The Line Started Moving

“For what?” “Playoffs. Nobody used to ask whether we’d make it. Now they’re asking who we’ll face.” Logan looked back at the screen and said nothing. He knew what that meant. The conversation had changed. People were no longer waiting for him to fail. They were starting to admit Harbor Reign was not a joke. They were winning for real. What mattered more was the opponent list. The league’s best macro team, its most aggressive early game team, and the cleanest double-carry team in North America were all waiting ahead. Each one looked more disciplined than the last. Each one felt like a harder wall. Logan queued again. He wasn’t climbing back into the past. He was moving upward.
