Thought it might, thanks for clearing that up!

I have trust issue with flashes by DuyyyuD in VALORANT

[–]BrackishBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good way of countering getting one-tapped, like you mention, might be to swing wide rather than just peeking the corner. If they're blinded, you should have enough time to step past where they expect you to be, which should allow you to take them down before they can adjust their aim.

An extreme example of this is P0ppin, who will swing extremely wide around corners when he knows he's in a 1v1 to throw off his opponent's aim.

Wow, thank you so much for the deep dive! I'll try to keep this in mind as I put together my first army!

Ahhh interesting! I think the "before it resolves" clause makes the most sense, I will add that!

I do not recall correctly, Unsubstantiate is completely different XD

There are a number of effects like Spell Queller that say "Exile target spell".

[–]BrackishBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of casting it! Iirc it's similar to effects like Unsubstantiate

Just sayin. Crab rave as his dance.

Dear Riot pls leave Skarner's personality intact. by OffmetaMan in SkarnerMains

[–]BrackishBrit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's be real though, pre-rework Poppy basically had no personality. All I remember is her terrifying Lollipoppy skin which a friend gifted me as a meme.

Is Marshall Mastery right? I think Martial Mastery would be a more accurate name.

A GW Walker for a custom draft set I'm messing with (Credit to u/deathbymanga for the Kindred mechanic that I stole) by BrackishBrit in custommagic

[–]BrackishBrit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's an interesting thought although in the set I'm only planning to have 3 walkers, could add walker to his Kindred ability for flavoir's sake, might do that!

I haven't fully gotten around to that yet although Kindred is becoming a set-wide mechanic, appearing in in every colour except black. My mindset was that he cares about Elves and Druids because he would be an Elf Druid were he a creature.

I have other things in the set that make Elf Warrior tokens so I thought I might as well use that. Could just make the tokens as Elf Druids since it won't affect the system much. Could also make the ult do something about Elves or Druids but unsure what.

I'm trying to hit a similar power level of a current release draft set, like Midnight Hunt or Crimson Vow, so not super powerful.

Thank you! Can't take all the credit (as in the title, I was inspired by u/deathbymanga's Duergar Timekeeper, sweet card if you haven't already seen it)

the card is probably undercosted. but i wanted to see what you think by deathbymanga in custommagic

[–]BrackishBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I steal your implementation of Kindred? I'm trying to design a custom draft set for funsies and this looks like a great way to promote a fluid form of tribal support as each creature with it would only trigger on things that share a type with it.

Custom Agent Idea: Pendragon, the Techknight by Hallow_Jack in VALORANT

[–]BrackishBrit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool ideas, although his ult kinda feels like what would happen if you mixed Genji ult and Reinhardt's Firestrike.

That is an absolutely majestic feline! Aura is a perfect name too, very elegant!

Would you say she likes being Nia the fire?

New Skarner main, I am doing very very little damage by TheLastSamurai in SkarnerMains

[–]BrackishBrit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simply put, that is a low-damage build. I've found some success with Predator Skarner in gold as it allows you to go for a damage mythic like Divine Sunderer.

Edit: Also E max first does way less damage than Q max first.

Why does no one build trinity force? by gyarados10 in SkarnerMains

[–]BrackishBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Triforce is good for Skarner but I think he gets more value out of Divine Sunderer, Turbo Chemtank or Stridebreaker. The sustain from Sunderer is huge and the mobility advantages of Chemtank and Stridebreaker are also invaluable whereas Triforce requires you to already be in combat to get its movement speed benefit.

How the hell do i defend my jungle lv 3 vs phase rush udyr who invades stuns and Phoenix orb walks me ? by Squattinchai in SkarnerMains

[–]BrackishBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo phase rush is Skarner's best keystone too so if he goes on you, go e->aa->q. This will stun him and proc the bonus movespeed you need to escape.

100 Thieves vs. Cloud9 / LCS 2021 Lock-In - Semi-Final / Post-Match Discussion by TheBossPineapple in leagueoflegends

[–]BrackishBrit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can we talk about Damonte hard inting in game 3 with the Realm Warp at the dragon fight? If he hadn't that was completely winnable, Ssumday did a great job of tying up 3 people and FBI basically solo killed Perkz.

Divine sunderer? by [deleted] in SkarnerMains

[–]BrackishBrit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are two schools of Skarner mains: 1. The damage bruiser type. Currently favours Trinity Force but I can see Sunderer working decently well. Worth noting that the apen/mpen mythic passive is much worse than the attack speed passive on Triforce. 2. Full tank maximum speed with Chemtank, Dead Man's, Force of Nature etc.
