Quick Transmigration: I Actually Became a System Bug

The atmosphere at the Red Sea Club has been very low these past few days, especially among the fifth floor of the starting first team. The newly added support player, Yang Cong, has red and swollen eyes with a large bruise below, making him look like he's been punched by a 200-pound strongman.

Ji Han and the others were not in good condition either. After several days of continuous training, they were not only mentally exhausted, but their fingers, wrists, shoulders, necks, lumbar spines and even tailbone were sore from sitting.

Coach Guo glanced at the five exhausted players on the field, then at the three reserves in the back row.

"Ji Han, why don't you switch to support for now?"

Ji Han!!! Coach, do you want to hear what you're saying? He's a newly crowned mage champion, he's only had the trophy for a few months, and now you're making him switch to support!

Perhaps it was the shocked expressions of the people present, or perhaps the coach knew his explanation was untenable, but he still forced himself to explain a few more words.

"None of our second team and youth training support players are any good right now. Yang Cong is currently considered the best among them, but so far, whether in matches or training, the results have not been ideal."

"You did manage to fill in for the team with a support role before, and the results were quite good. I even checked your game logs from when you played support during your streams, and your awareness and skills in support are top-notch. You just need to work on your synergy with the team a little more."

"Even the only adjustment issue isn't a problem for you, so..."

"Ji Han, I promise you, you will only play support in the remaining matches of this World Championship. After this, you will still be the best starting mage for our Red Sea team."

Shi Shaoyu looked at Ji Han, whose eyes were downcast, and walked over to him, grabbing his arm.

"Ahan, it's okay, don't feel pressured. Being a support wasn't your responsibility to begin with. You can refuse directly. If someone asked me to give up my marksman role and play support, I would beat that person to a pulp on the spot!"

Coach Guo... well, he really has to thank Ji Han for not having considered turning him into mincemeat yet.

Under Coach Guo's expectant gaze, Ji Han finally nodded. The main reason was that he was confident in playing the support role; otherwise, even if Coach Guo knelt in front of him, he would not have agreed.

Ji Han agreed, and Coach Guo immediately adjourned the meeting. He excitedly pulled the rest of the coaching staff aside to discuss the new battle plan. Ji Han watched as everyone left the meeting room, and only when he and Shi Shaoyu remained did he finally speak.

"Old Shi, can you let go of my arm now?"

Shi Shaoyu... Shi Shaoyu was unwilling in his heart, but on the surface he still politely let go of Ji Han. Of course, it would have been better if he hadn't deliberately rubbed his hand a couple of times when he let go.

With the competition imminent, Ji Han didn't want to dwell on this issue with Shi Shaoyu too much. If things went wrong and the two of them started arguing or giving each other the cold shoulder again, it would affect the pre-match atmosphere of the entire team.

The loser's bracket is relatively easier for the Red Sea team than the winner's bracket, especially after Ji Han switched to support, which greatly improved the team's overall strength. Coach Guo has been regretting that he didn't make this plan earlier, otherwise they might not have ended up in the loser's bracket.

The competition may change, but the champion and runner-up remain the same. The Red Sea team once again stood on the same final stage as their old rival, the Blue Star team. As for the international teams, they were all eliminated in the quarterfinals.

Mo Han looked at Ji Han standing next to Shi Shaoyu, her eyes filled with obvious disappointment.

"Ji Han, I hope that when we compete next time, you can return to the mage position."

Ji Han also answered with a smile.

"Don't underestimate me, Brother Mo! This position is my home turf. I'm really looking forward to Brother Mo's performance later!"

Although both of them were smiling and their voices were very gentle, the team members on both sides could still sense a thunderous aura in their voices.

Ji Han will play support, while the mid lane will still be filled by Wang Zhao, the previous substitute. Although both are newcomers who went from substitutes to starters, Wang Zhao's performance has been significantly better than Yang Cong's. At least he can follow commands promptly and accurately, and achieve the desired effect. Moreover, Wang Zhao has not made many individual mistakes in recent matches.

Although Zhang Yang couldn't play in the finals, he still managed to come to the venue to watch the game despite his illness. He sat next to Coach Guo, so he could discuss the upcoming tactics with Coach Guo while watching the game.

These old rivals have studied each other countless times, so the initial probing phase can be skipped. Once both sides have chosen their actors, the first match begins quickly.

As expected, the three opposing players gathered in the middle lane at the start of the match, mainly to target Wang Zhao and gain priority lane control. It would be best if they could start pushing from the middle lane.

However, Ji Han and Wang Zhao were not to be underestimated. Although there were three opponents, the game had just begun and neither side was dealing much damage. It would be difficult for the two of them to turn the tables and kill them, but clearing the minion wave and defending the buildings in the middle lane would not be a problem.

From the very start of the game, Ji Han stayed in the mid lane, as did the opposing support. However, because the opposing mid laner was Mo Han, the opposing support was more mobile than Ji Han. After all, he didn't have to worry that his own mage would die if he left for a short while.

Fortunately, Shi Shaoyu, Xiao Feng, and Ma Yunfei were all very capable. In particular, Shi Shaoyu, without any support, developed as a marksman just as well as the opponent, and often even had more gold. This left the opposing marksman questioning his life choices, wondering where Shi Shaoyu got all that gold from!

The first two matches were very close, but the Red Sea team managed to win them. However, the situation changed in the third match.

When the opposing team discovered that Ji Han, as the support, was protecting their team's only weakness—the mage—very well, they began to target Shi Shaoyu. No matter how good Shi Shaoyu was, as a squishy marksman, he was powerless against two big men and a damage dealer. Often, by the time Ji Han arrived, the bottom lane had already been destroyed.

In the next two games, the Blue Star team tied the score again.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ji Han and Coach Guo quickly adjusted their battle plan. Ji Han returned to the bottom lane to protect Shi Shaoyu, while the mid lane was "protected" by the mage and the jungler.

To put it simply, if Wang Zhao can farm the mid-lane minions, he should clear them himself. If he lacks vision or cannot clear them, then the jungler Xiao Feng should clear the minion wave.
