Why would anyone think that Kalista build is a good idea. That cannot possibly be a good idea. 2 lifesteal items, a hurricane, and a defensive item. No IE, No Zeal, No LW. I just. I don't know.

I can respect the unique nature of Kalista's kit and that some or part of that item choice is a good idea, but all of it combined seems like Gambit got a guy massively fed who subsequently built his champion like he was playing an ARAM.

I think going bork + hurricane is ok, but following it up with a BT is not good.

i was just thinking the same thing but a lot of people seem to be doing that build, no zeal item and IE last.. seems kinda lame to not get any crit until your very last item, idk

Sneaky's Kalista debut in NA LCS two weeks ago was BOTRK/Hurricane/BT/LW/something else (I no longer recall and can't check at the moment). Did he go LW before BT?

Edit: That said we've seen a lot of weird poo poo with Kalista, I don't think Doublelift built what Sneaky built besides the Hurricane and I recall Cop going Hurricane/PD/IE/BT with no LW and something else in a full damage build.

I'm sure they just want to survive longer for the stacks, and i guess your secondary attacks can't crit... It isn't as bad after thinking about it, but it depends on your playstyle I think.

Giants was behind Gambit while they were in their base with two people who can jump walls and two ults that could block them in and just let Gambit walk out past the bottom inhib.

Do Gambit even talk to each other during the match? They get the baron and then all go in five different directions and engage in a variety of 2v3s across the map.

Kalista loves AD and attack speed because of Rend doing nothing with crit, that's why. Of course later on her right clicks hit so hard that getting crit becomes good.

I haven't watched this game as I have to write fuckloads of code so I'm kind of glad it's the disastrous cripple fight I thought it'd be. I'm getting the full Gambit experience (or at least as much as I can take) just reading the thread :swoon:
