[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 126

A shocking defeat.

Admittedly, the atmosphere was quite good in the early stages.

They were clearly superior in terms of basic tiers, leading the lane phase, and even successfully executed a bot lane dive, utilizing the Kamal-Galio combination.

Above all, they went into the enemy jungle, sacrificing a large wave of minions, and even managed to kill the infamous Outlaw once.

They caught that Outlaw, who seemed like he would never die.

「“We’ve definitely won this game.”」

Everyone was so sure of it.

Of course, the opponent was Outlaw.

There was no room for carelessness, and in reality, there was almost none.

「“Everyone, stay calm.”」

But that was all there was to it.

As the game progressed into the mid-game, things strangely started to go awry.

They clearly seemed to have the advantage, but the enemy was taking all the Dragons, and although they did take the Herald, it wasn't utilized with much impact.

At that moment, Jjushim’s team was somewhat consumed by madness.

They had to catch Outlaw.

All they needed to do was catch Outlaw.

Outlaw…….

As if trying to avenge the massacre that had occurred in the previous game, they chased after Outlaw alone.

Chasing after Outlaw’s Kindred in a reckless manner, their formation crumbled before they knew it, and they suffered a devastating team fight loss, a loss they couldn't possibly recover from.

If they hadn't caught Outlaw in the beginning, and if they hadn't realized that they could kill Outlaw, would things have been different?

I don't know.

Because the water had already been spilled.

[Defeat]

Amidst the clearly displayed letters, Jjushim, in a state of despair, barely moved his lips.

“No, why can't we make the Kamal-Galio combo work? Isn't it that difficult to pick off opponents one by one with that?”

[“The opponent is Kindred. How on earth do you blow up Kindred all at once?”]

In reality, after level 6, Jjushim's team hadn’t caught Kindred even once.

Whenever they tried to engage, Kindred would use their ultimate at a godlike timing to buy time, call in allies during that time, and also use their ultimate right before they were about to be hit by CC.

It was a truly divine calculation.

“You can catch other champions besides Kindred, so what does it matter?”

[“Then give us the call.”]

“Isn’t Kamal supposed to do that? Kamal-Galio is just a launching pad for Kamal.”

[“Hyung, the viewers are asking you to unfreeze your chat window….”]

“Is the chat window the problem right now?”

Jjushim's voice rose, forgetting that he was even on stream.

Even if he unfroze the chat window now, what else could he receive but insults?

[“Hey, Jjushim. What did you do so well? Honestly, isn't this a jungle difference? There's a 3-level difference in the jungle.”]

[“Ouch... Ouch...!”]

[“…Honestly, I admit it.”]

The teammates, too, seemed to have had enough, and started speaking up without holding back any longer.

Legend of League is a game that can make a person's emotions go up and down.

They couldn't help but get riled up since they lost two games in a row.

Especially in situations like this, where the opponent's tier was lower than their own.

“No, how can a jungler close the level difference when the game is being lost! That doesn't make any sense.”

The voice, which had been trying to soften, gradually started to rise.

[“Isn't that the jungle difference?”]

[“Um, ahem.”]

[“Ah, viewers, please don't spam here, and go to Jjushim hyung's room. I'm really struggling.”]

[“Speaking of which, isn’t this game like this because you kept saying to catch Outlaw? Doesn't it make sense for the jungler not to take the dragon?”]

“No, isn't it too much to put all the blame on me? We said we'd all do it together when I suggested it. If you didn't think it was right, you should have put on the brakes.”

[“That’s not what I’m saying now. What I mean is, let's not play politics. That’s it. We still have the next game.”]

[“That's right. Hyung, you'll really get a three-game sweep if you do this.”]

[“And unfreeze the chat window. Your viewers are causing a ruckus in my room.”]

Although Jjushim's chat window was still frozen, it was obvious where the viewers' sentiments were headed.

Jjushim couldn't close his ears any longer, so he unfroze the chat window.

“……I'll unfreeze the chat window.”

The situation itself was one where even ten mouths couldn't say anything, so even Jjushim, the king of yap, couldn't open his mouth at this moment.

『“Hey, are you crying?”』

-Cry a little, you son of a bitch.

-R.E.A.L.L.Y, at least squeeze out some tears, you son of a bitch.

-Really, getting targeted and getting crushed... Is this a person?

Jjushim couldn't bear to look at the chat window any longer.

Even though Jjushim had been trained in the art of mental fortitude through years of streaming, it had been a while since he had lost a game in such a one-sided manner and was being insulted.

“……I'll go to the next game.”

The teammates were equally downcast.

Having already fought with the teammates, the unique time of reflection was also overlapping, so there was barely any discussion about the ban-pick.

[“Let’s hurry.”]

[“……Go go.”]

The mentality was already completely broken.

In the multi-game series, the reason so many experts are clamoring about the importance of the first game is not in vain.

After the shocking defeat of the first game, everything Jjushim's team had prepared collapsed one by one, and the result was right before their eyes.

[“……What should we do?”]

[“Do whatever.”]

What good would it do to win?

That was the thought that came to Jjushim and his teammates’ minds now.

-I just wish it would end quickly.

Although they didn't say it out loud, they thought so.

[Defeat]

The third game was truly miserable.

The first and second games were at least games, and some kind of picture was drawn, but the last one, they were completely helpless and just got crushed before even 20 minutes had passed, and the nexus fell.

In solo queue, there are quite a few games that end before 20 minutes, but that’s only a phenomenon that occurs because they gave up on the game.

In a proper team game, a game ending before 20 minutes meant a lot of things.

“…….”

No further conversation was exchanged.

[“Everyone, you worked hard.”]

[“You worked hard.”]

[“It’s over.”]

As if feeling refreshed, the teammates brushed it off and left the voice chat room one by one.

-Ding

-Dling

A game so miserable that even a fight disguised as feedback wasn't necessary.

That was the third game.

-Wow... Seriously, they're throwing the game

-Aigoo, you dingbat, is this why you wanted to play 5:5?

“No, the Diamond was the ADC, and the enemy jungler was a Match Challenger….”

-W.T.F.R.G.

-Nu-eh nu-eh, I see, I see

-So what, you dingbat? Is this something to brag about?

-Seriously, so ugly

-I just wish you'd die

-It's absurd when I think about how this kind of guy slandered Outlaw ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-What are you doing

-Turn it on quickly, you bastard

-Me

Jjushim reflexively turned on Outlaw's broadcast in response to the viewers’ continuous barrage.

Outlaw's broadcast was a blank, black screen.

Instead, he could infer the general atmosphere through the chat window.

-D.G.D.G.D.G.D.G.D.G

-The big one is coming

-K.G.W.D

-Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw!

-I’ll hold my breath until it comes. Huff

-Noona, I'll die waiting! Noona, I'll die waiting! Noona, I'll die waiting! Noona, I'll die waiting! Noona, I'll die waiting! Noona, I'll die waiting! Noona, I'll die waiting! Noona, I'll die waiting!

At that moment, a voice was heard from the black screen.

[“Ah, many people are curious about my YSG dropout story. Because of the situation, I can’t say it in detail myself… I'm also really frustrated.”]

What?

What is he trying to do now?

Jjushim felt an ominous feeling of unknown origin.

And that ominousness soon began to materialize and creep closer.

[“However, I can’t keep this sealed forever….”]

And with that, the screen that had been filled with black was beginning to light up on Outlaw's screen.

An intentional production.

A broadcast production that he had already experienced countless times.

[“So, I have invited them.”]

With the light, Outlaw appeared.

His appearance was always dazzling, but the problem was the unknown man next to him.

[“YSG coach, Coach Park Tae-hyeong.”]

-Wow

-Crazy ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Exterm

-This? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Rock

-Is the timing perfect?

-Exterm

-Rock

Jjushim instinctively felt it.

I’m screwed.
