Edit: Morde is actually another guy I'd still build it on, but that's just habit, I guess, I didn't do the numbers or compare it recently. I like it on Rumble and Morde since I get hextech early anyway and I build and play them bruiserish, so the added spellvamp really does matter in fights (both have good sustained damage and the shields make spellvamp more efficient). | ||

These instances include: 1. When the jungler takes Exhaust & Smite. 2. When you feel comfortable enough to note take exhaust with your AD. For example, if you have an extremely powerful lane where you'rerealistically not in much danger (Graves + Taric, although there will almost certainly be some instances where an exhaust would come in handy) or when it's a farm fest bottom. To take smite you must be a tanky front line champion, Taric, blitz, Nunu. No smite for little girl Jannas. The benefits are: 1. Most importantly, the control of buffs. In Solo Queue it will be 10x harder to coordinate the cooperative use of Smite in baron/dragon fights but in Arranged 5's and pro games where you are communicating over voice and IF you played perfectly two smites will always beat one. Also there are many instances where the jungler has foolishly used smite and there is a dragon/baron up. You are da back up. 2. Extra farm for when your AD peaces out. 3. Disruption of enemy jungle, including stealing early game buffs for your AD carry. Next time I'm on support duty I'm taking smite! | ||

If I join someones team who already has platinum 5v5 rank, and I win 5 3v3 games as part of the team (and get like 1400 rating); will I get platinum at the end of the season? only if the 5 wins take you to platinum in 3v3 the queues are all treated separately, so you won't receive platinum in 5s unless you win five games in 5s | ||

When I soloQ smitecrank support, people think I'm trolling and dodge sometimes. Then it becomes a game where Sword of the Occult becomes a viable item for my adc and I'm just liek HONOR PLZ. | ||

The marginal security from a second smite on your team seems like a laughable reason to take it. | ||

IMAGINE: Smitecrank only person alive on the team or rest of your team is nooby and out of position, enemy's taking baron. You being the boss you are place ward down, GRAB ENEMY JUNGLER AWAY FROM THE BARON, flash into the baron pit, smite that baron and proceed to win the game. And there are many instances where they attempt to do baron in Solo Q the jungler isn't there or he doesn't have smite up. Exhaust = Good. Steal baron = Game changing. | ||

Revolver is good enough if you ask me. You pay 1200g for 12 spellvamp and 40 AP, and you pay 1300g extra for 8% more spellvamp and extra 40 AP (as far as using it only for yourself is concerned). It's not cost effective at all. I rather save 300g more and get a NLR. | ||
