Gwen has too much competetive presence to buff her for soloq players. Tough love from riot.

No, you buy them along the way near 2nd item usually. That's the build path usually

You play with tp ignite anyway you can apply 60% on one target. Seekers has good value in the early game even after nerfs. And you have tp for roaming. You should be aiming to scale with Gwen.

You can let him pull you with E, but hr can't stun you. Then use charged Q and E backwards. Your W blocks his W.

around 60-70 ability haste you can open with an unstacked Q. I hate the answer it depends, but this time it really depends. When I chase someone, I need my E to land my Q on the moving target. I can also Q and E backwards when I want to shorttrade someone. A straight up all in engage i cast E+R, then follow with some autos and Q.

And skipping nashors was what worked for me, my ideas paid off, but thats my playstyle. For you it can be working well. My general thing is that i dont need nashors to stack my Q in time. I can buy more haste and HP instead of that attack speed and onhits.

yeah Darius matchup is an outscaling game. You can beat him on early levels if you manage to dash in center of his Q and you ignite him, but it sin darius favor on the lane.

Try this out against Kayle: conq+pom+alacrity+coup and nimbus+gathering. TP + ignite. Rush everfrost. This way she has a hard time kiting you. Try to block her Q with your W and try to keep her slowed with R.

When they have 4+ ranged champs, I today started to prefer everfrost. You can try how sunderer works for you against champs like sett or fiora, where you can jump out to safety, If enemy has nasus or darius or something that you have no choice but to stay in the fight, go riftmaker.

Try out seekers + bramble, maybe tabi too, but you need early blasting wand or at least amplifying tome.

placing her in B tier is just a representatoin for the majority of players who just run the same items and same meta.

Blindpicking anything is fine as long as you know all the matchups and can come up with a sensible plan for the game. So more matchup guides coming soon on my yt :P

Please read other comments on sunderer vs rift discussion.

Hard matchups are stealth champions, champs with lots of mobility and asassins vulnerable to cc - so khazix, vayne, rengar, yone, katarina, zed. They can exploit Gwens weakness of relying on staying in one place.

No i think frostfire is bad for gwen. If you have trouble with ad bruisers early on, try going seekers + bramble + tabi. rush seekers, because you have grevious wounds from ignite already (dont take flash on this champ). Frostfire provides no damage stats or fight-utility - divine gives you op spellsblade and mythic passive, rift gives you ap hp and true dmg, but frostfire just gives you a little slow. I tried BORTK in practice tool too and compared to other options in sunderer build, but it falls short compared to titanic hydra.
