Punch (1)

Men's Division, match 1, starter showdown.

Daedam and Skullkim stepped onto the stage.

At the unfolding situation, Jung Soyoon and the commentary team couldn't keep their mouths shut.

"Ah! Could this be due to the women's division's victory?! Skullkim is pressing hard! Daedam doesn't have a chance to widen the distance!"

"Good! The momentum is great! LD has to keep up just like this! Skullkim right now is exactly like the Grim Reaper! They say you can't avoid taxes and death, don't they!"

Genome, excited, raised his voice. In fact, skullkim, clad in his skeleton costume, was relentlessly chasing after his opponent.

"And Skullkim is actually close with Ha Soyeon. Every time Ha Soyeon played in the tournaments hosted by Tri, skullkim was there! That means he's got plenty of experience against Langlang! Even now, look at this! His dodging timing is just perfect!"

It wasn't just the viewers who were hyped from the women's division win. Genome started spilling out his words rapidly, his voice reaching new heights.

"No, that kind of experience may actually become poison for Skullkim."

But things didn't continue to flow in his favor. Willitwork? immediately countered the commentary.

"The time when Skullkim showed his skills was last season, wasn't it? In other words, there's a gap. If you look now, he's not successfully dodging every move, right? His reactions to some of Langlang's specific skills are slow! And that's because of the balance patch!"

"Oh? Was there a big patch!?"

Jung Soyoon, surprised, asked, and Willitwork? cleared his throat and shook his head.

"Hrmm, if Shoulder were commentating, he'd say it was huge, but I'm not Shoulder, and neither are the viewers. Some skill motion frames got changed by the balance patch."

Metal Punch goes through patches every season. But those patches didn't usually mean dramatic changes like new or removed skills.

"To regular players, these are minor differences, you know? But at the Omega level, it really stands out. Besides, with LD, the timing for dodging is extremely tight, so they can't help but be sensitive to frame changes!"

The chat started buzzing at the explanation.

― Oh? So it did change?

-lolol I checked the patch notes and it really did

― Why did this happen?

― I had absolutely no idea until the explanation lmao

― Viewers don't have frame eyes, I'm telling you

― Still, skullkim practiced, so isn't he fine?

― Looking at it now, he still hasn't fully adapted...

-5 days really was too short omg

As the commentators noted, the first match was fiercely contested.

Both players won a round, so it went up to round 3. And now, the decisive moment of the last round was approaching.

"Ah, we're at a brief lull now! Both players have to be cautious! They've figured each other out during the last two rounds! One slip here and it's over! No one can just act easily!"

Jung Soyoon filled the audio, ramping up the tension, and the commentary team agreed right along.

"It may look like they have stamina to spare, but both are highly skilled! Just one air combo and it's over in seconds!"

"That's right. Every single hit counts! Though it looks like they're standing still, a fierce battle of wits must be raging inside their heads!

As the clock ticked away, the showdown lasted for about three seconds. And it was Skullkim who made the first move.

"Skullkim takes the initiative!"

"Good! He's seized the momentum! Pressures the opponent and is baiting an attack!"

Daedam counterattacked swiftly as Skullkim closed in. Skullkim, as if he had been waiting, aimed for a dodge.

But the situation reversed in an instant.

"What!? What is this!?"

"Daedam!? What's going on?!"

"Wow! He had this hidden up his sleeve!"

Daedam cut off his counterattack and immediately performed a side step. Skullkim twisted his body right after finishing his dodge, but Daedam was already circling back in front of him.

"That's Ha Soyeon's Ha Girl Step!"

"Daedam had been practicing this! The surprise attack succeeds!"

Both collided and entered a stun state. But Daedam recovered faster.

With a follow-up skill, skullkim was launched into the air.

"Ah! Amazing! The original Ha Girl Step was discovered accidentally, right? But now it's intentional! Daedam pre-inputted the skills to reduce the delay!"

Willitwork? gushed happily. As Daedam's aerial combo continued, skullkim's stamina quickly dropped.

"Ah! That's it for Skullkim! Who could have expected Ha Girl Step here!? Daedam's secret weapon landed perfectly!"

Jung Soyoon wrapped it up. As she finished, the KO message appeared on the screen.

"KO! Thus, serengeti seizes the first match! Serengeti team takes the lead!"

There were groans of regret from the Tri supporters and, on the Serengeti side, cheers broke out after a long time.

"Ah, it couldn't be helped."

Genome grabbed the mic to lift the mood.

"Our Skullkim is a real tough guy, you know? There's no way he could've expected the Ha Boy Step here! This really came down to a difference in 'essence'!"

The result was set.

But Genome still had his trademark wit.

"But it's fine! Who's up next!? The paragon of chivalry, Eclipse! He'll surely show what he's made of and take righteous revenge!"

The crowd burst out laughing and the chat, too, buzzed.

-lol why are you making bone fracture jokes

― Not going to steal this one? Bone fracture kick!

― Black Company trait) seniors steal intern's achievements

-??? : I'm submitting the report under my name, okay?

― Black Company style commentary omg

― Chu dude, hey! Give the commentary mic back to Genome!

* * *

After match one ended, the rest period began.

Returning to the Tri team waiting room, skullkim bowed his head.

"I'm sorry...!"

His apologetic voice revealed his regret and guilt.

"No, there's no need to be."

Lee Gyeongbok offered words of comfort, and Skullkim let out a deep sigh.

"Ha, no. I just got impatient in that last round... As Purple said, I should've just stuck to dodge-focused play..."

Just like with the women's team, Lee Gyeongbok also gave Skullkim advice.

"If I'd stayed calm until the end, daedam wouldn't have had a chance to use Ha Girl Step..."

"It's really fine. But you took it to game 3, after all?"

Lee Gyeongbok gave a gentle pat on Skullkim's shoulder and smiled.

"You did your part, and at least we're not leaving empty-handed."

"... Empty-handed?"

For a moment, skullkim blinked in confusion, but then he understood the underlying meaning.

'He's already thinking from a victory mindset.'

Just winning a single round meant the team would share the prize if they won overall.

Lee Gyeongbok clearly didn't think losing this match reduced their chances.

"Realizing your shortcomings becomes the foundation for growth. Don't worry too much. I'll make up for any mistakes, so leave it to me."

Thanks to Eclipse's calm encouragement, skullkim was able to shake off his guilt.

"Hah, okay. I'll cheer as hard as I can then!"

He was nodding when he suddenly realized something and looked up.

"Oh! If you're using the Ban-Pick card now, I can explain about Daedam's sub-character!"

"No, that's alright."

Lee Gyeongbok waved him off with a smile.

"I'm not going to use the Ban-Pick card."

"Ah... yeah, that makes sense. It'd be better to use it in the match against KimKimKim than against a tired Daedam."

"No, not for that reason either."

To Skullkim's follow-up guess, Lee Gyeongbok gave an awkward laugh.

"I'm going to use the Ban-Pick card against Shoulder."

"Shoulder?"

"Yeah, you see, what happened is..."

Lee Gyeongbok explained his choice and his reasons.

"Excuse me? You're going to use it that way!?"

"I once again feel truly amazed at your composure."

Hearing it for the first time, skullkim was shocked, and Eclipse, who'd already heard it before, expressed his admiration.

"No need for that much respect. It's just for fun."

"Wow... But the audience and viewers will definitely enjoy it."

"For Purple's plan, too, I'll make sure to secure the win."

Before they knew it, break time was ending. Eclipse, with renewed determination, got ready for the next round.

* * *

Time for the Men's Division, match 2.

Jung Soyoon tilted her head and spoke.

"Ok, character selection is done. But even with Eclipse up next, the Ban-Pick card wasn't used?"

"That's an easy answer."

"Oh, is it?"

Genome answered first.

"Think about what Desibel did! It's only natural for Eclipse to be the middle card! So there's simply no need to use the Ban-Pick now! How intense was match 1? Daedam must be exhausted right now!"

"Oh, right! So it makes more sense to use the Ban-Pick card in the match between the middle cards."

"I think differently."

While Jung Soyoon agreed, willitwork? offered a contrary opinion.

"Maybe they anticipate that Eclipse will have a hard time winning. If Eclipse loses here, Purple will be left in a 3:1 situation, right? Considering stamina management, he might choose to use it for himself."

Viewers expressed their worries in chat.

― Eclipse's physical skill is good, but experience matters

― Seriously lol Omega-level is no joke

― Stop with the mouth Metal and cheer them properly lol

― Arrest the Three Cleaners immediately!

― Daedam did great in match 1!

― Whatever, godple will handle everything!

As the chat got rowdier, Jung Soyoon pressed on with the progress.

"Alright, we're ready! In the women's division, Decibel was the dark horse and put on a brilliant performance! What about the dark horse of the men's division? We'll see right now with Eclipse!"

With that, both players appeared on stage. Eclipse took a deep steadying breath and fixed his eyes on the opponent.

'What I've been lacking...'

Admitting one's shortcomings leads to growth. What Eclipse had said to Skullkim was equally applicable to himself.

He recalled what he'd learned while preparing for the tournament.

'I was obsessed with the sword alone.'

His initial reason for choosing Tsujimoto was simple: the character wielded a sword.

So, among Tsujimoto's skills, he had mainly practiced the sword-related ones.

'But Metal Punch isn't that kind of game.'

That was a mistake. Sword skills dominated against beginners, but against top players, he hit a wall.

After all, metal Punch was fundamentally a "fighting" game.

'Tsujimoto doesn't fight only with a sword.'

Eclipse reflected on his errors for the sake of victory. Tsujimoto's arsenal contained more "fencing" skills—using fists and legs—than swordplay.

He should have leveraged all those techniques to dominate the psychological and tactical battle; instead, he had limited himself.

'What I need to hone is the character itself, not just swordsmanship.'

So, as he prepared for the tournament, he researched not sword techniques, but the character. The lesson he learned was clear.

'To Tsujimoto, the sword is merely a tool.'

Just then, a familiar sound brought Eclipse back to himself.

〈FIGHT!〉

With the declaration ringing in his ear, he exhaled and drew his sword.

"What? What's going on!? Eclipse—did he make a mistake?"

"He's holding the sword in his LEFT hand? But I thought Eclipse was right-handed?!"

Jung Soyoon and Willitwork? exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh! Did Sir Eclipse change his dominant hand just for the tournament!? If he's a master swordsman, it's possible! A true expert isn't picky about tools!"

"If you do this, the skills become reversed left to right! Daedam must be totally thrown off!"

Genome didn't know the fine details, but quickly put together the implications. As Jung Soyoon commented hopefully, the two fighters began to move.

At the ensuing clash, the commentators found their voices rising again.

"Ah!? Eclipse's style is totally different!"

"That's right! I remember he used to rely on his unblockable slash to zone the opponent and dealt damage with sword skills, but now this is a slugfest!"

"Wow, it's fair to say he didn't just sharpen his blade! He's become adept at using fencing skills! His recent hard training was focused here, not on swordsmanship!"

Genome, excited by Eclipse's transformation, rattled on.

"But that doesn't mean he can't use the sword, either! He's breaking guards with a slash right in the middle of a combo! He's handling the sword as if he's a natural lefty!"

"Oh, daedam! But he's not going down so easily. Though he was surprised at first, now he's caught up to the pace! Daedam is dodging the sword strikes and finding chances to counter!"

Willitwork? countered with commentary bordering on cheerleading.

"Ah! Blocked! He used Tsujimoto's block perfectly—with his left hand!"

Meanwhile, Jung Soyoon described the neutral situation. Langlang, after clashing with the blade, entered a stun state.

Eclipse wasn't one to let that opening slip.

"Ooooh! Eclipse's Wheel Tremor Kick is unleashed! With both feet, he launches Daedam skyward!"

Tsujimoto, tucked into a forward roll, struck the ground with his katana and used the rebound to uppercut Daedam.

"Ah! Now Daedam's completely helpless! Is Eclipse also skilled at aerial combos?!"

"He absolutely is! Of course! Our Eclipse isn't someone who trains carelessly!"

As Daedam's stamina plummeted from the ongoing air combo, Genome jumped up and shouted.

"Such agile movement and fencing skills! This is incredible! The person on stage isn't the 'Knight' Eclipse everyone knows!"

"That's right! He's become Robin Hood Tsujimoto himself!"

At Jung Soyoon's comment, Genome shook his head with a smile.

"Just Tsujimoto? No way! That's not even close! The original Robin Hood Tsujimoto couldn't wield a sword like this!"

A flash of insight struck Genome.

He'd thought of the perfect term for the situation.

"What you're seeing now is an upgraded version: the swordplay of 'Knight' Eclipse fused with the fencing of 'Robin Hood' Tsujimoto!"

He raised his voice with all his might.

"The fusion of Sir and Robin Hood—Miracle Eclipse!"

The viewers in the chat couldn't help but agree.

― WA! Miracle!

-lololol Trchoip

― Red Squad beating Omega, that's a miracle, right?

― Eclipse can do itttt!

― Iracul! Iracul! Iracul!

― Trchoip's quick wit is amazing

― The phrase just rolls off the tongue!

Genome really knew how to make commentary exciting.
