TakashiX a dick?

I had drinks with him at one of the MLGs....Raleigh I think....and he seemed like a pretty nice guy.

In fact, I wish he would start streaming again.

What do people think of Zephyr as like a fifth or sixth item on AD carries? It gives pretty much everything you want on most ADs minus the CDR (but some ADs like CDR). Same AS as PD and double the move speed but you don't get crit chance you get 20 AD and tenacity.

If you go something like Warmogs (like Rekkles did some in S2) or GA instead of QSS/Mercurial Scimitar I think that Zephyr might be one of the best sixth items to get as it gives you a nice combination of stats while also giving you some survivability by allowing you to actually build tenacity. Maybe even with a QSS/MercSci it'd still be better to get a Zephyr instead of another PD or whatever.

It gives ms and tenacity so it's better for kiting but worse for damage output (trade utility/safety for crit dps and better pathing).

I still think you should keep qss as-is if you get it until you're outta space, then you upgrade to MS (completing the item doesn't offer much).

A little late to the Liandry's discussion, but I come bearing important information.

Specifically, Liandry's does not function the same as Teemo E or Nautilus W. New sources of magic damage interrupt and overwrite the previous proc instead of extending it, meaning that if it was just about to tick it will reset before dealing damage. The practical upshot of this is that DoT abilities, Null Zone or Malefic Visions for example, have a tendency to "munch" procs and eat a lot of the potential damage. Liandry's ticks every half second, so you would normally expect 10-11 ticks when using the aforementioned abilities. In fact, you'll only see 6-7, or potentially fewer if both are used in conjunction.

Ultimately the amount of damage Liadry's will deal with DoTs is no better than a single target spell in the ideal case, and worse if two or more DoTs are out of sync.


You're a straight up mechanics guru lately. What gives?


Lately?

Should point out that I'm not necessarily suggesting you don't get PD. A lot of AD carries in S2 were running zerker+IE+PD+BT+defense item+second PD instead of picking up a Last Whisper.

I think it's possible for Zephyr to be picked up in place of PD on some champions but likely not because the crit chance not being on Zephyr is pretty damn huge.

I tried Zephyr. The lack of crit % hurts a lot....

I think the combine cost is too high. It's a 1200 combine where other AD items like IE, PD, or BT all have like 600-700 combine costs. You don't even get a lot for the 1200g. Zephyr combine gives 10% Aspeed, 10% MS, 10 AD and tenacity. The MS is nice but that's a terrible deal overall. Merc treads are a much better deal if you need tenacity..

I'm not sure if some of you read GD or not, but the QQ about cleaver is down right hilarious at the moment. Reading the GD hasn't been this funny since Darius was released.

Even if you don't go IE?
I was thinking of BT -> SotD -> Zephyr on someone like Vayne (take advantage of SotD in ult, as well as to heal up).

Meh, I think the nerfs they're implementing for BC is a bit too much (in PBE). Just make the passive unique, and the rest shouldn't be touched.

What they really need to change are the items that spritstone builds out of.

Not worth building? Ancient Golem seems alright on tanky junglers who use mana (which is a decent portion of junglers), hardly ever see the other two though.

flaming in video games, big deal these days.
i don't get why would u tease someone for being pwned and then do not expect some kind of retaliation. there's no reason to make a big deal out of it anyway. if you care about such things you're just wasting your time
anyway that's why love loci stream, smooth as silk :>
