The Desk Companion on thatswhy.gg is a Windows app that opens the site in a named window beside League. It watches your local client so champ select jumps to Affirmations, in game stays quiet, and post game opens your review without searching your Riot ID again. Not an overlay on Summoner's Rift. Not required to use the site. A pinned browser tab is fine until you are alt tabbing between League and three other windows trying to remember whether you already searched your name this queue.
Frequently Asked Questions

A Windows app that loads thatswhy.gg in a named window you Alt+Tab to beside League. It reads your local client phase so Affirmations, Live Game, and post game show up without another search.
