Greatest Streamer System

Opening the game system menu, he put on an accessory, a black mask, to hide his face. It should be enough to avoid their sight, considering he had already hidden his name.

Then, he prepared his livestream. The tournament's rules hadn't forbidden anyone to stream, but there was a special rule where they had to put a 5-minute delay 10 minutes before the tournament to avoid stream snipers who purposely tried to join the streamer's game and mess with them.

'That one is a good rule. I don't want to get trolls in my game too.'

[Midnight Heist's Tier 2 Tournament! Day 1 Qualifier. #Breeze #Tournament #MidnightHeist #Running]

When everything was set, he immediately started the stream, and it showed the loading screen. His viewers started to gather.

[Viewers: 11,712]

In just a few seconds, more than 11K people had gathered. They were on time as usual, even though it was still work hours. From the chat, it seemed like there were many new viewers who came solely to watch the tournament from his PoV.

— I am new here!

— Tier 2 tournament! I am looking forward to watching it

— Loading screen, is the tournament not starting yet?

— To new viewers, welcome! Please enjoy your stay!

— Breeze! Breeze! Breeze!

— Win this, Breeze! I know you're excited to get the money reward!

Looking at the time, Max still had 20 minutes left before he could start his first game. He thought of greeting his

There was a chance the other streamers would find him, so he decided not to change the screen and only lowered the music volume to allow his voice to be heard.

"Hello, guys. First of all, sorry. I have a reason not to show my face now and only use my voice. There are too many people in Midnight Heist's Lobby now, and I am hiding from them. Once I put the 5-minute delay, I will change the screen back to normal. Please be patient."

— Hello! Many people? Are you hunted by any chance?

— Chased even before the game, eh? Classic Breeze

— [emoji:shocked!] You got chased? Shall we protect you from those people?

— [emoji: shocked!] You will protect Breeze?! I don't believe it! I bet you will jump on him!

— Hehe, just accept your fate. They aren't that bad, I think

— Naahhh, I don't think you should trust anyone in the chat, especially those who want to breed Hutch or be bred by Caesar.

"For some reason, I agree with the last guy in the chat. I would rather hide myself from both my chaser and you guys. It's scary." Max commented with a trembling voice. "Anyway, I will put a 5-minute delay now. Enjoy the loading screen showing off my handsome figure while waiting."

With that, Max went into a setting and increased the music volume again before putting the 5-minute delay. He could finally change the screen after that, as the viewers would only see the loading screen for 5 minutes straight.

However, that didn't mean he could stay in one place. He began to walk. Staying in one place would allow the other streamers to find him through his livestream.

After the 5 minutes had passed, the viewers were able to see his figure. He didn't say anything, and the chat only followed what he had done 5 minutes before. This would be a silent stream, he thought. There was no direct chat with his viewers, making him a little bit lonely.

And then, at 10 AM, the tournament started.

[Dear midnight dwellers! The time has come. The tournament section has been opened now!]

The notification from the system rang in the Lobby. Max raised his head before finding a secluded alley to open the game menu.

"It's time, guys. Look forward to my amazing performance!" He confidently declared it and pressed the 'Start' in the tournament section.

Dum dum!

A drum beat could be heard, and fiery words appeared in front of his eyes.

[Match found!]

[Map: Urban – Midnight Club.]

[Your role is as… a Thief!]

[Target: Diamond Wine!]

It was fast. Only a second was needed to find a match when it usually took around 30 seconds. This showed how many players participated in the tournament. To be in the top 50 among those players wasn't easy.

Still…

"I am so excited."

The word nervous had long gone from this shameless streamer's dictionary.

Max's body was covered in blue light and he was teleported to the starting point outside the club. He looked around and found his four teammates appeared beside him. They also tried to know who they teamed up with.

Two of them wore red suits and stocking masks, while one wore a rainbow outfit and a clown mask. The last one was wearing an ape costume with a monkey mask. All of them had Slide Shoes, which allowed them to slide anywhere at an increased speed for 3 seconds.

Adding Max, who wore default costumes, it was a slightly balanced team. It would be better to have 2 players with a clown mask to secure the escape route. However, this team's composition was already better than he had hoped.

"Good luck, and have fun." Max greeted the others first, breaking the silence. "May I request something selfish? I would be grateful if I am allowed to be the one to steal the target. I swear I will succeed at doing it as long as I have two supports."

The tournament was point based, calculated by how high MMR players gained in the game.

If one became an NovelFireP 5 times in a row, they had a higher chance of advancing to the next qualifier. At least, that was what people thought.

The reality was that being MVP and gaining high MMR weren't unrelated. If that was all he needed, Max would be Tier 4 immediately instead of Tier 5. From that fact alone, it was clear that being MVP didn't necessarily mean having the highest MMR in the match.

Max's idea was simple, just play his best according to his role. That was the best way to get a high MMR.

And looking at his and his teammates' equipment, it was clear that he was the perfect player to steal the target. However…

"No, I don't think so. My stocking mask and Slide Shoes are the best combination to steal."

"Me too. Let me steal the target."

"Don't underestimate the monkey mask. In this Midnight Club map, the ability to climb up and down will prove to be necessary. I can escape through the rooftop with my mask's ability to climb like a monkey."

"There are many NPCs in this Midnight Club map. I can escape easily using my clown mask."

…The others had different opinions. They thought that successfully stealing the item would make them the MVP.

While that way of thinking wasn't wrong, it would only give the police players some advantage. Teamwork was needed in this game.

Max sighed in defeat. He was faced with two facts. The first was…

'This game might be harder than I initially thought.'

Another fact was something that he didn't take into account.

'Playing as a police officer might give me a higher MMR than being a thief because it needs more individual skill than a thief, which needs good teamwork. What an unbalanced tournament.'

From this moment on, everything was left to the Goddess of RNG. May he be police in the next game to avoid this shitty discussion with his teammates.
