Dual Pistols Will Tell You Who I Am

Hearing the sound of utility being thrown outside the Yellow Room in Area A, Fnatic's team comms began to communicate in an orderly fashion.

"There are a lot of them, it's probably a smoke rush from T spawn. I'll check the Yellow Room, poizon, you watch the Gate for me," ALEX said, walking directly to the other end of the Yellow Room and holding the exit with Dual Pistols.

mezii, who was scouting with a USP from the third floor, reminded them, "Didn't see anyone outside. I'm going back to A site from the third floor. Be careful, someone might be rotating through the main entrance."

"I'll smoke myself and then peek," ALEX said, dropping the first flash from the Yellow Room. He then saw the Terrorist with the bomb coming out of the Yellow Room entrance.

"Saw the bomb, saw the bomb." Just as ALEX was about to shoot the second Terrorist coming out of the Yellow Room, he was blinded by the second flashbang thrown by the Terrorist.

Although he fired a few shots based on instinct, he was unfortunately headshot and killed by a Glock.

Meanwhile, poizon, hiding in the dead pipe, only managed to trade one attacking Terrorist.

Area A was cleared, and the Terrorist with the bomb directly planted it at the main entrance near the Yellow Room.

"A 3v4 retake. Fnatic should go for it, right?" Ma Xixi's perspective locked onto Qin Feng, who was pushing out from the metal plate connector. "The CTs know someone is throwing utility from the back, so Aether has to watch out for RuStY throwing utility."

Mo's tone was a bit anxious, "Aether doesn't seem to know there's still a Terrorist hiding in the T spawn throwing utility. It's over."

"Eh, no, RuStY missed his shot and didn't hit the head."

"RuStY knows Aether is going to push him first, so he's not daring to expose himself."

"Peeking with a small angle, what, he got one-tapped by Dual Pistols?"

"He died that fast?"

The chat in CSBOY's stream was overwhelming. Even though it wasn't a Chinese team's match today, due to Aether's presence, the viewership for the Fnatic vs. GL match was still very high.

[Peek, peek, peek, peek at your Steel Helmet.]

[Remember these Dual Pistols!]

[It's still hard to retake a 3v3, and ALEX even gave them a pair of Dual Pistols.]

Ma Xixi, seeing Aether instantly kill RuStY who was peeking with a wiggle, became more passionate. "Can mezii on the third floor dare to peek? KRIMZ is rotating through the K1 to the main entrance. Aether just got to the outside of the Yellow Room."

"mezii threw a self-flash and still peeked, but two Terrorists were waiting for him at the bomb site."

"Can mezii win? He lost the gunfight, what a shame."

"Aether from the Yellow Room came out to trade the kill, taking down eraa who was reloading at the bomb site. KRIMZ, who pushed in from the main entrance, also instantly killed the other Terrorist at the bomb site."

"What about Zero hiding behind the A bomb pillar?"

"All his teammates are dead, it's all up to Zero."

"Aether is pushing from the Yellow Door, KRIMZ is pushing from the other side. What can he do?"

"Caught between a rock and a hard place, he got instantly killed by Dual Pistols."

"There's enough time to defuse."

Most of the audience in the stream couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

[Who I am, Dual Pistols will tell you the answer.]

[Who was it that said Aether can't play Nuke? Come out and take your beating!]

[I didn't notice him last time when playing in the China Major qualifiers. This Aether is a little bit handsome, isn't he? Feels even more handsome than Tom Cruise?]

"NICE." mezii, who had died for free on the third floor, couldn't help but high-five Qin Feng after he successfully defused the bomb.

These 300 yuan Dual Pistols weren't wasted.

Aether is someone you can rely on; if you give him a gun, he can actually carry.

Coach Samuelsson, watching the live stream outside the training room, excitedly clenched his fist.

Also a talented young player who dominated in FPL, Aether's performance in matches was miles ahead of Peppzor.

During the preparation time for the second round, Qin Feng glanced at his economy.

Exactly 4850 yuan.

"Aether, if you get an AWP, do you want to go outside and snipe?" poizon, who was supposed to be defending A site, suggested.

"No need. They planted the bomb last round, so they'll likely force buy this round," Qin Feng shook his head. "I'll defend the metal plate alone. Let KRIMZ go down the tunnel to K1, and the three of you take A."

The GL players, having lost the pistol round, didn't look too happy.

It was originally a 4v3 clutch situation, but under crossfire, they only managed a 4-for-1 trade.

This was something they couldn't accept.

"Why don't we push the metal plate quickly?" Zero looked at his teammates sitting next to him. "We can afford four rifles this round, but we have too little utility. We don't have enough utility to clear the A bomb site."

"Alright, the one defending B site is probably that new guy, Aether. He got a triple kill on us last round. This round, brothers, let's regain our momentum," iM encouraged his teammates, who were a bit dejected after losing the pistol round.

The five Terrorists, without throwing any utility outside, ran from their spawn towards the connector leading to the metal plate, with knives out.

"GL isn't even planning to smoke off the outer lane? They must be planning to speed-push through the gate or rush the metal plate," Mo analyzed the in-game situation. "They're not planning a T spawn smoke rush on A? Then they must be planning a metal plate rush. KRIMZ is watching K1 from the tunnel, but this effectively leaves Aether alone to defend B."

Ma Xixi added, "Aether bought an AWP but didn't get full armor. He's not at much of an advantage against their Galil AR. Both the AK and Galil will one-tap him. And if Aether misses his shot, Fnatic's metal plate and B site will be lost immediately."

"When Peppzor was still here, Peppzor would usually defend the metal plate, and poizon would use his sniper rifle to assist from the third floor."

"Will Aether miss this shot?"

Everyone knew that if the first shot was missed, the Terrorists would likely rush and kill Qin Feng at the sniper's nest.

Missing a shot with the AWP on the third floor might allow a retreat to the CT spawn, but if the sniper missed, the inevitable outcome was being re-peaked and eliminated by the Terrorists.

"No one seen outside, and they haven't thrown any utility," KRIMZ at Outer K1 reminded them.

"Movement in T-hall, looks like they're pushing connector. If Aether can't hold it, fall back to B site," ALEX quickly directed over voice comms. "As long as you don't die, it's fine even if they get into the site. KRIMZ can fall back to control room and crossfire with you."

For Fnatic, as long as Qin Feng's sniper rifle wasn't immediately taken out, they would accept it even if GL managed to plant the bomb.

However, Qin Feng clearly didn't want to give GL a chance to plant.

The most important thing for a sniper is confidence.

Why did karrigan leave behind that infamous moment in the ancient castle, where he was killed by kennyS after being shot 12 times in the back?

It was precisely because he wanted to play it safe with the USP, which earned him the title of "the world's best USP user."

If karrigan had directly pushed out with the AWP at that time, kennyS would likely have found it very difficult to win the 1v2 clutch while planting in the ancient castle.

As they spoke, a sliver of a GL player's arm appeared in the center of the sniper scope.

"Full rush?"

"Don't be impulsive, look who it is!"

Qin Feng directly pulled the sniper rifle's trigger.

BANG!

[Fnatic.Aether eliminated GL.isak with AWP] [Fnatic.Aether eliminated GL.eraa with AWP through wallbang]

One kill through two players!

This completely stumped the remaining three GL members.

Zero, who had been about to push out with his teammates, immediately retreated back towards T-hall.

"Forget it, let's not push connector," Zero sighed. "I thought this new guy would give the AWP to poizon, but who knew he'd grab a sniper rifle himself."

Zero felt like there was nowhere to complain.

Weren't they told that poizon was their team's sniper?
