Gender Swap: The Introvert's Broadcast-Chapter 95: Why am I Meeting Rize Here

What do you need to rank up?

Most people would say skill.

If you think a bit more, they would say stamina.

But for me, there was only one thing I needed.

"Mental."

Maintaining my mental state is important.

Though I’ve made efforts to rank up until now, I used to play games for fun.

But now it’s different.

It means I must play solely for the 'win.'

To do that, managing my mental state so it doesn’t break down is crucial.

“If I get weird chats or pings while playing, I’ll just block them. I think that’s the best way to keep my mental intact.”

This is the right direction.

It’s not that I can’t play LoL, it’s just that it’s better to protect my mental.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: That's right, right?]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: But what are you talking about all of a sudden?]

[What the hell are you talking about as soon as you turn on the broadcast?]

[First of all, it's a good thing that you're playing games diligently, but what's going on?]

[What's going on?]

[This is Kang Hu-min: All of a sudden?]

[The first thing you say when you turn on the broadcast is that you're blocking ping chat to protect your mental health.]

The viewers were confused.

But I couldn’t tell them about the contract.

You don’t reveal these things until the dramatic moment.

So, I spoke vaguely.

“I just want to hit Challenger. I’ve played for fun until now... but after raising my LP a lot, I think hitting Challenger is a good idea.”

My current LP is 588.

It’s high, but not high enough to reach Challenger.

The cutoff for Challenger is 800 points.

At this rate, it’s impossible.

‘...I think I can do it, but the important thing is how long it will take.’

With that thought, I immediately started the game.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: When did you become like this?]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Do you have a good attitude?]

[Really..]

[There's a world where Dama sincerely believes in Leore]

[My blood pressure went up because you kept talking about random picks and winning, but you're finally backing down. Hmm]

[This is Kang Hu-min: But what happens if you declare your sincerity like this and don't achieve the challenge?]

[You'll just get kicked out.]

[If you're Kang Hu-min who's nervous because you remember a promise you made in the past, then you're a loser. LOL]

“Ah, right.”

Reading the chat reminded me, there was a bet made by ‘강후민입니다.’

If I hit Challenger, I’d have to perform an embarrassing stunt in Gwanghwamun.

At the time, I didn’t think it was impossible... but I didn’t expect to be challenged so quickly.

“Hoo-min, you better be waiting. Don’t even think about running away. I already know where you live.”

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Really?]

[F*ckㅋㅋㅋ]

[How did you find out where I live..]

[This is so scary]

[What's the relationship between you two normally?]

[This is Kang Humin:????]

[This is Kang Humin: Do you really know where I live???]

[Do you understand, you idiot?]

[Oh, shit ㅋㅋ]

[The idiot is Kang Pyeong ㅋㅋ]

[You're really stupid..]

[Hwanhee: Do you understand?]

I said it half-jokingly and started the first game.

For the first game, I casually picked Yone.

Though he’s a champion that requires a lot of skill, I personally felt very comfortable playing him.

I could handle him easily.

‘Because I like this champion so much.’

His skill set is so good that even if you randomly pick him, the chances of winning increase drastically.

I personally don’t really like this kind of champion, but what can I do?

To win the game, I have to pick him.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Easy Yone pick is good]

[This is how you win, umm]

[Hwanhee: You really decided to win]

[You picked Yone last time too, but this is the first time you've picked Carl like this]

[This is Kang Hu-min: Please lose, please lose, please lose, please lose, please lose, please lose, please lose]

[Cursing is fucking hard ㅋㅋ]

[But the picture of losing doesn't come out just because you curse..]

[It really doesn't come out like that ㅋㅋ]

“How could I lose with this champion? Yone is just broken.”

I don’t usually say stuff like this when playing LoL, but I say it often when playing ‘Yone.’

It just feels like he’s unbalanced.

I thought about that as I played.

“Let’s go with a safe Q poke.”

Since Yone is strong late-game, there’s no need to take risks early on.

It’s the opponent who has to hurry.

Yone can just take it easy, last-hitting minions, and look for a chance to take over the game later.

“Focus on safely last-hitting, but don’t be too passive.”

Being passive is fine, but constantly being passive would hurt the team.

To be exact, it’s a burden on the jungler.

If the top lane doesn’t have control, the jungler can’t even take the small camps.

[This is Kang Hu-min: No, don't be so good at it. Why are you doing so well?]

[Fact) Dama was originally good at Leore..]

[Just Dama is good at Leore]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: This is Yoneji]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Shamelessly holds out in the early laning phase]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Starts carrying in the early and mid-game]

[The champion itself is a bit disgusting]

When a champion is strong late-game, it’s normal for them to be weak early-game, but Yone doesn’t have that problem.

He’s strong both early and late.

If I had to choose the most annoying champion to face, it would probably be Yone.

Thinking about that, I led the team fight.

“Let’s hit them with Q to airbone and finish with R.”

And soon after.

[ACE!]

The notification popped up, saying that I had killed all the enemies.

It was the kind of situation where the opponent’s will would be broken.

How long had it been?

Eventually, the opponent surrendered.

“Okay, a smooth win.”

It was strange to lose in the first place.

Since I was playing a broken champion.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: But the game is too]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Didn't I win easily?]

[Really]

[Let's seal Yone from now on]

[This is Kang Hu-min: Seal Yone Seal Yone Seal Yone Seal Yone Seal Yone Seal Yone]

I saw a strange voice in the chat window saying to seal Yone, but I simply ignored it and continued playing the game.

Despite the weird request to ban Yone, I ignored it and kept playing the game.

How much time had passed?

My LP had gone up a lot.

Grandmaster 645 LP.

“Phew, I’ve raised it quite a bit.”

I won three games.

All with Yone.

This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.

Yone really is comfortable to play.

There’s no need to do anything complicated during the laning phase. Just poke with Q and once it hits the late game, you can carry with your ultimate.

[This is Kang Hu-min: I've raised my tier a lot]

[This is Kang Hu-min: Let's stop here, okay?]

[This is Kang Hu-min: If I play more games here, I'll go crazy]

“Er... that’s not going to happen.”

Since I wasn’t streaming, I had nothing else to do.

I might as well stream until I hit Challenger.

‘By the way, when do I have to go back to the café?’

Since the café flooded, I haven’t gone to work, and I haven’t heard from the owner since.

The owner said they’d contact me when the repairs were done.

I wonder if I’ve been fired.

‘...I hope I haven’t been fired.’

I’d be a bit disappointed if I were.

After all, I’ve built a relationship with the owner over time.

“Then, let’s see the situation and I’ll try Gwen next.”

I can’t just pick Gwen randomly.

I’ll see how things go.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: This is it, this is it ㅋㅋ]

[This is Kang Hu-min: It’s fun, it’s fun~]

[I’m excited that Yone, who has a good win rate, won’t do it ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[Fact) Gwen has a better win rate]

[Hwan-hee: They’re both good anyway, so why do you like them..]

[There’s no reason to like them]

I said I might try Gwen if the situation allowed, thinking that the viewers would probably like it, and then I carefully texted Hwanhee.

[Me: Yewha.]

[Me: Do you know when the boss said]

[Me: The café will reopen?]

[Me: Did he tell you anything?]

I asked as politely as I could.

Then, after a moment...

[Shin Ye-hwa: I don’t know either]

[Shin Ye-hwa: I think it should be at least another month]

[Shin Ye-hwa: But why did you suddenly do that when you were on a broadcast?]

I just contacted him suddenly, as I got curious.

When a stable job is gone, it makes me a bit uneasy.

Although I’m making good money from streaming right now, it could all end in an instant.

‘Speaking of which, when am I going back to school...’

Random thoughts popped into my mind as I was thinking about all this.

“Alright, everyone, let’s focus on the game.”

I said that and checked the opponent’s name.

Then, at that moment.

There was a familiar name.

This was the name I saw a few days ago in a 1v1 match.

“...No way.”

I thought it couldn’t be, but upon confirming, I was sure.

[ Lee Je ]

It was Rize on the opponent’s team, in the top lane.
