1s | The team on the Road to Masters has been formed! |
---|---|
4s | But why did these three come together? |
5s | I had heard that Nuguri played Eternal Return before, but I didn't know his skill level |
11s | But after we played together I thought |
14s | since we already know each other we could perform better |
17s | I've played a lot of squads with Hoit since Early Access |
22s | It was hard to play together back then because both Hoit and I were pro gamers |
31s | But now, we both have more time |
33s | We were talking about who else to add to our team |
35s | Ha Gwon (Nuguri) also has the pro gamer background and we had heard he is good at playing Shoichi |
40s | We all had experience as former pro gamers in the same game |
44s | That's why we decided to team up |
53s | June 03, 2:00 PM Guro-dong |
56s | (A house with an atmosphere of freedom) |
57s | (Who is the owner of this space?) |
64s | (It's none other than Nuguri Jang Ha Gwon!) |
67s | (Logging into Eternal Return as soon as he wakes up) |
69s | (Checking his score) |
72s | (And then ready to queue) |
77s | Q. What are you doing now? |
78s | I'm practicing Solo queue for Eternal Return to prepare for the tournament |
83s | Q. What is your tier? N: I'm in Mythril right now |
87s | My score fluctuates between 6700 and 7000 |
92s | It's not bad for an average player |
96s | but in tournaments, most players are Titan or Immortal |
99s | so, at this level, it's just a baby score |
104s | To enter the qualifiers, I need to pass the rating cut |
106s | I'm not sure of the exact requirement, since it's based on relative ranking |
110s | But I think I need to go higher than Mythril |
113s | Q. Is there a deadline to raise your tier score? The rating cut is until Thursday (June 13) 6 PM |
117s | By then, I think I need to raise my score to around 7300 |
122s | That should give me a chance |
124s | (The first hurdle to Masters is the rating cut) |
127s | I had a tough time farming legendary items in this game |
138s | Oh, good taunt |
146s | Wow, I just died because I got stunned against the wall |
148s | Discord |
150s | How's it going? Are you doing well? |
152s | It's tough to raise my score these days |
154s | Same, I keep bouncing between Mythril and Titan |
157s | When I play solo queue, I feel like I'm lacking something |
160s | Maybe it's because I play Shoichi but it's difficult |
163s | Solo queue isn't as tough as scrims, so it's okay |
166s | But it's hard to make decisions and strategies in scrims |
170s | Let's focus on raising our rating for now and practice solo queue hard |
175s | Okay, let's test the compositions we discussed in today's scrim |
180s | Yes |
181s | (Back to Solo queue) |
185s | (There are only 10 days till the Rating Cut) |
191s | (The goal is Immortal) |
197s | (Time to decide the name of the team) |
201s | (The three players gather on Discord) |
202s | Does anyone have name suggestions for the team? |
204s | Since we have you Nuguri, it should be related to money |
207s | Money??? |
209s | How about something extreme like |
211s | KimPiTang? (Kimchi, Pizza, Sweet and Sour Pork are foods with strong divided opinions even in Korea) |
213s | What??? |
213s | How's KimPiTang? |
215s | (Laughs) Is KimPiTang good? |
217s | LokeN, what was your team name when you competed before? |
220s | Carpe Diem's good |
222s | Yes, I used it when I competed before |
225s | It means 'seize the day' |
230s | Can we use that? It's good. |
232s | I think we can, no one is using it now |
235s | Carpe Diem is too good |
236s | It sounds like a name that would attract sponsors if we do well |
239s | (The name has been decided: Carpe Diem) |
243s | LokeN: Let's see, their items are weak, we have one legendary |
247s | Oh, they have items |
249s | Walk, walk, walk |
251s | Can you use your ult? |
260s | (Won the fight and got their Mythril items) |
264s | LokeN: I'll just go for them |
266s | (The best team at rushing, LokeN's Tsubame and Nuguri's Shoichi) |
269s | (They see an opponent and they just go in) |
274s | LokeN: Our composition is really good! |
276s | Hoit: It's really good! |
277s | (They can just dash in) LokeN: We're able to just dash without thinking much |
283s | I'll go in |
287s | LokeN: The one in the front |
288s | Nuguri: I can't |
290s | (The Fishing Game Strategy is a Success!) |
294s | LokeN: This time, (I don't have Blink so) I can't do it Shoichi has to do it first |
297s | I'll tell you if I need your ult |
302s | Go, go, go! Forward! |
304s | (Can they get the last win?) |
306s | Nuguri: Slowly x2 |
309s | Isn't this good? |
311s | LokeN: I got Hart |
325s | Nuguri: GOOD! Our 1st first place, nice! |
327s | (A promising composition and good team work) |
343s | (Now they just need to pass the rating cut!) |
350s | (The day of the fateful rating cut) |
354s | (The ratings will be posted soon) |
356s | (Will Carpe Diem be able |
358s | to make the rating cut?) |
361s | Everyone's so high |
364s | I didn't think we would fail |
366s | Why did we fail? |
368s | (Why did the 3 players get eliminated?) |
380s | HJ ENTUS's Flame made it |
385s | How did he do it? |
387s | I think his score is lower than mine |
389s | (His teammates had really high scores) |
393s | (A very disappointing result) |
397s | (Carpe Diem was eliminated from the Qualifiers Rating Cut) |
400s | We prepared hard and practiced a lot |
403s | but we got cut off at the rating cut |
407s | So...we failed |
409s | What should we do, everyone? |
411s | This is an emergency |
413s | Honestly, I didn't expect to fail... |
416s | Really |
417s | Honestly, I thought we might fail the Qualifiers... |
420s | but I didn't think we would fail the rating cut |
425s | Honestly, I didn't expect the cut-off line to be so high |
430s | But I did feel that while scrimming |
433s | I realized it's a real competition |
435s | I felt the games were really intense, especially after just Solo queueing for fun |
438s | I also didn't have a chance to play against official league teams |
442s | So I felt the pressure in every game like I had to hold my breath |
445s | Praying for luck with every wolf we killed |
450s | Hoping it drops something That's what I thought while playing |
451s | It was surreal |
455s | Now it's been 2 weeks, right? |
457s | And I have a new goal for us, that instead of joining now |
460s | we should first get to Titan or Immortal |
462s | There are things unique to Eternal Return |
465s | Like the flow of the game and stuff |
467s | Once we learn more of those things, |
470s | I think we can perform better in the next tournament |
473s | If during the process I feel like I can't do it |
476s | Like I won't make it, then I'll swallow my pride and switch to Alonso |
481s | Seriously |
482s | (Will Nuguri part ways with Shoichi?) |
484s | If I can't reach Titan in 2 weeks |
486s | I'll be the Tank |
487s | Hoit should be the DPS |
489s | That's right, it's the right choice |
491s | Hoit, you should be the DPS |
493s | You deal a lot (of damage) in Ranked games, but did tanking in scrims to match our composition |
497s | Is it your chance now, Hoit? |
498s | If you're the Ranged DPS and Hoit his character |
501s | Then it's better if I am the bruiser or tank |
504s | If we prepare well, we can do better |
507s | I needed a wake up call to improve |
510s | (Eliminated from the rating cut due to an unfortunate score) |
513s | (This time he needs to improve his score!) |
521s | (The game that has made the heart of this pro gamer beat fast again) |
527s | Eternal Return |
532s | (Can they make it into the rating cut this time?) |
537s | (A few days later) |
539s | LokeN: Guys, are you asleep? |
540s | Nuguri: No, solo queueing |
541s | Hoit: No |
541s | LokeN: I've been thinking... |
542s | Nuguri: ?? |
543s | LokeN: Everyone has a 4p roster, right? But we only have 3 |
545s | LokeN: How about we recruit one more player? |
547s | Hoit: (Irem emote) |
548s | Nuguri: (Emma emote) |
