Chapter 348 – 348. ACK Finals (4)

Mad Tiger Gaming captured the Oni that SU wanted in the second set.
Oni itself wasn’t an OP character in the current meta, so I had a chance to pick it as a whoopic.

“Oni!! Oni is here! SU’s Oni has been very famous since the amateur days?!”
“Can you use your strength against Sia’s Susaono?”

Thanks to this, a match between characters commonly called bug characters was completed in mid-air.
It was a close match in which an opponent who had grown up even if he sold his eyes for just one moment got a kill.

SU players were more focused than ever on the game.

Now is the time to prove yourself by defeating your opponent.
The world championship was already confirmed, and so far, they showed their skills by beating many other teams.

However, winning the summer season and finishing runner-up was the difference between heaven and earth.
It is because whether or not a championship trophy is added to the club lobby has changed.

KANG, KANG, KANG!

SU’s Oni and Sia’s Susaono’s sword collided several times.
Oni was a character who maintained the line through blood vampirism, and Susaono was a character who aimed for a kill angle with an instantaneous burst of damage.

So, the way Oni defeated Susaono was very simple.

Instead of being hit by the opponent’s skill, it constantly sucks blood and stays attached to the line.

Oni was basically a no-cost character.
On the other hand, Susaono in the early stages is a character who quickly runs out of mana after using several skills, so it was advantageous to use it whenever the skill cooldown turns and exchange blood and deals.

SU steadily accumulated blood vampirism and skill stacks while using skills on the line.

Kwareung!

Just then, the opponent approaches you to exchange deals with the sound of lightning.

I didn’t have the stamina to get one-comed because there were more creeps.
Judging that she was worthy enough, SU boldly confronted her and fought.

She dodges Susaono’s sword and swings her own sword.
The first deal exchange seemed to work well in its own way.

Now that he has used up all his skills, he just needs to fall back and wait for the cooldown to return.

I thought.

Kwareung!

Lightning strikes again.
Susaono’s sword landed on his back as he fell backwards.

It happened because Susaono’s movement speed was a little faster.

The oni’s advantage was vampirism, so if you get hit one more time and fall out, you could see that you lost the deal exchange.
So the moment the cooldown expired, he turned around again.

Kwareung!

But this time, the distance was narrow, so I couldn’t feed the attack properly.
I chased a little more with regret, and the opponent’s turn approached.

Likewise, Sia player responds to the fight by swishing and turning around.
I tried to flow the attack smoothly like the first time, but it wasn’t easy.

Eventually, his health is less than 10% and he falls behind the tower.

Fire.

Even an ignition spell is used on him who runs away.

Should I say I’m lucky?
He didn’t have enough stamina to die from ignition, so if he fell like this, he would take out one of the opponent’s spells.

‘I need to go home quickly and then return to the line.’

Sia was pushing the line at a terrifying speed.
Knowing that he was going home, it seemed that he was determined to burn even one more creep by quickly pushing the line to manage mana or something.

He opened the shop window and immediately selected an item to purchase.
And that moment.
The bird turns white before my eyes and my body spins around.

‘Uh?’

I just briefly opened the shop window and checked the items.
However, due to that brief moment, he met death.

Watching the replay through the kill cam, I saw Wisdom, the opponent’s jungler, using his blink to get kills quickly.
After that, I hit the tower with all my might with Sia pushing the line.

There was only one thought while watching the tower’s health that dropped to less than half in an instant and the line getting stuck.

Ruined.

###

A continuous wall.

Like anyone who plays AOS games, that’s how I feel when I lose a game.

‘This edition just didn’t flow well. Now I know what to do. The next edition will be different.’

Then, you run the next cue, but you often get a result that is not very different from the previous one.

It was the same with SU.
It’s not easy to turn around after the in-game situation becomes unfavorable, so I thought it would be worth it if I just started from the beginning.
However, when the 3rd set started, the flow was no different from the 1st and 2nd sets.

Battle Angels are putting pressure on Mad Tiger Gaming with clean play.

Even if you poke around, you don’t think about making a mistake.
On the other hand, their team started to falter mercilessly after several operations failed.

If I lost this set, I would hand over the championship, so I was playing as carefully as I could, but the gap widened considerably just by being bitten.
The seasoned Battle Angels reverse hooked and entrapped Mad Tiger Gaming players who were anxious to do something.

Sia, who is agile, first walked into the bush pretending to fall into a trap and leisurely evaded the attack.

Even so, he narrowly shook off the pursuit and escaped, but his morale had already fallen to the bottom for a long time.

[Mad Tiger Gaming is scared and runs away.]
[Let’s fight cool. The difference only widens because you give it a hundred days.]
[Mad Tiger has fallen this far? Why do you think you can’t do this?]
[It’s frustrating, it’s frustrating]

Fans of Mad Tiger Gaming poured out dissatisfied chats as scenes of walking on thin ice continued.

Seeing him staring at me all day in fear of losing a lot, I wished he would fight hotly even if he lost.

And before long, even such hopeful torture disappears neatly.

Mad Tiger Gaming’s top liner, Carryman, chased after God Dog while boldly attempting a deal exchange.
In an instant, the jungler joined, the mid laner came to support, and the fight started to grow as the supporters came up.

The balance of power tilted when Sia succeeded in catching the carryman in a frantic fight.

As the fleeing Mad Tiger Gaming players fell down one by one, only the mid laner, SU, remained.

A message that comes to mind at the same time.

Right after everyone left, an incident broke out in the bottom where they were fighting a solo line battle.
Ryu got a solo kill on a psychic player.

[Done!! Haha!! Lol]
[Mad Tiger Gaming perishes like a dog haha]
[Psychic’s real form is dead.]
[Is this a true story about the three generations? Are the three rice cakes a true story? Is it a true story of the three rice cakes?]
[Eh… I knew it would be like this. If this is the case, try fighting coolly from the beginning.]
[LOL] I can feel the level difference.

The game isn’t over yet, but most people feel that the winner has been decided.

And after a while, as expected by many, the Battle Angels succeed in taking the trophy with their own hands by breaking the opposing team’s core.

###

A summer season win followed by an ACK spring season win.
All that was left was winning the World Championship.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that if they could win the World Championship, they would have won all the trophies they could get in a year.

‘It reminds me of the old days.’

Mad Tiger Gaming had the same results when it first started.

A spring season win followed by a summer season win.
And I almost won the first World Championship.

It failed then, but this time it will be different.

I looked at the players returning to the waiting room.

All of them, with flushed faces, looked as if they couldn’t believe what they had achieved.

They slowly came out and approached Hwang Ji-yeon.
The first to speak was Kang Yul, who was not participating today.

“…It feels like a dream. To think that our team, which was in the 3rd division, would lift the trophy twice in a row… “

It was Ryu Seo-yoon who received her disbelief.

“Me too! I really didn’t expect to win like this and become this strong.”

It’s been almost two years since I’ve been running like crazy.
It reminds me of the countless hardships and adversity that I went through with my children.
Of course, what came to mind the most was the days when I mixed flesh with them!

Lee Ji-hye added one more word.

“I knew it would be like this. Because the director was greedy, I thought he would try to have everything.”

Is it a compliment?
Lee Ji-ah also nodded her head, and she stayed right next to her.

Seeing that, Han Yuna giggled and smiled.

“You will also have the World Championship trophy, right?”

That was natural.
One runner-up as a player.
One win as a bench member.
And as a manager, I wanted to lift the championship trophy once again.

“…I’ll be sure to win the World Champion trophy as well!”

Baek Ha-yeon, seeing my eyes, squeezed her hands tightly with a determined expression.
But at that moment, a voice poured cold water on our heated atmosphere.

“What? Is everyone in the mood to say one word at a time? Why are you so uncharacteristically serious?”

Even without looking back, I could tell it was Heo Sook-hee.
Thanks to that, the warm atmosphere could not continue any longer.

Her children glared at her at the same time, but her reproach against her was put off until later thanks to her well-timed voice of her staff calling us.

“Battle Angels! Please gather in front of the winning trophy!”

It was an event that I had already done once during the spring season championship, but the summer season was different.
After all, the highlight of ACK was the summer season before the World Championships.

Thanks to that, the summer season was a little more flashy and popular.

I followed the players on the stage slowly.

The trophy in the center of the stage moved closer and closer.

“Please leave the trophy behind and stand around!”

The voice of the staff can be heard between the passionate voices of the commentators and casters.
The players accordingly stood in front of the trough.

“I will lift the trophy!”

And finally, the seven players gather to lift the trophy.

I stood behind them and applauded them.
You finally did it.

Looking at the seats, there were quite a few spectators left to watch the players.

Everyone was applauding and cheering as they watched us.

And after a while

“Director!”

I turned my head when I heard him calling me, and Kang Yul was approaching with a trophy.

“Here you go.”

The players had already taken all the highlights, and the audience and league officials had lost interest in the awards ceremony.
However, the seven players and coach Hwang Ji-yeon were looking at me and waiting for me to accept the trophy.

“Let’s go together.”

I slowly took over the trophy with Hwang Ji-yeon.
Thanks to this, I was able to see the letters that must have been hastily engraved on the trophy.

‘Battle Angels’

“How is it? Good mood?”

Hwang Ji-yeon, who is holding the trophy with me, asked a question.
Shrugging my shoulders, I replied with some embarrassment.

“Not too bad.”
