Opening the ga system nu, he put on an accessory, a black mask, to hide his face. It should be enough to avoid their sight, considering he had already hidden his na.
Then, he prepared his livestream. The tournant's rules hadn't forbidden anyone to stream, but there was a special rule where they had to put a 5-minute delay 10 minutes before the tournant to avoid stream snipers who purposely tried to join the strear's ga and ss with them.
'That one is a good rule. I don't want to get trolls in my ga too.'
[Midnight Heist's Tier 2 Tournant! Day 1 Qualifier. #Breeze #Tournant #MidnightHeist #Running]
When everything was set, he imdiately started the stream, and it showed the loading screen. His viewers started to gather.
[Viewers: 11,712]
In just a few seconds, more than 11K people had gathered. They were on ti as usual, even though it was still work hours. From the chat, it seed like there were many new viewers who ca solely to watch the tournant from his PoV.
— I am new here!
— Tier 2 tournant! I am looking forward to watching it
— Loading screen, is the tournant not starting yet?
— To new viewers, welco! Please enjoy your stay!
— Breeze! Breeze! Breeze!
— Win this, Breeze! I know you're excited to get the money reward!
Looking at the ti, Max still had 20 minutes left before he could start his first ga. He thought of greeting his
There was a chance the other strears would find him, so he decided not to change the screen and only lowered the music volu to allow his voice to be heard.
"Hello, guys. First of all, sorry. I have a reason not to show my face now and only use my voice. There are too many people in Midnight Heist's Lobby now, and I am hiding from them. Once I put the 5-minute delay, I will change the screen back to normal. Please be patient."
— Hello! Many people? Are you hunted by any chance?
— Chased even before the ga, eh? Classic Breeze
— [emoji:shocked!] You got chased? Shall we protect you from those people?
— [emoji: shocked!] You will protect Breeze?! I don't believe it! I bet you will jump on him!
— Hehe, just accept your fate. They aren't that bad, I think
— Naahhh, I don't think you should trust anyone in the chat, especially those who want to breed Hutch or be bred by Caesar.
"For so reason, I agree with the last guy in the chat. I would rather hide myself from both my chaser and you guys. It's scary." Max comnted with a trembling voice. "Anyway, I will put a 5-minute delay now. Enjoy the loading screen showing off my handso figure while waiting."
With that, Max went into a setting and increased the music volu again before putting the 5-minute delay. He could finally change the screen after that, as the viewers would only see the loading screen for 5 minutes straight.
However, that didn't an he could stay in one place. He began to walk. Staying in one place would allow the other strears to find him through his livestream.
After the 5 minutes had passed, the viewers were able to see his figure. He didn't say anything, and the chat only followed what he had done 5 minutes before. This would be a silent stream, he thought. There was no direct chat with his viewers, making him a little bit lonely.
And then, at 10 AM, the tournant started.
[Dear midnight dwellers! The ti has co. The tournant section has been opened now!]
The notification from the system rang in the Lobby. Max raised his head before finding a secluded alley to open the ga nu.
"It's ti, guys. Look forward to my amazing performance!" He confidently declared it and pressed the 'Start' in the tournant section.
Dum dum!
A drum beat could be heard, and fiery words appeared in front of his eyes.
[Match found!]
[Map: Urban – Midnight Club.]
[Your role is as… a Thief!]
[Target: Diamond Wine!]
It was fast. Only a second was needed to find a match when it usually took around 30 seconds. This showed how many players participated in the tournant. To be in the top 50 among those players wasn't easy.
Still…
"I am so excited."
The word nervous had long gone from this shaless strear's dictionary.
Max's body was covered in blue light and he was teleported to the starting point outside the club. He looked around and found his four teammates appeared beside him. They also tried to know who they tead up with.
Two of them wore red suits and stocking masks, while one wore a rainbow outfit and a clown mask. The last one was wearing an ape costu with a monkey mask. All of them had Slide Shoes, which allowed them to slide anywhere at an increased speed for 3 seconds.
Adding Max, who wore default costus, it was a slightly balanced team. It would be better to have 2 players with a clown mask to secure the escape route. However, this team's composition was already better than he had hoped.
"Good luck, and have fun." Max greeted the others first, breaking the silence. "May I request sothing selfish? I would be grateful if I am allowed to be the one to steal the target. I swear I will succeed at doing it as long as I have two supports."
The tournant was point based, calculated by how high MMR players gained in the ga.
If one beca an MVP 5 tis in a row, they had a higher chance of advancing to the next qualifier. At least, that was what people thought.
The reality was that being MVP and gaining high MMR weren't unrelated. If that was all he needed, Max would be Tier 4 imdiately instead of Tier 5. From that fact alone, it was clear that being MVP didn't necessarily an having the highest MMR in the match.
Max's idea was simple, just play his best according to his role. That was the best way to get a high MMR.
And looking at his and his teammates' equipnt, it was clear that he was the perfect player to steal the target. However…
"No, I don't think so. My stocking mask and Slide Shoes are the best combination to steal."
" too. Let steal the target."
"Don't underestimate the monkey mask. In this Midnight Club map, the ability to climb up and down will prove to be necessary. I can escape through the rooftop with my mask's ability to climb like a monkey."
"There are many NPCs in this Midnight Club map. I can escape easily using my clown mask."
…The others had different opinions. They thought that successfully stealing the item would make them the MVP.
While that way of thinking wasn't wrong, it would only give the police players so advantage. Teamwork was needed in this ga.
Max sighed in defeat. He was faced with two facts. The first was…
'This ga might be harder than I initially thought.'
Another fact was sothing that he didn't take into account.
'Playing as a police officer might give a higher MMR than being a thief because it needs more individual skill than a thief, which needs good teamwork. What an unbalanced tournant.'
From this mont on, everything was left to the Goddess of RNG. May he be police in the next ga to avoid this shitty discussion with his teammates.
