@@Laber77 I expect a challenger player to not respect lower elo players that much because he clearly outclasses them. No need to be humble about crushing noobs on his fast climb to masters.
Congratulations! It's honestly so impressive to me that your understanding of the game lets you climb through the highest tiers with such a wide champion pool. Picking up a new champion and face grand master one tricks with thousands of games in the match up and still be able to win is wild.
That trick of getting executed to keep the enemy wave under tower was brilliant. I've never thought of that, but that might save me so many games. Thank you, Pekin!!!
Yeah, just be careful doing it - if your timing is off, you give a kill, and if you're level 7+, death timers get long enough that they can push and get plates (sometimes still your best option, but you do lose something)
Tyler1 gets exalted for being a lol god after climbing to challenger on each role. He was maining one mechanically easy champ in each role (that's very good and the proper way to climb). Meanwhile here's this guy, playing every single champ he could think of, even stuff that should never be top (f.e. Soraka) and finishes his climb in less than 2 months. What does that make him? So, what's next? Support to challenger? God Hand 3: Return of The Hand? Will we get all 5 roles just to take a dump on Tyler's desk?
Congratz on completing the Challenge Pekin! I think the games where you went 0-6 and still won show that you are able to actually let yourself get carried whereas many people don't have the mental to play from behind and make the game impossible to win even for fed teammates. That is one of the reasons I prefer to watch your content. Even when things go south you stay composed, don't tilt and try to win. Wish you all the best!
What a gamer. Seriously, watching you play is such a fun thing, you have a unique insight into the game. Congrats and looking forward to whatever comes next.
Nice going! It's crazy to think that you did this while playing such a wide variety of different top laners as well (with a generous helping of WW top of course).
Challenger in 2 months on an off role - what a kda player xD. Honestly, gratz Pekin! Incredible work as always. Not sure what your future plans are, but the top climb was VERY entertaining - seeing you try out new champs and a different role was great, but honestly, I'm here to watch literally w/e style of content you put out. So here's to more success. PS: Big fan of the game where you're a vampire trying to trick people on your 2nd channel. Always get a kick outta it.
Honestly it’s been so much fun watching you carry games with just your game knowledge and decision making alone. Congrats, now do jungle to challenger next :D
CONGRATULATIONS. Been rooting for you and being able to shift to a different lane and still be highly competitive is no easy task, you've done great. It's also really amazing that you've done it not playing champs you're comfortable with but with all kinds of champs, it might feel like luck has played a part and maybe it has but you still did something very few players can hope to achieve. You're probably the best example of a league player and content creator, your videos are educational and skilled.
Thanks for the recap at the end! It seems like you're mostly just happy to be done but it was a lot of fun to watch. It's a big commitment to challenger climb on one role, but I do think it's entertaining to have some sort of goal or challenge that links multiple videos/streams together. Looking forward to what you come up with next😄
I mean this is proof that keeping mental is often enough to win you the games. I like to think "I may not carry but at least I won't be the reason my team loses"
This was an amazing series ❤ I learned so much & appreciate you explaining how all the champions worked. I would definitely watch another climb if you ever tried another role.
Like the fact that Pekin is open about being carried in those games instead of hiding it. Truly a challenger. I think what makes Pekin special is his vast knowledge of every champion and macro strategy. Congrats mate.
Have had fun watching Pekin explore off meta builds, pop off on classic champs, and generally goof off with the community. I just want Pekin to do what makes him happy and creative. We eat great with all his League content, but naturally the game is stressful at times so Pekin, I hope you feel courageous enough to blend other games into your content someday! I understand the algorithm makes that difficult, but maybe the pre established community will translate - I know I'd support anything you put out! The games during queue brought a lot of color in. Anything to get good vibes going, smart sarcasm is fun, but as a viewer, I want Pekin to enjoy himself most of all More relatedly, In the vein of this series, support would be fun to explore. Show us crazy Swarm mode moments (if you like the game mode!), crazy ARAM moments, show us if TFT either bores or mind-blows Pekin. I'm game for anything and everything
In a way, it’s like you played top lane for laning phase, then switched to a support role afterward since you spent a lot of time setting up your teammates for success instead of trying to carry. Back in the day (like season 3), that was my favorite way to play the game (in any role really) since I didn’t have serious knowledge or carrying skills and it always made for a positive team experience which helps as well!
I was hoping I could learn a lot of stuff from these videos as a top laner myself, but I doubt I learnt enough to be able to climb from gold to challenger in 2/3 months now haha. Absolutely insane games sometimes making master look like iron, very well played sir
It's been fun to follow the climb. My mind is boggled by your ability to explain stuff, and predicting things to happen before it happens, while focusing on the game. I guess it comes some what naturally with all the gaming.
Been fun watching this climb, especially with so many off meta picks. It's been a long time since I've played the game but it really shows how all those "I'd be (insert rank here) if my team mates were better" type stuff you see is partially true, but actually knowing the game overall is also important.
Ahhhhh, pinchi Pekin eres la reataa, mano, neta felicidades por llegar en tiempo record. Lastima que se acaba la serie pero espero más contenido de calidad de tu parte.
Wow congrats Pekin. That... didn't take very long. Xdd So what do you think? Did this experience make you a better player? What'd you learn (if anything) about the game? How do you feel about the accomplishment? Cheers bruv, love ya.
I think you'd have three times as much fun running support to legend. So many more wacky viable picks even into Masters - it became a little clear how bored you were with some of the meta top champs as the series went on. Overall, what an amazing run! It's crazy to think you're regularly 3x Challenger for 9 years and then can just shift to top with so much skill carryover. GJ PEKIN!
I remember when Pekin used to post before I went to bed, now he posts when I wake up, thats the dedication to climb right there! :D Congrats, Pekin, we all knew you could make it.
bro the fact you just casually played every top laner instead of just spamming a couple champs is inspiring. you could probably play fill to challenger and get it tbh
Glad to see you achieved your goal. Congratulations, you deserve this, I followed this trajectory since the start. But I'm glad you're done with it because I also don't quite like the top lane champions lmao. Hope you go back playing your squish mages that I love so much
Man gonna miss the series, I'm also a main mid who avoided toplane as much as possible. But with this series I have grown to try the roll and actually enjoyed it. Hope we get to see a tad more of top lane still even if we go back to frequent mid games
I love your vids so much man specially these series, would be really fun to watch you do other roles but you dont have to commit for challenger if you dont want to, maybe just committing to a role for 1 month or something to see how high you climb would be good enough and who knows maybe it will feel reachable. Anyway, thanks for the content man youre a legend
Your ability to play so many champs and climb through high tier rankings where otps with 1000s upon 1000s of games play and still win those games shows the tremendous skill a consistent challenger level player has towards game fundamentals and matchups, and how those are very core towards playing league of legends.
Grats dude! I watch you for your mid lane content but it was crazy watching this climb. Good work! It is a real shame chat didn’t alert you to this factoid: if you got to challenger without Renata Glasc, you actually didn’t get challenger.
