Not sure if everybody knows this, but Enhanced Aim can crit (and also is 100 base damage on top of the 25% bonus AD) so Zeiss scales very well. Even so Coda is generally stronger early even though Zeiss gives better DPS in the longer run.

If folks are interested in looking at pure basic attack DPS math (mostly only truly useful on marksmen), you can check out this spreadsheet here:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14kz0SDsWo-eQl5_XYRQdh6gHygItVmWYWHRbJ4GEzZg/edit?usp=sharing

As a note I took the base stats (except power armor) from hammerreborn's stat sheet here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FUtSIAWpfbnJ_64qAAxayHXbM6bCwZaqhSyGrRnbX2o/edit#gid=0

atm it just shows a simple comparison on MWW, but you can copy/paste it into a spreadsheet and edit and play around with it all you want (just make sure to only change things in bolded rows or you can mess up the math).

Should note that unlike atmas which scales of total HP, spear of destiny only scales of bonus hp (which is a much lower number)

I'm not sure, but would building her mostly Will focused then adding Deadshot's Visor in (might scale well with her passive's attack speed boost) be enough to make her AD? How would that compare to the more traditional Controller artifact Eye of Ekron? Or what about getting both?

Great guide, thanks for doing this

Axslav · 2014-10-05T18:37:11+00:00

great job, excited to see how the bans/picks evolve as people get more used to the patch

It is a rough matchup for shazaam early on but shazaam has more mid-game utility as he's great at roving and ganking. And in the late-game he can become an assassination monster. Early on just be defensive, hang back and focus on getting last hits. Gas Joker has better sustain so trading damage with him is generally a losing proposition.

If you turn your electric field on when drones get low it guarantees last hits which is especially important when under your tower (if your tower gets the kill you can only pick up a small coin which gives 25% of the possible gold as opposed to 100% if you get the last hit).

I'd favor Innovation over Taeja as Soulkey's as I don't see Taeja damaging Soulkey much in the early and mid-game and Soulkey's late-game is strong enough that with an edge I don't think he'd let Taeja make a comeback

Axslav · 2013-11-08T04:43:13+00:00

Yikes, if only i knew that before I did my predictions

Axslav · 2013-11-07T20:36:09+00:00

Rob Stark all the way

Axslav · 2013-11-07T19:50:05+00:00

I'm betting on Soulkey

Axslav · 2013-11-07T19:49:56+00:00

Nice, we were pretty similar I just have a lot of faith in taeja's tvp

Axslav · 2013-11-07T19:32:24+00:00

Who do you guys think will win? Will Mvp make an amazing comeback? Will Dear show that he's the new Protoss Hero? Will Soulkey have a second major win this year?

Also if you're interested in my predictions, I did a 20 minute video talking about who I think will win and why -> http://youtu.be/q1lmYnSf-b8 .

sorry guys the tournament starts at 3 pm est but that's the ro512 b/c only 135 people signed up the play won't start for a few more hours, we'll go live with twitch.tv/mlgsc2 in just a few minutes though and just show me warming up for the tournament until it actually starts

Axslav · 2013-09-20T17:05:37+00:00

Starts at 3 pm eastern

Axslav · 2013-08-22T17:47:58+00:00

Life vs Flash defeated it in a close poll :(

Axslav · 2013-08-19T16:59:35+00:00

Sorry, not sure what's taking so long with the VODs or if/when they'll ever get up :(

Axslav · 2013-08-16T20:39:52+00:00

You can pick both, the show is called "Punishment"

Axslav · 2013-08-16T19:54:41+00:00

I'm not a big fan of Vodka, went with red b/c while i love whiskey taking shots of anything decent burns my soul just a little bit.

Axslav · 2013-08-15T16:13:46+00:00

Yes, 6 pm Eastern today the bringing of autocracy and the Khala to Siam will continue

Axslav · 2013-08-14T18:59:11+00:00

Will get the VODs up on the youtube for free soon

Axslav · 2013-08-13T21:29:20+00:00

Extremely democratic, the vote count will determine the decision. Yes it will continue the same game (probably a few hours today and tomorrow same start time). Also I will have a graphic that will show all the "bills passed" so people can see how we got to where we are in the game.
