The Str#@!) The Weakest Team: Lotte Giants
About
The intense disciplinary culture of the Lotte Giants from decades ago has been resurrected in 2026. And this time, it's even worse. It has reached a point where losing is absolutely unacceptable. If you lose, you're dead. That has practically become the team tradition. However, players cannot grow through fear alone. As a result, the team with the strongest discipline has become the team with the worst performance. You must survive here somehow. You must either turn Lotte into a powerhouse or dismantle this toxic culture.
