[@DurgrBubble]

dang, who knew Barney was such a badass

[@irvingh8603]

Is that Minjae Kim Aatrox?

[@xXG3TPWNEDXx]

SRO get's at least 1 pentakill this game.

[@deykerrrr6364]

9:54, I think aatrox is guaranteed dead if bwipo just all ins, start with auto - fury W - 1st e - fury q - auto - 2nd e , done fast enough aatrox probably cant even flash away and just dies. I believe bwipo is a great pro top laner but I feel as his renekton in lane Is much weaker compared to other players in terms of at least trading patterns. He always manages to get cs leads tho atleast when I watch him.

My problem with renekton is I dont see what he does better than voli or panth. Voli is a hilarious dive machine in the early game and just impossible to lane against for lots of melees. He has strong short trades, and if he ever gets the second w its gg. And then at level 6, like renekton, you dive the enemy top every day of the week. Panth literally has better renekton w. It applies on hits just like renekton and also has a dash. Panth is weakest when renekton is strongest in the midgame, but panth has a better early lane phase and a way better late game so you can set yourself up better and have a fallback plan You never end up in renekton level 1 land, and you get to take ignite. You're much better into range matchups and dont get outscaled. If you want the point and click stun bot who creates space, I just never get why renekton is the premier choice. Maybe the sun will shine on me someday.

[@masterv1be815]

voli bear- The Q MS nerfs fucked up your early trading, making it very hard to engage trades yourself unless the enemy steps into basically melee range. Unlike renekton, volibear only has sustain in long drawn out fights and none outside of combat, plus anyone in an elo above bronze will know to disengage to not allow you to get multiple Ws off. His mobility is very limited and his oneshot is nowhere near as reliable as renekton because its easy to move out of his E, especially if he cast it late, as is usually the case vs mobile champs. His towerdives might be better, but his R CD is ginormous as a trade off. His E eats like 60% of his power budget and you lose basically any trade where you fail to land it on both yourself and the enemy. His passive is really ehh unless you go AP. And to top it all off he isn't manaless and running out of mana can very much be an issue panth- not tanky and doesn't have a good bruiser build path

[@Samer_Design]

i will fight voli all day lol at least things can go slowly and you can olay save and cs , but in panth mathuo his fkkkkin perma Q spam i s aiiiiids with alot of dmg , and you cant even cs if he good enough

[@philliprust6712]

in my experience its heavily rene favored if you use e properly

[@jairoparra8798]

Hey man love your vids, great content. You should upgrade your mic when you get a chance. Aesthetically speaking it would make it more enjoyable to listen. Just a tiny suggestion, keep up the great work!

[@OZE1]

I think he has a better mic at his house

[@ToxikSharkCA]

Who was the Aatrox? he made it seem like he was famous

[@obelisk312]

@Kim-minjae

[@sub-zero5098]

This guy is terrible at Renekton. Perma ulting way too early

[@Lohith_lol]

What times? Pretty hard to ult early on renek since the fury over time is so valuable. Worst ult was against the yas, but other than that they were solid ults

[@soul0172]

the guy gets high chall with 65%+ winrate on Renekton, consistently carries in pro play with it, what makes you think you know how to play the game better than him

[@Lohith_lol]

@@soul0172 making blanket defenses when the guy is bashing bwipo for one game is also wrong. Take it on a case to case: bwipo did not play perfect and made a few mistakes that can be learned from this game. I do think criticizing his ults is wrong since ulting early on renek is best value, and he really only messed up the one ult vs yas top

[@soul0172]

​@@Lohith_lol??????? his comment says "this is guy is terrible at Renekton" does it not? How is my response a blanket statement when it's a direct response to his statement? I'm not replying to a comment saying "hey I think Bwipo could've played better this game"

[@andreiflamindu5188]

He literally explains at 14:48 why he uses r early
