Madison Philips, a girl full of promise in front of parents and strangers who also just wanted to see the world burn - not really, but she did enjoy bringing people back to Earth to disappoint them.

She is capable of being both a softie and a baddie, it all really depended on her mood. 

Yet there is a moment when she starts avoiding love like the plague. So when she meets Chase Ellsworth - the popular guy of her year that all the girls swooned over-, she feels like she's hit a brick wall. His confidence was through the roof and she would soon enough find out why, but because of that energy coming from the boy with black hair and green eyes, she decides that her goal would be to crush his confidence.

Sounds easier said than done. Especially when you're trying not to fall in love.

Ben Simmons was pretty shocked I was able to make that but he quickly recovered telling me that he wasn't going to let me score on him again. 
This made me laugh because this guy was shorter than me and younger talking a lot of bull crap so as soon as he checked up the ball I did a quick step back and shot the ball giving me six points. 
Ben gritted his teeth as he checked up the ball once again, this time I crossed him over by faking left and going right as he chased down with me I dunked it on him as he fell on his back. 
Everybody was shocked by this because it was a heavy dunk even Sandra and Rihanna was also shocked as they had never seen me dunk on somebody like that before and thought that I was even angry at him. 
I shook my head as I stepped over him like Iverson did with Ty Lue and went back to the center to check up the ball. Ben Simmons was pretty pissed that he just got dunked on and quickly checked up the ball. 
I pretended like I was going to drive in again as he stepped back in order to defend but that was the first mistake that he made as I loaded up the guns and took the shot giving me an 11-point lead. One more point and I'll move on to the next round. 
Ben Simmons surprisingly didn't give up after this I could still see the fire in his eyes as he still looked like he wanted to compete with me. I said in my head good this guy has excellent drive, unlike somebody I knew Brione cough cough.
Somewhere in the states Brione was going for a layup in practice but sneezed causing him to miss it as his coach told him to do another lap around the court. Brione cursed in his heart as he had no idea why he would sneeze in the middle of lay up, not knowing Eazy had caused him to misfortune. 
Back to the game, I checked up the ball as Ben was playing defense like there was no tomorrow. Ben really wanted to win this tournament in order to receive the lucky ancient item but I hate losing so I wasn't just going to lose just for his satisfaction. 
I respected him by going hard as I crossed him up a few times and tried to go up for a layup but he was right there with me so I pretended like I was going to lay it up as he jumped up with me but my foot was still on the ground as I brought my foot back down and did a hook shot, winning the game. 
Ben got on his knees as he started tearing up. I told him not to cry and that I'm just a monster no one can beat me. Ben looked at me funny as he said "he likes my confidence"  and I said, "that's what basketball is all about confidence, you got to have confidence in yourself, you have to have the confidence to take that last shot at the buzzard, you have to have consist confidence in everything you do, and put your heart into it".
Ben wiped his tears and got up, held his head up high and shook my hand saying" thank you for the game and words, i will continue to practice hard". I told him that I'll wait for him in the NBA so he should practice hard. 
I went back to my seat to hang out with the ladies once again as they were asking questions about why I dunked it so hard on him. I explained to them that I just wanted to teach the kid a lesson because it seemed like he had never been dunked on before so his head was a little bit too big.  
It was good to have confidence but there's a difference between confidence and cockiness if you cannot back up your game. I had a reason to be cocky because I can't miss!!! so I had every right to say what I said about being the best and never lose.  
The games continued as I noticed one guy and I felt like I was going to be playing him in the final round. He was huge about 6'9 and was dunking on everybody and everything. He barely had to jump to get to the rim and whenever anybody took a shot he was able to block it. 
He was just skin and bones and kind of reminded me of Kevin Durant except he couldn't shoot like Kevin Durant but he had a mid-range jumper. He also reminded me of Momba but Momba was bigger than this guy, twice his size. 
This guy was just going through the competition even when they shot the ball he was able to grab it from the air, turn around, take one step and dunk it. He took one step and was already at the post from the free-throw line, that's how long his legs were. 
I couldn't wait to get into the NBA where I'll be facing off against guys like Kevin Durant and thought that I would have to up my game with a few new tricks every time I go into a game to avoid being blocked. 
The matches continued, I'm not even going to talk about my next matches as there were all pretty much blowouts. The guys never had a chance. 
The finals had finally come and I was going against this huge guy 6'9, I had to look up to him when I came up to him and he had to also look down on me which made me feel uncomfortable and tiny. I felt like my pride as a man was being challenged with this guy looking at me like I'm some kind of child. 
He came up to me with his deep voice saying puny little boy hurry up and lose so that I may gain the strength of the ancient gods in order to dominate the basketball world. This guy was extremely intimidating and thought that he would make a good last boss in a movie or a video game. 
I responded by saying " hey Giant have you ever read the story of David and Goliath ''. He ground his teeth as I said: "well I'm about to slay you as David did to that giant". He didn't say anything again as he checked the ball. 
We didn't even have to shoot for the ball as he knew that I would make it and he knew that he would miss it as he had been missing shots from the three-point line the whole time and letting his opponents have the ball first.


Eazy at 50years old woke up one day in his ten year old body happy about getting another chance at life. He gets info that he has three abilities.
This is my first time writing so I'm going to wing things as it comes to my mind please bare with me. Please point out any Grammer errors.

February has always been a special month for me. Between my birthday, black history, amethyst and of course Valentine's day it's one of my fav months. And with the month of love right around the corner, I can finally unload all of the romance webtoons I've been stockpiling for just this special occasion. The romance genre has always been a wishy-washy subject for me. As someone who has never been able to find that young puppy love that lasts a good three months but somehow ends up feeling way longer and more expensive, I understand the appeal. But fortunately, I've seen enough writers to at least be happy to know that plenty of other writers have no idea what romance is either (*Cough*, Twilight,50 shades of grey, After and Chasing Red *Cough*) I feel like amid fanfic and ships that we've often mixed up love and lust, which is why I'm so happy that this webtoon manages to know the difference. Are you ready to get your game on? If so, then let's dive into this Let's Play by Mongie!


Summary


Enter Sam, a young woman who has loved gaming ever since she was little. She loved it so much that she worked countless hours to create an intricate indie puzzle game called Ruminate. And as soon as she did her idol, her god, her fav YouTuber THE Marshall Law reviewed her game and completely hated it. However, due to his toxic fanbase, the game was bombed to hell and back, thus leaving Sam heartbroken. And depending on how you see it, Sam wasn't going to be escaping the tragedy anytime soon because Marshall was now right next door in her apartment building.


Characters


Sam: Growing up in a very sheltered environment and having numerous health issues, Sam is an introvert and wimp to the bitter core. Her confidence is about as fragile as glass, which makes conflict incredibly hard for her and self-love even worse. However, what she lacks in confidence, she more than makes up for in her compassion and ingenuity. She is a highly capable worker and has been known to make bonds with people from all over. And with Marshall right next door for better or worse, she thinks that through his appearance, she will gain the confidence that she's always wanted.


Marshall Law: On the surface level, Marshall Law could be seen as another by the numbers game reviewer with a HYPERACTIVE VOICE. But throughout the series, we learn he hides a lot of sorrow behind that clown mask of his, and strength as well. Once he learns of Sam, he tries his best to fix the problem as best he can. In many ways, he is even more insecure than Sam, but through his relationship with his girlfriend Monica and his youtube channel, he battles against them.


The Good Stuff/ Overview


There is a lot to like in Let's Play, like a lot. The series has one of the best overall casts on the site, with each character being lovably unique and interesting, and giving a lot of different perspectives; you wouldn't think of normally. It, in many ways, is a story about moving on from loss and bouncing back and maneuvering through love while also facing the world head-on, which in many ways is a beautiful message. And yet despite all these severe themes, this series fully acknowledges the world that it lives in. I can't even count how many times the series has made a self-aware dig about classic romance and anime tropes. And if realistic portrayals of healthy relationships, love, abuse, depression, and self-aware meta-humor isn't your deal, then maybe you'll enjoy the countless video game references.


Sam and Marshall's daily life is constantly portrayed as a game (like a game of life?) from the 8-bit travel to their work or a range of emotive avatars to show how they feel inside. But what's probably even more prominent than all of that is the *ahem* "artstyle." While the art style for the environment isn't the best of the series, the fanservice is. The characters are drawn in a bold anime style that makes everybody sparkle. I'm not a prude or pervert or gay, but I find it so refreshing that a series has tasteful fanservice for both genders (*cough* Fairy Tail *cough*). Depending on the scenario, it can be flipping hilarious, sweet, hot, and, for the most part, subtle, which is what a lot of shows seem to forget. And in speaking with said fanservice, Let's play can show off various kinks and sexualities with the utmost respect, which I can also appreciate. Of course, they can only go so far, but I think it gets around it okay.


Epilogue


Overall Let's Play is a series that I don't see leaving anytime soon. It has over 16.8 million subscribers and has maintained a loyal fanbase in the short time it's been here with no sign of stopping. It's a great read and a perfect way to begin my Valentine spotlights. So all of my singles out there, grab yourself a box of chocolates, and let's see where the spotlight takes us next.

Just a simple person is trying to shine a little light on the beautiful world of webtoon. With a splash of sarcasm, narration, and spitfire along the way.  And who knows I might have other segments just for the hell of it.

Despite his despise towards Wang Tong, Porten tried to hide it from the others.
"Hehe, Brother Porten, Flash is a very talented student. He ought to be one of your most competent commanders, don't you think? "
"Brother Shiming, you have a soft spot for talents, which I understand. But look at him! There would be plenty of commanders like him, so no sense in putting all your eggs in one basket. I have heard that he needed a lot of money for the treatment of his sick mother. It's going to cost you a fortune, you know. You even allowed his game to disturb your critical close-door cultivation and troubled yourself to watch his game. But look what you got—a failure."
Li Shiming remained calm, "Brother Porten, it's not a distraction. I need to take a break too."
"Haha, I know what you are worried about, but fret not! I wager that even if Wang Tong were able to enter the final, he wouldn't be able to take home the title of Champion." Porten said with conviction.
Porten believed that he could alter anything he wanted to as long as he had enough power. It was part of the reason why he was so obsessed with power.
Li Shiming nodded, his face calm as usual. He believed that Flash would not disappoint him.
The second round began. The heat of the battle cranked up, but the two players became calmer, as they both understood that passion should be reserved for another time, and only being methodical and calm would lead them to their victory.
The two players started the game with the same opening tactic as last round; Wang Tong started to build up his defense lines while Flash steadily increased the rank of his force.
It took mettle and confidence for Flash to repeat the same tactic that had failed once.
Did he do it because he didn't know any other opening tactic? Or was it because he thought his opponent's last victory was merely a fluke?
The answer would only be revealed after the battle had concluded.
Flash was clam as he carried out his strategy, while Wang Tong's scout kept a tap on his every move.
The game seemed like a review of the last one till the mid-stage, when Flash had gathered a considerable force and was ready to strike a blow at Wang Tong's new base.
Everyone wagered that the pressure on Flash ought to be immense, since he had led the same invading army against the same defense force under the lingering despair of his last defeat.
Kal was one of the audience members who had become worried for Flash. He and Flash had prepared more than one opening strategy before the match, and he wondered what had made Flash hesitate in deploying the other strategies.
Bisu's face held a gloomy expression. He knew that should Flash fail this round, he would be pressed against by an even greater pressure.
Zhang Jin curled herself up into a ball under the blanket and watched the match with great interest. "Marvelous..." She murmured to herself as she admired Flash's incredible battle awareness.
Flash was a real genius in fleet battle, even though he never invented any new fighting styles as Karl did. His ability to discern the flow of the battle was what set him apart, and made him almost immune to any adverse effect of the opponent's strategies.
Despise crawled back onto Porten's face, but this time, he kept the complaining to himself. Nonetheless, he thought it was unwise for Flash to use the same tactic that had been proven a failure.
Meanwhile, a faint smile found the corner of Li Shiming's lips, as he had realized that he had discovered a real genius, since only a real genius would have the confidence to expose himself to so much risk.
The progression was the same as the last game: Flash led his army to Wang Tong's fresh-out-of-oven third base, threatening the existence of Wang Tong's economy.
However, Wang Tong was more prepared this time, as he had installed a few ambush units along the enemies' way, and also sent in his reinforcements ahead of time.
On the other hand, Flash had also beefed up the guard in his base, making sure that Wang Tong would not be able to drop another sneak attack on him.
Unable to find an opportunity to land a drop ship, Wang Tong decided to focus on the defense. Although Flash did not possess the unbelievable AMP like Wang Tong, he had superior control over the formation of his units to make up for his disadvantage.
Flash's strong suit, in addition to battle awareness, was in his flawless unit makeup and formation controls— skills that were unteachable at school.
Wang Tong's third base was in danger, and without landing a successful sneak attack at the enemy’s rear, Wang Tong felt hard-pressed to defend the waves of attacks.
Wang Tong's third base was gone in a few moments.
Although the beginning of the fight resembled that of the last one, the outcome was drastically different. Having his only economic node being destroyed, Wang Tong's hands were tied as he watched Flash quickly amass a large fleet and open the fourth base.
Flash didn't choose to wage a full-on war with Wang Tong right away, as he knew that the defense inside the remaining two bases was formidable. One mistake and he might quickly lose all the advantages he had built up to this point. Therefore, he decided to bide his time and wait just a bit longer.
Flash's expansion had inevitably put pressure on his opponent, tempting Wang Tong to come out of his turtle shell. Wang Tong held back his urge of rushing his remaining force out of the defensive line, since losing those remaining units meant he would have lost the match.
It was evident then that this match would not last until the late game.
Flash's forces patrolled around the resource nodes, making sure that Wang Tong would not have any chance of establishing another base, while the attack units kept on spilling out from all four of his headquarters.
Wang Tong finally conceded his defeat and typed in "gg."
The score evened at one to one.
Students at Capth boiled over, unable to contain their excitement. They had finally seen what they wanted to see, a perfect commander.
Flash's victory using the same strategy as the last game had undoubtedly eroded his opponent's confidence, as the message was clear, ‘You can turtle in all you want, but I could still whoop your ass until you submit.’
Flash had shown everyone the meaning of real confidence. Instead of losing faith in his ability after a devastating blow, he had remained adamant and eventually overcame his opponent like a real battle commander.
"What luck!" Porten pouted as a few words escaped her teeth.
"He had outshined his opponent in his ability to control the flow. He knew that he had lost the game in the middle stage of the first round, yet he didn't give up until late game. He did this to feed his opponent a taste of heroic victory, a lure if you will. He knew that the revenge would be ten times sweeter when it was done when the opponent was the least suspecting." Li Shiming said as he nodded in approval of Flash's ability.
Flash had countered Wang Tong's turtle strategy, and that meant Wang Tong would not be able to use the cheap strategy on Flash in the coming fights.
Flash had also proven that the acute sense of enemies' intention and battle awareness were deadlier than any fighting styles.
Zhang Jin watched the development curiously as she wondered what Wang Tong would do next.
Flash was a paragon of both confidence and skills; the earthlings were lucky to have gained such a genius.
As everyone became curious as to what Wang Tong would do next, they watched as Wang Tong's lips curled into a wicked smile.
Across the simulation room, Flash smiled back with a pair of knowing eyes.
The two's strange exchange of smiles had dumbfounded the audiences, as they found it hard pressed to come up with the meaning behind those smiles.
The third round started. The two fighters were all on their own since as the top fighters in the world, no one was able to offer them better advice on what they should do than themselves.
Wang Tong's supporters felt anxious, as they worried that pressure would bend Wang Tong's will and lead him to make mistakes. They also wondered what Wang Tong would do once his cheap turtle tactics had been countered.
The audiences boiled over at the sight of Wang Tong's opening formation. It was the Art of Soaring Heaven.
Some people's jaw almost dropped after seeing a player whose was best at defense deploy an aggression focused tactic. Some people marveled at Wang Tong's recklessness in braving the riskiest and the most challenging tactics in the world.
If Wang Tong wanted the element of surprise, he had already lost it a few minutes into the battle after Flash's scout had successfully sniffed out Wang Tong's intention for early aggression.
As Flash readied his anti-air units, Wang Tong's first assault ship sailed out of the starport.
Although Flash's defense mobilization and reconnaissance was impeccable, everyone was caught by surprise by what happened when Wang Tong's force charged into Flash base,



Wang Tong couldn’t wait to live his college life - girls, parties, and the dorm life - everything he had ever dreamed of. But, instead of a letter of admission to the college, he had received a ticket to the planet Norton and a contract with the Confederation as a space settler. Soon after his arrival, the Zerg overran the planet and obliterated its defenses in a matter of moments. What awaited Tong on Norton was more than just an unbearable environment - its gravity alone was five-times stronger than earth - there were also swarms of bugs, constant hunger, thirst, and desolation...

Venture into the Tempest of The Battlefield, unlock the secrets within the mysterious space crystals, and meet the legendary Blade Warriors and the potent sword combat tactic: "Ultimate Tactics of the Blade: 256 Genome Nuclear Force".

An honest and humble low-tier robot and a ghost with a mouth full of nonsense both teamed up with Wang Tong in a fight for survival against all odds.
