Got to love the server issues on EUW this weekend. Four of my last eight games have been 4v5, five have had people with the wrong runes or masteries and three have had people with the wrong champion.

At least I now know that AD Gragas is a decent S3 jungle.

This is BEAUTIFUL, guys.

Syndra's Q and Ulti? They apply on-hit effects. Most likely a bug, but yes, they apply fucking on-hits.

And guess what? They apply Muramana. Her Ulti, with just Muramana, does fucking 500 more damage. And it only consumes the mana cost once.


MWAHAHHAHAHHA!

 

Dunno why everyone is so surprised about it. Warwick's ult should do the same thing.

It's not that her balls apply on hits, it's that Muramana applies on single target spells. The cool thing is that each hit of her ult apparently counts as a new spell, giving her a fairly massive damage boost. Still, you're paying 2k gold and having to wait for the Tear to charge up before you get a marginal benefit on one spell with a long cooldown. I'd rather buy AP so the spells I'm actually spamming do more damage. Syndra's not like Ryze, where you can stack mana and still do retarded sustained damage.

 

Just got off a Vlad game. Ended with 5000 health and 586 AP. Here's a build for you now that Warmogs doesn't need to be farmed, is cheaper, AND is also the new Force of Nature :awesome.

Sorc Boots into Hextech Revolver into Giants Belt into WotA into Warmogs into Liandry's Torment into Rylais into Deathcap.

Now your pool is a legitimate attack spell which noms entire creep hordes in two procs and also heals you up mid team fight, if your 70per5 hpregen rate from your Warmogs or spellvamp from your WotA just isn't cutting it for you.

It also makes it very easy to bypass all the pesky CC so you're in perfect position to drop your ult on all of them, ignite into Q into E their ADC, and daintily skip back into the oncoming wave of your team to wait for CDs as they go manmode all over the enemy team.

 

It's not that her Ulti does that stupid damage.

It's that it does it for the cost of one proc and that her Q also applies it in an AOE for the cost of one proc.

 

Can confirm this build is great, although I prefer not upgrading revolver to WOTA unless your in a double ap comp. I'd get Deathcap earlier in most cases.

 

Except it doesn't. Watch this video and pay attention to Syndra's mana bar. Notice how it drops every time a ball lands? That's Muramana proccing.

 

Something's weird with Dominion then, since I tested it there and get no mana cost increase.

 

Could be a map specific bug. Could be the mana regen aura on Dominion messing with things. Could be that you didn't notice because you cast her ult without extra balls out, or that you cast at short range. Hell, maybe you just forgot to have Muramana toggled on (I know I did while testing Ryze).

 

No it's a big deal because of the damage potential.

580 AP worth of damage added to your ult, while also making the Qs do more damage, not to mention she will essentially hit harder than an AD carry. The muramana alone adds over a 100 damage a hit, meaning a full item or two for an AD to farm before he can match syndra's autoattacks.

Bit too gimmicky for me, considering it's very likely a bug they will fix on the Qs at least, and syndra in general just isn't a caster I enjoy playing. Using this build pretty much relegates you to assassin, because your cc isn't that strong and your aoe will be weak as well. You just better hope your ult can do the job.

 

Wait... it need to be toggle on?

 

.../facepalm?

Anyways, a Rioter has confirmed though that it's working as intended, and he's paying close attention to see if it will be too strong, etc. I highly doubt it will reach that point, but it'd be cool if it becomes a viable build.

 

I can now say I've won as support Olaf. This disturbs, yet pleases me.

 

I felt bad for enemy team.

Leblanc and their jungle had 3 deaths apiece from me and Jon just wrecking them. LB couldn't even hit 4 before her 4th death.

 

I nearly took out both their support and jungle solo that game and I was merely trolling around. >.>

 

So Mordekaiser is my best character - the only one I'm comfortable running in ranked. I like to have fun with him, so I've been experimenting with different builds.

I always go Sorc Liandry's to start off, but that's where I start to play around. I pick up Warmogs (because for bruisers of any kind it's a fucking no-brainer - a flat K of health with awesome hpregen for only 2.6k), before going into WotA.

Then I build an Atma's, because I've got 3.6 health at this point and because my q scales off bonus AD and AP. You've never seen someone madder than when they realize they've died to a Mordekaiser crit :awesome.

Honestly, I almost never build armor or mr till late game - if it's time to throw down, I just throw on my shield and molest them all the way to tower. I max my skills E-W-Q instead of E-Q-W, because that extra 10-20-30 armor AND mr with the damage it gives is just too good to pass up.

There's also the fact that I can throw the shield on a minion and use it to farm and build shield if I'm being zoned, or to zone an enemy trying to farm under tower. One of my favorite Morde moves is to throw shield on a minion Garen is trying to farm while he's desperately avoiding my other skills to allow his passive to heal him to stop his regen.

(#1 Morde move of course being when I ult kill Teemo and walk him through his own shrooms. I can't even think about it without getting an erection.)

Lately I've taken to warning the enemy team in allchat that I'm like Kareem Abdul Jabar, and that the only way to stop me is to throw the entire Celtics at me. Douchey? Undoubtedly. But it's a good burn setup for later when I'm racking up my second to third multikill and offer let them take a few free throws, or tell them to come back next year with better draft picks.

 

So it seems that Riot really hate Diana now. Because damn, those nerfs are ridiculous.
