Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

You mean they'll congratulate each other as if no one else ever suggests or finds issues that appear on reddit.

Is it better to max Shadow Strike over QoP's E now because of the ridiculous low CD?

But insta nuke is better at ganking. And you need to gank a lot. Often people go 2-1-2 if facing a melee mid tho

I had to look up which one is E.

No because main point of scream of pain is aoe, it let's you farm AND teamfight. Shadow strike's utility is still pretty bad

I felt the CD was pretty neat and damage is still nasty. With a 4 sec CD, you can pretty much harass anyone out of mid and ganking lanes could equal two slowed enemies.

or am I just fantasizing things. I still max E but couldn't help but consider Q

People used to get a 2nd point vs melee laners because the debuff was 15s and with 2 points the CD was 16s. Now that the CD at 1 point is 16s nobody in their right minds will get a 2nd point. 4s CD is useless on a 15s DoT

Yes the ability to use it 2-3-4 times in a teamfight is cute but you don't have the mana for that early and in teamfights its still FAAAAAAR preferable to have the AoE damage from your main nuke.

The second point is also so that it stops bottle charges.

Can't u fit a full bottle charge between ticks anyway?

Regardless, I think the more powerful level 7 timing of 1-1-4-1 is still better than cancelling bottle-charges and then waiting till level 8 for 2-1-4-1.

Good point though, the more u know

Which it now does at level 1 with the change.

The change made level 1 shadow strike so much stronger and there is much less reason to get a second point in it.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

I'm pretty amazed Phoenix was only hovering at a 52% winrate before patch

I'd consider leveling Shadow Strike if I were in a non 1v1 lane.
