I was actually wondering this but I don't know enough about LoL to do any proper analysis of the flask if you have no mana. Is it worth it to start flask+ward+pots on non-mana users or are there better openings?


Its insanly woth it even on non mana persons. It'll pay for itself on the fourth pot on mana users and the sixth use for non mana users. If your not useing it for twice that by the time you hit a soft level of being item full your doing something wrong.

Flask ward a mana pot and the rest health pots is really really strong.

my guide to analyzing, empirically, whether you should buy flask: 1) play one game with it 2) say to yourself, "ah, this is broken" 3) flask!

Flask gives 100 HP per use, while a regular pot gives 150.

For non-mana champions, the breakeven point isn't until your 10th use for HP gained vs gold spent. You can eventually sell it back for 90g, which would bring it back down to 6 uses + selling it.

I'd rather have 2 wards and a bunch of regular pots on my non mana using solo tops. That way I have 6 min of ward coverage already.

Flask makes me sad when I buy it. Although that mostly is due to the fact its got NOTHIN on the bottle from Dota its based on.

i made some suggestions to xypherous regarding flask and how it could be made more role specific like bottle is and he pretty much said he likes that it can and should go on everyone, and that anyway it helps prevent lane snowballing.

Without runes/courier it will never be like a bottle though It's its own entity really.

except the bottle isn't weaker than a tango, and it's comparable to salve.

Nautilus is great, I don't understand why he is not played more. His utility in team fight is outstanding and he is not terribly slow in the jungle.


Mana costs are brutal. He's fine when he has blue, but without it your run out insanely quickly. And since blues are given to mids 90% of the time...naut becomes a burden. That said, I agree he is underplayed and really strong in S3 jungle. You just need a non mana-user mid. Don't pair him with anivia

His damage midgame is actually bonkers with a wit's end. But I'd rather get items like aegis, FH or locket for tankiness (and CDR, his W cooldown is so huge even when leveled up that CDR makes a lot for him) if I can avoid taking a chalice early on.

Nautilus' only real problem is his first clear. If he goes through his first clear without getting fucked, then he's fine. His jungling isn't mana hungry after the first clear, as you only really need spirit stone. Because you only really need to use one W per wolf/wraith camp after the first clear, you don't need blue buff at all after the first one. But if you get fucked during your first clear because they invaded and took your blue, invaded and killed you at any point in the midst of your first clear, or died because you screwed up a gank horrifically at lvl 3 or something, or went full retard and tried to gank at lvl 2, then you're gonna be gimped hardcore.

Ugh, Chaox even gonna build Liandry's on WW. I know the base damage on his Q has been nerfed as hell (16% max HP still strong) but still, maybe guise could be 0K but completing liandry's is dumb on him.
Also complaining about his pushing capabilities when he gets himself oom Qing creeps instead of pressing W (which he maxes last).

It's not even an issue of mana. It's an issue of his first rank W being really trashy for clearing camps while the 2nd and 3rd ranks are astronomically better because the first rank shield pops way before you finish a camp (causing you to lose a ton of damage) and the 2nd and 3rd rank don't.

The CDR you get from lvling W is pretty important too. Out of all the standard junglers, Nautilus has the roughest early game because if he falls behind in levels early then he's totally fucked because the entirety of his clearing capability lies in his W. His W is his aoe damage and his "sustain". But if you get to lvl 5 without any hiccups then you cruise through without any particular problem.
