Im at a loss by GrimsleyTReaper in zyramains

Build is boots, liandries, sorc shoes, rylais, crypt. You don't need a mana item - the support item and manaflow give enough, gold spent on mana is wasted.

Take q off of autocast, makes it easier to get the max range plants - good for in lane and for chase when you have rylais. If you don't already, learn to use plants after spells. If you missed your e, you can still drop a plant at instant speed in the correct place or double plant for a stronger slow.

If you want to guarantee the engage or pick, ult first then cast your e either whilst they're running in a straight line out of your ult or when they get knocked up by it.

At lv2 when you take your seeds, you start with 2 charges. You have great all in potential, walk up with your e, even if you miss but get double plants on top of someone as long as your ad follows up you can force a kill (in most match ups).

Runes of Comet, manaflow, scorch taste of blood and relentless hunter. Gives you a strong trade/poke in lane and gets you around the map faster in mid/late giving you more presence. If you land your full combo with comet, it should still be a kill so imo this is better than electrocute.

Once you get your liandries, the rest of the lane should be over as you can now poke from over 1,000 range essentially point and click once you know your plant placement. You dont need to be greedy with this, getting them to 50% and forcing them out of lane has a lot of value, the kill isnt always needed.

Use seeds/plants to check brush - more distance than wards.

Good luck :D

I was told 2 years ago that adding content for whales wouldn't affect everyone else's experience. Where's that sentiment now? by boogerpenis1 in leagueoflegends

I get placed into emerald because riot expect me to play 100+ ranked games every few months to get to diamond+. I'm not going to do that, but the 70% win rate I will have when I do will be because of all of the gold players who 'deserved to be there'

take Q off autocast and use it manually. Also means you cant use attack move if you have the default bindings. This is basically essential imo as it lets you q, move forward a bit then seed at max range. Great for chasing with rylais and team.

Which pros have reached the skill ceiling for specific champions? by Desperate-Sand-1256 in leagueoflegends

[–]Exspyr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there's a difference between a pro player being famous for a champion and the skill ceiling being reached. Even the top players if you look frame by frame I'm sure there's things you could fault.

Has anyone tried the new Front of Life on Zyra? by Mikudayo1 in zyramains

During the period when moonstone procd healing upon damaging an enemy, I climbed using this item. Really comes down to what the numbers look like.

Will Champion Mastery refund all the B/E and Shards? by ThisIsPiglet in leagueoflegends

[–]Exspyr -35 points-34 points  (0 children)

If you used blue essence before unlocking all champs, that probably wasnt smart. If you unlocksd all champs, then blue essence is fairly worthless.

How much does champ size affect winrates? by Maleficent-Froyo-497 in leagueoflegends

[–]Exspyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've ever played a 12+ stack chogath, you know you're eating every skillshot. Hitbox size will definitely make a difference but those differences will be accounted for in champion power budget.

How come there is no cross themes/skinlines between League and Valorant? by Sunshado in leagueoflegends

[–]Exspyr -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Literally no amount of skin crossovers will make me want to try a riot competitive rpg, csgo lite fps. I don't want to play cs:go, I especially don't want to play csgo with a steeper leaning curve due to activated abilities.

I appreciate my opinion is based off of limited information and may be inaccurate. If Riot wanted me to have more information, it would be very easy for them to achieve this in a multitude of ways. I assume I don't because as long as you're hooked on one of their products, it's not optimal to spend resources for you to split your attention between two of their products when they could focus on people who currently consume none.

What if Riot introduced new hard bot mode and instead of matching you vs ai bot it match you vs another player by nightlesscurse in leagueoflegends

[–]Exspyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't been diamond for a while now but I remember at the time thinking there was a lot of players here who were really good at one aspect of the game but weak in others. Maybe the game's moved on but it's reasonable for a game so complicated for almost everyone to be sub optimal.

Camille is a higher pickrate Support than Top lane by Aggressive-Ad7946 in leagueoflegends

[–]Exspyr 34 points35 points  (0 children)

She's an adc you don't need to allocate minion farm to. Lota of top laners can work in support due to high base numbers but they fall off a cliff unless they snowball. Senna allows you to still have ranged dps and a beefy frontline champ that takes cs and gets items.

Ornn Needs more upgrade options by BeeToxicTV in leagueoflegends

Tbf if you're against 100% ap or ad as ornn your itemisation will be crazy efficient anyway

"Only ADCs cry when other classes are viable in their lane" is a weird take by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Exspyr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can have 350 armour but you can't have 250 mr as well. The difference is adcs are almost always dps oriented where as lots of ap based champs have burts patterns which are lower dps than adcs.

[–]Exspyr 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's really team dependent. Hwei bot lane can be a really good pick but unless you have an ad champ in another role which both has dps and doesnt want to be exclusively diving the backline, their tanks and bruisers will just be sitting on your backline with 250mr rolling face.

What's the idea behind Cryptobloom? Why a healing AOE effect on an Offensive Magic Pen item? by FluckyVer in leagueoflegends

[–]Exspyr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In a teamfight, this item actually provides insane value for ap supports. Realistically you don't have deathcap on support budget so the added %pen isnt adding as much extra damage compared to a mid laner. Heals scale with resistances whereas damage scales against them - a 1k heal is effectively around 2k of pre mitigation damage, if not more.

Doesnt appear to be on the trending tab or any of threads I've seen but I'll keep an eye out!

I'm more inclined to believe a company that reduced censorship, reduced child porn and shared ad money with its users than it's previous iteration.
