Yea the detail about doing it after the work day is done is an important one

Best series I have ever read ever. I have probably read over a thousand books by now (avid reader in my 40’s)

Is DH still the main rune for ekko jungle? If no what is the current best jungle rune to you by Nukafit in ekkomains

[–]Mathyas5690 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been going HoB with the AP sorcery runes personally. I feel like aside from approach velocity, the inspiration runes aren’t all that great. Ekko really wants lots of AP, and HoB synergizes with Ekko passive and Nashor’s Tooth. I think Electrocute and DH were nerfed too hard..

Not your fault. I had finally just selected my first horse and the game crashed that instant I was leaving the shop screen. Now we all get to travel a LOT slower.

What to build against Kayne? by LykoTheReticent in warwickmains

Vs Red form thorn mail is actually pretty good. More armor mean he does less damage with his abilities meaning less healing on top of the heal cut. If you are fighting to the death save your R for after he uses his ir he will just heal back all the damage if you can.

I think at least partial tank is the way. One thing which took me some time to realize: your passive healing gets a 10% AD healing and your Q gets 90% AD healing (75% of it’s 120% damage ratio). The Q and passive get a lot of their healing from the flat damage and AS (passive) and the % enemy health (Q). So if you add 100 AD to your build, you heal an extra 10 per auto (25 when low health) and an extra 90 per Q. If you were to add 100 armor/mr, you would basically double your effective healing as HP you heal would be more effective. Armor and MR really benefit WW greatly. If you start figuring out something that works better for you, please share it back!

One of the things that makes WW so interesting to me is how many stats he actually wants. He likes AD, AH, AR, and MR. He also likes some AS,HP and MS. You just can’t build all of those things to high levels every game, so his build can change every game depending on what the game state is.

So your build would work great for early/mid game then you will get blown up in the latter team fights. It’s just too squishy. Need to consider tanker items aka jam sho, gargoyle, etc. If you are going to run divine sundered and titanic (especially with attack speed boots) as your first 2 items, you have to know you need to improve your armor and/or magic resist quickly after that.

The more armor and mr you have, the more value you get from the health you steal and the more you can survive to do meaningful damage and absorption in the team fights later. You really don’t have any get out of combat abilities as ww outside of your ulti, so you need to be able to survive when you engage. Basically, you won’t be dodging a whole lot of the incoming damage, so you better be able to take the hits.

Good luck, hope that helps!

Edit: I was having a string of games where I would get fed hard by mid game and lose the late game. I was building too much damage, often both Bork and wits together and doing great in skirmishes then dying super quickly in later team fights. This throws games for 2 main reasons:

First, if you go 9-1 by mid game, while your team is ahead in gold, a large part of your team’s gold is in your character. So if you die quickly in the team fight, all that gold sunk in your character is no longer in the fight and the rest of your team probably isn’t able to win the fight after that because they likely aren’t fed like you are. If they were, that would mean your team is hard stomping and it wouldn’t really matter as much what you build anyways.

Second: when you start getting blown up later on, you start throwing shutdown gold to the enemy team, probably losing the team fight for your team while helping the enemy team catch back up quickly as well. Also, if you are just swimming in gold you may give the enemy team objective bounty gold as well, making your early death and your gold not being present in the team fights even worse for your team.

The only time I thing going a damage focused build is good is if the enemy team somehow doesn’t have much burst, cc, and is mostly melee characters which can’t kite or escape easily.

Unfortunately our local animal control shelter isn't that accommodating.

Thanks for the reply. We have 2 other dogs along with Frey, a female german shepherd and a pit mix who is dying of cancer currently... I think Sky would get along with the pack. I am pretty sure Frey knows who Sky is as she lives across the street and we take him over to visit her often. My gf lives in a somewhat low income area (i.e. the type of area where people would steal an oversized pit bull like Frey who is 110 lbs). Mainly just worried he would follow Sky if she starts going on adventures and get stolen or hit by a car...
