It all started with a community post.

Title: para broadcast starting
(para’s broadcast screen)
The Challenger level middle school girl who appeared on the Hanbyeori’s Master Craftsman segment last week has started broadcasting.
Looking at her score, if she wins about three more matches, she’ll hit first place. She’s really good, seriously.
– Who is she? What a noob comment.
– She’s the legendary girl challenger. She’s cute. People say she only uses one champ (even though it’s not true). If you don’t know para, why are you even in the LoL gallery?
– Seriously, go watch the Master Craftsman video on YouTube and come back.
– Why doesn’t she turn on her cam?
A random person discovered Yoon Seohwa’s broadcast and posted it in the community.
Normally, a post like this would get buried quickly among all the other “gold cup” posts.
But now it’s off-season.
With the World Championship team already crowned, the gold cup posts lost their significance.
The post about Yoon Seohwa’s broadcast quickly rose to the top.
– Wow, she’s ridiculously pretty. Why does someone this beautiful play LoL?
– Exactly. If she just did a cam show, she’d be printing money.
– Is she 15? I can’t handle it.
– Turn on your notepad! lol
– She’s going to be famous, alright. Turn on your notepad, seriously.

Title: A scary record
(A screenshot showing para’s records: 300 wins, 40 losses)
In this season where even veteran players are struggling, a record like this is ridiculous.
Even the few losses she has were duo games with Hanbyeori or against Bronze players.
– Yeah, this is actually better than the pro gamer Soul’s record. She beat the World champion, lol.
– I’ve heard she’s preparing seriously to become a professional.
– A girl pro gamer? lol. Don’t make me laugh.
– She’s top 20 in Challenger though, lol.
– She can become first with just three more wins. The one laughing is you, lol.

Title: The junior high girl who boycotted Mararozetanghurru and asked for rice soup instead
She’s just pure talent, seriously.
If she became my girlfriend, I wouldn’t complain, right?
– What the hell, lol.
– Step away from the keyboard.
– Look at her pale skin… I can’t deal with it.
– You try holding your breath, lol.
To the community users who were idly browsing without anything interesting to see, this junior high challenger was an unexpected jackpot.
Especially since she wasn’t just any junior high challenger, but a stunning beauty who made people wonder why she even bothered playing games.
Adding to that was her straightforward personality shown during the “Master Craftsman” segment.
Yoon Seohwa’s presence was all that was needed to set the community ablaze.

Title: Is this even a broadcast…?
(A screenshot where the broadcast was left on and the ranked game screen was visible)
She just turned on the broadcast and kept doing ranked games without saying anything. There were two back-to-back solos.
But the games were so entertaining to watch because the players were all top-tier.
She has a physical play style where she dominates her opponents with raw power, which is entertaining.
– That’s the fun part.
– She lets out a “Ugh…” when she dies sometimes, and it’s legit.
– Go step away from the keyboard.
– Junior high student saying “Ugh…” after dying…
The number of viewers grew from just a few to 1200.
1200 viewers with no promotion was impressive.
And what did Yoon Seohwa do when she saw the growing number of viewers?
“I see a lot of people have gathered. Let’s play a quick game.”
She started another solo ranked game.
[She’s legit, okay.]
[Another LoL legend has been born.]
[This one really likes solo ranked, okay.]
[Is she not doing a webcam broadcast?]
[Broadcast your cute face! Please, I’m dying here!]
Slowly but surely, more and more people started tuning in.
“More people showed up than I thought.”
1200. It could be considered both a big and a small number.
In her previous life as a pro gamer, she would have probably stopped the game at this point and started chatting with her audience.
But now, her priority was the queue.
“One more win and I’ll be first. Can you wait for that?”
The game was all about momentum.
If you’re on a losing streak, you should stop.
If you’re on a winning streak, you should keep going.
And no one could beat her, who was now on a two-game winning streak.
[First place deserves it.]
[Let’s go! Let’s go!]
[This junior high girl hitting first place in Challenger is definitely a legendary event.]
[She’s slaughtering people now, lol.]
[Is this the same person who got a 20 death game?]
Viewers seemed to approve of her going for first place, judging from the chat.
[A game has been found.]
“Hmm…”
The game started faster than expected, resulting in her having the last pick.
With a tank in the top lane and a feeding marksman in the bottom lane,
and knowing that her opponent in the middle lane was Azir, who’s now weaker in lane due to continuous nerfs,
she selected one of her main champions: Yune.
If the game was laid out for a carry, it was only right to choose her for the job.
“…Even if I’m not a man.”
And so the game began.
TOP: Maokai
JG: Lisim
MID: Yune
AD: Jiksu
SUP: Leona
VS
TOP: K’Sante
JG: Biwago
MID: Azir
AD: Aphelios
SUP: Pyke
[NiceFeedWithNoPunchesMarksman(Jiksu): I’ll just clear the bottom lane.]
[NiceFeedWithNoPunchesMarksman(Jiksu): Let’s play top lane. When I get stronger, I’ll ultimate you.]
True to his name, the player who picked the feeding marksman had a different mindset from a usual marksman player.
If a normal marksman would be unable to bear not being the star of the game,
‘You win.’
The mid lane minions finally met.
The opponent Azir came with the Conqueror rune.
His plan was to endure and burst damage in a team fight.
Knowing this, I chose the Domination rune.
Up until level three, Azir could pressure Yune so he tried to do so but I didn’t let him.
I took some hits, but my Thornmail and Revive were godsends.
As the enemy was pushing the line to go back, it was a cannon minion wave. If Azir left, even with teleport, he would’ve missed the wave.
“There’s no way you can go back, right? Then prepare to pay.”
I stopped the enemy’s recall with my loaded Q skill and E skill Soul Release.
If the next lane was pushed as well, it would be a freezing line, even with teleport.
“Can’t go home? Then let’s have some fun.”
I exchanged damage with Azir who started pushing the line again.
Although I couldn’t solo kill him at the early stage, I managed to bring his health to near death,
[NiceCraftsmanBro(Lisim): Great job.]
Lisim ganked and cleaned up the kill after eating the opponent’s blade.
And that was the end of the mid-lane battle.
All that remained was to keep casting Yune’s Q skill tornado towards Azir whenever it was ready, causing him endless agony.
Time passed and it was already over 40 minutes.
After Lisim’s early game gank and two consecutive solo kills, the top lane fell to an ambush.
Trying to handle the recently buffed Maokai was no easy task, indeed.
[del145141(Lisim): Let’s just do a quick team fight and finish this.]
Judging that dragging out the game any longer wouldn’t be beneficial, Lisim started Baron alone.
To be honest, it felt like he just died a lot and went insane.
However, since the enemy top laner and support were in the bottom lane, we decided to help him.
[del145141(Lisim) is coming.]
But due to Jiksu being the marksman, the Baron progress was slower than expected. Then the enemy top laner and support arrived.
Here, Lisim decided to start the fight.
As soon as the enemy Aphelios cast his sound wave, followed by Lisim’s stunning ultimate, Maokai’s CC joined in.
The opponent Aphelios, having used his cleanse earlier in a fight, exploded right there without reacting.
But the enemy team still had a grown K’Sante and Biwago left.
[NiceFeedWithNoPunchesMarksman(Jiksu): That long thing *]
Similar to his earlier actions, the enemy K’Sante seemed to be attempting to avenge Aphelios’ death by using flash and ultimate to kidnap Jiksu and tear him apart.
And then Biwago followed up with a costume change using his passive.
Had I been playing a mage champion, I could have possibly taken out either K’Sante or Biwago and then died to the other one, but I was playing Yune.
[There’s no room for personal emotions!]
With the airborne Q skill followed up by ultimate combo, I launched both K’Sante and Biwago into the air.
Further following up with W skill’s percentage-based damage along with Q skill and auto attacks.
I quickly cleaned up NiceFeedWithNoPunchesMarksman’s transformed Biwago, and finished off K’Sante with E skill’s final damage.
I wrapped it all up by capturing Azhar and ended the game.
A super minion was rushing towards the previously pushed enemy top inhibitor.
[vz Lucie(Leona): Let’s teleport top and finish it.]
Following the order from our previously silent support, I teleported top.
We took down the twin towers and were about to destroy the Nexus when the enemy team’s Aphelios revived.
Fortunately, I used E skill to create distance and managed to single-point the Nexus to win the game.
[VICTORY]
Though we won, it was still too early to relax.
The score showed a +27 LP increase, bringing me to 1023 LP.
If the first-place player hadn’t played the game, I would have been first.
‘Please…’
When I checked the ranking on the stats site,
