training, then when you really need to perform, you will be much worse."

He used to think that he was the favored child born for CSGO.

When he was young, he made his own name, became the idol of countless players and audiences, and staged one wonderful performance after another in the CSGO arena.

But as a favored child, he is always a hair's breadth away from honor.

In terms of individual player performance, he got the highest TOP2, but he was far from the real TOP1.

In terms of honor.

In the Tongtian era of Mouz, Faze's dream was shattered in Boston, and in the G2 era, it fell in Stockholm.

He was just a few rounds away from real glory, a few bullets away, and a few drops of health away, which led to his years of hard work, but in the end he only got a big runner-up.

He once joined G2 and Hunter to play CS with his brothers, because his level was still at its peak at that time. He felt that as long as he played steadily in the team, he could compete for the championship like Nice, device, S1mple and others.

But now he has reached the end of his peak, and he must find a way out for his future.

He was in a bad mood today, not really because of the bad data.

He didn't really ask for data, just like the first day of the game, his final data was the last one on his side, but the game was successfully won, and he was still in a good mood.

But in today's game, in the key round, the factor that ultimately led to the failure was because of himself.

This is hard to accept.

After all, he had to put in a lot of psychological preparation before leaving G2, but after the transfer, the team's performance proved that his decision was correct, and COL's combat effectiveness is indeed strong now.

Nice, Elige, and JKS are all very strong, and Danking is also the player who can liven up the atmosphere. Everything about the team is good.

But the problem is with him.

Even though this was just a group match, a not very important group match, NIKO somehow thought of the future.

In their Shanghai Major finals, several other players performed well, but like today's game, he performed extremely poorly on a map that he was not good at, once again staging a Major nightmare.

When he thought of this, he felt a little confused.

Xu Beifang looked at NIKO who put on his headphones and started listening to music, but did not disturb him.

This is NIKO's character.

In a team with him, he can completely allow you to perform poorly, but he cannot allow himself to perform poorly.

NIKO has many character flaws. He is easy to get upset. He likes to put pressure on himself and is easily nervous in real competitions.

But he also understands that NIKO also has many advantages. As a rifler, he is extremely confident. He has a strong competitive spirit that many players do not have. He dares to laugh at himself, and his attitude towards other teams is also quite humble.

He is a teammate who can be relied on.

Now it's enough to just give NIKO some time.

On the contrary, Danking seemed to be heartless on the side. Xu Beifang felt that it would be more troublesome to help him adjust.

The others put on eye masks one after another and began to rest, while he passed the time by scrolling through his mobile phone.

The 5E community is relatively aggressive, and many people feel that Xu Beifang should not have chosen such a group of talents.

But he believed that his choice was correct, so he didn't want to explain anything to them at the moment, so he returned to the embrace of Xiaopozhan.

Compared with the 5E community, the speeches in the Xiaopo site are relatively mild.

They discussed a lot about today's game, but more often than not they discussed some problems they encountered.

For example, Danking lacked experience in comparing the first-line teams on the map of Mansion, and it was easy for him to make some wrong judgments.

Another example is that NIKO is very uncomfortable in the yellow cloth position and often dies suddenly.

Most of the netizens on Xiaopozhan discussed these two issues.

Then Xu Beifang saw several discussions.

[Actually, it’s quite easy to solve. In the past, the north was playing yellow cloth. Now we can completely replace the north and let NIKO play A slope, and the north is playing yellow cloth]

[It’s actually easy to let NIKO play with yellow cloth. Just teach him from the north. The old map of the north is vast and he knows many locations. If two people exchange experiences with each other, it can actually be solved.]

[Danking’s side is actually not that serious. In the final analysis, it’s just a lack of experience. If you don’t have enough experience, let the veterans in the team teach you]

Xu Beifang looked at these comments and the @his water friends below, and suddenly heard a familiar voice in his ears.

【drop! 】

[Received suggestions to help NIKO and Danking overcome the difficulties in the building. The recommended difficulty is 5 stars. After completion, a B-level treasure box will be awarded...]

Xu Beifang raised his eyebrows, this was an unexpected surprise.

After all, this thing was originally intended to be solved.

His personal character is to work hard to solve problems when they arise. As far as his career goes, if he doesn’t know how to play sniper rifles, he will practice sniper rifles. If he doesn’t know how to play endgame, he will ask other endgame masters for advice and spend time watching DEMOs.

When he encounters a problem, he never wants to escape or obscure it. Solving it is the only way.

It just happened that a netizen put forward this suggestion, and you can do a suggestion task by the way.

Thinking of this, Xu Beifang replied under this comment: [Sun Xiaochuan 258 received it! 】

Then he also put on a blindfold, but closed his eyes to rest.

After waiting for a long time, the car finally arrived at its destination, and they all returned to the hotel.

As soon as they returned to the hotel, the group entered the training room under the leadership of the smiling coach and began to review the game.

This is the habit of Coach Xiaoxi. He reviews the game as soon as possible after the game, so that he can recall his own thoughts and ideas during the game to the maximum extent.

Then after the building was reviewed, Danking couldn't help but said, "I'm going out to have a cigarette and I'll be back soon."

After that, he walked to the terraces on both sides of the hotel corridor and started lighting cigarettes.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he glanced back and found that it was Xu Beifang, so he also handed one over.

Xu Beifang took the cigarette and put it in his hand. He didn't smoke, he just came out to relax and unwind.

Danking lit his cigarette and looked at the traffic on the sidewalk below the hotel.

Looking from here, you can even see the traffic police arresting electric scooters without helmets. If you have nothing to do, you can sit here and watch for a whole day.

Half of the cigarette had been smoked, and they watched quietly for a long time.

In the end, Danking couldn't help but said: "Is the gap between me and the first-tier team really that big?"

After the game, from his own perspective, he just thought that his timing was poor and some of the opponents' choices were better.

But when he reviewed the game from a God's perspective after the game, he found that in many rounds he was giving the opponent opportunities. He made too many irrelevant actions and too many actions that he took for granted.

Although he retired before, he was beaten by Xu Beifang and Zaiwu in turn.

He also thought that he could not achieve too outstanding results in the current team.

But in fact, he thought that he could at least have the strength of a first-line sniper rifle.

But in today's game, VP beat him up, as if he was beaten back to reality.

Xu Beifang did not answer directly. Looking at the busy traffic on the main road, he quietly replied: "If you are a rookie, practice more."

"NMMDW!" Danking originally thought that Xu Beifang could comfort him for two games, but he said this answer expressionlessly, and he was a little embarrassed.

"What can I do?" Xu Beifang smiled and shrugged, "You have retired for so long. Even when you were a professional, you were not famous for your experience and experience. It is normal to be beaten by experience when you meet a disciplined killer like VP."

"Then you come up and mock me?" Danking's face was full of resentment.

Xu Beifang sighed: "Where did I mock you? Think about how I have come this far?"

"Listen to advice?"

Xu Beifang gently shook his index finger: "No, I solve problems when I encounter them, and ask questions when I don't have the knowledge. To put it simply, you can also understand that if you are a rookie, you should practice more."

"If you are not good at shooting, ask how to practice shooting. If you are not good at awareness, ask the little ghost how to play the end game." Danking thought, "It seems to be true."

Hearing this, Xu Beifang knew that he was halfway to success.

"So you see, you and your brother are connected by heart, and you and your brother are playing tricks." Xu Beifang's face was full of sadness, "I won't say it anymore, the relationship has faded."

Danking immediately said: "Ah, alas, I am not sad, understand your brother."

Seeing Tiedan become heartless again, Xu Beifang also knew that this guy's mentality had been adjusted back.

Although netizens have been teasing that Danking is a COL relative, Xu Beifang actually doesn't think Danking is weak. He didn't build the team randomly this time, and the choice of sniper was also carefully considered.

Danking hasn't played on the first-line stage for a long time, and there must be some problems with his experience now, after all, his state has not reached the peak period.

But his reaction, position selection, and explosiveness are all there.

It's okay to be a sniper in a first-line team, even if he can't compete with a real T0-level sniper.

But it meets Xu Beifang's needs.

That's enough.

After all, this guy retired for two years. Now he is back again, and he must not be adapted to the first-line team's play style, which is quite normal.

"But Beifang, please give me some advice. I am indeed lacking experience now. How should I adjust later?" Danking asked bluntly. He believed in Xu Beifang. Xu Beifang had a lot of theoretical knowledge along the way and had encountered too many situations.

Xu Beifang thought for a while: "Experience is best accumulated with games."

Tiedan immediately wanted to say that what is lacking now is the game.

Xu Beifang immediately said: "But the conditions do not allow it now. If you want to quickly accumulate experience, there are two ways."

"Tell me in detail."

"One is to ask experienced people. Our team is full of old guys with rich experience. You can take the initiative to ask. Regarding the selection and timing of the rifle, you can ask Brother Ji."

Danking was a little surprised: "Ask Brother Ji? Shouldn't I ask you and NIKO?"

Xu Beifang shook his head: "NIKO and I are a little special, just like S1mple, you know, in fact, we don't recommend others to learn our playing style, because we are top guys, we know too many things, you are not experienced enough now, it is useless to learn."

"NIKO is his recent You are not in a good state. You don't understand it yourself now, so it's not appropriate to ask. "

Danking nodded: "That's right. I see that NIKO has been playing a bit messy recently."

He took another puff of cigarette, and then said: "Then I will bother Brother Ji later."

Xu Beifang nodded: "As for the sniper, you can ask NIKO more."

"Didn't I just say not to ask NIKO?"

Xu Beifang smiled wickedly: "His sniper position selection is the gameplay of the rifleman, so after you understand NIKO's position selection, carefully distinguish it and choose the useful position to learn. As for the rifleman's position selection, it is equivalent to helping you eliminate the wrong answer. "

"You are really a good commander."

"I will take it as a compliment." Xu Beifang said with a smile.

"What about the second method?" Danking asked.

Xu Beifang thought for a moment and said, "It's actually quite simple. This is a method NIKO told me. You can look for yesterday's or today's games, look at the opponent's perspective, and think about how to beat 'Danking'."

"I beat myself?"

"You can think of it that way." Xu Beifang responded, "It sounds a bit abstract, but it's actually quite useful."

This is actually how top players play. Because top players are targeted too many times, most of them will use similar methods to counter-target.

Looking at Danking's thoughtful look, Xu Beifang said: "Okay, come in as soon as you finish drawing this. We just lost VP. Tomorrow's game will be the key game, and we lost that game in BO3. Our home field advantage is completely gone.”

The group stage uses a double-elimination system, and they have already lost one game.

If we lose another game, we will be directly eliminated. At that time, we may only be able to watch the offline games of IEM Chengdu as a spectator.

After Danking figured it out, he finally smoked the cigarette butt, and then followed Xu Beifei's footsteps.

When I walked to the door of the training room, I heard the coach's voice coming from inside.

"Actually, you don't have to blame yourself too much. I also had problems with my BP this time. Don't put too much pressure on me."

Xu Beifang felt warm in his heart, and the smiling coach was still the same. Although his coaching talent was not particularly outstanding, just like in the early days of COL, after losing the game, he would not put all the responsibility on the players.

He opened the door and walked in, and immediately the eyes of several other people in the room came over.

"Okay, it's just a BO3 loss. There's no need for everyone to be so desperate." Xu Beifang looked around the room. JKS and Elige didn't have any big mood swings. Only NIKO was still turning into a pressure cooker.

"We have also reviewed the problems in the building just now. NIKO, you don't have anything to refute those issues." Xu Beifang gave an example, "It's just that the building is not proficient enough and the settings are frequently changed."

NIKO pursed his lips. He was already waiting to be held accountable by his teammates.

"Now that the problem has come out, in the next time, you should play more games in the building during training and try more to solve the setting problems. I believe your feeling. There must be a reason why you are not adapting now. "Xu Beifei walked to the computer and took the charging mobile phone, "Okay, let's go have dinner now. After dinner, tomorrow's opponents will also come out. Then everyone will talk about BP and watch a game between them. Just the video.”

After that, he started to lead his teammates out.

NIKO was originally waiting for his teammates to blame each other, and there might be a scene of quarrels in the training room, but Xu Beifang's thunder was loud and the rain was small, and it was over so easily, leaving him stunned for a moment, "That's it?"

Even Elige and JKS were a little surprised.

After all, it is normal for an e-sports team to quarrel after the review.

Various blame-shifting, cliques, and isolation are commonplace.

But Xu Beifang dealt with this failure in an understatement, which surprised them.

Xu Beifang looked at their eyes and roughly understood what they were thinking about writing. He complained speechlessly: "Even if you don't believe in yourself, you still believe in my vision."

What does it mean not to believe in yourself, but also to believe in his vision... NIKO wanted to roll his eyes at these words.

Is this guy so narcissistic now?

"It's a fact that NIKO is not playing well at Mansion now. He wasn't playing well in G2 either, as you all know."

Elige and JKS nodded. When they mentioned NIKO, they thought of humorous yellow cloth or even humorous shrimp slipper.

His building is too extreme, it will either explode or turn into a red devil.

Xu Beifang said: "Since there is a problem, let's solve it. He is not playing well now, so NIKO should practice more. As long as NIKO does not reject it and takes the initiative to practice, I think it will not be particularly difficult for him. things.”

"If you really work hard and that position is not compatible with him, then we can just make some adjustments within the team."

NIKO took a breath and looked at Xu Beifang: "No more talking, we are brothers in our hearts."

The eyes of Elige and JKS also changed a bit. At this moment, they finally felt the charm of "Nice".

Apart from anything else, there is indeed nothing wrong with what I did today.

If there is a problem, solve it instead of fighting to the death.

This is too much for their liking.

"No, you'd better play with the yellow cloth first." Xu Beifang teased, "That yellow cloth of yours is indeed too humorous."

NIKO rolled his eyes.

Sure enough, there is nothing good to say about this guy.

"Okay, let's go finish eating. We'll have to watch the video when we come back from the meal."

After saying that, Xu Beifang took his teammates and started walking out for dinner.

To be honest, he felt a little emotional for no reason.

When I was in the old VP, Pasha was responsible for regulating everyone's emotions and providing comfort after the game.

Now he has gone down the same path as Big Brother.

Commanding not only means a strong right to speak, but also a heavy responsibility.

It’s hard to lead a team.

…

PS: The modifications are just okay. It won’t be so bitter and bitter. The main thing is to cheer up Danking and Ni’s emotions a little bit. Otherwise, COL will become a pure dumpster truck and it will be meaningless.
