[TS] Obsessed Gamer: The Ultimate Return – Chapter 133

“What the hell.”

Ryu Jin-hyuk shook his head. He didn’t know why those thoughts kept creeping up, but no was no.

While Ryu Jin-hyuk momentarily spaced out, the broadcast chat exploded.

It seemed everyone was focused on Outlaw, who was performing well in the game.

-Who is that?


-jg carry.


-Outlaw is insane lolololol


-lololololololol


-jungle is so good.


-outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw! outlaw!


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


-Ah lol, Outlaw is the king, right? haha


-Who is that?


-Look it up yourself, idiot.

Even foreign viewers were cheering for Outlaw, so there was definitely something special about his plays.

Like the Rainbow himself.

And…

“Why do I keep thinking like this?”

Ryu Jin-hyuk shook his head. He couldn’t understand why the thoughts haunted him step by step.

“Ha.”

Thanks to the chaotic chat, Ryu Jin-hyuk shook off his distractions and refocused on the game.

And it was a typical one-sided match.

The bot lane took down their turret first and joined the Rift Herald fight, smoothly securing the first Herald.

Then, using the Herald, they took down the top tier one turret.

Thinking they could no longer push it, the enemy team’s five joined mid to defend and bravely initiated, but it ended in an overwhelming 4:1 exchange.

After the team fight victory, our team smoothly grabbed the mid tier two turret, the dragon, and the second Herald, mercilessly toying with the enemy.

-The enemy has agreed to surrender with a vote of 5 in favor and 0 opposed.

Soon, with the top and bot tier two turrets crumbling, a surrender came in.

[Victory]

-Kya


-That was insane lol


-Super clean


-Why doesn’t our team play like this?


-Cause you’re not challenger, duh.


-For real lol

Even after the game ended, the lobby was quiet and uneventful.

Not that I felt disappointed, so I left the lobby just like that.

“Whew….”

Even though it was an easy game, the fatigue level was no joke, given the League of Legends nature where one game takes a toll.

It had been almost 20 days since I started my no-break streaming, so no matter how godly my physique was, fatigue inevitably piled up.

Especially mental fatigue.

‘… I’ve focused too much on finding 5v5 teammates.’

Now that it was all over, it seemed fatigue had built up without me realizing it.

‘And I’m starting to feel a bit off physically too…’

It felt like magic was about to strike.

But since I couldn’t show that weakness to my viewers, I had no choice but to pretend to be okay and keep the no-break stream going.

‘… I’ll be fine.’

Though I had fainted at first, I gradually got used to it and it became bearable over time.

Above all, I couldn’t afford to slack off in the remaining week of no-break streaming.

I logged onto a search site for my game history.

It had been quite a while.

[Outlaw]


Rank 43


Solo rank


– Challenger


– 1134 LP / 96 Wins 0 Losses


– Win Rate 100%

+

– A 100% win rate looks amazing every time lol


– For real


– 96 wins with 1100 points… dude, I’m dying!


– Hehe…


– Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw!

Ignoring the same viewers’ chatter, I shifted my gaze to the rankings.

Currently, the number one rank was MAX King God Emperor with 1646 points.

Considering the current meta wasn’t too friendly for ADCs, it gave me a sense of how strong King God Emperor was right now.

‘1646 points, huh.’

With the time left, it could be enough, but…

‘The problem is my physical condition.’

I could feel my body getting heavier little by little.

The discomfort that I’d now gotten used to.

Although I wanted to run straight to bed and sleep, I couldn’t just do that because I was in a no-break stream.

And it didn’t sit well with me to play without caring about the win or loss either.

If possible, I wanted to give my all in every game.

If I forced games in a bad condition and lost, I would need double the effort just to recover.

Well… I was a human too, and secretly felt proud and good about maintaining a 100% win rate.

‘Just, let’s give it my best.’

Putting aside complicated thoughts, I decided to focus on the current game at hand.

After the meeting of Outlaw and Rainbow.

The community buzzed with mentions of Outlaw.

Not just domestically, but internationally too, with Rainbow’s undeniable popularity showcased, it was strange that people weren’t taking an interest in Outlaw.

Of course, once playoff season rolls around, attention on tournaments would rise again, but for now, Outlaw was truly at the center of the League of Legends scene.

Outlaw had that much buzz and potential.

– But for real, when will that 100% win rate be broken?


– What if it only breaks when it goes pro? haha


– Why do you expect it to break? It could sweep the Red Cup with a perfect victory as it is.


– Getback included? Stop dreaming haha


– For real haha Even so, the members are a bit much.


– Isn’t it a bit extreme for a rookie team to maintain a 100% win rate?


– Top is a 3 Min Top School Honorary Member, but a clean sweep? Oh damn, if that happens, I’ll send Outlaw 10,000 DP.


– Memed, completed.

Especially, the biggest point of concern was when would Outlaw’s record of a 100% win rate be broken.

Given the nature of League of Legends, such an absurd win rate couldn’t be maintained indefinitely.

Especially since Outlaw was even going to make a pro team, there was no way to lose interest.

– But what’s Outlaw’s main account nickname?


– No idea? Doesn’t anyone know?


– Some viewers asked, but he said he deleted it years ago to avoid problems after talking trash.


– Lmao haha


– Dude, curse at me too! Dude, curse at me too! Dude, curse at me too! Dude, curse at me too! Dude, curse at me too! Dude, curse at me too! Dude, curse at me too!

A new spark of drama ignited in what was otherwise a peaceful community.

Did Outlaw make it to the Chinese betting site?

────────


– Lmao haha


– What’s that about?


– Are they seriously betting on random players now? What the hell?


– How do they even know about Red TV? They’ve lost it.


– Outlaw’s status spreading globally… heh.


– If you just bet on the wins, that’s a sure money maker, right?


– For real lol


– Sounds tempting, how about a little gamble?


– But betting on just one winner is nuts, right?


– Is that even real about betting odds? Betting on wins for a 5% return, lol.

The illegal betting linked to tournaments and players’ solo ranks in League of Legends wasn’t a recent issue.

However, even though he was just an average guy streaming, Outlaw drew attention from foreign illegal betting sites.

– Now they’re causing ruckus in the games too…


– Seriously crossing the line, those bastards.


– Wasn’t it just being good? Is there any issue with that?


– What’s the game company doing? They’re just skimming profits with no action.


– For real.


– But is betting on Outlaw even worth it? If you just graze by with 5% and then hit an upset, you’re doomed.


– That’s why it’s gambling, you idiot.

Bet a hefty amount of 10,000 won on the loss.

– Haha, upset sh*t lol


– How’d you do that?


– The upset is totally real lol


– Are you someone who can read Chinese?


– Hey, guide me on how to do it, you loser.


– Just throwing money away.


– Damn, they’re at it again betting recklessly haha.


– To be honest, I’d rather go for the upset and get 2.5x than silly 5% returns lol.


– If you have money to burn, buy me some chicken, bro.


– Info: Chicken costs over 10,000 won.


– Don’t know market chicken?


– Not tasty.


– You probably just haven’t found a good place, franchise lover.


– Next rural town?

With that said, the discussions on when Outlaw’s perfect win rate would be broken intensified, especially tied to the betting sites.
