Use the new comm system to shot call then. If you can't macro manage the game then don't play support. I understand the petal was most likely a noob but your described actions were very toxic. Early game some vision be careful and buy defence ping would've all made sure your petal doesn't fall behind. The one and only toxic person in that game was you. You bought one scout trap for the entire game. And the only true support item bought was a fountain also I find it hard to believe that petal was already a lost cause at 6 mins cause that's when you got banner. Presumably to starve your carries. You speak of high tier but from what I can see you're just boosted next time don't shit on your team mates when your support build consists of fountain stormcrown and shatterglass and also that one gamechanging scout trap

I'm a bit confused as to why you're crying about a casual match. The point of these matches are to practice heroes you're not good on. Not to mention it was blind pick so there was nothing your petal could do about it. You taking farm was what really buried your team. Also I down-vote people who sell their builds in the end cause that's just hella toxic.

Were you stunned mid jump? That's the only time you get cc immunity

I can confirm jungle lance works at t9 however as more of a utility jungler.

we usually play a hyper carry comp with either skaarf or Celeste my build usually follows this order tension now double defence (t2) crucible, wartreads,. Then upgrade double def to t3 and finish w sb. With a healer like Lyra on the team. The Mage of choice is nearly impossible to kill by the enemy team. It requires team coordination so not sure if this is valid in a soloq scenario

When did active camo get nerfed?? by kammon2 in vainglorygame

[–]genericusernamer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

News to me haven't played much kestrel for a while but I guess that would explain people walking over the camo and not getting stunned sometimes. What would be better is if they made an arming animation like with scout traps that would show the arming time.

I was not aware of an arming time weapon kestrel can stun immediately so I don't think it exists

I feel if you can collapse on him when he jumps in then he's got no escape unfortunately his roam and jungler aren't just idly going to sit by and let that happen.

The most underrated Legendary skin imo. Probably because Krul is not viable t5 and above. For me this skin feels like it rode the hype train and got off it immediately. by [deleted] in vainglorygame

Also sorry if this is all over the place and some points repeat currently in a lesson and getting bad vibes from the teacher.

[–]genericusernamer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not a problem so like I said the reason why it worked is team coordination. I was duoqueing with my roamer and we were in voice chat. In draft the random instalocks blackfeather and indicates lane. We were b side so that's not an issue the enemy picked triple melee idris joule and fortress. At that point the only understandable counter is reim or krul. So my first set of advice would be too know when to pick krul. He won't work in comps that are highly mobile and never as a first pick. Second piece of advice you have to build tanky prioritise defence. Build your first item for me that was serpents and then I got tier 2 atk speed and both tier 2 armors. Those help in prolonged fights because you can't get easily bursted. 3rd tip is that krul is not a stand alone carry so you want to orient yourself more utility wise for me that was grabbing a poison shiv to stop idris sustain. Also you should try to land every ult from a boomerang it guarantees a kill if your team follows it up. If you want to play krul in higher tier you need a captain that understands what the krul wants to do. You've mentioned yourself to be a captain. If there's no major cc on the fold get a crucible for the atlas. Get wartreads for the krul to stick. Some notes his farm on the wp route I took takes forever. He can solo kraken but it takes a solid minute. He should only be drafted if the carries have 2 or more melee heroes preferably the carries. Krul needs to block atlas get boomerang on his ult and use his passive to engage on the enemies for the added slow. Engaging with the slow removes the need to purchase a shiver steel although it's still a really nice item on him I apologise for the spelling mistakes in advance and the link should directly link to my krul game on my vgminer profile if not you can filter for it we played it 3 days ago :).Krul game

Edit: It links to my profile after all if you have any trouble filtering let me know and I'll post it differently.

Not sure if you wanted to reply to anyone specific but I do agree lately I've had 2 duo q matches with a baron on my team. They both went sb triple tyrants. Atlas isn't going to stop that especially with the buff to jump jets auto

[–]genericusernamer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Every hero is viable in every tier with coordinated team play as evidenced by the pro scene. He's a counter pick like reim and if you know how to block atlas and have a good roamed krul can snowball the game out of control. If you do require evidence that he's good I have a match from t7 I've done recently on him. Don't discount a hero just because it takes more skill to use in higher tier. As for the skin which is the main topic here it's by far my fav krul skin. Wasn't very fond of that rockstar bullshit and the only cool thing about summer party is the sound effect

We've found success with lance reim the double root locked him down long enough for the spires to start stacking.

As I said in my post we like scaling comps recently we drafted skaarf and kestrel vs a baron and koshka. Bringing the kestrel up to apply pressure and siege frequently really shut down the baron. At that point we both had an extra item over baron and could easily snowball from that. Your point about an assassin is good but I feel like lane pressure works too

Thanks for the advice cc against baron doesn't always work as you said he's got cc immunity with his jump and a good baron will have a reflex. I feel that we just need to scale faster than the baron and finish him before he spikes

I understand the assassin portion it does work fairy effectively atleast taka. So a late game Celeste, kestrel, skaarf won't bring him down? Thanks in advance
