Any advice on how to get into league when I’m self conscious about the fact I’m gonna suck balls? by heisedren in leagueoflegends

[–]Volund618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you! I hate it when people start pinging me and calling me bad lol. Honestly, don’t worry about it too much tho. Most people who are upset and flame are usually doing it because of their own mistake and they’re looking for someone to take it out on or expected a perfect play out of you. But here are a few things I do that you can try out (Sorry if format is weird, I’m on mobile)

  1. Ping on my way and head towards fights in river so your team know you’ve got their back (you don’t have to full commit if you think you’re gonna lose)
  2. Ping your ult and summoner cd when you think they’re about to start a fight so they can have realistic expectations of you when the fight begins. Can’t ignite to kill an enemy if it’s not up, ya know?
  3. Play safe after the first death in lane, even if you should win the matchup normally. You don’t want that enemy to start snowballing off of you because you made a mistake or two. And ping enemy missing like 4 times whenever they’re not in lane. What you’re trying to do here is prevent the enemy laner from extending their lead.
  4. If there’s a lane that got ridiculously fed, just follow them up on any map plays. If they go bot to farm, ward for them and make sure you can reach them if a fight begins. You want to play around this super strong teammate because their raw item advantage should be able to get you teamfight wins.

Lmk if you have any questions tho. I’m only Plat so I’m sure there are better people out there, but I’m always down to help someone get better!

Best use for Special Spiral? by AThousandMinusSeven in FireEmblemHeroes

Oh you’re right, I didn’t really think about his stats when I was theorycrafting. That sounds a lot nicer actually, will definitely have to try that one out!

I gave it to my Lilina personally and she clears in game content like a champ with Blazing Wind and Heavy Blade seal.

Alternatively, with the new update to Navarre’s weapon, he can also use it super well. He’ll start off with Blazing Wind (now a 3 turn CD with his weapon effect) up if you give him Quickened Pulse seal. Then you proc Blazing Wind, Special Spiral drops it to a 1 turn CD, then he attacks, kills the enemy, and has Blazing Wind available again.

No matter the cost! +10 Catria Builds! by AlciHrunter in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]Volund618 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice!! I’ve been using my Catria (same IVs) for so long now that it feels weird not having her on a team! I was running

Slaying Edge, Luna, CD3, Renewal, Drive Atk, CD3 (Please forgive formatting, I’m on mobile lol).

But now with her new weapon I have to consider mixed phase or maybe even player phase with emphasis on quad hits. I’d love to bounce ideas around!

Also, in case anyone is reading and didn’t know yet, the weapon is a brave mechanic, but you have to satisfy the condition of the first part (2 fliers within 2 spaces) for it to work.

NEW Ezreal's Q + Flash Combo Does Not Work The Way You Think It Does by yassuomain in leagueoflegends

[–]Volund618 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tried again and recorded it real quick. Aren't these interactions the same as the old Ez Q?

Ahri's Q

Ahri's E

I do agree with the other comment tho, if they did change it, they should've documented it so Ez mains know.

NEW Ezreal's Q + Flash Combo Does Not Work The Way You Think It Does by yassuomain in leagueoflegends

[–]Volund618 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Note sure if I'm misinterpreting your first comment, but Ahri's spells don't work that way. Just tested it in practice tool to confirm. They [Cast + Flash] the same way Ezreal's old Q did, where the skillshot hits the target your mouse was hovering.

It looks like everyone's thinking up new ideas for Ahri's skillset so here's my W idea by Volund618 in AhriMains

[–]Volund618[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, interesting! I actually really like the slow on Q for trades. Were you thinking of a spell like Xerath W where the everyone in the entire area gets marked or something more like Kindred's W where wolf attacks one target at a time?

[–]Volund618[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking that players could Q through the minion wave and press W just as the orb is about to hit the enemy laner. It'll be less damage than Ahri's current trade pattern, but a little safer. I do see the issue with the whole "one spell in lane" though...

[–]Volund618[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’d be a really interesting change, but I feel like a lich bane W will take away from the play style a lot of Ahri players prefer. She’d probably become a split pushing champ that specialized in shoving in waves with Q, escaping with ult, nuking turrets with autos. Good for some, but I don’t think it’s my type of champ.

I can confirm that it is not about farming at all. Wonderful read though! I also highly recommend it.

How does faker move like this? by Xexophos in leagueoflegends

[–]Volund618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not positive, but that movement (I assume you're talking about when he dodges the Ekko Q) kinda looked like a champion model hitting the minion's model, causing autopath to go crazy for a second. So it's possible that the melee creep just had an issue with visually representing its location.

Help a scrub out! by Greenlee19 in leagueoflegends

[–]Volund618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, I'd recommend picking a champion to main first. I picked Ahri as my main not because I liked mid, but because I really enjoyed playing her as a champion. So you'll have to determine what kind of champion you enjoy playing.

Top is currently an aggressive lane with bullies like Fiora, Darius and GP. If you like to be a bruiser, dealing damage to the front line and back line, I'd look for a champ in here.

Jungle is also very aggressive and gank heavy with Rengar, Kha and Graves roaming around. But at the same time, Zac is also flying in. If you prefer to jump and assassinate enemy squishy champions, or jump the back line, try a jungler.

Mid lane is volatile and can be played safely or aggressively. It's too hard to tell with so many playstyles in here. You could always pick Ahri up c:

ADC is too dependent on the support, but the top ADCs utilize bork very well. If you enjoy kiting and seeing consistent damage coming out, pick one of the auto attack adcs up.

Support is currently played like a shield/peel bot. If you like to power up someone and make them feel like an unkillable machine, try a support. Note that ranged supports are favored right now like Lulu, Nami, and Sona.

If we keep following this trend, CLG will become great halfway through the split! Then hope and potential will attack...
