    Honestly I debated if I should upload this video.. PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE POST to understand where I was coming from.
    I was invited to a charity tournament that would mix content creators and LCS Pro Players. I was very excited to get to play with and against the literal best players on the server and stream it for my community on Twitch. Unfortunately 2 hours before the tournament my internet upload speed plummets to 0.5% of what it's supposed to be, so I spent the next 2 hours leading up to the tournament on the phone with Comcast customer support which is probably the most frustrating thing in the world. I was extremely sad and mad that I wouldn't even be able to stream the tournament, but at least I could play in it.
    I knew we would have hard matches, as our ADC player was actually a Platinum Support Swain one-trick named DocRespawn -- very nice guy btw. So I tried to go above and beyond and coached him on Karthus ADC (extremely easy + useful pick) for several hours -- however when it came to game day he ended up picking Swain anyways. I didn't really understand why he let me spend my time coaching him on Karthus if he had no intention of playing it, so my growing frustration is probably visible in the video. It's not really fair to expect him, as a Platinum player, to be able to compete with literal LCS players, but I'm not a perfect person and to be honest it was just not a good day for me. So my bad for being frustrated, and hopefully it didn't come through to my teammates who were all really nice and chill people trying their best.
    I try to keep a strong mentality as a creator, player, and person but sometimes things just pile up -- which is why tournaments like this promoting mental health is so important. I'm very proud of my stream community raising hundreds of $ for charity even though I wasn't even able to stream it live, and I've left the link this video's description -- please consider donating to a great cause!
    Anyways I'll be playing again in the tournament and HOPEFULLY my internet lets me stream it. I'm going to be taking it much less seriously and just having fun with the boys, hope to see you there and thanks for reading

    Much love for uploading and that sucks that shit kind of hit the fan before the tournament started. We all have days like this and it's cool that you own it and make a conscious effort to not project onto your teammates. I've been the swain before and trust it never feels good to know you aren't playing as well as your teammates. I can guess that he probably switched to Swain last minute because he was afraid of playing a new champ and dragging the team down, when people are afraid they run towards the familiar even though it's not always best. You played amazingly though, I can never get over your quick thinking and reflexes. Proud of the GSA

    For playing against who he was playing, Swain did a very decent job as ADC, though I definitely get why you may have felt a little upset there.
    I would probably have lost a little mental too.
    This was definitely worth watching, though, so thank you for uploading. I could tell you were upset, but it didn't seem unreasonably so. Especially after I read your comment.

    In the nicest way possible, DocRespawn should not have been there. Might be a great guy. But even for a plat swain one trick he seems to not even know his own champion. I honestly thought he was first time swain player and adc player.
    Honestly for you to cope as well as you did and not tilt so heavily after dealing with the internet issues and then the frustrations of the game showcase just how professional of a player you are and how clearly you are the GSA (in America😉)

I laughed when he said "i got ulted by camille, i couldnt even flash out" like bruh that's basic knowledge you should know lol he probably doesn't have to play as safe in his plat games since swain is a bit on the tankier side, but not keeping enough mana for his ult is also very basic knowledge

      Yeah that honestly was the exact problem. And I'm not blaming them either, it is of course a charity tournament. In my experience for the game to feel good you need to be taking it EXACTLY the same level of seriousness as everyone else on the team -- everyone needs to be 4funning or everyone needs to be tryharding. The next day I realized this, I played a lot more for fun (playing Teemo Support, goofing around etc) and I had a much better time. So there is a valuable lesson in there!

    Literally the scoreboard at 33:19 shows it all. Everyone but you lost to their opposite pairing on the other side. In CS, score, and usefulness. The only one almost close would be Skarner vs Gwen. Gwen was marginally more ahead. As for the rest: Sej was ahead of Lee, Vik was ahead of Ryze, and Jinx was massively ahead of Swain. You were still ahead of Camille, but it looked like you were struggling hard at that point.

  • @thescottishtraveller

    As much as swain was making mistakes, I think it was almost exacerbated by everyone telling him what to do. Nobody did that when other players made huge mistakes.

    • @i0kiVids
      @i0kiVids  4 месяца назад +12

      When you are outclassed, you listen to what your teammates tell you to do. That's how you give your team the best chance of winning. You don't pick whatever champ you want, you don't try and make big plays, you listen. I know it's not the most fun way to play league, but we've all been there -- in fact in game 2 when Contractz plays jungle he tells me to do a lot of things -- I don't question it, I don't argue, I just do what he says because he is better than me. I'm not flaming Swain I'm just telling you how mixed skill bracket competition works.

      nah, chimchim and i0ki are cool friends in the past, it's pretty on brand for her to spam mastery. Her entire thing was basically fighting for i0ki's approval and i0ki NEVER giving it to her. "Best ADC NA?" "I never said that." "Mmmm, but I think you did." "Well you'd be wrong." "You heard it here, folks. Me and i0ki, best Support and ADC NA." "I said you played well ONCE."
      Seeing her flash mastery like that takes me right back XD
