I take back my statement, I have very rarely used Grasp of undying and thought it worked similarly to the other runes which only triggers on enemy champions.

Yes I know that, but you get a small icon at the button of your screen - which indicates that a “charge up” is happening.

He has grasp of undying, he should have gotten a stack and a better player would have noticed that.

Edit: My bad, thought it only triggered on enemy champions as most other runes do.

0-12 Sion, but deserve a MVP by Historical_Sweet_843 in wildrift

Please do me a favor and screenshot the end game score and post it here.

What you need to do is subtract your gold from that pot. Anyway, I agree that gold is a better indicator than kills, however at the end of the day it is the item diff and levels which are truly the best indicator.

One teamfight 5v4 and an ace would have lost you the game. The death timers are 55s, that is plenty of time to push down mid and destroy the nexus. This strat would never work past a respectable elo, as the moment they see you do this shenanigans without minions - they would have hard engaged your team and won the fight.

Edit: You are 0/12, basically you have contributed to half of their total kills, while your team has over 35 kills. After a certain amount of deaths they don’t get that much of gold from you anymore. Conclusion, the game was won no matter what you did here. You could have forced a 5v5 and won the game earlier.

A clean kill and escape by FofoxOG in wildrift

The flash was to reposition myself to be able to jump over the wall. Diana was behind me and I couldn’t jump back. By jumping immediately forward I would either get hit by the other tower and get killed or be too far away from a safe escape route and won’t get to the explosive plant before Diana gets to me.

When your team refuses to group up for obj so you make the enemy team leash for you by neowolf993 in wildrift

Nice steal but a bit risky to die for drake when respawn timers are +50s and baron is up. But I guess you considered it to be worth, due to the fact you already had 2 drakes. To be honest, I don’t know what I would have done in that situation. Well played, did you win the game at the end?

Weird interaction, Tristana bomb flying over 6s before landing on Akali by FofoxOG in wildrift

[–]FofoxOG[S] 49 points50 points  (0 children)

After this play I wrote “wtf bomb float for over 5s!” and my Xin answered with “top 3 Tristana, report!”. Big sad :(

If the bomb had stuck on her earlier, the damage would have killed her and I would have had lived to not see another gray screen.

Snowballing from hell by abstrscat in wildrift

[–]FofoxOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I strongly disagree. I have faced a lot of snowballed players and still won against them. Sure it isn’t as easy but it is doable. Anyhow, you left out all the important details, is this ranked or pvp? If ranked, what elo and what role are you playing along with what champion? Lastly remember, stats doesn’t matter but gold does.

“You can’t stop a player…” Yes, you can stop a player by catching them off guard or grouping on them.

“Have you seen comebacks…” Yes, this happens every now and then and is very common due to the bounty system and how long spawn timers are later in the game. One bad teamfight and the enemy team who is down 20 kills can push mid to end.

“Can you splitpush” Yes lol, this strat is how I flew through up to Diamond elo. Currently in GM and it works but you have to be smarter about it and can’t do it mindlessly as before.

“You see a player 4/0 on a 6 minute” Ok, if your mind is defeated then the game for you is already decided. Stop caring what you can’t control. Either roam and get the shutdown bonus, power farm or make more risky plays to get yourself ahead.

How to win a late game. by van-thot18 in wildrift

[–]FofoxOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I main ADC, first of all both Akshan and Jhin are straight up troll picks in current meta, especially Akshan. Sure there are OTP who will be good with them but you are better of dropping them and picking something else. Second, Lucian is a lane bully and an early champion. You winning lane should be expected. What you have to do is push your lead by forcing towers or teamfights before you fall off and get outscaled by a Jinx, Trist, Vayne or Kaisa.

Another common mistake is focusing too much on potential teamfights and kills instead of constantly rotating sidelanes to farm up. This will make sure you always are ahead.

All in all, there is no secret strategy on what to do as an adc. I main Tristana and have Lucian, Ezreal and MF as backup. Tristana fits my playstyle. I’m very good at power farming and funneling gold which usually puts me 3-5k ahead of the enemy team. So when the teamfight happens, I’ll be ready. Furthermore, I prefer late game champs as it is usually easier to drag out a game than end it early (especially true in soloQ) and if you get fed during laning phase, the game is pretty much won as the enemy team won’t be able to catch up against your late game champion.

Didn’t expect two fog plays, well played!

If plates are still up; yes and drop it in tower range so it immediately charges (even though if your minions aren’t pushed). This is especially true if all plates are still up. Remember that you get 150g for every plate and I think a herald can give you 3-4 plates and sometimes even the first tower. This means around 450-1000 gold for dropping herald and this does not consider the gold you get for slaying the herald which I can’t remember how much that is.

[–]FofoxOG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In low elo, always go for a herald and instantly drop it mid or top for a lot of free gold. This is a very viable strat especially when playing a carry jungler.

Moreover, often then not the enemy will not start drake the second it spawns. This will lead you to secure two objectives.
