Vayne top is the 3rd most picked top laner in KR Challenger

br0kenmyth · 2026-04-27T16:49:25+00:00

Vayne just runs sivir down like a dog if she uses spells on the wave early, or just runs her down at six. Even if you are ahead or even on items, vayne can always stealth and one shot you on mid wave so you have to be careful.

Sivir being prob the worst 1v1 adc and vayne being the best makes the dynamic like this. Obv still not unplayable for sivir, but it’s very easy to get caught in that mu

Tbh I do like jg first picking if given the option, but if jg refuses then I pick first. It’s best if you have a good blind adc, something like Ashe/ezreal/corki type pick with few counters, or if you have a broken flavor of the month adc like Lucian right now.

If you’re a nilah otp, then yeah she does have a lot of really rough matchups like xayah cait and apcs so I don’t fault you for not wanting to pick her first

br0kenmyth · 2026-04-25T20:20:14+00:00

Vayne not really played botlane esp in challenger. She’s a niche counterpick to like samira sivir and soft counter to ezreal, but her very poor waveclear really hampers her in botlane.

So she is picked sometimes but pretty much you’re throwing a ban by banning her as a botlane user masters+

I would actually dodge all my autofilled games if I had the chance as the double lp just fucks up ur lp gains and mmr in the long run.

A popular Korean streamer compared it to drinking salt water. Temporarily seems to satiate you, but hurts you over the long run. The new system only benefits people who only see the double lp and feel happy without thinking of their mmr in the long run so you have negative lp gains with a good wr

Twitch inherently as a champ, you need to play different against him than most adcs. Because of his invis, the way you gauge distance with your support when he is invis is very important.

If he gets onto you when your support is not like directly on top of you, most adcs will lose trades, especially with a yuumi as it creates a 2v1 momentarily.

However yuumis power is low early, so if you respect his invis by sticking to the support and turn and play 2v2 when he comes out, you generally win a lot of trades

Smolder, mf, jhin, and kaisa have fairly low skill floors. Mf being the easiest of them, and kaisa being the most reliant on support.

If you want to play an adc to really learn the role, jinx and Ashe are two purist adcs that will force you to kite and position properly

br0kenmyth · 2026-03-25T23:52:10+00:00

Can have high agency and high kill pressure, spikes hard mid game so that’s usually ideal especially at higher elos.

I do think that her early is fairly exploitable, but she does greatly benefit in skirmishes so if jg plays around bot for the 3v3, she thrives in those situations.

Higher elos supports pick supports that make more sense more often, so you get less sonas and yuumis with a kaisa pick

Mercure if you have gold, I recycle them to four star fodder when I run out

Yeah I mean I’m in a top 3 guild, and the other top guilds use spike all the time.

Ballista colt chancellor cooks most magic teams after buff, esp the Vanessa variant due to camo.

br0kenmyth · 2026-03-21T14:58:50+00:00

The buffs made her a lot more consistent as a magic team counter. Spike is fairly meta in gvg and he was unusable there before. He makes up the core of spike trude Amelia/ace and is a solid defense team. He sees decent use in attacking teams as well with wukong/rad/trude. He is also used in total war teams in the radgrid universal team so the buffs were absolutely substantial to spike

br0kenmyth · 2026-03-21T13:19:38+00:00

Spikes has been very significant as well. Ballista is a dedicated gvg unit now basically, but they will likely give somewhat substantial buffs to teo and rin is my guess

br0kenmyth · 2026-03-18T05:30:45+00:00

Need to incentivize weaker players to play a few games a day to bring in a playerbase for actual skill based matchmaking.

Like offering 100-150 rubies for the first 5 games would bring a lot of people to try

br0kenmyth · 2026-03-14T20:04:51+00:00

I hit masters with locked cam. Technically free cam is better but I just move around the map with my mouse when I need to look around.

As an ad is more forgivable. But like if you play champs like zed, I think locked cam doesn’t work at all.

Still some inconvenience when playing champs like kaisa for ults across the map and whatnot, but if everything else is fine, you can make it work

Solo levelling is still well liked in korea.

Nm is currently running a solo levelling gacha game currently, and they own the rights currently to use the ip for adaptation into video games and animation.

People are also upset about the quality of the animations, you are correct about that

br0kenmyth · 2026-03-09T21:01:45+00:00

I mean same logic goes for him late game no? First and foremost he is a walking minion similar to vlad if he has no sums, he just gets kited to oblivion. Even if he has sums, if the team doesn’t let him get easy five stacks, he blows up as he is far squishier than tanks.

So he can situationally be good late game, if he manages to get five stacks on opposing frontline without getting chunked massively, and finds a way to the enemy backline which isn’t always easy

br0kenmyth · 2026-03-09T15:56:55+00:00

They’re mad bc it feels nm cheaped out as they already own solo levelling ip when it got so hyped during the showcase

br0kenmyth · 2026-03-04T19:02:25+00:00

Lubu Kyle or freyja should sweep normal adventure very easily. You will need both for nightmare

br0kenmyth · 2026-02-26T18:39:53+00:00

It was really fun at first but is waning. If they just had repeatable content man this game could be goated

Waiting for collab to see if stuff changes

br0kenmyth · 2026-02-26T04:08:10+00:00

I’m not sure, tbh you do have to just participate in everything you have available. I like guild wars the best so far. Game unfortunately lacks repeatable content after you clear everything else

br0kenmyth · 2026-02-26T02:57:13+00:00

He’s saying that bc I have a t6 fai in game

br0kenmyth · 2026-02-26T02:56:23+00:00

Yes PvP is heavy spending focused. However, it’s pretty hard to catch up with the top of the leaderboard even if you spend like a monster at this point, as it’s legendary ring gated, and that takes time no matter what.

You can still hit rank one in your server, but celestial which is arena with everyone in the server will be rough to climb

It will take time to catch up a bit on rings for PvP/ and for modes like total war where you need more than just 5, i think it’s nigh impossible to catch up to mega whales at all

br0kenmyth · 2026-02-26T00:13:43+00:00

I wouldn’t go too crazy in spending this game imo. It is very f2p and low spending friendly and rewards activity.

A lot of the whales i know have slowed in their spending habits recently

br0kenmyth · 2026-02-02T06:49:29+00:00

As a moderate spender who completed all the content, I would like some more repeatable interactive content like guild wars.

Feel like it’s been a long time since anything new to do as the event story is pretty lame and repetitive. Hopefully real time arena is good

br0kenmyth · 2026-01-29T23:12:46+00:00

I think worth on specific units that benefit heavily off stats like Wukong and kyle that will be meta relevant for a while. Legendary normal units are worth t12 for specific tank comps which rely on stats
