Imaqtpie was once the biggest League of Legends content creator on KZread and Twitch, pioneering the "stream highlights" format to rapidly grow his fanbase in the span of only 2 years. Recognized for his incredible skill level and goofy personality, Imaqtpie was a fan favorite in the LoL community. But after a series of personal setbacks and growing frustrated with the game, Imaqtpie would vanish off KZread for over a year - abandoning the game that gave him his stardom. Welcome to LoLAthlete, this is What Happened to Imaqtpie.
Thank you for watching LoLAthlete :)

Nothing happened to him. If I remember correctly he was never really obsessed with League. He was a variety gamer to begin with. Once Twitch gave him a fixed income contract he started to play less League and that's about it. Why would he force himself to be miserable when Twitch was paying him fat paychecks no matter what? Believe it or not, but playing the same game all day every day, every week, every month, every year, is simply insane.

I understand how you feel. Heres the thing, channel like this one makes their money and views based on an algo that is meant to drive "interactions." When the league scene was just starting and quite frankly we all watched league based on pure love of the game and its players. Now days its these troll, reaction, and commentary channels that gets all the views. not the actual streamers themselves. Worst part about all this is that nothing about how QT getting older and being happy with what he has accomplished is mentioned. Its a series of focus on drama, failure, and lost of interest in the game. Who doesn't lose interest in a game that is 14 years old and you are aging right along with it?
Qt never vanished, always have a place in my ♥️ He helped me alot during depression with laughs🙏 So many epic moments: the 90 min game, the all surrender game with dyrus & anniebot, one vs one with Gosu, the feeding troll dotot, 0/10 xerath vs faker, banner of command troll game and so many more. Still watch some of his old videos nostalgia Thank you QT, wish you all the best in life🙏

And VoyBoy, bringing some positivity in league with his cold tech. Before he got madly depressed. I mean I'm sure he was depressed during, but he seems way more depressed now.
I think many of these old time streamers/LoL players fell victim to changing times and an aging audience. I remember watching streams and LoL content way back in the day and it was just a great time in general since LoL was so huge. I would say post 2016-2018 onward is when many folk from the original audiences started to move on with their lives, finish school, start university, start work etc. LoL streams/content was so over saturated by that point that it was hard for many of these content creators to "stick around" as to say. The younger/newer audience wasn't drawn to the content/content creators in the same way we all were back in the day, more so being drawn to more modernized content that we are all familiar with.

They simply got replaced by a newer generation of league streamers. Being in the LCS used to mean something back in the day, these guys had prestige in the League community. Playing in tournaments, hitting rank 10 in the past and just being known as an ex pro-player isn't considered special anymore on Twitch and KZread. Everyone is disillusioned especially by LSC and LEC players. If you want to make it in the Twitch scene, you have to be really good at league and entertaining. But you can't just be a washed ex pro player like back in the day and expect to be a successful streamer anymore. Btw. league of legends is much more popular now on Twitch than back in the day. We are just not in school anymore and people in our age group have other hobbies besides gaming, but the game is still thriving, just with a more diverse community (e.g. not just people in school anymore, but also people in university, with jobs and so on). So back in the day less people used to watch these league streamers, but we were all in the same age bracket and it was more common to talk about gaming as a hobby while being a teenager, so it was much just more likely to know other people playing league.

It feels like 2019-20 were the years most people dropped the game. Hell even I dropped around that time after hitting gold for the first time
I watched imaqtpie for the stunning good looks and immaculate taste in early 2000's gangster rap music. The adventure time moba stream will forever be iconic.
one of my favourite OG streamers he had a-lot of charisma compared to other league players. basically him and sneaky were probably the best pro league streamers to watch
OH thank god, I thought this was going to be a sad story, so happy to see qt doing alright used to watch him all the time.
Today it really feels like there's a deep seeded sadness embedded in him somewhere. He's a significantly different person, it worries me sometimes. Something just feels "off"

he's like a lot of us from the golden era and saw how crap the direction the games going and how much time it sucks from you compared to the rewards you get and simply moved on.

Best "short documentary" ever seen made to just place the sponsor. Solo bad

will always love qt. his streams were there for me in a very rough time, he kept me above water and i can never thank his goofy ass enough for that. that being said league of legends is boring to watch/play and he was bleeding viewers before he even stop streaming league. i don't rly have time for twitch streams like i used to (mainly due to having a different job that doesn't allow me to sit around and watch em while i work) and a game that i hate even more than league is valorant, so i don't really tune in for those, wish him the best tho dude is a legend.
