It excites the viewers
The Dalgeun Team scrimmage was arranged faster than expected.
It had to be that way.
There were a total of 6 teams participating.
Even if they were to scrimmage, the 6 teams had to take turns playing against each other.
Since the practice period was only about two days, the moment they gathered, it was straight into practice.
And in that process.
‘Hmm, it’s been really long since I’ve done bottom coaching.’
Former pro Jeon Jin-su was assigned as the bottom coach for the Dalgeun Team.
Since Jeon Jin-su had played bottom, specifically the ADC role, during his professional career.
He pulled up Mungi and Jin Yu-jeong’s individual screens and watched them with a serious expression.
– Jin-su, do we really need to take this seriously?
– They’re low tier so even if you give feedback they won’t understand it all, take it easy
“How can you say that, looking at their expressions they all seem very serious about this. But since the game hasn’t started yet, I’m just saying… Mungi, this person… his shoulders are too broad. He doesn’t fit completely in the camera frame.”
– Agreed
– For real
– lol I heard those kinds of people are really fucking huge when you see them up close
– Dal-geun’s testimony) It’s really ridiculous, too intimidating
– It’s fortunate that guys like that are smiling, but if they got serious and said something it’d be scary
– For real
– I can feel the intimidation
– Getting mild school days PTSD
– But guys like that are actually nice because no one has ever been hostile toward them
– That’s true
– But damn, your hands are really fucking big lol
Checking the chat room reactions, Jeon Jin-su looked at the bottom profiles again.
‘Mungi is Silver with 2000 games, and Jin Yu-jeong is Platinum with 500 games, they’re all serious about Canyon.’
To be honest, since these were people who had already accumulated quite a lot of games.
Expecting them to change in just two days from feedback would be extremely difficult.
Since they had spent a lot of time playing solo.
Bad habits would unconsciously keep popping up.
But changing that in just two days? It was absolutely impossible.
Because people don’t change easily.
Anyway.
“Oh, it’s starting. But Mungi took Cleanse? A Silver ADC’s Cleanse… I’m curious how he’ll use it?”
– Usually they use it after taking all the damage
– But the effect still remains, cheers
– lol
– The support has a diverse champion pool though, can pick fights with opponents and also protect allies
– So it’s a small hexagon
– Agreed
The scrimmage began in earnest.
Since it would look awkward for Jeon Jin-su to just watch silently, he casually threw out some words.
“Actually, if you think about it, Canyon in low tiers is… really simple. There are 3 lanes. And the Jungle between those lanes, 1 person in the top lane, 1 in the center, 1 in the Jungle, 2 in Bottom… They face off against each other like that, fight, and it’s over.”
– Hahahaha exactly
– In low tiers, once laning phase ends, everyone just groups Mid
– There are 3 lanes but they just fight in Mid and it’s over
– It’s like ARAM
– Straight food hahaha
– Fighting should always be focused on objectives
“Due to the nature of low tiers, they don’t know how to end games, so games do drag on… But does that mean laning phase isn’t important? That’s not it either. Games are decided in laning phase, but they just get dragged out in that state.”
– True
– Too many variables in teamfights
– Many in a different sense though
– No, our team just goes in randomly
– Me watching our team suddenly go full throttle alone and die: ㄱ-
Jeon Jin-su muttered these words while checking the picks of both teams’ Bottom players.
Honestly, he had no interest in lanes like top, jungle, or Mid.
The only things he cared about were Bottom lane phase and the ADC’s focus in the late game.
“The picks are just solid for both teams, going for strong laning to prevent the game from ending too early.”
The ADC that Mungi was playing was Miss Fortune, actually an incredible ADC in this tournament.
They kept calling him Mungmayusi, and his champion selection was definitely exceptional from the start.
But somehow.
[An ally has been slain.]
As time passed.
[An enemy has been slain.]
Something strange.
[An ally has been slain.]
Started to become apparent.
[An enemy has been slain.]
“Wait… No, this Mungi guy is just… I feel bad saying this but… isn’t he a crazy dog?”
– Hahahahahahahahaha
– Wow but he really just flashes forward when he sees a kill opportunity
– His spacing is fucking good
– He sees kill opportunities beautifully, perfect damage timing
– But that’s about it
– Just looking at mechanics, he’s really fucking insane?
– He dodges all skillshots unless it’s complete bullshit, no joke
Whatever game you play, if you’re playing a PVP game, the way to be good at it is very simple in words.
‘Just dodge the enemy’s attacks and land my own attacks.’
But that’s easier said than done.
When it’s people playing against each other, how could you possibly dodge every single skill from your opponent?
No matter how much you predict, there are clear limits that inevitably come.
But there were people who pushed those limits to the extreme.
“You take the skills you have to take, but you absolutely dodge the ones you can avoid. Wait, what? Is this a pro? Former pro? How can someone with 2000 Silver games be a former pro?”
People called them pros.
Jeon Jin-su was now sensing a strong pro aura from Mungi’s gameplay.
“You can’t dodge every skill, because then you’d have to stay way back there. But if an ADC gets that scared, you can’t win 5v5 fights, so positioning is important.”
In that regard, Mungi showed perfection.
But if you asked whether everything was truly perfect, that wasn’t the case either.
“His game sense is really Silver level.”
– For real
– But seriously, he just walks into areas with no vision without any thought
– Then when skills suddenly come flying, he reacts and dodges them
– Is this really Lu Bu? Both his body and intelligence are like Lu Bu
His ability to read the overall flow of the game was quite poor.
That made it feel even more bizarre.
It was like a machine designed to inevitably kill opponents when they’re in front of him.
When he sees an enemy ahead, he attacks first > When the enemy tries to attack, he dodges > He does his best to kill the enemy > He doesn’t think about what comes after and dies.
This process was repeating infinitely throughout the game.
“No, he’s really like a primitive man. He goes and kills what’s in front, and dies when enemies come from behind.”
– Hahahahahahahaha
– Really fucking simple
“But it feels like he’s refined it to the extreme? You know what I mean? So this… I understand why he’s Silver. If you play like this in low tiers, obviously no one can support you. Look at Jin Yu-jeong playing support. The ADC’s tempo is just way too fast. It’s like everyone else is riding carriages while he’s alone in an F1 car.”
– For real
– He just seems obsessed with fighting
– Does he not feel pressure?
– Laughing lol the game is just good
“So it’s really funny, but the ADC is leading the fighting tempo… so naturally the team just adapted to the ADC.”
Solo games and team games are different.
And when multiple people are watching that team game, the story changes again.
The pressure that you might get flamed if you make a mistake.
The fear of being pointed at by an unspecified number of people.
The moment you become conscious of that, your original gameplay doesn’t come out.
The current viewer count on Dal-geun’s broadcast was about 30,000.
Despite this many people watching the game of 5 players.
[An enemy has been slain.]
[Double Kill]
[Triple Kill]
[Quadra Kill]
“Penta penta penta penta penta penta penta!!!”
“Mungi sir! I’ll tank for you! Get the penta!”
“I’m definitely getting penta no matter what… Agh! Aah! Why is the turret so strong!”
Even the in-game voice chat was giving off seriously concerning vibes.
“Ah, I died. Whatever.”
[An ally has been slain.]
I thought he was just completely insane.
Could it be because it’s a scrim?
‘No, this is just how this person really is.’
Absolutely not.
This person would probably act exactly the same way during tournaments.
“This… I’ll need to give different feedback.”
Insane aggression, someone obsessed with fighting – it’s impossible to correct someone like this.
Feedback? How exactly would I do that?
‘Try dying less… that’s not really feedback.’
A Silver ADC is tap dancing while holding a Log.
What kind of feedback could I possibly give for that?
17/11/4
A catastrophic KDA.
A player who thinks that if 99 goals are scored against you, you just need to score 100 to win.
That was exactly who Mungi was.
– If the ADC plays like that, you have to follow
– Gotta keep the prince happy ah lol
– But honestly everyone probably feels good? Mungi’s taking some of the pressure off
– For real
– When someone’s openly taking charge like that, it does make playing easier
– Plus except during fights there’s no micro-managing, he probably knows his game sense isn’t great
– Every time he has flash up he’s like “I have flash, mid let’s group” < this is fucking hilarious lololol
– He’s just completely crazy for fighting
He really does have insanely good fight timing though.
But still, team games can’t be won by one person alone.
Due to his jungle and mid teammates suddenly getting caught, Mungi’s team began falling behind rapidly.
They lost all the major objectives that determine victory – Baron and Dragon.
In the blink of an eye, their Nexus exploded.
“Wow, that’s unfortunate. We would’ve won if we had won the Smite fight, or if we’d played calmly and not died to their surprise attack.”
– For real
– Times like this really get to ADC players emotionally
– I dealt 50k damage by myself but we’re still gonna lose ㅠㅠ
Unlike Jeon Jin-su’s broadcast where disappointed chats were flowing.
Dal-geun’s broadcast chat room was in complete chaos.
– I’m
– Done
– Quit playing Mipo
– Quit Canyon
– Quit gaming
– Why are you even playing?
– I have no idea what you were playing for
– So frustrating, so frustrating
– What is this lol
– Acting all cocky and then throwing away a won game lol
– I was going to let it slide since it’s just the first game but honestly this is a bit much
– This is disgusting
– Championship contender? You said you formed a team to win, not for broadcast content lol
– Would someone like that buy a Silver ADC? Just obsessed with kill-stealing and no decisiveness
– Jungle and Mid got caught but ADC gets the blame lol The simps are rushing to shield their favorite female streamer, so pathetic
– For real, what’s Mipo supposed to do in a 3v5, did the kids just stand in a line to get hit by all the ultimates?
30,000 people began pouring out criticism as if they had made a pact.
“No, wait everyone… This is just the first game, don’t be too harsh… We’re planning to do several scrimmages today so please just watch for now.”
With Dal-geun’s quick intervention, the chat room atmosphere quickly died down.
In fact, it had to.
They were just throwing stones because it was the right timing to throw stones.
The viewers also knew well that this was the first game and understood that this was the process of getting in sync.
But.
[Defeat.]
[Defeat.]
[Defeat.]
When they came to their senses, they were on the verge of a 4-game losing streak.
– I’m
– Done
– I’m
– Done
– What the hell are you doing?
– Why are Mid and Jungle throwing so hard
– Does it make sense that Silver is playing the best?
– Even if Silver handles teamfights, shouldn’t the higher tier players be making the calls?
– Not worth the price, not worth it
Now that a perfect opportunity to throw stones had arrived, viewers began pouring out criticism.
Playing one game, giving feedback, then playing again.
When each game takes about an hour, showing nothing but losses for 4 straight hours like that.
Honestly, even from Dal-geun’s perspective, it was hard to keep covering for them.
“No, but seriously… why is this… the feedback keeps being useless… ah.”
It was understandable that he’d be frustrated.
Low-tier games are simple, so focus on objectives that affect victory.
Lane management is important too, but ultimately fights decide the outcome – he’d told them this so many times.
Before fights break out, the jungler is always somewhere with no objectives spawning.
And mid keeps wandering around alone and getting picked off repeatedly.
“Seong-ju and Loro-pam… why are both of you doing this? I mean, if it’s exactly the same as 4 hours ago, then the feedback was meaningless.”
He didn’t want to be harsh, but eventually had no choice.
“I’m sorry.”
“I’ll try to be more careful.”
After the repeated apologies, they played 2 more consecutive scrims.
[Defeat]
[Defeat]
They ended up setting the grand record of 6 scrims, 0 wins, 6 losses.
– Reverse sweep lol
– But Mungi keeps trying to look for fights
– His fight tempo seems too fast
– Then match the fast guy’s pace lol when fights break out everyone follows
– No, they know Mungi is good so everyone targets Mungi, why isn’t anyone besides support protecting him
– For real
– Protect the ADC a bit
Even the tired viewers were now throwing advice-laden comments instead of just stones.
“What exactly is the problem… my advice can’t be that ridiculous, so why…”
When Dal-geun genuinely couldn’t understand and made a complaint-filled remark.
“It, it’s not that.. *sob*… *sniff*…”
“I’m, I’m really sorry…”
– Oh what’s with the crying
– Crying for victory is crazy
– They just cry at everything
– Anyone would think they got personally insulted
– They’re just losing and clearly the culprit, so crying? This is fucking annoying
Tears began welling up in the eyes of jungler Seong-ju and mid Loro-pam, who had been on the verge of crying for a while.
“Uh, uhh…”
Dal-geun, who had been broadcasting for a long time but had the habit of lagging whenever women cried, was flustered.
While thinking he needed to cover for this situation immediately.
‘How should I handle this most cleanly?’
He felt bewildered by the suddenly unfolding situation.
Despite his long broadcasting experience, the field of ‘women’s tears’ was not Dal-geun’s area of expertise.
– Stop crying already
– Dal-geun, just send them out first and restart
– Tell them to go outside and cry
And right at that moment.
An expert in ‘women’s tears’ stepped forward.
“Crying when being scolded is really… Are you crying just to end the situation? Trying to finish the feedback with tears… It’s like Mungks stopping the final showdown.”
Mungi’s comment that suddenly popped out.
– ?
– Mungi?
– ?
– What does that even mean
– ?
– Hahahahahahahahahaha
– Huh?
– What?
At that comment, including the viewers.
Everyone in the training camp except Mungi was startled and looked at him.
“The reason I silently watched the games for 6 rounds was… to understand this team’s, how should I put it… algorithm? That kind of thing. Coach Dal-geun, I’ve reached a conclusion.”
“Hey, you can’t just suddenly reach a conclusion. But since you have one, let’s hear it.”
“I think we need some discipline. The team’s morale is… I’ve finished establishing the hierarchy, but it seems the discipline is still lacking.”
“What?”
“They’re crying but not even doing a 3-way split camera… All of this shows the basics aren’t there. My Support Jin Yu-jeong has none of these issues! She even really brought lemon water!”
– Wait, did you actually bring it? hahahahahahahahaha
– Lemon water < Why is he so obsessed with this
– This guy just likes lemon water lol
The viewers witnessed the mysterious situation where the tense atmosphere instantly lightened.
Just moments ago when the women were crying, everyone was dejected.
But as soon as Mungi said a few words, the atmosphere kept livening up.
“From what I see, the problem seems to stem from not really thinking of me as Mungmayusi. Is it because I’m Silver? The way they treat the ADC prince is… quite unsatisfactory.”
“Mungi, so what’s your conclusion…?”
“It’s exactly 2 AM right now, isn’t it? Time for late-night snacks? So as punishment, I’d like Jungle and Mid… that is, Seong Yeop-ju and Loro-pam to make some jeyuk and… ahem, boiled pork.”
Then suddenly at the mention of cooking food, the Jungle and Mid players’ eyes widened.
Cook food?
He must be joking, right?
Such thoughts were fleeting.
“For the jeyuk, use front leg meat, there’s a lot of good stuff on YouTube… Um, for the boiled pork, they say gabrisal boiled pork is delicious, you know? So… along with cheese bomb steamed egg… please prepare a full meal with brown rice.”
Mungi said this with complete sincerity.
And he continued speaking.
“From what I can see, all these problems stem from being hungry. And… honestly, the viewers are kind of arousing.”
“Huh, what?”
– Suddenly
– Hahahahahahaha shit
– Why are we arousing
– Is it Mungiroyim? Too much testosterone so everyone except himself looks like a woman?
– You got eaten by Mung!!!
– Did Mungttameogi get eaten by Mungi lol
– But why though
– That’s fucking scary lololololololol
“If we end up winning, you’ll all be super happy again, right? Like at first you’re all grumpy, but later you just blush and love it to death… Should I call it like a tsundere heroine, lewdly just uhh. When we’re losing, you criticize me more than anyone… but eventually when we’re winning, you smile brightly and welcome me… I’m drooling just talking about it.”
– Ugh, damn it hahahahahaha
– Mungi Mungi, what the hell are you even saying
– Hahahahahahahahaha
– Every single thing he says is just extraordinary
– So right now he’s just looking at us going “hell hell” as cute?
– Giga-mungi is just crazy
A series of shocking statements.
Maybe it was because he had a face and body that could cover whatever he said.
Dal-geun just couldn’t stop laughing.
“Pfft… kek… Wait, are you serious about that?”
“Director, after all this hell talk… anyway, I’ll turn all the viewers’ mockery into cheers.”
So ladies, feel free to prepare the front leg pork stir-fry, gabrisal boiled pork, and cheese bomb steamed egg.
“Ah, Jin Yu-jeong.”
“Yes?”
“Could I get a refill of lemon water please.”
“Oh, yes…”
“And our reliable top Ssan-muk!”
“Yes, yes!”
“We men can just sit here like kings. Let’s stretch our legs and relax.”
– Hahahahahahahahaha
– Crazy bastard
– Can such words really come out of a human mouth?
– Wow but the girls could have gotten hate but they immediately changed the atmosphere, respect
– Mungtakgi’s performance is just insane
– When this guy gets in the zone, it’s just ridiculous
– This is what you call the hope episode lololololol
– What we need right now is Mung Kiss
– Mung Kiss *3*
– Deep Mung Kiss =3=
Dal-geun realized as he watched this entire situation unfold.
This team absolutely had to revolve around Mungi.
Otherwise, there would be no answer.
‘There’s just one superstar here.’
At the same time, Dal-geun.
‘…Ah, I really want to keep watching Mungi.’
began to feel attached to Mungi like a comfort doll.
To think someone with such broadcast appeal had been hiding all this time.
Ah, couldn’t he just keep broadcasting with me only?
+++++
I could see the Chat Room atmosphere improving in real time.
Twitch twitch.
‘Hmm, the corners of my mouth won’t calm down.’
I was so happy at this moment I felt like I could go crazy.
Was it because I was doing well or changing the viewers’ mood? No, that wasn’t it.
‘To think I’d get to say that line myself.’
Twitch twitch.
The corners of my mouth won’t calm down.
‘Eat boiled pork… and give final feedback, it’ll end around 4 AM? Then sleep and wake up… go work out.’
After composing myself and checking my remaining schedule.
Clink.
With perfect timing.
“Mungi, here’s your water.”
As soon as the lemon water arrived.
“Thank you.”
I leisurely drank the lemon water.
This is the ADC prince.
Is this the life that the ADC prince of Mud War gets to enjoy?
‘I won’t send anyone to hell… I’ll do my best so everyone can play with smiles.’
Since it’s a team game, there will naturally be culprits, and someone specific will inevitably get blamed.
But it was fine.
Since I just need to carry anyway.
Besides, I still had a secret trump card hidden away.
A hidden Joker Pick that I haven’t even told the coach about.
An Awl in the Pocket to instantly change these screams heard during scrims.
‘I’ll bring that out during the tournament.’
Now then, until I perform in the tournament.
Should I properly establish some team discipline.
