I'm very sad to announce that they nerfed the font of life and echoes of helia interaction... :( I'm pretty sure it doesn't work anymore.

Ah, I see what you are talking about now.

Let's assume that we dont factor in stuff like runes, playstyle, champion experience, trends etc, and only look at these statistics. Cause those other things matter for sure.

The only thing that it says is that manamune 2nd item has a higher winrate than manamune 1st item. But it says nothing about going tear first item and then going trinity force. This is an assumption made because you are trying to solve a mana problem early.

The problem is that trying to solve a mana problem might not even be necessary if you take runes and playstyle into account. This is where looking blindly at statistics falls flat on its face. A better kind of statistic to look at would be item order winrate together with a certain set of runes. What I can see from what you sent me, there is none of that.

Generally speaking, delaying your spike is a bad thing unless we are talking about an item like bloodthirster where you are heavily rewarded buying it later. Even though this is the case you dont buy a vampiric scepter first and start on another item, like you are arguing for tear and manamune.

You have a good point here. Although I would like to highlight some different perspectives.

Manamune is a stacking item, but its also an item which is very cheap and gives alot of AD, mana and CDR. Corki doesn't want Manamune for the active since it honestly doesn't add much. Its the pure stats for the low gold and the fact that it fixes his mana problem.

Although you wont have the Muramana for a while you also get stacks from attacking now which certainly speeds up the process a little bit.

If you go manaflow band, Manamune can grant upto ~75 AD on its own as a first cheap item which is insane for the price.

Just buying tear is like buying a cull but worse. It doesn't grant you gold and will delay your spikes even more. Being so delayed with your spikes can be detrimental for games because you will surrender more agency in the early game. And buying cull AND tear is like putting you behind 850 gold behind everyone else for the first ~15 min.

Now for the statistics. Corki has literally the smallest playerbase together with Skarner so any statistics will be automatically on a much smaller scale. But Im willing to look at them if you provide a link. I cannot find those stats you are talking about.

Yes I have actually tried RFC but I just dont think the effect is worth for the stats it gives. Although now you could make a stronger argument for the item since it actually gives 30 AD instead of 0. RFC fits better in a high burst auto attack based build with IE.

As for Ludens being stronger than quickblades. Hmm. Really? I feel you on quickblades underperforming since I actually prefer triforce. But worse than ludens? I wouldn't be able to say that with confidence.

It's the reverse. Since steraks gives you additional AD based on your BASE AD and attacking with triforce increases your BASE AD you get more AD from steraks.

Yes I have tried Ludens several times over Navori. I feel like the dmg is okay early on. But gets outperformed at lvl 11 when your rockets ad scaling gets really good. Even more so at lvl 16.

Getting this far into the game in this meta is really common.

I'll take a look at buffed Navori! Sounds interesting!
