[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 140
No Off-Air (11)“……I’ll cover the map.”
The reason I hadn’t bothered to cover the minimap until now was that I knew well how frustrating it was from the viewers’ perspective.
Furthermore, given the nature of jungle streams, where you inevitably have to reveal your movement paths throughout the game, covering the map or not rarely had a big impact on the game anyway, which is why I hadn’t bothered to cover it until now… but the situation is a little different now.
‘Even if the impact is small, it’s better to cover it than not.’
The opponent’s goal is victory.
And it’s a victory that stops at no means or methods. Naturally, it’s right to respond to some extent on this side as well.
-ㅇㅇ Probably better to cover it.
-It’s not confirmed stream sniping yet... but ok for now.
-Cover it
-Let’s cover it
-This is understandable.
-Stream sniping is inevitable.
-Good
Perhaps because they had clearly witnessed me being trolled in the previous game, the viewers’ reactions were also accepting, as if there was nothing they could do.
‘Then…….’
I analyze the current situation.
I prepare an appropriate countermeasure.
Soon, the answer descends.
‘Red TV’s stream delay is around 7 seconds.’
While Blue TV allows you to set a separate stream delay, there was no way Red TV would have such a luxurious feature.
‘This can be exploited.’
If the opponent is moving based on watching my stream, I just need to use that delay to screw with them in return.
“Starting Red. Please get lane priority.”
The opponent already knows where my jungle starting point is.
In this situation, starting with Blue, a buff that isn’t very helpful in early combat, is not a good choice.
[“Ah, yes.”]
Sosimhan Saram 190 also headed straight to the lane as if understanding.
The reason bot lane in high tiers doesn’t leash much early on is because early bot lane priority is that important.
Our bot lane still tried to help me leash to give power to the jungle, but now was not the time for that.
‘This is already a fight where we’re losing significantly in the movement path battle.’
In other words, the jungle vs. jungle fight is already starting with about half of it conceded.
At such times, what’s important is each lane’s priority.
If our team holds lane priority, no matter how well the opponent knows my movement path, they won’t dare to counter-jungle recklessly.
So, a smooth Red 3-camp clear.
‘Shall I start playing some tricks now.’

How many times did I ping mid?
The opponent’s mid lane Lisandra visibly flinched a few times.
However, I hadn’t even ganked mid, let alone, I had already headed towards the Blue side camps long ago.
The stream delay is 7 seconds.
This means that every time I make motions as if I’m heading slightly towards mid, the opponent’s mid laner is naturally bound to feel pressured.
Only then did the opponent’s Lisym finally show up late in mid.
They had tried to rush a counter-gank, thinking I was going for a mid gank, but in fact, it was a waste of movement path caused by me having gone jungling to the opposite side camps.
‘Headache, isn’t it?’
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋLisym
-Wow, they feint like this?
-Outlaw Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw!
-Lisym confused ㅋㅋㅋ
-Got confused while stream sniping ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
The advantage gained from this was not just that.
-An enemy has been slain!
Good news from bot lane.
Originally, the Ezreal Yuumi duo itself wasn't that strong in 2v2 fights, but a kill opportunity arose thanks to aggressively trading damage based on the early priority they secured.
-Oh
-They got a kill with Ezreal Yuumi
-Kya
-King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot! King Bot!
-This is a game ㅋㅋㅋ
-Ah ㅋㅋ why doesn't our bot lane play like that
-Sosimhan Saram is awesome ㅋㅋ Can you get a kill with that composition?
-Plus, Trainer is a jungler
-Who is Trainer?
-Top Lane Education Master is MYE Trainer ㅇㅇ
-Ah thanks
This is what stream sniping is originally like.
You can certainly gain an advantage in relative information, but if you pay too much attention to the opponent's stream, it can conversely prevent you from playing your own game.
Lisym and Lisandra were like that now.
They kept worrying about what I was doing and ended up tripping over themselves.
‘You tried to win with just this much…….’
Too arrogant, way too arrogant.
Stream delay of 7 seconds.
And Talun’s incredible mobility.
When those two things are combined, even under the absolute disadvantage of stream sniping, you can create opportunities.
Just like now.
‘Where… shall I give it a try?’
I said.
“Keep pressuring bot lane.”
[“Copy.”]
The bot lane priority created by our bot lane.
Based on that, I openly headed towards the Dragon pit.
-Huh?
-Are they actually doing Dragon?
-Isn’t the opponent stream sniping?
-Seems a bit risky...
The moment viewers expressed concern.
I went straight into the opponent's Red side jungle and met the rushing Lisym.
The opponent Lisym, who was watching the past from 7 seconds ago, must have thought I was doing Dragon and tried to rush to join, but what I was aiming for wasn't something like Dragon.
‘Peek-a-boo.’
What I was aiming for was Lisym from the beginning.
-An enemy has been slain!
If Lisym hadn't been stream sniping and had been focusing, they might have been able to react somewhat the moment I showed myself.
But Lisym's attention was already divided, and that split second of carelessness prevented them from creating time to withstand Talun's burst damage.
-Wow
-What the ㅋㅋㅋ
-What just happened?
-Weren't they trying to do Dragon?
-How did they know Lisym was coming?
-Ah ㅋㅋ so the host was the one stream sniping ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-What's that damage?
-They popped that?
-The combo was so clean ㅋㅋㅋ
-Truly insane...
-How far did they read?
-Real education for the targeted stream sniper ㅋㅋㅋ
And a low voice was heard.
[“Nice.”]
“…Yes?”
[“Nice, I said.”]
“Ah, yes… thanks.”
It was a somewhat awkward conversation.
-But who has the host been talking to since earlier?
-Isn't it Sosimhan Saram 190? Saw you covered the queue earlier, looks like you're duoing.
-Ah, really?
-Weren't you talking to us...?
-I also thought you were talking to yourself since it's a stream ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Ah ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Was I the only one fooled? Was I the only one fooled? Was I the only one fooled? Was I the only one fooled? Was I the only one fooled? Was I the only one fooled? Was I the only one fooled?
-Nunna look at me too... Nunna look at me too... Nunna look at me too... Nunna look at me too... Nunna look at me too... Nunna look at me too... Nunna look at me too...
And…….
No matter how much stream sniping they’re doing, they can’t stop a game that has already started rolling.
[“We pushed bot lane. We’ll join Herald right away.”]
“Copy.”
The timing had now flowed to the first Herald fight timing.
The opponent also tried to rush and prepare to counter this, but our side already had one more person.
But did the opponent gain an advantage in terms of personnel distribution? No, that wasn't the case either.
While our team pushed in the bot lane and only had one support join the Herald fight, the opponent, as if trying to reverse the bad situation, had both bot laners leave the bot lane.
Even though our team’s bot lane had one person and the opponent’s bot lane had two people moving, the reason our team gained priority in the Herald fight was purely the difference in join speed.
The speed difference coming from bot lane priority. That was precisely what determined the direction of this Herald fight.
-An ally has slain the Rift Herald!
‘If we retreat late, both enemy bot laners will join. We need to back out right away.’
Ezreal is already gaining a large advantage in bot lane.
On top of that, we also got the Herald, so there was no need to force a teamfight.
However, the opponent knows this too.
Perhaps knowing that they couldn’t turn this game around if they let us go like this, the opponent Lisym and Lisandra relentlessly chased our team.
Naturally, such reckless chasing tends to expose a lot.
‘Crossing the line.’
Often, people mistakenly think their team is at an advantage if the opponent is retreating.
Of course, that’s usually true. After all, if the opponent had an advantage, there’d be no reason to retreat.
But not now.
The reason we were retreating now was purely because we didn't want to add unnecessary variables to an already advantageous game.
If the opponent wants to fight so openly, there’s no reason to avoid it.
-An enemy has been slain!
-Is on a killing spree!
The opponent Lisym completely popped without even a single decent attempt at aggro kiting.
Lisandra was saved from immediately popping thanks to her ultimate, but it was no different from having a death sentence delivered.
‘You should have just let us go then.’
-An enemy has been slain!
-Double Kill!
-Is unstoppable!
The opponent’s bot and top belatedly joined, but because two people were already cut down first, the number of personnel once again became advantageous for our team.
They couldn't even dare to fight.
-Kya ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Two stream sniping bugs cut down ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Why did they grab onto that? Do they want to die?
-But I guess if they didn’t do anything, they would have just lost the game anyway ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Winning like this
-Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying! Nunna I'm dying!
-There are bugs who get bodied even if they stream snipe? There are bugs who get bodied even if they stream snipe? There are bugs who get bodied even if they stream snipe? There are bugs who get bodied even if they stream snipe?
-ㄹㅇ ㅋㅋ total bugs
