Season Finale (1)
The comntators barely had a mont to rest during the fierce battle that unfolded on the bottom lane. And when the results finally ca in, thunderous exclamations erupted.
"Purple has done it! He's won! He's wooooon!"
"Penta kill! Now that's a real, pure pentakill! Purple is the last one standing!!"
"One beat five in a teamfight! I can't believe what I just saw!"
Yet their excitent was nothing compared to the frenzy in the chat window.
― This is a team ga? This is a team ga? Is this a team ga?
-(Kemalcon)(Kemalcon)(Kemalcon)
― Juenjang! Did you just go and do it!?
― One Godple underfed! Who needs five well-fed champs!
-lol For real, he dominated with skill, even underfed lololol
― What's with Mystic going on a rampage!
― Between 1 and 5, 1 is greater—Perfect-Common Sense, right?
― Isn't this exactly what Matjji ant about things escalating?
― Life Hack) If 5 is bigger, just reduce the number by one!
― When's Mystic's raid mode coming out?
-lol Isn't it obvious that five aren't enough if he's stronger than Duke?
The viewers, too, couldn't hide their surprise at the result. The comntators, after a string of awed exclamations, quickly regained composure and continued their analysis.
"This is sothing else entirely from a solo Duke clear! We're not even talking about your average player here; this is Money Damas's team, famous for their legendary synergy!"
"That's right! From the initial surprise attack, money Damas's team showed flawless teamwork—as if one person was controlling five!"
"But incredibly, Purple managed to block every single one of their combos! Honestly, the only way to describe it is as art!"
-lol No wonder martial arts are called martial arts!
― I just stared slack-jawed while watching lol
― You know how people say they get chills from seeing real art? This was exactly that!
-lol Godple is living art, that's all there is to it.
― Seriously, how does he move his body that well?
Hyped up by the comntators, even the chat began to settle down—though the excitent still lingered.
"Man, diego's ultimate, five tis in a row! I always figured that was possible in theory only. Purple just pulled it off!"
"That's right! Diego's ultimate might look easy at a glance, but anyone who's tried knows—it's incredibly hard to pull off!"
"The hardest part is getting to the first target, right? Even using Spirit Suppression, you have to calculate the damage exactly. If you don't kill with the ult, it's all for nothing!"
"But Purple did the math. Five tis, all flawlessly, right?"
At Wanggeom's question, the comntators nodded quickly.
"Exactly. But to use a driving analogy, that's just starting the ignition. Having the car ready to go doesn't an you're moving yet."
"Ah! That's the perfect analogy! Just because you steal the enemy champion, it's not over! You need a deep understanding of that champion to use them properly!"
"Totally! Just turning the key and pressing the gas doesn't an you're driving! You have to know the traffic laws, signs, and how to read signals!"
― Insane analogy lololol
― But it's so true lololol
― Stealing a champion you don't know is the worst kind of trolling lol
― Seriously, if you can't use the champ after stealing, it's slap-worthy
― And trying to drag things out just for the steal? That's certified cringe
― That's why Diego is a true expert pick lol
The viewers showed their agreent, flooding the chat with similar sentints. But there was none of that concern in this fight.
"But as you all saw—how about Purple's performance? He showed skills beyond even the original champion owners!"
"This is sothing younger folks might not know, but back in the day you had to shift gears manually when driving. This is like using automatic and then trying stick—only to drive even better! Can you believe it!?"
"Doing better than the original owners—it must feel like dying twice for the ones on the other side! Like everything you've built up is being taken away!"
-lol, this is why he's the Black Company boss
― Stealing rivals' know-how—that's how Black Company works!
― At this rate, isn't he a silver sun?
― Silver sun, are you nuts lolol
― Honestly, with Diego, godple wouldn't even need to buy other champions lol
-???: Hey, just borrowing this for a sec?
-???: Who said you couldn't?
― Ugh... the trauma...!
-lol, where's my PE uniform?
― Grandmaster's my man!
Checking the chat, wanggeom smoothly shifted the topic.
"You know, a lot of people call Purple a genius. But I'm starting to think that word fits him less and less!"
"Huh?"
"There goes Wanggeom firing up again."
Not wanting to fall for the sa script, wanggeom continued quickly.
"We call him a genius, but I think that's just because us average folks don't know what else to call him!"
"That's right! Genius just isn't enough to describe him anymore!"
"There's a reason we call him Godple. If the world had no religion, people might've believed he was literally a god!"
― What are you saying? He really is a god!
― Isn't he the official religion of Korea?
-lol, it's written right there in Waterlon Scripture
― Why are you bringing up the Waterlon Scripture lol
― How can you not believe this? PerMan kick!
-[PerMan][Purplelelujah]
― If you're Korean, please believe in Godple!
Even as everyone was admiring, the match continued on. The comntators refocused on the ga situation.
"Ah, PerG-Day team's going for an open base. It's too easy!"
"Honestly, it's harder for us to comntate at this point. The result is a foregone conclusion!"
"That's right. Towers and minions can't stop them anymore. Though it's basically over, money Damas's team doesn't even have the energy to type GG!"
With ease, the revived PerG-Day mbers attacked the empty main base.
Finally, as the Temple exploded, the victory ssage appeared.
"There it is! Ga three also goes to PerG-Day!"
"With three wins, PerG-Day is the Grand Final champion of CrazySmurf!"
"Uhwooper gets proven yet again! Congratulations to PerG-Day!"
― Uhwooper! Uhwooper! Uhwooper!
― Science prevails!
― Godple is a god and Uhwooper is truth!
-lol, is this religion or science
― Religion is based on science, that's just common sense!
― Yet again, perfect-Common Sense lol
-5 million won, guaranteed
-???: You should be paying to watch this!
― How far ahead did Geno-sensei see!?
Under a shower of praise from comntators and viewers alike, the ga ended. The screen transitioned, and Wanggeom continued with even more vigor.
"Everyone, I, wanggeom, do not lie! Didn't I say it? This season of CrazySmurf is the best ever! Each set tops the previous record! Will you admit it now!?"
"Ah, there's no denying it! You just have to admit it!"
"As a gar, I truly feel proud to have watched this tournant live."
"Well said! If you watch a rebroadcast, you just can't get the sa thrill or emotion. Everyone watching live is really lucky!"
Wanggeom spoke animatedly, occasionally checking the ti. He was buying ti for the organizers to prepare the final results.
"On community boards, you hear people say: 'You've wasted half your life!'
But honestly, that's not enough for this tournant."
"Not enough?"
"Think about future generations who will never even get the chance to see this live! They lost out not just on half, but on their entire lives because they weren't born in the age of Purple!"
His exaggerated speech had both the comntators and viewers doubled over with laughter.
-lol Wangmyeongsu really dropped a zinger lol
― Now he's worrying about future generations? lol
― Amazingly, he's not wrong lol
― We are truly living in the age of Godple!
― So lucky to be born in this era
― Thank you, parents!
― But why Trooper?
― Hey! Keep up!
― Stop ruining the mood, just go with it
While all this went on, wanggeom received the okay sign. He cald himself for a mont and continued.
"Such an amazing tournant! We have to take a look at the records! Let's check the final results!"
"That's right! The champions this season are none other than PerG-Day! Incredibly, they went undefeated not only in groups but even in public scrims!"
"Exactly! They finished the finals with a clean 3-0! But there's one even more amazing record!"
The screen turned to display the individual stats of the PerG-Day mbers.
And one in particular caught everyone's eyes.
"Wow! Seeing this with my own eyes is just stunning!"
"Kills, deaths, assists—they all show up as numbers. But the KDA? It's blank!"
"You can't calculate KDA with zero deaths! Purple had a perfect score in every match!"
-lol Now that's perfect!
― Seriously, how do you not die even ONCE? lol
― This is true all-ti legend status lol
-lol, what are you going to do about my underwear?
-lol, that's your problem, buddy
Everyone, both the comntary and chat, was bursting with laughter. Wanggeom checked the ti again.
'Still plenty of ti.'
The finals had been scheduled for up to five sets, but ended in just three. Each match had also been shorter than average thanks to PerG-Day's dominance, so there was plenty of ti left.
After reviewing the stats for the runner-up, money Damas's team, wanggeom continued.
"Oh, what amazing records for both teams! We have to hear from them."
"Exactly! You can't just finish the tournant right after winning!"
"But after a historic final like this, the teams must need a break."
"Well said! So, let's take a brief break first, and then bring out the teams for interviews!"
The screen then switched to display the remaining break ti.
* * *
After the break, as promised, the comntators returned to conduct interviews. The first team up was the runner-up, money Damas.
"Team leader Donkak?"
As Wanggeom spoke, the screen focused on Donkak, with the rest of his teammates seated behind him, calm.
"Yes."
"You finished in second place this season. Can you share so final thoughts?"
Wanggeom kept his tone steady, careful not to provoke strong emotions—after all, they had been swept 3-0.
"First of all, I have no regrets."
Fortunately, donkak showed no bitterness and even smiled faintly, as if relieved.
"Ah, let correct that. I do regret Ga 1. That was clearly my mistake in judgnt."
"What do you an by a mistake in judgnt?"
"I never imagined there was soone who could overco the fear effect. If I had researched Purple more closely, I wouldn't have made that call."
Donkak scratched the back of his neck awkwardly before continuing.
"But in Gas 2 and 3, we lost fair and square. We gave it our all, but PerG-Day—especially Purple—never cracked."
"So, you're saying there were no mistakes?"
"That's right. This experience taught that Uhwooper is more than just a . Purple proved it himself."
He then rolled his eyes as if he'd almost said too much.
"Ah, but there is one thing I'm disappointed about. The winner's perk... Actually, I shouldn't ntion it now."
As Donkak bit his tongue, question marks filled the chat.
But Wanggeom quickly eased over it.
"Graciously accepting the result! A display of dignity worthy of last year's champions. Now, it's the mont everyone's been waiting for! We'll interview the winners next!"
With that, the questions faded from the chat. The screen switched to the PerG-Day team.
But unlike Money Damas, they weren't in a waiting room.
-lol The trophy this season looks sick
-lol, with those costus, looks like they're about to steal it
-lol, they look ready to run off with it
― The concept is perfect!
― That's what being cool is all about
The location was the main stage with the championship trophy on display.
"Now, let's hear from the team captain, Geno!"
Geno took the mic. He didn't need a mic, but it helped viewers identify who was talking.
"Well, I don't have any big thoughts."
His matter-of-fact answer filled the chat with more question marks. No feelings, even after winning?
"Science is all about understanding nature, right? Uhwooper and PerG-Day's victory—this is nothing more than 'natural.'"
The comntators couldn't help but remark.
"Ah! That's our all-mouther!"
"Aha! Uhwooper was natural science all along!"
"As a caster, I'm humbled. I really learn a lot from Geno."
― Natural science, my ass lol
― True facts lolol
― He's not Chunom anymore, he's Geno Matta
― Hyung! You finally ca to your senses!?
― Looks like Trchoip's seat is secure lol
As the viewers enjoyed themselves, the mic went to the next mber.
"Short and to the point! Next, let's hear from Eclipse!"
The second interviewee, Eclipse, grabbed the mic, cleared his throat, and steadied his voice.
"I've mostly been alone until now, so striving together toward the sa goal has been a great joy. I'm grateful to my teammates who made this possible."
His words drew a kind of cheer different from Geno's.
"Ah, the icon of chivalry!"
"It really pulls at the heartstrings."
"Camaraderie! That's why we play team gas, for experiences like this!"
― True knights, sir Eclipse ㅠ
― But why are there only crazy people in solo queue?
― Where's Top Syndro? Where's Jungle Diff?
-lol, good thing it's the PerG-Day team
-lol, who cares if the bus is at zero to a hundred?
Wanggeom moved on to the next mber.
"It hardly feels real being here. Many thanks to our boss for letting us 'score' till the end."
"Everyone, Purple Coin is the real deal. Make sure you ride!"
Skullkim and Bakjapcho gave short comnts. After a round of laughter, it was ti for the final speaker.
"And now, the mont everyone's been waiting for—the undisputed star of the tournant! The perfect score in every ga! Let's hear from Purple!"
Wanggeom's tone rose to lift the atmosphere. As Lee Gyeongbok took the mic, he let out a gentle chuckle before speaking.
"It was a truly enjoyable experience."
His simple words drew every teammate's gaze.
"So fans may know this, but when I was younger, I dread of becoming a pro gar."
He rolled his eyes as if recalling the past, then flashed a deeper smile.
"Playing in this tournant, I thought—'So this is what it would've felt like if I'd gone pro.'"
At that, wanggeom and the comntators tilted their heads. The chat reacted the sa way.
Wasn't comparing this to the pros going a bit far?
"Because, crazySmurf is like the Mid Cup of amateur tournants, isn't it?"
But with those words, the mood shifted.
"Ah, that's right! If you think about it, our tournant is just as intense as a world championship!"
"Wow, so Purple's setting up the hosts for a win?"
"Let retract my earlier statent. I have more to learn from Purple than Geno!"
― Is he a genius with words or what!
― A smurf who flatters the organizers in a victory speech!?
― Full-blown capitalism lolol
-lol, capitalism base wave is fundantal
― Mid Cup, lol totally didn't expect that
― Jino-kun! Trchoip's seat is in danger!
-lol, they're all too good, seriously
With the mood brightening, Lee Gyeongbok laughed softly.
"I hope all the viewers enjoyed it as much as I did. Thank you."
― Whoa, just like that, a touching mont?
― You dummy! Always thinking of the viewers!
-5252, what is this, a sentintal gank?
― Touchdown gank, what the lol
― Ganking perfectly, am I right?
― No wonder everyone's falling for him
― Fuck, yeah!
― Hey, not THAT fuck!
As the interview ended, wanggeom continued with a warm smile.
"It's impossible not to be chard. Now, let's move on to the trophy ceremony."
The trophy's glass case was opened. The whole team stood up and surrounded the trophy.
Sharing glances, they grabbed the trophy together.
"Champions, as always?"
"PerG-Day!"
They shouted in unison, holding the trophy high. As they bead, a drone cara swung in.
"Great! That's perfect. Let's get a commorative photo right away!"
A tir appeared above the drone.
The first shot: everyone together holding the trophy; the second: Lee Gyeongbok holding the trophy with the rest posing in adoration.
And for the last, Lee Gyeongbok set down the trophy, and they struck a choreographed group pose.
-lol, are they crazy
― What's with the Geno Special Forces pose lol
― WA! Dragon Ball!
― This must be Geno's idea for sure lol
― Don't wear the full suit and mask like that lol
After the photo shoot, wanggeom, laughter in his voice, continued.
"Ah, truly, this shows exactly why they're so popular."
"They must've practiced these poses expecting to win."
"Not only are they skilled, they've got plenty of showmanship. No wonder everyone's a fan!"
"And with that, this season's finals co to an end."
As Wanggeom spoke, tears began to fill the chat.
-... It's really over now
― Ti flies when you're having fun
― I already miss it ㅠㅠ
― At least I got to see it live lol
― How do I wait for next season?
― Riot Gas, please hold CrazySmurf quarterly!
Regret and longing filled the event's closing monts.
But then—
"Why is everyone so down? I said the finals were over, not the whole tournant."
Wanggeom's words shifted the atmosphere in the chat.
-?
― If the finals are over, what else is there?
― PerG-Day are the winners, right?
― What more could there be?
― Sothing big coming? Sothing big coming?
As confusion built in the chat, the comntators stepped in.
"Don't leave now! There's another reason this season is historic!"
"I was so shocked when I heard—it'll blow the viewers away, too!"
With more people questioning in chat, wanggeom raised his voice.
"A special stage awaits this season! Co on out!"
The screen switched—
The wall behind PerG-Day parted to both sides.
― Huh?
― Why are those guys coming out from there?
― Wth
― TierOne? Why's TierOne here?
― What is happening!
― This really is sothing big!
Behind the wall stood five people in red uniforms—TierOne's pro gars.
At the center, elephant stepped forward with a bright smile.
"Congratulations on your win."
"Thank you."
To Elephant's congratulations, Lee Gyeongbok replied with gratitude, and the rest of the teammates exchanged greetings.
-lol turns out this is why Donkak was disappointed
-lol, if you're a Mystic fan, you can't miss a TierOne appearance
― It's not just about winning—now I'm even more jealous ㅠ
Confirming the chat, wanggeom raised his voice further.
"Amazingly, the tournant isn't over yet! The champions of CrazySmurf and the MCK champions! An exhibition match between TierOne and PerG-Day is about to begin!"
― Huh?
― So they didn't co just to congratulate?
― Insane lololol
― PerG-Day vs TierOne!?
― Champion's match = hype overload lol
-lol, crazySmurf's breaking out big ti this season
― All of a sudden? TierOne? Why!?
― What is going on?
― Sothing big is happening
Chat was a chaos of confusion and delight. After the greetings, elephant took the mic.
"Hello. I'm Elephant, tierOne's jungler."
All eyes were on him as he politely gestured toward Lee Gyeongbok.
"As so know, I owe Purple a great debt. I wanted to repay it, and Purple suggested: 'Why not have an exhibition match with the championship team?'"
On the day of the MCK finals, Lee Gyeongbok had made this request of Elephant.
― This was all Godple's plan?
― A smurf who invites a pro team for an event match!?
― Not just any pro team—it's TierOne, lol
― This is what you call a 'Perfect-Network'?
― Wow, class is just on another level
― And it's not even just PerG-Day, it's the winner's team that gets to play lol
― Even just guesting them on his stream would be huge, but he raised the event's quality for everyone~
― No, it's because he knew he'd win lol
― This is Matta for sure lol
Elephant's view wasn't much different from the viewers.
"He said that, but I fully expected we'd be facing PerG-Day. And unsurprisingly, here we are."
― Ah, so that's why, during the finals interview?
-lol, that "strongest jungler" bit?
-???: "The title of best jungler cos after beating Purple"
― He was alluding to the exhibition match, lol
― I'm the only one whose chest is swelling with excitent?
― Wow, this season is out of control!
All the nostalgia and regret from before vanished in an instant.
"CrazySmurf! The true grand finale of the best-ever season begins! PerG-Day and TierOne, tierOne and PerG-Day!"
Watching the chat heat up again, wanggeom also raised his energy.
"The curtain rises on the season finale!"
