Sett was a quadra flex when first released before nerfed: Top / Jg / Mid / Sp.... And some duo queue abuses adc Sett + Soraka for running down all tank sp and adc enemy matchup... so close enough penta flex if we include the duo cheesers strat.
beast bro go back and check 2:35. the W seems to stun when the animation is gone - though there is still the slightest red colouration around the edges. could be useful for sneaky stuns
Its ok to be a Faker fan boy, enthusiasm is contagious. And you know the players love that they actually have fans deep down. You make great vids i learn alot from the commentary.
10:55 The difference between Nashor's Tooth and Lich Bane choice's is preferential. Nashor's Tooth does mathematically have better synergy and stats for Ekko than Lich Bane and is really an amazing item. However, Lich Bane is still good on him. The main difference between the items is Lich Bane gives movement speed and slightly more instant burst. If you like movement speed, you'll usually find yourself taking Lich Bane. Note: Never take both it's a waste of gold.
Hi Midbeast, 14:50 Cho'gath is a legit pentaflex pick. Although he is less played as a support or Carry Bot, he's got what it takes in his kit and core builds.
Rumble in MSI meta was actually a quadra flex. People played him as a support in minor leagues and used it quite a bit in solo queue. Rumble+Varus is broken, but Varus was banned quite a bit during the competition
Has anyone ever told you you’d make a great caster?! 🎙You have a huge amount of game knowledge, never a dull moment with your commentating, and you have an awesome accent! 😅
Pantheon at season 9 worlds was a quadra flex (top, jgl, mid, support) Drew. Problem was that he was banned in 119/120 games and won the only game he was picked in. This was shortly after his rework too.
Cleaver is actually situationally worth it now. It should still be 200 gold cheaper, but it's not an adc item so we can only expect so much. Lucian, trist, kalista, kayle (solo queue only) for triple flex or more. Kayle was one of the few champs you used to be able to play in all 5 roles before her rework. Now I think she's too punishable bot lane without range until level 6.
Yeah but poor choice, because he still needed two minions before he can level up. Maybe if the minions all started aggroing the the low health rangd minions and he can get his second Q in before the timer is up. But good play though.
No, Faker IS magical. 100%. I’m a grown ass man who watcheS LCK like other Americans watch baseball and I’m an absolute fan. He’s my favorite across everything, even above actors and stuff. He’s the man and his heart is gold
Can u review some of Gumayusi vod too.. i think he's currently no.1 on the kr ladder next is Chovy. .is midbeast only reviewing midlaner? idk I'm new here lol.
Heimerdinger is uber flexible right now. Top, mid, adc and supp, I've seen him played in all those positions. He's probably not great jungle, since his kit is geared towards holding a positions, but it's probably playable at least. Quadra flex for sure tho.
i think yas was the only champ considered quad flex in league, even though jungle was not his strong suit it was playable. Was top tier Mid and ADC, while being able to top and jungle as well.
When ez jungle was a thing he was a solid quad flex. Could go top, ap mid, adc, and jungle. All were solid. The closest thing to that currently is Quinn with top, mid, jungle, adc
Hiemerdinger can be an actual pentaflex, legit can top and pressure, can mid, adc and support since they have a stun/pressure waves for better drag control
Can you make a video where you give your opinion on who you should main or have in your champ pool midlane? Especially for us lower Elo people, who would love to climb Love your videos!!
You might wanna look into what phage does and what the heartbound axe does. The changes at this point is something you seem to miss frequently (the passives)
14:36 Sett was and still is a legitimate Pentaflex. He crushes all melee matchups in mid and top, he's good into melee supports, if you pick senna you can go fasting senna and play him as the farmer in the ADC role, and he's not the best jungler but he's definitely playable.
morgana was in my opinion a pentaflex, after she got the buffs to her jungling, and shes always been one of those mages like syndra that could go adc. maybe she would be bad top lane, but in my elo, she is awesome in every lane :P
In the early seasons, nidalee was a penta flex, I m sure about top, mid, jungle and support; not sure about ADC, but I think I saw her played there once or twice
4:35 I don't know, not seeing Faker at worlds didn't do anything for me. The lack of crowd was important, yes, but the hype around all the strong teams at Worlds in 2020 was quite good and we got to see fresh names and teams, and not just one team hard stomping everyone else. Exciting games all around and unpredictability.
lol i disagree.. worlds 2020 just DK stomping everyone really favor them to win it all..hmm maybe Lpl teams but they kinda underperform tho. Faker without Worlds feels not complete tho especially for some OG fans.
Rumble is really good Top/Mid/jungle already... and he has been played as support maxing e in the past + with the right support i can see him as apc bot also.
0:55 I think faker was hoping that a minion would die and he would get the level up, which would’ve netted him the kill on Ekko. However the minions were agro on ekko. Overall I don’t think it’s a simple silver mistake that we might think it is, but a slight miscalculation.
That fight when xiao lao ban hit lvl 2 was super weird. Not only was faker not respecting by backing off knwing ekko will hit 2 of next minion, he also traded back after. Dunno what happenend there
No one's gonna talk about ekko's W at 2:30? The timing on that was perfect! Even faker thought it faded from the ground.
p2w skin op XD
mashallah
just p2w skin ngl
True Ekko players are aware of that little window where you can still stun someone after the circle fades. It's not just on that particular skin.
14:36 I think pantheon was probably a quadratic flex
Sett too is a quadratic flex (Top.jungle.Mid.Support)
Cho can be mid/top/jungle/supp
@@anasm2704 sett was even played adc with senna
@@anasm2704 i remember worlds 2020 they actually played him everywhere if i remember correctly
quadratic kekw
can u think of any cubic flex picks
Shen is a pentaflex, top,mid,jungle,support and river Shen.
🤣🤣
River Shen: River Shen
River Shen
Shiver Ren
Can BOT Shen if ranged support
14:50 Gragas could been played in one point as jungle, top, mid, support and as an apc with fasting Senna.
There was a time Lulu was a quad flex
sett aswell
Same with cho
Timo could be played in any lane and any role, any time and anywhere even as jungle before the jungle update.
Sion can be all roles and sett 2 except for adc i guess but If you good you can pull it off
13:34 says that as kai'sa did 70% of Samira's hp in 1 second
I was gonna meme the same thing :')
That plasma proc would've killed her because kaisa is completely balanced
and was i every game of MSI... But every game had the same champs anyway, so boring to watch
One more auto and samira dies.
"Jensen knows this" 💀💀💀
remember watching that live... can see the pain in his eyes
xD
6:04 damn drew you didn't have to do him like that
14:36 that time sett was mid jgl top and supp
I'm pretty sure he went bot for a fasting Senna too
Sett was a quadra flex when first released before nerfed: Top / Jg / Mid / Sp.... And some duo queue abuses adc Sett + Soraka for running down all tank sp and adc enemy matchup... so close enough penta flex if we include the duo cheesers strat.
Pantheon too. top/jg/mid/supp all work.
11:15 worth to mention, that you can use auto after ulting with lee sin, small thing but probably it prevented ekko from using ult, gamechanging
Thanks boi
Did anyone see that at 2:33? Ekko’s stun goes off when his W seems to have disappeared. That is an amazing visual trick
I wonder if that's just a True Damage skin thing more than others
Yeah as an Ekko one trick I abuse that alot with his True Damage skin
Gragas is the widest flex even as of recently, he could be played Support, Mid, Jungle, and Top
Same as Sett
Cho can be played in all 5
Pantheon was a quadra flex: Top, JG, Mid, Sup
epic
i think sett was a quadra flex at one point as well
Same as sett, gragas, shaco
@@lukasdanko1557 shaco?
@@JH-tj1qs jg , supp, mid and top can be played too with ignite and tp
“Low test, he’s not a man because he builds defensive early” lol
Your content is quickly becoming my fav stuff on the tube, keep on the great work!
beast bro go back and check 2:35. the W seems to stun when the animation is gone - though there is still the slightest red colouration around the edges. could be useful for sneaky stuns
Only works on true dmg ekko skin
skilled champ

“Xiao Lao Ban” means “Little Boss” in Chinese
interesting :D
3:56 - When Lee says, "Dong!" XD

Happy Bday dude🤙🏼

@@annoxd zoomer
Sett, Pantheon, Soraka (when she was lane viable in S10), and even Seraphine were all quad flex champs. There's probably more.
Soraka! Forgot about Bananarama
6:08 Bro Jensen can't catch a break can he, I'm actually dead xD
Hi Midbeast,
14:50 Cho'gath is a legit pentaflex pick. Although he is less played as a support or Carry Bot, he's got what it takes in his kit and core builds.
"when ekko is cc'd - of course Jensen knows this - ..." Ouch man that was hard 🤣
Up at 5am, may as well stay up for midbeast vid

Feels like Faker can bring back any champion mid and still win against the world N1's of every champ.
Pantheon at season 9 worlds was a quadra flex (top, jgl, mid, support) Drew. Problem was that he was banned in 119/120 games and won the only game he was picked in. This was shortly after his rework too.

Midbeast is legit hilarious man. Good stuff.
6:08 Jensen will never live this down will he lol. Man's out here catching strays.
I very much enjoy how often you bring up Caps and his coin flip play style 😂
14:56 Sett he could be player as a Top laner, Jungler, Midlaner, and Supp
i played against adc sett with pyke.. he carried
gragas too, anything but adc
Was thinking of sett aswell
Yasuo > Sett
The jensen joke made me drop a like!
Sick video dude, was Kennen a quadra flex at one point?
18:55 "his q goes through the diana"
sounds about right since she is a teammate 🤣
faker probably did that bc he thought someone is gonna jump on the diana, pro play predictions but he was unlucky aha
@@femmehooker yeah i did think that aswell but that whole sequence there was a disaster by faker overall
I think Swain is about the only Pentaflex that comes to mind. Effectively ranked in all 5 roles at some point.
Rumble. Most of the others are pretty horrible supports and some are pretty horrible junglers.
When in gods name could swain jg
0:52 Faker probably thought he'd level up mid Q, he would have killed the ekko either with E or W.
Yeah but poor choice, because he still needed two minions before he can level up. Maybe if the minions all started aggroing the the low health rangd minions and he can get his second Q in before the timer is up. But good play though.
You have the best high elo insights, love these vids.
No, Faker IS magical. 100%. I’m a grown ass man who watcheS LCK like other Americans watch baseball and I’m an absolute fan. He’s my favorite across everything, even above actors and stuff. He’s the man and his heart is gold
Can u review some of Gumayusi vod too.. i think he's currently no.1 on the kr ladder next is Chovy. .is midbeast only reviewing midlaner? idk I'm new here lol.
dude i love your videos so much!
rumble is a 4 way flex, hes been played support in pro play multiple times along with top/mid/jng
Swain couldve been a huge flex back in the swain adc days, he could've been top, mid, adc, jg to an extent, and support.
Seraphine was a Quadra flex for a while in spring split. Morgana is arguably a Penta flex right now
Heimerdinger is uber flexible right now. Top, mid, adc and supp, I've seen him played in all those positions. He's probably not great jungle, since his kit is geared towards holding a positions, but it's probably playable at least. Quadra flex for sure tho.
There was that guy who took Kayle as a penta flex pretty successfully
Quadra Flex, probably old Morde after his change with the drakes.
Sett was a Quadra flex at one point, when he got the buff soon after release. Top, jungle, mid, support.
i think yas was the only champ considered quad flex in league, even though jungle was not his strong suit it was playable. Was top tier Mid and ADC, while being able to top and jungle as well.
When ez jungle was a thing he was a solid quad flex. Could go top, ap mid, adc, and jungle. All were solid. The closest thing to that currently is Quinn with top, mid, jungle, adc
bro i watched a lot of your videos recently and i managed to hit masters on eune, btw i play from s7, you earned sub!
The biggest flex had to have been pyke during G2 prime, wherein one season they played it in every lane.
Sett was probably the most relevant quad flex seeing him mid, top, bot, jg
@midbeast could u say that gragas could be a quadra flex pick ?
Pantheon and Sett a while ago were a quadra flex
Sion was a quadra flex back in the days and even a pentaflex in fasting with senna i guess
14:36 Cho'gath, quad flex, and maybe penta since cho senna is a thing
Only noobs go cho jungle
14:35 Sett on release? I remember him Jungle, Supp, Top and in some rarer situations even Mid.
Hiemerdinger can be an actual pentaflex, legit can top and pressure, can mid, adc and support since they have a stun/pressure waves for better drag control
Can you make a video where you give your opinion on who you should main or have in your champ pool midlane? Especially for us lower Elo people, who would love to climb
Love your videos!!
There's no way faker played lee sin mid again
Sett was a Penta flex when he was busted, and fasting senna was the main thing
You might wanna look into what phage does and what the heartbound axe does.
The changes at this point is something you seem to miss frequently (the passives)
wow this midbeast dude is rly handsome
2:35 is that a bug or what? Ekkos ability disappeared and manage to stun him lol
biggest flex was pre season 6 corki.
adc,mid,top,jungle.
1 minute feed was calculated blunder trade. 200 IQ
14:36 Sett was and still is a legitimate Pentaflex. He crushes all melee matchups in mid and top, he's good into melee supports, if you pick senna you can go fasting senna and play him as the farmer in the ADC role, and he's not the best jungler but he's definitely playable.
Gragas can be quadra flexed
gragas can go support, jungle, top and mid or is not good in one of them?
6:04 bruh lmao
Can we do more Xiao Lao Ban Reviews????!!!!! Please, I’ve been waiting for another one
sett and pantheon play every role other than adc, those are the biggest flex champs I can think of
Twitch n Chogath too
@@cowfishblobfish twitch top and support
Cho Mid or support? are they applicable?
morgana was in my opinion a pentaflex, after she got the buffs to her jungling, and shes always been one of those mages like syndra that could go adc. maybe she would be bad top lane, but in my elo, she is awesome in every lane :P
I think Sett is a big penta flex in low elo I’ve had some good success with sett playing in any role if played right
14:36 Jayce for a quadraflex also maybe? mid/top/jungle and adc(sometimes, but not preferably)
Quinn and Gragas may have been the biggest flex picks
14:36 Wukong bot,mid,top,jungle and sett was a quadra flex early but supp instead of bot
20:00 how did he teleport there? noc ult on
Cheers Chad for the great review!
"jensen knows this" every single one of us watching: That's a big oof
Gragas as a huge viable flex - he was played top so much this season as well as support, and besides that mid and jungle
In the early seasons, nidalee was a penta flex, I m sure about top, mid, jungle and support; not sure about ADC, but I think I saw her played there once or twice
4:35 I don't know, not seeing Faker at worlds didn't do anything for me.

Faker without Worlds feels not complete tho especially for some OG fans.
Drew making fun of himself just hits different
14:36 Sett was the ultimate flex (combo with senna could also be adc)
14:50 Trundle was a Quadraflex like 2 patches ago
At worlds panth was penta flex pick, top/jg/mid/supp/„adc with senna”
sett or camille have been 5 flex at some point i believe? any bruiser that can be played support is a very flexible champ
4:14 Yup, totally agree, Worlds isn't fun without Faker. If Faker gets to play in Worlds, the average viewership will probably increase 100k.
14:37 I think Swain could be a quadra flex?
Flex needs to be good at the roles too. Swain Top is not viable anymore, especially not in pro play. Swain Mid is idk but most likely bad.
@@somedude5097 true. Just a suggestion
14:36 my man Pantheon smashing
Rumble is really good Top/Mid/jungle already... and he has been played as support maxing e in the past + with the right support i can see him as apc bot also.
was waiting for the Tyler 1 reference 2:00
Neeko penta flex. Could play her normal build in JG or Top, could play her support, or AD Neeko in top or adc. Shit was insane.
14:36 I think Pyke by G2 was a penta flex
0:55 I think faker was hoping that a minion would die and he would get the level up, which would’ve netted him the kill on Ekko. However the minions were agro on ekko. Overall I don’t think it’s a simple silver mistake that we might think it is, but a slight miscalculation.
