[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 67

There's no way

Even for a massive dam, a crack smaller than a fingertip is enough to bring it down.

Even if it's just a tiny crack at first, it gradually grows and can eventually engulf the entire dam.

But no one notices the tiny crack that appears at the beginning.

Realizing a crack in the dam comes after the situation has become a bit more serious, that is, when the dam begins to show signs of trouble.

So…….

If SY's five members had pushed our team hard from the start, winning this game would have been impossible.

Even if the opposing team isn't in their main position, the same is true for our team, and above all, the tiers of the other team members, excluding Nightmare and myself, were only Diamond at best.

In that situation, fortunately, the opponent isn't giving their all right now.

No, it goes beyond not giving their all; it even seems like they're just enjoying the game.

It's not just because this is a normal game.

The fact that Jarvan used Smite on the cannon a while ago was a sign of that.

‘I have to take advantage of this opportunity.’

Of course, from a cold perspective, the current situation wasn't very good.

The opponent is the complete SY.

The world's best team.

On the other hand, the tier of our allies is, at most, Diamond level, excluding Nightmare.

To put it in perspective, it's like the difference between a middle school soccer team and a national soccer team.

The only slight difference is that there are two former player coaches from the middle school soccer team who are also playing.

-Our ally has been killed!

Anyway, as if to prove the overwhelming difference, top and bottom lanes lost solo kills soon after the game started, and the damage from that is not trivial.

In comparison, the crack I made in the mid lane at first is still extremely weak.

Moreover, the extreme matchup between Raze and Yasuo couldn't be overturned with a mere 1 kill, making it even more so.

However,

The important thing is that a crack has already formed.

The size of the crack doesn't matter.

The fact that it has clearly appeared is what's important.

‘First, I'll catch the opposing jungler.’

I moved with Rissim towards the opponent's red side using Raze's ultimate.

As expected, Jarvan, who was innocently jungling, couldn't hide his surprise when he saw me and Rissim.

‘The spear has been used.’

And then it was too easy.

The spear is a powerful attacking skill and, at the same time, a survival skill for Jarvan.

With such a skill clearly used, even if it were a guinea pig, it wouldn't be easy to escape this place.

‘Not going to use Flash?’

Jarvan was eventually forced to use Flash as his HP dropped rapidly from the combined attack of me and Rissim.

-Flash!

Of course, I had no intention of letting Jarvan go here.

Because the opposing Yasuo didn't seem to be backing up at all.

‘Not a bad judgment.’

A short chase ensues.

‘The spear's cooldown is almost over.’

Jarvan's spear is one of the movement skills with what's known as an overpowered judgment.

Flag and spear.

Since neither skill has a movement judgment in itself, Jarvan's spear is activated in most cases, unless it's some special CC like knockback or charm.

Naturally, as Raze with binding CC, it's not easy to stop Jarvan's spear.

‘If that's the case.’

I'll just kill him before that happens.

‘He's going to jump the wall with the spear, right? It won't be easy.’

I immediately rubbed my body against Jarvan and kept hitting him.

‘Annoying, isn't it?’

League of Legends is more tolerant than other AOS games in terms of body rubbing.

So, it's rare for an unfortunate incident of getting stuck between the map and minions to occur, but it can disrupt movement for a very short time.

Just like right now.

-Shhh!

Jarvan's flag, which barely reached the wall, was planted over the wall, and the spear pierced at the same time.

However, by the time Jarvan reached the other side of the wall, he was already a corpse.

Because the following EQ combo dealt a powerful smash to Jarvan's back.

-You have slain an enemy!

‘Nice.’

I looked at the mid lane.

Fortunately, since I had pushed the mid lane beforehand, the line loss wasn't too great.

I turned to go back to mid lane immediately, but there was no sign of Yasuo retreating.

No, he was even going into the turret shield.

‘Hmm.’

He wants the turret shield?

Of course, Yasuo's actions weren't entirely groundless.

The moment I and Rissim were about to attack Yasuo.

[⨷] [⨷]

[IlIIIIIllIlIll(Rissim) has targeted SY Rainbow(Sylas)]

Sylas from Rainbow, who had gained a lot of room to breathe because he had a firm grip on the bottom lane's laning dominance, appeared.

A 2:2 situation.

Although the opposing Sylas was a support in terms of position, he was practically a laner, except for the fact that his level was a bit lower, since he had gone home after getting 2 kills.

‘If Sylas' chain hits, the situation becomes extremely unfavorable.’

It was because it went beyond simply being caught in a CC and Sylas' E skill and Yasuo's ultimate were linked.

The meaning of Yasuo's ultimate isn't just responding to the allied airborne.

Without a minion wave, it allows Yasuo, who is nothing more than a simple walker, to quickly approach the opponent and gain an additional 50% armor ignore effect.

Adding to that, the consumed passive is also recharged, so it's not surprising that countless Yasuo mad movies are produced.

‘If he targets Rissim, there's no guarantee that Rissim will dodge the skill.’

No matter how well he's been doing beyond expectations so far, Diamond is Diamond.

You can't demand such delicate combat physicality.

So, I deliberately stepped forward as bait.

Logically speaking, it was obvious what the opponent would target between Rissim, who has a more agile body, and Raze, who is a simple walker champion.

‘Come on, use it.’

From here, it was a pure physical battle.

Whether the skill shot hits or not.

In that battle, Rainbow's Sylas rushed towards me aggressively.

‘Rainbow will use Flash with a one-beat delay.’

As predicted, Rainbow closed the distance with me in an instant with Flash and tried to use the EWE combo.

However, if there was something Rainbow didn't expect, it was that I had read Rainbow.

‘Move to the left here.’

As the chain missed at close range, the confusion was felt in Rainbow's movement.

It was a skill shot filled with such strong conviction.

Naturally, Yasuo, who was trying to join the battle through his ultimate, had to join the battle one beat late.

Soon, all that was left for Sylas, who had already used up his W and E skills, was a miserable gang fight.

-You have slain an enemy!

-Double kill!

We killed Sylas and Yasuo in an instant.

Along with that, the bottom lane, which had become a 2:1 situation in reverse, froze the line as if to explode the sorrows of the past and harassed the opposing ADC, Yunki.

‘Nice.’

The crack that was made at the beginning is gradually widening.

We will make the enormous castle of SY, which no one has ever been able to bring down, into a sandcastle from now on.

* * *

Often, the top lane is referred to as a lonely and solitary lane.

And in that top lane, Lee Tzu-hsüan couldn't help but blankly space out for a moment.

Because he felt a strange sense of déjà vu in the battle that had taken place in mid lane a while ago.

‘What is it?’

Despite the position, the champion, everything being different from Prisoner, he somehow saw Prisoner in Raze's appearance.

That doubt also subsided for a moment.

-An enemy has been slain!

“Ah.”

He got a solo kill while momentarily distracted in mid.

The opponent is SY Longbow.

He is the man who is called the world's best ADC, along with Mobydick, the team's ace. The price for a careless moment was natural.

‘…I’m crazy.’

Prisoner is dead.

Or, he's in a state where he can no longer play the game.

There was also evidence to support that.

‘If he was in a state where he could play the game again, there would be no reason to disappear in the first place.’

It was a natural story.

The first 2000-point jungler in history.

This wasn't an achievement that could be underestimated just because Prisoner was an amateur who didn't make his professional debut.

All professionals have been amateurs.

In that sense, Prisoner was an amateur with the greatest potential to reach the top.

In that situation.

Lee Tzu-hsüan's reason for playing a normal game instead of a ranked game wasn't any special reason.

At first, he just pressed the wrong button,

The second time was half resignation,

And the last time, there was no particular reason.

‘Umm.’

The game continues.

Raze and Rissim, who have entered the opposing jungle, catch the opposing Jarvan.

In the mid-lane battle that followed, they achieved a great victory against Rainbow and The One.

It was all like a picture.

And, strangely familiar.

Where did I feel this sensation?

It was a game that was definitely losing, but I feel like I'm winning without knowing.

Moreover, the opponent is SY, who won the championship after defeating GRS in the previous Red Cup.

“…….”

Following Raze's performance, Lee Tzu-hsüan felt a question that he had in his heart begin to seep out.

It can't be,

It shouldn't be,

In the end, Lee Tzu-hsüan had no choice but to utter the words that had risen to his throat.

“……Prisoner?”
