A youtube comment said it's impossible to carry with AP Bard Mid. So let's do that. | 13.9

[@Zince]

needs a replay to see where the f is hecarim

[@JoelHangai]

I love at 17:58 when Hecarim dies solo to Garen and for a split second you see garen emoting lol

[@TheHolladiewaldfeee]

yeah I liked that too. Garens "no hands playstyle" combined with his absolut massive taunting emotes are a combination straight out of hell.

[@suspectsn0thing]

​@@TheHolladiewaldfeeeif you're ever fighting a really toxic and tilted lane opponent on Garen, just hit em with the "Outplayed." whenever you kill them with your ult. Garenteed to send someone off the deep end.

[@cora2331]

I love bards roundness he's so soft looking, also his ability sounds are very pleasant:)

[@ThatJesusFreak9]

Braum mid would be a really fun pick. I like to go hail of blades so you can proc passive in lane with all 3 autos and q quickly. Excellent at gank setup and fun to play! I normally start with sun fire agis to try to help with the farm, you could also just roam nonstop. I normally go radiant or locket for mithic. If needed you can go frozen for mana too. I hope you give it a go :)

[@brunodominick4931]

up

[@paulspl2581]

Can go abyssal mask first item as well into AP matchup, it synergizes pretty well with braum's kit + magic damage from sunfire/thornmail/jaksho and also if you have another magic dmg dealer on your team it sets them up for success

[@mugiwarat]

Would love that

[@semistro]

The sivhd special huh

[@bahajirutmspt436]

to this day one of my biggest traumas in league is a lethal tempo Braum going full AS stunlocking me

[@davidkukovski4237]

Attack speed neeko or maybe ad neeko would be a fun thing to try! Love the series

[@Flairsurfer]

I legit use this sometimes if I'm on an AP heavy team. It's pretty strong actually since she has a long root in her kit.

[@xordid]

on hit neeko is legit and super fun

[@user-gx6tu3mf4k]

Hybrid neeko with new rageblade is so nice

[@MumbleCatto]

not really an off meta pick since people really do play it

[@user-gx6tu3mf4k]

@@MumbleCatto it's off meta in every sense of the word what do you mean.

[@astasjaa]

Bard actually has decent wave clear later on when you’ve collected lots of chimes cause you get a few of the big wave auto attacks from meeps and with more ap they deal pretty good damage

[@nerfnut2661]

Yeah, later on , but the sooner you can wave clear fast the better. When you're versus an any meta midlaner that can q the wave twice and it's almost all dead except for the melees and you're still stuck with your q that only hits 2 creeps and still don't have aoe on your autos it sucks a lot trying to shove out when any other midlaner can just shove you in

[@MrAliFranca]

Both of you are right

[@lizzfrmhon]

Garen dancing with Shelly at the end 😂❤👍🏼

[@jaimie3818]

Little known fact about Bard, the more chimes you collect the more frequent they spawn on the map. So you get punished for ignoring them early.

[@darly5448]

There was also once a youtube comment that said that Skarner mid just CANNOT be done

[@absnted]

I actually prefer night harvester > lich bane > nashors > deathcap with electrocute it makes your trades stupid strong with strong oneshot potential lategame

[@Audacitycs1]

This series is so fun to watch. Pekin you're really sweet bro.

[@sendienemt]

Gotta go again with the lillia mid! Love the series so far, keep up the great work!❤

[@torvaga]

It's a nice twist to see your thought on the game play from different perspectives playing different champs

[@marziomoretti6167]

Let’s go Mr. Pekin

[@TheMuffinsama]

Rift Herald dancing is always so cute

[@legend0fwill]

17:17 the random Hec going on a magical journey 😭

[@ThanksProdigy]

loving this series man, keep it up

[@LucasNascimento-ws2jq]

Man, I enjoy watching your videos every night. Keep up the good work!

[@garretthafeli7499]

Did Pekin play Skarner mid? No. Lose Streak: 549

[@nomadsoul2656]

Pekin, I would love if you played lethality Quinn!

[@K3N71]

ive been trying a senna build with comet + scorch, inspired by tobias's comet graves mid. I start tear and instantly start stacking it by q'ing allies before minions spawn. Build is Eclipse => Manamune => RFC. If you're behind, you can buy support item after first item and skip the manamune.

[@bradlupien2770]

Lulu mid has been one of my favorites since season 4. Karma mid and morgana mid are my current mains.

[@epbwacko]

Thanks for the tip on entering Bard portals! I never understood where I am supposed to click and always mess it up in the most unfortunate timings...

[@kendobc]

Would have loved to hear their chat during the garen push at the end. "HECARIM!!!!" (=

[@levenkek]

I am sad for no reason and I can't sleep because of this, but you help me to calm down

[@brodew6595]

Would love to see full AD sion mid, you exert so much pressure with R to both side lanes, and you deal a ridiculous amount of damage basically all game

[@jonathanrussell8998]

That Garen got the Shelly dance, absolute popoff

[@kindcellar5910]

As a Skarner main. I am here again to ask for a full AP Skarner Mid.

[@caffeinatedphysicist]

Static shiv on bard for waveclear? good? bad?

[@andyrangel8247]

I’ve been carrying a good amount of games doing tahm kench mid! I’ve been grinding out of bronze and just got to promos, so it might not be too viable, but my match-ups with heartsteel make me so annoying late game😂

[@yurikruk]

Butterflies walk among the ants just to show how beautiful life can be. Kayn mid

[@olaaatchauuu]

could you try seraphine mid/top? or maybe some cait lethality mid

[@stanholsappel6743]

Can you play Quinn mid? Burst style and huge roaming power

[@HiiImChris]

Ok listen up mister, please listen. I main seraphine mid but was trying to find a bizarre variant pick to add to my pool. I think miss glasc is fucking cool, but i aint supporting shit. I tried many builds, this is what i settled on that was actually somewhat viable (im plat, not great, but not horrid i suppose): -Runes- PTO or lethal tempo, possibly hail of blades? -items- Rageblade, new shiv, nashors, other on hit ap/ad items with good cdr. I think ionian boots are best for w and ult. Her waveclear is actually not completely non existent. Her aa can do some work and her e max helps you in trades and controlling the waves. Her aa is like a mini zed passive but obv isnt the best, but once you get someone else to aa a target her passive becomes insane with two 5% health procs (ur aa, and adc or w.e) every .5 second.

[@sudxs2589]

been waiting for this all day. thanks

[@shotdregghun8374]

Let's see some Ahri countering with Nautilus pick! Quite relevant with super high Ahri pick rate, and definitely an odd pick.

[@darkjolteon4]

Wouldn't the new Statikk shiv solve Bard's waveclear problems? or am i just dumb?

[@pretzels1208]

Asking Pekin to play AP on hit neeko mid day 8: The build is nashor's tooth, wit's end and riftmaker. Go full ap next and take lethal tempo. You should play it before patch 13.10 screws this build up. Thanks in advance!

[@FnegThomin]

Once again I am asking for viego mid. He used to be strong back in the day, and it'd be cool to see it again.

[@igerstel]

Gangplank AP/ability haste for ultimate spam (and nothing else!). Or just regular on-hit/crit GP would be fun, unless it turns into a boring farm lane until barrels get maxed.

[@YanelArez]

the end was so funny, garen got 4 towers with that herald

[@BelligerentSky]

i wanna see enemy chat at the end. where tf was hecarim?

[@alrondinella]

I would like to see if Illaoi is a viable pick in the midlane

[@WenchesNMead]

Some AD Elise mid would be a banger

[@Francoenter]

Why not an ap/as bard with the new ap scaling adc items from patch 13.10? Statik solves the no wave clear problem.

[@PhilipBrownEsq]

no ult tower at 7:30 ?

[@vhettal_7360]

My Man! You just played one of my mains offlane! I played him with crown, liche bane and nashor's

[@billygardner2174]

Let’s get prowlers renekton before prowlers gets removed (or the lizard wizard, AP renekton)

[@Naathalia12]

Nice. I'm so curious about what was doing the Hecarim at the end 😂😂

[@zacharythompson9755]

i love your bard it’s so clean

[@Tarrandus]

Tahm Kench mid is a good counterpick to Yasuo and Qiyana. Probably other melees as well but those are the matchups I've played. Gotta play it a little smart and careful pre-6, but post 6 you just eat them and spit them out under your turret for the kill very easily.

[@gavvowest]

That end was wild.

[@miblik]

Are there any Bard OTPs with youtube channels?

[@loganwalls8865]

Has anyone suggested Sivir mid yet? Crit or lethality

[@aussieamon]

I see Dark Harvest in the thumbnail and I watch it, I have a stack addiction.

[@Mossdeep5464]

I honestly wish i could see HECs point of view for that games cause that was funny as hell

[@JackbJK]

could you do an ap akshan game? You have 55% ap ratio on each auto if you hit 3 auto attacks and have nashors and kraken, and it gets even higher with guinsoos

[@xreage]

Im sure Elise mid would be fun to watch

[@Dat1337boi]

what about some on hit viegar with nashor's tooth, new rageblade, and static shyv

[@Zsuttey]

Pekinpuff the legend Aphelios anywhere would be amazing

[@quietchase]

It’s Pekin time!!!!!!!

[@JumalaPlays]

Volibear mid next?

[@Momokitsuu]

Hiya! Big fan, id love to see an anivia vid I rarely see her at all nowadays. ;) thanks for the content

[@shiah]

All hail the chime boi!

[@cortthornton8782]

Alright, now hear me out: Bard Zilean botlane

[@Victorcus]

I didn't knew rift dances when you win with it xD

[@Noodlyk18]

This is totally irrelevant but i'm just curious, don't know if you'll see this but, why yahoo for your business email?

[@agigglingturtle1754]

Did you know Goredrinker gives Omnivamp? Did you further know Akali’s AD scaling are actually pretty good??

[@Alex-ng2sf]

I think the problem with this video not getting a lot of views or iterations. Is that the title is kind of weak. Didn’t really pull me in this time. (Something to think about. Have a nice day) ❤

[@trebbomb25]

Would love to see Udyr mid! (any build)

[@lasrrr2675]

While we're in the ranks of "wave clear matters less", how about AP Leona? Big ult damage on a shortish cooldown could make for some fun one-shots

[@wynpharoh1777]

Bard OP, Pekin confirmed

[@emiliahadley7063]

Wooooooo

[@shadowismyfriend122]

Well done, Pekin! You could try Nilah mid. :)

[@ThePsychopathicD]

It would be impossible to carry with ad thresh mid.😉😂😂

[@nickle3759]

I love this bard skin

[@l3uh2012]

Id like to suggest lucian mid, havent seen that pick in ages

[@Lurkkkkk]

He did it

[@dengolo8404]

Lethal tempo on hit nidalee would be pretty funny with krake, bork , wits guinsoo etc. The reason is e gives attack speed XD

[@lukestuart3546]

Play Cho'gath with protobelt. You've done ap cho before, but I haven't seen one where you built protobelt.

[@juliantrasak7230]

Maybe on-hit Bard with the new Rageblade and Statik Shiv could work? That would fix his waveclear at least

[@gohzan6767]

Well done, you carried with AP Bard, but can you carry with AP Yasou?

[@shika404]

Statik shivs return gives machine gun lulu some much needed buffs to waveclear 👀 would love to see you play her now that the patch is out

[@stephendahood1746]

Hey Pekin, I’m waiting on assassin Renekton mid

[@zontraxz9910]

best champ best youtuber

[@boboa6013]

Even with bars this guy goes t Crazy

[@Kmartwastaken]

Day 12 of asking Pekin to play full attack speed ahri for the off-meta climb, double digits now!! The new patch has ap ratios on the attack speed weapons, so build nashor's and this even better :)

[@d0ppelganger421]

Hey you know what I think full ap rammus mid could work plus it would be hilarious.

[@wrgy]

ad ahri mid/bot is impossible to focus in a teamfight if played well and is really fun

[@nqvv4966]

I think jhin mid will be pretty interesting to watch

[@PhilipBrownEsq]

Also, even for "AP" bard, seems like nashors should be first item? #teemothings but I suppose everfrost wins for the control-mage annoyance factor

[@raphaelantoine7331]

That was the only game where I rooted for you losing, that's how much bard disgusts me

[@gutemberg7946]

Illaoi Illaoi Illaoi Illaoi

[@lyyretv1126]

Prowlers riven mid makes you super sexy gamer

[@ClickZephyr]

Where was Hecarim? ModCheck

[@nikolaiasg8286]

LETS GOOOOOO BARD MID

[@anyelgarcia]

I think hecarim was on dragon. Nice game!

[@Howdoyoupurr]

Human form over 50% health more damage spider under 50% for extra damaga

[@DustinHarms]

Love me some Bard gameplay

[@sirsoulna7493]

Urgot mid is fun when you need AD for the team.
