dramonic · Thu Sep 25, 2014 1:05 pm

Maestro, you are wrong on so many different points in that Viktor post and it makes me sad :/
I don't usually comment in here, but damn, that's just setting people up for poor performance.

dramonic · Thu Sep 25, 2014 1:37 pm

1. The new hex core makes it so that Athene's Mana regen is unecessary, and while CDR is a lovely stat to have, Viktor doesn't scale at that well with it and his skills already have fairly short ones.
2. Saying Viktor has poor mobility is like saying Kayle has poor mobility. Except Kayle doesn't get her speed boost on a 4 second cooldown.
3. Upgrading your E first is nice if you want waveclear/damage, but the utility on the Q upgrade is vastly superior in the early-early-game. Upgrading E first is waving a huge flag asking to be ganked. MS and Positionning are god.
4. A fully upgraded Hex Core is nice, but far from an optimal first pickup. Going from Stage 3 to Stage 4 gives you 20+level AP and 200 mana for 1000 gold. The upgrade R is sexy, but upgrading W before teamfight phase is worthless and your level 1 ult DOT damage is somewhat whimpy anyways. That 1000 would be better off used towards getting you sorcs/sheen/NLR. If you get it without being almost 11, you're getting it too early (or you're backing at the wrong moments)
5. Your skill level order should essentially always be R->E->Q->W. Opening with Q gives you excellent level 1 trading (that empowered AA), but the AA scales with your level and not your Q itself, so just one point should suffice. THe shield and damage of the skill itself scales very poorly, but it does get very nice CDR upgrades as it gets leveled so you get better trading by prioritizing it over W. You shouldn't be using your W to try to stun someone in 95% of cases regardless, It's a counter engage and a zoning tool.

There appears to be an inhouse happening, so ill post more later.

If you itemize overly defensive early not only will you STILL lose the lane, but you`ll also be irrelevant in the mid/late game due to shit damage output.

This is also the reason why junglers who take blue buff away from their mid because "they`re losing lane" are idiots and should be hung by the balls.

Q's level scaling is pretty bad, but chasing powah?

dramonic · Fri Dec 05, 2014 2:41 pm

Let's assume for the sake of ease that you have 100 AP and are level 9.

Maxing Q first, you get 327 magic damage + a 130 damage shield, with an extra 185 from your level 2 E.
Maxing E first, you get 320 magic damage so the damage is essentially the same, with an extra 267 from your level 2 Q and a 70 damage shield.

You lose 80 damage and gain 60 shield.

I'm aware the cooldown/mana costs also play in this, but the E poke from forever away kinda balances it I think?

dramonic · Sat Dec 06, 2014 5:42 am

If you use your E on cooldown you'll be OoM about 3 minutes into the game.

Got into promo, lost my first game horribly. Played support Veigar in the next two and KILLED IT!

Well, 2-2-7 with getting my ADC fed, then 8-4-7 because support annie is too squishy for my ADC to get a shot in. In both cases one of the other lanes did great, but I feel like I actually played pretty solid to get my ADC in a good spot.
Am now Gold 3, yay~

I don't entirely get why it's not done. Event Horizon is a ridiculously powerful CC, and you can get some Q stacks through Targon. Like, what does Annie do that Veigar can't?

In post 38213, Klazam wrote:Cooldowns much longer

9.6 seconds at max CDR, which sorta naturally happens with morello/DFG. After a stun, he can stun again at 9.6 seconds and 17.2 seconds. Assuming Max CDR on Annie as well and that she launches her skills on cooldown, after a full combo (R-Q-W-E) she can stun again at 4.8 seconds on W, 9.6 seconds on W, 16.8 on Q.
Since it's unlikely she casts everything the millisecond it's off CD, let's say her last stun is at 17.2 (which is very generous in her favour). She gets 1 extra stun in in 17 seconds, and her stuns are shorter in length and have inferior range. Furthermore, Annie's stuns are all "instant cast", while Veigar's stun sits around for 3 seconds each time, so it's a really strong zoning tool as well.

In post 38214, quadz08 wrote:you'll also note that annie isn't really played anymore either. they both suffer from a lack of mobility, squishiness, only one form of cc, and no supportive abilities (heals / shields / buffs for teammates).

Technically if you get your Targon/FotM, you have a heal and a mediocre shield?

I also don't think Veigar is liable to get enough gold or farm to make him anything but a long-cd stunbot in the mid-lategame.

Well, one thing about Veigar is that his ult scales with enemy AP, so even assuming all you get by the time the enemy AP carry is full build is a dfg and morello your dfg+ult can still do 1500+ damage before MR. Of course your damage output is not mid-Veigar until later-game, but it's not unbearably low damage either.

=3

EDIT:

@Kaleidoscope: I'd run it into either AP heavy, teams that involve a lot of running at you a la Yi/Shyv, or if your mid/top/jungler are all AD.
@Siveure: I don't know about pre-nerf, but post-nerf all of Veigar's ability have higher base damage.

dramonic · Mon Dec 15, 2014 7:39 am

I'm not saying it's THE NEW THING, but I think it's stronger than people think!

dramonic · Mon Dec 15, 2014 8:06 am

Veigar doesn't have to flash ult to get three people stunned. He can just E and 3+ will probably get caged.
Then he'll do it again 10 seconds later, if the teamfight lasts.

Stunning is of course the objective, but the cage itself is a ridiculous CC as well. You can't just jump or dash through it like a standard wall.

EDIT: Annie's stun is easy/reliable on a flash cooldown, big whoop.

Kennen doesn't actually counter any of the mid laning ADs that well, in most cases he gets outdamaged and they all have a reliable(ish) way to get directly on top of you and slow/disable you (Talon E-W, Zed W-E, Yasuo E-Q-R, Khazix E-W, Panth W) at which point all you can do is ult and cross your fingers while balling away. If you have to pop your ult every time you get engaged upon, you're not a counter

Don't get me wrong, I love Kennen, but against bruisers, not assassins.

EDIT: Support Kennen is hilarious.

Just played a 50 minute game where our jungle udyr just jungled all game.
Like... 500 farm, never ganking, never splitting.
I have no idea how I feel about this.
It kinda felt like playing a 4v5, and then 45 minutes into the game there's a monster truck that just appears for the final nexus push.

The new delay on E is not that big of a deal.

You have to consider the casting time, which is .5 seconds. Add the .75 stun delay and you're looking at 1.25 seconds before a stun can actually occur.

For a guy with no mobility, one reliable/targeted spell every 80-120 seconds and no other forms of stopping people from jumping on him, that's huge.

It's still huge and reliable, you just can't make flash plays with it as much.
Big deal.

At what point does a W/L ratio become good?
Do you just have to be over 50%, or is there an established point over which you should be?

I meant on a champ.
I'm at 36-23 on Talon, which is 61%.
Unsure if I should be satisfied or not.

dramonic · Sat Feb 28, 2015 8:46 pm

Because AP champions are generally already gated in early game by their mana contraints, if you could still buy Negatron as an opener they'd just do nothing in lane.

dramonic · Sat Mar 07, 2015 8:12 pm

(diamond)

In the vast majority of cases, counters are irrelevant at MS level of play. There are very few matchups that are so horribly miserable that you want to avoid them if you're actually strong on a champ. Basically if you know what in a matchup counters you, you can learn how to play in that matchup. Once you hit diamond however, it's expected that your opponent is very much aware that his champ counters yours and wont misplay.

The best example I have is Annie vs Talon. You shouldn't win that matchup as Talon, Annie has a longer AA range than all your skills and if you dare engage she can stun and combo you before you can retaliate.
However, every Annie at my ELO (high gold) just Q spams the minion waves, effectively removing the stun threat if you just keep tabs of her pyro stacks.

dramonic · Tue Mar 10, 2015 5:41 pm

That would be really strong considering the low cooldown and cost.

dramonic · Wed Mar 11, 2015 9:10 pm

if you guys get manwithahat in one of your games...

Someone did the work for you.

TL;DR: if going offensive, build void staff,
unless
you have a shield or something similar that scales off ap.

It's a champ by champ basis.
Don't alwyas do the same thing.

Also the only thing that annoyed me a bit with the stream was that you didn't put the players face to face with their corresponding opponent in the bottom board.
YOu can drag n drop them to fix that.

You can use the keys based on side portraits as opposed to bottom, but I understand what you mean.

Full AP + Lich Bane on a skill that doesn't scale off AP doesn't actually do more than Full AD + Triforce + 100% scaling + crit.

back when DFG was a thing you could literally 100-0 someone with DFG-R-E-W-Q-E

Don't E right after your passive. Your E can multi-hit but not if the target isn't moving.

Game 1: No defensive stats/QSS is a ballsy move. You're not Zed, you dont automatically get out of every fight.
Game 2: Your mid and top lost horribly. I don't think you're entirely the cause of this loss?
Game 3: Shyv's damage is actually pretty mixed and the rest of their team is mostly AP, you'd probably have gotten more out of Sunfire/Randuin than FH. Also it's always better to complete your Bracer item than to build a second one.
Game 4: Heal Ignite on a no mobility/no CC champ is not something I'd recommend. Jayce is also a fucking awful matchup for Morde, but Team Builder so yeah...
Game 5: Everyone lost. See game 2.
Game 6: You picked Kass into Trynd. YOU ONLY HAVE YOURSELF TO BLAAAAAME! :p

So I felt like the best item to counter shyvanna was frozen heart, as a lot of her damage comes through her autoatacks directly or the %hp from her e + autos. Also, I was building warmogs. That takes 2 bracers.

Her only physical damage is AA and Q. The most significant damage when skirmishing with her is gonna come from W, E procs and Cinderhulk. Didn't know Warmog's build path tho so k.

Game 6 - I wanted an AP champ so we couldn't have everyone build armor and have us lose lategame, and I didn't know what to play that is a magic damage threat that beats trynd - I don't think it exists. So I picked for the team, and not lane.

Their team's only "bruiser" is nunu. Elise, Trynd and Jinx can't armor-stack. Against a team like that you couldve gone AD and it would've been okay.

I'm not trying to criticize, I'm just saying what couldve gone better
