[TS] Obsessed Gamer: The Ultimate Return – Chapter 216

Rainbow’s Akali, who should never have been able to come to the bottom lane, suddenly flew in, causing the enemy to panic at their movements.

– Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow!


– Epic!


– Insane!


– Wow, lol!


– Twisted Fate is bewildered, hahaha!


– This is it!


– Help me, brother! I’m dying! Help me! I’m dying! Help me! I’m dying! Help me! I’m dying! Help me! I’m dying!

The audience cheered enthusiastically for Rainbow’s play.

‘It’s definitely flashy.’

As mentioned earlier, it’s not very rare to see Akali follow Twisted Fate in a matchup. However, Proof, who knew this, deliberately used his ultimate skill to initiate a psychological battle against Rainbow, who calmly responded.

I’m not sure if the audience sensed that psychological battle, but at least it looked flashy enough to be good.

‘That’s that.’

Currently, both teams’ junglers came to cover the mid lane, which was empty.

‘If someone teleports to the top first, the opponent can’t break it regardless.’

But even if they manage to teleport, neither looks like they plan to leave the lane.

In other words, the bottom lane is a perfect 3-to-3 matchup.

The enemy bottom composition is Ezreal and Leona.

They either have excellent survivability or strong tankiness.

Under normal circumstances, adding Akali to the combination of Jhin and Jerastu would make it hard to chase down and kill the tanky Ezreal and Leona.

However, the current situation is that the enemy entered first.

To respond, Ezreal used his forward vision, and Leona charged toward Jhin.

In this moment, the sudden appearance of Rainbow’s Akali was nothing short of a disaster for the enemies.

‘Twisted Fate’s ultimate duration has ended.’

In other words, from now on, it’s Akali’s stage.

The one-sided chase instantaneously transformed into a battle.

As skill shots exchanged hands, Rainbow’s Akali stealthily maneuvered right in the middle of the enemy formation.

– Our ally has fallen!

Though our ally Jhin got caught first and died, Akali quickly avenged him by taking down enemy Ezreal.

– Enemy slain!

Proof’s Twisted Fate pulled out a Gold Card to block Akali, but she slipped back into stealth just before the card flew.

Fighting in the stealth area without Twisted Fate’s ultimate was not a good choice, but since Akali caught the enemy from behind, it was possible.

While Proof’s Twisted Fate was stuck with no options, Akali surged out of the stealth and pierced through Twisted Fate with two hits of her ultimate.

– Enemy slain!


– Double Kill!

Leona, symbolic of toughness, barely managed to survive, but due to the situation in the bottom lane, she had no choice but to continue retreating.

A 2-for-1 exchange happened.

Moreover, since Rainbow secured all the kills, it couldn’t get any better.

It’s not just that an extra 1000 balloons were accumulated, but considering Akali’s role in this game.

– Wow!


– Amazing!


– Good!


– What the heck!


– The leader is smiling, hahaha!

On the other hand, Xin Zhao, who could be considered well-farmed on the enemy team, was still only one level above me, but unfortunately, he had no opportunity to utilize his power.

Right now, all Xin Zhao could do was engage in some pointless skirmishes with me in mid to cover the lane.

In the end, the large Jarvan and the well-farmed Xin Zhao ended up doing the same job.

‘He must feel bad.’

But no matter how bad he feels, nothing will change.

That’s just the cold reality of the professional world.

‘Well, to be precise, it is solo queue.’

In the meantime, the game continued.

After a significant loss in the bottom lane, the difference between the two mid-laners had reached a point that couldn’t be reversed due to matchups.

No matter how countered Twisted Fate is by Akali, at this point, Akali could dive and kill Twisted Fate, then waltz away.

The balance between the mids was shattered.

Which also means the balance in the jungle, the lane most closely connected to mid, was disrupted too.

As Rainbow’s Akali took control of the mid push, the previous ruler of the rivers was naturally changed to me.

No matter how not bad Xin Zhao’s growth was, the difference between the junglers was minuscule, whereas the difference between the mid-laners had dramatically widened.

– Xin Zhao is raging, lol!


– Twisted Fate can’t even breathe!


– What the…!


– Wow, but the mid difference is massive!


– Truly Rainbow, whoa!


– Isn’t Proof from the second division? With the way things are looking, he’ll probably get demoted next season, haha!


– Seriously, lol!

Criticism towards the opposing players flooded the chat.

It seemed like if we left it as is, voices we should never hear would start coming out, so I felt it was about time to intervene.

“Please refrain from trash-talking players.”

Quick adjustments and duality are fundamental traits of internet broadcast viewers.

To prove that fact, the audience’s reactions changed so dramatically that it felt like they had completely forgotten what just happened.

– I agree!


– Don’t cross the line!


– For real!


– Anyway, if you let those idiots loose, there’s no end to it.


– Cut out player trash-talking!

Whatever the case, they’re all consistent folks.

And…

The game continued.

Starting from the river, we gradually took control of vision and soon overtook the enemy’s blue side completely.

Since our team held the mid and bottom control, it was a natural flow.

– Our team has slain the Flame Dragon!


– Our team has slain the Rift Herald!

Naturally, objects like dragons and heralds were essentially free.

Usually, the level difference between the laners of the disadvantaged team and the favorable team isn’t as significant as it seems.

After all, regardless of advantage or disadvantage, the number of minions in the game is finite.

But jungles are a different story.

The moment you give up control of the jungle, you risk losing even the camps you ought to be taking.

This was exemplified as Xin Zhao, having only dominant levels early on, was suddenly overtaken in levels by me after losing half of his jungle in no time.

This was the fate of a jungler on a disadvantaged team.

– Jungle difference, lol!


– This is the jungle difference, haha!


– A level gap, whoa!


– Xin Zhao is in a rage, lol!


– But who can you blame? In the end, he did nothing while RPG-ing, so this is how it turned out.


– For real, lol!

This was one of the ironies of jungling.

Trying to bridge the gap by facing pressure from the enemy jungle, a jungler can end up failing to perform his role and watching his team collapse.

‘Of course, the difference in power between the mid-laners played a role too.’

But what can you do?

It’s the jungler’s skill to design routes while considering such factors.

Given that the position itself is often unfair, there’s nothing that can be done.

And… once again, the dragon.

– Our team has slain the Earth Dragon!

The second Rift Herald.

– Our team has slain the Rift Herald!

After naturally reaching the end of the laning phase, when both teams’ tops joined, the situation became even more favorable for us.

No matter how good Jason was in a standoff situation, the forced initiation and team-fighting power of a well-farmed Malphite were not to be ignored.

The enemy’s turret was mercilessly chipped away without even a semblance of resistance.

– He said to give some, but just gave everything.


– Boring.


– Is the game broken?

Currently, Rainbow’s score was 7/0/6.

It was the epitome of a clean KDA, yet it felt somewhat unsatisfying to just end it like this.

‘Did I push mid too aggressively?’

The game had gone too far.

If the other lanes on the enemy team had held on a bit longer, things might have played out differently, but the fight in the bottom lane at level six was critical.

‘But it is what it is.’

Blindly pursuing small amounts of gold only leads to much larger setbacks down the line.

To be precise, 3500 balloons was indeed a large sum, so while it was a bit disappointing, it wasn’t bad.

‘Should we wrap it up soon?’

The only champion on the enemy team who had grown somewhat normally was Jason.

However, one hand can’t block five.

Especially if those five hands aren’t even usual hands.

[⨷]

A ping signaling the end of the game was placed, and finally, fortified by the unyielding Malphite and Rainbow’s Akali, our champions surged forward.

– It’s over!


– Good game!


– Thanks for playing!


– Need to get more kills!


– Surprisingly only got 7 kills.


– I did push a bit too hard, haha!


– The enemy was just too weak.


– I agree!


– The leader is showing clear disappointment, lol!

In the midst of the viewer’s chat, the enemy Nexus exploded.

[Victory]

– Whoa!


– Still, 3500 balloons, whoa!


– A bankruptcy in the making, lol!


– Whoa, whoa, whoa!


– Whoa, whoa, whoa!


– Something big is coming!


– Oh yeah?


– Holding my breath!


– Huuuh!

How long did we wait?

“…Huh?”

Despite having waited so eagerly, unfortunately, the 3500 balloons had not been deposited.

– A scam?


– Is it a scam?


– Who’s the named player again?


– Who is it?


– Is it you?


– ?


– Huh?


– Hahahahaha!


– No way…


– Typical average, lol!

What the heck, give me back my money.
