In Sydney in May, the average temperature is around 20 degrees, which is a very comfortable temperature, so that everyone can start to bloom in this early spring and show their aesthetics.

Xu Beibei was wearing a denim jacket and a black wide-legged pants underneath, and after being full of wine and food, the whole person looked very lazy.

The final of IEM Sydney has officially ended last night, and the tension that has been on the table since entering the schedule seems to have relaxed in this atmosphere.

He's actually still a little confused.

After beating Liquid 3-0 last night, the big guys of the little bees were very happy, so they thought about where to go to have a little wine to celebrate.

No one knows more about nightclubbing than NIKO.

Xu Beifang asked for the address of the NIKO nightclub, and the rain god came over and took them to a good nightclub nearby, and then it was a carnival all night, completely releasing the pressure at this moment.

Although it has the name of CSGO succubus.

But the nightclub is not Xu Beibei's home field, shox and apEX dance wildly in the nightclub, making the atmosphere hot.

However, Xu Beibei, who played a pervert, was still poured a lot of wine by Faze and a group of old men, and he forgot how to return to the hotel later.

When I woke up, it was already noon, and I was pulled over by my teammates for lunch.

After lunch, the holiday has begun, and the bald coach and Bean talk about walking and walking to eliminate food, and at the same time take a good look at the scenery of Sydney.

The game is over, all the teammates are relaxed, one by one wearing their regular clothes, Xu Beibei, who is walking behind, sees shox and apEX walking shoulder to shoulder, leaves fall in the air from time to time, vehicles drive next to them, the afternoon sun hits the body, people can't help but feel a little tired.

Xu Beifang looked at the various scenery around him, there was nothing particularly surprising, but the ants on the side of the road, the flashing traffic lights at the intersection, and the height of those trees all made him feel interesting.

The breeze caressed the face, cool and comfortable, and the chirping of unknown birds in the distance.

Perhaps many years later, he can still recall the joy of this afternoon in a trance.

It wasn't until the phone in his pants pocket vibrated that his thoughts were disrupted.

I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it.

Since the end of last night's game, he basically didn't care about his mobile phone, and he went crazy to play in the nightclub.

Now I took out my mobile phone and saw that the messages of WeChat, Twitter, and Xiaopo Station were all 99+.

Xu Beifang is already very proficient in using the WeChat group sending function, and replied to everyone in a group thanks.

Then he found some friends with whom he was close and replied in a different tone.

This still has to be paid attention to, for example, the way he gets along with the machine is definitely not the same as the iron egg.

Iron eggs just scold a couple of sentences when they go up.

After replying to Tie Dan and a few people, Xu Beifang found his brother Nanfang again and prepared to report the good news to his family.

But when I clicked on the opening picture, I found that Nanfang had already sent him a message last night.

South: The North can, the second champion!!

Nanfang: It's really handsome today! Keep up the good work!!

A video was also posted below, Xu Beifang clicked on it to view.

As soon as the video played, he saw the familiar competition area of his Internet café.

Some of the layout of things in that competition area was redone by Xu Beifang after the Star League, so they were recognizable at a glance.

On the curtain of the competition area, there was a picture of the players shaking hands after the game, and the sound was very noisy, and from time to time someone said: "Xiao Xu is awesome", "" and other exclamations.

It's past 1 p.m. in Sydney, and it should be close to 11 p.m. in China.

Xu Beifang thought for a while, and directly called a WeChat video to go over.

Without even waiting for a minute, Xu Nannan answered the phone, and he could even hear some noisy voices in the Internet café.

"I went to work this morning, haven't you come home for dinner?" Xu Beifang said with a smile.

Xu Nannan rubbed his eyes and yawned: "Why do you go to work so early, I just arrived at the store after breakfast at home." ”

"You boss is lazy, aren't you, be careful that your sister-in-law doesn't give you pocket money."

"I'm in charge of the money, and I still use your sister-in-law to give me pocket money?" Xu Nannan smiled, and then explained, "The main thing is that I watched the game last night, and I was so excited that I couldn't do it, and you didn't reply to a few messages sent to you in the evening...... Then I want to go to the Internet to see how everyone praises you, and I saw a lot of your highlights, I know it, and I called my whole blood boiling, and I directly found a computer and prepared to go on the wave. ”

"Then last night, I played that perfect platform, and I won a total of 5 games, and I was given a C+." Xu Nannan was angry when he said it, "I either killed the first or killed the second, the result was that I couldn't win, this group of teammates walked and aimed at the ground, flashing all their own people, and even one game ran into a stun gun, my blood pressure went up, and I couldn't sleep anymore, I wanted to go home to sleep in the second half of the night, your sister-in-law's mobile phone was turned off, and no one opened the door for me......"

Xu Beifang couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard this.

Many players are like this, looking at the highlights of some professional players, their blood boils in an instant, and then they run to hit the ladder in high spirits, and the result is that they don't squeak one by one.

"Still laughing! Laugh at me again, I'll give you a brain meltdown! Listening to his brother's laughter, Nanfang was a little annoyed.

"Don't laugh, don't laugh." Xu Beifang forced the corners of his mouth down, but looking at Nanfang's face in the video, he couldn't help laughing.

Xu Nannan listened to his brother's smile, but he didn't get serious, and soon Bengbu stopped laughing.

After this topic ended, Xu Nannan asked his younger brother's itinerary: "After this game, do you have any holidays in the north?" ”

Perhaps because they were all adrift at sea, they cherished the reunion between their families.

"I heard apEX say that after playing Sydney, there will be a period of vacation, and we will win two major championships in a row, although everyone is happy, but they are also a little tired, and the coach asked us to relax and adjust a little."

These professional players are sometimes like power banks.

After venting all your energy in the game, the electricity will be all gone, and then you have to go home, get away from the game a little, recharge yourself, and restore your energy and desire to win.

"The coach should have said later today, anyway, if you go back, I'll let you know in advance."

Xu Nannan nodded: "Okay, then I'll eat bucket instant noodles first, and I'll wait for you to take me to score when I go home." ”

"No, we have a point difference haha."

"You kid, you really want to be beaten, don't you?"

Although there is a slight age gap between their brothers, Xu Beifang played with his brother behind his ass when he was a child, and there is no generation gap now.

Slightly tired from walking, they sat down on a stone bench next to the park to rest for a while.

My teammates are talking about the recent football game in France, and they want to go to see one together when they return home.

Xu Beifang is not particularly interested in this, he knows that football is a good sport, but maybe because of the development of domestic football, he doesn't like it.

He also went to a football game with his teammates in France before, but the problem was that he didn't know any of the players, and he was also a lively watcher.

That's the slight difference between him and his teammates today, because he grew up in a different environment, and there are always some small arguments in the face of different things.

The teammates were discussing football, and Xu Beifang didn't want to "RNM, return the money" with one hand, so he simply brushed up the forum and started surfing.

Half a day has passed since the little bee won the championship, and this is the time when the forum is at its hottest.

Xu Beifang casually swiped it, except for the news about the price of jewelry, the rest was a discussion of IEM Sydney's content.

[Last night, the little bee showed its strength what it means to fly wild bees! ] 】

[Rational discussion, is the boss a liquid buster, it seems that he only lost to the liquid once in his debut]

【To liquid treasures!】 】

[The liquid state of this event has not been very good, and the game is very confused, I hope they can adjust back in the future]

[In fact, the liquid is already very strong, this is the first team to force the boss to start the second stage]

[Nice: Because I'm too afraid of losing, it's 3:0 directly]

[I feel that the little bees have started to gain momentum in the past few months, and I feel that they really hope to win the Grand Slam]

[It's not that simple, the level of CSGO profession fluctuates too much, and it depends on whether this state can be continued in the future, but there is one thing to say, Xiao Xu is still very fierce]

Xu Beifang smiled, and then continued to flip down.

There is a carnival of little bee fans in the forum, and naturally there is the discomfort of liquid fans.

[I ordered a KFC for the finals last night, ready to enjoy the feast of marksmanship, but I did see the feast of marksmanship, but I don't want to eat KFC this month]

[Hello everyone, welcome to this little bee vs. liquid game, I'm the commentary machine in this game, okay, we see that the little bee has won the pistol game]

【Grass! I basically didn't win the liquid pistol game in this final.]

[Self-aiming still can't beat the violent lock]

[stewie2K I don't even know what he's playing in this final, there is basically no sound in the whole game]

[Several games.,It's also stewie2K who played around there and finally lost.,I don't know what the liquid bought him for]

Even the output of liquid fans is actually relatively convergent, and today's network environment has not yet entered the level of yin and yin in later generations.

The reason why domestic fans are not friendly to stewie2K is more because of the airport incident.

As for stewie2K's play, he thinks it's more decent.

stewie2K's role as a liquid player is more of a lubricant for a gun man, and influencing the opponent's mentality with his style of play.

In downwind games, stewie2K monkey screams, knife men, and whip corpses can directly provoke the emotions of opponents.

But in the case of headwinds, this kind of thing is not used.

And to be honest, Xu Beifang is not afraid of stewie2K engaging in this kind of thing.

He didn't think that Bean next to him was worse than stewie2K in taunting, Bean was always taunting, and his throat was itchy if he didn't shout at him for a day.

stewie2K's BO5 today, the performance is not bad, it can only be regarded as decent.

It's just that some people who can't understand the game will always take the buddy with bad data.

For example, the director of the Liquid team, even if he is not the worst, but the Liquid loses the game, and most of the time he becomes a member of the sprayed team.

After brushing the forum for a while, Xu Beifang planned to reply to the message of Xiaopo Station.

But as soon as I opened the Xiaopo station, I saw a lot of people @ him in the background.

He clicked in, and at a glance he saw the director appear in the camera.

This hairstyle ...... It should be after the game.

Glancing at the headline, it read "Director Post-Game Interview: Today we messed up everything, next time we'll get revenge".

Interesting...... This title caught Xu Beibei's attention, and he decisively clicked on the video to look down.

The director, with a slightly lost face, stood in front of a billboard of IEM Sydney and was interviewed by the host:

"Director, that's the end of the liquid IEM Sydney, I know it's going to be a tough game for you guys, but you know I interviewed you before the game and you were all fine at the time, why did it come to this?"

The director pursed his lips, he was actually in a bad mood, but he did have something he wanted to talk about.

"Actually, we also wanted to know why the confrontation in the final was like this, we did a lot of preparation for this final, we thought about how to limit Nice, and how we were going to deal with those little bees when they called those tactics......"

"To be honest I don't know why it was like this, we were under a lot of pressure throughout the game and we were very careful with every round and didn't want to give the opponent any chance." The director had a helpless look on his face, "But the end result is what you see." ”

He took a long breath and slowly exhaled it, as if this would relieve the boredom in his heart.

"The little bees played very well, especially in the desert maze, they have always been the leading party, and the highlights played by Nice have also been influencing our arrangement."

"It's also the first time I've seen a guy hit three five-kills in a professional game, and after the pistol game in the second half, the guy's touch was gone, and we tried to adjust, but in the end we couldn't."

"Nice was so foul today." The director finally complained, perhaps saying the thoughts that had accumulated in his heart, and his mood obviously became better.

The audience below the comment area also responded unanimously.

[Indeed, the boss is too foul]

[I can understand the director, I was also stunned to watch the finals, I have never seen such a fierce person]

[The little bees are also very strong as a whole, they are already the first in the world, and it is not a shame to lose to them]

No. 1 in the world?

Xu Beifang raised his eyebrows, he immediately opened the HLTV APP and found the team ranking.

At the top of the list is the little bee!

"Brothers, we are ranked No. 1 in the world by HLTV!" Xu Beifang happily shared the good news with his teammates.

The carrier poked his head over: "Where, where?" ”

"No. 1 in the world!" Xu Beifang said, "The ranking has just been updated today, and it should be that the score we beat Liquid to win the championship has been added." ”

apEX said, "So who is the second team in the world right now?" ”

"Team A, behind is liquid, and then behind is ENCE."

The big bald head looked at the excited team members and said with a smile: "The small goal we set before has been completed, so can we have some applause now?" ”

Hearing this, everyone applauded very cooperatively.

"No, isn't there a big gap between us and Team A?" apEX asked.

After the surprise, they were still puzzled, because they had roughly calculated that at least one championship and one knockout point were needed to keep up with Team A.

Xu Beifang flipped through the HLTV points ranking change list, and soon found the answer.

"Team A has participated in too few competitions in recent months, and it was difficult to participate in a Blast Miami before that, but it didn't win the championship, and there were no points in the account, and at the beginning of May, the points had actually dropped a lot, and it was not much different from our points. Then there was the bonus point we got yesterday for the championship, and we directly surpassed Team A. ”

Hearing this, the joy in the hearts of the little bees dissipated somewhat.

Once again, they understood in their hearts the strength of Team A.

Although they have become the number one in the world, in fact, do they really have the strength to be the number one in the world? It only proves that they are the best team in the world in recent months.

They became the number one in the world because Team A didn't play much and was in a half-rest state.

Moreover, they feel that Team A is likely to want to be an old yin because they don't play games in the near future.

It is very likely that Team A is using this time to temporarily not be exposed to the first-line game, and there are a bunch of tactics hidden in the back, and they have also studied all the excellent tactics of the current first-line game.

Team A was hidden in the dark, which made them very stressed on the bright side, and several people felt a little stressed for a while.

shox felt that the atmosphere was depressing, and took the initiative to change the topic: "Don't talk about this, I feel that this IEM is so fast, I don't feel anything, we will win the cup...... Alas, I should have stayed on the stage for a while last night, and after playing for more than half a month, we were sent in 30 minutes. ”

In fact, before the final, Shox and his teammates also said this, because compared to the game in Shanghai, this competition in Sydney was very easy from the group stage, all the way to the finals, and did not encounter particularly difficult games, he thought that the opposite side of the final would be more difficult, but the result was 3-0 end, thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh again.

"These two finals in the north are so unexpected, it's too scary."

It's been a long time since he joined the little bee, and Shox won't look at Xu Beifang with the same eyes as before, but Xu Beifang's performance in these two finals was still unexpected by him after all, and when it first happened, it also caused his eyes to widen, and he couldn't imagine what power the tall man in front of him was still confused.

Last time I played a 1v5 endgame of the year in the Stars League, this time I got three five-kills on a single map.

He couldn't imagine where the limit of Xu Beibei's ability was?

"Just get used to it." apEX has long been flat.

When Xu Beifang creates highlights, he will also get up and shout very cooperatively, becoming the flashpoint of the team's atmosphere.

But in fact, in his heart now, there is nothing that the twin stars in the team can't do.

No matter how difficult the endgame is, they still feel that there is a slight possibility of turning the tables in their hearts while watching the game?

"Coach, this may be what you call self-confidence." apEX walked to the side of the big bald head, "Although it is a bit flamboyant, I feel that the little bee now is much stronger than when the team was first created." ”

XTQZZZ plucked the leaves that floated to his head, and his bald head was so good, no matter what was on his head, he could react immediately.

"Whether a player has really experienced a big scene is a very important part." He took the leaf and turned it in his hand, "Actually, it's not just CSGO, many esports industries, as long as they have reached the finals...... It's not obvious to get to the final, as long as you can win the championship, you can see their style of play next year, and there will really be a qualitative change. ”

"Because they have confidence from the bottom of their hearts, they don't think that they will be weaker than other players and other teams."

"Team A is like that, they have won too many championships, no one is better than them in terms of confidence, they have even taken the initiative to take a break, to put it mildly, they just feel that the current professional game is not very challenging, no team can threaten them."

"You think it's a conceit, but it's actually the huge confidence that comes from their 10 titles last year, the highest CSGO honor, the 1 million dollar Grand Slam, the Major Championship, but do you think anyone can threaten their position now?"

apEX finds it difficult, even though Team A has recently begun to enter a state of rest, but as long as they participate in official competitions, Team A will be able to reach the finals, and this kind of stable ability makes people feel very oppressive.

He glanced to the left front, Xu Beifang and Zaiwu were sitting there, one was surfing the Internet passionately, and the other was watching a video of small animals.

"Nice said in the post-match interview last night that if we want to challenge for a Grand Slam next, it will indeed be our next goal on the spot, but it will be difficult to win this Grand Slam."

JackZ touched his chin and said, "The first opponent in front of us is Team A. ”

Although they defeated Liquid and came to the No. 1 position in the world, Team A is still a big mountain in front of them.

If they want to be the second Grand Slam team to win $1 million, they will have to see Team A as an imaginary opponent of the future.

"Compared to Team A, our map pool is a big problem, and now it's no problem for our town, building, maze, and Sha Er to take out these maps, and the train will definitely be banned, so don't worry about it for the time being." The big bald head counted, "The overall level of the two maps of nuclear crisis and death amusement park is worse, and when you come back from rest, you must practice these two maps." ”

"Team A's nuclear crisis, the liquid amusement park, these are all hurdles that we need to overcome."

"In the next few events, let's take the initiative to choose these maps, and use a lot of games to directly pull up the map level."

The bald coach looked at the twin stars who were watching the video, and patted apEX on the shoulder: "Come on, we still have a long way to go." ”

……

This is the end of the plot in Sydney, and then return to China to start some daily links, relax, and try to recover tomorrow.
