I like that you don't just complain about bad plays, you compliment the players when they actually do something right which is very refreshing. It seems like most people just chill and say nothing until someone pisses them off.
As an older league player, there is three big things they need to fix. 1. Fix the Client. So many newer players have no idea how to manage the client when starting out and I fervently recall hanging to help my newer guys in explaining every detail of the client. Optimizations would be great and less bugs would be awesome. 2. Make a tutorial for each role that accurately explains the game per role, and create mastery training for things like smite stealing, when to engage, csing under tower, etc,. Too many newer players don't know how the practice tool functions and they tend to auto pilot instead of actually practicing. 3. A seasonal relearner tutorial for newer players who aren't used to the game completely changing every season. Example being for newer players from season 13 going into season 14 having no idea how to adjust to the new map, monsters, and items. These changes might seriously help retention since we all know this game can be hell to get into. When large booms of popularity happens from things like Arcane, auxiliary games, or even from ESports it'd be great to make changes that would genuinely help newer players but most importantly holding that retention. In fact it wouldn't be a bad idea if they had pros or people very experienced with their lanes create tutorials in the league client to help newer people in those roles.
League is definitely not dead!! I've only been playing since December of last year! So far, my mains rotate around like Zeri, Jinx, Yuumi, Soraka, Ahri, and Briar, but I'm working on playing everyone at least once to get an idea of what I'm doing! Tips for other girls joining the fray: don't talk to people who ask if you're a girl, they'll tell you they love you after having known you for 1 total hour.
Never thought teemo of a roaming support. It makes sense though and you can control vision so much easier. Big brain stuff. Plus You can bait idiots easily
Great content as always. Your webcam does look a little foggy though. Makes me wonder whether you need to clean your camera lense or if it's just the bright light from the open window in the background.
I genuinely assumed yall were gonna lose. That last match Tahm Kench did what he been doing, but with the team (he should of been midline) but Skarner kind of peeled for you and jinx and then skarner jumped in and tanked after Tahm fell, that was a solid final fight
I think league is currently stagnating imo. Even the company said that most of the playerbase are the old players. I think they need to do some drastic rehaul to the game to make it more friendly to new players.
One issue is they'll have to handle smurfing somehow. People like ioki in this video just trolling in their ranked games doesnt help. The competitive integrity of low elo is cooked. Hes basically an advertisement for the game so its a net gain and he makes it look fun; but theres tens of thousands of players doing this. Mobas are also a very unattractive genre with GenZ and younger. Valorant took off with them, which is basically counterstrike. That shows riot is capable of rebranding a "dead" genre.
It won't be league that carries the moba torch forward. Its a know entity. And a lol 2.0 would just be a one time cash in of old players Its the concept of the game that riot or whoever can take into a next gen moba.
Ioki, hold up. briar is beginner friendly? don't you remember whwn you tried her out you intro hard? you could make it work after a few games because you have a lot of fundamentals mastery. new players do not. I strongly disagree with that one.
League is dead in the aspect that call of duty is dead. People know its rigged match making. The game itself is just naturally fun. So its played. People just arren't enjoying the terrible balance of the "rigged" games with the bad designed champions that are rewarded for playing against 0/10 0 cc 0 utility pure damage champs that aren't even farming properly. So yeah its "dead" as in it won't ever really grow anymore only going downward. But its not RIFT dead. Its not Anthem dead. Its old cod game level dead. Like the last years game.

Glad you appreciate that -- I always give credit where credit is due in addition to pointing out mistakes!

2 and 3, people can just rely on youtube videos. everyone does that for every video game anyway.
I love the Conso-lucian prize at 21:30
I'm like a year and a half into the game. All my friends played way back when.
Ty for the videos they really help me with playing with them.
Not ioki saying "hawk tua" every time he qs
4:59 i0ki hitting lucian with that hawk tuah
spit on that thang
7:29 the most successful abusive relationship in history 😂😅😂😅😂💀🤷♂️
HAHA, I can change it !!!
Just wanna say watching your videos really helped, went from bronze to platinum during this split so far, thanks ioki!
damn that kench was really trying to just run it down mid the whole second half, never with the team always 1v5
Captain teemo on duty!
ALWAYS on duty baby
Alright ioki, heartsteel teemo, but you're invisible to start fight with heartsteel proc and run

You can bait idiots easily
i0ki's movement is how we all dream ours is.

4:57 "HAWK THUA" - Ioki
eyyy, I know you said you never get anything out of ADCs going barrier, but Jinx was able to go after that Lucian because she had barrier!
29:16 the spell effect legit didn't hit, but hitboxes be hitboxin
“Hmm… that was pretty easy to dodge.” 😂
I genuinely assumed yall were gonna lose. That last match Tahm Kench did what he been doing, but with the team (he should of been midline) but Skarner kind of peeled for you and jinx and then skarner jumped in and tanked after Tahm fell, that was a solid final fight
Dropping a shroom on GA/Zonya's is always hilarious
They should make a happy feet penguin teemo skin just for i0ki
gotta try taking triumph and cutdown on secondary rune page, cut down does insane damage thought teh game
Nice news ! It is my main already 200 games this season
Masterclass in harvesting their mental
Ioki, do you think they should bring back Adaptive Helm? It would help tanks with DoT champs, I think.
Got the harvest, that's all that matters. Lol it's SRO stacking heartsteal all over again 😁👍
Teemo Support!! Great way to start my weekend!
"No jinx shoot her, help me" and im sitting here watching like "wtf jinx shoot the gun you idiot. Right click" oh that's not jinx 😂😂😂
30:17 gaslight gatekeep girlboss
This video hits different at ×0.25
Law Breakers just makes me sad to this day.
There are custom servers for it now, but I heard even those died. That game is legit cursed man.
BuT mY mAnA WaS oN cOoLdOwN
Teemo support makes me so happy
I will tell you how long I have been bad at this game. At one point when I was playing, Xerath was a fresh new champion.
Why do they build that shadowflame in the end. There is no way in hell that a Rabadon doesnt double that dps at that point. Its a wasted item slot.
41:07 😂
is this the marvel rivals guides guy
hmmm
Yeh I've been playing 13year now
im bronxe and i think i have played this for 10yrs
dem dodges
I play teemo support because of ioki button!🔘
Hype for the riot mmo
40:37 is a short LMAOOOO It could be like Teemo stealth part II XD
why do you click to walk when dead and watching others?
Real talk, after watching the replay, it legit didnt hit.
In 29 min Ahri charm rly do not hit I watch it 5 times and it really do not hit...
Huge jg gap
Hilarious, WP MAN
"had no abilities" after she literally ulted lmao the cope is strong
Katarina players be like

Wow

briar is beginner friendly?
don't you remember whwn you tried her out you intro hard?
you could make it work after a few games because you have a lot of fundamentals mastery.
new players do not.
I strongly disagree with that one.
omg phone forgive me.
you "inted" hard
The big mistake is playing teemo
The big mistake is seeing Teemo Support on the enemy team and not dodging ;)
