Chapter 371: League of Spirits (6)
It was the first time Flame and Hae Won-Ryang were having a meal with Ma Yu-Seong, Eisel, and Baek Yu-Seol, who were already members of the gourmet club.
"Is this your first time having pork cutlets?"
"Cutting fried food with a knife instead of steak feels a bit strange."
"How does it feel to slice cutlets instead of steak?"
"Well, it's edible enough."
The unlikely group of five gathered at one table gave Flame a strange feeling. These were the characters she had cherished the most while reading the original story, and now they had become her closest companions. It felt surreal, but also made her happy.
"Sigh. I can't believe we quit practice after just one match."
Not entirely pleased with the situation, Flame stirred her spicy cold noodles and sighed deeply.
"Actually, it might be for the best. At least we got a sense of how the game flows after that first match, right?"
There's a limit to how much one can gain from running endless practice matches. LOS games were often based on 'builds,' and next comes what's called a 'fixed framework.'
The fixed framework refers to very basic strategies that haven't changed over time. For instance, sneaking into the enemy's alley to steal monsters (invade strategy), roaming around alleys and perfectly timing a backup from teammates (gank), or knowing where to hide to ambush the enemy effectively.
