Seriously though, destroying people with near permanent run speed + attack speed while catching freaking axes? How badass is that? I probably sucked with him compared to what real dravens can do, but I had fun and wrecked. Oh, also. Lolrecorder sucks. My game wouldnt start up at the beginning of matches because lolrecorder was stopping it somehow. | ||

Although I would still like that and nerf his numbers very slightly, because it would make the whole champion much more cohesive. It's one of the major reasons he didn't click for me. His W in theory should be a seamless kiting/chasing tool, but in practice having to stop to cast it and auto makes it awkward. Not completely useless, just really, really awkward. It feels like running into a speed bump on a racing course. | ||

It feels like running into a speed bump on a racing course. I did find it really fun to shoot W, Ult, and dash backwards with E all at once and seem incredibly cool, and I think if that could work on all points of the spell then Lucian would really be brought into the spotlight. That said, I still find him the most and interesting adc, he's one of the only ones that can consistently duel a Riven.

It used to be the most godly waveclear in the game because there were basically zero champions who could do that, but not anymore. Even in her prime there were a bunch of champs who could screw her rather easily, dedicated pushers like Malz, Morde, Heimerdinger, Galio, Brand after his first back, etc. (Lux could too, took a bit more time though. And the fact that a lot of champs built RoA 1st item back then also played into that situation, since Morg clears off of base damage and they all skipped AP early.) Obviously they weren't all optimal/viable in competitive play at that time, but in pubs? That'd be like saying "Karthus is OP, can't stop his farming and he scales hard QQ" while ignoring that Syndra, LB, Veigar, Talon, etc. exist (a few months ago I'd have said Fizz/Ahri but they're FotM now). On October 22 2013 12:40 Maxyim wrote: Awesome, thanks! Also looking at adding Trynd (top or jung if they have a strong counter-jungler when it comes to ranked, yeah Fiddle is super easy to mess with) into my repetoire, what do you think about that? Also, what are your recommendations on backup mid and AD carries to train on in case TF / Corki get banned in games. Not interested in Ezregaybait, way too common imo. Maybe Ahri and Varus? Maybe Anivia as well for the lols... I'd say Orianna since she's more teamfight-oriented than TF and does well against assassins (who TF's weak against) in general (I believe Diana too? I find her fun to play, and her ult mechanic makes it easy to roam, no huge cd). If you want a backup in the "another pusher/roamer" sense, Kassadin, Ahri, Fizz all strong roamers, all banned often though, and only Ahri really pushes. Ziggs can assist fights from super far with his ult, his passive rewards auto-ing like TF does, and he pushes/pokes super well. And a veteran will like ou (5HIT I think?). On October 22 2013 13:45 GhandiEAGLE wrote: His ult is good, honestly. It's not fantastic but it really is underrated. It doesn't have the same dps as his autoattacks, but until people stop seeing it like that they wont see how useful it is. Autoattacks cant be shot while moving/dashing, and they don't allow you to be able to deal damage from anywhere in the fight. "It's too hard to hit Pantheon's ult, you need to cast behind them it's not intuitive, and you scale badly because without escape you can't dive 1v5 and assassinate late game, waaah!" Well maybe because that's simply not how the champion's supposed to be played, duh? >< Gets me so annoyed when people refuse to switch on their brain or adapt their playstyle, because I'm afraid if they complain enough Riot might listen to them. | ||

I probably sucked with him compared to what real dravens can do, but I had fun and wrecked. Oh, also. Lolrecorder sucks. My game wouldnt start up at the beginning of matches because lolrecorder was stopping it somehow. Draven is really good in lane, though the change to his passive made it less pronounced. He does so much damage early with those spinning axes. He needs to snowball to be relevant late though. His lane match ups seem to be decided much more by the enemy support rather than the adc compared to other marksmen (e.g. he can't ever catch an axe vs Nami). I think he is highly underrated and has a lot of damage potential. Having two spinning axes up for any period does a tonne of damage, but it is ridiculously hard to do in team fights. A shame he has fallen off the competitive map, pros could get a lot out of him. I remember being really impressed with Wild Turtle Draven for example. Just ham all day. | ||

The only champ I really lose lane to is Malzahar and the only other matchup I have a hard time with is Orianna, maaaaaybe Diana. She's really not as bad as people make her out to be. Her sustain is crazy and her ult is strong and as much as she might be reliant on hitting Q, it is a really strong spell on a reasonable cooldown. It's also the exact same missile speed as Amumu bandage so it's not THAT hard to hit. I do draw target bans in inhouses with her as well. Not that it makes her a better champ, but I seriously think she's fine up until pro level. | ||

I promise I will not say Lucian is bad ever again (just watched a Lucian beat a jinx with a score of 7/0) | ||

I tend to get shut down, and my shield is like a neglect-able factor that she just bursts through like cake. | ||

As a Syndra player, I hate it when the Morgana just farms at turret, as in very little pushing at all. Then call in your jungler. Morgana shield makes it hard to get a stun off and escape a gank. Syndra isn't the best roamer (not bad, but certainly not as good as other mids), so keep that in mind. Once you get some items, you can start pushing again. Play safe early (1-9 ish) Don't ever go near minions. Your short range will mean you'll get harassed and bullied to death. Never go for a fight either, a 3 (or even 4 or 5 if they are good) sphere ult will burst your shield very quickly. | ||
