Chapter 103: Matchday 1 [3]

Juggernaut, the unstoppable force of Birmingham.

The champion club that dethroned Scarlet Rose in season 7, known for their relentless, overwhelming pressure and brutal team fight dominance.

Juggernaut’s starting V comprised Titan, Juggernaut’s captain who played as a Warlord, a variant class of the Berserker main class that is a tank-class commander with area control and crowd-crushing abilities.

Apart from Titan, in team Juggernaut there was Frostfang, an Elementalist, an ice specialist; Thunderborn, also an Elementalist who focused on the lightning element; Ironclad, a Paladin, and then Shadowstriker, an Assassin.

And then on the other side were the reigning champions led by the recent most famous Avatar in England, Gabriel’s Dain Ironvalor.

Apart from Dain Ironvalor, Phoenix Rising’s starting V comprised of 2 well known Elementalists, Inferna and Frazier; then Abyss, a Warlock, and then Blaze, a Combat Mage.

The Birmingham Stadium was filled to the brim with tens of thousands of passionate Warstar fans, eager to spectate the 2 powerhouse teams in action.

And then the clash started.

The first individual battle was between Gabriel’s Dain Ironvalor and Titan.

As soon as the battle started, Gabriel activated his defensive buffs and with his reactive counters, he was able to withstand Titan’s tyrannical brute force.

Despite Titan’s relentless pressure, Gabriel’s precise timing and divine healing enabled him to wear down the Warlord’s stamina.

At the end, a crushing holy strike sent Titan to the ground.

[Winner: Dain Ironvalor]

[Phoenix Rising, 1 point]

The second individual battle was between Thunderborn and Inferna, a contest of Elementalists.

In a high-speed duel of elemental chaos, Thunderborn’s lightning strikes aim to overwhelm Inferna’s flames. However, Inferna manipulated the battlefield, creating fire barriers and explosions to break Thunderborn’s rhythm.

It was a close duel, but a well-timed Flame Surge from Inferna finished the duel in her favor.

Phoenix Rising got another point.

And then the third individual battle. It was between Shadowstriker and Abyss, Phoenix Rising’s Warlock.

Shadowstriker’s stealth and speed dominated early, striking from the shadows. However, Abyss’ mastery of curses and dark magic created traps and illusions that disrupted Shadowstriker’s movements.

It was an extremely technical battle.

A final curse drained Shadowstriker’s life force, sealing the victory.

Incredulously, against a champion team in Juggernaut, Phoenix Rising managed to do it, earning a clean sweep in the individual battles.

The internet went haywire with reactions even before the end of the game.

And then, in the 3 vs 3 battle rush, Ironclad, Frostfang, and Thunderborn went up against Dain Ironvalor, Blaze, and Inferna respectively.

It was an incredibly tight clash, each player pushing past his/her limits as they hit ridiculous APMs on the Arena.

The arena was filled with brilliant flashes of light as they fought.

But in the end, Phoenix won again.

The X Factor just seemed to be favoring them today.

And then came the team battle.

’We can’t afford to lose like this!’

The fear of humiliation pushed Juggernaut to the wall and in the team battle, this club came out with the energy of a man who had everything to lose.

Juggernaut unleashed their signature full-force assault, with Titan and Ironclad leading the charge while Thunderborn and Frostfang bombard from the rear. A formation that had worked so many times against overwhelming odds.

However, Phoenix Rising’s synergy, led by Gabriel’s divine protection and strategic adaptability neutralized the aggression.

It was chaos. Intense, brilliant chaos.

Abyss’ curses and Inferna’s flames crippled Juggernaut’s backline, while Blaze’s AOE bursts dismantled their formation.

After putting up a furious fight against the reigning champions, in the end, the nemesis, Dain Ironvalor delivered the final blow to Titan, sealing the victory.

This was the enemy’s home stadium but at the end of it all, the voices of the away fans managed to dwarf those of the home fans, ringing loudly.

"Ironvalor!" "Ironvalor!" "Ironvalor!"

They hailed their captain and hero.

[Final Score:]

(Juggernaut 0 – 10 Phoenix Rising)

Juggernaut was thrashed 0-10, the humiliation...

Phoenix Rising’s superior coordination and tactical brilliance led by Gabriel was what proved the difference maker, overwhelming Juggernaut’s devastating brute force approach.

And with this flawless victory, the reigning champions solidified their claim as the undisputed champions of Warstar.

Hidden among the home supporters in the stadium.

"Tsk". Benjamin picked his teeth with a toothpick.

"Arrogant bastard". He cursed.

"Just wait till we come back, just you wait, hehe, shine for now bald bard!" He laughed at his own joke, suddenly feeling a bit better about the situation.

Benjamin was even more motivated to work hard and level up.

He could not wait to return to the Pro Alliance with his friends.

Thinking about it, he grinned. ’Next season, we’ll show them hell’.

Around 8:00pm, the Midnight Revenants took on the Blazing Gryphons, resulting in a home victory for the Midnight Revenants.
