Chapter 88: Narrow Loss? The Streamer Is Still Talking Big!
Facing off against two professional players head-on and securing the victory in the game, this got the audience in the live stream room extremely excited.
Good good good!
As expected, Unreal never lies, professional level really is professional level.
To actually pull off such an imaginative operation.
Throwing away his own sniper rifle to attract Qie Zi’s attention.
This is absolute intellectual suppression.
The match ideas of both sides are simply not on the same level.
Seeing a bunch of people in the live stream room spamming bullet comments praising him.
Li Fan smiled and said, “Haven’t you guys watched simple’s Dragon Snipe from the sky? I don’t know why, but that operation suddenly popped into my head just now, and I couldn’t help but want to recreate it. Mainly the opportunity was great; if I didn’t recreate it, I’d definitely regret it.”
Simple hasn’t reached his peak period yet, but he’s already shown extremely strong dominance.
Last year he pulled off two ultimate highlight moments.
Blind snipe angel!
V Society even specially made it into graffiti.
You can find this graffiti on the B site of the Dead City Mystery map.
And the Dragon Snipe from the sky.
As the Hand of God, simple’s strength lies in how everyone who watches his operations thinks they could recreate it themselves.
Most of the time it’s a flash of inspiration; he’s a very instinctive player.
Unlike other snipers who just rigidly set up sniper after picking up a sniper rifle.
And 2021 was his true peak period.
He became the number one person to smurf in the professional player circle.
Actually, there were indeed people in the live stream room mentioning simple’s Dragon Snipe from the sky from last year, but because there were just too many people in the live stream room, those few bullet comments were quickly drowned out.
After all, CS hasn’t gone free-to-play yet, so there are only so many players, even fewer watch matches, especially foreign matches. Without a group spamming it, no one would notice.
When this group heard Li Fan actually talking about these things in the live stream room, they all silently started sending gifts.
Damn, this is a true old CS player!
But why go be a League of Legends professional player?
cnCS is short on geniuses like you young talents right now; cnCS always feels dull and lackluster.
Li Fan felt the same way.
Mainly because just now when clashing with Qie Zi… he felt kinda noobish.
Completely unlike what hindsight short videos say, having extremely strong dominance in his peak period.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to recreate simple’s Dragon Snipe from the sky.
After Li Fan finished speaking, amid the dense “???” and “awesome” bullet comments in the live stream room, a few different contents started popping up sporadically.
【Simple? Who’s that?】
【Dragon Snipe from the sky? What the heck?】
【Unreal even knows this? Don’t you play PUBG and Speed every day? How do you know all the classic CSGO moments?】
Li Fan smiled, exiting the settlement interface while saying, “Simple is the real monster. His sniper rifle makes opponents feel suppressed the entire time, like playing a horror game.”
“CS this game is fun precisely because of these things. Marksmanship is important, but sometimes thinking faster can create unexpected effects. Simple is the type where both marksmanship and brain are top-tier.”
【Got it, Unreal means the only difference between him and Simple is marksmanship; their brains are already on the same level】
【Good guy, straight up good guy, full marks for this wave of self-praise!】
【But seriously, to think of it and perfectly recreate it, that’s awesome in itself!】
【Looks like it’s not just random play; he really studied it.】
“Alright alright, high-end match done, proof provided. What next?” Li Fan stretched lazily, his tone lightening up again. “How about… we head next door to PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds for some scenery?”
【Unreal you troll, pulling off a Dragon Snipe from the sky today means tons more people will try recreating it. I don’t even dare imagine how many will run off to feed snipers!】
【Yeah, someone claims their sniping is master level, then throws their teammate’s sniper away to feed. Is he even human?】
【Bad, now not only do you fight wits with opponents, but watch for traitors inside. Can’t play CSGO for a while!】
【Surrendered, last time teaching dual pistols, even if losing later you could still full armor Bullpup. All teammates I meet are Bullpup players; this time we’re screwed again!】
【Unreal so mean, not playing Bullpup on top ladder yourself, but teaching everyone Bullpup and coming up with a whole Bullpup Economy?】
“My dual pistols into Bullpup combo… works on ladder too! There’s a weapon that gets stronger the more you spray, that’s Bullpup PP91. Come on, let me show you this playstyle works on ladder too.”
Of course only on ladder… on arena that screen would be too beautiful.
Early game transition is fine, mid-game still need rifles.
“When playing Bullpup, just remember, don’t think about strafe stopping or anything, no need to consider it at all. Hold left mouse and rush B!” Li Fan said while starting another ladder match.
“Brothers watch closely, three thousand plus score match, Bullpup still slaughters chaotically! AK M4 are all trash!”
Of course map is still Sand City, mainly other maps Bullpup doesn’t perform well.
Li Fan quickly bought dual pistols.
“You guys say my Bullpup Economy doesn’t work at higher ranks, but fact is this is the best way to win matches, simple and brutal, no need to think nonsense, just spray, spray every round!”
“Think about it, you’ve worked all day, playing a game and still scheming—that’s too tiring, right? Tell me, doesn’t this make sense?”
This really got quite a few people thinking.
Yeah, work all day, come home to game to relax.
Then you’re still scheming—that doesn’t make your tired body even more exhausted?
Unreal’s Bullpup… if it works, mindless spraying then charging into crowds—what a better game experience?
So they started watching Li Fan’s performance this match.
Pistol round doesn’t count, dual pistols are strong in pistol round.
Li Fan started as CT this round, but played very aggressively.
Though he got killed in the end, he aggressively took two kills and injured one.
Teammates easily cleaned up the rest, successfully winning the first round.
“Successfully took it, now the situation’s different.”
Li Fan started commanding in voice chat.
“Brothers buy Bullpup buy Bullpup, extra money for armor and grenades, all full props with me.”
Teammates were stunned hearing this.
But two small streamers knew Li Fan’s popularity, since plenty had gone to their live stream rooms.
To leech popularity, one way is to get on good terms with big streamers.
So they directly agreed to Li Fan’s suggestion.
Without a word, they pulled out full armor Bullpup plus grenades.
The other two saw them doing it, no reason to object.
CSGO this game emphasizes cooperation a lot.
Especially higher ranks, can’t be a tumor.
If there’s one tumor in team and position lost, chain reaction easily loses the match.
So early contact with command usually no opposition votes, unless the command is totally unreasonable…
“Brothers to A long, directly five grenades, everyone follow my command, throw after five-second countdown.”
“Five… four… three… two… one!”
Five police already at A door!
“Fire in the hole!”
Five grenades directly all thrown into A door.
The terrorist who just passed through A door got startled, hurriedly ran back out.
But waiting for him were five Bullpups!
Instantly shot dead by Bullpup on the spot.
Subsequent teammates one by one bombed down by grenades…
In this brief encounter, three downed at A door.
Remaining two chased down, ended second round in just one minute.
“Awesome, awesome, this play seems kinda simple.”
“Bullpup charge, kinda interesting…”
【Huh? Is CS really just this simple a game? Just charge into crowds with Bullpup?】
【Something’s off… really off!】
【Easily took two points?】
Li Fan said to the audience in the live stream room again, “See, playing Bullpup is this simple and brutal. How I played before, even top matches like this, same process. Bullpup’s tactical system is self-contained, very formulaic playstyle. I absolutely won’t screw you over.”
“Don’t know why, but everyone resists this Bullpup gun so much. Actually following my routine, nothing else, ranking up to B+ is effortless, then learn more for breakthroughs, very simple.”
“This is Bullpup Economy researched to the ultimate. Follow me and you’re good.”
Although… that’s what Li Fan said.
But later when opponents prepared, it’s different.
Long-range gunfights, defects slowly show.
So what if more bullets? Opponent’s AK high damage kills you directly, extra bullets can’t even fire.
If there’s a benefit, no need to worry about… no money.
Anyway full armor Bullpup!
Audience watched with great interest…
Mainly Li Fan with this gun died outside many times.
They could do this operation too.
So in this way, everyone is about the same.
But this brainless gaming really relaxes a lot.
Gotta say, holding Bullpup actually led by one in first half.
8:7…
【He can actually play like this?】
【Don’t get fooled, damn Unreal such a strong player struggles with this gun? Swap to you and it’s free kills?】
But even so, second half teammates didn’t change tactics.
Mainly playing it is really fun.
After so many high-intensity matches, suddenly a brainless one feels pretty good.
“Hahaha, he’s still throwing flashbang grenade here, look I’m already Bullpup next to him!” Li Fan held left mouse spraying wildly.
Spraying from muzzle blood-splattered the CT!
Similarly, the audience in the live stream room now had a totally different mentality watching.
Previous high-intensity matches with two pros, tense throughout.
But now laughing all the way.
Fun!
Bullpup isn’t totally useless, at least the show effect is great.
Watching him charge with the gun feels interesting.
After all Bullpup loses at long range, against masters can’t fight at all.
Up close to perfectly play the armor penetration.
Now live stream room doctors more than last match, all hahaha.
Gifts received quite a bit more too.
But this match… still lost 13:16 in the end.
No way, defects too obvious.
Bullpup this gun at best mixes in B+ segment, can’t go higher.
And current B segment, in later years is solidly qualifying S.
But remember, even qualifying S is still S!
“Narrow loss! See we got thirteen points, ladder playable right? No problem? I said follow my economy, entertains and ranks up.”
【Hahaha, I just saw someone go all out to prove Bullpup works, but fact is still qualifying.】
【But playing like this is fun, if five-stack doing it should be pretty happy.】
After all, watching master show operations feels distant, master fumbling with off-meta weapon feels oddly relatable, plus Li Fan joking throughout, show effect maxed.
In front of Yu Luo’s computer, he just finished watching Li Fan’s full Bullpup Economy practical lesson.
As Unreal’s fan and already a mature UP main, Yu Luo had keen sense for live stream memes and highlights.
“Hold left mouse rush B… AK M4 total trash… you’re prepping props guess where my Bullpup is.” Yu Luo quickly replayed the recorded live clip, muttering, eyes brightening, “Got it!”
He first clipped Li Fan’s pre-match brainwashing words.
“When playing Bullpup just remember, don’t think about strafe stopping, no need at all, hold left mouse and rush B!”
“What AK M4 are all trash!”
Then added some of his adapted lines.
Precisely found those iconic screens from that match.
Five T-side players all Bullpup with full armor, lined up in Sand City background, oddly comical and imposing.
Spectacular sight of five grenades flying at A door, and terrorists fleeing in panic.
He picked a fast-paced electronic track with silly fun vibe as BGM.
Whole video just 35 seconds, but tight rhythm, dense laughs, perfectly condensed the live stream’s Bullpup essence.
Yu Luo watched the finished product satisfactorily, couldn’t help laughing first: “Yay! Perfect! Title…《【Unreal】: Day One Becoming Bull King》”
He skillfully added tags “Unreal”, “CSGO”, “Bullpup”, “meme remix”, “economy”, clicked upload.
After all now, anything with Unreal naturally gets massive traffic.
And the video fermented faster than Yu Luo expected.
Thought it’d take till next day, but unexpectedly blew up that same night!
In just hours, playback volume over three million.
Mainly most clips of Li Fan are highlight operations, no such meme remix videos, suddenly one really catches the eye!
【Hahahaha damn, perfectly summarizes Unreal’s essence this time!】
【On-site weirdo arrived, matches live stream exactly, UP main too talented.】
【Hold left mouse! Spray! Bible chant!】
【Added to my collection, next time squad up play it for teammates!》
【Fake Unreal: Dragon Snipe from the sky, intellectual suppression. Real Unreal: Bullpup charge, free kill pioneer!】
【I declare, Bullpup henceforth renamed “Unreal Happy Gun”!】
