Jiang Ye tried out for a spot on VG's pro team, but was kicked off the roster. Then he awakened the [CS Glory System]...
By chance, Jiang Ye returned to university and joined a campus tryout, unexpectedly finding himself playing competitively.
Jiang Ye: “You guys ask how I'm so good at CSGO? I buy a Bizon every round and hold down the trigger. Once is a fluke, twice is a pattern, and by the third or fourth time, you never look back.”
He racked up so many championship titles that he couldn't keep count, and won so many MVP awards that he was numb to them.
Blind 1v3 shots, an AWP dropping from the sky, the Angel of Flames...
The iconic moments were too many to count.
He became one of the world's best CS players, igniting a massive buzz back home in China as well.
Only then did the VG club, as if waking from a dream, feel deep regret.
Meanwhile, another major announcement made the news: CSGO would become an event at the Asian Games...
Fans: “Jiang Ye's drug test results are in. There wasn't a drop of urine in his performance-enhancing drugs!”
Jiang Ye: “Brothers, can I get an AWP?”
After overcoming countless hardships, Jiang Ye held the Major trophy and said in an interview:
“I'll show them that China's CS scene is full of talent too!”
