In the losers bracket, the opposing teams didn't seem to have any qualms about the Wildcats taking in Dorian as a sub when they got matched against them.
They already got news of Dorian being a newbie and also didn't want to simply infuriate the Wildcats.??
But even if Viktor played along with the Wildcats against the other teams, he hardly had a presence at all. He either sacrificed himself to get information about the enemies' whereabouts or let himself get used as bait to let his teammates kill their enemies.
The Wildcats were winning gas against the other teams, dominating the losers bracket, and they realized that having Dorian on the team was indeed a good thing since it made things easier for them.
At least they were able to react quicker in the ga based on his information.
Viktor was using this ti to morize the maps, listen to their strategies and the terms or jargon they use in-ga.
After a ga ends, he learned that the teams say 'GG' to each other, which ans a good ga or 'GGWP' for a good ga, well played.
Finally, the Wildcats made their way through the loser's finals and even won it. Of course, Viktor didn't do much, but he did get in so 'lucky' kills, and Tiana and her teammates congratulated him for getting these kills, considering how he only got into the ga today.
Tiana felt as if he was making considerable improvents after each ga, but nothing ga-changing, at least not sothing that could tip things in their favor against the Beast n.
Still, they felt that he might have the potential to beco a pro, and after all these wins, they were regaining their confidence, filled with brimming energy to defeat the Beast n.
Of course, so of the gas they won were close shaves, yet they pushed together for a win, and Viktor was impressed by the various strategies Tiana and her team were coming up with.
It was as if they were in the middle of real gunfire and strategizing fast to deal with their enemies on the spot.
There was ti for lunch, but Tiana and her teammates were too hyped up to eat and were practicing during that ti. Viktor also joined them even if they said it was okay for him to have lunch.
Viktor had his fill of delicious blood yesterday night and today morning, so right now, he wasn't really hungry at all.
John felt a bit intimidated seeing how the Wildcats made their way up and frowned. In fact, even in his first match against the Wildcats, he was shocked by how close they were to winning.
But he felt that the main reason was that he was too overconfident about them having a missing teammate, which led to them lowering their guard and playing casually.
He took that as the reason why the Wildcats were able to push through and scoffed, seeing how they seed so eager about defeating his team.
Finally, as many people expected, the Beast n survived till the finals and were up against the Wildcats, who made a great coback from the loser's bracket.
He already ca up with new strats and practiced a lot in between with his teammates for his upcoming ga.
People were prepared to film the whole ga and post on streaming sites and social dia since they were all very hyped about this particular match. It was not only because it was the finals but mostly because of the deep stakes involved between the two teams.
They all wanted to see who would co out on top and win the bet. They knew that these two teams had a lot to lose other than just losing the chance to make it to the nationals.
In fact, more and more people were entering the cafe who ca just to watch the ga in person. Even editors and famous people with a social presence in the city ca to witness and record the match of the year.
Of course, the number of online viewers on the official stream was phenonal enough to garner more attention.
Even the players themselves, both in Tiana's and John's teams, were quite nervous and had their hands becoming cold with tension.
Tiana looked at Dorian, who didn't seem to be in much tension at all, and whispered with knitted brows, "Why do you seem so calm? Are you not worried about our victory?"
Viktor gave a natural smile and said, "My mother told to never worry about things I believe in. And I believe in the Wildcats, in you...to win this ga. So even if I feel nervous about playing with you guys in such a big tourney, I am not worried about the outco."
Tiana felt warmth spreading through her chest, seeing how Dorian had so much faith in her, and even if countless others had praised her abilities, for so reason coming from him, she felt that it was wholeheartedly and that he really believed in her.
Viktor indeed felt that Tiana and her teammates probably wouldn't even need his help, seeing how their current ntal state was fired up enough to deal a significant blow to the Beast n.
He felt that the main reason they even lost against them in the first match was that their minds were filled with certainty and doubt about winning the ga 4 v 5.
But now he saw how their ntal states had undergone a significant change after winning all the previous matches.
Still, of course, he knew that the Beast n would also adapt accordingly and change their thods.
Tiana wanted to thank Dorian, but she found it hard to utter those words. And so, her cheeks slightly beca pink as she softly smiled at him before turning away.
However, strangely enough, now she was feeling more confident and wasn't feeling the nervousness from before. She again glanced at Dorian, feeling as if his presence alone was giving her so sort of strength, even if she knew he might not be able to make a huge impact in the ga as a beginner.
Viktor subtly smiled and focused on his computer as he got into the server.
Even though John was feeling nervous, he was also very excited thinking about the things that were going to happen after his victory, especially how the famous and hot Wildcats were going to bow to him, especially the proud and cold Snow Queen.
He also knew that if the Wildcats refused to follow through with the bet, then they might even have to shut down their streaming because of the possible backlash after losing their credibility. He felt that they wouldn't be too thick-skinned to continue streaming after sothing like that.
So either way, he was satisfied as long as he won and saw the Wildcats go down.
But suddenly, he felt as if soone was looking at him and saw Dorian looking at him with a calm smile.
Even though the smile seed friendly to him, it seed like the premonition of sothing not good. He didn't know why but for a mont, he felt as if a devil was smiling at him.
He then shook his head, thinking that the tension was getting to him since otherwise, he would never even bother to worry about a noob affecting his ga.
The warmup was over soon, and Viktor saw two words pop up on his screen, "MATCH START!"
