For example they could give Mister Yi AP scaling on his Q and W, that would be extremely cool and good.

Their stated goal is to make more builds viable on more champions, and I am all for it. I'm a sucker for jank

Why do build guides no longer recommend Nashor's on Kai'sa? Is evolving her W no longer worth it?

kaisa is being played as a pure crit adc because the itemization is way better. her W upgrade is fun but considering she is used almost purely as a dive character instead of a poke champ its kind of irrelevant to her

SirSamVimes posted:Would Rageblade work on current Kai'sa then? Or does her passive not do enough damage to be worth it without AP investement? No, because crit is so powerful right now that unless you're going fully into the on-hit path losing the ability to crit is just too big a price. You want to dive into the backline and explode a carry with a Q and 1-2 autos, which is why the current thing is rushing the Q evolve by getting a Serrated Dirk before you finish your Noonquiver item.

Importantly for Kai'sa, Rageblade also badly fucks up her build path now that it no longer provides any flat AD on its own. You pretty much have to go Kraken/Galeforce into Collector, at which point you may as well just keep going into Runaan's as it is.

Apparently there's a new idea about doing kraken -> phantom dancer which instantly evolves your Q and E since the buff at the cost of no longer being able to get an early Q from dirk, might give that a go in my next game.

I feel like kraken is prioritized too much by bad ADCs when galeforce exists. Not just the active but getting some actual movespeed is hella nice as well over a paltry amount of AS. I take galeforce on every ADC now because it's the only thing that helps me live in these hellish midgame teamfights.

every ADC that doesn't just get huge free damage from their kits sucks and thereby kraken is a waste of time

Not just the active but getting some actual movespeed is hella nice as well over a paltry amount of AS. passives are better than actives for bad players because you can't forget to use them  that's why Riot removed 90% of the non-mythic actives in the game

in fairness, supports were a bit overloaded with actives

Honestly the removal of actives is bad, and the prioritaisation of passive items is bad. Particularly things like grevious wounds being passive makes it impossible to balance - Either healing is too strong and you can't burst people, or healing is totally useless and you should never use it. The difference between the two is probably about 10% GW. Really they should of made all the grevious wounds 100%, but make it active and lasts 3 seconds or something./

My experience with AP twitch is supporting one as Leona, getting a really good engage at level 5 or 6, the target I engaged on took practically zero damage and I looked at twitch's items and he had a blasting wand and I went "Oh that's why"

as a Twitch main my strategy is definitely built around the idea that I will never actually do damage but everyone on my team and the enemy team will assume that I do

There's good reasons to call a surrender vote even when you're ahead on paper. When you can't wrangle the "victorious" cats and effectively put pressure on objectives, it's easy to see the loss coming 10 minutes before it actually happens I am sometimes pleasantly surprised, but a recent Baron buffed Soraka split push that took 2 towers, an inhib, and brought the nexus towers to half health, before my team decided to win with me, really drove home why I usually decide to take carries in the support role The Door Frame fucked around with this message at 05:23 on Feb 5, 2021 |

I'm not a "never surrender" guy, but if you vote yes on a surrender and go on to win the game, the game should auto-vote no on surrenders for you for a month. It means you're bad at surrendering and don't deserve the privilege The difference between a climbing player and a stuck player is whether you win 50% or 52% of your games, so never having a comeback win basically caps how often you can win

Surrendering is for when you believe there is no longer any hope of victory.

I like playing with my usual group because we're consistently a 5 stack for hours with people rotating in and out but they are WAY too eager to through out an ff at 15 to get out of a game one or two people are finding un-fun. Totally not what surrenders are for. Not coincidentally, all but three of them are deathly afraid of ranked

You can be a dozen kills ahead, but if you can't effectively group and bring down a single objective, the gold advantage doesn't really mean all that much in the grand scheme of things if the other team actually can. I've watched too many games like that go south to not call for a surrender vote that I know won't pass when I see the loss coming
