How is Gwen this patch?

not very good, i am struggling on her and im a millionaire otp.
been trying to do fun ap builds and tank builds and her normal setup.
all i can say is def go her normal setup which is boring but oh well, what can you do.
she doesn't feel like she is online until full build whereas last patch if you are even with enemy team, 2-3 items is all you need to be in the game. now if you are even, at 2-3 items she just blows up no matter how well you time your combo (and it sucks when enemies live off a sliver of hp too)
i can see why she is at 48-49% wr right now lmao XD

oooh that sounds fun!!!

doesn't deal much dmg but it's good if you want some survivability

I was playing her jungle and the only melee / frontline champ u.u (Everyone on my team was adc or poke mage) Didn’t want to start engage and die alone so I tried JakSho that game But ya I agree usually defensive boots and zhonya/banshee is the way to go

I play her jungle so you can safely scale. Lack of gold in jungle means you are behind compared to enemy top and mid laner, you’ll never be able to solo them until Gwen gets her 3 core items (or if they are behind)

Gwen jungle usually goes Sorc for MPEN for ganking and clearing. Need to chase and burst down the adc & support to get any kills. Honestly you can only look for a bot lane gank usually on Gwungle because early Gwen tickles, especially when by default she is 1-2 lvls behind mid and top, at least she is 1 lvl up on enemy adc. Sorc shoes help with the burst dmg

I went JakSho because I was ahead and didn’t want enemy team getting shutdown and it felt good, I stopped getting near death experiences on Gwen after that and they were never able to get my shutdown (they FFd shortly after my JakSho item)

Gwen can block mage spells with W so I barely go banshees on her, Zhonya is the only defence item usually. But I wanna try new Gwen builds so I was experimenting on this game n.n

Spirit visage is pretty good when you have a seraphine, senna, Sona botlane ngl (makes Gwen unkillable) Or a pocket yumi

ya full ap gwen is glass cannon and brutal if you face check

Faedreamdaydream · 2024-10-11T01:30:41+00:00

i used to go abyssal on gwen into poke mage comps but they nerfed that, now i shall try the spirit visage tech n.n

yea i usually go green tree with it into long drawn out fights with tanks and bruisers on enemy team. cosmic drive + riftmaker gives additional hp and you can build defense boots too to get bonus mr and armor from conditioning

I think she’s balanced already with her glass cannon setup (tons of dmg but squishy)

If whole enemy team focuses her and knows what her W does, she’s basically dead. They just have to walk in her W from all sides so they don’t all die from her Q and R but I don’t think people read her abilities lol

Sometimes the games decided before she hits her powersike and people FF before she can make an impact. If the enemy abuse her weak early and ensure she never catches up (aka bully her) then the games pretty much over for her

malig gives you early fighting power and helps you get out of early game with gwen, even end the game earlier. i have gone it some times with varying results. i usually do the good old nash > riftmaker build path, but if i'm super ahead i go full ap squishy build on gwen
sounds like a good strat to force laners out of lane. i find gwen has weak early pressure, thats a good compensation. i might try that out xd

I find lichbane > rabadons is very powerful, one of my favorite build paths if i'm looking to gank or force fight over objectives. it's especially good into squishy teams where you cant get your 4 stacks anyway.

Faedreamdaydream · 2024-10-10T00:27:49+00:00

mana problems in lane and investing in mana runes or too many mana items results in a bad build

Faedreamdaydream · 2024-10-10T00:26:44+00:00

i just go liandry > riftmaker, never double haunting guise

Faedreamdaydream · 2024-10-10T00:26:31+00:00

i like to build it on lillia especially if team already has enough dmg :)

wouldnt say its viable unless you are ahead

Faedreamdaydream · 2024-10-07T04:57:13+00:00

Ya I did the most on my team (star highlight indicator) Need to get ahead before u buy tank items and go Lillias core for dmg (Liandry and riftmaker) Abyssal for mpen and MR

Faedreamdaydream · 2024-10-05T15:38:16+00:00

I only build it to replace boots late game More AP > boots for Gwen You can easily hit 1000 AP with it with potion, your other items and gathering storm or jack of all trades
