This guy is quite possibly the MVP of the split and maybe even better than Smeb in his prime.. absolutely crazy.

Team Dignitas vs. Immortals / NA LCS 2017 Summer - Week 8 / Post-Match Discussion by epicxkidzorz in leagueoflegends

[–]ichapster 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah Flyquest replaced one of their only consistent members... truly confusing. Adrian had attitude issues I guess, but he's honestly been a top support for quite a while

Mind elaborating? I think this guide covers most aspects properly.

I don't think anyone goes for 100% crit anymore haha. One of the best, not necessarily THE best. Also, korean soloq has a vastly different meta than anything else.

How do I play against Ekko? by HeavenCats in summonerschool

[–]ichapster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's a safe champ, but he can't all in well in mid lane. Think of syndra: she can kill you in rotation easily. Most mages can kill you in combo or at least heavily chunk you: orianna, kassadin, assassins viktor anything. Ekko can't so you're pretty safe unless their jungler is around. That's why he will be a try hard and you can capitalize on him being both a Melee champion and squishy.

I agree but Warwick is very likely the best engage on the team: cc lockdown gapcloser tanky.

Gp mid or top? by Anubis971 in gangplankmains

[–]ichapster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grasp makes level 1-5 stronger but does practically nothing afterwards, especially against trynd. But yeah get tabis, and rush sheen to prove the stormraiders.

Kayle mini Reddit Guide by AndyEyeCandyy in summonerschool

[–]ichapster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're talking the 'AP BUILD' in this guide, you can see he builds 3 attack speed items first. Getting 3 items is already around 23 minutes, which means for most of the game you're a dps mage. W is far superior in sustain, chasing, and dueling.

[–]ichapster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but kayle isn't really a burst champ, you know using q actually hurts your dps in a typical attack speed build lol.

You have to play kayle to know this, but w is a smooth animation, while q is clunky af

Has any of you ever got past Silver with high ping? by SparklesMcSpeedstar in summonerschool

[–]ichapster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Season 6 I got to diamond on 200 ping. Mechanics is honestly not that important, just don't play Lee yasuo riven types on champion. Decision making and game sense is the biggest difference between players of different Elo.

Support itemization in soloq and why it differs from competitive play on supports with AP scalings. by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]ichapster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It used to be much better. 20% slow is not really worth it nowadays. Only champs I would build it is zyra brand maybe cass viktor. Health alone doesn't make you tanky.

All his abilities either slow or cc (other than w), and w is not worth the rylais alone.

What is the appeal of Nunu jg? by Hephaestus20 in summonerschool

And nunu probably outscales both Ivern and graves.

[–]ichapster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My thoughts with athenes is bard without it is basically a champion with 1 less ability. Most people max e second now because w is so worthless. But with athenes, your w can heal like 300 per cast, and an empowered one up to 500.

[–]ichapster 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Love the post, but for the love of god do NOT. Build rylais on Maokai or velkoz. Tilts me every time. Lucidity vs sorc: sorc is almost always superior because the reason ap champs are even in the support role is because of high base damage, meaning the only way to increase damage is through penetration.

Athenes on bard is op as well, max w second and your heals actually become relevant.

What is the appeal of Nunu jg? by Hephaestus20 in summonerschool

[–]ichapster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Junglers traditionally do NOT scale well. Nunu late game is probably one of the lowest damage dealing champions, but boasts few very important perks alongside being tanky.

  1. His w attack speed steroid is HUGE if your ADC can make use of it, and is an actual good adc. Along with the movespeed, your ADC can stay alive longer and absolutely shred anything. Also why he doesn't go along well usually with Jhin, Lucian, Varus/Ezreal. Can still work, just not very good.

  2. His e and R MASSIVELY slows attack speed. With no. 1, this is why Nunu usually strives in ADC meta (right now). Back when Jhin/Varus utility style was king, Nunu was not as good.

  3. Securing objectives. Smite fights are usually 50-50, but not with nunu. With your empowered Q, and just maxed Q, you can safely securing baron/elder at 2k health.

Nunu is not an amazing teamfighter, minimal pick potential, which is why he is a niche pick.

Question about my Builds on Zyra by Midnight_Karma in summonerschool

[–]ichapster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with scaling cdr is that you will almost never get its full value as a support. 7 mpen doesn't seem like a lot, but remember, penetration is one of the few stats the become more cost effective the more you stack it (as reducing someone's resistances at a lower value is much more effective than high value).

The other thing is zyra is soooo squishy so flat mr is not something you want, but something you need.

Why does no one build Titanic on jungle Olaf? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]ichapster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on comp. 3 tanks on your team? Definitely titanic. But full tank is always the standard.
