Genius Archer's Streaming

Chapter 170: Silver vs. Master (3)

They surpassed 20,000 viewers for the first time. Although it was momentarily, they were in the top 10% of all streamers.

— I'm here to bet!

— Kya, they know how to make a stream interesting!

— It's been a while since I've gambled points.

— People who are betting on Almond, are you crazy?!

They were able to absorb some of StrawberryShooter and Tako's viewers. Ju-Hyeok made a victorious smile.

'This is it.'

As expected, StrawberryShooter didn't activate the betting system. It was obvious that he was anxious about potentially losing to Almond, who was a Silver player. It was a predictable reaction, but he wouldn't go as far as to do something like that.

According to Ju-Hyeok's analysis, despite having a large build, StrawberryShooter had a timid personality. His analysis turned out to be spot on.

As for Tako, of course, he couldn't activate the betting system. It wasn't a competition he was personally involved in, and predicting the potential consequences of placing a bet was difficult. Only one person could activate the betting system here: Almond. With a prepared mentality, the underdog position, and a formidable presence, these three elements combined to create the current betting scenario.

The odds were 13% versus 87%. At first glance, it seemed highly unbalanced, but such matches were optimal for betting. The distinction between the sure bet and the reverse bet was clear. There seemed to be a good chance of success even with a reverse bet, as the odds favored the maintained line. It was the perfect setup to ignite excitement.

— Let's go for the upset!!!

— Show them the power of ilver players!!

— Strawberry! Please shut down these losers!

— Are you guys crazy? 13%?! He's master!

— These low ranked noobs have false hope.

The chat was enough evidence and showed why the betting system wasn't turned on often.

Ju-Hyeok became much busier. He had a lot more users and comments to delete and ban.

"20,000 viewers? Fine, I guess I'll maintain it."

Ju-Hyeok rolled up his sleeves and grabbed his mouse.

Almond's Raina and StrawberryShooter's poison dart rabbit were about to meet.

— Finally!

— Ohhh!

— Almond, run into him! You always do that! (I bet on Strawberry)

***

"Alright! They've finally met!"

Tako turned into his caster mode.

He slammed his table and got up shouting, "Everyone knows StrawberryShooter's most played champion is the poison dart rabbit, right? If you get hit a couple of times by that champion, your poison damage stacks and you die in no time."

— Strawberry is trying so hard with his most played

— Bro, you're masters... relax...

— Playing his main already, LOL

In contrast to StrawberryShooter's large figure, his most played champion was the cute little poison dart bunny. It was his most played and best champion. This champion was like another part of his body.

"He's trying to scare him early on."

— For real~ We can't let silver players have a chance~

— Today's dinner is mixed nuts!

— Crunch! Crunch!

— NO ALMOND. Join us. Why are you cheering someone who kissed Raina? If you're Korean, you must join us.

"Ah, now that I think about it, Almond's picked his main champion as Raina, right? It's my first time seeing it as well. Honestly, I didn't even know this was his main champion because he never played her during practice."

Raina, Tako knew from rumors that she was Almond's main champion, yet he never played her all week.

"Even though she’s his main champion, playing her for the first time in a week is pretty risky, right?"

Bbbu-

With the sound of a horn, the minions started swarming in. The two of them slowly began killing the minions. It seemed like they didn't want to engage in a fight straight away. Even in the abyss duel mode, minion farming was important. Almond knew that fact and wouldn't recklessly charge in.

Pew! Pew!

He pulled the bowstring lightly.

Tang! Tang!

The arrows, seemingly shot casually, precisely hit their targets, the minions.

Puung! Pung!

— What the?

— He's csing is insane!

— He must've fixed the habit of ignoring minions.

— Did he practice on his own??

The viewers started to get nervous after seeing Almond calmly pick up the pace as he killed the minions individually. All these viewers had their bets on StrawberryShooter.

— Raina is still alive?

— Haha, Strawberry betters are starting to get nervous!

— His movements are different! Is this really the same Raina I've played?

Even the slightest movement changed when high-rank players played their main champion. It was as if their bodies became several times lighter. They could avoid skills they normally couldn't dodge and land skills they could have missed. They possessed an indescribable momentum. Almond could feel that momentum within himself as well.

[You're pretty good even though it's been a while.]

It had been over a week since he played Raina.

— Raina's crush...

— Raina! Don't fall for him! He's a cheater!

— Almond likes Sana more!

— Fact: Almond likes Lazy Soldier more than Kingdom Age and Sana more than Raina.

Even Raina had to admit Almond's movements were almost perfect. He could personally feel it.

'I can... feel my senses coming back.'

Was it because she was one of the first champions he played? As a result, he was able to adapt to her quickly. While they were peacefully farming the minions, StrawberryShooter stepped closer.

'He's coming.'

Their range was the same. As soon as their ranges collided, the fight would begin.

Pshoot, pshoot...

StrawberryShooter approached him slowly as he cleared the minions one by one. The short legs moved back and forth and performed tightrope walking within the effective range.

Raina's targets appeared and disappeared repeatedly.

StrawberryShooter was definitely a master. He had no unnecessary movements. Then, the poison dart bunny's cheeks swelled up significantly.

"!"

Almond knew what was about to happen.

[Blinding Dart]

Pang!!!

"Oh! Strawberry's blinding dart!! The fight has begun!"

The blinding dart was a skill with a slightly longer range than a regular stinger. It was a skill the poison dart rabbit had. Blinding the opponent's sense of range and launching a surprise attack with the blinding dart could be deadly in a one-on-one battle.

"If he gets hit by that, he'll get blinded and won't be able to see anything! Then it's game over for the ADC!"

The dart was slower, but more powerful than an arrow.

Shiiik!

The dart cut through the air and approached Almond. A normal player wouldn't have been able to dodge it.

However—

"Huh?! Raina disappeared! When did Almond react?!"

Almond already threw his body and rolled.

'What?' StrawberryShooter panicked. 'How did he react to it?'

Trading damage after hitting the target with the poison dart was a given. It wasn’t meant to be dodged.

'You need to be at least Grandmaster to dodge it... Anyways, where did he go?!'

Raina disappeared in front of him. It was odd because Raina wasn't supposed to have an invisibility skill. StrawberryShooter was confused, but Tako seemed to realize what was happening.

"Ah, is this it?! The one second invisibility that only Almond's Raina knows?!"
