[TS] Obsessed Gamer: The Ultimate Return – Chapter 104

Gold from the elimination: 700 gold.

Base gold for the champion: 300 gold.

Total: 1000 gold.

In an instant, a whopping 1000 gold was grasped in the hands of the enemy’s main damage dealer, Ezreal.

-?????????

-What’s this?

-Why did they suddenly throw it?

-That’ll work, haha!

-Is this… what the crazy guy said about kills?

『‘Jjuhsim’s Slave’ gifted 10 Balloons.』


『“You know it’s a mission when you win, right?”』

What’s this? Where’s that coming from?

-Jjuhsim’s Slave is suddenly grinning, haha!

-Oh haha, fan service.

-Stop being a jerk!

-But it’s true that kill missions are typically win-only, haha!

Unfortunately, the audience wasn’t on my side.

Well, usually in Legends of League, the unspoken rule is that kill-related missions require a win, so I can’t really complain…

“Um, well… things have gotten a bit worse.”

The situation turned peculiar.

In Legends of League, having a player who was good suddenly start performing poorly is way more critical than having a player who was bad suddenly play well.

You’d even say that if someone’s going to die, it’s better for the worst player to take all the deaths.

In that sense, the death of Jarvan III, who was carrying the game, held significant weight.

“I should’ve been more careful as a damage Jarvan…”

While tank Jarvan can dive in and get out based on growth, damage Jarvan cannot.

Of course, adopting Bloodthirster as a core item could provide some sustainability, but that’s entirely thanks to an extreme level of focus.

Having fallen from a precarious tightrope, all that remained was to pay the price.

[❗] [❗] [❗]

The enemy team, which had been hunkered down, began to slowly expand its vision, fueled by Ezreal’s explosive growth.

Starting with the completely dominated red side jungle, now it had reached a level where we couldn’t recklessly hit Baron even if it emerged.

And,

The fact that Ezreal had created a Mid standoff meant that control was gradually shifting.

-Throwing snowball fights, haha!

-This is why we don’t play damage Jarvan. Now we’ve got nothing to do.

-Reversal incoming?

-Not yet, but it’s risky.

Honestly, the viewers weren’t entirely wrong.

‘…not looking good.’

Of course, given how advantageous the game was, it’s not like one throw could turn the tables or show signs of defeat.

The issue was the gap in concentration between allies and enemies.

Currently, our allies were so far ahead that they were literally playing the game casually, while the enemies had started focusing seriously, seizing any faint chance of a comeback.

Right now, our team was spread out like wings.

On the other hand, the enemy broke their long silence and grouped up mid.

-The red team has destroyed a turret!

Caught off-guard, our team lost the first mid turret way too easily.

It was, quite literally, a free turret.

But that wasn’t the end of the situation.

With the first mid turret, which had previously pressured the enemy, gone, LeBlanc, whose movements had been restricted until now, was finally free to roam.

Naturally, LeBlanc and Xin Zhao’s squad, who had rotated, eliminated our Sylas, who was pushing the bot lane.

-Our ally has been defeated!


-Executed!

Normally, Sylas shouldn’t have gone that deep, but given the ambiguous timing right before Baron appeared, it was a possible play.

[MAX WooChan (Sylas) : Top cause of death in the 20s. One more line.]


[MYE Trainer (Samira) : hahahaha I agree!]

Including the elimination gold, 750 gold went back to the enemy team, yet the atmosphere among my teammates remained light.

Well… I can’t really say much since I was the one who opened the floodgates for the throws.

-Haha, this is hilarious.

-WooChan is consistently funny, haha!

-So entertaining!

-Jjuhsim’s Slave is about to join the WooChan fan club, haha!

『‘Jjuroo’ gifted 10 Balloons.』


『“Yeah, WooChan, that’s the one!”』

-The host’s expression turned stiff, haha!

-Wow.

-Sis, I’m dying! Sis, I’m dying! Sis, I’m dying! Sis, I’m dying! Sis, I’m dying! Sis, I’m dying!

Even if the viewers were enjoying it, which can be seen as a good broadcast situation…

‘It’s about time to get serious.’

Of course, our team comp isn’t one that will gradually lose power in the late game compared to the enemy.

Rather, it could be seen as getting better and better as the game progressed.

However, as the game drags on, inevitably, variables will arise.

What I’m wary of is that very variable.

Again, the enemy joined mid, and Ezreal’s pokes began.

This meant that naturally, we couldn’t help but get advantages on the other lanes, but perhaps realizing it’d be of no use to haphazardly split up their forces, the enemy didn’t stop joining.

And, before I knew it, our second mid turret was being pressured.

In short, the enemy had overstepped.

However, unfortunately, I couldn’t engage as I usually would.

It was due to the item build I chose, blinded by kills.

‘I need an initiation.’

I’m a damage Jarvan.

No matter how much I have a Guardian Angel, initiating is not that wise of a choice.

More importantly, don’t we have plenty of champions on our team capable of initiating right now?

Since my assigned role was a damage dealer rather than a tank, it was better to leave the initiation to my team.

[Timid Person 190 (Sett) is heading over]


[Timid Person 190 (Sett) is heading over]

At that moment.

Our ally Sett, who had somehow vanished from the enemy’s sight, began to make a secret rotation.

‘Hmm.’

-??

-Where’s Sett going?

-Sett’s Journey, haha!

It wasn’t strange for the viewers to express confusion as Sett’s movement seemed odd at a glance.

It looked like he was taking a long way around, but I knew that this route completely evaded the enemy’s vision.

‘He knows the enemy ward positions.’

To be precise, Sett fully grasped the regions of vision controlled by both our team and the enemy.

And, at last, Sett successfully caught the enemy off-guard.

[⨷]

[Timid Person 190 (Sett) targeted MAX KingGodEmperor (Ezreal)]

The timing was split-second.

As I deliberately let Ezra’s poke reach me, as if waiting for it, he casted his forward vision.

Given damage Jarvan’s nature, even one poke from Ezreal can be lethal, plus he had Flash to escape, so it was a low-risk play on my part; however, Sett was already in position behind him.

Consequently, Sett saw the same angle as I did.

As soon as Ezreal, late to notice Sett, used Flash to create distance, the enemy team began to swarm to protect him.

At the moment Xin Zhao was about to push Sett away with his ultimate, Sett’s ultimate snagged Xin Zhao first.

Following that, Sett’s ultimate dealt area damage.

And as Sett gathered the enemies with his E skill, Jarvan’s ultimate went off in an area attack.

Amid the chaos of the two teams, Silas, who had stolen Kennen’s ultimate, clashed with Kennen in each other’s territory, but there was already a significant growth gap between them.

No matter how similar the lightning storm may appear on the outside, they’re never truly equal.

In the already crumbling situation, the outcome of the team fight was more or less predetermined.

-Enemy has been slain!


-Double kill!


-We can’t hold them back!


-Enemy has been slain!


-Double kill!


-Finish them!

5:0 team fight victory.


Sett, who had literally plunged into the heart of the enemy lines, even used Stopwatch to survive until the very end.

-Oh!

-Wow!

-WTF!

-Does this make sense?

-What’s Sett’s grand plan, haha!

-Sett hard carried, that’s insane!

-Wow, nailed it, haha!

-Is this… a Celestial-level team fight?

『‘VariousThisAndThat ’ gifted 10 Balloons.』


『“Wow!”』

I stole a glance at Sett.

‘This person… is so good.’

There are plenty of people who perform well when the team is doing well.

After all, it’s an advantageous game, so all you have to do is run rampant on the laid-out board.

But what about in unfavorable situations?

In tough times, even the most skilled players are bound to shrink in their play.

A single small mistake could lead to irreversible damage or, in severe cases, the end of the game.

That’s why it’s players who can shine in adverse conditions that are usually called the real deal.

‘Of course, it’s not that we were in a completely unfavorable situation right now… but it could still become dangerous.’

But Sett pulled it off.

Perfectly, no less.

‘…is this person a pro?’

But was there a pro using such a username?

I quickly searched for the nickname off-air, but no professional name came up.

‘If he’s a smurf, he should have a low number of games, but it doesn’t seem like that.’

The remaining possibilities narrowed down to one of three.

A foreign pro, a domestic trainee, or a legit amateur.

For some reason, I couldn’t take my eyes off Sett.

My heart was racing.

‘Something feels…’

I think I know what this feeling is.

‘Found it.’

My team’s supporter.
