EPTi think it may be a legit build on many champs if you are capable of getting fed and snowballing, but i have friends at higher elo telling me it's just too much gold for a build with such a wonky power curve

Kayle is considered ranged when E is active, so she only gets 3 for harassing with it. Good to know thanks! Wow I had no idea how active these forums are! Man, I'm gonna get back into this game in a major way. | ||

Thanks  vern Maybe just try ArPen and see how much your AA harass hurts in lane. | ||

Since Zyra plants reapply the debuff more often than every 1.5 seconds, it's effectively full effect except that it falls off 1.5 seconds sooner. | ||

Does Kayle count as a melee champion at all times for the pickpocket ability? 2. No. If it did it'd be a bug. Manamune has a bug. Sometimes it doesn't show the cooldown. Muramana should have some visual indicator that it's on. | ||

The simple fact that they proc it is already huge in itself, though. Especially if the debuff works the way Teemo or Naut's do (ie. first tick when damage is applied, then 1 tick per second), as a EWW combo would allow that first pick to be applied a lot. It depends on what they call "periodic effects" I guess. I mean "half-duration" means 1.5s, but Swain's Q deals damage every second iirc, so the fact that the duration is halved bears no meaning, except for the final tick that'll proc Liandry for half duration (and normal damage since the slow won't be applied irrc). Uh... tl;dr: "half-duration" means "same damage per second" so a DoT doesn't get its damage nerfed since it'll reapply the effect anyway, except for the very last tick (but at this point you already did more damage than a nuke). Oh half DURATION not half DAMAGE. I really need to read things more clearly. In that case, then yeah, don't most DoT effects make this stronger? As I said before, Fiddle Fear/Drain combo ticks every second, so doesn't it do more damage than a single target nuke as long as you get 3 ticks off? You only get the double damage while the fear is in effect, but it could be pretty interesting. | ||

You only get the double damage while the fear is in effect, but it could be pretty interesting. Afaik, Fiddle's W doesn't refresh Liandry's. Just applies at start. Also reduced count of the number of ticks. Otherwise malz E would tick Liandry's for 5+1.5 seconds=6.5 seconds instead of just 5. http://www.reignofgaming.net/forums/strategy/champions-and-gameplay/29479-item-mechanics-liandrys-torment - AoE and DoT based spells halve the number of ticks rather than the duration. It may seem like a technicality, but a simple halved duration (re wording of the tooltip) would imply the full 5% over 1.5 seconds; instead, it's halved to 2.5% over 1.5 seconds. If it does apply for the full duration then Malz's E is half dps for 5+1.5 seconds or 6.5/2=3.25 effective seconds of liandry damage compared to a Ryze Q's 3 seconds of effective damage. Malz does slightly more than 5% of someone's life but the duration Liandry is on the target is longer. | ||

Anivia, Brand, Cassiopeia, Malzahar, and Swain are some that I've written down, haven't tried them out yet. I have high hopes for Malz | ||

Never mind, forget my freakout. So yeah, Vlad (since he likes Rylai anyway), Elise, Rumble, Anivia, Morgana (though iffy because Tormented Soil will overwrite it), and LeBlanc look like the ones that want this. Maybe Karthus, since Lay Waste is considered single target if it only hits one, and he can couple it with Wall of Pain. Vlad and Elise are the only ones I play out of those, but I'm sure we'll see it on others as well. | ||

Yeah, I'm thinking about requesting Teemo bans in all my games now. His damage output is fucking retarded, in addition to the fact that he rapes a lot of top lanes. | ||

Where does Ryze fit Guise into his build, though? I mean, obviously it's pretty good on him just with Rune Prison and Q, but he already has a pretty expensive and good build with items like FH/RoA and or Banshees/AA and or Manamune/Crucible/WotA/Void all being good on him. | ||

As annoying as he is in lane that's about as useless he is in a team fight ^^ Except now he can get BotRK/FH/Hurricane, have a fuckton of health/lifesteal, and deal % current health to 3 targets at once. It's a pretty big improvement compared to S2 for him. | ||
