pro corkis have been doing d-blade -> boots -> option for a 2nd d-blade -> manamune -> triforce -> b-veil recently. 0/8/22 seems required IMO too since he does so well with buffs, needs mana regen and like most ranged carries, loves having low CD ghost + flash.

that build that fucking mogwai suggested before the corki buff, then went 2-7 with absurd stats in ranked games but still always lost and had teammates giving me shit for building like that?

*feels vindicated and even more pissed at 1400 elo players who blow dick and give me shit for no good reason*

Sure, sure!

But you did say Manamune on Panth and Corki, haha. I do remember that.

I said Manamune on Jungle Pantheon. I have never once advocated it on laning Pantheon.

EDIT: and to be clear, I still advocate it on jungle Pantheon, it still lets you stop relying on blue buff while also building your AD post-lantern.

EDIT 2: SEEEEEE:

admittedly, I was unsure of it at first before I transitioned over to ranked games and then stopped doing it entirely when it would always put my team on tilt, but I WAS STILL TOTALLY RIGHT AND YOU CAN NEVER TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME NEO YOU BIG MEANIE HEAD!

I'm almost 1700 now, if you're above 1600 I'll duo with you, but I'm not going back to the 1500s clusterfuck O_O.

lol, seriously, 1500-1600 is elo hell in solo queue and anywhere above 1550 is elo hell in arranged 5s (half games are stomping bad players and the other half is CLG/Regi's Team/L0CUST's Team raping you).

haha, na, Chrispy and I only played a few games (we always win though, LOL), and then he tanked his elo to 1500 without me.

I just massed WW games and got back into the high 1600s.

Back on topic, Corki got overbuffed, he's, IMO, the 2nd best carry after twitch right now.

I usually open longsword/pot on corki, you can really punish people coming too close to you early in the lane phase, I run mp5 in yellows to offset the mana usage. longsword > l1boots > manamune > zerkers greaves >deaths whisper > bloodthirster(If I dont "need" def items at that point, else I get it last) > chainmail > negatron > banshee's veil > 2% hp atk dmg thingie that gives armour.

Going QWEEERQEQQRQWWW usually.

Teleport/Exhaust (exhaust + Q makes you shit on any melee, teleport for maximum farming!)

I try to get red as much as possible since the lack of slow does hurt and I try to save W for escaping rather than chasing.

Been having a lot of succes with this, I usually farm "endgame gear" way before anyone else, I've been maxed at the 35-40min mark sporting triple elixir, and that's doomtime

I was told BR applied on every single hit of Corki's E, can anyone confirm or deny this?

depends on your team comp really

twitch > all carries for a long duration AOE ult (See galio/twitch, amumu/twitch, etc)

MF > all carries for laning dominance and mid game dominance

corki > all carries in utility and burst damage excluding post IE twitch, corki can do more on his own though

kog'maw > all carries for push comp (seriously sona, janna, kog, x, x is unstoppable)

Corki's really good now and destroys wards whenever he wants.

Destroy ward @ baron, wait for team to come, profit.

The 10% true damage on Corki's basic attacks - is it 10% of his base damage + AD boni from items/runes/masteries, is Sheen etc. considered, or is it based on the actual damage dealt (which should include stuff like crits)?

Idd, I love that! Whenever there's no teamfights/lanes to push/possible ganks I just fly around and scout for wards (helps with maxing manamune ^^)

Getting annoyed with watching people try and play Corki now that he's flavour of the month and doing awfully with him, just a few things I've noticed people doing:

Skipping Mana Regen - Don't do this. I watched a stream where a Corki has no mana in a team fight. His damage output is halfed or something and he has no escape. Stupid.
3xDoran's - I don't like this still. It delays your manamune or whatever so much and honestly, you have a damn good escape so why are you getting items defensively. Just play better and you don't need them. I don't know about the super high ELO, but anyone else, stop doing this.
Ward sniping - If there's no ward outside dragon, look inside as well. Any good player is going to move it if they know there's a Corki.
Gatling Gun - For the love of God use this properly. Streamers enrage me when they randomly pop it to kill one guy out of 5 in a team fight then get rolled by the other four because they can't kill them quick enough.
Red Rune - Jesus it's good. Getting it is a free license to go kill anyone. Watching a game where this guy got it once then went and laned.

More of a rant that tips I'd suppose.

god corki does stupid amounts of damage

with just trinity manamune and triple pot i was critting folks for 400-500 and a simple q-e-r combo just melts anyone. it's so insane, god it just blows my mind how much fucking damage he does. e-q-r combo just takes down 1.5k health in about 2-3 seconds the fuuuuuck

I"m pretty new at this so I really dont know what I'm talking about, but I read solomid alot and I'm pretty sure some of the posters there are generally pretty good

the Corki build that I've been using abuses his range in the way that your cookie cutter says, but it also abuses his ability to chase by emphasizing red buff/slow and your speed

its:
(regrowth pendant pregame)
philosophers stone & boots of swiftness for your first b
then you build triforce going phage for slow
then sheen
then triforce.
then it follows with like AD and shit

I typically farm w/e side is closer to red buff then at 6 i get it with my partner, it makes chasing down ur lane amazingly easy with ur mid OR you can get it as mid and it makes ganking a joke, plus with boots of swift you dont lose much time if ur gank fails or something

is this like terrible or should I be using the cookie cutter or manly build you put up? i really like the movement and chase factor cuz I can get a lot of kills just past their turret typically and it makes ganking a breeze for the early lead, but idunno anything really X_X
