Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 1 Episode 173
60. The Joker is laughing (2)
Taco’s hands trembled at the shocking statement.
It was not anger, but a feeling closer to fear.
‘What are you doing?’
Flash Sword Swift is clearly the incarnation of fighting with two daggers.
In this battlefield full of fancy tricks, two daggers are very shabby weapons, but that dagger is definitely a special weapon that shines even in this battlefield.
Because the user can teleport to the location where the dagger was thrown.
You can even summon the dagger back into your own hand.
These two are Swift’s main skills.
There is one more light attack skill, but these two skills were actually the most important.
With this, Swift could become the ultimate incarnation of power that can control the battlefield at will, or a fly that flies around and gets flattened.
Most of the time, nine out of ten times, it’s the latter.
Because it’s too difficult to control.
‘How can you handle such an incarnation with one hand?’
It’s common for an incarnation to become a troll even if you use both hands and both feet, but he was handling it with only one hand.
I even realized it only after hearing it from my own mouth.
“that is… … Is this weird? Even in electromagnetic waves, there are many cases where people fight with one-handed swords.”
Almond is right.
Because of the nature of Swift’s skills, there will often be another sword stuck in a corner.
One-handed combat will be frequent.
But Taco remembered.
The identity of the sense of discomfort I felt during battle.
‘You only used your left hand.’
Almond was using only his left hand.
There is a world of difference between switching to one hand when necessary and using only the left hand from the beginning.
“Almond. But why do you want to use only one hand? Given Almond’s personality, I don’t think he did that to tease me.”
Almond stubbornly waved his hand at the word ‘playful’.
“A joke? That’s not the case. “For me, it affects my play time.”
“… … During play time?”
It was an unexpected answer.
“What do you mean. that is.”
“… … “It’s a bit difficult to say, but I feel like I can store up a lot of stamina if I only use my left hand.”
“… … ?”
Since he didn’t want to say more, he just passed on the taco for now.
‘what?’
I thought it was strange.
The game would be much more difficult if you only used your left hand, but wouldn’t that actually save you stamina?
From the general public’s point of view, this is absurd.
“Ah, anyway… … Almond. In case of emergency, you can use both hands, right?”
“Of course. When I’m doing ranged attacks, I always use both hands.”
“then…….”
However, he only asked what he needed to check as a coach and did not discuss this topic.
And a decision was made.
“Almond, it would be better for you to go for the mid serve.”
“… … ?”
Mid.
This is the most important position in the game.
Currently, the main mid is Miho, but in case of emergency, the sub position that each player can switch to must be decided.
“Taco or Strawberry aren’t going?”
“Strawberry is the ADC sub position, and I will go to the jungle sub. I can do it with one hand. How can I go to the mid?”
“ah…….”
Almond tried to add something more, but Taco backed off.
“I think that’s enough practice.”
That afternoon.
The official roster has been submitted to the competition channel.
==== ====
Top – Bubble Gum / Miho
Jungle? Strawberry Shooter / Takoyaki
Mid – Miho / Almond
Bottom ADC – Almond / Strawberry Shooter
Bottom Supporter – Takoyaki / Bubble Gum
==== ====
-Almond sub position is mid? Not a support?
-The academic consensus is that Almond has a taco body camera.
-As expected, Mihoji is really good ㅋㅋ
-What?? Is something wrong?
-Is this team determined to fail?

As mid is the position that attracts the most attention in this game, Taco’s treatment raised many questions.
This is because Almond has already been criticized as the main ADC, and Almond has never been shown playing mid-game.
American dramas usually feature assassins and mage-type incarnations, but Almond has never shown either type.
-I guess I’ll get some hate for this in today’s power ranking measurement.
-Honestly, I think it was a bit excessive to change positions because I won the 1v1 fight ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Do Taco have neurons in his hair? Why are you judging like this?
└Taco Protoss theory hahaha
└ㄹㅇㅋ
* * *
5pm.
[This World – Bubble Gum]
Bubblegum’s team gathered on This World channel.
“Okay, everyone, have you turned off the broadcast?”
“yes.”
Taco checked the broadcast to see if there were any words that should not be leaked out.
“You must have seen the submitted roster.”
Tako started explaining in front of a holographic board like a blackboard, and the other four looked at him like a student.
“Everyone would have agreed on the main position, but in the end, the mid serve was changed to almond.”
The original mid-sub was takoyaki.
But suddenly, right before submitting the roster, Almond and Sub’s positions were switched.
“This is for Joker Pick.”
Everyone will be puzzled here.
How will Almond, who only knows how to play ADC, play the role of a joker pick in mid-game?
“What kind of Joker pick are you talking about… …?”
Bubblegum asked, raising his hand.
“This is Almond’s Swift. Before the long-range duel with Strawberry, we kept practicing together.”
The team members murmured as they heard this for the first time.
“really?”
“Wow. You did that?”
“So, you still beat me after doing something like that?!”
The team members are surprised to learn that Sang-Hyeon practiced privately in secret.
“and! Fit well!”
Miho was the first to shout. It’s a well-suited incarnation.
However, no one except Miho thought that way.
‘I only did long distances. Will that work?’
‘I said I was practicing… ‘
Because the style feels so different from the incarnations that Sang-Hyeon has shown so far.
It’s literally a joker pick.
The enemy probably can’t even imagine. It’s at a level that even our allies have doubts about.
“brother! I’ll teach you American drama! “I’m sure you’ll do better than me!”
Except for Miho, of course.
bang. bang.
Taco tapped the board again, as if trying to get attention.
“This is my judgment. Anyway, I changed from mid-sub. Are you dissatisfied?”
All the team members nodded.
Since this was agreed upon from the beginning, the process was smooth.
“Now, let’s all turn on our broadcasts. The hosts are going to do a power ranking content. It’ll be a bit like an opening ceremony.”
Nant Battle is not just a competition content.
The process of preparing for the competition itself is content.
This preparation process is also shared with the viewers, sharing the pleasure of victory more deeply.
Broadcasting must be turned on throughout the process.
This is not optional, but an obligation agreed upon with the organizers.
‘This is the first time such a large merger has taken place.’
Almond also pressed the start broadcast button without exception. It was a strange feeling since this was the first time a five-member group had merged.
[Streaming begins.]
The intro music was automatically skipped and the viewers came in.
-Ahahaha
-aha!
-Magic Wave Broadcast ON!
-Is this the room? A place where master and silver have become synonymous?
-Welcome to the world of rank reversal!
-aha!
In the chat window, various memes were still being made about winning Strawberry Shooter.
Changing the ‘real’ power wave to the ‘magic’ power wave… …changing the stable to a stable.
Thread and linen were being used interchangeably.
-Silver G, the father of Silvers! almond!
-Marve’s hope! Almond! If you’re Korean, let’s try Almond!
It seems like it has received a lot of support from low-ranked users.
[Current viewers 18,000.]
As soon as the broadcast was turned on, the number of viewers reached close to 18,000.
Almond scratched his head, thinking, “This is the extent of the competition’s firepower.”
“Okay~~! You’ve been waiting for a long time, right?”
At that moment, a voice in the tone of the event interrupted.
It’s a voice that seems to echo throughout This World.
“Trivi streamers! To all the knights who participated in the Nant! hello!?”
Woof.
A large hologram was created on top of the taco.
He was the caster in charge of hosting this competition.
“My name is Caster Kim Sang-hoon!”
Caster Kim Sang-hoon.
He is also an official tournament caster. He is quite a valuable person.
This casting was possible because it is the off-season for competitions.
-Oooooh
-I spent some money this season too
-After all, a global company! Trivi! lol
-God Sang-hoon… … tsk tsk
-You can see the tension rising
-The thermometer is exploding!
A booming voice and strong gestures.
He is definitely a person with outstanding skills in commanding the stage.
“The Power Rankings, which can be considered the opening ceremony of the Nant War, will soon be revealed.”
Ting.
When he snapped his fingers, a giant screen appeared.
“Trustworthy commentators and analysts will evaluate your current skills! Don’t be disappointed by the current power rankings. “I hope you will continue to work hard.”
From what I heard, it seemed like there were going to be some pretty harsh evaluations.
“It’s also fun to see how things change after practice is over and after the game is over! After all, Nant battles are fun, right?”
-Yes~~!
-That’s right!
-Hahahahahaha
“I think I can hear the cheers through the chat. It was good. Let’s see together!”
* * *
The man who appeared on the screen is commentator Jinhyuk Lee.
[Hello! This is King Gyu!]
He was a commentator also known by the nickname Kinggyul.
And next to each other are other commentators and analysts. A total of three people were caught on camera.
[It is truly an honor to be able to rank the power of the prestigious Nant.]
– Kinggyul, you’re talking bullshit again.
-The sound of tangerines ㅅㅂ hahaha
-Stop peeling tangerines… … .
-An honorable Nant battle hahahahaha
Kinggyul was famous for his cold-hearted evaluation of people, even if he said things in such a funny way.
The players were quite nervous.
[Well, let’s get straight to the point. Let me get straight to the point. Which team do you think is the strongest?]
Almost at the same time, the three held up a holographic sign that said ‘High Protein’.
[Team High Protein is also highly rated?]
[I think this is a team that deserves unanimous recognition.]
[Yes. Apparently, pickled radish, who recently retired from professional play, is the strongest. It’s even an American drama.]
[If the mid is strong, the game is easier.]
[Aside from pickled radish, I feel like other amateurs are better than their respective ranks.]
[yes. Even if it’s the same gold or silver, it’s gold and silver full of something, right?]
[yes.]
It was full of praise.
[Dotori-muk is in charge of the Platinum rank here. In fact, he is also a very full Platinum, right?]
[Yeah, that’s right.]
‘There goes Mr. Dotorijeok.’
Only then did Sang-Hyeon realize that this team was the team that Dotori-Muk belonged to.
I heard you were participating. The thought of seeing it again gives me new emotions.
[I think teams that face this team should be careful in mid-game. I don’t think you can beat pickled radish unless you prepare some kind of joker pick.]
[That’s right. After all… … Amateurs and professionals definitely have different senses. Even if you just look at the average VNS values… … .]
VNS?
It’s a name I haven’t heard in a while.
The thought of how hard it was to break this record crossed Almond’s mind.
just as expected.
[ah. wait a minute. I remembered that I was talking about VNS figures… … .]
Lee Jin-hyuk changed the subject.
[There is a player I really wanted to mention. In terms of VNS numbers, there is no one who can come close.]
[Ah… … that person.]
[Ah. That guy! He’s hot these days, right?]
Lee Jin-hyeok took one of the player cards and stuck it on the board.
‘almond.’
As expected, it was almonds.
-Kya~! As expected, Wolkeul!
-He is mentioned first as an individual here.
-The man chosen by Lee Hyun-seok!
-I still don’t know what I chose lol
-When it comes to VNS, it’s bound to be mentioned haha.
When almonds were mentioned, his viewers naturally rejoiced.
[Silver who defeated the Master. Magic power close to the law. Almond.]
[Magic close to the law? What is that?]
[I changed the yarn and hemp. They are the same.]
Wahahahaha.
A burst of laughter erupted.
[crazy. People are really good at making strange things.]
[Isn’t this amazing? The incident where all the energy was changed to Park.]
[It will be changed to Marver, who beat Silster.]
[Right. I think it may have that much of an impact now.]
Kinggyul led the story back to the original topic.
[Okay. Back to Almond. Almond was originally registered as Bronze. But now he’s Silver? Is that okay?]
[Oh, yes. The rule is to register with the season top rating (the highest score in the season). In your case, Almond, your top rating went up after you registered, right? That’s not a problem.]
[Ah. The problem is, is it the vulgar behavior of intentionally lowering your rank to enter and then going back?]
[Yes. It’s not a problem if your skills actually improve while preparing for the competition.]
[Okay. Then I can start Almond-nim’s story with peace of mind.]
Lee Jin-hyeok shook Almond’s card and asked.
[If you were to give it a score, how would you rate it? Let’s give it an alphabet score like S, A, B.]
fantasy,
