Almost no knockup in the game is 1.5 seconds long, and there's a good reason for that. Fun fact: nami's Q is programmed as a stun plus a 10 second knockup that is removed as soon as the stun ends. | ||

I found it impossible to force fights as a lee sin support against anyone who poked or counter initiated fights. although I think he would be a ton better against the brawler supports. the problem ends up being their end game utility, neither kennen or lee makes much of a difference past 30 minutes with no items. | ||

Kennen's ulti is a nice peel for your ADC; you just don't initiate with it, you counter initiate with it. Lee Sin's ulti is the ultimate single target peel. As far as laning goes with Lee Sin, I split points between E and W. E allows for pretty nice wave clear to push out. Also you can ward hop all day for fun cuz you now have an excuse to have sightstone. | ||

On May 16 2013 12:44 Shikyo wrote: Solo laner that has no CC and deals no dmg is a pretty problematic concept though. She can give all her utility as a support all the same, can she not? She mainly scales with cdr. Wouldn't mind if they removed some that make no sense(Zac's) but Namis Q really would make more sense if it was a knockup. She shouldn't become op due to it as it's still difficult to land etc. (unlike Zac's stuff for example) I find your argument that it should be a knock-up because it looks like a knock-up and not because of balance a weak one at best | ||

In what order to shields get applied? If I cast Lux shield, and then cast Barrier, and then take an amount of damage equivalent to the Lux shield, does the damage come off Lux shield, allowing her second shield application to reapply, or does the damage come off of Barrier thereby wasting the Lux shield? | ||

I'd imagine it's in whatever order you apply them. So if you use Lux shield, then barrier. I'd imagine the barrier gets put on top of the Lux shield so damage goes through barrier first, then the Lux shield. | ||

Never mind landing her shit, let's wait for someone to even skill her properly first. Everyone does W max despite W having no CD scaling, poor per rank value scaling, and a mana cost that scales ridiculously aggressively (+15 mana cost per rank is really prohibitive early game). But everyone levels it first because she's a support with a heal ergo the heal must be what you max first. It's literally the same shit as people maxing E first on Lulu at release even though E is her weakest skill. | ||

From my very limited experience with Nami I feel that maxing W over E feels very underwhelming since her W is kinda mediocre unless you get all the bounces and it can't hit the same target twice. The bounce range is also kinda bad. At the same time, maxing E doesn't feel all that great unless your lane partner or you can really take advantage of the 3 hits. | ||

Q has the most aggressive damage scaling, doesn't increase in mana cost, and has CD scaling while the other 2 skills have increasing mana cost and flat CDs. | ||

He was advocating maxing Q in chat earlier. Get the cooldown low enough that if you can hit two stuns in a single mid game team fight you can change the tide of that fight. No pun intended. | ||
