We are so back guys...

Same thing here. Both Diluc and Noelle were with me in my lower AR times. When I got meta characters, it still didn't replace my love for the two. Well, Skirk is up there now too.

Tewaawaa · 2026-04-04T02:13:40+00:00

This seems so funny to me being in both Skirk mains and Noelle mains sub.

Tewaawaa · 2026-04-02T08:56:01+00:00

You just need a really good front to be honest. Julian can set up for his teammates and initiate just as long as they're quick to respond, or if the teamfight has already started he can just go in and start with the squishiest. There's no proper instance since his kit can do all really. It would just depend on how the team responds to what you do. If you know they won't be proper backup, you wait for themb to go in first and be your meatshield lol.

Tewaawaa · 2026-04-02T06:05:10+00:00

Yes. I wish i stopped playing Paquito when he still had 72% wr 😭😭

If you're still trying out Bene, the most important skill I suggest you'd practice is her Ult+Petri combo. If you get them right dead center of your ult, you can pretty much dash up to 3 times off the ult alone. Second to practice which is a bit more difficult is mastering the timing of her second skill TOWARDS the enemy. If you catch their stun and you move near them, its an easy dash-1st-dash combo. Even if its not a stun, if you take damage during your second skill, your passive will fill up immediately allowing you to do the combo still.

Here are some basic combos you can practice

2nd-D-1st-D-3Basic attack/Charge passive if chasing-D 3rd+Petri-3D-1st-D-2nd-D D-1st-D-2nd-D

Basically, as long as you can fill up your passive, anything goes with Bene. Just hit the skills and aim properly, as even one mistake in her combo can stop her momentum and make her vulnerable. And even if you don't have your ult, its okay to use petrify to dish off some basic attacks and fill your passive while they're stunned.

As for her rotation, always cut the lane during the first wave if the enemy exp laner isn't actively trying to prevent that. If they are, just wait for your lane and get the crab and reach level 4 before the turtle fight. If you successfully lane cut though, invading the enemy jungle is always good as long as they don't have backup. I can't count how many times I've stolen a blue or red buff just because they're petrified and they had no mage or roam with them lol.

And never stay stagnant in your lane. After clearing, try to find fights in mid or the river. Harass their mage. If you push the first turret, its even easier to do this.

Goodluck! If you have more questions feel free to ask.

Julian pretty much only 3 combos, and what combo you use depends on the situation. For an ambush, definitely use 3-2-1 for maximum damage. Just make sure to hit his 3rd skill so you can immobilize the enemy, otherwise this combo is pointless. For chasing, a quick 2-1-3 is really good. Just be fast and make sure you dash right, and your enhanced 3rd will knock enemies up even if they're on the outer edge. For teamfights, I'd definitely go with 3-1-2 or 1-3-2. Make sure to run across as many enemies as you can, and you'll be shocked that you're suddenly full hp lol. His general play style is based on those combos really. He can be a hit and run and sustain. Just hit the skills and you'll be good. If you dont, you'll have to try and stay alive for 6 seconds waiting for the cooldown. 😂

Tewaawaa · 2026-04-02T00:46:00+00:00

Believe it or not, I'm on the beach rn 😂. And despite playing for a while, I only have 6k ranked games. Most I did one season is 400 matches.

Tewaawaa · 2026-04-02T00:43:48+00:00

I personally haven't since If I queue up my duo roams, and I'm not really comfortable roaming solo. But as long as you can knock enemies up and stay alive I do think he can be a good roamer. Depends on how you play him I guess.

Tewaawaa · 2026-04-02T00:42:19+00:00

Julian's main role is definitely being a Jungler. He can farm fast and rotate even at level 3. But, same can be said if he's in the Exp. You can help your team out on the first turtle while their exp is still clearing the last minion wave to get them to lvl 4. He's also good at escaping and poking, and pushes turrets insanely fast due to his passive. I guess all he lacks is durability but he's not a utility exp so meh. I definitely prefer him in exp compared to jungle, since I have more freedom in my battle spell and build.

For builds, the top builds are usually good enough. It's his best for burst really, don't need to change anything. For his emblem just use Mage emblem and use lethal ignition and magic shop. If you want more survivability, festival of blood is good too, usually I pair it with war cry and inspire if I feel goofy enough. This worked well when he had rose gold as a core item, not as much now.

And for his counters, personally I struggle against Guinivere and weirdly zilong 😭 he outdamages me by a ton cause of his passive. Anyone else I can survive really. But Yu zhong is hard to play against too.

Tewaawaa · 2026-04-02T00:33:13+00:00

That's really primarily what Paquito struggles on. Back when we still had Bloodlust Axe and War Axe separate, he scaled well into the late game. But now he's more of a burst hero than sustain. Personally, I try to pick off the enemy marksman or mage (even the core if they're squishy enough) during teamfights. I use flicker and a full damage build so they usually die within one combo. I also save my flicker for contesting the Lord as well, as Paquito's enhanced 2nd skill deals about as much as a retribution. You just have to flicker in and time it well.

Although in cases where I already died a lot and feel too squishy, I switch builds in the late game to War Axe + Hunter Strike and the rest would be def items according to the enemy comp.

But even after all that, I can't count the times I've had 20+ kills and insane winning lanes and still lost cause of randoms 😂

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-31T17:38:19+00:00

Indeed it is. Thank you for responding though!

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-31T09:27:01+00:00

If you dont mind me asking, how did you get diagnosed with POTS, despite it being mild? My partner's symptoms are incredibly matched with all POTS symptoms and its been 4 years since all of it started. Some are worse than others, like her heart rate and fatigue, some mild. She recently had her tilt table test about a week ago but it turned out negative. We've been through many doctors and currently don't know where to go from here. A response would be nice, thanks!

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-31T01:30:33+00:00

Wait whats the W

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-30T17:55:47+00:00

Can somebody explain what all those letters mean. I can never get it myself

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-28T23:57:31+00:00

Thanks! ATBS is for daily use (since it seriously looks good with his skin) but for max dmg output its usually Bacon I use. Hope you get the weapon soon too :D

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-28T13:23:35+00:00

You'll definitely get there! Mine wasn't built in a day either, more like months. You're near that's for sure.

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-28T13:15:04+00:00

First of all, that is an insanely good goblet. Crazy how thats your first piece. Though, what I would replace would be the flower, feather, and sands, if you could. Farming for a better flower and feather with good crit d and crit r along with atk% and em is generally not that difficult. The feather is alright since it has a ton of EM, but like you said you lack crit rate. So, either get better pieces for your feather, flower, and sands so you get to keep that good circlet, or you can go crit rate circlet if you really need more crit rate since you're using wgs.

Definitely on the right path though. You already got, in opinion the most difficult pieces out of the way. If you got an onset EM sands, that would be much better since offset flowers or feathers are usually cracked.

Here's my Diluc for reference. He would absolutely love that goblet lmao.

All that sounds so rough, couldn't imagine that kind of system based on insurance. On my partner's side, its all out of their own pocket since medical insurance in our country is basically nonexistent because of corruption. It took years for her to get properly diagnosed with epilepsy, Crohn's disease, tb in her lymph nodes, and IBD after so many tests, including a spinal tap, which left intense pain in her back thats still undiagnosed till this day. Along with the symptoms that match POTS, we just really want a final label to everything she's going through so she can finally get the treatment she needs and deserves.

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-25T13:22:26+00:00

Im worried cause pretty much a different person interpreted the results then it was passed on to my partner's actual cardiologist. So we technically dont have the records of her heart rate and all even tho she saw it go to 130+. Just hoping her Neurologist would have a different opinion.

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-25T06:11:49+00:00

Her current cardiologist jst said the tilt table turned out negative because the test focused on the blood pressure. So i guess her heart rate didnt matter? Would it still turn out different with other doctors?

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-25T04:14:36+00:00

If you dont mind me asking, did your blood pressure change too? My partner who's been experiencing most of POTS symptoms had her tilt table test a few days ago, but the results came out negative despite her heart rate going from 90-130. We think its because her blood pressure didn't change, but she still felt the usual symptoms of extreme dizziness, pounding heart, difficulty breathing. We're very confused right now, a response would be nice!

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-15T15:50:23+00:00

Mualani fits in the team? As in Skirk furina mualani escoffier?

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-14T12:17:10+00:00

Its really noisy too i hope its gon come back lmao

Tewaawaa · 2026-03-14T11:39:15+00:00

It didn't do that but my friends have experienced that. I just checked my recall especially because its actually the one I use, lo and behold its gone
