people didnt like submarine reksai last time so we do a bit of clickbait but also lets be real she got buffed to have the 80% on her W and 130% on Q (in arena). skilled sniper/bread and butter/true shot/accelerating/ethereal weapon are all pretty good. best in slot is for sure skilled sniper with ice cold + runecarver/ethereal to proc voltaic and just chain 99% slow into 99% slow over and over if you hit fast enough to energize. reksai is melee so voltaic will do the 99% for sure.

Patchnotes my man. Also Riot integrated an icon, that shows you buffs/nerfs on alternate game modes. If you hover with your mouse. Located at your buffs above the healthbar. Not quite sure if its also in arena. But probably is.

Tbf I'd be mad too 😂. Getting people mad in Arena with cheesy comp/augment is a compliment lol 😂

I have mixed feelings on the chatter vs lurker conversation. On one hand, I think you're absolutely right that you should have the agency to make your own decisions and not want people telling you how to play. That's super reasonable and I don't think it's entitled at all, streamer or otherwise, to get frustrated with people trying to analyze your gameplay or tell you all the things you're presumably doing wrong. Least of all when I'm sure there's usually a damn good explanation for it. That said, sometimes the combative way that you come across with it can be a bit frustrating to watch. Sometimes it seems more like people are just trying to engage with you, and are making suggestions or asking questions, not to pilot you or tell you that you're wrong, but simply because they want feedback from you or to just learn from the discussion. In those cases, I don't think it's entitled for a person to be frustrated with you for being so aggressive in how you shut them down. Again, you're absolutely right to shut down backseaters, but many times it seems like you're conflating the two and going off on people as backseaters when they're genuinely just trying to engage with you and your content. At the end of the day, it's not my place to tell you how to run your channel, so obviously take my criticism with a grain of salt. But when you build a platform that relies on engagement to earn your income and you shut down your community as they are literally asking you how they can best engage with you WITHOUT pissing you off, comments like "streamer hates their viewers" stops being entitled and starts to just be an observation of how you interact with them.

Ethereal weapons for lich bane is such an obvious synergy but one I hadn't ever thought of. I usually think of Ethereal for champs with built in onhit effects or champs who can rapid fire spells to use onhit items, but Lichbane is so much easier to make work with so many more champs.

"dealing with backsitters" bro backsitting is literally the essence of twitch streaming. only reason ppl watch his streams is cuz some people like backsitting instead of playing the game themself

The way he has this superiority complex over his chat is crazy. It's a highly respectable stance he has, he wants to be able to make his own mistakes without constant bickering over it and that's completely fine but nobody cares how right you are when you act like an a-hole over it. It's the same reason why people dislike Riot Phreak so much.

Maybe for the backseaters, you can do one game where you have chat vote on a champ and each item and augment choice. If get 1st, backseaters OP, if 8th, backseaters bad. Totally scientific empirical evidence of chat opinion effectiveness XD Anyways, love the videos, your game knowledge give me so much inspiration for new builds, ty for the education :D

Submarine Rek'sai is really fun, i love playing it.

What do you think of full healing yi with holy fire/moonstone/spirit link

I personally dislike the concept of preferring lurkers over people who engage with content, and there is a difference between engaging and backseating, asking streamers who are better than you questions about the champion, asking about item choices or why the streamer made a decision is usually from my experience someone trying to learn, and it isnt rare to see streamers blame people who do this as backseaters, I think prioritizing non engagement makes streams / channels stale when no one comments or speaks to each other in order to try to make the streamer happy just my two cents

I feel like playing such builds makes every miss hurt twice as much, I would be fuming every time the missile didn't connect 😅

Lets gooo submarine champiooon

Varus has a bug where his E counts as 6 abilities. Onhit on abilities augment + manamune means 12 procs of manamune per E. 6 for each onhit through augment, 6 for ability onhit from the item by default. Hatchet stacks faster too, and mystic punch counts, so your E gives 6 stacks of mystic CD, giving your E infinite uptime. Anything augment that involves "on auto" works with this, so lategame you can be proccing manamune for 6k dmg per round easy.

Ap rek sai in aram is fun, glad to see the buffs in arena

i kinda disagree with the take about viewer suggestions, the people are on stream instead of watching youtube videos because they want to interact with the streamer and making suggestions is pretty much the only way besides glazing the streamer or asking questions and they can do both of those on a youtube comment. if you ask your chat to be the youtube comment section then why are they on stream instead of the youtube video that will come out eventually, that will take less time out of their day and will be a better viewing experience
