Wow....I haven't updated this in a while. Anyways Twitch has 356 health level 1. That is one of the lowest hp counts @ lvl 1 in the entire game. Let's compare this with Ms.Fortune. Ms.Fortune has 435 health level 1. In addition to this, Ms.Fortune gets 85 health per level while Twitch only gets 78.

The point I am trying to make is that Twitch NEEDS some level 1 defense to compensate. There are certain requirements that a character needs in order to "survive" in lane, and this build being as expensive as it is it is a necessity that Twitch is able to stay in lane for as long as possible. If you rely on simply getting kills and snowballing that is not an effective way to play Twitch (Or this game with any hero for that matter.)

Doran's shield gives everything Twitch needs to stay in lane. However, something I will update in my guide in the future is that one could use Lifesteal runes instead.

Anyways... Downvoting before even consulting me on the matter is something I find to be very offensive. This guide is free and isn't even complete yet and I haven't published changes that I am working on. (I have worked hours and hours on it.) So please keep that in mind.


Food for thought.

Armor on twitch? It's stupid. In my opinion Twitch have to deal a lot of dmg not def and stupid elixirs ;d

Thank you for the comment and vote. I just published a new update :D! I'm glad my guide was able to help you.

Fair warning though; When I first started Twitch I sucked (Like, real bad.) for the longest time. Just don't give up on him. I have played Twitch for a while now, and I am still learning tricks about him. Like today I learned (The hard way.) that the Oracle Elixir's eye could be blocked by the health bar. So I ran right by an entire enemy team and got annialated.

I'll make sure to include that fair warning when I publish my next update. (Though first I will have to finish my updated masteries.

A really good guide to follow.

I might still be a newbie but I'm able to understand your skilling order and the item choice.
Sure, are oracles the counter for wards, it sure gives you the opportunity to disable their vision of your next movements- planed ganks or else but beeing too predictable just destroying the wards and then head on to kill the nearest enemy wouldn't help much either, just because they predict your next move.
(IF NOT A TEAMFIGHT IS ATM OCCURING) It is recommended to go back to your lane, kill some creeps and then head into the jungle and try to gank somewhere would just scare them out of their lane.
(IF A TEAMFIGHT IS ATM OCCURING) It's all about positioning well and deal damage, stealth to not get focused and then blow them up with your skillset.

I use some minor mindgames and play like dumb, destroying the ward and head to the nearest enemy but until the fog of war covers the area again which will occur in like 1 second after the ward is destroyed, I'll walk back and engage the enemy from the front, but expecting me from the path I would go.

Roaming around and gives vision for the team, harass enemies laning is also a good thing to keep in mind.
For my taste, Twitch is really valuable champion in premades (+voicetalk) just because of his scouting skills due his very long stealth phase.

But unless that he can still be dangerous in the mid lane... if he is well played of course.

Used that build and got 16/4/9 once and started LoL like 2-3 weeks ago :)
Thanks and I really hope that you'll keep the guide updated once in a while.

/inb4 any replies wrote to me:
Sorry if some/all of my statements are false in your sight of view, but I'm still a beginner and willed to accept any kind of help/critque given, rage comments about how dumb it is won't help any faction, and about Twitch, this is how my usual gameplay looks like with him, excluding my mid lane experiences.

Good Job Man, what you have so far looks good. Keep up the good work

Very nice guide. I personally am not the best twitch player so i don't feel i have enough experience to give you a up or down vote here, however I do think it was very well written. When i get the chance i'll play a few twitch games and maybe give you a thumbs up.

Don't be afraid to put Criticism, Comments, or Suggestions here. Just don't downvote without consulting me first if possible. Thank you.
