Chapter 215 The ingenious idea brother

Before the finals, sjuush commented on the Flashpoint League.

"This tournament is really a piece of shit."

It can be seen from his tone and expression that he hates the tournament from the bottom of his heart.

Naturally, he had a very good reason for saying this.

The first is that the bonus for the first season of the Flashpoint League has not been paid to him so far.

At this point, Sjuush looked helpless: "The winner is worth 500,000 US dollars!"

As mentioned above, acoR and sjuush were teammates in MAD Lions for two years.

The MAD Lions at that time defeated MIBR led by Fallen and won the championship in the first season of the Flashpoint League.

The other three players on the team at the time were AcilioN, roeJ and Bubzkji.

Second, it’s a format that makes everyone want to complain about it.

Double elimination playoff without dividing into groups.

If it were arranged like this in the group stage, it would be reasonable.

Because the current group matches of mainstream CSGO events basically adopt a double-elimination system.

But from the very beginning, the Flashpoint League consisted of sixteen teams, regardless of group stage, and they competed head-on.

As a result, the schedule is very tight and the players feel very tired after playing.

The third point is also the most criticized point.

There is no advantage at all for the first place winner.

NiP was defeated by Heroic once and fell into the loser's bracket, but they fought their way out of the loser's bracket and finally met Heroic in the finals.

The final is the last game of the entire tournament.

But Heroic can't win the championship as long as he loses once.

No chance to do it again.

The tournament did not set a "1:0" winner group advantage for the final.

cadiaN shrugged and was speechless about the above points: "But we still have to do our best. Moreover, there is probably no fourth season of the Flashpoint League. This will be the last time you see the organizer."

Everyone has heard of this.

Because about this bullshit tournament.

Players on some mainstream forums such as Reddit and Hltv have already criticized it.

The main issue is the rematch between NiP and Anonymo.

If NiP were eliminated early, some players wouldn't be so angry.

By the way, this group of players are mainly Polish players, and Anonymo is a Polish club.

But now NiP advanced to the finals as the first place in the lower bracket.

That group of players immediately jumped out.

In addition, a series of issues such as the competition system and schedule were all picked out by the players and criticized.

The dead pig in the competition is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.

Play dead.

The player's anger was vented on V Club.

Although Valve has not said anything officially, various rumors have indicated that after this competition, Valve will no longer have anything to do with the Flashpoint League.

As for why not spray sponsors.

Because this season's Flashpoint League has no sponsors at all, the previous two terrible games have wiped out all the sponsors...

"Then let's defeat NiP again." Wang Che shrugged, not really minding it.

"Clear is right, we only need to defeat NiP once more." cadiaN patted sjuush on the shoulder and said comfortingly. "And this competition, we are not doing it for bonuses, but for RMR points and Major."

"Calm down and enjoy the game."

At this time, in the NiP training room, coach THREAT had a sad face, and Hampus next to him was holding his chin with one hand, as if thinking about something.

There is a problem that has been bothering them.

What should BP do?

After a long silence, Hampus said: "It's better to ban the building. We have practiced this map too little to be able to use it against Heroic."

"Is the ruins enough?" THREAT soul tortured.

The Flashpoint League used Ancient ruins as the competition map, which caught them off guard.

We can only embrace Buddhism temporarily and place our hopes on the other party not to choose.

In fact, most teams will not choose it and will remove it in the second round of BAN.

Only Heroic is an exception.

Now in the finals, the opponent is still the devil-like Heroic team.

If you take it forcibly and beat it, I'm afraid you will make the same mistake again.

The fatal problem of NiP’s map pool being shallow has been exposed once again.

Regarding this issue, until this moment, the two of them still had not discussed the reason.

"dev1ce, ruins or building, which one do you choose?" Hampus suddenly looked up to the far right and asked.

He broke the jar.

I can only place my hope on that man.

"Actually...I can do either." dev1ce took off his headphones and said quietly. "If I have to choose, the building would be it."

"Okay, then the building." Hampus nodded.

Without any other better way, THREAT could only accept its fate.

…

June 4, 2021, 3pm local time in Copenhagen.

Flashpoint League finals, Heroic vs. NiP.

The first thing cadiaN did after entering the server was to conduct map BP.

The first round of BAN map, NiP BAN first, ancient ruins.

"Huh? Release the building?" Seeing Hampus's decision, cadiaN's eyes widened.

Neither Xizt nor he seemed to have expected this.

Because NIP's first ban throughout the entire tournament was a death building.

If it is suddenly released, will there be any tactics to target it?

Or have you specially practiced to have a big move?

cadiaN knows that dev1ce still has two tools to attack the building.

but……

Heroic has even beaten Red Star, are you still worried that he won't be able to make it to NiP?

After only two seconds of hesitation, cadiaN immediately clicked Vertigo on the screen.

I was afraid that the building would run away.

Ordered twice.

Then I realized that something seemed wrong...

"What? Heroic didn't remove Dust2, but chose to ban Vertigo? What kind of operation is this?"

In the 6657 live broadcast room, I was afraid of missing the pistol round while playing the machine, so I locked the live broadcast on the broadcast screen in advance. When I saw this BP, I suddenly felt that I had seen an unimaginable scene.

"NiP did not hesitate to select Sand 2 as the first match map. For the second map, Heroic chose Lost City, then banned Purgatory Town and Death Amusement Park, and finally the decisive map was Nuclear Crisis."

"As we all know, Heroic does not play Dust2. The last time they played Dust2 was back in EPL13. They used a big move against the Black Panthers in the semi-finals, actively chose Dust2, and then won the game."

"But that was a few months ago..."

"Now, they came to the finals but deliberately let Dust2 go. Did Brother Diandi and Xizt have any ingenious tactics and preparations?"

"I'm starting to look forward to it, brothers..."

"..."
