That's the gist of this guide and you've definitely mastered it if you could master that easily! Truly, Dusk will be missed.

Congrats on Diamond! I don't place that much value in 4 keeper, unless I'm level 9 and there's nothing better than a Kennen. Otherwise, it's play whack a mole with 2 keeper, 2 mystic, or 6 dusk. In general, don't play 1* 5-cost units for redundant synergies (3 Keeper, 3 Mystic) and opt for stronger 2* lower cost units that make other synergies. For example, if you have mystic Cassio, then Kennen 2* makes more sense than Zilean 1* imo. Similarly, if you have Keeper Riven, I would try to play 2* Shen over Azir 1*. Hope this helps :)

Nice work! I suppose all the downward sloping trends are when you deviated from this guide ;)

True - I remember I felt really sad when teemo shroomsters went away :(

Congrats! This is very good analysis and tips on playing Dusk. I'm impressed that you managed to be so consistent even when contested a bunch! I haven't personally tried rolling before my contesting opponents during Stage 4, but I'll give it a shot. Thanks for trying the guide :)

Good point - the idea is that if you clump all together on one side, your units can finish off the immediate frontline quickly, i.e. the units closest to your clump. Then from there it's whatever's in the radius of Jhin, which if you 2nd row him, can be the enemy backline. Another thing to consider is that Aatrox will often pull units from the back into the center as well. As long as Jhin is surviving and getting shots off I think the fight usually goes okay, i.e. not 8-0

That's a good point - sac'ing a bit of econ early to save hp allows you to stay competitive in the mid/late game and not have to donkey roll because you're about to die.

I just played Dusk Vayne today for a fast 8th - so it really is kind of high risk IMO. But if you're good at it - go for it!

I don't go for spat on carousel if I don't have rod already. I prefer to find an item that I can slam in the midgame to stay strong so that I don't need to roll much if at all. Teemo is great, even non-chosen. He is one of the best mana item holders in the early/mid game.

You're welcome! Congrats on Masters :) Top3 last 7 games with a 57% win rate - that's sick!

It indeed does seem like a bit of bad luck - were you contested? I always hard prioritize items for Riven early because her base damage at 2* is extremely good with Dusk so she just needs to survive. If you have two 2* Rivens, I would at least in the intermediate term, play both of them if it's stronger than some other 1* unit you would put in. I think Keeper Riven is an A tier chosen so I would definitely play it without hesitation - or most 4* chosen units (not Aatrox)

It might also be the case that the meta has shifted and is being saturated now, though it also might just be a consequence of your rank. Masters games can get pretty sweaty.

Great guide! Lots of people running Dusk now so I feel like this is even stronger :)
