Lin Chen is a marginal substitute jungler for the top domestic e-sports club "Thunder". He has the ability to be the number one jungler in the Chinese server, but due to factional strife within the club, he was benched by the core players and co-coaches for a whole year.
The core AD in the team is the nephew of the boss, who is arrogant and domineering and tries to take credit and shirk the blame; the head coach is the uncle of the core AD, who is nepotistic and suppresses dissidents; teammates either follow the trend or protect themselves wisely. The entire club is like a hierarchical harem. No matter how strong it is, if you don't know how to "side up", you will only become an outcast.
Without a golden finger or system blessing, Lin Chen relied on forbearance and calculation far beyond ordinary people. He secretly observes factional conflicts, uses poaching from rival clubs to build momentum, instigates a crisis of trust between core players and coaches, draws in marginalized supports and top laners, and gradually disintegrates hostile forces.
The forbearance on the bench, the secret quarrel in the training room, the public opinion game after the press conference, the life and death comeback on the field... Lin Chen used the wisdom of "gongdou" to find a path to the top in e-sports, a field that relies on strength.
When he finally got a seat in the starting lineup, led his teammates to sweep the league, and headed for the World Championships, he discovered that the "court battle" in the e-sports circle never stops at one club - with the conspiracy of other teams in the league, the intervention of capital, and the pressure of sponsors, the more cruel game has just begun.
"The arena is my battlefield, and the club is my harem. Want to block my way to win the championship? Then don't blame me for being ruthless."
