The arena gates groaned open, and silence fell over the crowd. On one side stood polished champions in gleaming armor, each expecting another measured battle of positioning and cooldowns. On the other stood a trio that looked almost accidental. A subtle rogue, face hidden beneath a dark hood. A frost-covered mage lazily twirling a shard of ice. And between them, an unassuming Preservation Evoker whose emerald scales shimmered in the afternoon sun. The spectators laughed. "Healer cleave?" someone muttered. "They'll never kill anything." The horn sounded. The rogue vanished before anyone blinked. The mage drifted forward, fingers tracing ancient runes through the air. The Evoker inhaled. Not to attack. To wait. The enemy team charged. A warrior leapt. A demon hunter soared. A paladin activated every shining defensive blessing imaginable. It looked unstoppable. Then the rogue appeared behind the warrior. Kidney Shot. The mage froze time for an instant. Polymorph. Counterspell. Ring of Frost. The battlefield became a prison. The Evoker smiled. Not because victory was certain. Because everything had happened exactly where they wanted. The rogue called over voice chat. "Now." Emerald energy exploded across the arena. Dream Breath. Echo. Verdant Embrace. Health bars that had barely moved suddenly surged. The enemy relaxed for the smallest fraction of a second. That was the mistake. The mage unleashed a barrage of ice, each lance striking like a ballista. The rogue danced through shadows, every stab amplified by perfect timing. The Evoker wasn't just healing. Every Echo duplicated the rogue's survivability. Every Rescue repositioned allies into flawless angles. Every Time Dilation denied the enemy's burst. The opposing healer struggled to keep pace. Then panic began. One target fell. Another. The enemy's cooldowns disappeared into nothing. The next match lasted even less. The rogue opened with impossible precision. The mage controlled two players at once. The Evoker anticipated every attack before it happened. Whenever the enemy believed they had finally cornered someone... Emerald wings. A Rescue. A Life Swap. Another impossible escape. The crowd stopped cheering for individual plays. They watched the trio move like one creature with three bodies. Word spread across the tournament. "Don't stack." "Don't chase the rogue." "Kick the mage." "CC the Evoker." Every strategy sounded perfect. None survived contact with reality. Because every interrupt on the mage left the rogue free. Every stun on the rogue let the Evoker reposition him. Every crowd control on the Evoker was answered by the mage's own control. No weak link existed. By sunset, dozens of teams had fallen. Veterans. Gladiators. Tournament favorites. One after another. The scoreboard looked unbelievable. Win. Win. Win. Win. The announcer stared at the numbers. "They've defeated nearly every contender today." The rogue merely sharpened another dagger. The mage adjusted a single icy glove. The Preservation Evoker looked over the empty arena, then quietly asked, "Queue again?" Both teammates nodded. The gates opened once more. And somewhere in the waiting room, another team saw the names appear on the matchup screen. Without a word, someone sighed. "...We're against them."

However, today, the Rogue, Mage and Evoker trembled when the gates opened. They were facing a dreaded team of competitors who terrorized the ladder. Trillebelly, Zhreystorm, and Darkarthas, were looking to take the Evoker down. The young dragon shook in his pants, knowing this team was the one team they could lose to.
