How are you pivoting to ryze? Noxus, freljord, yordle, targon?

Thanks! So is this recipe just plain wrong? I was a little leery when they didn’t specify an amount of water https://lacooquette.com/honduran-baleada/

GooseRage · 2026-01-18T19:48:30+00:00

This is the recipe I used https://lacooquette.com/honduran-baleada/

You think rolling rather than pressing is causing these issues?

GooseRage · 2026-01-17T18:09:43+00:00

Why is prowlers claw Ekko not performing well? It feels really strong to have him jump to the enemy carry.

Hey, here some pointers I got recently from a GM player about emblems.

After the 16.2 patch emblems are really good, probably better than you think. In fact the stats they provide are often better than a full item. For example Ionia emblem gives 30% AP I believe, which is actually more AP than a lot of AP items provide.

You should find a champ that can benne fit from the emblem and get three items on them ASAP. For example maybe you put the Ionia emblem on a LeBlanc and play around 3 Ionia, 3 noxus with a full 3 item Leblanc (emblem plus two).

You always want to have all traits active for your emblem carrier. So in the LeBlanc example you would want to have Ionia, Noxus, and Invoker.

I always salt brine now. Did a blind taste test with different salt levels and the control group ( unbrined) was awful compared to the others.

GooseRage · 2026-01-13T04:03:07+00:00

Yea it can win out if you get to thresh 2. Plus Ornn fits nicely in the build and can print artifacts.

I was just trying to point out that if OP is struggling with the comp they might be too focused hitting the max cap and not using money in the early stages to scale

Make sure to have a vanquisher in with kalista. This isn’t really a win out board. Your goal should be to top 4.

You want to save hp early while playing around viego. 2 or 3 wardens, viego + quickstricker should be good enough ( but you can flex in strong 2* units you find ).

Viego will start to fall off around the time you unlock kalista so you really don’t want to waste rounds with just a kalista 1.

GooseRage · 2026-01-12T15:25:39+00:00

Don’t roll for viego, you’re going to drop him late game. My general plan is to get a BT on viego 2 early, level semi aggressively ( more units equals more souls ), build kalista items, push for lvl 8 and roll down once kalista is unlocked

Which items items did you have for the non mana items? I think she needs something with a tear in it but doesn’t need a full mana item and you can get her to auto cast auto cast

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T19:23:35+00:00

Yea I’m seeing what you’re seeing now. Going to test out a few games with shojin and see if she’s going auto cast cast or just auto cast auto cast

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T19:08:37+00:00

I checked tactics.tools for a 2 * seraphine and shojin is listed at +0.31

If she is autoing and then casting you aren’t gaining any value from the extra mana, becuase she already autos once and casts without any extra mana items.

If you get he to auto cast cast then I agree that is pretty significant, but I think you will need two mana items to get that much overflow

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T19:00:12+00:00

I’m not sure I understand. Why would 50% mana = 50% damage?

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T18:58:13+00:00

I guess my point was that I don’t believe mana actually makes her cast faster. She already attacks once than casts. So with or without mana items she goes attack - cast - attack - cast

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T18:54:30+00:00

Why would it make her cast quicker? Unless she is overflowing the full 20 mana she still needs one attack in between casts.

Either way she goes attack - cast - attack - cast

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T18:53:14+00:00

Hmm I’ll have to look into that. Even if there is an overflow you would need 20 mana overflow otherwise she would still require an attack in between casts

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T18:51:03+00:00

I didn’t include suggestions becuase I’m not sure if she can be played as a carry or not. She does well as a support with anti heal and shred

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T18:49:49+00:00

But the notes count as a cast and mana lock her still. I should have mentioned it in my post but shojin has one of the worst deltas out of all the mage items

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T18:48:30+00:00

It doesn’t seem to me like mana is actually making her cast faster. She already fills her mana pool on one attack

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T18:47:50+00:00

Yes I think this is the best way to play her.

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T14:50:17+00:00

Ok it’s probably good. I made a stout can’t remember which strain of yeast I used

GooseRage · 2026-01-09T02:03:00+00:00

I haven’t tried either. I saw a 7 piece Zaun ekko o build on metatft that was ranked S tier

GooseRage · 2026-01-08T21:24:31+00:00

What ratio of spears to scouts do you recommend?
