The Divine Genius’s Game Broadcasting Chapter 171

Episode 171 – What is compatibility (2)

People may have different reasons for playing games. However, if we were to pick out a common denominator among those differences, it would be 'fun'.

Of course, the concept of 'fun' itself is bound to be perceived differently from person to person.

This was because the fun pursued by players differed depending on the game genre.

'It's fun.'

Mystic League pro-gamer, Elephant. The fun he feels is also different from others.

Among all those games, the reason I prefer 'Mystic League', and among the many champions in that game, the reason I prefer 'carnivore jungler'.

'How long has it been since I felt like this?'

The fun he pursued came from ‘satisfying his competitive spirit.’

That was also the reason why Elephant had been suffering from 'steamy syndrome' before. His skills were growing day by day, but the opponents he faced were not able to meet his standards.

'This guy is real.'

But now it was different.

Just by facing off against Lee Kyung-bok, I felt like every cell in my body was awakened, and I finally felt like I was having a proper match.

Compared to this moment, even the 'real deal' I had been looking for so far seemed fake.

'If you let your guard down even for a little bit, you lose… …!'

The elephant focused all its attention on the opponent in front of it.

If you take your eyes off them even for a second, the game will be decided.

Because of this, the thought of giving orders and reading the map as a jungler had long since disappeared from his mind.

'This leisure is not an empty boast.'

That's why Elephant was able to examine Lee Kyung-bok in more detail. Unlike himself, he had a lot of free time.

That sight only fueled his competitive spirit. Why couldn't he push him away?

'Isn't my condition fully recovered yet?'

There was no way that could happen.

He knew his condition best. He could say with certainty that it was the best he had ever experienced, and that he had broken through the limits.

'Or is it a difference in experience?'

That was nonsense.

There's no way he, a streamer, would have played more Mystic League than a pro gamer.

Moreover, the champion he chose was not Yami, who he had played before, but Barzan.

'Then why on earth… …!'

He asked from afar.

Accordingly, the champion Ragnell also distorted his face and revealed his fangs.

What is this gap that is felt despite the numerous competitions?

'How could I not get hit even once… …!?'

The evidence was too clear to simply dismiss it as his feelings, because the gap was building up and showing up as a diminishing physical strength bar.

Unlike himself, Lee Kyung-bok's stamina bar was still full.

'If we continue like this, we will eventually lose.'

The time for retreat has already passed.

The moment he turned his back, defeat was certain.

Elephant realized that he had no choice but to make a bold move.

He took a deep breath.

Lee Kyung-bok's eyes opened wide for a moment, as if he sensed the change in his breathing.

'Now is the time!'

The elephant roared loudly. A beastly cry came out, completely different from his own voice.

It was the use of Claw Tracker Ragnell's skill 'Beast's Roar'.

'It went in properly!'

This skill affects the sense of balance of enemies within range and restores some of your own health.

Originally, it was better to save it since it was often used in Hanta, but now I was in no position to be picky.

'It's a reversal!'

A smile came to my face.

Perhaps because of the skill effect, Lee Kyung-bok's spear passed through his poor side.

The elephant took advantage of the gap and swung its claw.

"……uh?"

For a moment, his thoughts stopped.

Barzan, who should have been clearly in front, was not visible.

But he was a pro, and his mind automatically figured out the reason.

“I’m looking forward to seeing what the full condition will be like.”

A voice came from behind him, confirming his thoughts. Elephant didn't even bother to look back.

'It's not that I missed… … '

This was because the afterimage of Barzan appeared in front of him.

'I threw a window!'

Before I knew it, his position was in a straight line with the flag I had planted. I didn't notice it because I was so focused on my opponent.

He tried to avoid it as soon as he realized it, but it was no use. He was the one who tried not to distance himself from Lee Kyung-bok in order to gain the upper hand.

"and."

That's why he wasn't angry. What he let out in the floating feeling he felt while colliding with the afterimage was admiration.

“This is really awesome.”

The match has been decided.

He lost and the winner was his opponent.

[First Blood!]

[Perfect Play Tier1_Elephant]

As if to prove that fact, a system message appeared above the field of vision that had turned ashen.

After his death, he returned to his base and looked at his translucent body and let out a hollow laugh.

[>Huh?]

[>Public!?]

[>Did Elephant get pushed in the jungle fight?]

[>Wow… …]

Soon, messages from surprised team members followed. Elephant quickly typed in a chat.

The match was lost, but the game was not over yet. He calmly realized what he had to do as a professional to win.

[>From now on, Mid, please take the orders.]

It was a surprising departure from his duties. Naturally, his teammates questioned the decision.

But the elephant's words were not over yet.

[>I will be the one marking Purple.]

[>Otherwise, you have no choice but to lose.]

I could tell when I tried it.

I couldn't deal with him while worrying about orders.

[>This is my order.]

That was the professional's judgment.

* * *

Meanwhile, the chat window was in a truly festive mood.

-Elephant cut! Elephant cut!

-I really won this lol

-Okay, who's the claw chaser now? Okay, who's the claw chaser now?

-First Blood? No! It's Perfect Blood!

-Counter? Are you talking about the checkout counter? Counter? Are you talking about the checkout counter?

-Checkout counter, okay lol

-Ah, lol. Compatibility and everything else are useless in front of Godple!

-Is this a no-tem battle? What on earth is the Bungtz Bungtz that I saw?

-???: Don't come unless you have full control

-Pearl-Pop until the last deception

Viewers did not spare their praise.

That's understandable, because he defeated Ragnel, the counter champion of Barzan II. And what's more, Ragnel's player is Elephant?

[>As expected, you are our boss!]

[>Glory to the Lord's victory!]

[>Wow… You really caught Ellie]

[>I will believe and follow you!]

This was followed by praise from viewers as well as team members.

There was no way he could remain calm in this situation. However, Lee Kyung-bok was skilled at doing such impossible things.

“As expected, a pro is a pro. It was the hardest fight I’ve had while playing Mystic.”

The viewers turned their attention as he answered calmly with a faint smile.

-Look at the fact that it just adds to the spread ㅋㅋㅋ

-Ah haha, if you only give it to the elephant, it'll be a shame~

-No lol, you haven't been in the Mystic League for that long!

-Dia tier (not much)

-Toughest fight (Less than 10 rounds)

-Huh? Then what rank were you when you fought the rat?

Lee Kyung-bok also fit the mood with the viewers' playful reactions.

“Ji Temple didn’t take that long… … Ahem! I’m busy right now, so I’ll stop here.”

The chat window was filled with laughter at that answer. Lee Kyung-bok quickly changed the subject.

Although it may be a very small number, there may be some people who take the joke seriously.

“We need to widen the gap before Ellie is resurrected. Let’s go gank right away.”

He headed towards a relatively weak bottom lane, but for some reason, the opponents seemed to lose focus on the game.

'Is it because Ellie was caught?'

In reality, it was because of Elephant's declaration of abandonment of the order, but it was a close guess.

Either way, it was a golden opportunity for him.

“Lure me from the middle of the bottom. Pretend to run away, and when I initiate, join me right away. You don’t have to answer.”

He immediately gave orders to the Bottom Duo. Having proven their skills in the battle against the Elephant, the two immediately followed suit.

The situation that followed was as Lee Gyeong-bok intended.

[Perfect play, not me, but him first]

[Perfect Play, Not Me, But This One]

The opposing bottom duo quickly fell to the skill chain and joint attack. Before the viewers could even admire, Lee Kyung-bok returned to the main base.

“Let me set up the template.”

Lee Kyung-bok quickly purchased the items. Thanks to the 3 kilos of funds he had accumulated, he was able to quickly complete the setup he wanted.

-?

-What the heck is this setting?

-Barzan usually has to be held out with a room or a body armor;;;

-Are they all transfer options?

-How did it happen, how did it happen!

-ㄴㅇㄱ An unimaginable build!

-Wow lol, isn't this completely about only ganking?

-Really lol If you move fast, each one will come out

-Is this Perzan's unique build?

The chat window was filled with questions and guesses about their meaning.

Lee Kyung-bok laughed as he moved.

“Ganking is true, but it’s not just that.”

The chat window filled with question marks at the mention of another reason. He continued, heading towards the buff creeps and red treants.

“Ragnel was a carnivore jungler, right? But what if he couldn’t ‘eat meat’?”

-?????

-What the hell is this?

-Professor! Unscheduled note tests are a violation of the Geneva Convention!

-Yikes lol what the heck is this Geneva Convention lol

-Are you saying you're going to make it so there's nothing to eat right now?

Lee Kyung-bok answered with a smile in the chat room filled with questions.

“You guessed right.”

Thanks to the movement speed item, it was quick to get to the Red Trent.

“We want to preempt creeps and disrupt ganking.”

He started planning right away.

As the hunt began, viewers could see the gamble.

-Perfect card ON!

-Wow lol, you're going to fill the deal with a red buff?

-What the heck ㅋㅋ Forced fasting meta ㅋㅋ

-(Gemalcon)(Gemalcon)(Gemalcon)

-Would it be possible with Godple?

-If this happens, won't elephants become real herbivores? Lol

-Ah haha elephants are the oldest herbivores!

-Herbivore jungler, what the f*ckㅋㅋㅋ

The mood of the viewers who had been laughing cheerfully at that strategy soon changed.

Lee Kyung-bok, who had acquired the Red Buff, entered the jungle, but the situation was once again unexpected.

“Those of you who are following along, keep this in mind. This is a race against time. So, like this… … !”

Lee Kyung-bok didn't just catch creeps. He attacked creeps scattered in various places, drew aggro, and then moved to another creep.

-?

-You want to go hunting?

-No;;; Are you trying to play another game by yourself again? LOL!

-You're saying that this can be done with Barzan, not with any other champion?

-Wow lol this surprisingly has the potential to be king?

-Really lol. With AI, you can only chase in a straight line.

Once you've brought in a bunch of creeps, the rest is up to skill chaining.

The red buff also applies to skills, so all creeps that appear in a straight line receive continuous damage.

-What's the speed at which money accumulates?

-5252, Don't underestimate the collection power of black companies!

-Ah haha. Even the creeps recognize Godple and go straight to Done Park Ju?

-It turned out to be a domestically produced creep.

-If it's domestic, it's King Jeong

-If it's a Korean-made creep, please give money to Gotple!

-What the heck lol Korean product lol

Lee Kyung-bok finished cleaning up and ran again. He crossed the midline and headed towards the Blue Guardian.

The elephant was revived after acquiring the blue buff.

“I wonder what choice you will make after seeing the jungle.”

Lee Kyung-bok cleared out the creeps in the area while giving a comment.

-This is seriously ridiculous lol

-I came out to the jungle but there's only grass lol

-???: What is it? Give me back my creep!

-???: Do you know that this Ragnell is full?

– Surren Chamgi LV99999

-Jungler (Line resident)

-It seems like you'll be looking for mutual assistance rather than a permanent resident ㅋㅋㅋ

-Since both jungler and liner are going to die anyway, mutual assistance is the best

-Really lol, the full amount is refunded at maturity, so that's awesome

-The person who gets the refund is Gotple, right?

-Are you crazy? LOL

Viewers laughed imagining Elephant's reaction.

But a pro is still a pro.

“You came sooner than I expected?”

Elephant found him again, perhaps after receiving tips from other team members.

“Even the buff… … You really are not easy.”

Elephant grimaced as he saw the two auras rising from Lee Kyung-bok's body.

But he didn't back down.

'If we avoid this match now, the gap will only widen.'

If we let Lee Kyung-bok go like this, he will only come back stronger. Elephant’s eyes became sharp.

'Fortunately, the item only has a movement speed buff.'

At the same time as he made the decision, he grabbed the noose rope hanging from his waist and threw it.

Ragnell's third skill was 'Capture Prey'.

When hit by the trap, the target becomes unable to move. This was usually a technique used on opponents running away from Ragnell.

However, Lee Kyung-bok was not susceptible to such a straightforward skill.

'Of course I'll avoid it!'

The elephant figured out the direction he was avoiding and pounced on him.

The jungle fight breaks out again.

However, the pattern was different from the first time. Previously, the weapons of both sides clashed violently, but this time, his claws were frequently cutting through the air.

That wasn't all.

“Push each line when you have a chance.”

Elephant opened his eyes wide as he saw Lee Kyung-bok's mouth moving. Judging from the lack of sound, it was clearly a team voice chat.

'You're even giving orders!?'

Lee Kyung-bok was more relaxed than before. This was because his movement speed increased due to the effect of the item, which gave him more room to move.

“I’ve captured Ellie, so don’t worry about ganking. However, the bottom lane is at risk of a counterattack, so don’t overdo it.”

The elephant's eyes opened wide.

Emotions I had never felt before swirled in my chest.

“Rather than that, clear the jungle below from time to time. Don’t worry about me.”

At first I thought it was anger, because I thought it was an attitude of ignoring me.

But soon he changed his mind.

'No, you're not ignoring me.'

I could tell because he was focused on me.

'I do it because I can do it this way.'

Lee Kyung-bok's eyes were constantly moving. It was clear that he was checking not only himself in front of him, but also the minimap and the status of other champions.

He could tell because he was a fellow jungler. So he figured out the identity of the emotion he was feeling.

'What the heck is this… …!'

This emotion was 'awe', followed by 'a sense of awe'.

Just as a mountaineer sees a high and rugged mountain as something to be feared but also conquered.

To Elephant, Lee Kyung-bok approached him as that kind of person.

His eyes turned sharply toward her as if he had just finished his order.

The elephant smiled, feeling an eerie sensation spread across his entire body.

-What the heck;;; You're giving me an order in the middle of this?

-Is Elephant completely full right now?

-Really lol It's faster than before

-But it doesn't work for Godple?

-Is this diamond tier?

-Shit, elephants are originally like that, lol

-Now, will you admit that da=ma=gma?

-Please be quiet! (snap)

-The diamond smoke that overwhelms you is coming soon!?

-Don't you know that Godple is 'Perfect-Tier'?

-This is the perfect tier, beat your opponent.

The second battle ended faster than the first. This was because Kyungbok Lee had prepared not only items but also creep buffs.

-Wow lol 2 kills!

-This isn't a snowball, it's an avalanche lol

-Really lol the creeps went extinct in the avalanche

-Natural disaster level streamer lol

-The jungle is now completely under Godple's control lol

-The jungler really looks like he's going to eat the line ㅋㅋㅋ

-The elephant is crying!

-Reason for retirement) Purple

-Retirement okay lol

Lee Kyung-bok took a deep breath and checked the chat.

“Elephant, you’re not that weak, are you? You’re a pro.”

As he spoke, he took a moment to reminisce about old memories.

'Kyungbok, becoming a pro-gamer means starting a game that you can't give up until the end.'

These were the words of Baek Kang-min, the coach who tried to recruit him during his school days and is now a manager.

In the end, their relationship didn't work out, but the feeling Shingi sensed from him still remained in her memory.

'There's no way someone he chose would be so easily dismissed.'

Lee Kyung-bok smiled and moved again.

“Since Elephant is a professional, I will also do my best.”

-Is this the mindset of an aspiring professional?

– A carry full of sincerity from Gotple? I can't stand this!

-Pro mode ON!

-Are you saying you're going to kill them all in the end?

-Ah haha I'm going to go gank right away haha

-Huh? Just passing by?

Viewers soon began to question the direction he was heading.

“The jungle is dominant, so now we have to take over the entire game.”

Lee Kyung-bok answered with a smile.

At those words, the viewers guessed the destination.

-no way?

-Isn't this the Elemental Shrine?

-No;;; Are you going to catch the elemental now?

-Huh? Is this it?!

-Oh lol, as expected, it's a zero-back bus.

Elemental Shrine.

It was a place where creeps called elementals with various attributes were randomly generated. And they were also creeps that gave buffs.

The difference is that Blue Guardian and Red Trent buff the hunted champion individually, while Elemental buffs the entire team. And it is that much more difficult to conquer.

-Usually 2 or 3 people don't go?

-ㅇㅇ At this point, 3 people should go.

-Solo play is possible, though lol

-That's after you've set up the temple to some extent!

-Solo play is a bit difficult with this speed setting;;

-Besides, Barzan doesn't even have a deal cycle?

-Huh! Take that bastard with you!

-Ji Temple! What are you doing? Shouldn't you be following along with me?

-Ah haha the rat temple is looking at the right angle!

-Change jobs, okay lol

The viewers playfully chatted, but did not hide their concerns. Lee Kyung-bok asked back.

“Can’t you catch the elephant by yourself?”

-We caught an elephant too

-There are people who have actually caught Kingjik solo.

-No;; But it wasn't a Barzan move build!

Lee Kyung-bok concluded his rebuttal with one word.

“So, it’s not that you ‘haven’t’ done it with this combination so far, it’s that you ‘can’t’ do it.”

With just those words, the atmosphere in the chat window changed.

-Kya, lol is this what a pervert feels like?

-???: Have you tried it?

-Mr. Chairman?

-It's capitalism itself… … !

-Ah haha, if you become a god player then it will work!

-Really lol I don't even have to watch it anyway

-Gotple broadcasting is something you watch with your heart, not your head.

-No;; Look with your eyes!

-Yikes ㅋㅋ It's such an obvious thing, but I burst out laughing ㅋㅋ

Because there was nothing he said that didn't come true.
