That's how it normally is when a new champ comes out though? :s
Rhav has been raging so hard cause every single one has been horrible lolol.


I'm pretty sure he just sucks...

I havn't seen a single good one yet. Whereas like every other Lulu just like killed things as a support.

Hecarim's not good at jungling. He might be useful top sometimes.

People just are hesitant to adamantly call him a failure at this point because the general community backlash against judging a champ immediately.

Hecarim ganks are actually stronger than most at lower levels of play. He is just so fucking fast in your face. If you didnt have a ward to see him coming, youre dead. Obv not as good at higher levels because of better wards/map awareness/reaction time, but I was practicing my mid today and this one game, vs Vlad, I got caught a couple of times. T_T
Do not regret. Always forward, never back.

It's not a practice limited to LoL. It's accounting for the mental margin of error "My first impressions tell me x, and even though I feel x is most likely, I adknowledge that my and/or the community's judgement could be wrong". As we play more games with Hecarim (increased sample size), we can reduce that margin of error and make a better judgement. Although many players are just knee-jerking than being stastically aware.

I'm pretty sure people are trying to build him like Skarner which doesn't seem to work. Just triforce for dmg and then just reverie, HoG etc just feels bad on him. Better build like olaf or smthing, I dunno.

seems to me he's a failure as a jungle for sure, possible top lane viability but not enough data

Dunno, a friend of mine steamrolled with hecarim today. Jungle, building him kinda like skarner I guess, not 100% sure of his builds. Defo triforce though. 1600-1700 elo for whatever it counts.

Edit: Not just one game, was more like 10 ^^

Every hero can become fotm, no matter how good or bad. I don't think we can judge Hec just yet, especially with how unplayable the server has been.

The AP ratios on his W and R are really high, I think he could be really viable mid actually.

Building something like early sheen into Hextech+Lichbane.

His W is SO strong with high AP.

And see, I have many doubts about AP/Hybrid Hericam, but it's plausible that it might be quite strong. And NO ONE would have seen it coming with first impressions. You need to let builds, matchups and skill execution pan out before properly judging a champion.

Yes, that was the joke of my post mr. smashdrizzle sir. No matter what, I'm essentially still right. WHAT NOW?!

But yeah, what you said is my opinion too. Although, my reasoning behind we can't properly judge him yet is more from people not figuring him out fully yet. All new champs take a while to figure out. This bs happens every patch and it's become kind of a big joke to me. :>

this is all from observation and reading things as I for obvious reasons have not been convinced to puchace him, but clear speed is a big part of his problem.

but the other half is everyone talks about how much work he can do with triforce, which is obtainable much quicker with top lane farm, if people can find matchups he can handle.

Actually wow, Hecarim has a 150/325/500+1.2AP ratio on his ultimate. That with W.... might be worth building around.

what are you gonna do when W is on cooldown though? try to last hit with your 25 damage Q? the only reason kass and fizz can work as melee AP's is because they have sick burst damage to 100->0 someone at 6 combined with amazing mobility. hecarim has like no burst damage whatsoever and can run really fast once every 24 seconds.

the best thing i can see going for hecarim mid is that his Q does so little damage that it'll be sick good at setting up last hits on ranged minions under tower when you get completely zoned by pretty much any and all ranged harassment.

You clearly havnt seen the burst of his R+W combo with lots of AP. AoE burst at that with a CC attached for good measure.
