A Twitch streamer in League of Legends can control two LoL champs alone. The trick is: He plays the supporter Yuumi among other things with his feet, as Yuumi can attach herself to the ADC in LoL. The little Twitch streamer has indeed found some success over the holidays.
Who does that? The Canadian Tony “Saskio” Chau is a gamer who plays in the US “College LoL Championship”.
Until 2017, he was the top laner for Maryville University and won a championship title there. In the meantime, he has changed universities and positions: He plays for Winthrop University on the bot lane.
Saskio operates a small streaming channel on Twitch with 1443 followers. As reported by Inven , he dreams of becoming a LoL pro one day.
Twitch streamer uses clever setup to control 2 champs
Here’s the joke: Saskio has found a way to occupy the bot lane in duo with himself. He controls two accounts and thus two champions simultaneously. On Twitter, he showed how he set up his equipment to achieve this:
- With mouse and keyboard, he normally controls his ADC carry
- With his hands, he additionally operates a “Stream Deck” to control the support’s abilities and buy items for the support account
- With his feet, he can also use Yuumi’s heal on the E key and control Yuumi
This is how it goes: Saskio took advantage of the quiet time during the holidays on Twitch to present his idea and it was well received. A first stream on Twitch on December 26 had record numbers for his standards. Instead of the usual 5 viewers, a peak of 434 suddenly watched. (via sullygnome)
Saskio now plans to publish his adventures using this dual account on YouTube and rank up from “Unranked to Diamond”.
This style of play is possible due to a special feature of the support champion Yuumi, as the champ can attach herself to an ADC, making her untouchable and following them everywhere.
In the last season, the combo of Yuumi and Garen on the bot lane was indeed a preferred pick for some European professional teams. However, Saskio seems to prefer classic ADCs like the new LoL champ Aphelios when he is his own duo partner.
