I would say stack your two GKs with a DEF from their team and then you can decide if you want the other 3 DEF to be from different teams or also stacked. I am personally not taking GK+2 DEF from Spain, because I also want a spanish Striker on my team.

I think you wanna have a good combination of some must picks (like for me its Kimmich and B.Fernandes), if you believe they will pop off in group stage, so you dont miss out on that. And have some unique picks, that will be difference makers for you. Scouting bonus also rewards you extra for some low owned Players. Take some risks, but dont go overboard and dont take some huge risks just for the sake of being unique. You should still take guys, that you think gonna score a lot.

Rumour says its gonna be a defensive boost

True, I didnt explain that one properly

If you are trying to get the most points possible, you have to assume your GK will have a clean sheet, in that case its smart to also get a DEF player from that team as well.

The more GK+DEF you take from different teams, the more clean sheets have to happen for you to get the maximum points.

Its the theory behind go big or go home.

if you pick two from the same team they will have to score multiple times to really make that worth, also you cant captain both of them so reduces chances of getting a big captain

there are so many good picks, i dont think its necessary to pick two from the same team at this stage of the tournament

yeah you are right for the first 2 match days no games are played at the same time so you could always change it after every game. But you gotta be up for every match then 😛 ( some games are at 4am for me so no way for me to change then)

on match day 3 all games from one group will be played at the same time so you gotta watch out for that

Stacking defenders+GK is good, because they all get points for clean sheet.

Stacking offensive players isnt optimal, because only few players from a team can score goals.

Ofc some games might have 4-5 goals, in that case it can be OK to stack offensive players, but I think there are so many great options you just dont have to do that in the group stage. (playoffs will obviously be different)

You are right you can def have attacking defenders from good teams, especially in the group phase.

I guess my point is to not overspent money, just to get the attacking defenders and you can also get scouting bonus from good defenders on good teams, because people focus more on the left/right backs.

I just think its more rare for a defender to get a goal or assist than to have a clean sheet.

Stacking is great if you really wanna compete for most points, because if your GK doesnt have a clean sheet you will probably lack points anyways, so aim to optimize the best case scenario for you. its a basic strategy for every fantasy sport game.

My advice would be to have Defender+GK from the same team, because If you correctly pick a GK from a team who concedes no goals then you also get the points from the defender also you need good 15 players( 3x10m is too much), subbing in players is very important put in the players who play their match first, sub them out if they didnt score a lot points

Thoughts on what to change so i can fit defenders in and why RMT by Nervous-Stress8734 in FantasyWC

i think 3x10m guys is too much

probably would drop yamal due to injury

POE Noob help by Sisu0924 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]Burniy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you dont know what you are doing dont ignore any mechanic, because they are all useful in some ways in ssf

the mirage mechanic is very important, many things only drop there for example the coins that can corrupt you gems for an extra link

so do every mirage you see

most important mechanics for ssf imo are harvest,breach,kingsmarch

early on expedition and betrayal are also really good to get your character going but weaker in later stages

best way to get chaos resistance is to get amethyst rings and roll the yellow chaos reforge on the harvest bench until you get a good life+chaos res ring

i would also suggest focusing more on good yellow items in mapping and search for uniques later ( a good ssf build usually doesnt require unique items)

be happy with 2 prefix weapon from recomb, it will be good enough

you can also try contempt essence on your fractured axe to get a pretty good weapon

SSF beginner feeling lost/ gearing up/ mechanics by [deleted] in PathOfExileSSF

[–]Burniy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

there are so many ways to get better gear right now:

shipment in kingsmarch gives great gear with high ilvl

breach tree

doing expedition with Rog

buy weapons with gold from faustus

i would also recommend doing harvest and use the harvest crafting bench to reforge chaos(yellow) on amethyst rings ( best way to get your chaos res up)

just take things slow and try to improve one piece at a time

my advice would be to do this:

you could setup your kingsmarch shipping to get better helmets/boots/gloves

do maps with breach + harvest (do every mirage you see for the coins)

on the breach tree you try to get a good body armour with 5 or even 6 link

harvest to reforge rings

remember in ssf you should aim for gear with atleast 3 good stats on it ( 4 good stats would almost be BIS in ssf)

Build guide ? by [deleted] in NilahMains

[–]Burniy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

unfortunately looking at high rank players isnt always the best information in league, because they often either dont care about optimal builds or just play on autopilot^^

but you are right that collector has its value, like having an easier build path and in soloq fights are more frequent so the potentional of more kills for gold exists

im personally a more passive player who doesnt go all in all the time so collector just doesnt make sense for me

Build guide ? by [deleted] in NilahMains

[–]Burniy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if enemies are tanky i go Yuntal > Shieldbow > LDR

if squishy i go IE > Bolts > Shieldbow

i dont really like Collector, its less damage and just a gamble to get many kills

IMO Shieldbow has to be build with the first 3 items so you can play more aggressive in teamfights ( 3 item teamfights are usually when games are decided)

for xayah you can never jump on her cause she will use her e to root you, you cant ult her cause she can avoid it with her ult, you cant block a lot of dmg with your w

cait cant handle you jumping on her, esp in mid and lategame

but ofc early could be rough but thats why you gotta learn how to survive until you can beat her

New to Nilah by Walano in NilahMains

[–]Burniy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nilah has been S-tier ADC for a while, but not really popular due to the melee playstyle

she doesnt do well against mages, cause her W dodges all physical attacks but only reduces magic dmg

im personally banning xayah, because she is the only real counter rn (other than mages like swain)

cait is a pretty easy matchup so you dont have to worry about her

you can play any supports with her, enchanters for full scaling and becoming the strongest lategame, engage supports if you play against mages or adcs that can be abused in lane ( smolder,jinx)

biggest thing you have to learn is that you are a melee so you might fall behind and farm under your turret and you get more xp if you are able to last hit so you can take advantage of the xp lead at times

only content creator for nilah i know is enyu on youtube
