"Nice shots, Jett," his teammate typed. Elias felt a rush of adrenaline that was better than any drug. He wasn't just playing; he was a god.
The first match was on Ascent. Elias held B-Main with an Operator. Normally, his heart would be hammering, his palms slick with sweat. But as a Jett dashed across the gap, the bot reacted before Elias’s brain even registered the movement. Crack. The kill feed lit up. One shot. One kill.
But the seed of panic was planted. That night, the forum thread where he’d bought the bot was deleted. The developer’s last message was a single sentence: Vanguard updated. Use at your own risk.
