[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 467

The situation became 1:1 as OLZ took the first set.

Naturally, the community's reaction couldn't help but explode again.

- Wowㅋㅋㅋㅋ

- OLZ is still alive

- They pulled out Kean and carried itㄷㄷ, the outlaws are truly legendary...

- They're taking this to a 3-game series

- Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut! Bug cut!

- SY fought well too, it's a shameㅠㅠ but Kean was really good

- Kyaㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

- Mmm, crazy, crazy

As expected, if there's support for the winning team, there's also mockery for the losing team.

Especially this time, SY's attempted ban-pick was a ban-pick with a very high risk, so that talk couldn't help but come out even more.

- Seriously, what's SY's ban-pick? Throwing the game?

- Seems like they're throwing the game

- I'd do better than that, even if I did it ㅇㅇ

- The coaching staff needs to be spanked

- Wow, the ban-pickㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ, you guys are bastards

- Seriously, what's with the ban-pick?

- How much do you have to disrespect your opponent to do that kind of ban-pick? It's really bad

As OLZ, who had been listlessly defeated in the first set, succeeded in a counterattack, the commentators also couldn't hide their excitement.

["A moment of crisis! Outlaw succeeds in saving the team from crisis with the pick of Kean!"]

["Who would have known that Kean would be pulled out in such an important moment? Truly amazing!"]

["In a way, did OLZ's strategy work out well? You could say they perfectly countered the opposing composition."]

["That's right! Although Kean is definitely a difficult pick to handle, if the situation is right, he's a champion who can be this active!"]

["Of course, even so, the fact that Kean could be pulled out in a losing situation is also a truly amazing thing for the Outlaw player."]

["Yes. Even for Outlaw, who would have thought he would pull out a pick like Kean in this situation? I really couldn't imagine it. Yes."]

The chatroom agreed with the commentators' opinions.

- Seriously ㅋㅋ

- Seriously, who would have known they'd pull out Kean there ㅋㅋ Ah ㅋㅋ

- Is Outlaw a god or is Outlaw a god? Is Outlaw a god or is Outlaw a god? Is Outlaw a god or is Outlaw a god? Is Outlaw a god or is Outlaw a god? Is Outlaw a god or is Outlaw a god? Is Outlaw a god or is Outlaw a god?

- 3 games are so much fun

- SY's ban-pick is too much

["The important thing is, how will the ban-pick be done... I guess they won't be able to pick something like Cassadim again?"]

["Yes. I think so."]

["Of course. Is OLZ a pushover team? From the next game, SY will also have to keep their wits about them!"]

The commentators also slightly criticized SY's ban-pick.

That much meant SY's ban-pick was a high-risk ban-pick, and it was natural that feedback would arise if it failed.

["Today's game is really fun! Both teams are showing the best performance right now!"]

["Yes. It seemed like OLZ was going to lose somewhat lamely in the first set, but who would have known they would get revenge so wonderfully in the second set?"]

["It's not for nothing that they're a strong team."]

["That's right. Even though OLZ is a new team, no matter what anyone says, they deserve to be called a strong team."]

["Who would have imagined that a team that just got promoted would do that much?"]

- Seriously ㅋㅋ

- If it's OLZ, aren't they just beyond a strong team?;;

- They do win a lot for a strong team ㅇㅇ

- They're on a different level from other teams claiming to be strong teams ㄹㅇㅋㅋ

["Then, who will be the winner of the third set... Ah! Now the ban-pick is starting!"]

["Let's take a look at the ban-pick!"]

Finally, the third set ban-pick began in earnest.

***

After the second set ended.

We gathered to provide feedback.

"You all did well."

As always, Baek Seong-an praised the team members with a bright face.

Everything went as our team intended in the second set.

From the ban-pick to the in-game play.

Thanks to that, we got a chance to give SY a blow, and finally made it to the third set.

"Are they going to pick Cassadim? Then they'll get it."

Kim Jae-min said cheerfully.

"It's not like you're going to be on the same lane."

"Hey, it's so great if you're on the same lane as Cassadim. Cassadim is a champ that makes other lanes difficult."

"That's true."

For some reason, Baek Seong-an agreed with Kim Jae-min's words and nodded.

"Yujin, it's the third set now, do you have any ban-picks in mind?"

"I do, but..."

In the second set, we did well thanks to utilizing the strengths of the red team and responding well to the opponent's intentions, but originally, a ban-pick doesn't always go as I thought it would.

No, it was more likely to go completely differently than I thought.

Because the basics of the ban-pick were to ban the picks you don't want the opponent to have and take away the good champions.

"What is it? Tell me."

"...Um, I think it'll be better to talk about it while doing the ban-pick, because I think we'll have to look at the opponent's picks. I can't really express what's in my head in words..."

"Really? Okay."

After roughly discussing the upcoming third set ban-pick, we went back to our seats.

"Everyone, fighting!"

"Let's do well."

The third set ban-pick began in earnest.

Our team's side is blue.

SY's side is red.

In other words, we're the first pick.

+

[Ban List]

Aurelion Sol / Viego

Corki / Ryze

Tristana / Wukong

+

The bans showed a very blatant structure from both teams.

In many ways, the game's ban-pick between our team and SY couldn't help but be different from the usual pattern.

That's because the sharpest weapons that both teams have were decided.

'Of course, SY has very strong other weapons too.'

It was our turn for the first pick.

["Yujin, what do you think would be good for the first pick?"]

"I think it would be good to just get Orianna. Is that okay?"

["Yeah, okay. I'll do Orianna."]

Our first pick was decided.

[Orianna]

And the opponent's first and second picks.

[Ashe]

[Rumble]

The opponent picked Ashe and Rumble, taking picks that can be considered to be of a high tier in the current meta.

Especially in the case of Ashe, she sometimes doesn't receive good reviews, but in important games, she's a pick whose tier rises exponentially due to her unique vision play and ultimate skill first attack rights.

SY's choice now is also related to that.

It was our turn for the second and third picks again.

["Yujin, are you going to go down? If you go down more, I think more jungle bans will come out. I think you should choose this time."]

"I'll think about it for a moment. Do you have something to pick for the second pick?"

["Um, let's pick an ADC. How about Jhin? It seems like the lane will be difficult against Ashe."]

["Why is a man doing Jhin? Of course, if you're a man, it's Draven─"]

["Jhin, Yujin."]

As expected, I didn't intend to seriously listen to Kim Jae-min's words regarding the ban-pick.

[Jhin]

Kim Jae-min grumbled.

["...Why are you always asking, when you're always going to be like this?"]

["That's why I didn't ask you."]

["Our team is getting treated like a prince way too badly."]

["I guess you're not a prince. Aren't you an untouchable commoner?"]

["That's right."]

Baek Seong-an and Seo Yeon-woo chuckled.

["...I'm not doing it."]

["It's a joke, man. Just concentrate."]

["I have to take the cannon from mid."]

["Oh, go ahead."]

Now it was our turn for the third pick.

Considering the opponent's ban base, it would be better for us in many ways to go for the jungle.

"I'll do Khazix."

["Khazix? Um... it doesn't look bad. Then, I'll do Khazix."]

"Yes."

Even though it's only the first and second picks, if we look at the opponent's picks so far, it doesn't seem bad to capture it with Khazix.

Besides, since the ban-pick structure itself was going in one of the directions I thought, Khazix was definitely needed now.

[Khazix]

It was the opponent's third pick turn.

The opponent seemed to be hesitating a bit, dragging out the time, and then, as if they had finished thinking, the pick was decided.

[Yone]

Rainbow's Yone came out.

["Um..."

Baek Seong-an's voice became somewhat serious, but there was a limit to the picks that could be blocked by bans.

And so the fourth and fifth bans also passed, and it was the opponent's fourth pick turn.

[Varus]

I thought a jungler would come out, but it seemed the opponent was planning to give the red 5th pick to the jungle.

That meant they had no intention of being pushed in the mid-jungle matchup.

Now it was our turn for the fourth and fifth picks.

["What are you going to do for top? It's Rumble."]

["K'Sante seems to be better at that. Because it's hard no matter what..."]

["Then let's do K'Sante."]

[K'Sante]

And finally, the time has come to put out a support for the fifth pick.

Finally, the time has come.

"Jihoon."

["Yes."]

"The thing you prepared, can you do it?"

Protein, Kim Ji-hoon.

You could say that Kim Ji-hoon is the only player I brought in based solely on skill when I created the team.

In the case of Seo Yeon-woo or Baek Seong-an, we came together due to some connections, but Kim Ji-hoon is a player I actively recruited because I wanted to be with him based solely on his skills.

That much meant I trusted Kim Ji-hoon, and because of that, I think the opportunity has come to show the power of a player named Protein this time.

["Pyke. I will do it."]

Kim Ji-hoon's pick was chosen.

[Pyke]

It's time to show that OLZ's weapon is not just the jungle.

And...

Finally, the ban-pick was completed.

[OLZ / SY]

Top: K'Sante / Rumble

Jungle: Khazix / Sejuani

Mid: Orianna / Yone

ADC: Jhin / Ashe

Support: Pyke / Varus
