What do you guys think of Braum? I was only able to play 3 games with him so far. To me, he seems fairly balanced so far.
He’s more mana-hungry than I would expect.
Once our team is behind, I think Braum is hard to be as effective. At least with some other supports (Thresh, Morg, Annie), they have utility because of their kit regardless of level or items. But if you’re under leveled with Braum, you’re squishier so could die quicker and even before your passive can really be used on more than a single target.
His Q is very strong. 70% slow with his passive is strong. W+E is great for protecting the carry.
Problem is his Q can be minion blocked and W+E are defensive. So before 6 your Q is your only offense. Almost completely relying on a decent carry. Other than his Q and Ult he can do to much unless you are aggressive and up close for reason.
He’s a guy to get your lane ahead and keep the advantage pressing. Kind of weak against most supports levels 1-4. Fighting against him and Yasuo is really not fun if they are ahead.
Playing Ryze top has improved my win rate considerably. Now, if only I can stop all the “attempting to reconnects” :sad: It’s gotten really bad lately, and I think there’s something wrong with my installation since it now starts freezing my entire computer for about 30 seconds.
I don’t dare try to play ranked anymore, but for a bit I had an 80% win ware with Ryze top. I need to play more. But first fix my install, cause that shit is crazy.
I’m jelly. I was asking Manx since he said he was getting that reconnect error. Last time it was due to Comcast sucking so all their customers were having issues.
Worse comes to worst, a fresh install is the best way to diagnose the problem. After that you can go back to the whole looking up ping, checking firewalls, blah blah blah 101 that every online game suggests you to follow.
It seems to be network-related, since I only happened for one day.
Also, I have Time Warner, who recently got bought by Comcast, so who knows. I would give a body part to get Fios here, but they are not available in my (large metropolitan) area. :mad:
In other news, I recently picked up Elise. O.M.G. I understand now why she’s one of the “fabulous four” junglers. She’s so quick to clear once you get her down, has an assortment of CC tricks and can deal consistent 1 on 1 damage even while full tank. All while NEVER going out of mana! She’s amazing.
You should probably change a lot of things about your Elise.
-Don’t get that much AP for runes, get hybrid penetration. Her AP scaling is pretty bad and she really shines early game. You QW->QW spiderform for burst, you’re not really going for straight up duels against someone.
-The boots that you should ALWAYS be getting are Sorc boots. Yes, Elise can build tanky and still do nice damage, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t get any damage items as well. I don’t know when was the last time I saw an elise b and didn’t rush sorc boots before spirit stone. Spirit stone doesn’t contribute any combat stats for elise, and if you have much insanely high damage early game, it seems a waste to not push your strengths.
MUTHA FUCKIN DIGNITAS!! My fandom of the past two years finally pays off. That team is so solid, and that’s not even considering that that it just filed two solo lane spots.
Just phenomenal.
Thanks for the help. I’ma implement that. I basically just copied Crumbzz’s rune/mastery build to get a feel for her and planned on adapting it later. :tup:
Her AP scaling is actually very good and should not be dismissed, with that said Hybridpen are indeed the stronger runes. Sorc rush or SS + Boots are both viable, sustain and clear time is immense with SS.
Hit my goal of getting Diamond again and it was mostly with Karma, viable on all three lanes it seem.
