The Most Secret Matchup Mechanic in League of Legends

[@octaviusshade7110]

That really fun to watch someone who is more satisfied by his opponent gameplay than his

[@Mali8029]

Petu is like a villain looking for someone on his shen matchup knowledge level

[@KegstandOG]

I have to agree, if more players were willing to admire the gameplay of someone else who is also good we would have a more respectful community as a whole. Much respect Petu! I love your content.

[@octaviusshade7110]

@@KegstandOG i agree with u ! I've the same personality as petu, and it's really rare to see it on the internet, where most people prefer to insult each other instead of giving advice or compliment. So, big respect for him !

[@dirtydard4870]

Saying "satisfied by" has a very different connotation from saying "satisfied with"

[@shawninverted8551]

@@KegstandOG Right? I'll compliment the enemy laner for a slick outplay they pulled on me and instead of "thanks!" or anything they'll often go "uninstall, you're terrible". People are really out here malding even in victory and I don't get it.

Small correction, twitch e deals physical damage with base damage and ad scaling and additionaly deals magic damage without any base damage, only ap scaling, meaning ap twitch deals mainly magic damage with his e

[@r35ct12]

iirc they play on ap is to dump as many stacks as possible and then E cuz autos dont do much. Technically speaking, this playstyle is more burst oriented rather than consistent dps correct me if im wrong

[@Bsebt]

Don't forget his passive scales 3% to 18% AP depending on stacks and W slow scales on AP as well, and his passive damage is affected by riftmaker/haunting guise but I'm unsure however if it procs collector

[@Aguardiente]

@@r35ct12 Any time a champion builds AP, they're automatically more bursty than they would be otherwise, since it moves their damage from autos into abilities. AP Katarina, Twitch, Kaisa, Kayle, etc., are all more burst oriented compared to their AD builds

[@r35ct12]

Matchups are my favorite part of the game in League (unless I'm facing Urgot/Gragas where I just get bored to death), and what I think is my strongest aspect in the game. Learning in-depths matchup, mastering and practicing them is just what I love the most. Adrian and I used to even call to watch some CN/KR pro players POV and see how they'd play this or that matchup, honestly that's the most enjoyable part of league to me. Although I don't play either of those in your video, that was really enjoyable!

[@jacekm5798]

I enjoy playing 1v1 even in bad matchups but when JG and mid shows up it's miserable. Especially when your team takes nothing back at the same time

[@garbenthaatrox6065]

Petu u are so nice to watch. love how u explain EVERYTHING u possible can.

[@renneverbright]

Petu time! silly question here, would it not work to Q before E and accept the disempowering of the auto attacks in return for getting the energy refund and some damage? I assume that, well, several things could happen to make that either simply not worth or impractical to try, but it was the thing that immediately occurred to me and I am curious.

[@atsukki]

i was expecting that aswell tbh

[@ConFusi0n]

[@Vanhaomena]

18:33 AP twitch deals about a 33/33/33 mix of true/magic/physical in a usual game, because the AP scaling goes to the magic damage part of the E. E has a hybrid scaling in which the AD goes to the physical and AP goes to magical damage dealt by the same spell.

[@stefanvolker1970]

Hey Petu, one of your older Vids inspired me to take up shen jgl - so far I'm enjoying it a lot and enemy jgl usually completely underestimates shen dueling power. Mostly I play green jgl item into tiamat into titanic hydra into righter dead mans or force of nature. As keystone I use the one with attack speed for the first 3 autos for higher burst with q. Do you mind giving some feedback or suggestions? Ty in advance. And as always - absolutely enjoyable content ❤

Twitch E actually scales with AP to do magic damage and AD to do attack damage, so with AP Twitch, his E does do a lot of magic damage.

[@jacobgoldshmidt783]

Xpetu, I've made some passionate comments about changes needed for shen. I realize now that I have been building wrong and trying to get 6 q's off when I should prio more consistent 3 q trades/1 q grasp shield bash trades, my WR is back since I am exclusively looking for hallow and deadmans rush instead of bamis titanic rush. But man, I wish they'd revert q nerf from s13.

Twitch expunge is actually half magic and half physical damage, he also gets a fair bit of magic damage from nashors so magic resist isnt wasted against twitch, but the raw health is better imo

[@ui8087]

I’m curious as to why xPetu didn’t just adapt and go for non-empowered Q’s when he knows Yasuo has windwall up and only going for the drag through Q’s when windwall was on cd.

[@Voltaik494]

Greetings petu !

[@akahdrin]

Twitch E does physical based off AD and Magic based off AP.

[@lilytemel4036]

Im just asling this to get told why it wouldnt work cause i dont know enough about either champ. But wouldnt Q before E work to get the empowered but not fully empowered AA if you are playing against a yasuo who is consistently hitting those Windwalls into your E. Like yeah you dont get the full value of pulling the blade through your opponent but you at least get something.

[@xPetu]

yeah you are right, it's just so hard to stop muscle memory of going for emp q :D

[@magicfragrances]

This is how I am sure I am in low-elo (g1-p4), I rarely lose Shen vs Yasuo matchup, and I didn't even know that i lose AA Amp because of windwall, not a single Yasuo player in my elo is even trying to block my Q dragthru 😅

[@adryelalves4501]

Does the item(forgot name) reduces Evelynn's critical strikes too? Or like shadowflame crits?

[@squeekee5548]

super informative video

[@Skarsnikum]

The funny thing is : When a good yasuo use his windwall correctly, 100 random yasuo do the same thing just by pressing the button in panic

[@MaverickMyth]

Windwall blocking Shen Q I can understand, but I still don't get why it removes the Drowsy condition of Lillia's ultimate.

[@erric3375]

idk how shen works but what if delay q until after windwall and go for extended trade since yasuo has grasp?

[@RozaviRozi]

This is not only guide to how to play shen vs yasuo it is also how to play yasuo vs shen.

Petu: We have to watch out for E Q fl-(EYYYEEEEEE) 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@killer109536]

Does Braum E also stop Shen Q? I would.. assume so? If Shen's Q is the first thing that connects with his E of course, it specifically states it destroys the first projectile that collides with his shield.

[@xPetu]

Yes it does!

[@peterfalk7979]

Dude pls explain the 3rd level a bit further, how exactly is it helping the yasuo if he windwalls ur e? Is it just bc he can cancel the q you use after e or can he actually block ur e with his w?? I'm a bit confused now tbh :0

If the Yasuo is high IQ and constantly blocks Q after taunt, isn't it logical to Q before the taunt to get shield and semi-empowered attacks?

You said Pzzang is the best Yasuo but it actually is Courtesy in rank 1 with his accounts ouch, joji and courtesy

[@RuneKatashima]

So why not just taunt and hold Q? He can't windwall while taunted, so Q after. You'll get less damage than the optimal combo but you can't do the optimal combo so some damage is better than 0. If he windwalls, he just wasted it and you still have Q.
