Obvious, isn't it? Sunfire cape is the same as ever and cheaper even, its damage even got buffed back to 40dps, whereas all the other tanking items got nerfed to shit. For example Randuins is now far worse than it used to be.

Among defensive items, Sunfire, Warmog's, and Locket definitely benefitted the most from the S3 patch. Aegis and Visage got sidegrades (less cost-efficient but more slot-efficient), and everything else seems meh.

Wait am I missing out on something? isn't Randuins the best single slot individual armor item in the game? 700 hp + 70 armor is the best defensive armor/effective hp item you can get.... I dunno if cost effective, but should be highly slot effective.

edit: lol, 500 hp~ ma bad.
for some reason thought it gave more. The active not as strong as before, but still pretty good, and I'd still argue most slot effective; effective hp (against physical dmg) item in game.

Now the real question is do we call this SunMogs or WarFire? I kinda like both.

"Tried giving malady a try on Twisted Fate and I'm really liking it. My core winds up being malady, twin shadows, zhonya's, sheen and then whatever I want, either deathcap, or nashor's. I feel like my dps in a teamfight isn't solely dependant on cooldowns and I'm really liking twin shadows for ult ganks. anyone else experimented with TF builds?"

I really hate to repost this but everytime I post (not very often) I always get bottom of page and never get very many answers. Would love if Monte or Yango could drop some knowledge bombs on me please

Randuins is just about cost effective with the active valued at 350 gold.
slot effective doesnt really matter that much early game so sunfire is great early and warmogs is the only good regen item

randuins something you only really want lategame now when ad carries are gettin real fed.

Twin Shadows on TF is ok. Not the best but it has its uses.
Malady is terribad though. TF doesn't auto attack that much. You want more AP/Pen for Wild Cards tbh.

Misaya experimented a bit with Twin Shadows TF. He said he kind of liked it, but not necessarily better than the Hat/Lich/Zhonya's normal stuff. Depends on the game.

Two things come to mind.

1) I suspect you'd open up with your initial salve of spell damage before autoattacking in a teamfight. That mean you open up with burst damage but then you have an item that encouraged prolonged autoattacks. You're not going to get the benefit of MRes reduction until the second round of burst damage (which isn't guaranteed).

2) Your autoattack range is 525 which is even lower than Vayne, and you're amazingly squishy. You have to put yourself in a lot of danger to take advantage of Malady while waiting for your CDs, and will probably die if the other team focuses you. You don't have lifesteal like AD Carries to stay alive longer either.

A stun ever 2 seconds isn't good enough that you need the slow active on twin shadows? >.>

If you're not in range for stun, then that means you're not ulting correctly.
TF's range is pretty lame, you're not gunna be able to kite correctly while auto attacking. Standard AP tf build is probably still best, despite malady change. lichbane/deathcap/voidstaff/zhonyas/etc. TF's str is still his abilities to provide strong cc in early game ganks (the stun), and map presence. Then in his midgame his ability to split push, provide constant stuns in team fights, while doing very strong bursts. The brilliance of TF is that his CD's are low. Essentially this is how team fight works with TF. Stun. Q. Auto attack once, Run away til CD's are backup (or auto attack if you're completely safe). Auto attacking should not be your primary source of damage on TF.

Subbing for Meat Playground in TSM inv. It's off stream though and I'm doing just this game =(. I'm really nervous, first time in a competitive match since s1. No idea who the enemy team is though so hopefully I don't feed and lose.

Got Lee Sin at least :O

While this is true in a sense, having Twin Shadows opens up ganks that you wouldn't otherwise try because of enemy mobility skills/etc. due to the difficulty of placing ult.

There's plenty of openings where Twin Shadows can ensure your stun. It's extra MS and a slow active, wtf.
It's not exclusive to just ulti gonks. <_<
