a small suggestion for those Q&A vids. I thinks its good to add timestamps with the topics or the questions. 1h might be too long for ppl but there might be topics they are interested in. That makes the video more appealing for them i think. Love to get insights into a more professional org. I always followed Noway's competitive projects like NNO or even before at ESG, but as most ppl know, it wasnt a lot scrimming or coaching. U just got the player pov at games from streaming and sometimes scrims. But seeing what a coach does and what else comes with it like the small presentations and drafting etc is pretty interesting. I think u gotta differentiate the patch a lot between soloq and pro play. For soloq i can relate to the players who say "this isnt enough changes" but obviously a new objective for proplay will have a huge impact. I also cant wait to see how much priority it will have and how much it changes depending on which one it is. For me it feels like u have to contest the GA one. Its like a better elder dragon. Like u want to teamfight with both, but with the GA one u cant f*ck up. So there is literally no risk in fighting. But im pretty sure it will get nerfed fast.
Thanks for the feedback! I might do it in future Q&A videos, but the downside is just the time it takes to do it. I don't have an editor or anything so with this I just record and stream and upload the full video, without editing it or anything. So to get the timestamps it would require an extra hour or so just for the timestamps, and I'm not sure I have that extra hour basically... I think either are going to be super high contested in pro, at least from what we've seen and from what I hear from LEC scrims. GA one is more likely on stage though (unless the trigger is flexible) and I think even stronger than the other. Especially if you can hold it a few minutes and play with it and baron up.
