Corki also needs to have the ability to use q+w+e without running completely oom. His mana costs are still silly.

I still think it's silly that Corki's R is arguably worse than Ezreal's Q.

Well, couldn't Corki do a muramana/black cleaver build? Synergy should be there...

Does anyone else read every single post of the GD threads? I was on vacation and my girlfriend was here (hadn't seen her for 6 months!) so I had 100 pages of april fools GD to catch up on.

I also usually read all of the NA and EU LR threads too.

None of Corki's spells would proc muramana, it would help with the mana costs but the damage wouldn't be so big.
Corki can gets BC stacks with his E, but even at max stacks, it's still less pen than last whisper. Not to mention that at this point you have no attack speed, no crits, no lifesteal and you're stuck with not the best arpen item. I have no idea what item you'd get next to be relevant late game.

RIP NA? More like RIP NA and KR, since the GSL is now completely split lol. idk what's going to happen now.

Edit for LoL-related Content: I guess that I can watch a crapton of OGN now though.

You should be watching OGN anyway >_>

Should check out the MVP blue vs MVP Ozone games from this morning if you havent watched them and have vod access now. Pretty cool matches.


Thanks for the recommendations. Always welcome, especially if I get too lazy to check out the LR thread (I'm rarely that lazy). Only problem with it is that I watch most VoDs during work and the Twitch iOS app doesn't support them (that I know of). =(

Long ago, Manamune->Tri/Cleaver was the way to build Corki. Straight Triforce builds were also seen, but it was considered an acceptable tradeoff between Manamune and Triforce (delayed damage going Manamune, but higher long-term cost-effectiveness and smoother mana use in fights. Likewise Riot wanted to preserve this tradeoff between damage and sustainability.

The pace of the game has increased since then--an item like Manamune that doesn't give you immediate effectiveness takes too long to charge up before its combat stats can be considered effective. Furthermore, as mentioned already, Corki doesn't have anything that procs Muramana, which makes the item even less compelling.

On the one hand, I can see why Corki needs a buff to his mana costs--on the other hand, it bothers me that it would contribute further to the ever-growing mana cost creep.

I honestly think the way corki is played should be overhauled: don't max Q first. You lose burst but since you can use it like 2x before running oom it tends to lose you lanes if you aren't going all-in all the time. With the newly buffed ulti Corki is going to be doing a lot of damage early game with nothing but ulti because he can get 2 big ones within 4 missles or 3 big ones within 7 missles

How about building him much tankier than your typical AD carry? Open 1 damage item (BT or BC) + zerker boots and go straight to warmogs before your second damage item. Gattling gun is ridiculously powerful if you aren't being forced to turn around every second and valkyrie actually does a shitton of damage. The idea then is that most bruisers will either have to stand there and eat your E + autos or chase you into your maxed valk, get cc'd inside, and melted instantly.

We could go back to Season 1 Phosphorous Bomb. That'd make the mana costs worth it.

I'm 28 minutes into game one but had to pause because of class. Pretty epic so far.

His kit is soooooo heavily magic damage though. (Bit of a catch-22. He has a pretty ok armor shred ability, but the entire rest of his kit is magic damage, and his only steroid is true damage.)

We are allowed to skip pages?! I end up reading over everything even the topics I find not so interesting because I enjoy hearing different viewpoints on a wide variety of topics.

I spend far too much time keeping a tab(literally) on the general discussion threads.
