Liam from the Super Best Friends announced on Reddit that he is leaving the channel. Apparently, he has been having trouble with his mental health and continuing on the channel would impair his ability to get help. Matt responded with a tribute on Twitter.

It took me a while to warm up to Liam, because he is less outwardly quirky than the other. For a while, I thought he was just kind of there, contributing nothing. Over time, however, I started to appreciate how he provided a different, more low-key contrast to the others. He also came into his own as a content creator with series like Portrait of Ruin and Twilight Princess. Of course, my biggest change of heart came when I met him (and the other Best Friends) in person at a convention. Although I spoke to them all, Liam was the most willing to have a friendly conversation. We talked for a few minutes about his playthroughs and games we liked. He was also the only Best Friend to end a sentence with "eh?", making him best Canadian.

It's a shame to see him go, but if it's about his health, it's what needs to happen. Hopefully, his situation will improve and maybe we'll hear from him again in the future.

All we can hope for is that our Rising Super Star will get better soon. It's sad to see him leave, but it's for the best. Still sad, though :(

Goddamn dude, I'll miss him. I hope at least Matt comes back soon.

I'm terrible with goodbyes, I prefer just being silent and crying.

Chris Merkel must be masturbating furiously,the chance of a Blaz Blue vid just came up by 1%.

Um…?

Oops

Oh god, it really is the end of the Zaibatsu.

First it was two best friends

Then it was super best friends

And now it's two best friends yet again

Life truly is cyclical
