The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting
Chapter 111: Catching Crayfish While Digging a Ditch (2)“Nice to see you, everyone. You’re all here to watch the Japanese get thrashed, aren’t you?”
Since time was tight, the broadcast started immediately.
Maybe it was because it was at the pre-scheduled time, but people entered my broadcast right away.
– Shaha
– I came in because they said a legendary scene would be recreated here today.
– Came after seeing the <Nowadays> article… ^^
– You look good.
– Isn’t today the filming day for Nowadays?
– How did you manage to stream at this time? Did filming finish early?
Everyone was curious about how I managed to start the broadcast on time.Since today was an official day off, it was understandable.
I gave a sly smile and lightly nodded.
Today’s broadcast was conducted in a somewhat different manner from my usual way of directly controlling the streamer board.
All the rights to broadcast were in the hands of PD Sung.
It might be said to be the tyranny of the production crew, but in reality, it was entirely different.
Because.
<Hello, Evil Gang members!>
<We also plan to stay right next to you without going home today!>
<We ordered chicken and are watching, hehe>
<Please cheer for our Chan-sik a lot!>
They deliberately included other cast members on the screen.
A new concept of broadcasting that combined the game screen with real-world filming equipment.
Like a professional game league, the reactions of the live audience were simultaneously broadcasted through my stream.
This composition was born entirely from PD Sung’s idea.
Whenever I wanted, I could see the reactions of the <Nowadays> cast on the right side of my screen.
Was it because this kind of scene switch was not easily seen in live broadcasts?
The viewers’ reactions were much hotter than I expected.
It wasn’t simply because celebrities appeared.
It was because it was an unfamiliar spectacle for them.
– Wowㅋㅋ
– What’s with the Nowadays cast screen?
– Cutting-edge technology ㄷㄷㄷㄷ
– Eating chickenㅋㅋ
– It’s great to see such good content these daysㅎㅎ I love this broadcast because of Queen Se-yeon and Joo-hyun.
The reaction wasn’t bad.
Satisfied, I checked the chat window and quickly proceeded.
“As you all know, our first opponent in this East-West tournament is Japan. Just do as you always do, and don’t worry too much.”
By now, Japanese content might have become a monthly event rather than an annual one.
Sadly, such opportunities arose whenever things were quiet.
It was a situation that couldn’t be happier for a broadcaster.
The games to be used in today’s tournament had already been drawn.
Round 1: <League of Storms>, Round 2: <Samurai Wars>, and Round 3: <Samurai Wars>.
It wasn’t a particularly good draw for the Korean team.
Among the three games selected for the tournament, the only one in which Korea had a strong field was <League of Storms>.
Even if we secured a solid win in the first round, we couldn’t guarantee victory with rounds 2 and 3 being <Samurai Wars>.
…Of course, that was the objective perspective.
I looked at the draw table with interest and said.
“Wow, it’s been a while since I played Samurai Wars properly. I heard they’ve patched it a lot since then… It’s a wonder it hasn’t gone under yet, right?”
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– Yeah, next permabanㅋㅋ
– How would you participate in the tournament if you’re banned?
– The game company provided special tournament accounts to prevent cheating.
– If it weren’t for this East-West tournament, you wouldn’t even dream of playing Samurai Wars.
The viewers were right.
If not for this opportunity, the last time I played <Samurai Wars> would have been the last VR Star.
According to what Sung-jae mentioned in passing, the developers of <Samurai Wars> had lobbied hard to be included in this tournament as their last-ditch effort.
The potential number of players in Northeast Asia, including China, was enormous.
It could be seen as a last-ditch resuscitation attempt for a game already on its way out.
Of course, I was the only one who knew this.
However, <Samurai Wars> had never once apologized to Korean players, even after my ban.
Maps with malicious intent, such as <Yasukuni Shrine> and <Takeshima>, were still used in the overseas version.
Originally, the Korean team should have boycotted it, but I planned to ruin the game in a different way.
Avoiding it because it’s dirty, not because it’s scary.
“Let’s go meet the team members.”
Before starting <League of Storms>, there was a program called <Skycode> that connected players in virtual reality space.
As soon as I ran the program, the surroundings changed, and soon my team members for this event appeared along with the blue sky symbolizing <Skycode>.
They were all people I had some acquaintance with.
They waved at me cheerfully as I joined.
“Shia, niiim!”
“Daaamn! Shia, you’re so late!”
“Haha, hello everyone?”
Among the streamers from Twipod were two from Paprika TV, active in the neighboring area.
Since the concept was that the representative live streaming platforms in Korea were allying to fight against the opponents together, the members were naturally fitting.
From Twipod, there was top-liner me, ADC Comul-Jwi, and mid-laner King Jong-woo.
From Paprika, there were jungler Just Do It and support Hye-seong.
Except for Comul-Jwi and King Jong-woo, they were all ranked challengers.
I warmly shook hands with the members from Paprika.
I wasn’t entirely unfamiliar with them.
I had met and talked with them separately during the last VR Star.
They also greeted me warmly.
“Has the president of Twipod arrived?”
“President is too much…”
“If I get kicked out of Paprika later, please help me settle in Twipod. I also want a solid backing like hearty soup.”
Just Do It, aka Jeo-doo, showed his trademark wit and said to me.
He’s usually quite calm outside, but he becomes very stubborn once in the game.
Effective communication was needed.
– The jungle is definitely Jeotyu-bu.
– Rightㅋㅋㅋ
– Is Just Do It good, or is Seong-shin good?
– Definitely Seong-shinㅋㅋ Seong-shin’s value skyrocketed thanks to recent issues.
– Trueㅋㅋ How can you compare a pro to an amateur?
– Haven’t you seen Seong-shin’s recent rank records? Soon, he’ll catch up to Our-Ak.
Well… we didn’t need to worry much about League of Storms.
Even though League of Storms had recently become popular in Japan, it was still not on par with Korea or China.
I nodded leisurely.
Ah, right.
Before we started the game, I had to get prior consent from our team’s jungler.
“Hey, Just Do It.”
“Yes, Shia.”
“You know from our solo queue match… I tend to get a bit intense in the game, right?”
“Ah…”
Alright, that should be enough to establish dominance, right?
Soon, it was time to start the match.
Let’s start the first round with an easy win.
4.
The first round through League of Storms went just as we expected.
Game time: 17 minutes.
Total score: 34 to 0.
A one-sided victory for the Korean team.
Of course, out of the 34 kills, 19 were mine.
– JUMOOO!
– The man who performs better with a bomb necklace around his neckㅋㅋ
– At this point, shouldn’t he be recognized as a national hero? Seriouslyㅋㅋ
– Kim Chan-sik the doctorㄷㄷ
– Honestly, the Japanese streamers were just terribleㅋㅋ How do you win when every lane is collapsing?
The viewers’ reactions were enthusiastic.
Korea vs. Japan matches were practically guaranteed to be a hit in any field.
Thanks to that, the Twipod viewers I had turned on quickly surpassed 100,000.
The <Nowadays> cast, who were watching the match while eating chicken outside, were actively promoting it on SNS as well.
“Phew.”
I exhaled lightly and stepped out of the capsule for a moment.
The second match, scheduled to be Samurai Wars, would start in 15 minutes.
As soon as I stepped out of the capsule, the <Nowadays> cast, who had been enjoying a lively party in front of my capsule, cheered while waving chicken drumsticks.
“Wow… Chan-sik, you’re really good. I think you’d be great as a pro gamer.”
Actor Yoo Joon-sik, who was still a bit awkward with me, said with an awkward smile.
But I could see he was genuinely enjoying himself.
I was grateful that they were having so much fun watching my broadcast.
“I actually get offers from pro teams when I’m bored.”
This was true.
Quite a few pro league teams had sent me love calls.
I just turned them all down.
I glanced at the chicken on the table.
The world had improved so much that I spotted a chicken full of drumsticks.
Feeling a bit peckish, I grabbed a drumstick and nodded while biting into it.
The screen installed on one side of the capsule clearly displayed my broadcast.
The video was being broadcasted through the camera.
Se-yeon and Joo-hyun, holding signs that said “Shia Fighting!”, seemed to have made them somewhere.
Hmm.
It looked good.
– What’s with the chicken mukbang?
– Only eating drumsticks, bourgeoisieㄷㄷ
– As expected, world class is different in many ways.
– I just ordered and ate a whole chicken myself.
– Honestly, even if he doesn’t do game broadcasts, he’d be great at mukbang… Please add some content on AkTube.
– He’s eating like a barbarian.
Mukbang content.
I always felt that the more diverse the content, the better.
I should discuss it with the editor, Sung-jae.
As the short break came to an end, Joo-hyun came over and asked me.
“Chan-sik oppa.”
Why do I feel uneasy whenever she calls me oppa like this?
But I couldn’t show it.
I forced a smile and looked at Joo-hyun.
“Yeah.”
“Fighting.”
Ah, it was just a word of encouragement.
I was almost startled.
Before going back into the capsule, I glanced at PD Sung.
Then PD Sung, who was overseeing the filming from behind, gave me a thumbs-up to boost my morale.
Honestly, the first round wasn’t that intense.
My teammates, subdued by my presence, followed my lead.
However, the second round was a completely different situation.
We were actually at a disadvantage.
Although the other four members had practiced Samurai Wars beforehand, they were still lacking compared to the former pros on the opposing team.
“PD Sung!”
I called out loudly, and PD Sung immediately approached.
“Yes, Chan-sik.”
“From the second round, I might not be able to restrain myself…”
“Ah, we’ve already prepared for that.”
As expected, a capable PD.
After lightly greeting the cast and crew, I returned to the capsule.
And immediately launched Samurai Wars.
It had been a while since I last saw the intro video of Samurai Wars.
Following the flashy video of ninjas and samurais clashing, the account login screen appeared.
[Activating the account created for the ‘Northeast Asia Streamer Tournament’!]
[Please choose your account nickname.]
Well, what could go wrong?
There was only one nickname I would use in Samurai Wars.
“RepacMan.”
[Is the nickname <RepacMan> correct?]
A shortened version of Little Boy PacMan.
Wasn’t it the nickname everyone expected?
As I decided on the nickname without hesitation, the chat window heated up again, and I smirked and said.
“RepacMan returns, you bastards.”
