The word victory flashed across the stadium screens.
"…!"
In Michigan Stadium in the U.S.A, there was deafening silence in this stadium as the crowd took a few seconds to react.
And when they did, they erupted into cheers, fists pumping in the air.
"Team England!" "Team England!" "Team England!"
They cheered at the top of their lungs.
At this moment, this stadium seemed to transform into a weird representation of the legendary yin and yang. All England supporters represented the yang, feeling on top of the world as they celebrated their country's victory.
As for the Portugal supporters, they were very much subdued, quiet and somber, silently observing the joy of the England supporters and wondering about what could have been.
Amid the fan excitement, the commentators also screamed in excitement, breaking down the key moments of this epic team battle; the precise counterplays, the environmental tactics, the sheer brilliance of the final gambit.
All of it was unforgettable to those who watched it live.
On stage, Team England's players finally reacted in their gaming booths as they removed their headsets, their faces a mix of exhaustion and exhilaration.
That game was extremely exhausting, but boy was it worth it!
"Come on," Gabriel grinned. "Don't hold back, let's celebrate!"
They exchanged handshakes, backslaps, and even a few triumphant grins as they celebrated their iconic victory while the camera focused on them, matching their energy with that of their excited fans.
Across from them in the other gaming booth, coming out, Team Portugal players maintained their sportsmanship as they nodded in respect.
Of course, they were dejected but they did give their all out there on the arena so they had no regrets.
It was the first game of the inaugural Warstar RPG World Championship but it had been a battle for the ages, one that would be studied, debated, and remembered in eSports history.
The Ancient Frost Realm, once an icy wasteland, now holds the echoes of an unforgettable war.

Who said the game between England and Portugal was the best spectacle that Pro Warstar had ever produced?
The second game of the first day beat the record of Gabriel's England's historic win over Team Portugal.
Team China… was scary.
Led by their infamous captain, Meng Yu Wa, Team China literally steamrolled their way through Germany's team with imperious power and skill.
In the individual battle, Captain Meng Yu Wa started first for the Chinese team with his infamous Blademaster avatar, Autumn Rain.
There are rumors that in real life, Meng Yu Wa was a martial artist. No one knew for sure, but his skill with his Blademaster avatar were unparalleled in the Warstar eSports scene.
In the individual battle, he didn't just beat his opponent, beating was an understatement. Rather, he mutilated him, dissected him apart, rendered him helpless in the face of Mount Tai.
It was a humiliation and that set the tone for the rest of the contest.
In the 2nd individual battle, Team Germany's captain took the stage to help his country win back some prestige and morale. He did win against Team China's representative, and that ended up being the only point that they got in the contest.
In the 3rd individual battle, Team China's representative won and then in the 3 vs 3 battle rush, it was a blood bath.
Meng Yu Wa led his team to a completely one-sided victory to the joy of the spectating Chinese fans as they kept on roaring at the top of their lungs.
"It's coming home!" They sang in Chinese.
The Chinese fans were absolutely confident that their national team was bringing the first edition of the Warstar RPG World Championship home.
In the team battle against Team Germany, their national team indeed proved their credentials, once again orchestrated and led by Meng Yu Wa.
The team battle was one for the ages.
The location for their battle was the Enormous Floating Citadel. The Enormous Floating Citadel is another famous location in the game, an enormous floating citadel suspended above a storm-ridden abyss.
Both national teams let it all out in this final showdown for supremacy.
Arcane storms raged, bullets ricocheted and steel clashed against magic in a dazzling display of skill, precision, and raw power.
In the end, the Chinese Captain dominated again as in this team battle, his talents truly shown, completing an incredible 1 vs 3 win in the biggest stage of Warstar RPG, the World Championship stage.
His battle was one for the ages.
Team China won the battle with only 1 of their players dead, it was an overwhelming victory.
And with that, day 1 of the Warstar RPG World Championship was concluded.
Team Portugal and Team Germany dropped out of the tournament, while Team China and Team England progressed into the 2nd round.
