"Before we walked out here," Silas said, "our jungler told us that with her here, we win."
The crowd instantly split between thunderous cheers and aggressive boos.
The livestream chat was similarly divided.
A huge chunk of the audience genuinely believed Team Thunder and Team Inferno had only lost because they were having terrible days, and Team MRX just got lucky.
They felt this way entirely because Maeve had made destroying them look so incredibly effortless.
Because her wins lacked the messy struggle of a fair fight, it gave bystanders a profound illusion:
That Team MRX's opponents were simply fragile garbage.
That Team MRX didn't win the A-group championship with skill, but with blind luck.
And compared to the teams they faced, The Berserkers were the true kings of raw power.
Naturally, Team MRX fans shredded this narrative instantly.
Anyone who claimed Team Thunder and Team Inferno were weak clearly had brain damage.
Not only did the hardcore esports fans back Maeve, but the waves of new fans who had followed her over from the Intelligent Competition broadcast were hyped to see their genius idol dominate a new battlefield.
As both teams settled into their gaming pods, the female host finally asked the question everyone was dying to hear.
"BDR, you previously stated that in a best-of-three format, your opponents never survive to see a game three."
"I'm sure you watched The Berserkers crush their last two opponents."
"Against a team this dominant, do you still believe they won't get a game three?"
Already comfortably seated, Maeve flashed a lazy, devastating smirk toward the host.
"I was grabbing lunch while they were playing, so I didn't actually watch."
The Berserkers' entire roster: "..."
Why did they suddenly feel like absolute dirt beneath her shoe?
A collective gasp rippled through the live audience.
No way.
She was about to face The Berserkers in the grand finals, and she didn't even bother watching their tape?
Wasn't the golden rule of warfare to know your enemy?
BDR was treating them like they didn't even exist!
The host was momentarily stunned by the sheer disrespect of the answer.
