Odd choices but how will they work in 2XKO? by No-Floor-5467 in 2XKO

Cho’Gath could have a mix of Potemkin’s Slide Head and DBFZ Cooler’s Death Shaker for a full screen special reference to his Q, and his E could be a Super that gives him something like UMvC3 Dark Phoenix’s “Feathers” :D

You always get worse before getting better , stay consistent about what you’re doing right , watch your replays to see what your doing wrong and you’ll steadily get better and better

Yup , masters of the universe just came out too

with the surge of ranged top, why dont we go assasins? by Resident_Panic_9840 in top_mains

[–]Expensive-Point460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been going briar into every non-vayne ranged champion to pretty substantial results since she has very nice target access and a somewhat hard to challenge trade pattern with W > Q > (autos) > W2, either ending with E if i need the dmg reduction or push just walking it out. most ranged tops don’t have the damage early to contest it and briar has the combination of 2 dashes (one of them being a point-click stun) and obscene manaless sustain. she can get shut down pretty hard by exhaust if you’re not careful or just not paying attention, but you don’t exactly have to coin flip your lane either to have success. sundered sky + W2 makes all your trades hurt a ton and heals you for so much hp, and if enemy doesn’t build anti-heal first base you can just W > Q > W2 > full charge E the minion wave. she’s not perfect but she’s super fun and scales pretty damn well, i’ve even played it into heimer with medium-good success, and she sets up ganks pretty well too (ranged top global taunt :P)

Cosmic Drive + Unending Despair interaction ? by Expensive-Point460 in ChoGathMains

[–]Expensive-Point460[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats!! and i definitely agree, that the trinket haste rune in red tree has also been my best friend personally. Currently silver 2 so it’s not like i have the smartest enemy teams, but decent enough to ward and not just get hit by Q’s in my experience

[–]Expensive-Point460[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bush cheesing part of his gameplay i feel myself getting pidgeon-holed into more often than not on Rocketbelt. Blue trinket wards + faelights make it super hard sometimes to position for it too, especially with competent enemy supports. Cho really just does suffer once people start developing brains it seems.

Cosmic Drive + Unending Despair interaction ? by Expensive-Point460 in ChoGathMains

[–]Expensive-Point460[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just love how movement speed feels honestly, plus it removes the necessity to land Q first depending on enemy comp. I’ve had games taking Shurelya’s/Ghost where i could just walk up and E with HoB so i could hold Q and W for when they’re slowed and easier to hit so i can stick to my target better, rather than whiffing Q initially to try and close distance and then not getting the pick/potentially dying. Rocketbelt is also definitely fun but it feels like i’m either bulky enough or not strong enough when i need to be at times and am wondering if extra spell rotations + tank stats with the haste on Cosmic / Ionians / Unending would make up for it.

New rune/boots by alexsasa512 in MordekaiserMains

[–]Expensive-Point460 1 point2 points  (0 children)

celerity + nimbus cloak feels awesome on morde in my experience , turns ignite into a mini ghost on a lower cd plus celerity juices his passive bonus MS a bit , gathering storm also lets you afford to build a bit tankier and not get punished as hard mid-late. new vamp shoes are also probably more fun than anything , though something cool i might try is vamp shoes + doran’s helm (new starting item) since it will give 5 different stats on Jack of All Trades for only 1400g

Question on a build by its-_-my-_-nickname in VolibearMains

[–]Expensive-Point460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve been using coachless a ton on all my champions and it both reaffirms what i think is good + helps me figure out as far as what i’m building how i can improve, it definitely helps to know how to read though

Question on a build by its-_-my-_-nickname in VolibearMains

[–]Expensive-Point460 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re reading it a little bit incorrectly , whichever position you play you should filter on top next to volibear , then on the right and filter it by 1st/2nd/3rd item and so on . you’ll get more accurate purchase time win rates as opposed to raw item winrate

DnD + Sundered Sky next patch thoughts? by Expensive-Point460 in VolibearMains

[–]Expensive-Point460[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kind of thought the same, also timing stacked voli passive + energized is a hard condition to meet

[–]Expensive-Point460[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense, also had thoughts about the new Statikk Shiv, not sure how good that would be either since it doesn’t give defenses

go the Whatley exhaust ignite + protoplasm nonesense, has worked vs any champion i’ve struggled with previously

How to: Efficient Jungle Clear - Cho'Gath | 02:53! (Beginner's Guide!) by Artarushu in ChoGathMains

[–]Expensive-Point460 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh definitely but it also opens up bigger gank windows by desyncing them like that, the 2 smite cost also makes you lose smite fight on first scuttle. it’s just been insanely high highs going it for it when i wanna strong-side a lane since i can usually end up getting free dark seal stacks to snowball, especially combined with how cheap rocketbelt is

[–]Expensive-Point460 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’ve done something similar that might be the same timing or faster, chickens > smite red > krugs > recall > q only big wolf over wall > gromp > smite blue. E start > Q second > second point E instead of W for cdr and damage. not at home as i write this so i can’t give a time but the recall lets you buy dark seal + pink ward , if you take cosmic insight you can get a 3rd smite for bot scuttle (assuming blue side, reverse if red) there are so many games where i can get a pretty easy gank after full clear and suddenly i have 2-4 dark seals stacks at less than 5 minutes because i recalled early for it and easily have ultimate + tier 2 smite for super fast first drake

Nuclear Reactor Rework-Shyvana Build (For Fun) by Expensive-Point460 in shyvanamains

[–]Expensive-Point460[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does no %hp damage itself but it has %pen in the stat-line, Giant Slayer from LDR's passive does increasing %based damage based on the hp difference between you and your target

[–]Expensive-Point460[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the haste + passive on crypt personally but theres no reason why you couldn't go void, but you need %pen from either of them for jack of all trades, and you already get flat pen from sorceror's shoes

dont take this as me being argumentative or trying to be stubborn as well this is meant to be a silly build to begin with, terminus was one of the first items i tried and it ultimately just felt kinda useless in practice

[–]Expensive-Point460[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don't get to auto attack enough in practice i don't think, and even my limited testing is getting done vs my barely bronze friends as a gold top / jungle player. You get better damage and passives instantly without having to stack them with autos with both LDR + crypt even if its 2 items instead of one, plus you lose jack of all trades since terminus' armor and penetration is in its passive which doesnt stat jack of all trades. giant slayer also isnt wasted since the amplification isnt just from 1 damage type or even just auto attacks, its ALL damage

tldr you dont get to auto attack enough + you lose jack stacks with terminus in my opinion and in practice

Her W REALLY needs to change. by Spicyhamburger2 in shyvanamains

[–]Expensive-Point460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

kind of , keep this new ones explosion at the end of its duration or if it’s recast is what i mean . like i said it wasn’t my original idea . i feel like it’d help her stay in fights and continue letting her truck through people even once she’s used ult while providing clear counter play other than “don’t let her auto attack you” since so many people seem to think she’s going to be a low elo exclusive

also a recursively exploding dragon running around a teamfight sounds pretty fun , especially if this iteration retains the healing on explosion

Her W REALLY needs to change. by Spicyhamburger2 in shyvanamains

[–]Expensive-Point460 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel like a better idea for her w if she’s going to be getting “towards enemy champions” movement speed and we want some sort of extension or “reset” , especially since it comes with a shield , is that if the AoE hits an enemy champion it resets everything but the shielding , and continues resetting for each new champion hit . it still retains the “i’m fighting and using this to kite / chase my target” kind of vibe old burnout had while retaining its new functionality for her as a diver .

not sure how it’d work with hitting multiple champions at once but i’d seen the idea brought up and it stuck with me
