In the beginning dump points into Double Up to really bulldoze clusters of enemies, at level eight start dumping points into Strut to help you kite enemies while your tank tackles them, and start seriously upgrading Make It Rain at level 14. Glacial Augment helps a lot with t
Ssumday also had a solid game during 100 Thieves’ first game of the week against TSM, but couldn’t manage to get the win alongside his struggling teammates. During week 5, Ssumday led all top laners in KDA (kill/death/assist ratio) with 6, while also managing to get a whopping 3 solo kills, cementing himself as one of the week’s best players. Currently sitting in 6th place at 4-6, 100 Thieves will continue to count on Ssumday to be their driving force for the remaining half of the sea
Dignitas went through even more inconsistency in the following Spring Split, benching their new jungler Jonathan „Grig” Armao in favor of Matthew „Akaadian” Higginbotham. After missing out on playoffs, Dignitas dropped Grig and acquired jungler Joshua „Dardoch” Hartnett and top laner Omran „V1per” Sho
Ability Resources : Depending on the champion, this could be energy, fury, or mana. Mana is indicated by the blue bar and slowly fills back up over time. Energy is the yellow bar (recharges faster than mana but max value cannot be increa
This build has you focus on becoming a powerful team fighter through ADC. Dark Harvest, Cheap Shot, and Eyeball Collection help you take down enemy champions and grow stronger with each fallen body. Essence Reaver helps you use your abilities more often and Rapid Firecannon lets you keep up the pain with your ba
With the season just halfway through, it can be argued that all five Cloud9 members are worthy of winning the Spring Split MVP. Each of them are dominating in their own way, but perhaps none are more deserving than Zven. Playing excellent both mechanically and mentally, Zven along with his support Vulcan have dominated the bot lane this season, and week 5 was no different. Zven played an excellent Varus against CLG, who Cloud9 unsurprisingly beat. What was surprising, however, was Cloud9’s choice of bot lane in their second game against Immortals. Zven actually played „support” Senna, while Vulcan went Tahm Kench, acting as the „carry.” This is a strategy similar to what Dignitas Academy employed in their matchup against Golden Guardians Academy, where AD carry Fenix went Senna and support Olleh went Galio. Fenix „supported” Olleh as he farmed with Ga
This bears many similarities to other builds, but focuses more on last hit kills and ganks to serve your team. Legend Bloodline requires you to do this to get stacks to boost damage and Coup De Grace helps you get those kills when champions are woun
Aphromoo also explained how the team makes transitions easier for the new players. „We scrim in-house, so everyone’s always together. We do some team activities where we play whatever game and stuff like th
The recent meta has seen tank supports dominate the bot lane, such as Sett, Tahm Kench and Thresh. Throughout the 2020 Spring Split, the Dignitas support played a total of five champions; Thresh, Nautilus, Braum, Leona and Tahm Ke
Aphromoo spoke about how he and his teammates are adjusting to all the new faces. „I know most of the guys, so I don’t think there’s too much adjusting going on. I think right now we just had tryouts for about a week so far to see who’s going to be playing on the LCS main roster and who’s gonna be playing on Academy. So, we’re still figuring that o
Being the most experienced support in the LCS, aphromoo talked about the current bot lane meta and if Dignitas plans to shake up their picks at all. „Meta is important but once you finally start meshing as a team, you’re able to branch out. So, we’ll definitely be branching out a bit more, I would s
Ssumday continued to be one of the most impactful players this past weekend, being the first in the LCS this split to use Lucian in the top lane. While playing against Golden Guardians on the versatile marksman, Ssumday outperformed his top lane opponent Hauntzer, who was playing Gangplank, by out farming him by 25 CS (creep score) at the 15-minute mark. In terms of XP (experience points), every one of Ssumday’s teammates was losing to their respective opponents at the 15-minute mark while Ssumday himself led Hauntzer by an impressive 912 XP. The South Korea native utilized this early game advantage to carry his team to an impressive victory over the Golden Guardi
Speaking on Johnsun’s development in his second ever LCS split, aphromoo explained how he’s helping facilitate the young bot laner’s development. „I’ve been in so many situations where I know what’s gonna happen. It’s like the same patterns over and over and when you have a new player come in, it’s just important to take it slow, and explain or Full Article showcase what should happen here and what we’re looking to do and just rinse and repeat that pattern over and ov
