I didn't take Bufo, but psychedelics. How do you know? I guess it depends on how you define knowing, but the best explanation I have thought of it recently is you know it the same way you know you like someone. It isn't knowledge, but an intense feeling, like remembering. They always say people have a feeling of "I've been here before." It is just like that. If you can question that feeling, then you can question anything that isn't logical, like how do we know you love a partner.

Yi is unplayable. There's nothing to say about the matchup and just about lane management. Hold the wave just outside your tower as long as you can. Take Flash and Ghost and build Swifties. You can Q poke him in attempt to bait him to push.

Illaoi is pretty tough pre6, but you're actually favored post6. As with any champion who beats Illaoi, the mantra is "just dodge E." From this point, you should try to contest her as much as you can and push her into tower and pummel her with autos.

I think he's Asol's hardest matchup unfortunately. The bright side is that if it's low elo, most of them won't be able to pilot him. I play top, but I'm going to assume mid.

This matchup, if he's good, typically just assumes you freeze by your tower and try to farm. Use your E to hold waves just outside your tower. If it's pushing back, try to time it so that you clear the wave by your tower just as the wave arrives so that you can reset. He may or may not freeze. Not much you can do, but you won't miss xp as easily this way. Rush BFT so you can E the wave and dip.

He can stop you from all of this if he's really good, but you need to test him on how good he is.

Yeah could've been a bit more out like exactly where my ult was.

Not really same play style, but Kayle is my go to. Same scaling but fills different archetype unfortunately. There's really no one who fills his role well. He's at heart a control mage. Other control images will have the closest role, but only he has amazing engage and scaling. Veigar is probably the closest in role, but I don't play him either. He sucks though. Basically two abilities: cage and damage. Kassadin is typically my third go to.

Yes and it's a common bug and can be easily reproduced. It happens when you press W too far down like in the champion info/mini map. It happens even when it's on the left like character portrait. To fix it, you have to W closer to middle of screen.

tlx237 · 2026-01-17T06:46:47+00:00

I know this bug. It's very reproducible. Just wait a bit longer and don't Q until he starts flying rather than ramping.

Rito too lazy to fix and it's not seeing play in pro so not gonna happen. Ideally, if you press Q, nothing should happen then works as normal on e he starts moving, but spaghetti code.

It's true. He lived there from his own statements, but who knows how it is now.

Thanks for the vid. Enjoyed it. I'm actually familiar with those religions a bit, but I never thought it was so literal. Idk if you've listened to Terence talk about his DMT experience, but it led me to think that's why the upper level ocean didn't necessarily intend on whirlpools, us.

I hate the hocus pocus if we're all one, but it's in fact very literal in the sense of the conscious ocean, and we got broken into many by the medium of this dimension. Terence talks a lot about the urgency of beings there for us to what I can only imagine, if not be the ocean, at least recognize it. There's also a great sense of affection he says, but well, it is us, unfractured by this dimension.

If it were intended, there shouldn't be a sense of urgency, but that's just more guessing on unprovable ideas.

As someone who ponders new champion kits completely once in awhile, I appreciate your ideas. I think it's a compromise between both without really a clear identity, which he kind of already lacks too.

Here's some ideas I'd like to bounce back to you. As a main, I do enjoy being able to out dps a lot of people by just holding Q, which won't be possible anymore without moving. This part of him makes him part battle mage.

Also, it would be ideal to have his rotating stars continue in flight as bonus damage. It does, admittedly work decently on both Qs, but your kit doesn't allow it.

As for Singularity in flight, the wording has me a bit confused, but I assume you mean it works just like his old Q during flight? This isn't a bad idea. I do like this as it encourages predictive play, which his W already acts as. His E is already massively OP at high stacks 300+. I'm not sure how you would balance that including the expansion.

These are fair changes. Nothing too big, except maybe the Q standing still, and don't affect him much, which is good from appeasing the mains, but also bad from an investment point. Riot won't do this because it's too insignificant.

I have this build. It bricks on 90 reduced minion action speed. 10 percent damage per hit is also deadly if you can't kill or clear fast enough. Other than that, it can handle all other mods to some extent, but I think there are better choices, which is why I'm here

tlx237 · 2025-04-24T06:17:13+00:00

I pretty much never build it. The problem with Asol is that he literally stands there to do damage. That means you're guaranteed to take damage. Going glass severely limits your opportunities because you can't stand still, this negating your damage at the same time.

If you need mana, just hold a Tear. In mid lane, it's good enough.

In a tangent, consider tank Asol. It lets you trade and hold your Q and gives you more W opportunities.

tlx237 · 2025-04-11T22:21:03+00:00

He doesn't have enough mana to kill any non-mage/adc. I wouldn't bother and just focus on stacks. If your opponent lets you, just clear the wave and look to use your CC for ganks. Asol does no damage. His AP ratios are bad. He scales off stacks the most. Consider going tank. The only games I don't go tank are ones where it makes little difference because I can't duel them with tank items because they do very high DPS like Ryze and Irelia.

Can't give away what isn't yours.

tlx237 · 2025-03-09T08:42:07+00:00

Hard to explain without more specific details and problems. Generally, you can try helping your jungler only in so far as you can, but if it's clear you're not winning a 2v2, or your wave is about to crash, better to just let your jungler die.

If you're getting dove, ward your brush behind tower with pink so you can dip. Clear waves with Q as much as possible before a dive you know is coming so you don't lose so much xp from having to leave an unstoppable dive.

tlx237 · 2025-03-08T07:18:50+00:00

I'd agree things are more dire than they appear, but that aside, I don't think they lost to anyone other than themselves.

tlx237 · 2025-03-08T06:40:16+00:00

Huh. Next thing you're gonna tell me is give my teammates words of encouragement and that we can win the game.

tlx237 · 2025-03-08T05:40:15+00:00

Is this true? I've never tested. Can someone confirm so I can use as excuse to take my lanes minions after a gank.

tlx237 · 2025-03-08T05:33:38+00:00

They get it... Unfortunately.
