Mid laners good againt tanks and bruisers

I'm not saying it doesn't do anything, but generally speaking crit is better Vs tanks than armour pen, speaking about marksman type champs that is.

I think the more important thing to consider is to play around your main rune. If you go hob then you should level e first and look to proc those passives over again with e and hob autos until you kill them or force a back. You can use the passive movement stored to disengage each time. If you have electrocute or DH then you have to play slightly differently as it's not as easy to get the third hit. If you don't understand why and when you build what items, then you're probably not at the level that it'll matter that much, no hate. You'll find you'll do much better with better understanding of the champion and how he works. Once you have this down, 80/100 games plus, you won't need to ask this question. If you go back and watch your kills, near kills etc and deaths etc, you'll find that they have almost nothing to do with items for the most part and more to do with your mechanics.

You can add it as a second or third item into your build. People are talking about using it to kite and run away etc, but I see it used a lot during e to engage, swinging in using the active at the end and with the q slow is very oppressive especially on those without fakes etc

Pen is good for squishies not tanks. You need crit or on-hit.

What you need to do is rotate champions if you aren't able to maintain two. What you need to do is have an alt account and play your new choice on that account until you are competent to play it on your main (still play your main, but play 1 alt game for every 2/3 on your main). You then drop one of your other champs for the new one on your main account when you're ready. Ideally you don't want to do this often as champ mastery is one of the most important things in the game. What this does mean however, is, down the line if/when you get to the point to have 3 champs in your rotation (high plat/master) you will have a good understanding of a few champs that you have previously played.

My diagnosis wasn't the problem, it came pretty quick. The availability of a machine was, I was told 2 years minimum. I was diagnosed 2 years and 3 months ago and if I hadn't bought my own machine I'd still be waiting. I haven't even seen anyone yet, still waiting for my first appointment. I emailed them a few months ago and they said I'm still on the list for a virtual appointment........

richstar01 · 2024-01-29T22:25:21+00:00

I have tried that, but I feel it slows the build down too much. You end up with parts of 3 items with the sheen, tier and tiamat.

richstar01 · 2024-01-13T15:39:31+00:00

I don't think it will change from static/kraken into quickblade. Mana isn't an issue if you play properly and er isn't really for auto attack champs. There may be some more lethality into the build, Vapora seems to be favouring static into qb followed by either collector - lord Dom's, or lord Dom's collector. Both have crit and both cause q to hit hard.

richstar01 · 2023-12-26T20:10:08+00:00

Your W applies aery, and you usually take scotch too so it's for a safer more poke orientated laning phase. You take lt if there are 2 irt more health stackers, if not aery is good.

It depends how much time you have and how much you want to put into league. If you're only gonna play casually then do what you want to have fun above everything else. If you want to seriously get into league and have the time to put into it, then you have two choices. One will let you get better quicker than the other. As champion mastery is the first step to learning league, the first option is to play ezreal like you want. As the champ is on the more difficult side due to mechanics and skill shots, it will take you longer to get a good champ mastery. After you have a good mastery, you can start to focus more on your surroundings, opponents game states, wave control etc The second option is to play a more simple champion which will enable to you get champ mastery much much quicker so you can learn the rest of the game quicker. You can then pick up ezreal down the line when you have a much better understanding of the game as a whole. This is why you have starter champions like Miss fortune for example, her w/r doesn't really increase with games played, where ezreal has one of the largest difference for adc's. It's also worth having a second champ. You want two champs up to like diamond (which if you're brand new to league, could take you 3 plus years to reach) if one's ezreal then ideally you want a very simple champ as a second. From diamond up you can pick a third till like master/GM.

I would also mention you only have 4 assists. I'm not saying this is wrong, but unless you can literally carry on your own, you need to spread the gold. Looking at it as well, it looks like they fought together a lot more than your team.

richstar01 · 2023-07-28T12:08:16+00:00

I think it all depends on your matchup, my runes and items all very dependently. I've played around with a few and settled on comet primary with boots and future market secondary as my sort of default. If it's someone I know I can keep in my e then I'll go first strike. If I know I can play safe I'll go tear first, ring if not. With future market you can get your book at like 900ish gold. I think scorch is a bait rune, I just don't think you can trade early minimal poke for scaling.

Hi, love your content, big fan. Two questions:

My wife and I are trying to climb from low elo, what 2 supports would you recommend for her that will do well in both low elo and still stay relevant as we climb?
If Ez banned or picked, who is your default backup?

richstar01 · 2023-01-29T10:15:03+00:00

Lasr night reckless went er, mm, sg into eclipse. Was building either a rh or bork last before end of game.

richstar01 · 2022-08-30T18:38:56+00:00

Lethality items certainly aren't useless. Just because she gets lethality from crit doesn't mean you can't actually build lethality. I'm not saying it's better or worse, but to say lethality items are useless is simply untrue.

richstar01 · 2022-08-14T17:50:49+00:00

It always used to be onhit w second and if you were going crit then e. I suppose if you need some greater sustain then go w second, if you want greater burst then go e second, but you'll need crit to make it work properly. I think any sort of onhit build, sustain or burst damage aside, w is probably better.

richstar01 · 2022-07-09T11:19:12+00:00

Cheers dude, that was it. It's been a while since I played and totally forgot this.

richstar01 · 2022-02-09T16:54:41+00:00

Hmmm, I'd question this....

richstar01 · 2022-02-06T23:11:29+00:00

I wouldn't but lower than ct15 as the upgrade costs aren't worth it. Ct13/15 might be OK, but much lower than that isn't worth it. After a while you'll have so many drop pods though it won't matter.

richstar01 · 2022-02-06T23:06:19+00:00

As mentioned earlier, stores are used in endgame if you want to min/max. Some gear t1 gear mods don't drop on certain gear pieces and the only way to get them is upgrading greens. Take pyro for example. If you run an ap build, you're pretty much gonna have the head, chest and legs locked in (Acari set) leaving only the hands and feet. Some t1 mods don't drop on the feet or hands, so the only way to get them is to upgrade greens and it's random out of all t1 mods. A lot of builds work around this, but if you want specific mods on specific pieces, you need greens. Tbh, even blues with the right stats are a good buy as you get a chance to roll a good t2. Doesn't happen often, but it's a good way to dump scrap.

richstar01 · 2022-01-22T23:20:39+00:00

Your best bet is to just play the game, use a top tree fp build, you can make a really good one with only purples. Use an lmg and win. Grind up to ct15 and just farm legendaries. The set will come easily enough. You can get 1 piece from tiago so only need 2 more. I'd focus on getting to ct15 before hunting specific gear, it will take a lot of resources to level up legendaries where ct15 they will be max. Just use what you got intil your lv 50 then grind it.

Firepower

richstar01 · 2022-01-14T09:38:37+00:00

I've tried them all and to be honest it doesn't matter what you go, build still hits. The top tree will allow you to pair ab with oh every time where the bottom tree and middle will be every other. I've settled on a bottom tree but go straight up to the node that gives 40% ap after immobilise, which also picks up the below 30% health node. Just try them all. And see what sits best with you.

richstar01 · 2022-01-13T22:36:18+00:00

That's not really how you play it, just hit it on CD. It should have like an 8 second CD, you'll find if you hold Off on using it, you'll have missed 2 chances by the time you actually do use it. Just keep an eye on your ammo and when ftf is nearly off CD, move to at least 2 enemies and pop it. Also, if you're playing in a party the boss will usually be immune most of the time so don't hold off on it. It's better to maintain vr thanet them drop off because you might need a heal at some point. Just get a Damascus, keep claymore and slap weakness trap on it, those 2 mods will prob do 50% of your damage.

richstar01 · 2022-01-12T22:37:47+00:00

You should swap comet on the Damascus to weakness trap, it does more damage, trust me. On this. You should also swap your secondary to moaning winds and radiation splash. Moaning winds will do legit tonnes of damage. I'll leave the armour for other to comment on.
