Chapter 129: Peak Duel (1)
Chapter 129: The Peak Duel (1)
25 April 2002.
On this day, the sky was blue, the sun was shining, and the breath of spring had bloomed to the extreme.
The Paris Versailles Exhibition Center ushered in the highest peak of the exhibition history, and the three floors inside and the outer three floors were full of people.
People from all over the world who love CS, not to mention the media and experts.
Today, the top teams and experts from more than 50 countries and regions around the world gathered together to wait for the final Masters king.
A star-studded 3D vehicle against the dark horse MDK.
This first ESC trial tournament is even more legendary than the CPL in '01.
After half a year of sinking, the United States suddenly returned to the position of the battle of kings like a tank with full power, and the proud and careless European aristocrats learned a lesson in this competition.
Giants 3D defeated all the enemies that stood in their way without any danger, no matter who these enemies were, and when they met, there was only one end, that is, to go back to their hometown. Even SK, which was in great form, was beaten by 3D.
Compared with the glory and madness of 3D, MDK has gone extremely hard along the way, losing 4K in the first game, and then the dark horse wakes up in a deep sleep, and the promoted horse who has taken medicine struggles desperately all the way, cutting Saudi Arabia's TVCC, slashing Malaysia's Clan4, bombing Japan's JCCT, and sniping Germany's Mouz, the most crazy thing for the audience is the battle of MDKVSSK, MDK actually pulled SK off the horse.
The world is amazed, the world is shocked.
CS rivers and lakes are confusing, and there are talents from generation to generation.
Although it is an American giant, people have seen the awesomeness of Asian players.
In the final championship battle, it is difficult for you to judge which of these two families is the boss.
3D is too raw and fierce, and MDK is too magical and exaggerated, but there can only be one person in the king.
Before the contestants entered, all the lights in the main venue had been turned on, and the tens of thousands of spectators under the lights were almost all waving the Star-Spangled Banner and singing "Song of the Warriors".
In addition to Erin and her entourage, there are also superstars from eoL, Mouz, and Sk, and even the U.S. Embassy sent official representatives to watch the game, with a simple purpose, to show the strength of the United States, the "world's first brother".
There shouldn't be a political component to the CS world, but you have to admit that it's often politics that makes the game so much attention.
Not only the United States, but also in distant China at this moment, I don't know how many Lu Fei's fans are already waiting in front of Internet cafes, televisions, and computers.
The Shenwang of Xijing University has removed all computers today, leaving the projector and TV set in the middle, and Duan Jiu Lei Ming A large group of people sat on the ground in the middle, and everyone didn't care about sitting on the ground, because what everyone cares about now is not themselves, but Lu Fei, who is Chinese and is China's honor.
When the players of both sides entered from the players' tunnel, the audience burst into earth-shattering applause, and the official commentator explained the names of the players one by one to people all over the world in the most passionate voice, and the central screen also showed today's matchup.

According to the rules of the tournament, 3D only needs to win one map to win the final showdown between the two groups of champions, while MDK must win both battles to declare victory, which means that no map can be lost. Because of the previous match, 3D was undefeated, while MDK lost a 4K match.
"It's going to be an earth-shattering battle because it represents the highest level in the United States, but also the world's best level, and the American CS is passionate and the most spectacular game in the world, so let's welcome both teams to the court." Mix wasn't funny today, and it was clear that he wasn't only excited, but also took the game seriously.
He was not the only one who was excited, Ray, who was already seated on the competition stage, was flushed, and Lu Fei, who was sitting next to him, felt that there was a hot breath on Ray's whole body, maybe it was not heat, but murderous.
The 3D people on the opposite side used to be his good friends, and they fought side by side, but since they were ruthlessly driven out of X3, reduced to a second-rate team, and invited out of the mountain by Lu Fei, all kinds of feelings in between, really made him hold back his resentment, even when he was competing with SK, he was trying his best to restrain himself, and he wanted to release all the peerless monsters today to avenge Jenny's revenge for driving him away.
In the first map, Desert II, MDK first plays the role of a police officer, and after more than 30 minutes of fighting to warm up, the screen begins to refresh.
The audience fell silent, and the world-renowned battle was about to begin.
"According to all the technical statistics, in terms of pistol game and pistol ability, 3D is currently the team with a very high winning rate in the world, and even 4K is still a little behind, 3D pistol game win rate is 82%, and the pistol ECO reversal win rate is also as high as 43%, so let's take a look at the situation in the first game." Zhu Zong only cared about the technical information and explained, the pistol bureau had begun.
There is no need to say much about the 3D lineup, and Csers all over the world know that this lineup is almost invincible, and it is a big cut stronger than SK.
"I still expect the tactical stream to win this game." Vesslan looked at the screen silently.
Element laughed, "Of course, you're a master tactician. ”
"No, you're mistaken." Vesslan explained, "It's not that I like tactics to expect Lu to win, but because although the 3D group is strong, we can always find a way to deal with them, and Lu is different, if he wins today, then I will have a new goal in the future, and I will seriously think about finding a way to eliminate him." ”
Element looked at him incredulously.
In the other corner of the audience, SK's Potti and HeatoN shared Vesslan's views.
"Which side do you think is more likely?" HeatoN asked.
"The winning side is definitely bigger in 3D, but Lu and his team are also elusive, so let's take a look," Potti said. ”
HeatoN nodded.
The first game did not go as one might expect, with both sides being cautious at the start for the championship.
As soon as the two groups were born, many experts and viewers were stunned.
As soon as the 3D five sand eagles came out, they rushed towards the Rush in the B area, and the action was extremely fast.
"Sure enough, the artist is bold, and he will attack strongly as soon as he comes out." Zhu Zong's nervous explanation.
Mix shouted, "It's not good on MDK's side. ”
It's really not a good situation, because MDK's formation at the beginning is a steady and heavy dispersion, the standard 311 distribution, the person who enters Area B is precisely Ray, the middle gate is sentry by Lu Fei, Yin Xinxuan puts Lordanren on the top of the trail on the slope box, and the monkey goes straight to the corner of the avenue.
This is a formation that relies on front-line reconnaissance tactics to fight and retreat, and if 3D advances steadily, then MDK will have enough time and space to maneuver and fight, but 3D seems to know in advance that MDK will do this, so it is simply very straightforward Rush.
As soon as Steel, the first leader, stepped out of the door of the B hole, everyone in the audience seemed to have the same feeling: the first game of MDK was probably over.
This idea was immediately subverted after a second.
"Bang bang bang!"
The USP gunshot rang out so quickly and so quickly that just listening to the sound made me feel like the person who fired the shot was in a hurry.
And then......
Headshot!
Headshot!
Headshot!
Headshot!
MDKRay shoots 3DSteel!
MDKRay shoots 3DMorgan!
MDKRay Shoots 3DKim!
MDKRay shoots 3DMoto!
8 shots, 4 headshots!
The 3D crowd didn't react at all, and they were all sent flying.
It's not that there is no reaction, it's not that Ray is too fast, but Ray is ruthless at the moment, and Kim feels that Ray is completely desperate to put himself down.
What is this not a madman?
No one spoke.
It's not because of this 4 consecutive kills, but just two seconds later, everyone has a feeling again: this game, it is likely that there will be a lot of accidents, and you must not easily judge until the end.
"Good gun!" Zhu Zong came out with a sentence in the Chinese CS dialect.
"Oh, MyGod, this madman ......" Mix's mouth gapped.
The sound of "CounterTerroristsin" sounded 34 seconds later.
Miller was chased to death by the MDK crowd on the upper floor of hole B, the reason was that the monkey who had been pounced on the avenue in Zone A never stopped, and as soon as the gun rang out in Zone B, he directly pounced on Zone A, went up the slope, and rushed to the high platform.
At this time, Miller was retreating, and after the monkey's delay, Miller killed the monkey but Lu Fei and his party gathered in hole B and shot him to death.
"This So is not simple, without him, the battle situation behind Miller is likely to drag MDK to death one by one." Vesslan said.
"Yes." Element nodded in agreement.
In the second game, under the watchful eye, MDK ignored the economic pressure and forcibly forced five unarmored M4s, with grenade flashes.
"They're completely disregarding economic tactics." Mix began to exclaim.
"Look at 3D." Zhu Zong also exclaimed.
In 3D, there are five sand eagles on this side, and there is also RushB area.
"It's ......" Vesslan was taken aback, Elment was a little a**, and Potti couldn't read it.
