Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 3 Episode 152
51. Indoctrination (2)
When the news first spread that Joseon was given a map selection.
There was a lot of discussion about this in various communities.
[Are you going to Joseon one more time?]
[No, you’re going to receive this from Joseon?]
[Wow, it really seems like luck is on your side]
In the domestic community, hopeful stories were the mainstay.
Just making it to the finals was a series of incredible miracles.
Since you get to choose the map here, does it feel like it’s some kind of fateful trend?
Many people are starting to look at at least the quarterfinals.
[Is it possible to become a legend in the quarter-finals?]
[Summon Yi Sun-shin in the sea map in the quarter-finals haha]
[Gazuaaaa, a monster!]
This seemed to be a phenomenon that occurred as people who did not know much about Civil M but recently entered the competition became the majority of the community. .
This is a phenomenon where map selection is considered a very decisive advantage.
This could be clearly seen by looking at overseas reactions.
[I heard Joseon was given a map choice. Do the Vikings have a chance of winning?]
All the comments on articles like this were like this.
-Do you think the map selection is given as a fashion for no reason? meaningless.
– Literally fashion. There is no more meaning than that.
-It is a plausible advantage, but considering the balanced quality of the maps used in the finals, it is not a big advantage.
-If the Vikings had had the choice of map, they would have won 2-0. Joseon shouldn’t have it…
-The map itself changes in detail every time,
so it doesn’t have that much meaning. Selecting a map is just an event for fun. The mainstream opinion is that it doesn’t have much effect on games.
This was a very different atmosphere from the Korean community.
Of course, there were people who raised hopeful voices here as well.
-If you pick a map that blocks you early, isn’t your chance of winning high?
No matter how good the balance is, there are certain map tendencies.
Choosing a map for the second half will inevitably put the Vikings at a disadvantage.
So the question is whether it is useful or not.
└If you look at the Viking win rate in a map that is blocked in the early stages, it is actually 64%.
└Amazing.
Even though there are only a few games, the Vikings boast a whopping 64% win rate.
└The Danish Vikings completely overcame the early blockage of the map. Instead, they would have completely controlled the food supply and strangled them to death.
When trying to attack what was thought to be the weak point of civilization.
Denmark’s response was brutally perfect.
In fact, a strange phenomenon has emerged where the winning rate is higher.
“Memorize it. “We know in advance what the problem will be, right?”
This is why Cookie came up with the idea of memorizing and shooting.
“This is the best way to utilize the map options we have.”
In Cookie’s opinion, the biggest advantage of map selection was not being able to choose an advantageous map.
Speaking of advantageous maps, all of the maps selected for the game are well-balanced, so there is nothing that gives a particular civilization an unusual advantage.
In other words, the strategic advantage gained from the terrain is not that great.
Everything takes place within the enemy’s expected range.
So Cookie interpreted the benefits of map selection differently.
He noted that the map can be known ‘in advance’.
You can practice specific terrain in advance.
What is the best way to maximize this?
A build order called Nalville? no.
It takes a very long time to properly make one blade.
So where should I put the variable?
After all, it is a battle.
Battle utilizing terrain.
The goal is to find terrain that does not change and prepare the optimal way to fight on that terrain.
“Each person searches for the optimal curve angle, such as a 30-degree curve, a 45-degree curve, or a 60-degree curve. “You optimize it for your position, memorize it, and then shoot.”
Cookie looked at the date and continued.
“The given period is two days.”
Two days.
This is the time they can know the map first.
It was a room of time and space allowed only to Joseon.
“Let’s make sure we hit the target behind the tree or anywhere within two days.”
From then on, Joseon archers simply ran to a designated spot and repeatedly practiced shooting their arrows.
“No.2! Where did you go!?”
“come!”
Paang!
phut!
At first, the arrow only spun around and hit a tree or even hit a colleague.
In particular, the second shooter made a lot of mistakes.
“Damn it…”
The second shooter was Panga.
Paang!
The arrow he shot turns erratically and lands in Lotte’s forehead.
“Ahh!”
Fang’er lowered his head and lamented.
“Haa… Because I’m old. “This is a new way to shoot…”
Panga has always been the leader of the archers.
He was not able to adapt to the new tactics at all.
This also means that the curve shot technique is difficult to use.
I had to master that in just two days.
At least I can shoot it perfectly from this spot.
“It’s coming!”
Also, players acting as enemies started running.
Kiriririk.
Panga tilts his head, pulls the bowstring, and moves the arrow around.
“Mr. Ha….”
* * *
The day of the game has come.
Joseon’s archers began to run like crazy towards the position in front of the valley.
The broadcast staff could not understand this situation.
“What is it!?”
“Why… why!? This isn’t football! “Isn’t that what happens if you go into enemy territory!?”
No matter how many times Kinggyul’s head, as well as Caster’s, tried to think of possible numbers, no clear number could come to mind in this situation.
“Oh, I guess! Is there something at the destination over there!?”
Caster asked this, but Kinggyul was unable to answer.
Well, there’s nothing unusual about it other than the fact that there are at best a lot of living animals.
Strategically, there was no reason for the archers to run blindly like this.
“well…? You don’t know this!? “First of all, I know for sure that Joseon soldiers are now attacking the center of the Viking lair!”
“Ahhh! What kind of picture is this! “How many people will be left behind on the way now?!”
“When the Vikings encounter an enemy, there is a charging faction!? Even if there are mountain people within a certain distance! “It’s hard to escape!?”
On the way in, several archers were sacrificed.
-What the hell-
?? Did you take a picture of Attack Land and forget it?
-ㄷㄷㄷ
“Joseon is now! People are precious!? Because the Vikings will control the food! Until agriculture stabilizes, it will be difficult to revive soldiers even if they die?!”
“Even if you look at the members of this unit now, they are the absolute best aces!?”
“arrive! “We have finally arrived at our destination!”
The moment when all Joseon soldiers arrived at their destination. The broadcasting crew could not help but open their mouths in surprise.
Peeing!
ping!
Suddenly, numerous commands started to appear.
-Wow
-what is it??
– Huh
– ㄷㄷ
As soon as each player’s position was designated, a circle began to be drawn around them as if to indicate the distance.
Kinggyul’s voice gradually turned into an excited tone.
Because I realized that I definitely had something prepared.
Something is happening here.
“This! Didn’t the cookie take something and forgot? These words came out in chat! That’s definitely not true now!?”
Cheeeeeeeek…!
After the golden circles were drawn.
A Joseon soldier pulls his bowstring toward the Vikings approaching from all directions.
He is the soldier in number 2.
It was a panfish.
‘It starts with me.’
The Viking was the first to enter the circle drawn around him.
‘Think of it.’
Kiriririk!
As the faction of concentration turned on, the tip burned with white light.
“Almonds. Can’t you just shoot me from my spot? “I’ll just memorize it.”
“Is that… okay?”
“Just do it.”
“The bowstring is around here, behind that tree. Behind that rock is here. The pulling is about this….”
And─
‘Remember. ‘What you memorized while staying up all night for two days!’
Fang’er slowly let go of his protest.
Paaang!
His arrow flew with a sound. A curved path of white light.
There was a tree at the end.
The arrow seemed to have stuck in the tree, but it arrived at the Viking hiding behind it.
──Sigh!
‘You’re right?!’
A white-burning arrow pierced deep into the Viking’s temple, and he fell down so easily and in vain.
This became a signal.
“You got it right──”
It was reflected in the broadcasters’ wide eyes.
──Paaaang!
Arrows are fired simultaneously from all numbered locations.
A feast of white light as each person draws their own path as if they are alive.
-Wow
-ㄷㄷ
-ㄹㅈㄷ -Wow
–
???
One by one, they began to hit the Vikings’ sides.
Burbubbubbubbuk!!!
Whether you covered the front with a shield or hid behind a tree, the results were similar.
Arrows were continuously fired, each tracing its own path and knocking down enemies behind obstacles.
The arrows persistently penetrated only their left and right flanks.
“you’re right! You got it right!? “Everything!!”
The broadcast crew was so shocked that they jumped out of their seats.
It happened so quickly.
“Waaaaaaaa!!!”
A huge cheer went out from the scene.
The cheers that erupted from the Korean audience, which was only about a quarter full, shook the stadium.
“What is this!?”
The broadcasters are excited and spit out there.
The venue is full of excitement.
-Kya
-ㄷㄷ
-ㄹㅇㅋ -Kya
– Wow
, that’s crazy -keu
– Wow
–
The snakes who changed the route are so scary
– Snake hahaha
I couldn’t even handle the chat window, so I was stuttering.
It was worth it.
Because the enemies were deleted in just a split second.
“Shipbuilding!! That’s an arrow! Is it a snake!?
Arrows flying like snakes annihilated the Vikings.
-I’m tired ㄹㅇ
-Wow, it’s
so laggy haha -The snakes who changed the route are so scary
-The atmosphere on set is crazy;
“All the Vikings who attacked first are dead!?”
Inside the circle Cookie drew, there were no living Vikings nearby.
Their corpses are still rolling around on the ramp.
King Gyul spat and shouted.
“Are you talking about Joseon!? There is a lot of food in this valley!? “Including you all!!”
-Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
..
Including
you
.

If you go beyond a certain area, a curve shot with surprisingly high accuracy will fly and annihilate you.
There were only a few people who could inadvertently step in front of this strange phenomenon.
Still, it was strange to step away from here.
There are only about ten enemies.
The bow is positioned in extremely unfavorable terrain and the string is pulled quietly.
Moreover, over there is a valley that is a treasure trove of food.
If you give up this position, the loss of food will be too great.
“Shipbuilding! Archers are being dispatched to other places now!?”
Meanwhile, Joseon began moving to other hunting grounds where the Vikings turned their attention.
“This! “Joseon is also trying to stockpile food now!?”
“you’re right! The Vikings are in full view of the valley! Are you trying to secure food from other regions!? This—”
War is ultimately a battle for resources.
This was not much different in Civil M.
“—It’s advantageous!? Really Joseon! Are you going to make a big deal?!”
If you can avoid falling behind in securing resources, there is nothing you cannot win.
Even if it is a match between Joseon, ranked last in the power rankings, and Vikings, ranked 12th.
