Back in the League

That was exactly where Mason did his best work. Round fourteen. Score 7:6. The opponent had full economy and tried to crack B with a fast hit. Mason held a high angle off site. He tagged the first entry with two bullets, then used Jett’s upward movement and dash to avoid the return fire. He did not overchase. He fell back into a line his team could actually support. The important part was not the kills. It was that he finally understood when to leave and let the system finish the job. After the round, the broadcast cut to the coaching staff on the other side. Three different veteran coaches were already writing things down. Northstar Forge was no longer being treated like a novelty. They were becoming a scoutable problem.
