Imaqtpie was once the biggest League of Legends content creator on UA-cam and Twitch, pioneering the "stream highlights" format to rapidly grow his fanbase in the span of only 2 years. Recognized for his incredible skill level and goofy personality, Imaqtpie was a fan favorite in the LoL community. But after a series of personal setbacks and growing frustrated with the game, Imaqtpie would vanish off UA-cam for over a year - abandoning the game that gave him his stardom. Welcome to LoLAthlete, this is What Happened to Imaqtpie.
Thank you for watching LoLAthlete :)

Dude that game is pure trash, stop promoting that garbage
no thanks
Can you do brofreso old school noob league player haha
Making ad 4 the worst Game. Fcking fggt
Is it a good game? Answer honestly pls
Saving you 11 minutes of video: He got bored of league
I thought he got old got deranked divorced and lost everything
@@alexderek5233he ultra invested into Tesla when it was basically an unknown company. He definitely didn’t “lose it all”
Respect for quitting
What happened to Imaqtpie? ...Nothing. He still streams almost daily. Just not League, and doesn't do UA-cam uploads.
Ty
I dont miss imqtpie playing league
I miss imqtpie enjoying games with the amazing edited videos.
True. For a long time I couldnt understand how this ritard is at the top of twitch, however after I watched one of his youtube vids I understood.
That editor made him mad money.
2nd sequence was the got editor
imaqtpie videos was different tho. i realy liked it even i couldnt understand anything
I'm saying! The editing was so good!
@@miguellillo1617 +1 man, he made those vids so entertaining I never saw anything close to his edits ever
in highschool (2017), all my friends that played league was so hyped when imaqtpie posted a yt video, it was either him trolling on trundle, getting pentas while playing adc or him flaming IWD for just living LOL, great times
i wish my friend sin school were into league like that..i was always alone playing or watching league videos and streams
@@azrrrrrrrr I'm glad none of my friends played this dogshit game. I wish I never installed and dragged one of my friends into it, 3 years wasted
@kardaneg112 unfortunately i agree 90% of playing league is waste of time but you cant deny those 10% of having fun will always stay as bright memories
@@kardaneg112dude it’s a video game, if you played for 3 years then I’d say you definitely were gaining something from it or else you’re just clinically insane.
@@tt-tk9076well yeah. Same as getting memories or happy moments from playing irl, from hobbies, watching some movies or reading the books. Same stuff
Dude! Finding out about League and playing it with friends back in high school was part of so many fun memories. I vividly remember vids from qt's channel being uploaded early in the mornings so before school i'd watch them and eat breakfast, qt is and has always been so chill.
qt is such a legend man, good for him
The story surrounding Lisha and their divorce is pretty odd as well. Apparently Qt was financially supporting her entire family during much of their relationship, and when he got that new house, some of them were even living with them, which I'm sure added a fuck load of stress.
And she actually divorced him after a miscarriage.
@@Vittrich where the hell do you guys get this information from?
@@jamesbaxter5416 i was a huge QTPie Fan back in the days and when all the divorce drama happened, he had a drunk stream where he ranted about multiple things, including Lisha, a miscarriege and the divorce but it seems like everything "spicy" got deleted over the years.
She used him. Flat out.
@@Vittrich and now she is an onlyfans girl
He got me through univerity depression back in the days
Bro still streams he had like 4-5 k viewers yestrday LOL
I don't really watch streamers but used to watch clips of him and IWD back in the day and he really is very likeable, tons of charisma with a funny, carefree attitude.
@@CamdenVSRGwhere can i wantch
same.
I'm happy for qt. I will always support him as long as he doesnt hurt anyone. He deserves the world
Really? I'd pay double what you pay if he hurt some people. Existence is Pain, Jerry!
He hurt me by ghosting himself. DO YOU STILL SUPPORT HIM
@@vh2802 He still streamed daily, just didn't post to yt
@@vh2802 You can still watch him stream. If anything you're ghosting him.
That's a bit intolerant. What if he wants to break some legs?
Qt never vanished, always have a place in my ♥️
He helped me alot during depression with laughs🙏
So many epic moments: the 90 min game, the all surrender game with dyrus & anniebot, one vs one with Gosu, the feeding troll dotot, 0/10 xerath vs faker, banner of command troll game and so many more. Still watch some of his old videos nostalgia
Thank you QT, wish you all the best in life🙏
All those names you mentioned just gave me whiplash. I haven’t thought about a lot of these old league streamers in years.. time flies 😭
I remember the good old days of him duo with Dom, Dyrus, Shiphtur, and Annie Bot. I religiously watched them and thought Qtpie was so funny I hope he's doing well and enjoying playing with friends.
Crazy I used to play with him in customs with Shiphtur and Annie Bot sometimes. I can say I solo killed him a few times (although that was ages ago and he was already insane)
same man. even nowadays i just turn on one of his 2015-2018 highlights playlists to watch before sleep. its just prime content
those were the days man. so funny
And VoyBoy, bringing some positivity in league with his cold tech. Before he got madly depressed. I mean I'm sure he was depressed during, but he seems way more depressed now.
I watched him sooooooooooooo much in the past.
offtopic: It's a shame now one talks about theoddone anymore either. People seem to forget but our former TSM jungler was a twitch-king for a long time. I remember his stream even going up to 20-25k when not playing League. The guy was legit funny/dry hunor
True that. I used to watch his UA-cam guides all the time when I was learning jungle. Loved that guy.
Theoddone still streams on twitch with an acutally big viewer count to 1-5k per stream so hes doing good and deserves it hes a good man and always enjoyed his content
Same with the Rain Man, PhantomL0rd (yes he turned out bad but you can’t deny he was funny), Trick2G at his peak popularity etc. S3-S5 was easily the best time for streamers
@@byyykramermusic Feels like those years were special for some reason, lots of people say the same thing about csgo how its best era was the 2014-2017 period and same for EDM golden days 2012-2016
oddone still streams daily, his jrpg streams are great
I used to play GW1 with this dude for years. I'll never forget stumbling upon a video on youtube and hearing his voice, a voice I heard ever yday in vent for a lot of my teenage years. Hope he's doing well.
that game was fun
best game ever and still playing
how can i play again?@@paulmidd5523
Hi man, I like your content but frankly speaking was expecting a little bit more from this one. You didn't mention his editor for example and how he contributed. Anyway thanks for series, I like them, bring back good memories! Thanks.
You should make a video
I understand how you feel. Heres the thing, channel like this one makes their money and views based on an algo that is meant to drive "interactions." When the league scene was just starting and quite frankly we all watched league based on pure love of the game and its players. Now days its these troll, reaction, and commentary channels that gets all the views. not the actual streamers themselves. Worst part about all this is that nothing about how QT getting older and being happy with what he has accomplished is mentioned. Its a series of focus on drama, failure, and lost of interest in the game. Who doesn't lose interest in a game that is 14 years old and you are aging right along with it?
Nothing happened to him. If I remember correctly he was never really obsessed with League. He was a variety gamer to begin with. Once Twitch gave him a fixed income contract he started to play less League and that's about it. Why would he force himself to be miserable when Twitch was paying him fat paychecks no matter what? Believe it or not, but playing the same game all day every day, every week, every month, every year, is simply insane.
Exactly! Hes literally live right now I just checked lol
Yeah, this video is out of touch at best, blatant misleading clickbait at worst. Hell, he played TFT yesterday, which is not exactly league, but yah know.
thanks for that comment. i was wondering why I clicked on a 10 min video about something like that.
unfortunately we all clicked the same bait video to mention it was bait. Dude made good money streaming, invested in Tesla at a good time and is now an actual millionaire (Scarra mentions this in a video with doublelift) Why would he keep playing league when he's rich as hell and just wants to run apex with the squad?@@tygonmaster
@@James-mz7sf Idk. Some people just "like" it. Still, yeah, point is he still streams. Quite a lot.
I think many of these old time streamers/LoL players fell victim to changing times and an aging audience. I remember watching streams and LoL content way back in the day and it was just a great time in general since LoL was so huge.
I would say post 2016-2018 onward is when many folk from the original audiences started to move on with their lives, finish school, start university, start work etc. LoL streams/content was so over saturated by that point that it was hard for many of these content creators to "stick around" as to say. The younger/newer audience wasn't drawn to the content/content creators in the same way we all were back in the day, more so being drawn to more modernized content that we are all familiar with.
amen to that
Not really, more like riot pushed for streamers like T1, that inevitably shaped the community around those type of entertainment, while folk like dyrus, scarra and iwd could not hang with it.
That is also a good point.@@MrPronGogh93
They simply got replaced by a newer generation of league streamers. Being in the LCS used to mean something back in the day, these guys had prestige in the League community. Playing in tournaments, hitting rank 10 in the past and just being known as an ex pro-player isn't considered special anymore on Twitch and UA-cam. Everyone is disillusioned especially by LSC and LEC players.
If you want to make it in the Twitch scene, you have to be really good at league and entertaining. But you can't just be a washed ex pro player like back in the day and expect to be a successful streamer anymore.
Btw. league of legends is much more popular now on Twitch than back in the day. We are just not in school anymore and people in our age group have other hobbies besides gaming, but the game is still thriving, just with a more diverse community (e.g. not just people in school anymore, but also people in university, with jobs and so on). So back in the day less people used to watch these league streamers, but we were all in the same age bracket and it was more common to talk about gaming as a hobby while being a teenager, so it was much just more likely to know other people playing league.
This is a good point. I guess perspectives change as we grow up, probably doesn't help that I don't really play the game much now haha.@@user-mm9ve4le6m
Cringe sponsor stuff ends 4:04
Loved watching him back in the day
I can’t believe he won streamer of the year!! Not in a bad way it’s just crazy how big league used to be
League still gets the most views of any game on twitch by a wide margin according to twitch data.
@@joshuabryant9845 100%! I still play religiously lol it just used to feel so much bigger
@nikoventuroli9096 Just old man. I've played a bit the last few weeks but it's the first time in months. It got a bit old, we got old lol
@@joshuabryant9845I agree we got old.. I remember being obsessed with this game in 2015 it feels like such a long time ago
@@lonemaus5622018 was honestly of the best 💪
I enjoyed his twitch streams but I find this guy funny in almost every game he plays. Still tune in often to check out his streams, almost always enjoy what he has going on.
only Challengers know that this is a reupload
Yep sorry about that aha. I know you’re a day one if you watched the first video
What happened?
I was thinking I swore I already watched this
@sebastiansossa6834 now I wish I watched last night when it uploaded to know if it got edited xd
@@LoLAthlete im like. 52 minutes ago that i watched that? XD
I watched imaqtpie for the stunning good looks and immaculate taste in early 2000's gangster rap music. The adventure time moba stream will forever be iconic.
I miss being his teammate years ago on Twitch Rivals. Super good guy.
Nice
I rewtatched this out of morbid curiosity to see what he changed that warranted a reupload, the only thing I noticed is in the original one he mentioned imaqtpie reached challenger before applying for CQ and it was missing in this version but I could be wrong because I was tired af when I first watched it
I hate that when that happens. I look back at all my subscriptions and check whether they're active. Inactive channels' latest videos were last uploaded months or years ago without announcement. Like, are you ok? are you done? I haven't seen channels like CartoonHooligans making videos in months.
its crazy I remember at time when other league streamers would have to change their streaming schedule around him and tyler1 because streaming while they were on mean you almost didn't get any views. happy is doing what makes him happy though.
that aged well.He is back as challenger adc and his streams are always nice
He's the most chilled streamer I've seen
I will support QT till this day, don't know him personally but I do love the guy
I recently saw a comment mentioning brofresco. Will you make a video about him too? I loved watching him back in the days
He was in prison right?
@KogMawsTvShow i dont think so. I know that he removed most of his videos to have a clean image because hes now the ceo of a company
@@Amar-pb4bf I mean he maked shady bissnes on youtube with other creators that time.
Didnt he rigged games for views/likes?
between 25 and 35 almost every person looses the passion for gaming. some because they realize they get worse, others because its just not as intresting anymore, the drug gets to soft for the old brain. rip good times when the gift of youth let you have a 20hour uptime full of passion . i long belived its because im not finding a good game anymore and the developers have no clue and no balls. edit: fuck the new world ;)
I no longer watch Twitch but it's good to see he did come back. Was apart of the BDC for awhile. His energy and just stupid little quips always made me happy
i feel the same... my fav games dont feel anymore....
Man this guy was thee streamer to watch for league and on UA-cam. His videos were top notch. I remember watching his videos religiously whenever they came out. Miss him and hope he’s enjoying life from all the hard work he put into his league and twitch/YT career.
Nah, he'a an acoustic weirdo like Voyboy and Yassuo. The fact that you like him means you're also mentally challenged.
@@DonKey496 what is wrong with u? considering u manage to not only insult 1 but 2 people with your fairly short comment, for sure makes u look like a person with some good mental health. making it so that your "opinion" isnt that important while also just embarissing yourself which u prob dont even care about cause u feel no shame for your bad behavior or see it as such.
@@DonKey496WTF are you talking about? 😂😂
Not a single one of his fans gave a crao about him being "inflammatory" towards other people. Damn, we love our man Imaqtpie, even more as he flamed.
It is SO sad that Riot denied old players champions que... it makes 0 sense if they are good enough to play in it because it would provide more visibility for up and coming players and bring more viewership
This guy is INSANELY good.
He did some plays back in the day that honestly i've never seen other adc do
Giant champion pool aswell, amazing player.
4 jackets in one season. FOUR JACKETS
Oh snap it's the "nothin personal kid" guy! Lol. Best line eva.
i was maining adc in season 2 because of this guy and liftlift
Fantastic Mini-docs! Hope for your growth and success!
Thank you man :)
I remember the time i always call imaqtpie “e-mac-t-pie” and my friends are just gonna be hella confused to who that guy is
imaqtpie era, together with other league of legends content creators is my only source of entertainment in 2015-2016. definitely miss them!!
I don't think anyone can play a single game for years and years and not get tired of it. He did the right thing for himself, let go of the past and move onto what gave him energy again.
even tyler1 is getting sick of league lol.. he's been palying chess alot
It's nice he went on to do what he enjoys. No point in playing a game year after year if you're miserable. Even if the viewers are happy.
It's funny they didn't like former pro players in challenger like Dyrus Shiptur and Imaqtpie in Champions Queue, but then they let a bunch of random amateur/collegate players in that were like diamond one tricks then everyone hated it cause the games were solo queue quality.
It feels like 2019-20 were the years most people dropped the game. Hell even I dropped around that time after hitting gold for the first time
Did you remember the show he did with scarra beyond the rift the channel doesnt exist anymore i loved this show
That's crazy, as soon as qt and dyrus quit playing leagues and making all that money, both their girls left them. No emiru moved on to another big streamer. Gotta hate them egirls
I miss him man
yall have that clip of trick2g in his stream saying he didnt care about a viewers bday? been looking for that for ages
I consider this a good ending.
Why would you not allow him to enter challenger ?
i miss this guy. He had a positive impact on my life. Hope all is well.
Met this guy at NA LCS 2016.. such a great dude, and was very personable.
what happened to the first one?
The one and only UA-camr whom I ever bought a merchandise from and I still have the 'small cat and mellow' t-shirt till this day.
will always love qt. his streams were there for me in a very rough time, he kept me above water and i can never thank his goofy ass enough for that. that being said league of legends is boring to watch/play and he was bleeding viewers before he even stop streaming league. i don't rly have time for twitch streams like i used to (mainly due to having a different job that doesn't allow me to sit around and watch em while i work) and a game that i hate even more than league is valorant, so i don't really tune in for those, wish him the best tho dude is a legend.
The reupload including the same old sponsor when the sponsorship deal expired on the 4th is a classic banger
Dont blame anyone for quitting league, they earned their departure
Today it really feels like there's a deep seeded sadness embedded in him somewhere. He's a significantly different person, it worries me sometimes. Something just feels "off"
Why reupload?
1. Died of OD
2. Homeless check in LA, playing from a box in an ally
3. CEO of multibillion tech company.
4. Combination
These were the days ❤
Its almost like he enjoyed the game before ADC role become unplayable?
Well after he moved in the same Time Zone as Tyler, he was competition against Tyler, and people choosed Tyler over him.
Before that it was Tyler in the morning and qtie in the evening
one of my favourite OG streamers he had a-lot of charisma compared to other league players. basically him and sneaky were probably the best pro league streamers to watch
Man I remember teaching hotshotGG how to play Nidalee AD
Doot Diddly Donger Cuckerino HAHA! Ahh the classic meme phrase will always be 10/10 for league memes. ua-cam.com/video/rh9RJ9zDIvQ/v-deo.htmlsi=MIJEkTJFzEoMtZCo
Duel of the apes, my favorite video getting me into league
OH thank god, I thought this was going to be a sad story, so happy to see qt doing alright used to watch him all the time.
LMAO the raid shadow legends add had me in tears, it's like the spanish inquisition!
Why cant I save this videos on a playlist?
this didnt need to be a 10 minute video
7:20 his divorce was not troublesome, people speculate because he doesn't talk about it. he helped lisha move out, tried to set up streaming and other stuff for her. but she ended up starting OF
Am not gonna say i can relate to qt ( As he is a high-elo player and am not ) but I've been playing league of legends since 2010 for the last 3 years i had 0 fun in this game
The meta keeps shifting every 2 weeks sometimes a week i cant keep up with that, also the state of SoloQ is really REALLY bad there is no fun to be had in this game AT ALL.
I can say i can relate to qt in this regard. The game became so stale i had to quit and play it casually. Lets hope this new game mode 2v2v2v2 i dont know how many twos :D be good enough for people to have fun and go back to play the game.
How does meta matter when you are not high elo player? Also what do you mean by the game being stale when in previous sentence you say the meta changes too much? I am not trying to discredit you just understand cuz I left LoL a long time ago and only play for about few weeks a year.
@@tnnetnattninuttn4627 What i meant is, the changes were predictable, Every 2 weeks we know who is gonna be strong and who is not. After awhile i got bored of the changes. at least give the meta a bit of time 1 month or 2 and stop nerfing/buffing every 2 weeks. Either way the game is dead to me now :)
He didn’t vanish, he streams all the time. He just plays fun video games that aren’t a waste of time. IE not league of legends 😅
dont forget his ex wife became an only fan "actress" LOL
Fiona from Shrek?
something that damaged his stream too was the unban of tyler1 his stream was full of people going like "tyler1 waiting stream" in his chat
i miss him. hope he’s doing well.
he is still streaming no worries he is just fine
With a literally millions of games to play, theres a lot of immature adults and childs willing to marry a game, as bad as it sounds, a game so toxic, a multiplayer team based game, where you ends fighting with your own stupid team (the trash soloq). Stream games is more about fun than numbers and money even further for someone like Imaqtpie who probally have enough to invest and make the money work for him, while he does what he really wants, instead of being trapped into a game forever.
4:44 season 6 or 7 I can't remember, anyone else remember though when vayne with shiv just tumble oneshot you? those were funny times in league
Definitely one of the GOAT for twitch as well as League content for YT.
What happened to Brofesco?
League again and again shows that it's base is not fun, but addiction.
QT is a legend, he competed but never made it any more than a game.
Glad he got in and out with the bag and no baggage.
Good for QTpie.
I was never a “fan” but I always enjoyed seeing him around. I hope he leads a meaningful live moving forward.
I see him on Twitch daily lol.
Nah, he ain't a variety streamer... He got a six figure contract from Tencent to stream TFT for 8 hours a day for the next 6 months.
This guy real life South Park character😂
Best "short documentary" ever seen made to just place the sponsor. Solo bad
its so sad to see legends fall. I don't blame qt, im talking about league. it used to be such a good game that rewarded you for outdoing your opponent, winning consecutive games and champ skill. now its such a disgusting, toxic cesspool for anime viewers to play shit like yasuo, alkali, ksante, kayn and any other broken champ with overloaded kits. riot even made a video discussing how their champs "don't have overloaded kits". the game, its devs and its community are the definition of COPE. I miss 2017 league, when I started playing regularly and when the season 1 gamers still streamed; like gbay, qt, dom, trm. now all I see is a bunch of euw randoms. you know how far the game has fallen when all of the OG challengers and content creators have quit the game. it's just not fun anymore.
What is this take, man, you just got older?
League is literally in the best form it's ever been. You are still rewarded for being better than your opponent, that's the whole point of climbing in ranked. There were always toxic players, but riot did a lot against toxicity in recent times so it has gotten better. Why do you care if someone watches anime or plays a champion with a lot of mobility? Looks like you were the toxic player and not them. Sure, some champions are a bit overloaded, but the game is still in such a good spot right now. You don't miss 2017 league, you miss your 2017 life because you were younger. Bro, it's just nostalgia.
"gbay, qt, dom, trm"
I prefer streamers like Midbeast, Dantes, Nemesis, TheBausffs and Caedrel.
IWDominate and Imaqtpie still stream and they are just boring personalities to watch.
But was he streaming when he "disappeared" on yt? 😅
I always enjoy seeing profesional league players, they are marvelously beautiful creatures.
Can we get a "The Ridiculous Rise of Dantes"
That’s a fantastic idea Peter
i feel for him. divorced & his ex made an onlyfans. that has to be such a terrible feeling.
From what I understand, and this is me barely remembering random bits of chatter I heard from other streamers is- yes, ofc QT got bored of league, but it was his denial into the super server or whatever it was called that was his final nail in the coffin. Something about it being a slap in the face to him, insulting, idk. And about the "low effort content", I also vaguely remember someone (maybe Dom?) mentioning he signed a Twitch contract guaranteeing X amount of dollars. So he didn't have to care nearly as much about keeping high numbers for steady dono's and subs when he was just raking it in hand over fist from the deal - that allowed him to make content that made him happy and sustain the same income. But wth do I know, I'm literally just an internet rando who did 0 fact checking.
I think the thing I remember most about QT is everytime someone subbed he would welcome them to the big dick club
i just wish he uploaded new vids tbh, idc what games he plays nowadays he was just entertaining to watch and i don’t pay enough attention to twitch to catch him
I feel a big part of the downfall of his YT and stream in general was the videos no longer have that quality we all know and love and have came accustom to.
good vidoe man, only thing id recommend is more clips of qtpie talking, so. we can get a sense for his charismatic persona
