[TS] Obsessed Gamer: The Ultimate Return – Chapter 257

Two days passed, and OLZ’s next match was just around the corner.

OLZ vs TRP.

This match too was not expected to stray far from everyone’s predictions.

“Honestly, many people had already bet on OLZ’s victory before the match even started, but today’s game… uh, is this Rule Perfect? They’re on a three-game losing streak!”

“Yeah, at least their set score management is somewhat okay? But still… no matter how good the score is, it doesn’t guarantee victory!”

“For sure, Rule Perfect must be feeling pretty sour right now. They’ve been showing signs of a comeback recently, but now they have to face OLZ at this timing!”

“Anyway, I hope the players from Rule Perfect don’t get too discouraged by this match. OLZ… I’m not sure if it’s too early to say this, but for the Challengers Korea teams, they feel like a natural disaster.”

“Like a raging storm, right? What can you do? When a storm is coming, you’ve got to lock the door and stay inside.”

“Haha! That’s true.”

OutLaw Zone vs Team Rule Perfect.

2:0.

OLZ wins.

Normally, this would just be the same old victory, but there was one key difference. It was none other than Supporter Protein who was named POG for Set 2 instead of Outlaw.

– Oh lol, it’s Protein for today’s interview.

– ㄷㄱㄷㄱ

– Wow, isn’t this Protein’s first interview?

– Honestly, not many have been interviewed besides Outlaw lol.

– Ah lol, pass the carry already.

– For real, he’s a carry machine.

– Outlaw looks like a talent monster, but those details that come from experience are just insane lol, what is that?

– Anyone still unsure that Outlaw = Prisoner?

– Nah, just aggro baiting.

And…….

After the interview with Protein Kim Ji-hoon ended, Protein’s fanbase surged.

OLZ vs SC.

At this point, people started having one thought.

Maybe, really, just maybe.

OLZ might go all the way.

“This is how it ends!”

“Gee-gee!”

“OLZ, indeed amazing! I’m even wondering if there was a single moment throughout the match that could be termed a crisis!”

“In reality, it was almost a one-sided game, right? From the laning phase onward, especially regarding jungle involvement… it was just incredible.”

“Did they just crush them with pure power? I mean, OLZ’s strategy was so suffocating that it feels excessive… it seems overwhelmingly dominating.”

“Yeah. It might be a bit too soon to say, but it looks like there’s no rival in Challengers Korea? It feels that overwhelming!”

OutLaw Zone vs South City.

2:0.

OLZ wins.

– Perfect game lol.

– This is just outright domination.

– Feels like Bronze vs Challenger.

– But seriously, Getback’s resurrection makes my heart swell…

– For real.

“This team doesn’t need any more words, the verification is getting tiresome at this point!”

“Actually, they’ve already more than enough verifications! Wait for us, LCKR! Wait for us, Red Cup! We’re coming!”

“Hahaha!! It really seems that way. OLZ! They’re not an ordinary team!”

“So far, many teams from Challengers Korea have knocked on the doors of promotion matches, but it hasn’t been easy. But this time, this time it’s really different. OLZ! They’re strong!”

– This time it’s different.

– But for real, it is different lol.

– Are they really going to the Red Cup?

– Prediction: OLZ wins the Red Cup.

– Too much, lol.

– But for real, it’s different!

OLZ’s march didn’t stop.

OLZ vs Gargoyle.

As with previous matches, everyone was betting on OLZ’s victory again. However, one thing was different: no one expected OLZ to finish the game this quickly.

“Uh? Uh-oh?”

“Wait! Just how far does OLZ plan on going? Shouldn’t they start backing off soon?! Gargoyle might retaliate!”

“Are they ending it? Already?!”

“No, how… how is this happening? Why is it ending so fast?!”

“OLZ, despite the commentators’ fears, doesn’t stop! They’re going all the way!”

“Just like this, the Nexus is destroyed!”

“Gee-gee!”

OutLaw Zone vs Gargoyle.

2:0.

OLZ wins.

– No way, lol.

– A professional game with a 15-minute cut?

– What in the world?

– Like an 8-ton truck with broken brakes ㅋㅋㅋㅋ.

– This is insane.

– OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!OLZ!

“Alright, let’s check the standings.”

“OLZ… is literally overwhelming in first place, right? Not a single set lost.”

Mid-term assessment results of Legends of League Challengers Korea Round 1:

OLZ 6 wins 0 losses.

Score +12.

Set wins all.

Current rank, 1st.

Now, OLZ only had one game left before Round 1 ended.

Starting from Round 2, they would face a major patch version change, marking this as their last game played under the current version.

Naturally, everyone’s attention turned to OLZ.

OLZ’s destructive six-game winning streak.

Naturally, discussions about this continued endlessly in the community.

For real, Outlaw is a legend…

– Anyone still unaware Outlaw = Prisoner? Anyone still unaware Outlaw = Prisoner? Anyone still unaware Outlaw = Prisoner? Anyone still unaware Outlaw = Prisoner?

– Nah, I don’t know about the rest, but I do know you’re out of the loop, yeah.

– For real lol.

– It truly feels like it’s on another level compared to other Challengers Korea teams.

+

They say a fool creates the downfall of others.

As posts related to OLZ practically dominated the community, opposing users poured in criticizing OLZ.

– But is OLZ not just hype? They’re up against the second league.

– For real.

– OLZ is just hype, they’d probably get wrecked in the first league, lol.

– Yeah, ^m^.

– Why are they being so arrogant when they’re not even a two-time winner of the Red Cup? Just get lost.

– What’s so great about OLZ? They suck, they’d get wiped in the first league, tsk tsk.

Hwarang said: “OLZ is strong in scrims. I think they’d do well even in the first league.”

What’s up with those haters who keep bashing OLZ even when current first league players are saying differently? lol

────────

– Just leave them be, they’re foolish lol.

– Even if they bash OLZ, it won’t change their lives, so it’s foolishness to stubbornly hate on them lol.

– Agreed, real idiots.

– Eventually, people will figure it out. I think OLZ is the real deal.

+

Whether it’s because of that or not, the community’s atmosphere resembled a war zone.

Of course, there were far more ordinary reactions amidst this situation.

– Did Outlaw’s stats come out?

– Can this really be a stat seen in professional matches? lol.

– Is there an Honor interview out yet?????????

– Protein! Protein! Protein! Protein! Protein! Protein! Protein!

The Legends of League Challengers Korea Summer Season Round 1 is now heading towards its conclusion.

*

Recently, the team atmosphere was filled with nothing but merry vibes.

“Did you see? What I’m doing here? Wow, this is epic. Why is Jaem-min playing so well!”

“Agreed.”

As usual, the playful banter between Kim Jae-min and Baek Seong-an began, and even Kim Ji-hoon, who would normally use this time for practice, was watching the replay of the competition instead.

It’s only natural for people to want to see reactions to their good plays, after all.

“Tomorrow’s the last day.”

“What do you mean?”

“The patch.”

“Oh.”

Starting from Season 2, the league would proceed with the version that had undergone a major patch.

In other words, it meant there could be changes for our team, which had been sailing smoothly up to now.

In fact, there were plenty of teams and players in Legends of League whose performances fluctuated dramatically with the meta changes, so it was only natural to feel a bit worried.

“It’ll be fine. Everyone practiced hard in solo queue.”

“That’s true.”

After the major patch, Kim Jae-min scored 310 points in Master, setting a new top rating.

At this point, it was reasonable to expect to at least maintain their rank, so he was in a position that benefitted from the patched version.

Given Kim Jae-min’s propensity for active trading, it seemed like the newly introduced Preemptive Strike rune and the changed Lethal Tempo fit him quite well.

“For now, let’s prepare for tomorrow’s match. The version hasn’t changed yet.”

“Yeah.”

New changes were approaching.
