Structural luck, Encounter luck, Event luck, Outcome variance can change every arrow in the path. This successful-only dataset cannot observe the near-identical paths that did not break through, so luck stays visible and unscored.
Multiplying capacity documented later in the path. Measures what was present, not whether it was inherited, earned, self-built, external, or mixed.
Access or conditions documented near the beginning of the path. Zero means "no clear evidence in reviewed sources," not "advantage was absent."

LilyPichu began creating YouTube videos in June 2010 at age 18 and went viral in 2011 with her parody song 'I'll Quit LoL.' She grew up in a Korean household in New York/New Jersey with early musical training (piano from a young age), which translated into her multi-talent content spanning gaming, music, and art. She joined OfflineTV in July 2017 at age 25, cementing her position as one of the most subscribed female Twitch streamers. No significant family financial advantages are documented, though her musical household provided early creative development. Her success was driven by early YouTube adoption, viral LoL content, and the OfflineTV creator collective.
