[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 9

[5], [4], [3], [2], [1]…….

[Game Start!]

Contrary to expectations, the game started.

‘Why didn't they dodge this?’

The resentment subsided for a moment, and as the loading screen appeared, I immediately understood why the opposing team didn’t dodge.

MAX WooChan - Nya

yytvxxiaojin - RekSai

qq7785dd55 - Cassiopeia

IlIIIIlllllIIIIlll - Jinx

SY GuineaPig - Trhesh

───────────────

An unfamiliar mid-jungle duo.

After searching their match history, I saw an unbelievable win rate of 90%.

‘Judging by the fact that their win rates are similar, it seems they set up the duo from the very beginning.’

It seems like a pro gamer’s sub-account, and judging by the IDs, there's a high possibility they are from the Chinese pro scene.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’

The current score of the Prisoner account is 1613 points.

It was actually harder to find opponents who weren’t pros.

-Welcome to the Summoner's Rift!

The game started, and I examined the invade matchups between our team and the enemy team.

[Allies / Enemies]

Top: Lissin / Nya

Jungle: Kindred / RekSai

Mid: Orianna / Cassiopeia

ADC: Semyra / Jinx

Support: Nautilus / Trhesh

‘Not bad.’

The result would change depending on the grab of both sides’ supports, but still, I thought it was worth trying.

I pinged the bush on the bottom side.

[↓] [↓] [↓]

The opposing team would also know that their invade matchup was disadvantageous, so they would take a defensive stance.

And by defensive stance, I mean spreading out and checking vision.

As Nautilus rotated his lens and entered the bottom tri-bush, the enemy ward was revealed.

Our position was revealed for now.

But it doesn’t matter.

Saying we are advantageous in a fight also means the advantageous side can make unreasonable demands.

[↓] [↓] [↓]

Even though our position was revealed, I pinged once more.

‘One enemy ward is gone. It was the bottom side bush, so it's probably a support or ADC ward.’

Originally, I don’t really like these aggressive invades.

Level 1 fights often become a battle to the death, and I have always been weak in those kinds of fights.

But not anymore.

Unlike the past, when I would always back down even with advantageous matchups, now there’s no need for that.

Taking one more step into the bottom tri-bush, we went all the way into the bottom lane bush.

‘One more ward.’

With this, two enemy wards were removed.

We could say we had already gained enough advantage, but I didn’t stop.

[↓] [↓] [↓]

I speak through movement.

That red of yours is mine.

If you don't like it, come fight me.

Of course, if you make such an unreasonable demand, even a kind person won’t just stand by.

As we pushed further into the enemy red jungle, Trhesh’s Death Sentence flew out from the straight bush.

Shwaaack!

It would have been better if I had dodged it, but alas, the Death Sentence that suddenly flew out of the bush was quite fierce.

Ting!

Nautilus, who was standing in front, was hit by the Death Sentence.

As soon as Nautilus was hit by the Death Sentence, the enemy Trhesh confidently flew in.

They probably think we fell into the trap they set, but it's the opposite.

The time is now 1 minute and 20 seconds.

The time when a normal top laner should have already gone to lane.

But you see…….

Our Lissin hasn’t gone home yet.

Despite it being an invade predicated on the sacrifice of the top lane, ‘Slave of the Jungler,’ or rather, ‘LaLaLa’, joined the invade without hesitation.

When Nautilus was ambushed, Lissin appeared elegantly with his defensive ability.

With that, the opponent’s team showed a clear look of being flustered.

The team fight they thought was 4:4 was actually 4:5.

Shieeeing─

Did they feel it was a fight they couldn’t avoid?

The enemy top, who had just appeared in the top lane, used Teleport with the ward in the red bush.

Our top, who had joined the invade with the resolve to sacrifice Teleport, ended up gaining the advantage.

[!] [!] [!]

The retreat ping of the allied team is marked, noticing that the enemy top is joining.

Originally, we should have already taken enough advantage at the point the enemy top's Teleport was used, so we could have retreated.

The allied Lissin could use Teleport and head to the top lane, and the top lane would have created an insurmountable difference.

But is there any need to do that?

Whether it's 4:5 or 5:5.

The result that I win will not change at all.

[⊙] [⊙] [⊙]

As I pinged again, Nautilus, who understood this, instead moved forward.

This is the high-elo bracket.

Whether it's the wrong order or the right order, it’s right to follow it anyway.

Twoong!

Along with the heavy sound of the grab, Trhesh, who was closest to Nautilus, was pulled.

When Nautilus’s grab succeeded, Semyra connected with the airborne with her passive.

And the subsequent ganking.

-First Blood!

-You have slain an enemy!

Mark stacks increased with the assist that came in sweetly.

It was worth it to put the mark on beforehand.

The situation is now 4:5.

They didn't retreat, thinking our skills were quite lost, even though they lost their support.

-An ally has been slain!

Our Orianna was sacrificed in that combat.

Because she was a champion who was born as a walker, she died even after using Flash to escape.

Of course, the enemy was no different, as they had already fallen into our grasp due to their reckless pursuit.

-You have slain an enemy!

A fierce level 1 skirmish continued.

-An ally has been slain!

As the jungler who retreats here takes a huge loss, the enemy didn’t retreat either.

However…….

RekSai is a champion who can’t do anything except walk around at level 1.

Because of that, the combat, which should have originally been 5:5 from the start, turned out to be like 5:4, and that difference soon decided the outcome of the combat.

-You have slain an enemy!

The result was 3:2.

Looking at the kill count, it seems like we only gained a mere 1 kill, but in fact, it's practically the end of the game.

The allied Lissin returned home and immediately teleported back to the top lane to eat all the lane, while the enemy Nya had to walk to the top after dying and reviving.

Looking at the lane situation, in that state, Lissin would temporarily have a 2-level difference.

It was virtually the end of the top lane.

What was serious was the jungle as well.

Often, when you play RekSai, ganking after clearing the red 3 camps is very threatening.

But RekSai, whose early jungling was ruined in the invade phase, now has almost no options left.

From now on, this can be seen as the area where I'm quite good.

I read the opponent’s psychology.

I read the opponent's emotions.

‘They must be very angry.’

Pros are also human.

No, because they are pros, they instinctively try to compensate for the loss if they suffer a loss.

If you think generally, I took the opponent’s red, so you would think the opponent would then eat the opponent’s jungle or go to their blue.

But I’m not that easy to deal with.

After eating the opponent’s red, I returned home immediately and headed for my red.

If it goes as I think, then RekSai will probably be hitting the red by now.

‘There’s no red.’

It wasn’t eaten. The time doesn’t match for that.

‘It’s in the bush.’

Sure enough, as soon as the ward was placed in the bush, RekSai’s figure was revealed, hitting the red.

[RekSai – Level 1]

Nice to meet you, you little rascal.

Naturally, it's impossible for level 1 RekSai to be a match for level 2 Kindred with a red buff.

‘No way.’

Level 1 Smite and level 2 Smite.

If it were the old me, I might have lost even with this advantageous position, but not now.

Twoong!

With the sound of Smite resonating clearly, I stole the red.

RekSai's level is still level 1.

Of course, it was impossible to resist or anything.

-You have slain an enemy!

The thrilling feeling.

It feels like the sound of RekSai's keyboard breaking is echoing in my ears.
