"Your cousin is a professional player?" the captain asked with obvious assumptions about Noah's background and training.
"What games does he compete in?" added another teammate. "His mechanical skill shows he has years of high-level experience."
Ethan shook his head slowly, still struggling to reconcile the Noah he knew with the gaming phenomenon they'd just encountered.
"No, he's not a professional player in any game," Ethan said with growing amazement. "He just started playing this game a few days ago. Before that, he played other games casually, nothing competitive."
The team chat fell completely silent as Ethan's words sank into their brain. A casual player with minimal experience had just outplayed an entire professional team using knowledge and mechanical skill that should have required years to develop.
"A few days?" the captain repeated with obvious disbelief. "That's impossible. Nobody develops game sense like that in a few days."
