Playing Lee Sin has trained me off of smart cast with indicators and onto og smartcast, but I do miss the easy ability to easily see the exact range of spells in a certain direction eg for using Ivern Q to travel over walls.

Old battleraka was great because you could gently caress up rivens in that 1v1 map that became ARAM.

Smartcast everything including items; no indicator, it makes spellcasts lag. Bind shift+Q/W/E/R to normal casting. Press shift to test ranges if you need precision, otherwise learn your ranges.

I always turn smart cast off for rumble ult because I gently caress it up, which is weird because I have no problem with viktor laser or talia w. I should really just play rumble in practice tool

Can someone talk to me about how to play against Darius? Whether as a melee or ranged champion, I get dumpstered and farmed on respawn timer unless I literally just stay at the edge of xp range. I know part of it is just "don't get grabbed," but the range of his grab is as long as or almost as long as most ranged champions' auto attacks and one slip-up just means death. And as a melee champion? Uhm, what? How am I supposed to stand out of the range of apprehend when I have to get into melee to cs? There has to be some kind of simple heuristic that I'm just not getting. I've tried kiting; I've tried all-inning; I've tried trading — it all comes up with death. It's not even that I can't kill him, it's that I cannot survive him; I have to either cede the lane to him entirely, or he kills me as soon as he decides he wants to and unless my Flash is up I die — and even then it's a crapshoot, since he can stack his passive on you in one combo. I just got farmed 6 kills in a row by him trying out Maokai top, and it wasn't until after the 5th death that I even broke 10 cs because he would kill me under turret with no items (but a huge level advantage) while I'm trying to farm under turret.

I'm usually complaining about how much I hate ADCs so I want to give a quick shout-out to this really good Caitlyn I had (for plat at least). I didn't see it during live gameplay, but during the first clip look at how Cait instantly puts down a trap when I hit W on Nami, so that Nami is trapped immediately upon landing. If she had reacted a few frames slower, it wouldn't have done anything: Cait trap actually takes 1.1s to arm, and Rakan knockup only lasts 1s.

As Maokai? Well if you're not poo poo, you can W his Q to avoid his biggest damage spell, but other than that, you just scrape up farm and don't feel him and wait for your jungler. Darius basically never loses 1v1s but if you poke him down, and then get ganks, he generally becomes useless late game. Learn to farm under tower. And don't fight him level 1 like my idiot teammates Or you can just play Mundo or Vlad and you'll win the lane automatically I guess if that's your thing

Teikanmi posted:As Maokai? Let me stop you right there. But thanks for the advice! I'll try it out next time. e: How exactly am I supposed to poke him as a melee man, though? I could walk up to the minion line and Q through it, I suppose, or throw a non-bushempowered sapling at him? But that shoves the wave, and all he has to do is flash over or walk around the minion line and I'm dead. It matters that I wasn't building tanky, I'm sure; I started with dark seal and refillable thinking I'd use it for the sustain, but nope I'd just get 100-to-5%-and-bleeding within seconds of returning to lane.

Addamere posted:Can someone talk to me about how to play against Darius? get a lot of ganks because darius has a lot of trouble holding the lane back if you dodge his qs properly as every time he misses a q he pushes the wave for no reason. so just apply some minor poke to him while prioritizing not taking damage or making a heavy trade, let him overextend, and then have your jungler come gently caress him up because darius is one of the easiest guys to gank in the game. if you can not get a gank just farm under tower if it comes to that. darius is super weak against towers because his passive aggros

old rod of ages was crazy loving efficient so stacking it was never really a bad build. my friend in like season 1 used to stack archangels on heimerdinger at like roughly 2000 elo because those sumbitches stacked and if he got enough archangels he could put down marksman DPS level turrets. old league item stacking was funny but also really stupid and kind of bad for the game i think because part of the fun of item builds is trying to make synergies

Addamere posted:Let me stop you right there. You can out poke him onany ranged - auto him when he goes to cs minions, walk away when he moves towards you. Pushing the lane a little early can help, 3 or 4 extra minio s will win you any early trade. On maokai in specific run CoC if you want ez tank lane or thunder if you want to buzh cheese. When he puls you wait for the q then w on top of him so you take no damage. Then q to push him off and slow and disengage by walking into the bush with the saplingz. Freeze lane and scale for late or ask for ganks using your w -> r combo to lock down.

Blow them on Dreadnova Darius since 1. It's the newest 2. Because of #1 it's the rarest skin in the game so it's the coolest of those three Also Vayne is garbage right now anyways edit: Also Dreadnova is kinda pay to win because the Q indicator is way more clear on it than any other Darius skin Teikanmi fucked around with this message at 10:07 on May 13, 2017 |
