Genius Archer Streaming Season 2 Episode 114
40. Cruising (2)
Bontubi opened his mouth with an excited expression.
“I’m so touched. B-rank students. You can do it too… …! I studied mainly from the textbook… … .”
-??
-This guy is crazy lol
-I understand the rank
-Dorainu lol
“… … ?”
King Gyul was at a loss for words for a moment.
In the meantime, Bontubi continued talking.
“Almond, the first-class contributor who helped me get to where I am today. Kimchi Warrior, who always believed in me and supported me. And my parents, who helped me get to where I am today… … .”
“Okay, okay, wait a minute! Mr. Bontubi?!”
King Gul stopped talking here.
“First of all! KimchiWarrior has never trusted you, Bontubi! Secondly! This isn’t about getting a perfect score on the CSAT or winning the Oscar for Best Actor, but about achieving an A-rank in Civil Empire! Lastly! Isn’t it too far from the truth that Nalbil ‘studied mainly from textbooks’!?”
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-This is too much ㅠㅠ ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Ugh lol
-Fact murder lol
-My bones are broken.
But Bontubi’s expression became tearful.
King Gul doesn’t care and ends his interview.
“Next! Almonds!”
After that, almonds were called in.
‘What do you say?’
Almond didn’t know what to say.
From his perspective, he came to his senses and was now an A-rank, but he couldn’t really feel anything about it. It wasn’t like he had suffered for years like Bontubi and finally got an A-rank.
“Ah. Hmm. I’ll work hard to get an A+.”
Almond just says it briefly and ends there.
King Gul must have liked that.
“Wow, that’s good. It’s simple! As expected, it’s a full cart!”
He concludes the interview by saying this.
-The empty cart is making a lot of noise lol
-A full straight ball lol
-Bontubin… …
-The main character of the victory doesn’t really have much to say lol
“Kimchi Warrior. I got promoted very easily today with 3 consecutive wins. What do you think? Are you going to do this?”
Today’s goal was to reach A rank.
I set a reasonable goal, thinking that there would be one or two setbacks during the promotion battle. I achieved it faster than I expected.
“Hmm. I guess it’s good to keep the momentum going. Starting from Rank A, the points don’t really go up that much.”
“Hey~! Great! Let’s go further!”
So Almond and Bontubi were immediately thrown back into the ranked game.
* * *
Even though it was the beginning of A-rank, the two of them had prepared themselves to some extent.
The result is cruising.
The next victory was also won too easily.
[Victory]
King Gul exclaims in surprise.
“No, even an A-rank is nothing special? Is this game ruined!?”
He also thought that A-rank would be different, so he prepared his explanation by making various hypotheses. But it wasn’t much different.
Kimchi Warrior adds an explanation.
“This strategy originally worked better at rank A and above.”
Fast Archer Rush is a strategy that is rarely used these days. It is a strategy that catches the enemy off guard.
But wouldn’t it make sense to take a chance on your opponent if he or she knows the current meta and strategies to some extent and is familiar with them? If your opponent has no idea what “normal play” is, you can’t take a chance on him or her. All games up to B-rank were like that. That’s why there were so many close games.
But now it’s different.
“Wow! I won again!?”
“Again, again, again! They said the winning percentage was 80%!”
“Another victory!”
After this, Almond and Bontubi went on a 4-game winning streak and collected 20% of the rank points needed for the A+ rank promotion.
“The points really don’t go up! Just like B2B’s skills!”
If you have this many consecutive wins on the reel, your rank will rise at an incredible rate.
Civil Empire wasn’t like that. At least from A-rank up.
“Ah, yes. I think S-rank is special, so I give out really stingy points starting from A-rank. Still… … .”
Kimchi Warrior checks the time and nods.
“I think this is enough.”
This is the end of today’s ranked race.
A virtual declaration of indulgence.
King Gul also nods.

“Ha. Everyone. That’s all for today. I guess I’ll have to stop here too. My throat is about to go sore.”
-ㅠㅠㅠ
-Kinggyul hyung, it was fun!
-Let’s do this again ㅠㅠ
Knock knock. Knock knock.
Towards the end, King Gyul’s throat became hoarse and he started to cough.
Kimchi Warrior also had a rather tired face.
“Thank you for your effort.”
“Yes, Mr. Kimchi. Thank you for your hard work, including the feedback and explanation.”
-Do you do this every day? ㅠㅠ
-Don’t go ㅠ
-Oh my god, when did it become night?
Viewers found this content quite entertaining and begged them not to go.
‘What are you guys doing?’
This was a rare phenomenon in Kinggyul’s room. This was probably because only diehard fans who would send him off coolly when it was time to let him go.
‘We’ve got some new fans.’
Most people probably came to see the almonds, but King Gyul was happy anyway.
It always feels good to see people flocking to your broadcast like this.
[Current viewers 21,000]
His current broadcast viewership is a whopping 21,000.
“… … ?”
It’s an incredible achievement for a broadcast that used to hover around 5,000, let alone 10,000.
“Thank you all for today. That’s it for the broadcast~!”
Ting.
The broadcast ends with a neat closing statement.
-Bbbb
-ㅠㅠGoodbye
-Let’s do it again tomorrow
Viewers start to leave one by one. King Gyul glances at the Almond broadcast.
‘If I’m like this, what would Almond Broadcasting be like?’
Now, he too is not unrelated to the rise and fall of Almond. He has already boarded the same boat. He also has to worry about the success of Almond’s broadcast.
[Current viewers 37,000]
“… … 37 thousand people?”
It was a significant number.
This was also a great record for Almond personally.
It is clear that most of the viewers overlap with Kinggyul, but even a total of 37,000 is encouraging.
“wow.”
King Gyul swallows dry saliva through his scratchy throat and does the math.
“If you add it all up, it’s roughly 58,000… … ?”
There are probably quite a few overlapping people, but in any case, this is a top-tier viewership among personal broadcasters.
“I didn’t expect mid-term profits.”
Kinggyul thought of this content as practice for his Civil Empire commentary, and had no intention of making any real money from it.
I just thought of it as a stepping stone to get into this game.
However, it seems that there will be a lot of profit coming from the intermediate process.
“That’s quite a lot. Almonds… … .”
He was once again amazed by the firepower of almonds.
This streamer literally rose through the ranks shortly after entering the market.
“Top class might be possible too.”
Excluding special cases such as English-based or cross-border virtual streamers with over 100,000 or 200,000 subscribers, or streamers who are from popular idol groups, 30,000 to 50,000 subscribers would be considered top-tier in the domestic streaming market.
One of them is a gumball that takes 30k+ no matter what game you play, and if it’s a little better, it regularly gives 40k.
Below that, there are Horn Ramen, Fish Candy, and Forest Forest, which regularly produce 20,000 units.
Below that are Miho, acorn jelly, and danmuji, which are mainly sold in the 10,000 range… … These are the lineups that are currently connected to almonds.
Almond is also currently in this lineup. He is what is called a tier 3 streamer in the community that likes to rank streamers.
“But there is a difference in speed.”
If there’s one thing that sets him apart from other tier 3 streamers, it’s speed.
The rate of increase is extraordinary.
Most streamers settle into a certain niche and their viewers become fixed.
Almonds continue to grow.
In fact, as it has been consistently recording over 20,000 views in recent broadcasts, there has been a conflict of opinions between those who say it should be upgraded to Tier 2 and those who say it is too early to know.
“But then it suddenly went up to 30,000.”
Meanwhile, thanks to his relationship with Kimchi Warrior, Almond was able to create 30,000 viewers.
Now, with the addition of King Gul, it has surpassed the mid-30,000 mark.
If we properly utilize this content, we might be able to secure 30,000 viewers… … .
“Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
“!”
The sound of a baby crying in the middle of the night.
King Gul runs away naked.
The sleeping child seems to have woken up. He quickly picks up the child, holds him, and soothes him. He does this so as not to wake his sleeping wife.
“Uh. Uh. It’s okay. It’s okay.”
The crying subsides a little.
But I still need to hold and rock him for a while to get him to fall asleep properly, so I just sit down in the rocking chair.
“Right. Right. It’s okay.”
There’s nothing much to do but rock the baby, so I look around the dark room. It’s the baby’s room now, but it used to be a storage room.
The closet has been taken out, but the display cases still remain.
The trophies Kingyul won during his professional days are still here.
The uniform I wore at the time, and photos I took with my teammates.
‘I wonder how you are doing.’
King Gyul mutters as he looks at each face again.
Friends who shared glory together.
Half of them have left the gaming industry entirely and are leading other lives, while the other half work as coaches or managers.
Everything went well for them all and they got married, but only Kinggyul had a child.
He smirks and talks to the photo.
“You guys are in big trouble. Now that you have a baby, you’re going to have to earn a lot of money.”
He now slowly places the completely asleep child onto the bed.
“Eugh… … .”
Stretch your stiff back for a moment and do some stretching.
It’s really tiring to come home and do commentary after a busy schedule.
but…….
“Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!”
“Oh, my. It’s okay. It’s okay.”
It seems like something worth doing.
“are you okay.”
* * *
next day.
King Gyul wakes up in the morning, rubs his eyes, and starts feeling around on the bed, looking for his cell phone.
‘Did the Alltube video go well?’
To watch Alltube.
From today, Kinggyul editors and Almond editors will be uploading videos in collaboration.
The grand goal of this contract was to have at least one of them reach number one on the real-time charts.
‘I don’t have to be number one.’
King Gyu didn’t really expect to be number one, but what do you think?
That’s what they’re aiming for.
“Ugh… … .”
He headed to the game category video chart, trying to shake off the fatigue as much as possible with a stretch.
[game]
[Real-time trending topics ranking]
“… … .”
The first place was another video.
However, there were several videos featuring King Gul as the main character on the rankings.
“oh!”
23rd) Commentator from Protoss
28th) “That Commentary”’s Tongue Mad Movie
It was a new experience for Kinggyul as it had been such a long time since he had been on a chart like this.
“This… this is really happening?”
Besides that, there were three or four videos that featured almonds as the main theme.
11th) Japanese commander who surrendered in tears after being scolded by Korean commander
27th) The arrow… … Chikicha?!
31st) Promotion like a dog
“Wow… …Almonds too… … .”
It’s encouraging that almost all of the videos have charted anyway.
But there was no first place.
“Well, it’s not easy to be number one.”
Just uploading this many videos in a day is a monster.
It would be greedy to want to be number one.
Kinggyul didn’t even expect that in the first place.
“uh?”
But then, a memory suddenly flashed through King Gyul’s mind.
“But those shorts got a good response yesterday. Where did they go?”
The short video I uploaded first yesterday. It was definitely popular, and Kinggyul also enjoyed it.
But that video wasn’t on the charts.
“Has it already been 24 hours?”
It was supposed to be off the charts after 24 hours, but that wasn’t supposed to happen.
Because the video was uploaded around 5-6 PM yesterday.
Kinggyul searches for the title of the video and finds it.
[Why the world bowed down before Joseon’s bow]
“Oh. There it is!”
The footage still existed.
And of course, it hadn’t even been 24 hours.
“It says it was uploaded 14 hours ago… … .”
One more thing that is puzzling.
“!?”
#1 real-time trending video
It clearly says “1st place” on the hashtag.
“What… what is it?”
But why didn’t it show up on the chart?
If you look at the chart again, this video is not there.
It’s a mess.
Kinggyul, who was looking for something so strange.
After a while, you find out why and are shocked.
“crazy.”
