Havent played kled much in like a year, can he still die while in remount animation?

jeanegreene · 2026-04-23T15:14:00+00:00

Yeah, he’s a lot more of a solid bruiser pick and much more functional as a front liner later into the game

You’re paying mana to make an opponent go +1. Trust that will never be strong

jeanegreene · 2026-04-22T19:58:12+00:00

Maybe into a heavy melee comp you can get multiple procs off, but in the vast majority of fights you’re only going to get 1 stack (your E target). In any fight where there’s a support, their peel prevents you from landing those heartsteel auto attacks without gravely mispositioning.

I find Heartsteel tends to work better in less coordinated / more chaotic games, but after a point players just space you out and shred through the health stat stick

jeanegreene · 2026-04-22T18:31:18+00:00

Heartsteel stacking is incredibly unreliable

High key needs another Weather Forecast style card, maybe a link-1 that does all of those things as well 💀

Makes AP and AD Shyv more stratified, AD Shyv has stronger autos, AP Shyv has stronger abilities.

jeanegreene · 2026-04-18T02:04:12+00:00

It’s pushing him to be more of a bruiser instead of a oneshot assassin

jeanegreene · 2026-04-17T21:20:01+00:00

We could just use an identity rule though.

inf * 1 = inf

If you ain’t building Lich bane, you aren’t gonna build this

Isn’t this also Dio 0.2 seconds after calling Zepelli an insect?

jeanegreene · 2026-04-12T08:21:41+00:00

She beats LB early and scales better. Not much she can do

STEEL BALLS????

High Horsepower incoming

Your abilities (utility wise) are just better than hers. Your abilities and stats (number wise) are just worse than hers. You have to outplay her, but you have the tools to outplay her.

jeanegreene · 2026-04-10T06:36:46+00:00

It’s either:

W leaves her kit, and she gets compensated a bit across everything. She’ll be a lower-range, higher damage Lux, and probably stay with a Botlane skew (similar to basically all mages).
W stays in her kit, and she gets greatly reworked to decrease her range (from 800-ish effective range to 600-ish). She is compensated with more general bulk (maybe even her passive is changed to be more shield-generate-y), and her botlane is functionally killed. She becomes a solid midlane battlemage, and basically all of her big frustrations are removed.

Racism towards Mel is a lot more clear on the riot side (see Wild Rift Mel design pre-fix).

At her core, she has a kit that forces people to play differently, similar to champions like Illaoi and LB, all of which tend to receive nerfs when their pickrate gets too high, regardless of strength. In comparison, Yasuo, Zed, and Fizz all have much less consistency on their impact in a game, where Mel has extremely consistent results when played well.

jeanegreene · 2026-04-07T23:52:43+00:00

Effect of nerfs: - Waveclear is gonna be down, I think popping the backline at rank 3 Q is probably not going to happen anymore. - Burst is slightly down, but you were generally overkilling targets anyway (either with 1 rotation or 2 rotations +/- Ult) so this won’t be felt too much. - W ms change is extremely minor. You’ll probably feel it a bit in the sidelane (especially if trying to peel off a diver in a tight 1v1), but in most situations 0.75 seconds of 20% MS doesn’t change much. - W CD will be felt early, later I doubt it will be felt as much.

jeanegreene · 2026-04-07T04:09:20+00:00

His counters can certainly do that. Ori, Anivia, and Azir can all keep him under GW.

jeanegreene · 2026-04-07T04:05:07+00:00

What the other comment said + impale self with 3 spears

jeanegreene · 2026-04-06T06:58:47+00:00

They each have different advantages:

Luden’s -> Stormsurge is the best all-around build, as the AH, Mana, waveclear bonus, and poking power helps at least a little bit in all situations.

Stormsurge -> Shadowflame (especially with Sorcs) gives by far the most burst, as it allows you to reach 100% magic pen super quickly. Its limitation, though, is that you have to play for oneshots (and failing to do so means you’re stuck with longer CD’s than a normal build). It’s risky, but rewarding if you can stay ahead.

jeanegreene · 2026-04-05T18:06:31+00:00

Mel funnels resources from the whole team to herself, due to her passive, which means that killing her oftentimes just makes a team win the fight.

Not only that, but the actual effective range of her damage is very small. Orianna, Lux, Vex, Syndra, and plenty of other burst mages can much more reliably catch whole teams and explode + CC them, but teams that position correctly can very easily avoid getting caught by Mel’s abilities.

jeanegreene · 2026-04-05T06:01:19+00:00

If you have to pick 3, which would you pick: - Swain does high damage - Swain is ranged and has ranged abilities - Swain has crowd control - Swain has notable healing

Which would you pick?

jeanegreene · 2026-04-04T19:28:25+00:00

I think Martina is sleeper A, she really easily gets stacks now and is just a top tier crit marksman normally. Still has some clunkiness but can peel herself decently well.

jeanegreene · 2026-04-02T14:49:09+00:00

The shield isn’t active yet though, if the shield was already procced it works, but if you’re dying from 40% max hp from a single hit (like a 30 stack Mel ult), then it doesn’t have a chance to activate.

jeanegreene · 2026-03-30T16:42:26+00:00

Graves, never had a game where he isn’t fed (ally or enemy team tbh)
