Chapter 5 – 5. You Are Garbage (2)

After the general game with the players, I said goodbye to them lightly and finished practicing.
Because it was our first meeting, we did not give feedback or interview.

After all, these were the children I would meet from today onwards.
There was no need to rush.

Moreover, today is a day of great change for the players and for me.
It would be better to take a break and sort out your thoughts.

I returned to my lodgings.

The parent company, Phone Company, obtained two 3-room lodgings for the gaming team.

Currently, the first dorm is Ryu Seo-ah, the one-dealer, Baek Ha-yan, the support, and Kang Yul, the top laner.
The other two players were not at home.

The second quarter is completely empty.
I decided to live there.

When I unlocked the door and went inside, I was greeted by an empty space with only basic appliances.
After unpacking my luggage, I immediately opened my laptop and took out the players’ profiles.

‘Shall we review the player profile?’

It was the profile of the players I had seen enough of yesterday, but it was unreasonable to grasp everything in just one day.
Today, I decided to analyze my players and dig down every single hair.

‘First, the top laners.’

Arena is a game played by five players.
They are usually called top laner, jungler, mid laner, AD, and support in that order.

I decided to look at our team’s top laner, Kang Yul.

Tall, over 173 cm.
He had a big body, but his proportions made him look like a model.
Her face looked pretty innocent, but there was a glimmer of melancholy.

And this is her status window that I saw this afternoon.

[Kang Yul
Nickname: Carrywoman
Tier: Diamond 4
Most Pick: Hercules, Hyeonmu, Jeopalgye

Obedience: 5
Growth rate: 0%

Physical : 8
Mental: 13
Stamina: 13

The pro gamer’s nickname is Carrywoman.
She is 24 years old, the same age as me.

Looking at the tier system in the arena in the order of Bronze-Silver-Gold-Platinum-Diamond-Master-Challenger, it was embarrassing to even call Kang Yul, who is in the 4th tier of diamonds, a pro.

Furthermore, the 4th level of diamond drops to platinum even if it is lowered by only one tier.
That’s the level of ordinary people who are good at games.

I took a look at her career so far.

Surprisingly, she debuted at the same time as me.
When her first official tournament was held after Arena started service, she started her professional career soon after.

This meant that she had been playing her arena since her beta days.
She was more of a veteran gamer than I thought.

However, her performance as a progamer was disastrous compared to mine.

Her nickname is Carrywoman, after the nickname of Carryman, the most famous professional gamer in Arena.
And the first team she joined was a low-ranking team that moved around the second division at the time.

It was clear to her eyes how she would have been treated, even if she wasn’t there.

‘The female professional gamer title looked good, so I signed up for the first time.’

She is a good female gamer, and her nickname is also a female version of a popular pro gamer.
I was probably attracted to aggro.

But in the end it’s there.
As her form gradually declined, she was released from the team.

‘And then she moved her team five times in four years. She came all the way from only playing for low-ranking teams.’

It was a sad professional life.

Just like her game team who accepted her and threw away her honeydew, she only used her as an issue and released her after one season.
And finally, when she was no longer attracted by her aggro, she even came to our team, a new team in the third division.

Anyway, her face is smooth and her body and height are great, so it was a passing point for her visual team, the Pink Angels.

I went to an internet community site that talks about arena competitions and searched for her nickname.

– There was a show called Carry Woman in the past, what are you doing now?
– Carrie woman? Carrieman fake? Nickname is fucking rough haha
– He hasn’t retired yet?
– It’s a girl who moved only the team more than 5 times lol Isn’t there a place that accepts it now?
– I cheered for him because he was tall and pretty, but it was just a half-bandor before the line.
– Don’t mention sediment.

It seems that there is not much interest now, and even in the community that talks about players all day, it has hardly been mentioned.

After lightly scraping her information about her, I moved on to her next player.

This time, it’s time to look at the team’s jungler, Lee Ji-hye.

An intelligent image.
She always wore her hair in a plait and draped it behind her and wore her glasses.
Although she was a pro gamer, she displayed a dispassionate attitude throughout the game.

Judging by his attitude, it seemed that even pro gamers did not become what he wanted. Even when Ryu Seo-yoon and I were fighting, he didn’t seem to be interested, so he said everything.

Perhaps today, if she had sought her instead of Seoyoon Ryu, she would have quit her professional gamer career without hesitation.

At the bottom of her profile, “Speciality: Poor” Was written.

I then opened her status window.

[Lee Ji-hye
Nickname: Wisdom
Tier: Platinum 1

The pro gamer’s nickname is Wisdom, which is a direct translation of her name.
He was a young 20-year-old and the youngest member of our team.

Tear was miserable.
Platinum 1 was a tier you would never have as a pro.

However, as I guessed through the overall high stats, it was not that I couldn’t raise the tier, but I could see that it was just that I didn’t raise it.
It is a material that will surely become a great player if you instill passion for the game.

Searching the community by her nickname did not yield much information.
It was a natural result since the Pink Angels were the first team.

No matter how popular the game is, there were few people who carefully looked after the 3rd division.

– Who are these players?
– He’s a tier 3 player. A new girl is coming.
– You’d look prettier if you took off your glasses. Why don’t you take them off?
– I’m sealing my appearance so that I won’t be sexually harassed by a kid like you.

Mostly, there was only talk about appearance, but it seemed that there was no interest in game play.

Scraping her information about her as well, she moved on to mid laner.

The midline position, the pillar and waist of the team.
As it is in the center of the battlefield, it is an easy position to influence the entire line, and teams with excellent mid laners used to show strong early power struggles.

As it is a line with many characters with fancy skill sets, it is the most popular and has many star players.

Han Yuna, our team’s mid laner, although she has a gorgeous appearance and body suitable for mid lane. She is 170 cm tall and has a cool look. Her big mids are her biggest strength.

In addition, since the words ‘from an idol’ are embedded in the special information, it is obvious how much she will attract aggro to the game industry.

I looked at the status window.

[Yuna Han
Nickname: Luna
Tier: Platinum 2
Most Pick: Zeus, Hyeonmu, Umawang

Obedience: 0
Growth rate: 0%

Her in-game nickname is Luna.

As expected, it is a stat for a game tier that is not special.
A player who would be embarrassed to be called a mid laner.

Most Pick also focuses on simple and honest characters, not flashy and complicated characters.
In other words, it means that she has preferred to play with a strong character rather than an assassin-type character, the flower of mid laners, and choose a tower-hugging game.

I don’t know why a former idol suddenly became a pro gamer.
On the surface, he doesn’t seem to be very interested in the game.

Poor tier and cold passion that I want to be unburnt.
Is there a gaming team like us or a place that accepts it?

22 years old.
Naturally, the Pink Angels were my first team in my professional gamer career.
Because the only place that accepts this kind of mid is our team, which is a 3rd division team!

– Recognized as a mid laner
– These days, do you pick the mid line by looking at the mid line?
– She is from a girl group called Galactica.
– I wrote the name as it was when I was in a girl group
– Why are you a pro gamer?

Public opinion was generally unfavorable.
Of course, he doesn’t have the skills to become a pro gamer, but he was the mid laner who received the most attention among all positions, so he couldn’t look good.

In the past, the comment section of the contest she participated in was full of sarcastic comments.

– Hyeji team mid laner Bom? This is why I don’t use female gamers haha
– Is this guy a pro? Contest is ruined
– Passed as my girlfriend candidate
– If it’s a team made by a porn company, does this guy also film porn?

Viral marketing, her father’s intention her, turned out to be a complete success.

I turned off the comment window I couldn’t bear to see and moved on to the next player.

This time, it was Ryu Seo-yoon, a one-dealer who had fun selling today.

Although he is a bit shorter than the average female, he always showed confident eyes and energy.

If it weren’t for the coach-athlete relationship, she would have felt like a playful little sister. She is also 20 years old, and like Jihye Lee, she was in the youngest position.

[Ryu Seo-yoon

Her her Pink Angels are her her second team her for her.

At least she had a record of being active in the former team, so she had information in her community of her.

– Was he released from Cosplay Cats?
– The physical is good, but I don’t use it because I don’t have a brain
– No, no. It’s because he is it’s an extreme original character. I don’t know how to do anything other than Artemis
-During the game, it was cute how his face stiffened while taking the capsule in.Haha.
– Now I’m in the 3rd division. Already obsolete. Goodbye Seoyoon Ryu.

A cold evaluation followed.
Physicality was obviously a very important factor in the progamer scene, but that does not mean that excellent physicality unconditionally leads to victory.

In particular, players like Ryu Seo-yoon, who couldn’t show themselves properly on stage, would change hands quickly.
This is because young players with excellent physicals were pouring out every year, and Ryu Seo-yoon’s physicals only had to deteriorate as he got older.

Lastly, it was our turn to look at our team’s supporter, White Baek.

He is 21 years old, a year older than his youngest in line.
However, her looks and behavior make it safe to say that she is her youngest child her.

Half curly hair. Cute, plump cheeks and soft, pure white skin.
There was no corner with a fresh appearance and a kind and bright personality that seemed to be loved wherever he went.

If it were n’t for her her terrible game skills, she would have been a worthwhile player to teach.

[White

Most Pick: Hermes, Aphrodite, Saojeong

Obedience: 10

Her in-game nickname is White.
Mental, stamina, and cooperative power were high, but the physical and judgmental skills, which can be seen as having a direct impact on game play, were at an inferior level.

In particular, the physical that is known to be innate was not even amateur level.
I could see where the low rank of Platinum Tier 4 came from.

Naturally, she is new to our team.
Who will accept Platinum Tier 4 support?
There will be no teams like us who are crazy about their visuals.

– Wow, I really can’t. Is this pro?
– Shit, I just watched the play and threw my eyes away. This is why they say to skip the 3rd divisionhaha
– It’s definitely,,, it’s like my daughter,,, it’s nice to see it~~ I always support you~!~~!@@
– This guy is really good at fishery management. It looks like a rabbit, but it feels like a fox~ haha
-He looks so damn cute, but his body is crazy

As expected, even in the community, half of the posts were cursing about skills, and the rest were all about looks and body shape.

The specific thing mentioned in the profile is about the ‘rich man’s house’.
I don’t know how rich I am, but I don’t think there will be any problems with making a living even if I quit being a pro gamer.

After looking at the community reactions of all the players, I got up and stretched my body.
If you sit too long, the spine fairy might come for revenge. You should also stretch occasionally.

Worries ran through my head.
Looking back, it was a composition of players whose answer was not visible.
From the top to the supporters, everything is trash.

No matter how much he awakened the coaching system, he wondered if it was right to raise them.
Wouldn’t it be better to scout other female players?

All kinds of worries made me suffer.

Just then, the bell at the front door rang.
When I saw the face of the person who turned on the intercom and rang the bell, I smiled with delight without knowing it.

Standing in front of the front door was Ryu Seo-yoon with a nervous face.
