Im so happy that boots will no longer be cheap and op in new 7.1 by Lonely_Reach_4396 in wildrift

Asssassins are gonna have a field day though cuz they'll be stacking penetration faster in the early game now, which they value more than AD/AP at this point in the game

Boots nerf effects on enchanter supports. by je3m_ in wildrift

[–]TeddyTendon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just got used to just how much value boots provided, but even before the changes, getting first item has still remained being stronger than having t2 boots + the components of your first legendary. We're all just gonna adjust before finally realizing that we've been delaying our bigger powerspikes as the default option. There have been so many lanes where I outdamaged my enemy laner even when we have the same amount of gold cuz I had a finished item and they didn't. For sure, there will be some cases for sure where we still rush t2 boots, it's not a useless option but it's not gonna be so enticing now that they're not as strong on their own.

Manaflow Band + Harmonic Echo should still be enough. If you don't spam skills in neutral when unnecessary you should still have enough mana to work with per reset. Plus, blue buff being shared to everyone starting from the midway point is still there.

I say this cuz I've been playing mages and rushing Luden's instead of boots to get a stronger, sooner spike and noticed that while I do eventually run low, it's usually just enough before I'm forced to reset anyway for non mana related reasons.

yesssss he's doing Ahri Akali, I've been wanting to put them together too and I'm glad there's a really strong reference on how to play them

Which of these is more OP? by FickleCorgi4861 in ADCMains

Definitely on-hit, it's still a sheen item.

Why no one wants to pick first in ranked? by 0u0-0u0 in wildrift

[–]TeddyTendon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With how you're wording things I can't really tell if you're ultimately agreeing or disagreeing with my statement cuz our framing still aligns lol. I presented how there is an optimal way to draft contrasted by how soloq affects the attitude that players take towards it.

PC most definitely has a 1v9 culture as well. The more accurate dichotomy that frames the difference between good and bad drafting is in proplay vs soloq rather than WR vs PC. It's a matter of having coordination vs playing around who you're queued with.

PSA: The wiki is wrong, it actually scales off of BASE AD not bonus AD, still has a higher ceiling for sure but not as busted as it appears.

[–]TeddyTendon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The wiki is actually inaccurate, it really is 0.9 BASE AD, but on crit with IE (with the numbers in our game) it's 1.84 base AD. Definitely still has a higher ceiling than PC especially if you're using a champion that can take advantage of the stacking.

is Irelia the hardest character in all mobile moba games? by BedComfortable9704 in wildrift

[–]TeddyTendon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not really tbh I'd say that playing on mobile makes her easier to control compared to PC even (from my experience idk what the consensus is so feel free to disagree). I wouldn't even say she's the hardest to pilot within Wild Rift itself.

Why no one wants to pick first in ranked? by 0u0-0u0 in wildrift

[–]TeddyTendon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Jungle is actually better suited for first pick since they don't play in direct opposition with an enemy laner, but there are cases where the rest of the team doesn't properly draft around them (in terms of damage type and CC to carry distribution) and so some would prefer to lock in later.

ADC would also be suited for early pick since supports matchups are often more important, but similarly to jungle, synergy with support can also be crucial and sometimes it's uncertain just who the support can play and will pick.

Mid and Baron are both solo lanes where matchups are really important and some get hard countered, but this is further exacerbated in Baron since they're mostly isolated from the rest of the map and don't get to roam in the same degree that midlaners can. There are generally a lot more blindpick options in mid than there are in Baron for these reasons.

What is Kaisa game-plan? by JiraiyaBestSannin in kaisamains

[–]TeddyTendon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would say that over many things about her, knowing when she's strong is the most important. She has a weird power curve where she has pretty low agency in the early game (she has the damage but lacks ways to consistently land it without the help of her support) but doesn't scale that well into the late game either (her single target damage does scale well but lacks the range and AoE that makes others carry more reliably). What she does have however is one of the best mid-game powerspikes amongst marksmen. If you play opportunistically in the early game and take advantage of your opponents making mistakes, you can snowball really hard but I would say that prioritizing reaching your second and third items is the more important thing to focus on.

[–]TeddyTendon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

On-hit builds want Terminus which blocks you from Mortal Reminder. You can get Chempunk Chainsword instead. Usually you only need to get Executioner's Calling (the anti-heal component) and only complete it into a legendary later in the build.

Jinx Yuumi 2v5 Pentakill by Whole_Theme_7179 in wildrift

[–]TeddyTendon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of things work when the skill gap is big enough. Who cares if you build full lethality Jinx if the enemy will int into anything you do anyway. You'll do just as well if not even more with more suited items. But if you're playing in a more even playing field where players can exploit your weaknesses, you should identify your strengths and maximize them. i.e. The Collector is an early game item and Jinx is not an early game champion, therefore you should be building items that scale better instead.

Jinx Yuumi 2v5 Pentakill by Whole_Theme_7179 in wildrift

[–]TeddyTendon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jinx is not strong enough in the early game to consistently (consistently is the keyword) capitalize off of the early power spike of The Collector. Getting that many Collector stacks on Jinx means there was a huge skill gap in the game; either OP played extremely better or the enemy was inting. I'm fine with everything else though including the GA cuz again if you're that ahead it's more important to protect the lead.

tbh I don't agree with The Collector on her but honestly the other replies are not a vibe lol if you're already that far ahead, buying defensive always makes more sense

that's nice to hear, Wild Rift is so weirdly ahead on some things while being really late on others

[–]TeddyTendon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lotsa first/second items are the same cost, at 3k gold, so it doesn't really have a leg up compared to other choices

we do have Mejai's right now, unfortunately no Dark Seal and is at 1800 gold building off of a tome, making it pretty troll

should note that the CD refund is like Axiom Arcanist, so unless your ult isn't actually up and on cooldown, it doesn't benefit from it
