Chapter 17 (1/2)

17) G.o.d of the Stadium (4)

It was certain to be CT’s victory thanks to Park Jin-su’s 3 kills.

Many fans were attracted by the loss of s.h.i.+n Ji-ho, MBS’s ace in the 1st set. But the audience was still delighted. They were all concerned with an area not part of the game.

-That is a fight. Fight. Look. Why is that a fight?

-2 units entered the hills. That tower will switch to artillery mode and the range will barely reach.

-Just a threat. He is pretending to attack while taking additional expansion bases.

The commentary of Lee s.h.i.+n! His precise details entertained the caster, commentator and fans.

Finally.

-Player Lee s.h.i.+n, I just had this thought. Are you doing prophetic commentary? It kind of feels like a spoiler.

The audience burst out laughing at caster Lee Byung-cheol’s words.

Thus, the 3R playoffs was entertaining thanks to a surprise guest.

Moreover, even Lee s.h.i.+n’s method of leaving was peculiar. Less than 3 minutes after the medium sized match between CT and MBS started.

-That build is mixed. CT will win. So I’ll be going.

Build was ‘Build Order,’ which meant the order of buildings in tactics.

A variety of builds existed for each pro team so each build was like rock, paper, scissors. In the end, s.p.a.ce Craft was about hiding their build while fighting to figure out the opponent’s build.

Anyway, the caster and commentator were shocked at the sudden end to Lee s.h.i.+n’s commentary.

-Y-you are going?

-I should leave now before the rush. So please watch until the end.

Then Lee s.h.i.+n left the broadcast booth.

The remaining two were embarra.s.sed but they returned to their professional commentary.

-Ah, Lee s.h.i.+n gave another spoiler before leaving.

Laughter again. Read at Rainbow Turtle Translations

-But hasn’t it been an exciting game thanks to him?

-Yes, the external parts were very interesting. Anyway, I’m glad to see Lee s.h.i.+n after a long time but let’s return to the commentary.

-Yes, there are variables with the build can reverse the situation. We can’t tell until the end of the game.
