Blitz used to be able to take thresh lantern while his hook was in motion, making it an EXTRA LONG hook if it hit. Now its janky and the hook only pulls to where blitz initally was instead of where he ends up from the lantern.

@selvestechristopher87174 ай бұрын
i think that pyke is too op as a support. A pull, invisibility, and his long range execute which gives extra money to those who did damage to the enemy. I'm probaby not the only one who thinks that.
@Selects4 ай бұрын
Pyke can definitely be oppressive in lane. He's basically been nonstop nerfed or having his scalings changed since his release :p

I found another twist on the bug. If you attempt to last hit a minion at the same time as your adc successfully hits the minions, it appears to count towards the support penalty. I discovered this after being successfully denied last hits by a rather unhelpful Vayne adc. As I discovered in that game, you can not only be not unable to hit the minions but stuck with three stacks on the support item for a very very long time (unable to execute or even get procs from poking the enemy).
@Selects6 ай бұрын
Honestly this wouldn't surprise me.
@Kyle-nm1kh6 ай бұрын
I knew they did something. I thought it was intentional hard nerf to support items. Imo, the csing penalty should go away entirely once 25 minutes have elapsed so that the supports can clear lanes strategically to relieve pressure

Maokai supp been op for a while now, been using him as support for years
@Selects6 ай бұрын
Me too, but he plays a lot differently than he used to especially with his max E mandate build he had for a while. With him building full tank rather than splashing AP he's more front line than he is sappling nuker. But this is the highest winrate/pick rate he's had in years, even when he was a mandate abuser so I think the title makes sense. He was also playable after the mandate change but his pickrate was extremely low compared to now so I think it was a good time for a guide.

@Selects6 ай бұрын
It's all my fault, don't worry. To be honest I was originally going to make a full complete guide but it would have been an hour long. I had to rewrite my script 3 times to just keep the bare essentials in. I don't think people want to watch an hour long guide for one champ when there's plenty of guides out there, so there is a lot of missing info. Learning to play Maokai support isn't easy to first. I originally picked him up a few years ago as a pocket pick and I struggled at first. He plays very different than regular supports despite having an easy kit. Every champ has a learning curve, even Yuumi. So I'm confident if you stick it out you'll climb. :)
@Radsfer6 ай бұрын
what champion u recomend banning for him? And mage lanes feels a bit scarier if i cant trust my adc have any tips against them or just dive in before they poke me out?
@Selects6 ай бұрын
I'd ban Morgana, it's the best counter for him but he has lower cooldowns than her so it's still a winning lane especially in extended fights. Mage match ups you usually have to wait for your adc to push the wave for you to get levels. It's really not worth you losing your HP for level 2/3 if you're trying to out push them. It's just how melee into ranged plays out. All mages are really easy to kill so it's basically just dodge skillshots until you find a good angle to go in. And if your ADC is bad unfortunately there's not much you can do. There's a lot to laning that I can't explain over just a comment but basically Maokai counters every single mage in the game right now bot lane so you should have an easy enough time. Level 6 is especially easy because your ult covers the lane or you can walk into river and ult down to cut them off. It's impossible to dodge so it tends to lead to a free kill.
@Selects6 ай бұрын
Two things I got wrong. I forgot they changed unflinching to give armor/MR when CC'd instead of tenacity. My point still stands when I'd try to take overgrowth instead in every scenario. Giving 10 armor/MR at max level isn't exactly insanely good defensively. Especially when HP works into literally every single damage type in the game. The other thing I got wrong was calling it "sled" instead of "sleigh." I'm Canadian. We call them sleds here, eh!

It wasn't about mirror matchups. IIRC Monte explained on a Thorin podcast that back in the days Koreans considered blind pick the ultimate display of skill. So in BO5s if it came to the last game it would be blind pick instead of pick and ban. Good old days.
