Chapter 25: Why does it end so quickly!

The moment the game starts.

The first thing to do is to defend our jungle.

If the opponent secretly enters the Twisted Treeline in each camp, they could deal a fatal blow in the early game, and above all, if the hunter’s path is read, it will be difficult for the laners.

Because the opponent doesn’t need to distinguish between bluff and reality in our movements.

“Let’s go. Everyone, go in.”

But despite such problems, we gave up defense and aggressively entered the opponent’s upper Twisted Treeline.

[Huh? Are they going all the way up?]

[DS Gaming didn’t notice! There’s no vision up there, so DS Gaming’s hunter, Vita, is defenseless!]

It’s the first game, and it’s the opening match.

It was obvious that both we and the other side would bring out champions that fit the meta to some extent and that they were confident in, and the ban-picks were as expected, so it wasn’t difficult to predict the opponent’s hunter’s path.

[Vita is approaching the bush where the ST players are hiding!]

There’s no need to wait for the opponent to stop moving.

“Now!”

Starting with the first stun from our team’s support, Bell, the opponent died standing.

Of course, I got the last hit.

[Argh! DS Gaming’s in trouble just one minute after it started!]

[DS Gaming’s basic game plan is to trust one AD Carry and hold on until the late game, but if there’s such a growth difference from the beginning, it’ll be too painful to reach the late game!]

I immediately recall.

I’ll give up level 2, but there’s no problem with not getting experience or minion kill gold.

[I just looked it up, and ST’s number of invades in last season’s games is zero.]

[Zero?]

[Yes. Zero. Not lying, really zero. There are none at all.]

[DS Gaming was a bit complacent, but seeing these statistics, it’s understandable that they didn’t even think about invading.]

It’s not a tactic that will work twice, but the important thing is to win now.

So I returned to our nexus, bought items, and ran to the lane.

[The Master League, which starts off hot from the opening match, all the players have arrived at their respective positions, and the minions are forming lanes.]

[ST Gaming needs to use the lane priority since the mid laner, True, got the first kill and bought items at home.]

[That’s right. Conversely, DS Gaming has to be careful. If they slip up more here, there’s no going back!]

In the mid lane, both the opponent and I picked magic damage-based champions with mobility, following the recent meta.

Since I was the first pick, I chose an assassin champion among them who was well-regarded.

Since I use shurikens, I have a minimum of ranged response, and since I have stealth using smoke, if I go to the late game, I can at least do aggro ping-pong once or twice.

And the opponent is a champion whose main attack skill is throwing barrels.

The matchup itself isn’t bad because I can gain an advantage in the deal exchange if I avoid the barrel thrown on the ground by using the movement speed buff, which is an additional effect of the smoke, but since the cooldown of the smoke skill is longer than the opponent’s main skill, the one-on-one matchup is even.

But once I get some items, unless I build tank items, I’m the one who breaks through the matchup.

Well, this is only when we’re laning one-on-one or meeting on the side, and in teamfights, that champion was perfect for the opposing team, who had to protect the AD Carry from me.

Besides, in reality, there’s the hunter’s gank, so strictly speaking, the time to play one-on-one wasn’t very long.

—Like now.

[They’re ganking after only getting to level 3!]

[True pushed the lane faster thanks to the items, but Vita doesn’t miss it!]

[There’s been some deal exchange, are they going to fistfight!]

I deliberately left out the smoke to call for a gank, so the only movement skill I can use in this breath is throwing a shuriken and falling back.

“From now on, just clear out the opponent’s jungle.”
“Support?”
“There’s no angle to die.”
“Okay.”

I gave the order, quickly switched to first-person, watched the opponent’s hunter charging while stretching his fist back, and leisurely fell back while throwing a shuriken at the barrel coming from the side.

[Huh? This shuriken hits?]

[Is she pretending to fall back and looking for something else?]

I check the opponent’s hunter throwing a fist without missing the timing when the movement skill is out, and I fly to the opponent who has been hit by using the shuriken skill again.

From this point on, there’s no need to use first-person.

Switch again at the moment of flying.

I put the combo that my body remembers into the opponent’s mid, and then the last auto-attack.

If you get hit when you’re neither dealing damage nor tanking, you should die.

So, after getting a kill on the opposing mid laner, I leisurely returned to my tower, used the smoke that had come off cooldown, and easily avoided the opponent’s team hunter’s follow-up attack.

[Here! The name of this player who looks at the reverse kill angle and leisurely survives is True!]

[Argh! What do we do about this!]

[It’s ruined. Their lives are just ruined.]

[Not to mention the mid, Ox completely cleared the lower Twisted Treeline of the opponent’s camp while True was doing a 2v1 dribble and getting a kill.]

[The CS difference between the hunters is three times. Three times.]

After that, well.

I roughly pushed the mid lane, and as soon as I reached level 6, I got another solo kill using the ultimate and item difference.

And immediately, Ox and I stabbed the opponent’s bottom lane with a gank.

[This is too cruel! You can’t do this!]

[You can.]

[There’s no ultimate, but just one skill cycle and the AD Carry disappears! That guy’s damage is strange!]

[If True gets those items at this time, she can do anything.]

[Argh! In the end, True’s double kill! DS Gaming’s strong bottom lane also falls!]

For reference, Fluke was already leading in the top lane by himself, widening the CS difference.

As expected, there’s no need to invest resources in the top lane.

He’s making that much on his own.

Anyway, with all lanes broken and the mid tower being pressured up to the 2nd tower, DS Gaming prepared for the last teamfight—

[Ah! They can’t get vision!]

[The support is cut, but they can’t back out here! They have to have a busted teamfight!]

It was already an advantageous situation, and we cut off the opponent’s support early.

There was no angle to lose, no matter how badly we fought.

0 to 5.

With a disastrous kill exchange ratio, we advanced to the mid lane with the minions.

[DS Gaming, who took a step into the Twisted Treeline based on a large monster! They are annihilated!]

[How do you stop this!]

[The fastest resurrection for DS Gaming is Dello, the support, but even that is ten seconds away!]

From the opponent’s tower to the inhibitor, and then to the tower again.

We pushed forward relentlessly and hit the exposed nexus, ignoring the opponent’s team support.

[No, why is this ending so quickly!]

[It’s only been twenty minutes, twenty minutes!]

[The DS Gaming players will be out soon, but can they stop this even if they come out?]

Displaying the ST logo on the champion, I made the last auto-attack on the nexus.

[Ah! It ends like this!]

[It’s different from last season! The revival of a prestigious family! ST roars and quickly wins the first game, the first set of the opening match!]

[GG!]

This is the game.

ST3’s record of not missing the bottom of last season.

Anyway, ST, which is called a prestigious family in the professional gamer scene.

And the existence of True itself.

These three things became a trinity, and the community gallery was overflowing with people watching the Master League opening match.

The aftermath after the end of the game was that big.

—2 : 0 Shutdown

└Only those who don’t want to live can do it

—(1st set_highlight)
I thought she failed the mind game to avoid the fist, but she immediately put in a full combo and killed him
└Is that a kill angle?
└If the opponent had used a potion a little earlier, he would have survived with one tick left
└It’s luck
└Lucky
└It’s an amazing kill angle because she caught him~
└Yeah, no matter how much you guys try to downplay it, she’s already POM
└ST3’s savior…the god of normalization…worship…

└Wow, but True is giving all the orders
└Ox, you bstard, played without a brain last season, but there was a reason why you were good today
└He didn’t equip a brain, he borrowed it
└lololol
└A guy who said that brain power would work in LOCK too, but he temporarily equipped it
└So scary
└The order to end it at the end was so accurate
└Actually, if it was a little late, it would have been ambiguous, everyone was below half health, so they could have been surrounded
└In the meantime, she’s so pretty when she’s concentrating on catching the reverse kill angle
└Hmph
└Noona, take me
└She’ll probably pierce you with a shuriken
└lololol
