I'm a bard main, I played Bard in one of your master games when you were Orianna adc. Bard is an incredibly OP champion, in order to beat any champion all you have to do is get their HP to reach 0 before yours does. It works every time.
Bard gets buffed and Pekin immediately puts out an hour and a half video of AP bard mid in like GM lobbies. Idk what thoughts are goin through his head but I need them to stay there.
Kindred: If we get Zed bounty ez win Pekin: Casually walks into jungle, finds Zed, and solo kills That is some next level "Your wish is my command," I love it
I mean, Bard R is also like a Lux laser, except the AoE is circular and it puts the enemies into stasis instead of doing dmg. But yeah, similar charge time and all.
The Kindred not only recognized the win con of getting the Zed shutdown, they didn't rage or even ping when the Bard that was behind got the big shutdown instead of one of the main carries.
Hey pekin, one thing you could try is statik shiv first item on bard mid. Even post nerf, its still great on bard cause statik plus meeps oneshots waves and you get more time to roam and collect chimes. Mid-late game plays a bit like the old rapidfire deadmans plate bard that was popular before mythics were introduced.
Hey pekin any chance you can post that game with lourlo in the second channel where the nunu kept taking all the shutdowns and y’all were laughing so much but it ended in a loss? That was soo good
Ngl the Zed game one was kinda crazy, he had perfect cs all game and did a really good job pressing side lanes. I hate the champ with a passion but he was cracked and I respect it.
FYI Bard Meep ratio is 30%, Lich Bane 50%, Nashors 20% means if you have all 3 you do 100% AP ratio on an auto attack... If you get a Night Harvester you can up that to 115% AP ratio on an auto attack. With Electrocute when you land Q + aa that auto attack will have 125% AP ratio (if you have N. Harvester its ratio would go off on the Q). Just something to think about.
Did Pekin get First Blood? Game 1: Nope First Blood was by ally Swain around the 2:47 mark. Game 2: Nope First Blood was by ally Yasuo around the 41:15 mark. Game 3: Nope First Blood was by ally Riven around the 1:09:36 mark. Pekin's First Bloods: 9 Allies' First Bloods: 21 Enemies' First Bloods: 32 Win streak: 0 Lose streak: 4 Highest win streak: 2 Highest lose streak: 13 Total games registered: 62
I'm so happy with the Bard love....I feel like he's a really underappreciated champ, with only a few people really playing him to his potential. I know it's a weird mid pick but I'd be pretty stoked to see it again some time. Hopefully the buffs stick. Great games, thanks
for bard i highly recommend shiv 1st item it helps u a lot to get prio which is huge. with ludens shiv and passive u have to aa a wave once and u r gone which enables you to collect more chimes which is harder for bard mid than supp
finally pekin of wolves uploaded another chime minister mid game. thank you pekpekpack leader, for i can rest easy now PS: try kraken on him, you can do 1 auto and then 8 more and the dmg is insane. but in all honesty its actually p good bc of the ap items kraken scales alongside them and your akt spd/ wave clear gets just that bit easier
last game: you were 1 1/2 levels ahead of taliah so you won lane. Every lane was ahead. Seems like you get the best teams when you play bard. Interesting. Good job.
1:09:35 - "We have not missed a single CS" *meanwhile, he missed 1 RIGHT BEFORE saying that (**1:09:11**) and missed 1 in the cannon wave (**1:08:12**)* However, see exhibit A where he just said "So we do have some chimes behind us that I want to collect. But if I leave the lane, I might miss a minion..". Earth to Pekin - you've missed 2.
You carried that first game by keeping your swain alive where everyone else failed! Would you consider playing Zilean mid? Idk how hard it'd be in that high elo, but i just can imagine the outplays!
Out of curiosity, why go rocketbelt instead of night harvester? While rocketbelt provides utility and mpen, I feel like the movement speed and extra damage on the FIRST auto, which is what makes AP bard so good, is the empowered autos male's the build really pop
Bard is real god damn nasty when I play him in aram, and with a bit of time to scale chimes, you turn into a monster. You can honestly disregard you ult a lot of times, or run Ultimate Hunter to be able to risk whiffing it. People respect Bard ult a little too much, and panic flash often so it works as a way to bait out abilities or summoners. Honestly, Swains not running PoM are actually just trolling.
Im posting this just because it sounds like you don't know, so if Im preaching to the choir here, ignore me but: Bard chimes actually give you XP and refund Mana upon collection. So that is why you had no mana issues on game 3. You really should be going for chimes more often because it helps you out of lane as well.
Can a bard main tell me: during that naut gank around 9:30, if he threw ult on himself as hook was midflight, would naut have dragged himself under tower with pekin in stasis?

never played bard before and honestly, i had no idea. thats such an OP strat, he might need heavy nerfs
would you agree that full ap bard has a higher win rate instead of on hit bard?
I don't understand, does it need to be 0 before or after mine gets to 0. If his is 0, can he get me to 0 too? I'm not good at math
@@Maxhoppel I play support, I wouldn't suggest taking Bard mid with either build.
Thats pretty big brain ngl imma try this with every champion
Last time I saw a bard this mid was my university dnd club
Ohmygod I hate it 😂😭
I love you
Bar(d)s
Ah he went to Bard College I see!

LET HIM COOK!!!
Kindred: If we get Zed bounty ez win

That is some next level "Your wish is my command," I love it
Down 2 items btw xd
8:00
1 Hp, 3 mana, no sums, and a dream.
Unfortunately, first strike damage did not have the same dream
Bard Q is kinda like Lux laser, except it does way less damage and stuns
I mean, Bard R is also like a Lux laser, except the AoE is circular and it puts the enemies into stasis instead of doing dmg. But yeah, similar charge time and all.
What a nail biter of a first game. Your team played that so well, what a well deserved win.
First game was absolutely insane, great team everyone kept their cool. Not even a surrender vote after being down 11k gold.
The Kindred not only recognized the win con of getting the Zed shutdown, they didn't rage or even ping when the Bard that was behind got the big shutdown instead of one of the main carries.

I saw someone asking about this in discord. Yes plz
I have no idea when the game was, must of been months ago. Might not even exist anymore
@@PekinWoofat least try search for it, please peecan🥺 its so fun watching you have fun!
if you do find it please post it, it was funny af@@PekinWoof
@@tsb2011 yea that was me 😅
Ngl the Zed game one was kinda crazy, he had perfect cs all game and did a really good job pressing side lanes. I hate the champ with a passion but he was cracked and I respect it.
That zed at the 26 minute mark was insane lol. And that 3 man baron disruption at 2830 was godly. That jax went out like a true king.
your ulti at 20:16 was amazing. stunning the udyr, but not the baron. surprised you guys didn’t get that
This was practically a Bard Mid Movie I love it pekinpekw

wow Pekin. Great video. Keep it up. You are the best League player. You def don't int sometimes.

When I saw 32:13, I knew they were going to win. The team fell back properly, and I liked it.

Wow game 1 was really intense. I love it
I didn’t know I needed this!!
1:13:43 the EminemWoof arc continues
1 hour video. LETS GOOO. I can never get enough pekin content. Thanks for blessing us
Hey, just when I was looking for a Pekin video, truly a blessing
That first game was nutz-n-da-butz
first or 2nd game: Not too good beginning, but oh that Aphelios kill at the end - pure smurfing goodness!
Great bard game, love that late game bard hits like a truck once you’ve got enough chimes 😂
unreal workmanship!
The "Escape" after TP around 1:16:00 was funny af
31:15 you get your ultimate back before you get your zhonyas back xD
Out of curiosity, why go rocketbelt instead of night harvester? While rocketbelt provides utility and mpen, I feel like the movement speed and extra damage on the FIRST auto, which is what makes AP bard so good, is the empowered autos male's the build really pop
I like Magic Pen for big damage (Night harvester gives none)
An hour and a half of Pekin 😋
Have a beautiful day Pekin
Love the movie length video
that zed kill was a clencher!

thank you for playing Bard mid Pekin!
that zed is obsessed with you lol
The magical adventures of Bartholomew of Wolves.
the first gme was a good movie
8:20 hate this sm too LOL
crazy that this game was with alicopter at support lol
That first game was awesome. No flaming, just everybody trying to make plays and come back
I also love the Kindred at the beginning just asking about bard and trying to plan around pekin's pick
What an incredible first game
3 games??????????? Pekin is feeling generous today
55:24 Bready to go 🥖🍞🥯
Go atomic Bard, Luden's, Shiv, RFC, Stormrazor, Lichbane and sorc boots with dark harvest. Definitely the most fun I've had playing Bard

UR TEAM IS HAVING A CONVERSATION IN PINGS LMFAOO
Bard gameplay is such a vibe
cs'ing seems surprisingly manageable with bard. fun pick!
There are no bad plays, only bard plays
A good build to terrorize the rift with is hail of blades, shiv - nash - harvester - dcap, then a void staff or zhonya, certified bomber build
17:09 - Ult. The. Tower.
i know!
12:31 how did your kindred do damage to you on the death recap?
that nautlius q at 12:10 broken af
over a hour of bard?????? incredible
"FIRST TIMING A CHAMP IN A GAME?? GG WE LOSE" *doesn't even buy a fucking item at game start*. These kids holy shit man I just can't
1:04:42 yeah that orianna ult was good but that redemption was 😩 🤌
that game was intense!
Bard mid?? I'm so here for it
nice firstgame :D
I felt like Leonard in memento as I watched this video lol. Why order the matches this way Pekorino.
Yo wait... that first game you had AliKing on your team I'm pretty sure. 'I Am Rank One'.
Alicopter is such a beast.
Try shiv. Even after all the nerfs it feels amazing on a hybrid bard build (shiv, rageblade, nashors, with HOB)
As man who try crazy shit, i admire u
That Swain is Fishlord one of the best Swain OTP in the world and top in NA
Haven't watched yet, already worried Pekin is going to just leave chimes everywhere.
Early in the first game is pretty rough, but he does well enough later on
Pekin went hard this one
Was tough watching him eat every skill shot in laning phase.
This was nuts
I thought you did a good job playing bard mid in challenger elo and greandmaster.
Good Pekin
Alicopter in this game lol
Yayyy new video
You always Q then auto, but your auto slows so it makes more sense to do it the other way around.
Can a bard main tell me: during that naut gank around 9:30, if he threw ult on himself as hook was midflight, would naut have dragged himself under tower with pekin in stasis?
Wait... does pekin plan to stop these off meta picks after he reaches a certain rank?
Great vid
Bard is such an omega chad champ
the problem with how you play bard is you dont utilize e enough, its a traver move,use it to travel more
pog as heck
Bard is very similar to aphelios, except all of his abilities are completely different and theres norhing at all similar
🔥
Good shit
Long form content LFG!
I hate how kindred pinged swain after baron because it only was possible because u stunned them perma in his ult 😭😭
Epic game 1
It just blows my mind this guy can bard mid but not azir
