Chapter 387 Demon King
"Wori, why is it Team A!"
In the hotel training room, after seeing the guests who drew lots put Tianlu's team logo and Team A's team logo together, everyone was ashamed.
Even Zhao Yiyang, his face drooped instantly when he saw the opponent who was qualifying for the front.
Originally, they were naively fantasizing that they could draw AJs in the qualifying battle, and they performed well from the qualifiers to now, but Tianlu did not really call them a strong team like Team A or NaVi.
Even, they can accept playing a game with liquid. Because they defeated liquid 2-0 in the qualifiers and were the first to qualify. Although liquid will definitely make some targets, no matter how they target, Tianlu's winning rate will always be there, and it will not be too low.
But it is different for Team A. All teams in the world will not want to face Team A, especially when Team A is in such a good state. If you play with Team A, you will not only suffer the bitter consequences of defeat, but also be beaten very uncomfortable, as if you are not playing CSGO.
No one wants to be killed by grenades falling from the sky without seeing anyone; no one wants to be killed by a few bullets after sealing the smoke bombs.
"Damn it! This is a disaster that cannot be avoided!"
After a period of silence, Zhao Yiyang could only speak. After all, even if they may have a chance of winning with Team A, for professional players, as long as they still have a chance of winning, or even have no chance of winning, they still have to play to complete the game.
"Brothers, come on! Do you stop fighting if you know you can't win? If we really leave, we won't win, wouldn't it be great?"
That being said, but if you dream of winning the championship, what else should you do in the game? Others also know that this game should be explained. They need to prepare carefully for the next two games, especially the next 2-1 opponent, because if you still can't get the promotion quota in this round of 2-1, then in the 2-2 life-and-death battle, the pressure on the team will expand infinitely.
Speaking of the great devil who Tianlu qualifies for battle, its experience is not a typical CSGO dynasty experience.
Astralis' team, his players are actually not newcomers, or they were not successful before they founded this Astralis.
During the earlier TSM period, although the A team trio device, dupreeh and xyp9x had a small score, they always had weak feet in the semi-finals or finals, and were ridiculed by people as "chock".
When they got out of TSM and joined forces with Karrigan and B to create Astralis, although everyone has strong personal abilities and top commanders like Karrigan, they still failed to achieve decent results for a while. Then B and Karrigan left the team one after another, joined Glave and Kjaerbye. They began to officially become real top teams, and in 2017 they won the championship of IEM Katowitz and the championship of ELEAGUE Major.
However, after this, the youngest major mvp chose to leave the team voluntarily. Of course, Kjaerbye would not have thought that his departure in this way would create the greatest CSGO team in history.
However, it is not known whether Kjaerbye himself will regret leaving Team A. After Team A formed the five-man team, they only adapted to the process of dominating the world for two months.
During this process, they not only played level's csgo game, but also used a more clever BP method to deal with each BO3 or even BO5 duel.
That is, they will permanently ban one of the 7 maps to allow the team members to devote all their energy to training on the other six maps.
At the beginning of the year, the map they banned forever was an ancient castle, but when the castle was officially moved out of the map pool in May, the map became a cache.
Tianlu's map training is actually somewhat similar to Team A. Because of Zhao Yiyang's "foresight" existence, they can not train the map that will be moved out of the map pool in the future, such as the earliest ancient castle. This map was originally a strong map of Tianlu, but after Zhao Yiyang arrived, they took the initiative to give up the map and instead train the train.
Although the cache map is also considered a traditional map of Tianlu, Zhao Yiyang knew that this map would also be removed from the map pool, so their training for cache was gradually reduced, and they turned to train overpass and nuke.
Now, although Tianlu still hasn't reached the level of inferne, at least when facing a team that is not a unique skill, they will not take the initiative to ban him.
Everyone ended the training with a nervous mood and returned to their respective rooms.
At 10 a.m. tomorrow, they will usher in their first qualifying match, and their opponent is the most dominant CSGO team in history, Astralis!
...
"Good morning, everyone, welcome to watch this match between Tianlu and Astralis!"
“The match maps are train, overpass and inferno!”
From the perspective of the map, Tianlu is not too disadvantaged. After all, the train they chose is also the A-team map pool, but Tianlu is confident that he can compete with any team on this map.
As for Figure 2, this is obviously a stronger map for Team A, but if Tianlu can drag the game into Figure 3 inferno, then it is really hard to say who will win.
"The most critical game today is the first map, train!"
"This map is very storytelling for both teams! The beginning of Astralis' legend, which is their first major, was on the final victory map, that is, the train map, to complete the Jedi reversal of the VP!"
"For Tianlu, this map is a brand new training map after Light joined the team. Because of the light's characteristics, they have defeated countless powerful enemies on this map, and it is their 'champion map'!"
"So, on the first map, both sides have opportunities. The key is to see who can seize the opportunity!"
Everyone held their breath and sat on the opposite platform while watching the screen. Each team member had a serious face. Even if he was as strong as Team A, they didn't want to play one more round of round-robin matches. After all, playing one more round will add another round of variables.
This is the major competition. As long as they win another game, they can enter the legendary group and enter the quarterfinals. This result can be said to be a guaranteed record for these top ten teams in the world.
Especially for Tianlu, they have never entered the field of the legendary group. They want to play games in offline venues that truly belong to major, and this wish can be realized depends on whether they can reach the quarterfinals!
