Ti Warfare – Victory Prediction
Event day, gGG official channel.
When broadcast ti arrived, Jung Soyoon, the caster, bowed deeply along with the comntators on either side of her.
"Hello! Gars who love Gunner Ground! I'm Jung Soyoon, your host for the GGG massive update special event, 'Ti Warfare'!"
― Imo! Lift the shutters, quick!
― Kya lol look at that studio concept
― Is this the future?
― I did my overti in advance for today!
Along with the greeting, the viewers' chat ssages stread up rapidly. As the comntators finished their introductions, Jung Soyoon quickly grabbed the mic.
"Wow, over 40,000 viewers right from the start. So many people have been waiting for this event match. But before we begin, let briefly explain today's update."
As she spoke, her image shrank, and data footage appeared on the screen.
― Ah lol GGG is bad at this
-lol should make Jung-caster bigger and shrink the info screen
― Hurry up and show Soyoon-imo!
― I can just read the patch notes!
As the playful complaints from the viewers continued, Jung Soyoon started her explanation in a voice full of laughter.
"Alright, even if you want to see my face, please be patient and hold on a bit. The new updated event mode, 'Ti Warfare'! As you can tell from the na, it's an event related to ti, right?"
"Yes, that's correct. It's inspired by the legendary title, 'Eliminator', which everyone knows."
― That's the work that showed the younger one can rival the older one...!
-lol Eliminator 2 was the real deal
― I'll be back is eternal truth
― Fact: 'I'll be back' wasn't said when he went into the furnace
― Huh? What are you talking about?
― Why'd this happen?
While viewers chatted about movies, the data footage changed.
"The existing Gunner Ground matches were all PVP, right? But this ti, there's an additional enemy from the future, killernoid. By adding PVE to PVP, you can experience a greater variety of battles."
"Moreover, these Killernoids are a real ga-changer. Unlike other players, they're robots and really hard to take down. And they even use weapons brought from the future."
"We received advance info on the weapons since we're comntators. But really, is it okay for them to be this strong? The firepower is incredible!"
"But as they say, with high risk cos high return! If you defeat a Killernoid, you can randomly obtain one of their weapons."
With her remarks, images of Killernoids and their weaponry appeared— pulse rifles, railguns, laser swords, and other gadgets you'd only expect from an SF ga.
― Ah lol would a level 3 helt even survive those?
-lol Isn't this way too broken?
― Made them blatantly OP lol
― This is full-on mode that encourages teaming up
― GGG's balancing skills are as always
The chat's mood started to tilt negative, but Jung Soyoon didn't get flustered.
"Okay, but no matter how good the gear is, it works only if the player using it is skilled, right? Just because farming went well doesn't an you'll get to eat Korean beef."
-lol so true
― As expected of Soyoon-imo!
-lol if you give it to the Troopers it's just pearls before swine
― Real pigs among Troopers, wow!
-lol what's your ham-highest?
― Mysterious splash damage, stop!
Successfully shifting the mood, she moved on naturally.
"Now, let's see if these weapons can really make a difference! Let introduce the influencers participating this ti!"
With that, a hundred logos appeared on screen, representing the channels of the hundred participants organized into twenty-five teams.
"A hundred participants! Every single one is a big na. But only one team can take ho the prize of twenty million won!"
― So that's 5 million per person?
-5 million won for a single ga LOL
― So jealous ㅠ
― But the hidden mber's marked with a ? again
-lol, they're ruthless
― Just reveal all the mbers already!
As the last mber for each team remained hidden, viewers clamored. Jung Soyoon held up her hand, calming the crowd.
"Everyone, this event isn't just for these folks, you know. GGG has prepared a special event for viewers like you who are watching the broadcast right now."
"Yes, that's right. Everyone picked from this event will get a newly updated skin as a gift."
"In a skill-based ga like Gunner Ground, skins are a big deal, right? You just can't resist, honestly."
Even the comntators chid in to stress the point. The chat, now full of pledges of loyalty and '^^7' salute emoticons, began to flood.
She continued with a smile.
"Participating in the event is very simple. Just vote on which of these 25 teams will take first place. But the hidden mber is revealed only after voting closes!"
Soon a voting poll and a list of the 25 teams' nas went up, and the chat beca even more energetic.
― Lol what a crazy variable
― GGG really put so thought into this
― So we're judging by just the three revealed mbers?
― Ah... this one's tough
-lol honestly, there are so teams you can exclude right away
― HOXY are you crazy?
― Elimination thod, here we go
― If you don't know, just vote for PerG-Day
While viewers voted, Jung Soyoon and the comntators couldn't afford to rest.
"This is a really hard vote. Comntators, could you explain what viewers should consider?"
"This ti, you shouldn't focus solely on PVP. The real core is the Killernoid, as we showed earlier."
"That's right. Typically, you'd bet on strong, aggressive teams. But that could backfire."
"If you go into combat straight away, your team might get knocked out early. That's what you're saying, right?"
- Nuh-uh~ I'm still voting PerG-Day
― If it's Godple, they'll just win anyway
― All in! Let's go!
― Wait, 40,000 skins being given out?
-'That's sothing I shouldn't have done~ but I didn't know~'
― Troponji's food is what LOL
― I can hear it, I can hear!
The vote ended.
Jung Soyoon glanced slyly and nodded.
"Okay, the vote just ended. What were the results? Let's reveal them right now!"
[Event 1st Place Prediction]
[1. PerG-Day – 58.8%]
[2. Peach Brothers – 33.2%]
[3. Hit And Run – 5.1%]
...
[25. EagleIsEagle – 0.0%]
The voting results appeared on the screen.
Jung Soyoon and the comntators opened their eyes wide.
"Wow, the votes are way more skewed than I expected! Viewers picked Team PerG-Day as the winner!"
"I figured it'd be first or second, but I never thought it'd go past the halfway mark."
"It's definitely because of the recently spotlighted Purple, the veteran force Geno, and the total wildcard Eclipse on the team."
While the comntators understood the phenonon, the viewers all reacted with their own kind of shock.
― Wait, perG-Day only got that much?
-lol, are only half of viewers Korean!
― But TBH, Eclipse is too much of a variable
― If it weren't for Eclipse, it would've been a total sweep
― With that combo, peach Brothers is actually a more stable bet
― If skins are at stake, gotta go big Peach
― Any team with Blind Duck Ga Room is guaranteed last place lol
-lol isn't flat 0.0% just public humiliation?
― Should've at least added a mosaic
― It's only 0.0 because of rounding, soone did vote for them lol
Viewership neared 45,000. Jung Soyoon cleared her throat and pushed on.
"So, were the viewers' choices correct? Now, it's ti for team interviews and to reveal the hidden mbers!"
Interview order went from lowest to highest vote-getters.
"For ti's sake, interviews will only be with each team leader. EagleIsEagle's team leader, blind Duck Ga Room?"
With her call, the screen split, showing a waiting room setup like a remote live feed.
〈Yes... This is Blind Duck Ga Room.〉
"Ah, your voice is just so pitiful right now. You seem really disappointed by the results."
〈No, not at all. It's fine. Everyone already knows I'm lacking.〉
"If you say so, we'll move right along."
〈Huh? Wait...!〉
"Care to share your determination or aspirations for the event?"
-lol classic Soyoon-imo!
― Handled the grievance perfectly
― A man who cannot earn anyone's trust!
-0% man, blind Duck Ga Room!
― It's already so funny
The interviews proceeded smoothly.
Jung Soyoon treated each team leader according to their own character, and the leaders responded naturally.
〈How about we take out the Killernoid first and fight each other after? Please.〉
〈This event... it's all about the gear, only the gear!〉
〈Let's just say, extre patience is the answer. That's the summary.〉
〈Loyalty, godPako! Our team will betray humanity.〉
The mid-to-lower-ranked teams gave answers focusing more on entertainnt.
But once it hit the top ten, the vibes shifted.
〈Killernoid? The real killers are us.〉
〈We might need to cooperate, but I can't promise anything. I pull the trigger automatically.〉
〈I was going to take it easy, but I don't like our ranking, so...〉
Determined and aggressive spirits showed. Then it was ti for the 2nd place team, peach Brothers, to give their interview.
"Team Peach Brothers' leader, big Peach? Is the interview alright? Please introduce yourself."
〈Yes, hello. I'm Big Peach.〉
Chat imdiately exploded.
― Big Peach! Big Peach! Big Peach! Big Peach!
― So chill lol
-lol, with all those tournant wins, why would he be nervous
― Yep, he's a GunG big-shot smurf all right
― How many subs now?
― Over two million, right?
― Last tournant, wasn't it 2.04 million?
Big Peach always placed in the top three in GGG-hosted strear tournants.
He also hosted his own tournants, making Gunner Ground his main content as a strear.
"With a 33% vote share, one out of every three viewers expects Peach Brothers to win. Thoughts?"
〈You're making a mistake.〉
His reply drew question marks in the chat; even Jung Soyoon and the comntators looked surprised.
〈Our chance of victory is 100%, but the prediction is at 33%? That's a clear mistake!〉
-lol, the confidence!
― Listen to that voice! Living up to the na
― That's what makes Big Peach "Big Peach"
-lol, the loudest person wins
Jung Soyoon laughed and pressed on.
"Your vocal power really stands out. How will you correct the viewers' error—what's your determination?"
〈Today's an event, but I'm dropping all the cody; I'm going full docuntary.〉
Big Peach's face hardened as he spoke.
〈Especially with Team PerG-Day, we will definitely settle this!〉
"Oh? Is that a declaration of war?"
〈That's right! But among them, I'll be sure to defeat Purple!〉
With that declaration and ntioning Purple, the chat erupted.
-????
― Did sothing happen between Big Peach and Purple?
― They don't even know each other, right?
-lol, haven't even t
― What is this foreshadowing?
With no connection between them, Jung Soyoon felt she had to ask as a caster.
"Any particular reason for singling out Purple?"
〈, big Peach! I've always prided myself as the icon of the warrior ta in GunG.〉
He spoke like an orator, adjusting his tone.
〈But after Purple showed up! After his amazing performance was revealed! I had to give up that spot to him!〉
-lol, no one can deny that
-lol, seeing OTP and Godple play is just a massacre
― Once you've had the top, no others suffice!
The viewers agreed: even within the sa ta, Purple's dominance was next level.
〈I've waited to reclaim my honor! If it's Purple, with his skills, he would reach my rank—Master—in a flash! I figured we'd clash then! But what happened?!〉
Big Peach glared and shook his fist.
〈He just switched to another ga!〉
The chat burst into laughter.
― Big Peach takes a mystery L lol
-lol, that's right, after duo ranking Platinum with PerG-Day, he just quit
― Switched gas instantly, huh?
― Can't they just contact each other for a 1v1?
― Master challenging a Platinum? Have so dignity lol
Jung Soyoon grasped the scene and wrapped it up.
"So this is your opportunity to reclaim your honor as the original warrior, right?"
〈Exactly! With my chosen best mbers—and our secret hidden mber—we will win! I believe it firmly!〉
"That was a resolution truly worthy of Big Peach. Now, let's et Peach Brothers' storied hidden mber! Revealing now!"
With Jung Soyoon's words, the question-marked image cleared.
The comntators' jaws dropped.
"This is...!?"
"Isn't that... Soldier A!?"
― Wow, is that really Soldier A?
-loool they actually brought in a real special forces guy
― Wait;;; why's soone who's only been on TV here
― Was Soldier A a strear?
― No, he doesn't stream
― But he's a Q-tuber, so technically an influencer, lol
Soldier A.
A Q-tuber who'd served in special forces, deployed abroad, and studied military science—a genuine professional.
― So Soldier A's gonna give orders now, huh
― We'll see real military command in action?
-lol can't resist real combat experience
― Skin 77uck!
― Anyone who didn't bet on Peach Brothers is a fool
― Honest folks, are you sane yet? Are you sane yet?
― So comfy~
― Secret mber (truly secretive)
Those who voted Peach Brothers now felt sure of victory. Voters for PerG-Day grew anxious.
― Wow, even the PerG combo might have trouble with this
― I thought they could still win with Eclipse but...
― This combo is really tough
― No! I believe in Purple Coins!
― Amo-ran-ata!
― Don't forget that PerG-Day also has a hidden mber!
Jung Soyoon skimd the chat and wrapped up the interview.
"Yes, thank you, big Peach! Truly fierce resolve from a championship contender. Now, finally, let's et Team PerG-Day!"
The screen shifted to Geno. He too must have watched the interviews, but looked unfazed.
"Hello, geno!"
〈Hello! I'm Geno, the man who's skilled at gas at a genetic level!〉
― Here we go again!
― Please stop doing your intro, even for the event! lol
― This man feels no sha
― Viewers feel the embarrassnt for him
― That's not Geno, that's Genos, folks!
― Yet Soyoon-imo gets it right away and laughs!
Geno continued with a lifted corner of his mouth.
〈Just joking. Honestly, I want to thank Peach Brothers' hard work.〉
"Thank them?"
〈Yes. No matter what, it's just an event match, isn't it? As you can see from the vote, if a victory is too one-sided, the organizers also struggle.〉
― Look at him talking!
― Bragging mode ON!
― Event entry activated lol
― True audio ranker, eh?
-lol, the duo Platinum with Godple was all thanks to his banter
The viewers enjoyed his taunts.
"So, does that an you think the ga just got tougher?"
"Soldier A's participation isn't a trivial matter."
"You know you could get embarrassingly outplayed, right? Immortalized in form?"
Jung Soyoon and the comntators all chid in.
Still, geno remained confident.
〈Immortalized? I think you've chosen the wrong word. In this context, we don't say 'immortalized', we say 'commorated.'〉
"Wow, really as befits a number-one team. Your confidence is sothing else."
"Even with Purple and Geno, Eclipse is basically a newbie, right? Is your hidden mber really enough to compensate for that gap?"
〈Oh yeah, really, much more than enough.〉
The comntators expressed both admiration and doubt. Only Jung Soyoon wore a mysterious smile.
― Our man never says anything without reason
― What secret weapon did you prepare!
― Spill it now!
― Is sothing big coming? Big reveal incoming?
Jung Soyoon looked out at the chat, smiling brightly.
"Alright! Let's hear detailed resolutions after you reveal your mber. So, who is Team PerG-Day's last, fourth mber? Revealing now!"
A spinning question mark appeared. Then behind it—a man holding an apple.
"This is..."
"Huh? What is this?"
The comntators were montarily stumped, but the viewers imdiately recognized it.
-?
― I've seen this sowhere before
― Newton? Is that Newton?
― Could it be?
It was a portrait of Isaac Newton. The mont that na appeared in chat—
〈Our fourth mber for Team PerG-Day is none other than NewtonLord!〉
Geno's announcent ignited the chat.
― You actually recruited NewtonLord?
-lol what on earth
― NewNunna? NewNunna is here!?
― Nunnaaaaaaaa
― Does this make sense?
-(Kemalcon)(Kemalcon)(Kemalcon)
― This changes everything lol
― PerG-Day with NewNunna?
― New PerG-Day! New PerG-Day! New PerG-Day!
― Purge party! Purge party! Purge party!
― The honest will win! The honest will win! The honest will win!
― No one didn't invest in Purple Coin!
― Suckers who bet on the upset, you're stuck now!
As the chat spiked and lagged, Jung Soyoon and the comntators filled the audio space.
"There's a freezing issue because so many chats suddenly poured in. Viewers, please understand—it's that big of a surprise."
"NewtonLord—as in, that NewtonLord? The one we know?"
"Caster Jung Soyoon?"
"It's true! When I first saw the list, I reacted just like the two of you."
Only Jung Soyoon had prior knowledge of the hidden mber; the comntators shook their heads in disbelief.
But as pros, they soon regained composure.
"This... this really leaves the outco wide open."
"Yes, newtonLord, the skills are absolutely amazing—but is he suited for team play? That's another matter."
"Exactly. Team PerG-Day already has Eclipse as a variable, and now NewtonLord is another unknown. It's hard to judge."
"Honestly, as soone who's comnted on many matches, it's never been this hard to call."
Excited, they spoke over each other until Jung Soyoon gently raised a hand to calm them.
"Hold on, the interview isn't over. We haven't heard Team PerG-Day's resolution. Let's resu analysis later; Geno, are you still there?"
〈Yes, the comntators are saying it's hard to judge, but I don't get it. You only have to rember three syllables.〉
"Three syllables?"
Geno grinned.
〈Uhwooper—as in, perG-Day always wins. It's science, you know?〉
-lol, but that's Purple's catchphrase!
― Slipping it over to PerG-Day, sneaky!
― Geno, you again?
― Geno's leeching skills are legendary lol
― Truly draining at the genetic level
― Having a lifeti zero-to-hero bus pass lol
― So jealous of his permanent pass
With the chat stabilizing, reactions flooded in. Before Jung Soyoon could say anything, geno continued.
〈What, you don't know teamwork? Shouldn't you praise such unity! If Purple wins, so do we...〉
"And that concludes Team PerG-Day's resolution. Truly, it's been nonstop surprises."
As she spoke, geno disappeared, and the screen returned to normal.
― Geno's audio cut!
― Soyoon-imo, nice cut!
― This is peak Jung-caster
― This event is legendary from the start lol
-lol, can't take my eyes off this
Jung Soyoon glanced at the chat's mood and bead.
"It's ti to finally start the event matches. Now that all hidden mbers are revealed, teams can revise their strategies. So, we'll take a five-minute break."
A tir appeared onscreen.
"And viewers, if you open the extended chat nu, you can select the cam you want to watch. But since way more viewers showed up than expected, the cam-switch delay's been set to ten minutes. Please understand, and we'll see you in five!"
The screen darkened and the new mode's guide video rolled.
But the viewers' interest was elsewhere.
― Ah lol, it's gotta be PerG-Day cam
― This tournant is truly legendary
― Team-up between NewtonLord and Purple? Unmissable!
― The teacher-student combo is always right
― Actually curious how Eclipse will play lol
― What if PerG-Day cam gets a one-hour delay at this rate?
― For real, at least watch the team you voted for
-lol, this is how it's done
― You actually believed that? Trooper kick!
What the audience ca for was not the new event.
