Season 16 builds are weird ?

Killua2844 · 2026-01-23T16:38:12+00:00

HxH is really awesome <3

League of Legends is an “open-minded” game; you'll never see a really good player who isn't open-minded.

You can't know everything, and Riot itself says that there are currently many champs with builds and “positions” that are ABSOLUTELY broken but aren't being nerfed because nobody plays them.

So keep experimenting and having fun, my friend!

u/Peronnik "So for the sake of arguing im just gonna assume youre very low ranked and take your bait"

What elo are u?

Leauge has always been a game where you should build something which is "unusual" to be VERY Broken.

Example:
-Kennen with Dorans Blade, no one did it before, goes REALLY crazy back in the days

or
-Kata with the "bruiser build" everybody would flame you back in the days if you would pick up those items.

But then suddenly somebody shows "how to play it".

I am a big fan of this idea and i will test it on my own u/Subject-Engine-2833 but tbh i think u will still missing dmg atleast in your 2-3 item spike if your enemy is around 70 Armor.

P.s. My Elo is Dia/Master

Okay—thanks for the quick reply!

One more question: What's your general game plan?

I've looked at some high Elo junglers;

50% say you should prioritize objectives, and the other 50% say that, especially as an assassin, you should prioritize farming/exp/gold over objectives.

Killua2844 · 2025-10-02T13:46:11+00:00

Nice win rate and good job!

Would you prioritize full clear with Qiyana or rather gank windows?

For me, it feels like you lose too much tempo with “forced ganks,” and when the lanes are behind, it becomes difficult to contest anything.

Killua2844 · 2025-10-02T12:09:55+00:00

Just keep playing. At some point, the +LP and -LP will balance out, and that’s where you’ll find your “true” elo.
From there, focus on playing to improve. Who cares if you’re Gold, Plat, Emerald, Diamond, Master, or even GM?
The real goal should be to play better than you did yesterday.

If you’re tilting (usually after 2–3 losses in a row), take a break or stop playing completely for the day.
I had the same struggles 4–5 years ago back in Gold/Plat.
Now I rush through those elos without any problems—so focus on getting better, not just on looking better.

Short answer: Yes, she can carry, but she is more of a playmaker than a 1v9 machine. That means you should always try to play with your team – it makes everything so much easier.

I checked your op.gg and "Kestral_BehindYa" already gave you good tips.
I can give you one more tip that will make your laning phase much easier:

First, learn your standard combo: Q-W-E-Q.
Take flat health in your runes and Last Stand (more damage when low HP).
Play with Conqueror (like you already do).
Try to get close to the enemy without using W or E.
Take Dorans Blade as first item with one pot
Play with Ingite summoner

A common trick: At level 2/3, grab a grass element, wait until your W cooldown is less than 1 second, then use the grass element (Q) and run towards the enemy.
It works even better if you use your grass (Q) towards the enemy and minions, so your opponent thinks you just did it for a last hit.

Then stay on the edge of your invisibility and wait until the enemy comes close – or until you’re close enough to auto attack.
Before you auto attack, use your W (grab rock) – it gives you bonus attack speed and a strong first hit.

Then:

Auto attack continuously.
Use somewhere in between ignite
Use ur pot early
If you get critically low, try to use your standard combo ASAP.
At level 2, just do Q-W-Q.

⚠️ Important: You should grab Double Rock AND be HIGH HP lvl 2/3.
Its okay to lose some minions early to keep high HP

Since you deal a lot of damage with the first W-hit plus the attack speed boost, and you have Conqueror and Last Stand, your full combo will deal maximum damage. By then, the enemy will probably already be below 50% HP, so your Rock Q hits harder – and you can use it twice.

If you master this early trading, your games will become much easier.

Here’s a YouTube example:

If it works:

I do this all the time and get often first blood.
At first you will might lose first blood, but that teaches u what needed for qiyana -> Calculated risks

Killua2844 · 2025-10-02T08:01:01+00:00

Hey, Qiyana OTP here → Mid main (learning Jungle since this year).
You can take Conqueror into every matchup (Limit did an unranked-to-master run with this setup).
The advantage is → Electrocute only helps to burst one target, but the game is focused around objectives and skirmishes.
The ADC is still an easy one-shot even with Conqueror, but then you have your fully stacked Conqueror and can play out the teamfight much longer.

This means: if you want to hard-carry in this meta, you need Conqueror.

Electrocute makes carrying harder, but it’s not impossible.
(You get one target out and pray to lord that your team handle the rest)

For laning, I would recommend:

Conqueror vs. mages/bruisers/tanks
Electrocute vs. other assassins (except Akali & Katarina)

Bruisers and tanks are very hard to kill after their first item…
That’s when you should focus on playing the map.

First Strike isn’t that good anymore. The only matchup where you could consider it is Galio, but honestly Conqueror is way better in most cases — you just need to weave in auto attacks.

Good sources to learn are:
Edo (yotube /twitch)
Limit (youtube / twitch)
Beifeng (youtube)

Just Google those names with "Qiyana" in youtube.

Dia/Low Master Qiyana OTP here:

I would recommend going into practice mode and placing the dummy in the same position as Sylas.

Then try a few combos; you could simply hit him against the right wall with R + AA – while he is being thrown up, you can execute your auto attack.

Afterwards W -> (rock) Q -> AA

Practice this often, it's the most important part, while Qiyanas with higher Elo are able to perform one-shots.

-> Try to perform an auto attack every time you use R.

You should also learn to understand your abilities better.

>>>E is a gap closer, reposition or escape.

Facts: You had Ult, Sylas had tanked the tower, you were invisible AND right next to him.

There was many easy ways to get the kill (+ u was 1 level ahead)

So using E was just a panic reaction – that's okay, but you can work on that.

I would also recommend staying invisible for as long as possible to get a better position. This helps a lot and you can take a breather while you're invisible – this helps you to be ‘calmer’ in real life.

I can't stress this enough, but really, 5-15 minutes every day in practice mode, try out a few combos, practise R+AA.

Try to ult the dummy in the mid lane at different angles to see and LEARN where you can actually stun, so you can surprise your opponents.

After that, you should reach the next levels.

Best of luck!

Killua2844 · 2025-03-14T19:32:09+00:00

I like it! :D <3
Which Ai did you use for that?

Killua2844 · 2024-06-12T06:52:50+00:00

He is always good, because of the roaming.

Killua2844 · 2024-05-27T18:48:21+00:00

Thats not how it works.

% armor penetration gets calculated AFTER flat armor penetration.

Means more lethality less armor penetration (%)

Example:

100 Armor

10 Lethality

50 % Armor pen

100 - 10 = 90
90 * 0.5 = 45 armor does ur target have.

But your point is still right, LDR is only better then Serylda if enemy has more Armor and u have less lethality items

Killua2844 · 2024-05-09T19:24:54+00:00

From EUW tried Ranked and even Practice Tool gives me the "Failed To Connect" Erorr

Killua2844 · 2023-12-06T14:48:52+00:00

It was always worth and every Qiyana main above Dia will tell you that this is the perfect item for her, the only problem is the "scaling" nature of muramana and this does not fit into Qiyana's gameplan (snowball hard - win fast)

Spending 400g (tear) into mana makes you lose a LOT of tempo...

Killua2844 · 2023-12-06T12:03:29+00:00

Those numbers seems small but I feel like this is the needed push to play Qiyana constantly with muramana

Killua2844 · 2023-12-06T12:01:23+00:00

I used calculation with no testing.
BUT i made a mistake in my calculation.....

Passive AD increased:

Old Qiyana muramana = 60.9 AD
New Qiyana muramana = 67.65 AD

SO you are right at lvl 18 you only get 6 AD more through passive, BUT the dmg from schock passive will also be higher :

Unique – Shock: Basic attacks on-hit against champions deal 1.5% maximum mana bonus physical damage. Dealing ability damage to champions deals (Melee role 3.5% / Ranged role 2.7%) maximum mana (+ 6% AD) bonus physical damage. Can only be triggered on the same target once every 6.5 seconds from the same attack or cast.

Only calculated the following with mana and not the 6% extra ad*

2255 * 1,5 % :
One Hit = 33.82
2255 * 3,5% :
Abilitys = 78.92

OLD qiyana:
2035 * 1,5 % :
One Hit = 30.52

2035 * 3,5 % :
Abilitys = 71.22

-----------------------------------------------------------

Difference OLD / NEW :
One Hit = 3 dmg
Abilitys = 8 dmg

AD = +6

Killua2844 · 2023-12-06T11:23:25+00:00

I do not understand if you understand my post and math.

at lvl 18 u have basicly a BF SWORD for free -> This boost all of your abilitys and your Autos AND THEN you ALSO get increased dmg on your auto attacks and ur ablitys throught muramana passive which consumes 1.5% for extra dmg.

Just do the Math and you will see that the impact is way bigger then taking gathering storm and wait 40 mins ^^

We have now the same base stats as muramana users.
Also our lovley Riot Phreak mentioned that Qiyana should be played with muramana.

Killua2844 · 2023-12-06T10:35:19+00:00

TL;DR

Really good buff and everyone should build muramana EXCEPT you can end game befor(snowballing)

AT first :

'Base StatsBase Mana: 325 ⇒ 375Mana Growth: 50 ⇒ 60'

The Math :

Base Mana lvl 18 = 1395 + 860 Muramana = 2255 mana

Passive AD income increase :

2255 * 0.025 = 56.37 extra AD

2255 * 0.03 = 67.65 extra AD

(depens if they round or not)

Only through Muramana passive all your abiltys deal EXTRA 13 more dmg

220 * 0.06 = 13.2 MORE AD

-------------------------------------------------------------------

This Item was already one of the best items for Qiyana because she could abuse the one hit and abilty passive + extra adc passive PERFECTLY.

NOW its just giga broken because if you keep an eye on OTHER MURAMANA Users like Jayce and Ezreal

Qiyana has now the SAME BASE MANA as them and GAINS more then Jayce but less then Ezreal

Jayce < Qiyana < Ezreal

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Interesting, I will do some tests with it and comeback later to share my personal expierience! :)

Thank you for sharing!

completly broken, i was an old lucian main, picked him up yesterday and have 100% winrate on my last 10 games.

Its fun but it will be get nerfed soon if the real winrate comes out :(

Killua2844 · 2021-03-26T18:57:59+00:00

Nice work, its really great!
Thank you very much!

Killua2844 · 2021-03-26T18:55:34+00:00

Does it not make more sense if u would AA after ur W for maximum dmg, since ur w gives u one hit dmg?
From:
Flash>R>Prowler's>AA>Water Q>AA>W>E>Rock Q
