The opposing bot lane is the SY Bottom Duo.
Longbow and GuineaPig.
They are undoubtedly not a trivial opponent.
“Of course, they aren’t giving me any breathing room.”
Our ally Leona was trying to catch Ruler, but even if GuineaPig had to flash, he was still maintaining an awkward distance.
“Well then…”
The opposing team was already on high alert. Trying to make a move now would just waste time.
“Right now, Nidalee should be timing her return to the upper jungle.”
Nidalee had no reason to go back to the lower jungle now.
There weren’t any jungle camps left to eat.
It would benefit me more if she came to the bot lane and wasted her turn.
“And the opponents in mid and bot are both being extra cautious. So…”
There’s really no need to force a gank.

[OLZ Outlaw (K’Sante) is on the way]
I headed straight for the Dragon.
After all, there was no one who could stop my solo dragon, not even the opposing laner or their jungler.
– The blue team has defeated the Chemtech Dragon!
“Hmm.”
This Dragon was a first for me.
– Good
– Gah!
– Dragon yummy~
– Oh, what’s the effect?
“Effect? Just a sec…”
I checked the dragon’s effect.
“Oh, it’s similar to overcoming health differences. It deals an additional 5% damage per stack to targets with higher current health than yourself.”
I planned to transform into Shadow Assassin in this game, so it wasn’t the best fit, but hey, better than nothing.
– That soul effect is super fun!
– Where?
– It’s that Sion passive; you can use skills too, for real it’s fun!
– Oh!
As the audience pointed out, the soul effect was indeed entertaining, and it was quite beneficial for me too.
“Not bad.”
Even though I was slightly delayed in the timing due to taking the objective, I was still moving at a decent pace.
“First, let’s hit the house.”
While I was taking the dragon, Nidalee was likely recovering from her virtually ruined jungle clear.
The growth difference between junglers had practically vanished at this point.
“Yeon-woo, how’s top? Any angles?”
[“I’ll try to set something up.”]
– The confidence is insane!
– So cool!
– Noona, I’m dying!
– Who’s that noona…?
– Of course, it’s the little sister!
– Damn, lol!
– You guys…
– What am I even seeing right now?
– Stop!!!
– Aaaaaaaah!
As the audience said, the fact that she was willing to make a play even without any angles was truly impressive.
Especially considering they were up against EZ.
“By the way, I feel like my skills have definitely improved since before.”
Sure, the past Honorary Member of 3 Min Top School sometimes managed to solo kill players like EZ, but that was just every once in a while.
But now it felt like I had really leveled up, like I was in a whole other class.
“Well, I did practice a lot in scrims.”
The process from amateur to pro, a journey that Seo Yeon-woo had already experienced quite a bit.
If she didn’t grow, that would be strange.
Having scouted the blue side jungle, I naturally moved up and dug a hole at top.
Given the current lane situation, diving or ganking felt pretty sketchy.
“Nidalee will eat the Rift Crab and come right back up.”
[“Yep.”]
Guess I was right on the mark.
Before long, I spotted Nidalee in the top lane bush.
– Predictions are insane!
– How the heck do you know?
– No wards, what’s going on here?
– What the heck is this?
– This isn’t just a prediction; it’s practically a prophecy, what the heck!
– Mind blown!
– Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw!
– What kind of brain power is that?
“Can we catch them?”
[“Yeah.”]
The trap was already set.
All that was left was execution.
Jason and Nidalee slowly began to pressure Yeon-woo’s Viktor.
Viktor pretended no one was in the bush, opting not to go to the central bush I was in but instead moved to another one.
“Okay.”
With Viktor’s Gravity Field and ultimate laid down, I finally pounced from the side bush where I was quietly hiding onto the stunned Nidalee and Jason.
It was a perfect counter-gank.
– Whoa!
– Wow!
– The setup was crazy!
– You read that?!
The panic was palpable in the movements of the opposing team as they felt the rush of urgency.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Both Jason and Nidalee’s flashes had already been used up by me.
No matter how much they struggled, there was no escaping from a perfect opportunity like this.
– First Blood!
– Enemy eliminated!
The perfect trap and counter-gank had already decided the outcome of the skirmish.
Yeon-woo and I happily split the kills.
“Hmm.”
The opposing champions are Jason and Nidalee.
K’Sante charges differently depending on the form of champions he’s facing.
In other words, for me, targeting the Shadow Assassin, if the opponent died in their near form, that wouldn’t be particularly good.
Whether it was coincidental or intentional, if it was intentional, it was quite a detailed interference from the enemy.
“But, it’s already a done deal.”
If there was one detail that the opponents were overlooking, it was the fact that the rune I was holding was the Sudden Impact rune.
“I’ve transformed.”
[“Nice.”]
My transformation was into Shadow Assassin.
Fortunately, I didn’t have to wait.
K’Sante is a champion where performance is drastically different based on whether he transforms or not.
Regardless of the meta, once K’Sante transforms, he’s a jungle champion of the highest tier.
But the process for that transformation isn’t easy, which has been why he hasn’t been so impactful up to this point.
In other words, as long as I could transform, K’Sante becomes completely different.
Now, the enemy jungle was practically my backyard.
Nidalee had very few options against Shadow Assassin K’Sante.
“Before that, I should free up mid.”
After the level 6 timing, Twisted Fate was in a slightly withdrawn mood.
If he wasn’t careful, even with an advantage, he could end up getting solo killed by Akali.
“Not bad, holding out well?”
Given that the opponent was MAX HwaLang, it was quite impressive.
He was aware of the champion matchups and fully understood both strong and weak timings while performing excellently in lane.
[⨷]
[OLZ Outlaw (K’Sante) targets MAX HwaLang (Akali)]
“Let’s go.”
As I jumped off the wall, Akali quickly hid into her shroud.
But that was meaningless against Twisted Fate.
As my vision cleared, a gold card struck right above Akali’s head.
– Enemy eliminated!
But that wasn’t the end of it.
With my ultimate activated, Twisted Fate dashed straight to top.
And just like that, a smooth top dive was executed.
It was the moment the game burst open.

[Victory]
– GG
– Whoa
– The enemy top lane went down before they knew it, LOL!
– And that top lane was EZ Hwarang, LOL!
– JGCKJKJCKJKJCKJKJCKJKJCKJKJCKJKJCKJKJK
– But wasn’t Kim Chun-sik the huge winner? After all, he met Outlaw! LOL!
– For real, LOL!
The first solo queue after the massive patch ended up being easier than expected.
But there were still too many unknowns, so I felt the need to keep playing games.
“Yeon-woo, want to play more?”
“Ah, yes.”
“Then, let’s go right away.”
The practice continued.
*
A long or short break was over.
Of course, we hadn’t just been goofing off. We spent five days intensely practicing and training.
“Are you all ready?”
“Yes.”
“Ready.”
“Yep!”
“Yes!”
“Ready!”
OLZ.
Deployment.
*
Having dominated the top two teams in Challengers Korea, BLH and FFF, OLZ continued its advance against BGG today.
If they got in the way, they simply faced them head-on.
That was OLZ’s relentless offense.
“Ah, OLZ is charging through! Who’s going to stop this team?!”
“That was some truly dominant gameplay! Who could’ve expected Big Game Gaming would crumble this easily?”
“Exactly! You know it’s so wild that people are even saying to just give OLZ the championship and pick a runner-up instead! That’s how insane their performance is!”
The champions of OLZ charged unreservedly towards the enemy Nexus.
However, no surviving troops remained from BGG.
Because there was nothing left behind where OLZ had swept through.
“Just like that, OLZ takes the second set with overwhelming performance!”
“GG!”
Outlaw Zone vs Big Game Gaming.
2:0.
OLZ wins.
Cheers erupted from the audience inside and outside the stadium.
– Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw!
– Aww… Big sis, I’m dying.
– Who’s the interviewee today? Please let it be Honor…
– GAYGAYGAYGAY!
And…
The season slowly entered its mid-point.
