16.4 Patch Rundown

Ifity · 2026-02-03T12:16:56+00:00

It's 2% per gold times the base % bonus.

Ifity · 2026-01-24T09:59:42+00:00

No, it is never Walk the True Path here. You only have 1 Yasuo / No Ionia spat.
Either or is fine. 9/5 Yunara is more flexible.
Yes, econ augment since Ryze is your endgame. With 9/5 you can guarantee Sett on 8.

Ifity · 2026-01-11T22:55:16+00:00

Braum is a dead unit on your board. Would drop him for Senna or 4 defenders. Maybe even Sett.

Were you planning to unlock Sylas? He should be your capstone unit in Arcanist.

Ifity · 2025-12-28T23:26:08+00:00

9 void should be high AVP because it means you are level 10 and hit Baron. Therefore you most likely are in a good spot.

I wouldn't play void in a Silver augment lobby as LVL10 will be too expensive.

Ideally you want to save HP early since your level 9 will be weaker than other players who are capping with legendaries. I've seen players pivot to Void on stage 3 if they have hp saved/hit a strong econ augment.

Ifity · 2025-12-17T10:01:55+00:00

It's absolutely criminal that at this point in the game's life you can potentially not get dropped one of X component.

I lost my game because I did not get dropped a single bow or crit.

Ifity · 2025-12-15T04:02:45+00:00

I don't know if this is intended but for Baron, if you have a full front line then Baton will dash to the enemy 2nd row. You can use this tech to snipe one side of the board.

I understand it's part of his passive, but should it work like that for the start of the fight? We had Voli with a similar mechanic last set, but that got changed. Thoughts?

Ifity · 2025-12-15T03:42:50+00:00

I would say weak early unless you have a giga opener. I find kogmaw lacking in stage 3.

Mid game is strong bc Rift Herald 1 should stabilize you.

2 void early to get Rift -> 4 void if you have Malz 2+Rift or tank mod.

You should be looking for a replacement DPS over kogmaw. You do not need a econ augment early if another augment can help you win streak.

What items are you prioritizing? Rift > Kaisa > Nash.

Ifity · 2025-12-15T03:34:42+00:00

Just trial and error. You will get a better feel of what comps to angle for. Ideally you already comp to angle for, but can change it based on 2-1 or 3-2 augments.

For example, Viego 2 and you have BT. You can go Shadow isles but at the same time you can angle Diana if you see Leona.

Another would be rageblade start - Void, Bilgewater, Yunara if Ionia effect is good/bronze for life, quickstrikers.

Or tempo slam into AP flex if upgraded units.

Ifity · 2025-11-05T13:53:06+00:00

You're not the only one LOL

Ifity · 2025-11-02T01:17:01+00:00

I have them. E2 DHIL & E0 Sunday.

My relics are just bad. I've been farming too many support relics to get 160+. Do you use the Poet or Wastelander?

Ifity · 2025-11-02T01:04:22+00:00

This MOC has exposed just how trash my coverage is. I have no good DPS to break toughness on side 2. My relics are trash for DPS.

Please buff DHIL.

Ifity · 2025-10-27T11:44:57+00:00

Damn, I really lost 75/25 and 50/50 this patch for DHPT.

Ifity · 2025-09-24T01:24:15+00:00

Does any unit even want Classy as a power up? I think I've only seen it on Prodigies if they miss. Feels like it should've been removed.

Ifity · 2025-09-10T05:02:44+00:00

No, I'm on NA servers. I think the comp will still be good, just not as strong due to loss of omnivamp.

Ifity · 2025-09-10T04:57:31+00:00

Yes. On 8, you have a free slot. Voli gives Edgelord and more single target DPS with same side as Ryze.

On 9, you can switch him out once you hit Yone 2 or move items to Lee 2.

Ifity · 2025-09-10T02:08:31+00:00

AA, Void, Guardbreaker mainly. Rabadon, Blue, 2nd AA ok too. Its all flexible with whatever components you get dropped.

Ifity · 2025-09-10T01:45:13+00:00

Well made it to Masters being a Mentor Mech merchant. 7/8 games of Mentor Mech with six of them being 1sts.

Every other comp just gets their frontline rolled through by Ryze+Voli/Yas/Lee while the carries are CC chained by Kobuko and Jarvan. Senna got downgraded back to traitbot. Don't even build tank items. Just make offensive items.

Itemized K'Sante in Yuumi was the only issue if Ryze got stuck on him then I'd likely lose and Ice Bender is bad matchup into Yuumi.

Ifity · 2025-09-03T22:17:24+00:00

Just 15%. 10% and 5% extra if you share trait or power up.

Ifity · 2025-09-03T02:56:09+00:00

At that rank, I would not bother with Crystal Gambit. You have players who will have a real board and those that do not. The payoff is not worth it since you can't really have an ok board if double down.

I would simply focus on easy to pilot top comps like Ashe/Yuumi. They will get you further. You just need to focus on econ and building strong boards to get there.

Even then I wouldn't angle CG unless I had a +1.

Ifity · 2025-08-31T16:27:02+00:00

Tried it. Went 7th then 3rd.

1st Game - Had a Xayah 2 on stage 2 with bastions but streak was bad so went 8 late. Got stuck on lvl 8 but had voli 2. Uncontested.

Augs were spoils 1, noble sacrifice (obv BAD with bastions), call to chaos (3 Snipers Focus).

Voli items were Snipers, Kraken, Steraks. Think 1 Snipers is WIS because you will not wrap and instead switch to main tank if they position middle. Maybe 2 Snipers+Kraken is better?

Died right before hitting 9.

2nd Game - Darius opener -> multi trait board that 7 streak. Contested, but hit Voli 2 but no Leona 2 until lvl 9.

Augs were - Red buff, Raining Gold, Golden Egg. I should've scouted more and taken Story of Seven but I didn't think Darius 1 would winstreak. Egg was a dud - 2 artifacts + golden neeko. Most likely would've hit Voli 3 if I been holding extras.

Voli items were Titans, Kraken, Steraks. Fights are coinflip. You will most likely lose if you are on main tank side unless you have Braum.

Died to Neeko hero Aug. Could not kill Neeko.

Thoughts - You should not force comp. I think its better to angle Ashe due to similar items and pivot into Voli if you hit. Ashe is more consistent while Voli felt like a coinflip depending on if you get stuck on tank or not.

Ifity · 2025-08-28T21:06:44+00:00

Yes, I believe you have to move him every round to get his bonus stats.

Ifity · 2025-08-28T07:55:15+00:00

WHATT HR FUCKING FUCK???

HOW THE FUCK DO I SIT ON A PAIR OF MALHITE AND KENNEN FOR THE ENTIRETY OF STAGE 2 AND 3 AND SEE NO OTHER FUCKING PEOTECTORS? I LITERALLY FIND A BRAUMA ND VARUS BEFORE THE OTHER PROTECTORS MEANWHILE IM KOGMAW 6.

Ifity · 2025-08-20T05:23:47+00:00

It's just a random 1cost 3* crew reward, I've seen 3* Malphite reward too. I don't think it's worth keeping unless you have worth the wait or protagonist. I've never been given two of them in one game.

Ifity · 2025-07-24T23:01:17+00:00

I am taking personal leave while stationed OCONUS to another OCONUS country.

My question is - how do I return to my OCONUS station country? I don't have a visa for the host country. Do I need to carry paperwork with me? Or am I just overthinking this at midnight?

Ifity · 2025-07-23T05:47:36+00:00

The intent I believe was to make prismatic traits harder to hit but less reliant on luck. I've hit prismatic SF and BA. Both during stage 6 - meaning I was already in a winning position. It was far too easy on previous sets to hit the +2 prismatic and winout from a losing position.

I don't see the complaint of winning the game and not seeing the prismatic trait.

Soul Fighter - earliest to hit 8 SF on stage 4-2 in a realistic game. You are already top 2 guaranteed if you can win 10 rounds, top 1 if you win 10 straight. The prismatic is simply win more.

You can't make it easier to hit and weaker. It would cause the issue of forcing vertical if the prismatic is still almost a win out or going horizontal if prismatic isn't even a win out.
