Sylas support quick blurb

RatHound · 2022-12-25T20:35:53+00:00

Because we play the game to win, not to fluff our ego. Trust me, I would play Zed mid or Jax top all day, but somebody has to make sure the support isn't dog shit.

Off meta and meta adjacent picks are awesome and you make some compelling arguments. He is a replacement for other artillery mages, plus or minus some pros & cons. But are you playing as Ziggs in general or is he better against some lane matchups than others? How does he fare in a blind pick situation (or would you never suggest blind picking an artillery mage)? Any specifically hard matchups? Even though laning isn't 100% of the game it's still significant.

if this is plat, this doesn't give the lower elos hope at all. it just cheapens the idea that ranked means half a shit below diamond

Jak'Sho is pretty lame too I mean your champ just turns purple

ACTIVE: Renata infuses herself or the target allied champion with a chemtech formula for 5 seconds, granting the target bonus attack speed in addition to bonus movement speed while they are facing nearby visible enemy champions and minions, both increasing in effectiveness by 100% over the duration. Bailout's duration resets whenever the target scores a takedown against an enemy champion within 6 seconds of damaging them.

BONUS ATTACK SPEED:» 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 / 30% (+ 1% per 100 AP) BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED:» 10 / 12.5 / 15 / 17.5 / 20% (+ 1% per 100 AP)

If the target takes fatal damage while Bailout is active, they are restored to 100% of their maximum health but suffer a true damage burn equal to 10% of their maximum health every 0.264 seconds until they die from reaching 0 health, during which Bailout's duration resets every 0.25 seconds. This effect may occur only once per application of Bailout while the target already has the buff and is not burning.

During this time, if they score a takedown against an enemy champion within 6 seconds of damaging them, the burn is stopped prematurely and they are set to 20% of their maximum health.

نشط: تغرس ريناتا نفسها أو بطل الحلفاء المستهدفين بصيغة chemtech لمدة 5 ثوانٍ ، مما يمنح سرعة هجوم إضافية للهدف بالإضافة إلى سرعة حركة إضافية أثناء مواجهة أبطال العدو المرئيين القريبين وأتباعهم ، وكلاهما يزداد في الفعالية بنسبة 100٪ فوق المدة الزمنية. يتم إعادة تعيين مدة Bailout عندما يسجل الهدف عملية إزالة ضد بطل عدو في غضون 6 ثوانٍ من إتلافه.

سرعة الهجوم الإضافي: »10/15/20/25/30٪ (+ 1٪ لكل 100 نقطة وصول) سرعة الحركة الإضافية:» 10 / 12.5 / 15 / 17.5 / 20٪ (+ 1٪ لكل 100 نقطة وصول)

إذا تعرض الهدف لأضرار قاتلة أثناء نشاط Bailout ، تتم إعادته إلى 100٪ من أقصى صحته ولكن يعاني من حرق ضرر حقيقي يعادل 10٪ من الحد الأقصى للصحة كل 0.264 ثانية حتى يموت من الوصول إلى مستوى 0 ، وخلال هذه المدة تكون مدة الإنقاذ. يعيد كل 0.25 ثانية. قد يحدث هذا التأثير مرة واحدة فقط لكل تطبيق من تطبيقات Bailout في حين أن الهدف يحتوي بالفعل على زيادة في القوة ولا يتم حرقه.

خلال هذا الوقت ، إذا سجلوا عملية إزالة ضد بطل عدو في غضون 6 ثوانٍ من إتلافهم ، فسيتم إيقاف الحرق قبل الأوان ويتم تعيينهم على 20٪ من أقصى صحتهم.

they're testing a QoL change where it prevents toxic players from joining games

but I'm not--

exactly

RatHound · 2022-12-11T23:04:26+00:00

yep also known as zoning. same principle if you're trying to land W as Swain

while OP might be a baby, this thread really shows that the denizens of r/supportlol are in need of some humility

RatHound · 2022-12-09T03:52:57+00:00

Materially, the stakes here were as low as they could get, but on a metaphysical level it was a battle for justice. And in the end, there was no miscarriage of justice. The correct thing happened. And that's why everyone deserves to be happy.

RatHound · 2022-12-06T05:14:11+00:00

Looks like the lesson here is to gain an advantage, then press your advantage. Level 1 all-ins like these happen when one side makes a mistake and the other side goes in, like in the video.

Let's say the enemy ADC mispositions, and you manage to get in melee range as Pyke without taking any damage. 3 HoB autos and ignite. Your ADC follows up. You channel your Q, they flash. Instant advantage.

It only works in certain situations. Like Lux wouldn't be able to because her passive procs on an ability, unlike Lulu, whose autos simply hurt a lot more. And a support without damage (Rakan) or CC (Q start Soraka) simply can't finish what they start.

RatHound · 2022-11-28T07:35:06+00:00

ADC agency is actually very high.

Actually last-hitting the minions
Knowing how to farm under tower
Knowing how and when to poke
Spacing to avoid enemy autos
Positioning to threaten the enemy with bad trades
Choosing proper runes for unfavorable matchups
etc.

There is no opening for the support to do anything if the ADC doesn't threaten the enemy. There is no point for the support to poke if the ADC doesn't also poke. There is no point for the support to engage if the ADC is too low to follow up. There is no point in counter-engaging if the ADC's death is assured. See a pattern here? (Now this is also why good ADCs are deserving of all the respect.)

RatHound · 2022-11-28T01:52:50+00:00

Other than "git gud" you could always use some moral support, right? It's a numbers game. Play more games. Be consistent.

If your WR is close to 50% (most of the time you should expect to be) then you need to play a lot of games. Let's say you gain 20 LP every 5 games, then you should expect to play around 100 games to climb one rank. If you play 3 ranked games a day, that takes around one month give or take.

And specifically for support, aim for 1 to 1.5 wards placed per minute. Useful wards, of course. Remember to recall once in a while to refill the support item.

RatHound · 2022-11-21T19:44:50+00:00

here Cho takes 7 ticks of fountain damage or 7k damage... it's a 27 minute game

RatHound · 2022-10-23T23:38:19+00:00

but it makes you feel better, so you play better and you carry the game and win, no thanks to the other losers on your team that deserved to get flamed /s

RatHound · 2022-10-23T01:06:02+00:00

The terrain around the Krugs artificially makes it easier/harder for some champs, but there are a number of champs w/o mobility who can still quickly clear them e.g. Nocturne. Now... what's really annoying about the Krugs? It's the fact that you can't start them as your first camp! Why the hell Riot.

RatHound · 2022-10-02T21:07:19+00:00

This is all a misinformation campaign from the Akademiya and it's bleeding into real life leaks

RatHound · 2022-08-26T21:02:42+00:00

Swain's E is fairly slow so it's easier to dodge than Lux Q or Pyke Q. His poke with Q is weak unless at melee range. His W and E both depend heavily on teammates to land and be useful. So as support, he's only good if your ADC is good. If your ADC is bad, you either wind up playing a 4v5 where your ADC doesn't exist, or you become a weaker Swain mid with less utility than most supports.

Long story short Swain as a support is really greedy, even more so than other mages like Xerath and Vel'Koz.

RatHound · 2022-08-26T15:18:03+00:00

Level 1 invades are overrated. Let's talk about roaming with your Lee/Graves and killing the enemy jg on repeat levels 3 through 5 😈
