[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 120
Stream Sniping (2)[Please Explain]
White text on a black background.
It was a simple technique, but one used on YouTube to deliver a strong message.
[One day, viewers pestered Jjoosim]
[All sorts of incomprehensible circumstances]
[Outlaw's unrealistic win rate]
[Outlaw's scrim win rate is one hundred percent?]
.
.
.
[Why did YSG's supernova, Outlaw, leave the team?]
[Testimonial videos from actual players]
[Video of Outlaw being vague about this]
[An explanation was given, but it wasn't an explanation]
.
.
.
[The number of star balloons far exceeds the average for rookie BJs]
[Who is behind the abnormal growth of the broadcast...?]
[Suspicious sponsorship of 300,000 star balloons. Is China behind her?]
The compiled data clearly stated.
Outlaw is suspected of abusing, and her abnormal solo rank win rate seems to be due to that.
Also, the reason why she left the team in the middle of the season, even though she was virtually guaranteed a starting position, is also thought to be because she ran away for fear of her abusing being exposed.
Finally, there is a reasonable suspicion that a Chinese company is behind Outlaw's actions.
In fact, as evidence of this, Outlaw's broadcast has been very successful and is generating enormous profits.
The key to cyber wrecking is to add a personal opinion without drawing a conclusion.
Just like now.
["......Therefore, we demand an explanation for these allegations."]
Allegations that don't make sense and feel awkward if you think about them.
But it didn't matter.
After all, viewers were the kind of people who only saw what they wanted to see.
["That's all."]
Soon, this video spread like wildfire.
As the viewers wished.
*
Goebbels said.
Propaganda is possible with a single line, but refuting it requires dozens of documents and evidence, and by the time you try to refute it, people have already been propagandized.
Of course, there is no evidence that Goebbels actually said this, but, ironically, that very fact proves what this sentence says.
Propaganda, contradiction, paradox, irony.
After all, the truth is not that important.
What the public and viewers need is gossip to chew on for a long time, and if that's Outlaw, who's at the top of her game these days, that's even better.
[Current number of viewers: 24,112]
A big topic after a long time.
As if to support that fact, Jjoosim smiled contentedly as he looked at the number of viewers filling up his channel after a long time.
Although Outlaw's broadcast viewership was also increasing tremendously in proportion to that, the speed was relatively slow thanks to the managers' quick banning.
Soon, the difference in viewership between Outlaw and Jjoosim was narrowing at an alarming rate.
-What's that YouTube video?
-Is it real?
-What's with the sniping, crazy
-Am I the only one who thinks something's fishy? I think Jjoosim is pulling this stunt because his viewership has been falling lately
-lol Simp detected
-Cut off the simp!
-Cut off the simp
"Okay, everyone, calm down. The reason I uploaded that video is... Is it a snipe? No, it's not a snipe, it's a summary of the parts that you guys have raised suspicions about. I'm not that unethical."
-Yeah, next wrecker
-If that's not a snipe, then what is it?
-What a coward trying to weasel out of it in the midst of all this
-Rather, take it head-on like a real man
Am I crazy? I'll be the only one to take the blame if something goes wrong.
Of course, I would never say that out loud.
"As I said before, the video I uploaded is not a snipe or anything like that. Isn't what you guys want the truth? I feel the same way. Outlaw just needs to tell the truth. Don't be vague like you've been doing."
-Kya
-I agree I agree
-My chest is clear!
-That's it
-Jjootaesik is back
"Okay... then, let's start by organizing the allegations that have come out......"
Vitality slowly began to return to Jjoosim's broadcast, which had been sluggish recently.
The only difference from before was that the vitality was created by sucking the blood of others, which was the only problem.
"Okay, let's take a look."
Jjoosim began to release the materials he had prepared in advance one by one.
* * *
It was clearly just another day.
Always the same solo rank.
Always looking for the same teammates.
Always the same back-and-forth with the same viewers.
If I just broadcast like this, I felt like I could reach Challenger Rank 1 within the promised month, end the no-off-air stream, and create my own team.
Everything seemed to be going well.
Until today.
[Please Explain]
The link that the cuckoo, no, the viewer, gave me contained a shocking and malicious edited video.
The gist of it was that I was abusing in solo rank.
-That's such bullshit
-Jjoosim's viewership has been plummeting lately, so he seems to have nothing to lose?
-Does that even make sense? lol Don't worry about it, leader
-Yeah, who would believe that?
-That's what cyber wreckers do lol Sigh...
The viewers in my room before shook their heads at the content, but the viewers who were newly attracted by the topic were different.
[Current number of viewers: 54,154]

It wasn't a situation where I could be happy that the number of viewers had increased.
Those viewers weren't here to watch my broadcast, they were here to see me on the stand.
Soon, no matter how many viewers were blacklisted, it was meaningless.
That many viewers wanted an explanation.
"......"
When I decided to start broadcasting, I thought that this day would come someday.
For internet broadcasters, controversy is like the front and back of a piece of paper, and if you decide to broadcast, it's a fact that you can't avoid it.
But.......
'It wasn't supposed to be like this.'
I know myself that the last explanation was somewhat lacking.
But... this is something.......
'I can feel the malice.'
I had felt this malice before.
Jungler Choi Woo-jin, aka Diehard, who was in danger of losing his starting position to me at YSG.
It was similar to what I felt from him.
'This is annoying.'
In the past, I would have been at a loss and worried alone about such malice, but after broadcasting for a few days, my mental state has gotten stronger, and I feel more anger than worry.
'Jjoosim, you son of a bitch.'
Should I just sue him?
Should I bring a group of lawyers, including Kim, Choi, and Park?
Or should I get the whole law firm?
'Or should I tell Mom?'
I might be called a mama's boy, no, a mama's girl, but she'll take care of it for sure.
After all, my mother's overprotection was still lingering somewhere.
"Ha."
I couldn't help but laugh when I imagined my mother getting angry and running around.
I know it.
How futile and meaningless this thought is.
Of course, I could sue Jjoosim by bringing in a lawyer.
But what's left for me?
I've already seen what kind of results an extreme response can bring.
The result of leaving the team because I hated the team.
That result was right in front of me.
'Extreme methods only lead to extreme results.'
In this situation, that extreme method means suing Jjoosim here.
The worst of the worst options.
I had no intention of repeating such a foolish thing anymore.
'What should I do......'
Even as I was worrying, the chat window kept going up.

Even if I wanted to ignore it, it wasn't a situation where I could do a normal broadcast.
In other words, in order to do a normal broadcast, I had to respond to this controversy in some way.
'Suing is the worst of the worst options. Then what's left......'
There's a saying, "broadcasting is broadcasting."
It doesn't have any particularly special meaning, it's just a term that means "watch the broadcast as a broadcast."
The reason I'm telling you this is simple.
This is RedTV.
It's a broadcasting platform.
What happens on a broadcast is best resolved on a broadcast.
'I can't forgive Jjoosim for sniping me... but I guess I have no choice.'
I'm the victim, but I also knew why Jjoosim took such an extreme measure.
I've been watching how the RedTV landscape has been changing lately.
'He must think I stole his viewers.'
RedTV is a platform with a thorough winner-take-all structure.
On such a platform, if a broadcast that is maintaining the number one spot in the category is doing a no-off-air stream, it was natural for other BJs to feel a decrease in viewership.
This was a phenomenon that occurred because the floating viewers, who should have been scattered here and there, were tied to one place.
Of course, strictly speaking, it could be seen as natural to lose viewers because they were pushed out of the competition, but it was obvious that those involved wouldn't feel that way.
'This kind of thing will continue to happen not only on broadcasts, but also in other areas. I need to get used to it from now on.'
Soon, I won't choose the same method as before.
I pressed on my smartphone.
It was to send a message to YSG's coach Park Tae-hyung.
[Coach Park Tae-hyung]
[I'm sorry to bother you, but could you do a collaboration broadcast with me sometime later when you have time?]
It was a truly shameless request, but it was a necessary measure to overcome my current situation.
'That's done, so what's next......'
I can't just wait for Park Tae-hyung's call in a situation where I don't know if Park Tae-hyung will accept the collaboration offer or not.
I immediately turned on RedTV to move on to the next step.
[Category] [Legend of League]
1. Outlaw111 [54,644 people]
2. BJ Jjoosim [28,411 people]
3. GangGangGangGangGang [1,354 people]
4. CarryWell [441 people]
5. ADCGodKimADC [381 people]
The difference in viewership between the remaining BJs, excluding the current 1st and 2nd place, seemed to tell the story of what was happening in the Legend of League scene on RedTV.
I'm reluctant to say it myself, but Outlaw's existence was a dinosaur that suddenly appeared in the Legend of League scene on RedTV.
Even a large BJ like Jjoosim can't handle it, so there's no way that small BJs can handle it.
'...That's why they have to snipe me.'
I knew it roughly, but it felt strange to see it with my own eyes.
"Hoo."
After taking a brief deep breath, I immediately accessed Jjoosim's broadcast.
The viewers were agitated by my sudden action.
-Oh
-Are they going to fight?
-ㄷㄱㄷㄱ
-Outlaw finally moves ㄷㄷㄷ
-Hard
-Kill that bastard, sis! Kill that bastard, sis! Kill that bastard, sis! Kill that bastard, sis! Kill that bastard, sis! Kill that bastard, sis!
-Plain
-ㄷㄱㄷㄱㄷㄱㄷㄱㄸㄱ
-Something big is coming
-Hard
-Plain
In the end, the controversy is mostly about whether my skills are real or not.
Then prove it.
In front of everyone, that my skills are completely real.
'And, make sure that not only my broadcast, but also other broadcasts don't die.'
Win-win and coexistence.
That was the method I chose.
["Uh... Outlaw-nim is here?"]
『'Outlaw111' has gifted '10' star balloons.』
『"If you doubt my skills that much, why don't we have a 5:5?"』
I said to Jjoosim.
Hey, wanna fight?
