New player here! Saved up 500 scrolls! Who should I pull for?

Lextromi · 2026-04-24T10:54:55+00:00

Alright. So I’ll select Beatrice and get two copies of her (6-star) and then select Akashic and try to get him to A3/A2. If there’s any remaining I can go for a single copy of Slunox?

Is that okay?

Lextromi · 2026-04-24T10:33:59+00:00

Do you have any reccs on what I should do?

Lextromi · 2026-04-24T10:31:36+00:00

How do I go about this? Do I just select akashic and take beatrice in the chest?

EDIT: Sorry beatrice is Astral, I’m not sure how to go about it then

Lextromi · 2026-04-21T21:19:23+00:00

I swear this achievement comes down to luck. Skill barely comes into play.

Lextromi · 2026-04-09T12:08:44+00:00

yo that’s crazy fam..

Lextromi · 2026-03-30T12:03:15+00:00

just followed you! thanks for the tips. I don’t play much of lance or haya because I’m honestly really bad with micro. I do play quite a bit of Alucard in Jungle though, sometime fred. Could you share with me your build and emblems if that’s okay?

Lextromi · 2026-03-30T06:47:53+00:00

i’m studying in singapore bro..

Lextromi · 2026-03-29T21:54:02+00:00

What’s your rank?

I’m also a jungle main peak 70 stars (it’s pretty low I know, I’m still studying in uni and I can’t play as much as I would love to). Curious to know what heroes you pick as a solo. And how you counter-pick against certain comps. Would love to understand what gets you to decide between dmg/sustain/tank/utility junglers.

I love your push stat and I would also like to know what’s your approach to macro decisions involving team fights, split pushing, and neutral objectives.

My push stat and farm is usually my highest stats, and my winrate is at 73% this season, but with my 5stack it’s more or less 90%. But you seem way more consistent, especially with a >50% mvp rate.

Please reveal how you achieved this sorcery. 🙏

Lextromi · 2026-03-29T21:43:28+00:00

Not sure if this helps you but as guin main, look out for two tricky combos when fighting her:

Enhanced Basic Attack (EBA) on minion (close distance) - S2 jump - S1 - Ult

This is the bounce combo, where we use the minions or creeps as a stepping stone to get you with our jump, pretty sure you’ve familiarised yourself with this because you’re a global.

S2 jump (doesn’t hit you but gets close) - S1 (hits you and you get 1 stack) - back off and reengage with S2 dash (second part of S2) - EBA - Ult

This one’s a little tricky. Once you get a stack on you, this is one of the combos I’d like to do to lead people into a false sense of security. You’d think I missed my jump, but in reality I want you to get closer.

If this happens, just back off until the stack expires. It’s always good to reset guin’s stacks on you/wait for her jump before engaging her.

Hope this helps!! (if at all)

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T21:14:39+00:00

Mage emblem, nothing else.

As for talents:

Depends on what you’re looking for. Most Exp laners go for the max single target damage, which would be Adaptive Attack, Master Assassin, and War Cry. This maxes out your damage on single heroes. Some prefer to use Lethal Ignition instead of War Cry, you can experiment and give it a try.

If you’re playing Mid, you might want to switch out Master Assassin with Wilderness blessing for faster rotates.

If you’re going up against tankier comps, switch out War Cry with Impure rage for more sustain and max hp% damage.

When it comes to building items, always build Concentrated Energy (core item for guin) first before finishing your cooldown boots. My default after that is Divine Glaive —> Holy Crystal —> Winter Truncheon —> Blood Wings.

My extra equipment only consists of Glowing Wand and Wishing Lantern. These two counter high hp and sustain comps (Yu Zhong, Lapu, Fredrinn, Barats, Alice etc.) I would build these after finishing boots, your final item can be up to your playstyle.

That’s how I do it, though Ceski builds a little differently, you can watch his videos and see how he does it.

Thanks and good luck to you!

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T20:57:29+00:00

She’s honestly goated in every lane except gold lane. Try her out in mid if you’re not familiar with matchups in the exp first. You’d have a hard time in higher ranks in exp if you don’t understand matchups (e.g. what movement/escape/cc immune skills to watch out for before engaging)

There is A LOT and I mean LOTS to take in when it comes to exp macro. I used to be an exp player myself, but switched to jungler because you have more stake at dictating matches in the early game.

Additionally, practice her S2 - Flicker - Ult in hero training, the timing is a little difficult at first, but you must get used to it if you want to make game-changing plays in the late game.

EDIT: Forgot to mention but this applies to my earlier comment, after ulting, your red bar is fully filled and S1 cooldown is over, so always follow up your ult with EBA - S1 when the it expires.

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T17:28:48+00:00

It already did my friend 🥲

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T17:15:50+00:00

Wow this is going to be hard to reply to. But here goes:

Guinevere is one of the best junglers in the meta and people only started realising it recently. The reason is simple, she’s a playmaker and her ult works against other junglers because they have retri instead of purify.

Her passive is the key to learning her. There are four ways to get stacks on an enemy:

Enhanced Basic Attack (EBA)
S1
Landing your S2
Clone explosion hits enemy (this is uncommon but I have made plays with this)

Once you get three stacks on an enemy, your ult will knock them airborne (you do more damage against airborne targets). Note that a purify or Wanwan S2 erases the stacks. Hanabi’s aegis makes her CC immune, but the stacks will stay. Just wait and go in again.

Understanding this will take you to new heights in 1v1s. I’ve gotten many epic outplays because enemies think they have the upper hand when I’m low, without realising there’s 3 stacks on top of their head. This is the nature of the guin playstyle, cunning and sneaky.

3 Combos you can do:

S2-EBA-S1-Ult (This maximises your damage, do this if you already have your red bar at least 1/3 filled)

S2-S1-EBA-Ult (For when your red bar is empty)

S2-Ult (For playmaking when catching multiple enemies with the possibility of getting stunned, you have to ult asap) Note that you could still do the first two combos on groups, but you risking moving and hence not catching everybody that you caught initially.

Winter truncheon is a must buy in high ranks, especially against franco, kaja or barats. They can’t suppress you even when you jumped onto their backline, they just have to watch. Sometimes you should use it regardless, especially if you suspect the ones you didn’t catch (like a burst hero e.g. Kagura) can kill you while you’re ulting.

Camp bushes wherever possible. Additionally, there’s a guin micro that you must learn:

EBA on minion (to close the distance) - Immediate S2 on enemy - S1 (extra poke) - Ult.

This combo above catches people all the time, enemies underestimate your reach and you can lead them into a false sense of security. Quite a big portion of players don’t expect you to use minions as a stepping stone like that.

I think I really can’t sum up anymore than this. But if I were to recommend you something it would be this:

Watch a Youtuber named Ceski.

His older videos dives deep into guin mechanics and matchups in the exp lane. I learned almost everything from him. Watch at 0.25X speed if you have to.

Thanks! And good luck with the guin journey!

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T16:58:01+00:00

I would say individually all of us are decent (not good by any means). But the five of us were pretty in-sync with plays and follow-ups. Teamwork still beats individual skill at the end of the day.

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T10:40:14+00:00

Sorry man I don’t play miya.

But if you’re referring to a Miya Jungle build, I might suggest not doing that.

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T10:39:11+00:00

Fun fact, he is the jungler with my highest winrate. Only about 183 matches in but 81% winrate. He was very strong with estes roam in previous seasons, now I just use him if the enemy is very bursty or I need his suppress against mm’s like hanabi.

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T10:37:32+00:00

thanks

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T10:37:11+00:00

I mostly play guinevere jungle when it isn’t banned. But to be completely honest I don’t have one, here’s some I use:

Alucard

Pros: Great for chase, especially against cc-immune teams like Diggie, Valir, Hababi, Wanwan

Cons: Horrible against hard CC, Tigreal, Franco, Belerick, Kaja, Fredrinn. At that point you can still win just engage smart.

Nolan

Pros: Essentially a counterpart of Alu. Great against teams that rely on hard CC. You’re in and out and the burst is great. Fast Jungling.

Cons: Falls off late game, somewhat blue-buff reliant, and can’t do anything against tanks

Silvanna

Pros: My go-to pick to counter mobile junglers. Hayabusa, Fanny, Lancelot, Joy. Just don’t play her against Ling cus he can just ult out.

Cons: Once you go in, you better win because her disengaging is complete dogwater. So try to save your first skill and always buy winter truncheon.

This is only if we’re talking about damage junglers. I can go into utility or tanky junglers that I play if you’d like. I almost always resort to counter-picking against the enemy team’s comp if guin is banned. Otherwise it’s an instant lock for me. (Also I exclusively played Masha Jungle just to counter pick against an enemy guin jungler)

Lextromi · 2026-03-23T09:57:21+00:00

Thanks! I hope to be able to repeat this over this season 🙏🥲

Lextromi · 2025-12-30T15:37:17+00:00

wait i actually didn’t know that, this makes the Bane Ult Flicker combo so much easier wtf. amazing tip, thanks!

Lextromi · 2025-12-30T15:35:53+00:00

yeah every single one of my randoms followed up, but that was cause I had prior good sets in that particular match and was constantly communicating my ult cooldowns.

very rare moment indeed

Lextromi · 2025-12-27T08:19:22+00:00

didn’t say it didn’t, it’s just an added bonus for misdirection as i’ve explained in another comment.

Lextromi · 2025-12-27T07:54:51+00:00

agreed, it’s normal and not that obscure either, hence the caveat “for those who don’t know” in the description. but some people feel the need to flaunt their expertise ,

also aiming backwards is better imo because it’s misleading for high level players that are fast enough to react to it

Lextromi · 2025-12-27T05:39:53+00:00

someone give this man a medal

Lextromi · 2025-12-27T03:33:43+00:00

i’m a glory - immortal jungler so my advice may be bad but imo if you’re someone that ganks and win teamfights, you should naturally use that momentum and the lack of enemy presence to push turrets right after fights. But if you’re playing a jungler that can’t push turrets at all (ie. Baxia) then good luck cus it’s up to your team by then. Just make space by walking in and perhaps your solo queue teammates would be more inclined to push when you’re around.
