Season 4: Chapter 72. LIL Squad Assemble (3)
The debate at Blue Boat continued. Almond, at the center of it all, curiously remained silent. The rest continued their heated arguments while defending themselves.
“The best team, obviously!”
“No, atmosphere is more important!”
“Ughh, where do I even fit in!?”
To summarize, the Tea faction insisted that the best possible team had to be assembled for the sake of victory. According to them, Balloon Stars scooping up Almond purely because of their relationship was illegal. (They literally used that word.)
“The rest are just filler if all the aces end up on one team, right?”
Balloon Stars rebutted that they needed to prevent that kind of one-sided stacking for the sake of entertainment. After all, this wasn’t some national league. It was just a fun platform battle. If all the skilled ex-Treevy players joined the same teams, what fun would the remaining matches be?
“You need the hard-carry, the comic relief, the brain, and the visuals all mixed together for it to be fun,” Tako argued.
Black Tea laughed and shot back, “What is this, a girl group? Are we assigning visual, main vocal, and dance positions now?”
“Oh ho~ Girl groups are nice though~” StrawberryShooter cut in, but Black Tea ignored him and pointed at Almond.
“And that guy has the visuals, vocals, dance, AND comic relief all in one! Everything except the brains!”
Bubblegum couldn’t let that one slide. “I still have more clown power...” he timidly rebutted.
