Ahri is a friggin strong midgame. I've nagged Jacky about it a lot but Curse doesn't trust him to play her. Scarra also said it's takes too much practice to get good with her. But R+E not too difficult and is a 1500 range catch. She also kites like a beast.

Good to see some more Ahri play, she went unpicked for forever.

I was wondering why I saw Jacky play Ahri more in solo queue and scrims. Every time I see it in scrims he does quite well.

What is this Karthus build? Gotta wait 4k gold before you get big AP.

Why is Regi building so many mana items? RoA, chalice and now tear. I guess it helps split push and objectives.

I think his Ahri is LCS ready, at least there's no harm in trying by this point.

The only thing I can think of is that the chalice is to stop ahri from bum rushing him once he hits 6 with the extra MR and will give him some extra mana regen the lack of tears early provides.

Roa and tear are pretty much standard. Chalice was an early buy to stay in lane vs ahri. Ahri destroys Karthus without magic resist and would be able to dive him at lvl 6.

I thought he had gotten Chalice instead of Tear to guard against Ahri's burst and was impressed by that decision, but now I'm seriously questioning not rushing AP if he's gonna get both mana items.

He'll probably sell chalice later. Karthus can still charge tears really fast even though he bought it late.

Maple going BT + SOTD for the mega burst o.o
