Our Support Is a Girl

Support players are in desperately short supply on the League of Legends stage. At the start of the new season, the manager announced at KDT's regular press conference that Winner, a solo-queue star who had ranked first on the Korean server in the S10 season, had passed all three interview rounds and officially joined the starting lineup for the new season. Back in the team's practice room, their mid laner, Jiong Shen, shook his head vigorously. “Heavens, she's a gorgeous girl! I can't keep my cool.” Captain Zhao Liuhui realized this was a serious problem. “Fine, you can look at her a little longer. You'll get used to it.” Jungler Cut brought up another concern. “What if she wants to date someone?” Zhao Liuhui pinched the bridge of his nose and said glumly, “Then let her date.” The top laner had another question. “But what if...?” Zhao Liuhui cut him off. “Enough. Aren't you worried a talent like her might get recruited by the team next door to play support?” The players all calmed down and shook their heads in unison. “No way!” Zhao Liuhui went on, “Do you want another formidable opponent in the bottom lane?” “No way!” And so, everyone at KDT made a collective decision: overcome every obstacle and give their new teammate a warm welcome!
