If you're going to do that why go 14-16? Why not 17-13? Something like http://www.finalesfunkeln.com/s3/#MGU7jwUa2kUrd

prettty sure 3 ad and 2 armor pen is gonna be better than havoc for your last 3 points in the offensive tree


Can not wait for ketara to come back and unleash mathematic havoc on this.

You're not respecting the likelihood of Royal picking Ezreal out of comfort for Uzi.

And given how fucking good Uzi is at Ezreal, it'd be worth it.

True, but I highly doubt any of the other teams would reasonably pick Ezreal for AD carry when there's so many stronger options out there. Ezreal has probably seen as much if not more play as a mid pick than AD (discounting Mineski games where Exo goes Ez like every single time and loses). On top of that, out of the 8 teams still in the tourney, most of them don't play Ez on AD that often anymore.

I would laugh if OMG wins the tourney with their AD carry Aatrox, Cassio, Yorick, Nidalee, Support Veigar comp

if you're going to discount mineski games you should probably also discount all the ozone games where dade goes ez mid like every single time and loses.

My original response regarding what team composition would win the entire tourney. Given how Mineski basically had 0 chance of winning the tourney, I don't think it's unreasonable to discount them. Discounting Ozone also wouldn't be unwarranted given that they're knocked out.

That being said, I'm pretty sure Ozone went at least 1-1 with Dade's Ez mid. Other teams also went solo mid Ez with reasonable success.

All these comps are making me sad. I started thinking about this because I was going to buy one of the major assassins, but then I figured that I might as well wait till they get nerfed after champs, then thought about how much I love my TPA skins.

But all the champs everyone is picking I don't have (save Elise, I will get her soon enough).

yeah it was just a joke about dade's mineski level play

TF is still TF. He still has gold card and ult.

Other than that, purely instinct. Sorry I have no insight. I also admit that I will probably be super wrong. Though you can't expect much seeing as I can't even watch the games hahaha.

It's actually really hard to ult goldcard now. You can't really press the vision half of ult with your gold card already locked in, or it will fade by the time you port. You have to have the card rotating, ult, lock card, teleport, and you still have a really small window to land your gold card after teleing in.

Wait, how is Varus outclassed? He still has a really good teamfight ult, decent burst, good laning... I'm just not seeing how he falls behind others.

Varus is good, but I think his weakness is being boring. When he was released I called him "milktoast" and that is what he is. Plus his "ideal" builds are not TF or Bork or IE first.

E first Varus rushes BotRK and has very good dueling, chasing and self-peeling, teams switched between Q first -> BT and E first -> BotRK depending on the comp and gameplan.

What? No they dont @ q first build. They go BT LW IE (maybe mix in a zeal there)

BORK is trash when you have 300+ AD. Trash. You want arPen and Crit at that point, especially with Varus's kit - when you go Q>E>W, you have a ton of physical damage with excellent AD ratios, so your priority is AD/ArPen > Crit > AS. You'll get some AS off your passive pretty much any time you fire a Q or E because it WILL kill a minion somewhere in its path. Your assist/kill-resets will give you more AS for cleanup power later in a fight.

3 AD and 2 armor pen would probably be better on a lot of ADs.

But not on Corki. I don't think I need to do math for that.

Havoc is good when you h ave abilities with good base damage and mediocre or bad ratios - Corki fits that better than almost anyone. You're right, you don't even need to do the math. It's not even a close contest between havoc and 3AD/2 Arpen

Varus is good, but I think his weakness is being boring. When he was released I called him "milktoast" and that is what he is. Plus his "ideal" builds are not TF or Bork or IE first.

Actually, I think it's more due to his lack of mobility (Corki, Ez) along with his inability to duel the popular assassins (Corki, Vayne). Ahri, Zed, Fizz can all very easily kill him in teamfights. Varus also doesn't push particularly hard (Corki, Caitlyn) nor does he really "hyper-carry" (Vayne, Kog, Twitch). On top of that, if you want a utility AD carry, you'd probably rather just pick Ashe.

He was really popular before all the currently popular assassins became must pick/bans cause his mobility wasn't that big an issue.

Note how i specified that I was only talking about the Q first build. A late BORK when you have 300 AD and a BT already is silly. (E first also got nerfed pretty hard but Q first was buffed because they transferred quite a bit of damage from E to Q.)
