I agree that at this point most gold comes from objectives and assists, it's just that I'd rather be nitpicky than let inane affirmations fly by when people pull out all the stops to make their vision prevail.

As for the match-ups I'm probably biased since I pretty much only play Lulu seriously (and I'm very aggressive at that), while I've been really bad at Thresh whenever I tried him, so...

Spellthief is better because it gives more gold.

What's dumb about this argument is that Sufficiency and Goumindong are arguing that the laning stats of Coin and Spellthief are equal. Which they're not, but even if they were, Spellthief would still be better because it gives way more gold.

The argument that Janna can't make good use of it is bullshit. In order for it to give more gold than Coin all you have to do is trade with the enemy duo once every other minion wave. That's not hard to do.


What is the point of buying a revolver in lane when you can just buy a blasting wand?

that's why no one buys revolver in lane.


TIL no one plays Vlad/Akali/Mordekaiser

It's also situationally useful for Kennen and Rumble depending on the match up and how long you want to drag on the laning phase.

The only reason it's bought on Akali is cuz of how good Gunblade is.
Vlad and Morde does just fine without revolver, and completely optional.

playing mordekaiser without revolver seems like torture to me

You have to be crazy to not build a single sustain item on Morde.

You can easily just rush dc with pot sustain, and just continue waveclear. Or abyssal if your playing against shit like syndra. Revolver is completely optional.

I've been seeing a lot of Gnar recently, did people just realize he was good or did some pro pick him up? 3 second stun on a bruiser, why did I not see him before now?

People seemed to initially be building a lot of damage on him so they failed hard but now they realize that just one damage into full tank is a lot better.

Do you know how much health a rank 5 E costs?

The point being, you need spellvamp EVENTUALLY. Otherwise the health cost becomes so high that you can't do anything.

So, if you need a revolcer eventually, you might as well get it early and save the pots cost.

I always thought that Revolver into WotA is a core item on Mordekaiser? Spellvamp is essential here.

Edit : Seems like Xaxus and Celaver are out of ROCCAT. They're most likely to sign Woolite and some top laner from a foreign country.

IMO wota is not required, but revolver is, unfortunately. Unless you are getting decimated in lane you need to get it first to offset youe health cost.

It's actually very problematic for Morde. His health cost is only inhibitive until he gets revolver, by which point his spells are free. IMO it is a bad design.

Of the health cost champions, I'd say only Mundo is well designed, maybe Aatrox. Zac essentially has no costs and simply heals all the time, Mordekaiser has no costs after spellvamp, and I hope I don't need to go into Vladimir.

Vladimir would be fine without revolver imo. It's hard to call, but if you need to constantly maintain wyour E with Q I think he is OK.

Revolver kind of ruined it.

Mordekaiser is not very strong right now, but he isn't awful either.

I agree with that. I am just saying that Vladimir in a game which revolver does not exist might be less toxic than his current form.

With the early large amount of AP by rush Dcap, you should easily be able to clear 2-3 waves, back, return without losing CS, and continue trading farm.

How so? He's like the biggest "please gank me" button in the game. Lol.

As a jungler I get giddy when I see people lock in morde, I know for a fact I can kill him at least four times during lane and take a tower / Dragon each time.

It's basically freelo. Only time you can't flat out kill Morde with jungle pressure is if he's bad in the first place and getting completely smashed regardless.

If you are playing against a W maxing Fizz, sure.

You can't actually outshove anyone else in 3 waves.

I'd be really curious to see some high Elo Mordekaiser games. I remember liking him near the end of s1 and the start of s2 when I was still a beginner, because he'd feel badass and be pretty tanky, but he's so outclassed as a slow melee champion with no cc or mobility and not much range now...

Vlad is along with Jayce one of these champs Irelia is supposed to be but I can't for the life of me. Well, Jayce I can, it depends wether of not the guy knows how to make his E cast while he's stunned (really that spell is so stupid in how it's implemented; I wish Quinn's E was done more subtly than basically suppressing you for a full second as she starts the cast too, since they only id it to avoid Rammus/Singed/Volibear counteracting it), but once Vlad gets a revolver he just heals to full between 2 trades unless your needed cooldowns are all lower than 8-10s.
