Dunno what ur doing with tide but since his E requires maxing to properly ancient clear now, I don't think the 3 in w at 6 build is good anymore. You likely want just e/w/e/w/e/r/e/w/q/q/r/ i thin. And u un-updated ur WW guide that we covered shouldn't be taking W at level 2 if you aren't also taking it at level 3. Either Q/W/W/E/W or Q/E/W/W/W (or non-W maxing builds could be legit but I'm not convinced. W owns) | ||

Batrider will change 3. typo on WW Opinion on starting items for WW? | ||

So I don't really have recommendations. I think he definitely needs at least 1 clarity though. Basically this. You have the luxury of having some flexibility if the other support actually helps out, but that's always a crapshoot.

You likely want just e/w/e/w/e/r/e/w/q/q/r/ i thin. I'd still go EWWEE. The damage reduction on W is more significant for your survivability/lane pressure at level 3, and you don't really want the mana cost on E to grow too aggressively at early levels. 3 W by 6 is ok, but it's super situational depending on how fast you're getting levels relative to the size of your Ancient stack. | ||

Looks like Bladefury is being maxed now. Few pros are playing him, but thus far, it looks like Agh and Bladefury are back in rotation. | ||

Aggro dual lane jug in a lane where bladefury max gives a lot of kill potential. | ||

But if you had to pick one I'd still stick with the current 1-1-1 stats phase MoM manta guide for now. P.S. It was really cool to watch the pro-games over the past 2 months as players experimented with wildly different skill and item builds on him and watch it pretty quickly converge to a standard. | ||

I agree, but I stick to the Lane/Middle/Jungle style for simplicity and 2. to limit the amount of guides and builds I have to update. | ||

I've said this before, but I agree that your supports should always be getting tango+cour+obs in their starting items. 1p4 is like 4 times more common than double supports in pubs, and even then the second support starts building a null half the time anyway. | ||

People are still playing around with what works best right now, technically 2-4 ranks of the crit are less efficient than the UI says (it uses PRD i think, at 25% it's really 24.9%). By this I mean wait like a week, when magnus first came out every pro was going battlefury on him. | ||

He's still going to be strong, it wasn't a morph tier nerf but a single loss doesn't really say anything about him, he'll feel weaker going the non-stats build too because of the agility nerf. | ||

I think his build is slightly off as I feel early on relatively weaker, but late-game; despite higher levels, I'm not dealing the damage I need to deal | ||
