Your matchups could use some updating, plus i'd love it if you put it in the new format at the top, makes it easier to find them on the spot. Other then that, good guide.

+ vote from me :)

I just wanted to say that as crazy as this sounds, I was using your guide minus a few minor things no biggy and did okay. but then i read the entire guide and BIGGEST tip you gave was "Surfin Bird" I played on repeat and wrecked for games straight. It's amazing.
I got an account on moba just to say that becase it's legit. Plus it is XXXXing hilarious.

A couple of the games were even against silvers.

Good basic swain guide. Any thoughts about summoner spells other than ignite now that E doesn't increase its true damage? Also, I think you should expand matchups to include recent hard-to-deal-with picks, most notably updated heimer, updated ziggs, and updated morgana.

As explained in my introduction, I am new to writing guides on Mobafire. Would you care to enlighten me as to what it is?
