[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 265

The meeting went on for quite a while.

It was because there were so many changes.

"How are the other teams?"

"Well? They seem to be doing something similar to us."

"Really?"

As the meeting dragged on, similar topics came up, and the meeting itself began to stagnate.

Seeing is believing.

Seeing with your own eyes is better than asking a hundred times.

Therefore, to know the meta pick, the best way was to jump in and experience it yourself, no matter what.

"Alright, let's stop here for today and everyone do their individual practice."

"Yes."

Solo queue continued.

We won most of the time, but even so, it wasn't as if we weren't ever caught off guard by the new meta.

'Definitely, the new AP mythic items are good for tanks, but the damage is lacking.'

Even so, it was true that it was a very good item.

Originally, Viktor's sudden rise was also thanks to the Crown.

Viktor's existing counter champions were long-range AP mage champions who could crush Viktor in the lane and AD assassin champions with burst damage.

But with the emergence of the new item, the latter disappeared from Viktor's counter picks.

On top of that, with the appearance of the new rune, First Strike, Viktor's tier rose rapidly at once.

'What's important to me is the jungle... For now, Xin Zhao, who switched to Lethal Tempo, and K'Sante with First Strike can be said to have clearly benefited from the rune patch.'

However, in K'Sante's case, he was a difficult champion to utilize in tournaments even before, so the probability of being difficult to utilize in the future was high.

Given the tight schedule of the league, K'Sante could be used as a joker pick, but there was a fundamental limit to going beyond that.

'Well, it's another story if the stats themselves become OP depending on the future patch.'

Isn't that how balance usually works?

'For now, the jungler to watch is Xin Zhao, and the rest can be considered to be pretty much maintaining the status quo.'

Tossin is still good, and also, Torban is good.

It was truly fortunate that new jungle champions such as Viego, Diana, and Talun gave them some vitality.

I rummaged through the Legend of League-related communities to see if there was any information to be found.

For now, the information I got through the community wasn't much different from what I already knew.

Of course, there were some people who were paying attention to picks like the Shenji support, but they were only a small minority.

I was also a little doubtful whether that would actually be good.

'Ugh...'

As I was looking at various posts like this and that, I accidentally came across the interview we had done.

[OLZ Outlaw, Protein Interview.avi]

'…Ugh.'

To be honest, I didn't want to click on it, but I'm only human, so I couldn't help but think, "Should I watch it once?"

["Yes, and in the case of Protein, the previous interview became quite a hot topic. Are you aware of that?"]

["…I'm not really aware."]

["Really? It seems like your teammates would tell you about it."]

["…I guess it's because I work out every day."]

["Oh… I guess that's true. As I said before, you really work out hard. Ahaha!"]

.

.

.

["…Not really."]

["Ahaha! Are you still very awkward? So now, among the fans, they say that after seeing your performance in the first game, the real Setu has appeared in the Summoner's Rift!"]

["…Ah, yes."]

.

.

.

["Then, this is a bit of a side note... Many people are curious about Protein's workout routine. How much do you work out?"]

["…I think I work out almost all the time, except for when I sleep and practice."]

["Um… Then, are you saying you work out for at least three hours a day?"]

["I usually work out for more than five hours."]

["…Ahaha! Amazing as expected! I should work out too… You seem to be a role model in many ways! Right?!"]

A scene that was embarrassing just to watch.

The comments were also out of the ordinary.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-So cute

-Protein is really awesome, seriously, is that not a roider?

-Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid! Roid!

-Roiders, get out! Our brother is 100% natural

-Noona, I'm dead!!!! Really dead!!

-Heung....

-Noona, you're so pretty

-Wow, Protein is really cool. Honestly, as a man, I respect him.

-Noona, do you want to see me go crazy? What about that visual, seriously ㄷㄷㄷㄷ

-Protein hits 650 in the 3-lift and is also Challenger in tier and undefeated in the pro league... I...

-Shit lol, the life game's balance sucks?? I quit!!

-ㄴAre you really not going to play?

-ㄴI'm going to LoL instead of the life game bye bye

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Really fun to see another player's interview after a long time ㅋㅋ OLZ fighting!

Comments that were dizzying just to look at.

As I was watching the interview scene again, I suddenly had a thought.

'Isn't it about time the team started to take care of the players' health?'

Above all, it seemed like a waste that the exclusive gym for the entire team to use existed for Kim Jihoon alone.

Although Kim Jihoon managed it to some extent, the gym was basically incurring considerable maintenance costs due to the separate cleaning personnel.

'Ugh…'

Right, let's make them work out.

As with Baek Seong-an's case, working out is actually helpful in playing Legend of League in many ways.

'Especially stamina.'

There was also a research result that concentration increases when playing Legend of League after working out, and on top of that, stamina was essential for our team, which had to play multi-game matches in the future.

But if I just told them to do it, they obviously wouldn't do it.

Kim Jae-min and Baek Seong-an, excluding myself and Seo Yeon-woo, were already avoiding that place after experiencing the workout with Kim Jihoon.

'Then...'

Couldn't I create an environment where they have no choice but to do it?

'Hmm, okay. Let's do that.'

Soon, I came up with a method and immediately picked up my smartphone.

*

"Alright, I have some announcements for the beloved OLZ players."

"…What's with the 'beloved' and what's the announcement? Just say it."

Baek Seong-an grimaced, but I continued speaking regardless.

"This time, after Round 1 ends, Round 2 starts, right? In that sense, we're going to do a small content for our team."

"Why content all of a sudden?"

"Well, we're going to create a team YouTube and upload it… I'm thinking of doing it that way."

"It's fine… but why all of a sudden?"

I knew he'd say that.

This was the important part.

"…Actually, the team finances aren't doing well these days. It costs a lot of money to maintain the dorm and the gym, so it's not just a small amount of money going out…"

In reality, the team's finances were quite comfortable, but I needed to make a sob story here.

"…Really?"

Baek Seong-an usually takes care of the team's internal affairs, but finances and management were an exception.

That was the domain of me, or rather, Secretary Jang, who was connected to me, and my mother.

"What kind of content are you going to do?"

"Ah, I have something in mind."

"What is it?"

"Workout content."

"…What?"

"Yes?"

Baek Seong-an made a disgusted expression, and Kim Jae-min, who was eavesdropping from the side, also flinched.

"…Why workout all of a sudden?"

"Well, health is the trend these days, isn't it? Also, we can work out our team members while doing content, so wouldn't it have a positive effect on their performance? What do you think?"

"What about something else? There's also cooking or mukbang…"

"Didn't you hear me? I said the financial situation is difficult, so why are you thinking about spending more money?"

"…That's true."

As expected, there was no excuse like a money excuse.

"Yeon-woo, you have to go too."

"Ah… Yes, yes."

It was impossible for anyone to be left out of the content the whole team was doing.

Yes, that's right.

So, our team headed to the gym on the lower floor together.

"…You came to work out?"

Since we hadn't shown up at the gym as a group until now, Kim Jihoon, who was sweating, looked at us with a slightly surprised look.

"We're going to film some workout content. Of course, you have to do it too. Is that okay?"

"That doesn't matter, but…"

So, before the actual content shooting, the moment I was about to start the broadcast.

"What are you doing?"

"Yes?"

"You have to do it too."

I had to stop for a moment at Baek Seong-an's words, who was about to film with his smartphone.

"…Me, me too?"

"Isn't that obvious? Aren't you on our team? Are you going to abandon your team?"

"Uh…"

This wasn't in the plan.
