most important part to mf is knowing where to stand and getting good ults off

use your e slow to assist in teamfights or right before you ult

don't overextend to auto

Um no

Go yomuu's into attack speed boots into edge of night into black cleaver

Then ga (?) and if the game is super long end it with a duskblade

That's what I've had success with so far.. Make sure you're maxing w second, it gives
100%!
attack speed and the 40% lost from yomuu's isn't huge
think so? Hm...okay I'll trust you
third best scummer of all time

I think it is... her w gives 100% attack speed, berserker greaves give another 35%, so the 40% loss isn't as much

also mf's ult does a lot of damage when you build like this and your team can play around it, even if you don't do well early on

I remember using ghostblade for damage more often when taking objectives rather than teamfights, otherwise I'd use it to run away or catch up, and it still serves that second purpose for me.. it's like 300g cheaper now and It also has lethality over armor pen, which gets stronger starting at level 12 I think (a bit after you finish the item)

Though the new serrated dirk is quite a bit worse on mf, as the old one had really good synergy with her q on minions and I'm not sure how much movement speed out of combat really helps her, though you move really fast with this build out of combat

That's for flex.

Flex and solo/duo seem like they are both getting reset (even though in reality Flex IS dynamic queue, and doesn't require one.)

it's preseason rank
it doesn't get you any rewards. if you finish preseason higher than you did season proper, it can help you in placements for s7

solo will be solo/duo :(

I think you get border/skin for gold on either ladder and then extra stuff for gold on both? border would only load when you queue for that ladder

I've been playing taric with knight's vow and redemption. I'm convinced knight's vow is overpowered

Start off going for face of the mountain - I prefer this to eye of the equinox because it gives 10% cdr and the shield is strong and stacks with your health

As Taric I take either refillable potion or straight up rejuvenation bead along with targons. Been like rejuvenation bead... also take courage of the colossus so if I land a stun I can get really favorable trades

Taric just has so much healing and shielding I can get away with rejuvenation bead and I'm usually healing for the adc

I think I like getting ruby sightstone before knight's vow as it gives quite a bit of health. Also the active which reduces item active cooldowns becomes really strong later on (it's even strong for knight's vow)

Item costs 2400, redirects 12% of damage your mark takes towards yourself as true damage

If you bind it to your adc and you're near them, they'd have an effective 250 more hp worth of mitigation (assuming there's at 1600 hp) PLUS you get 12% of their damage as healing for yourself, which likely overheals you

And then you've got 60 armor on a support item coupled with 400 hp which is really strong

Next I get Redemption - this items really cheap at 2100 gold - 400 health, 10% cdr, some mana regen (oh and you have a ton of health regen from all these items at this point)
And the unique passive gives 10% heal and shield power which is quite nice on taric having both. Also the active has crazy range, never mind being dead, I usually cast this far away to help turn a fight or on a guy I've just stunned. This heals for a ton too.

Next I go for frozen heart and locket of the iron solari - already have a ton of hp at this point so I grab the frozen heart mostly for the aura and cdr
Locket's shield is really strong and can help your team survive while your ult drops

Wow I just talked a lot about something pretty random but I've really been liking this stuff lately
