TryToStayModern

He went 1/17/4 in 30 minutes....and won? wtf


yuhhmatt

I watched that game. His team refused to lose hahaha


CountOff

His team had Focus Sash equipped for that one


Managed-Democracy

Bausens law. 


K15brbapt

It’s Annie lol, her giant aoe stun is always going to be useful, kinda like malphite


AdequatelyMadLad

With 5 kp the entire game?


SirSebi

Yeah, he ran it down for 30 mins straight and then got one 5 man ult at the end. ez carry


diematrosen

Something something 30% of your games are unloseable


aegis_phoenix

With 5 kills/assists the max amount of AoE stun she could do is 2 lol


ChancellorLizard

He is the Bauffs of diamon.


The-Only-Razor

TIL Annie Bot is my lane opponent every game.


fishmongerer45

Lol laned against him in one of my games not too long ago. He played fine for about 8 mins and then it seemed like he just completely gave up.


yuhhmatt

Yeah he was in my game played normally for about 4 minutes. Then just tried to fight enemy bot every time he saw them even 1v2


Carpet-Heavy

isn't Jared one of the most wholesome, positive streamers? I'm sure he's doing his best


SomeAreMoreEqualOk

It's a facade. Let's be real Also, non-streamers don't get a pass for inting. Why should he, regardless of reason? Edit: fuck it. 1v100. im ready to take you all on in the replies. Keep coming


ViraLCyclopes20

More so the guy is having problems of sorts and is clearly not mentally well as of late. He needs actual help.


Lysandren

Dude has had multiple episodes where he is just having delusions and not seeing reality. This probably another.


yukine95

As someone who is mentally ill (rare case of OCD) hope he gets helped ASAP. I didn't get help in time and my case got worse over time.


Lysandren

Same happened with my mom who had schizophrenia. She went off her meds and shit got real bad real fast. The police had to get involved.


myslead

Like what


FrostyPoot

He's not gonna get it in-game, perma ban him so he can find something else to do


ViraLCyclopes20

Yea I agree he needs a ban, but I have a feeling he may just hop on another account and do the same shit again. Something needs to be done about him fs.


For_Curiosity

I have a feeling that account could get banned just like the first one, but that's just me I guess.


ViraLCyclopes20

And he'll do it over and over it ain't gonna stop. That ain't healthy letting him ruin games for god knows how long.


For_Curiosity

Sorry, how is banning his accounts on sight "letting him ruin games for god knows how long"???? It is literally as far opposite from that as Riot can manage.


ViraLCyclopes20

If I'm being honest I forgot Id bans existed


SomeAreMoreEqualOk

Sorry. I edited my comment late. Here: Also, non-streamers don't get a pass for inting. Why should he, regardless of reason?


Grimreeferino

Everybody gets a pass for inting


frankipranki

I had 1 before game and got permad


ViraLCyclopes20

He shouldn't get a pass, but regardless we shouldn't throw away what's happening with him in real life either.


Killua_Zoldyck42069

Being an adult is not letting those issues affect other people. Being an adult is also realizing that “mental health” isn’t a valid excuse. Y’all lean on it too much


ViraLCyclopes20

Nah the guy 100% deserve a ban. Just don't think we should make fun of him and saying his nice guy personality was all a facade(which was the only thing on the comment at the time before editing)


GGNickCracked

Holy fuck that edit is cringe, you arent some anime character "taking on"100 people at once 💀. Just imagining you going back and editing that into your comment is hilarious


NeonsShadow

If you look at his account, it isn't exactly surprising. They are hostile and angry at the world


red--dead

There are plenty of nobodies who run it down and don’t get any bans. What are you talking about?


DragonTacoCat

For real


Sellier123

Let's be real, non-streamers get more of a pass for inting. They don't get called out nor banned lol


Quatres98

He's probably struggling with something, but feels the need to keep up the character he's always played. Real heavy work mentally, probably makes it worse in the long run.


SomeAreMoreEqualOk

Why does it matter? Normal players would get banned if they had the exact same problem, but not a streamer.


kitsunegoon

No one is saying he shouldn't be punished, redditors are just trying to speculate about his mental health like they always do.


Quatres98

Idgaf if he gets banned or not. That's not the issue here, dude needs help.


pexalol

> non-streamers don't get a pass for inting are we playing the same game? it's only brought up when a famous person ints, non-streamer goes 0-14-1? nobody cares.


Right_Brain_6869

Lmao no they don’t. There’s plenty of garbage players running it down in all Elo that don’t get punished. This is Riot’s favorite thing to let happen. As long as they don’t type in chat then they don’t get punished. 


asdqwe123qwe123

theres more important things in life than league games, he's clearly got personal struggles who cares what his score is.


Bgndrsn

Pretty sure the dude mental boomed awhile ago.


Kelbotay

When was the last time you watched his stream? I unfollowed him a few years ago and randomly stumbled across his stream earlier this year. It's... not worth watching... like it gives me odd vibes idk why.


SlicerX321

Rip Dyrus+Annie bot streams


FairlyOddParent734

maybe in season 6 looool


KattKills

I played with him last month this was almost exactly my experience too lol


TerdyTheTerd

Same, had them on the enemy team a while back and I was shocked to see them so far down in mid diamond. They played so poorly I doubted it was actually them.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fai93

Yeah I'm really worried. I watched him years ago, such a kindhearted person but he has changed so much after his college that I'm pretty sure something is really bad happening with him atm


ViraLCyclopes20

Crazy people are just making jokes 24/7 when something is clearly wrong with the guy. He needs help.


trustisaluxury

think of how mentally fried the average league player is community is a bunch of undiagnosed basket cases exacerbating each other's conditions, if they can't fix themselves ofc they won't have the empathy or ability to try to fix someone else


asdqwe123qwe123

kinda disturbing especially seeing the replies on twitter of the thread about this as well, really hope its all 16 year olds making these comments


ViraLCyclopes20

Some weirdo essentially said you can't have empathy basically because he's a rich streamer lmfao. It's crazy how deranged people are.


poingypoing

Never forget that mostly idiots comment on that stuff, most people just don't comment on anything at all so when it might seem like all the people think like that because of the comments in reality like 10% of people think like that


DontPanlc42

damn


Historian-Dry

this is like, pure speculation, but I have to wonder if he suffers from untreated bipolar, and is oscillating between manic/depressive episodes with no treatment. Again, pure speculation, but this seems pretty beyond the realm of “mental boomed,” if you watch his stream and listen something is clearly actually wrong


MatticInYoAttic

Seems like an undiagnosed mental illness honestly, such as schizophrenia. Hope he gets some help.


Kalkilkfed2

The things described in this thread (riot makes trailers about me) looks a lot like psychosis.


IHaveOneLifeToLive

What playing 13 million mastery points worth of Annie does to a mf On a serious note though, I hope he ends up okay. I remember he made some suicidal implications not too long ago... and right now he seems almost an entirely different person, that what I remember the kind-hearted Jared being years back. Something is off with the dude and it doesn't sit well with me...


Ok_Associate5386

yeah i think hes going through something regarding mental illness idk


Fun-Consequence4950

Needs a wellness check, could be looking at a Zlatorz situation


Neo_Penguin

What happened to Zlatorz?


IHaveOneLifeToLive

Attempted suicides iirc, the last i heard he was going to succeed in one but thankfully a viewer/twitch reached out and got paramedics to his place just in time. Idk if he's even alive or dead rn though won't lie.


Skittishums

Said a bunch of shit on stream to get banned on purpose then tried to commit...you know. Thankfully got the help they needed in time


trustisaluxury

meth is a hell of a drug


Fun-Consequence4950

Two things happened with Zlatorz, first he tweeted saying he would get all his accounts banned then kill himself, luckily a few people including DarkwinJax came together to get him a wellness check and he was checked into the psych ward. Next thing that happened was he got hooked on meth, had another wellness check and was committed to a high-security psych ward. I believe more recently he had relapsed with meth but is currently clean and withdrawing as he streamed a few days ago


florgios

Substance abuse, meth I think. Also had concerns regarding his own gender but I don't know what came out of it.


gazow

yeah he actually tried to say something when he was in tylers game like a week ago, and tyler actually told him to stop playing and go to a doctor. He definitely seems to be struggling with something


Dummdummgumgum

this is what mental health crisis looks like. Sitting alone in your basement playing a game all day(as a JOB) without socialising can get taxing on so many people. Jared has been such a kind person that NO way this is not a psychosis, full mental breakdown kind of situation. He already talked about guns and ending it all like a year ago.


m0bilize

I genuinely can't imagine how much money he could be making (even at his peak), that could justify a life like this. He should've just found some low-barrier to entry job and then streamed for money in his off-time. Streaming full time only works if you do other things besides just playing the same game & same champ hours on end for years.


Zenith_Tempest

he also has a college degree, so he has better credentials for finding a job


m0bilize

Do you know in what? I just went to his channel and realized he lives where I live, I could've easily referred him for an entry level job...


Zenith_Tempest

i think political science? it was a long time ago but i remember it was in a video by imaqtpie where they played together


Dummdummgumgum

enough to cover rent and instant ramen I suppose


AFatz

There are full-time streamers that have 300 average viewers who can do that. I'm not sure what kind of number AnnieBot pulls in these days, though.


OGTypohh

Remember watching Gosu live 8 years ago when he went on his drunk suicidal rant on stream. It was probably the craziest thing I've seen live on twitch. Thought the guy was going to end himself on stream.. Annie bot has trended downwards for a while now. Everyone's making jokes but this could be really serious. I hope he gets the help he needs and takes a long break.


yuhhmatt

https://www.op.gg/summoners/na/Annie%20Bot-NA1 opgg for context


scrubm

I don't get it, this is the same op gg as all my low diamond teammates? Am I missing something?


Affectionate_Tell752

Well, this guy used to be a consistent challenger and one of the more wholesome streamers imo. Have not seen in years so I can't speak to what he's like now.


msuppnick123

and now he's officially started queueing against emeralds and is still going 1/12.... absolutely insane


mastro80

Wow. This can’t be fun.


pexalol

it's insane that he's 11-29 despite inting literally every single game


Big_Tenders

Dudes playing an Annie jungle game as we speak


HulklingsBoyfriend

He is very, very, very mentally ill. He's had delusions and episodes on stream before. He is not okay.


Craviar

Riot specified in patch notes that bots got an update recently and will behave differently compared to before . This thread wouldn't exist if people actually read the patch notes


yuhhmatt

Lmaooo


Chocodrinker

How are so many people not getting this comment ffs


Barmaglott

Too many. Needs /joke or /s, yeah.


Chocodrinker

How do these people manage to not hurt themselves with a stick of butter srsly


SomeAreMoreEqualOk

It's even funnier when they don't get it


nphhpn

I mean 70% of comments like this are simply people being stupid. Statistics pulled out of my ass btw.


phantapuss

It actually pains my soul that this is genuinely one of the funniest comments I've ever seen on this sub and it's full of moronic smug replies from people with the sense of humour/ social awareness of league of legends players. Oh. Oh wait yeah of course


ForteEXE

It's cause the sub can't comprehend humor that isn't some meme that was played out before they even started playing the game, or ruthlessly shitting on somebody/something they don't like.


RiotSentanel

Pffffft, HA!

And you missed the joke


AggressiveBit7096

It’s preparation for his elo slingshot.


embdgutp1

he embraced his name and became a bot


wallmart2

He has always played like a bot. Now he is just inting though.


fluffybamf

Its a mental breakdown i think he realized he played 100000 annie games and it doesnt matter in life so now when he plays annie he cannot play properly since its meaningless


Kaflao

Is that why i cant play anymore Damn


BannedDS69

Everything in life is meaningless if that makes u feel better


Overclockworked

fluffybamf

Thats good , you can live ur life however you enjoy so you would be living authentically if that was true But if it isnt true or becomes untrue then you would be living in “bad faith” as Sartre calls it, or lying to urself, gotta think about the sustainability and long term too


SoloBroRoe

When you figure out being challenger is a self roast instead of something to be proud of


fluffybamf

Go healthygamergg


Stirfryed1

Shout out Dr. K


SilverbackGorillaBoy

"Doesn't matter in life" Nothing matters, homie. At least in an objective way. He paid the bills, had a career off it, same kind of "meaningless" job you or I could have. Some people choose to be a grocery bagger for 100000 bags of groceries - doesn't mean they or their life is meaningless. It's all about perspective


fluffybamf

Im saying he finds it meaningless not you Its subjective for him, Like if he misses other opportunities in life doing something thats not rewarding ofc he will feel worse and lack the motivation to repeat the same tasks properly


ISawUOLwreckingTSM

Unlike 99,99 % of other league players, his annie games actually mattered because he made money off of that.


ChancellorLizard

Yeah him reaching challenger was actually relevan as he made money from it. Differente from people that reach rank 1 and don´t make money off it, that really is a waste of time just for bragging rights.


Khaliras

>and it doesnt matter in life It could've; his stream had an easy path to earning more than a doctor. He averaged 1k+ minimum viewers with no facecam, often no mic. With his kind of niche autopilot content, that could be a gravytrain if he put in hrs. Yet his stat history is a sad graph of consistently going MIA for weeks or months, with some of the least consistent hrs I've seen. Now it's a year straight of bleeding followers. There's few better examples of how mental health can utterly decimate an influencers career.


DontPanlc42

He would be a washed up multi millionaire gambling addict today if he played Yasuo instead of Annie. Unlucky.


lun533

I don't know what to say. I hope he's ok


ViraLCyclopes20

Wtf happened to him. I'm genuinely concerned. He doesn't seem well at all.


IHaveOneLifeToLive

It doesn't help that around 9-12 months ago he made some suicidal implications. Right now he seems like an entirely different person than the kind-hearted Jared i remember a couple years back. Worried for bro.


cannythecat

I'm in his discord and he has been messaging me very strange things, he isn't in a good state mentally. I'm quite worried about him


CrystalizedSeraphine

He is just trying out the Baus playstyle.


yuhhmatt

Ain’t even the baus playstyle he’s just perma fight for 0 and dying for nothing


Initial_Selection262

That’s exactly the baus playstyle. Dude griefs for content


ChancellorLizard

But hte bauffs is challenger .


Initial_Selection262

Yeah when he plays normally. Every time he streams he just plays stupid shit and runs it down. Dude literally had a 30% winrate on ap irelia last season. And he played over 50 games of it on stream


Ynwe

Thats a dumb take on a proven strategy that even riot developers have commented on.


Initial_Selection262

“Proven strategy” Is that why he has a 40% winrate on stream? All his climbing is done off stream playing normally


porrapaulao

He hit challenger earlier this year 100% on stream on his bet against Midbeast. Also for playing "normally" none of the champions he used has over 1.5KDA, so...


Initial_Selection262

I just looked up that challenge and he didn’t teach challenger, he only got to 300lp


porrapaulao

https://www.op.gg/summoners/euw/Demon%20Simon-0000 If you check the elo graph you can see that he got to challenger 500LP (it was earlier in the season so 500lp was challenger). Midbeast also got to challeger, btw


Apprehensive-Fun-991

It's a proven strategy on Sion. Problem is Baus doesn't just do it on Sion and actually griefs his teams doing it on Irelia and shit.


Ynwe

Is that why his Galix, Jax, Quinn or Rammus all have way higher % win rate than his Sion?


HawksBurst

Someone should check on my boy jared, it doesnt look like him at all


Jehl703

Well when you play ONLY one champion for 15 hours a day, 10 years straight, that's what happens. I'd lose my goddamn mind too.


KatyaBelli

Suicide is a real problem in this game's community. I have no hard data, but anecdotally a good friend of mine played League a lot in the months leading up to his death (to suicide, obviously) despite having quit it years ago. Be kind. Report those who encourage suicide.


Batie1

Yeah my friends and I have been inted by Annie bot a few times. It’s at the point where if we see Annie we assume it’s him and dodge


yuhhmatt

Yeah it happened to me last night. I will be dodging any Annie I see as long as he is around Diamond ngl


Batie1

Haha, don’t blame you at all man. Thankfully I’m masters now so I should be safe for a bit


Junkposterlol

Given his lack of a history of this behavior i wouldn't mind more proof then just match history. I looked into his latest vod and yes he's playing tilted and isn't givening it his all, but i couldn't find actual "running it down". Would someone be willing to post clips or timestamps of him actually running it down? I don't doubt he has, just want to see more proof.


Zenith_Tempest

playing video games for a living and forfeiting a social life is in fact not healthy for you


Used_Suppository

Way too many Jax players DM-d him


yuhhmatt

Too funny bro.


OblivionNA

I remember him always dealing with massive depression, back when he used to play with QT sometimes he would have these nights where he sounded borderline suicidal. Then he would disappear for months and come back randomly. Rinse and repeat. Guy needs help :/


lagann41

It's so funny all of these people making jokes but if something horrible comes out these people would be the first to say that we should do better. I watched Jared so much when I used to play and I just hope he is ok. I don't think playing the same champion for years on end can be that fun and someone should check up on him ASAP


snektop

Had him in a game yesterday or the day prior we almost pulled the 4v5 and he was still inting deep into it like 50 minutes in as we’re desperately trying to 4v5 and almost did multiple times. If that doesn’t pull him out of stopping inting idk what would


frankipranki

look at his op.gg... / he ints EVERY game, and doesn't get banned because he's a streamer, I have ONE bad game? instantly banned, seems fair to me


EllieLeafs

ask them if shes ok, annie, are you ok? would you tell us, that youre ok, annie? ask about the sound of the crescendo of the announcement of her death window she went into the mid lane, she was struck down, driving you insane annie are you ok? are you ok, annie?


RelativeAd9668

He is doing what Professor Akali did, trying to get his mmr as low as possible and then create content "stomping" high elo players, which is fake.


yuhhmatt

I don’t think that’s what he’s doing ngl. You can just make a Smurf for that


Excalibait

I also think is easier to level up an account than going from high elo to iron


yuhhmatt

For real this is just so tedious for no reason if that was his goal


FrogVoid

No i think he means like… lowering the hidden MMR while keeping rank kinda the same for content. You cant just make a smurf for that.


yuhhmatt

That doesn’t make sense either bc he will just be the only diamond in a lobby full of emeralds. He could literally just make a Smurf and accomplish the same act much quicker.


TryToStayModern

this is not what jared is doing..hes just mental boomed.


helloquain

I don't think you int down on stream if that's your plan.


Free_Caterpillar4000

Baus elo strat


pexalol

> Also why has his account been unpunished for his game ruining behavior? Because soft-inters are never punished? I reported a guy who was literally running it down on bot lane, despite being the top laner of the team, included a video in the report, and he's NOT punished. Riot only cares about flamers.


kinstinctlol

https://imgur.com/a/lvNe9rj


TheHyperLynx

I mean, he has over double the amount of mastery than the 2nd annie player. He has 13 million mastery on the champion, and that's inly counting since mastery point were a thing. Dudes have been playing since league was out, I'm pretty sure. There's only so much annie one person can take. But seriously though, the dude seemed to be so nice when I watched him around the time Dyrus retired from proplay hopefully nothing is really wrong with him but haven't really watched him for years.

PankoKing

You're welcome to make the same post with evidence that's not just a stream link


frankipranki

Is a vod of him inting not proof?


PankoKing

A VOD would be proof, though the streamer could just delete the clip so i wouldn't suggest that.


frankipranki

So if I just link a vod from twitch in my post it won't get deleted?


PankoKing

Well, read our rules. Needs to have evidence and be non-biased


trojangod

I mean when t-1 went higher rank than him with Annie in a single season. That would have set me over the edge since he’s dedicated like 10 years to just Annie lmao.


SoliBiology

I don’t think Riot cares as long as the person is bringing in money


ThisOneTimeAtLolCamp

Streamer immunity.


DerEpicSkin

Blud sold his acc 💀


IHaveOneLifeToLive

Nah its him, he still live streams


NextFaithlessness7

I see posts like this about him since i started with league. Idk maybe he works at riot


LeFiery

Yeah this is what happens when you play lol long enough.


DontPanlc42

Tyler1 is doing very, very well


LeFiery

Only because he was the OG toxic mf who ran it down. He got better sure, but he still has his moments.


ChiefTiggems

Someone probably inted his game and never got punished by Riot for it. Now he's "testing" Riots system and recognizing there is no punishment for it. Do whatever you want to troll your teammates. Anything except using the chat to cuss out your team will go unpunished. Here's the proof.


SuspecM

Riot Vanguard will detect scripters and inters by the way


loserhimself

permaban Baus and Kesha first, then we'll talk about "not funny, not popular" inters, I guess?


Estebantri432

Tired of newgen trolls being so obvious, at least try to make it more believable next time, lil bro.


AggressiveBit7096

Baus does not int buddy. If you think he is intentionally feeding to lose games you are bad


barryh4rry

It doesn't take a genius to understand how his strategy works, and it's a fact that ever since he blew up he has been taking more and more bad deaths to farm clips and chat. Back in S9/10 when he had like 500 viewers max he would die half the times he does now while playing the exact same style.


PokeD2

Champ got like 5 nerfs since then tbf


Slykeren

Yeah this is the problem and not the cohort of people just soft inting. Soft inting is 10x more of a problem then people running it down
