| A tip from an Ivern Main, as Ivern never clear Krugs. When you are on Ivern's team, always take Krugs. Ivern gains 36% XP and 27% gold from Krugs, which is fair but a waste on him. Posted: 19 Dec 2020 03:36 PM PST  | Just a quick tip from an Ivern Main: As Ivern, never and I mean never clear Krugs (unless you have literally nothing else to do, and at that point it is still better if your team clears them instead). Ivern get reduced gold (36% of the gold) and XP (27% of the XP) from Krugs since he only clears a big and a medium Krug. This makes perfect sense since the idea behind the camp is for it to be something you need to invest time into to clear, which Ivern could obviously abuse by smiting it. I have nothing against this interaction, it makes perfect sense to me. However, with Ivern getting some popularity recently it pains me to see people clear Krugs on Ivern. You and your team gain more value from letting your allies taking it. It also pains me when I see my team take every jungle camp except the krugs haha. Credit goes to Maras on the Ivern Mains discord for the math, simple yet really useful! https://preview.redd.it/5623p3zmb8661.png?width=506&format=png&auto=webp&s=ea1d4f7d7cf54ecd6ad7fc32c7469215d8b56efc So TLDR I guess:- Never clear Krugs as Ivern - When you got an Ivern on your team, always clear them whenever you have time, they are extra gold and XP just for you! Edit 1: A fair point from Phreak u/PhreakRiot There's one thing missing from this analysis: How good is Krugs compared to each of the three other camps? This is a good analysis for "Krugs are better on not-Ivern if they can take them efficiently." But there is still relevant information missing like, "no, really, it's half as much as Wolves, don't even bother." Because your teammates can't always hit that camp. (And then there's also a minor point in that Ivern, like all junglers, gets more XP from camps than non-junglers. Not enough to make up the difference, but still relevant data.) Edit 2: Another good point Phreak made was that there is more to the value of a camp. I was being a bit hyperbolic saying that you should never clear krugs (referring more to your own Krugs), but to be clear it's a great camp to take from the enemy. You still get reduced gold and XP from it, but you take a lot of gold and XP from the enemy Eh, there's more you could do here. Counter-jungling a camp does two things: - I get Gold/XP
- You don't get Gold/XP
Making up numbers, if Raptors is "+200/-200" and Krugs is "+100/-400" then taking Krugs is still potentially the better choice. There are other considerations like how likely is the enemy jungler going to come back to this camp before it respawns (as you mentioned) and smaller points like how much time would they have spent on the camp itself. Raptors may well be the right call, but denying the full value of Krugs to an opposing jungler is relevant, too.

| Champions like Rell are exactly what the game needs Posted: 19 Dec 2020 12:40 PM PST I'm really done with all of these curb stomp champions that Riot has been focusing on in the last years, so Rell is definitely a breath of fresh air for me. She's an actual tank and you have to be smart about how you play her in order to be efficient. We need more champions like that. I know League is a business first and champion kits like Rell aren't appealing to players who just want to jump in and not think much while destroying everyone, but this is exactly what the game needs going forward if we want to stray away from this almost URF mode game that Riot has created now. submitted by /u/AtreusIsBack [link] [comments] |
| With Mythic Items scaling based on the number of Legendary Items, it feels bad to have no Legendary Boots in the later stages of the game. Posted: 19 Dec 2020 09:35 AM PST  | Aside from Cassiopeia every Champion builds Boots and can only have 4 Legendary Items without selling them. Of course selling your Boots is anything but ideal. Which is why I'd like to see a 3rd Tier of Boots or alternativly a reworked version of Boot: Enchantments. These should count as Legendary Items and have roughly the same stats as other Legendary Items. Boots Tier 3 Boot: Enchantments V2

Posted: 19 Dec 2020 08:59 AM PST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jV2BxqkVnE It was my first time ever seeing a first blood taken with that ability, since you obviously have to die in the first place, and to die close to a low health enemy. And before anyone says anything: Yes, Annie and I both played that terribly. 5 misplays in 2 seconds is nowhere near a record for me.

| A few tips for playing a better Rell Posted: 18 Dec 2020 11:55 PM PST  | I've been playing nothing but Rell since she was released... I've reached my 100th game with Rell and I'm really enjoying her. She's not the tank I expected, but she's the tank I needed. It's been so long since I got a botlane tank I resonated with. What I notice, however, is that the general public has a win rate well below 50% with her. As a Rell with a 66% win rate in diamond elo, I'm here to share a few pointers that might help Rell players get the most out of her. Side note: This won't include the general tank basics like, "Don't initiate unless you know your team and are confident they'll follow and get the job done." These will all relate to Rell's kit specifically. GENERAL TIPS: - Stagger your shields effectively. Okay this one does apply to all tanks, but it's especially true for Rell. If I have multiple shields (W, Locket, Barrier for example), I'll try to stretch the time between them as far as I can. I might be more conservative and use them one after the other with some tanks, but with Rell, always let yourself lose a little health between barriers so you can really stretch that uptime until you're ready to pony up and get out.
- Position is everything! Position is incredibly important for Rell. She has incredibly effective tools for controlling it, but they're limited. Moreover, she can put herself in danger easily if she gets too far out of position. Be very aware of your immediate surroundings at all times, and never let yourself be caught dismounted near an unwarded bit of jungle. Little things that don't matter so much for some champions - like using Crash Down at an angle over a minion wave to escape rather than just escaping straight back - can at times be decisive for Rell.
SHATTERING STRIKE (Q) TIPS: - Aim for the more distant enemy. In general, you want to Q the enemy further out, because you can just tap the other with an auto and keep the resistance steal from both going by continuing to auto that enemy.
- Use Q to maintain your passive. You can also reserve your Q against mobile enemy lanes who like to run around a lot during fights, giving you a couple extra seconds to close the distance. Not the very best use of your Q, but useful in certain situations. More of a life hack than a rule.
- Mighty heals! Don't overlook the healing power of Rell's Q, especially in lane! If you can hit both enemies with your Q during an exchange, that's flat healing twice over plus another 10% of yours and your carry's missing health. That can be a game changer in early trades, especially if your opponents are very aggressive. Later on, it can be the deciding factor in teamfights if you put your E on a melee assassin. In teamfights, try to time your Q when your partner is somewhere between 15% and 30%, depending on how squishy they are and how bursty your enemies are.
- Healing always works. Even if your E is on cooldown, the healing still works as long as you have a bound partner and they're nearby. You can use this to save teammates by binding to them and quickly firing off your Q to get them out of danger.
- Q works on clones! Clones, like those from Shaco's ult, also add to the healing your Q does.
- Shield breaking goodness. Another thing that might get overlooked when you're first getting used to Rell is the fact that her Q breaks shields. It can really frustrate an enemy Sett or Mord in teamfights, and it can completely negate Sona's table-turning ability if used skillfully in lane.
CRASH DOWN/MOUNT UP (W) TIPS: - Wait for mistakes! It's tempting to use Rell's W to initiate, but especially at high elo, it's much more effective on the regular to wait for the other team to come in and use it to prevent their escape. Rell's dismounted speed means that if you make a mistake or their tank counters by initiating behind you, you could be screwed. If you wait until they come in, you'll have the support of your team should things go bad.
- Watch for knockup. It's tempting to pounce on the enemy Yasuo as soon as you see an opening, but be ever aware that knockup - including those from an enemy Rell in normals - will not only stop your advance, but negate your own knockup. It's the very best way to neutralize Rell's W, so be cautious of it.
- Remember that you move forward. At first it's easy to get so caught up in the point if impact that you forget the move after. Never forget that Rell will move forward a short distance after crashing down. The flat part of your AOE is every bit as important as the round part.
- ... Even when you mount up. Don't forget that you get a little forward momentum when mounting up, too. Use this to your advantage, particularly when using Mount Up to get out of trouble.
- Use your W to escape, but use it wisely! Your W can be an effective tool for getting up in your opponent's face and backing them off in lane, then escaping. The shield will buy you precious moments to get away, and the leap displaces you in a good direction. Just be careful about where you do it! A W escape is no good to you if you're too far from support for it to matter. Do it onto your team or do it close to your tower. Anywhere else and you may as well stay mounted. (Edit: Actually, it can be useful over walls too.)
- Hold the line! I like to dismount under turret whenever I'm alone in lane. This gives me maximum survivability and allows me to freeze waves without taking any damage. If the enemy gets aggressive and my shield is getting low, I can mount up and withdraw. What's more, I get another round of shields after a short cooldown. It's always better to be dismounted when you're holding turret. Always.
- Initiate while dismounted. It's not always easy to do, but if you can lure enemies into getting close to you while you're dismounted during laning, this can be a great situation. You start out with a shield in this case (obviously you'll want to use an unwarded bush for this tactic), and you can mount up either to get out of trouble or close distance and hoist a fleeing enemy. A lot of times, it's ideal if you can start the fight dismounted with your W off cooldown.
- Change the pace. While laning, don't underestimate the power of pace. People's brains will naturally adjust to a certain pace while fighting. When you mount up, you suddenly increase that pace and it can really mess up methodical fighters like Jhin or MF. Use that small window of opportunity to shock them.
- Surprise or escape. Crash Down can take you over walls. It's good for emergencies if you know the enemy's Flash is down (or if you want to Flash bait them and Flash back over the wall), but even better is if you use it to spring surprises on enemies. A nice little trick is to get your E on your ADC and stand behind bot wall, with them in the bush. Your link to them isn't visible if you're both hidden. Then as soon as the enemy steps in, stun with E, then W over the wall to lock them down. You're pretty much guaranteed to get half a life bar early on if you can pull this off.
ATTRACT AND REPEL (E) TIPS: - Plan ahead with your E... This might seem like common sense to many, but just reiterating because it's so important. Make sure your E is on the team member you want it on before the fight starts, otherwise you'll spend a few seconds wishing you had a stun. Good teams will absolutely take advantage if you switch partners too close to them.
- ... but don't be afraid to change it up. If the person you had your E on has to fall back, switch to someone with the health to be up front in a teamfight. Your E's only half as useful if your partner can't be in the fight.
- Be two places at once. There are two ways to use Rell's E both offensively and defensively. One is to put the E on a backliner who's been getting dove all game and keep yourself on the front line. The other is to put your E on your bruiser and stand on top of your squishy backliner. This way, you can be ready to use your E offensively, but you also have it as a way to protect your team's HVT's and keep them mobile.
- Maximize stun radius in lane. If you're up against a support who likes to initiate up close, try to stay a little in front of your carry (towards the enemy tower). That way you either maximize your stun radius, or you discourage their natural tendency to run straight towards their tower after the poke, which can isolate the support from their carry.
- Cut off the ring (also in lane)! When you're good and tanky, you can start using your E's link a bit like a soft wall. By keeping it positioned between eager supports and their carries, you can effectively cut champions like Thresh or Nautilus off from their logical escape route after they initiate, and possibly even box them in for a clean kill.
- Don't wait too long. It's tempting to line up their whole team with your stun, but the stun doesn't really last long enough to warrant that. If the opportunity's there, take it, but don't hold your stun in reserve waiting for an opportunity so long that you end up losing your carry!
- A little can be a lot. If your team's not actively fighting - say if you're getting besieged or your team is breaking off from the fight - it can make the difference to drop your E on exposed assassins and casters. Not only can you stun melee pursuers (hopefully fast enough that they don't burst your teammate down immediately), but more importantly, another 25-30 armor can mean the difference between life or death from a Jinx or Vel'koz ult.
- You're visible! I haven't tested this with friends yet, but according to a user in the comments here, your link is in fact visible to the enemy team even if you're not. Take this into account when baiting and setting up ganks pending further personal testing. (Update: I've confirmed this with my own two eyes thanks to a helpful redditor reminding me that there's a replay function. Your link is definitely visible even when you're not. Your enemy can use this to approximate your location in bushes, too.)
MAGNET STORM (R) TIPS: - W -> R isn't the only way to ult. It's a really visually impressive and honestly fun way, but don't neglect your horse here! Unlike Morgana's ult, Rell can get people back into her pull after they leave, so sometimes it's better against mobile champions to ult while mounted and keep high value targets in your gravity well.
- Pulled units are airborne. Don't forget that those who fall into your ult's AOE are technically airborne. This means, for example, that you can use your ult in addition to your W to set Yasuo up. Note that this is only during the initial pull, which is very brief.
- Either be an anchor... Use Magnet Storm while dismounted to keep enemies under turret, prevent their escape, or keep them from passing your front line.
- ... or be a tow. Use Magnet Storm will mounted to pull enemies, ideally towards your melee damage, away from their team, and/or away from your carry.
- Don't give up! If you "miss" your initial ult by a few pixels, you still have a chance to get plenty out of it. Before you go in, pick a target you really want to catch and if need be, stick to them like glue for as long as your ult is up.
- Prepare for those agile foes. If you're trying to lock down a Yasuo or similar, keep moving in the direction you expect them to flash, dash, etc for a chance to keep them locked down. You can even use Crash Down if it's safe.
I hope these tips help some people up their Rell game. I think she's a really fun tank and I'm hoping to see her get over 50%, since I get the feeling people won't give her the same chance I have if her win rate falls too much lower. Good luck! Edit: Thanks to those in the comments who've reminded me of points I glossed over when writing this!
