Reign of Gaming

I looked at this and thought of three characters straight off the bat.

 

One mentioned above was TF, I think this will give him another options of waveclear that allows him to gain mana (full stack use Blue card + this)

 

 

The two I looked at straight off the bat are our lovely two AP based ninja's both with high movement speed enhancing abilities and spammable skills

 

I thought straight off the bat of kennen first him another wave clear without having to use E + W (allowing him to setup for escapes or engages better)

Then my mind slipped to akali and her ultimate its a spell has a lot of movement built in and is on multiple charges.

 

Unless i'm missing something this was my line of thought, I didn't even consider champs like lux, syndra etc.

Wow thank you everyone for the massive tips so far, I have been using a combination of all this info in games.

 

I really thought the E double damage would require the target to have been frostbitten already but its good to know you can do E into R for double damage.

 

Thanks heaps to everyone for build paths etc as well, I feel much better about the bird so far, I've had 5 games with her now 4 wins 1 loss so I feel like I'm ready to start rolling her in mid in ranked if needed (still will pick TF in some cases)\

One thing I have been doing myself as I'm still not great at landing Q's is putting 3 points into W before maxing Q, it seems to be ok as it gives me plenty of cut off room if the jungler comes in.

 

1 Question I have: everyone mentions either going straight for RoA or Tear, but am I still correct in most stages to start with a Dorans ring or is it worth going mana crystal x2 pots?

To late to call a bard like character :-P

 

but yes looks like a AP support/utility mage

Had a second game,vs a zed this time.

 

I did ok he started 3 x pots and long sword, by lvl 5 he had burnt through all 3 pots and I only had burnt through one.

baited out his ignite and flash with egg he killed me but died to jungler / tower (would of died without jungler)

 

1 last question

didn't really have a build path in mind just of built what felt right at the time.

I seemed to be very effective with low AP.

my build went

1x Dorans ring

First back: chalice + mana ruby and 2 pots.

Next back (first death) catalyst + blasting wand

then my build went something along the lines of

RoA

Lyandrys torment (sorry for spelling)

into Void staff (game ended we won)

 

Is there anything really wrong with what I was building, we were vsing a bursty-ish team but it was mainly mixed damage.

So I tried a little bit of everyones suggestions last night in some normals to gain a feel for it.

 

I have to say running teleport on the bird early made such a huge difference, I felt much more comfortable.

 

I had only one game where I got mid anivia (played her as support just for some lol's as well its kinda fun)

I vsed a kat, yes the hybrid pen marks and MS quints were jsut what I needed, forcing her to miss CS or take a stun did in fact her her a lot more then I thought, I was able to keep up with CS early (and managed to get an assist on her early when I told my jungler to come in and I'll egg bait)

 

Thank you everyone for the tips so far (please feel free to keep them rolling in) I'll try for another game or 2 tonight and report back.

 

 

My issue is I feel like I can't bully, landing a Q into E + AA does chunk but it requires a lot of mana, good line up (or getting into close range due to Q speed) and in the process my opponent can normally get in almost as good if not better damage with less mana (or resources)

Never really thought of running TP on her but that makes sense and yeah i'll try some more flat resistances (I normally use per lvl in most cases)

 

thanks for the input TheDevicer

I want to see a noxus support champ, something themed like swain / darius (more serious war type) then like draven.

 

A smart cunning support 2 steps ahead kind of person.

Hey all

 

I'm normally a jungle / top player, but I always duo with a support so most of the time (adc is popular role in low gold) I end up in top or jungle, but recently I have been going mid as well.

 

Normally I play Malz / Twisted fate mid, I really do ok with both of them, but the one champion I really enjoy mid is anivia.

My issue is I don't feel good enough to take her into ranked, I get crushed in lane by pretty much everything pre 6 (after 6 just afk farm with R then roam)

I understand shes a low mobility mage with high burst if you land skills, but my early laning phase (as a mentioned esp pre 6) just feels so crippling, I struggle to get more then 35ish farm on her and I feel so far behind, does anyone have any guides tips etc, if I walk away from tower its pretty much instant death (even with a pink on one of the side river bushes)

 

what do I do, what rune/mastery setup do you suggest, any tips or anything, I love this bird but I cannot make her work for the life of me.

I open tear + chalice but I feel like that doesn't give me enough damage early, any suggestions on what else to try.

I do also remember in regards to builds it was very standard to stack 2-3 blood thirsters

 

I also remember 4x Warmog 1xFoN and Mercury treads on mundo made him unkillable

°Malphite and shaco running around with less then 4 sunfire capes was considered trolling

 How could I forget the 5 sunfires Garen.
