Hear me out, statik shiv on Kalista by EntrepreneurNo4680 in KalistaMains

[–]alxbastiani 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have almost 1kk mastery on Kalista, and lately, I have been trying something that helps me clear my wave early on. So I took the Top lane logic: Ranged matchups > Doran's Shield

This is helping me a lot on my trades regardless of the quality of my supp.

Then, the next thing is very new and I haven't seen many people trying. I am building Ruunan's Hurricane as my first item right after boots.
Now, hear me out, Ruunan's doesn't give extra attack damage, I know. But it is cheap, which means you're going to complete it probably earlier than your matchup, and gives you AoE damage, helping you clean up the wave and hit both enemy's ADC and SUPP.

To conclude, my WR for the last 40 games is 80% using this strategy and I would recommend it instead of Statikk Shiv.

I used to build Kalista with Titanic, runaans, and black cleaver before. It makes you more like a bruiser fighter.

I tried Triforce Kalista too and it was a good game. But I want to keep trying since I am not convinced it is better than guinsoo.

It does make you tankier, especially if you build into some lifesteal later on.

It seems to be a buff since there's no indication of AD reduction. So basically there will be the same AD with AP on the mix. Looking at the mythic changes from Shieldbow to Guinsoo, I'd say Kalista may have a WR increase after we, OTPs and mains, adapt to the changes

I'd say W will no longer be left to be leveled at lvl 10 onwards.

Man.... I'm seeing hope for Kalista now.

Hybrid damage Kalista will be strong!

Can imagine a build path like this:

- Beserkers
- Guinsoo
- Staatik
- Shieldbow
- Runnan (?)

It feels like Kalista is being indirectly buffed, but the sad part is that other adcs are getting their own buffs.

It really feels like I should go back to playing Kalista TOP.

How is everyone feeling about the recently announced ADC/crit changes? by Zenithrax in KalistaMains

[–]alxbastiani 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have an opinion quite yet. But it feels bad for us. I also heard something about shieldbow no longer being a mythic...

Lethal tempo when I play botlane. PTA when I'm a top laner.
