I like to play Morgana a fair amount. I prefer playing her mid as the matchup normally shows my skill of the champion as she is not a conventional mid lane champion. It is a great counter for Zeds and Irelias for the laning phase and mid game. But Morgana support is what I see most people play. And to be fair it is where she should be played in the current meta. Yet i see lots of people playing her in the wrong sort of style. They play her in a more sort of Janna style where they sit back and don't do much other than max E and never land Qs. Some people may say this is bad support play (I say that also), but it is what I see most people doing around silver and gold elo.

So I present to you the Morgana gold grabbing strategy (it can work on other mage supports but I am using Morgana as an example as it is the easiest champion to do it with). The Morgana gold grabbing strategy s where you max W and spam it on the immobile ADCs you will be up against, getting gold from the Remnant of the…

As a squishy champion main I generically and subjectively hate assassins. It is in my nature to do so as i can only kill them late game or if they are tied down in cc. This new dark harvest allows assassins to nullify any squishy champion even more now and it also allows Pykes to use his ultimate on me when i am half health. It allows assassins to one shot you at level 3 also, which is not good for ADCs who typically want to scale. I ask Riot Games to think about us poor ADCs next time they do anything to assassins. Us ADCs have endured item nerfs, stupid mages in the bot lane (go away Karthus and Swain bot lane mains), Brand and Zyra as supports, our postion being useless for half of season 8, and the fact that ADCs are only vaguely useful now till late game with a proper support. In just season 8 alone we have absorbed so much stuff, so just nerf dark harvest and Pyke for this patch as I am sick of being one-shot by assassins. I also call for a new armour item for ADCs which actually…

Riot removed the funnel nerf recently so the strategy is back and viable again. If you are in a duo queue and tell your teammates it is often successful. I will be telling you the best ADCs for the new version of the funnel strat and the new pathing for it.

Kai'sa, Jinx and Tristana are, in my opinion, the best for the new return of the strategy. The best jungler for the strategy is either Nautilus, Braum or Alistar. The new route is optimized for those champions yet can work for others if necessary. The route is:
Red Buff- leash
Raptors- Jungler smites big one immediately then you smite it after then kill the smaller raptors
2 mid waves- Allow the jungler to get as many relic shield stacks off on minions as possible
Blue buff- Save smite
Rift Scuttler- If it is up then take it with smite.
2 mid waves- Again allow relic shield stacks
Wolves- Let jungler tank
Mid wave
Gromp
Mid wave
Raptors
Crugs
Recall- You should be able to complete your jungle item and maybe be able to grab some oth…

From watching lots of EU lcs and lots of international games I have been wondering why people don't play certain things. There are lots of things that are still fairly meta, yet are thrown out the window. Here is who I think should see more play in pro play.

Heimerdinger Mid: Heimerdinger was seen in the bot lane this season in lcs, yet after ADCs came back into relevance he stopped seeing play. Yet he can still be played mid as a counter to someone like Irelia or someone who cant clear waves well early game. Heimerdinger is the best counter for those types of champions with his turrets and he can also delete squishies if the correct combo is made. He is basically Zoe without a lack of waveclear early game and the ability to be super slippery and hard to catch with his turrets. He can also be a flex pick in the draft if needs be.

Nautilus Supp: Nautilus is an incredible engage support. He only really saw play as a counter as Thresh in Worlds yet he is a great replacement for when Ali…

Hello everyone my name is Daniel and this is my personal build for ASHE !!

RUNES : Precision , Press the attack , Overheal , Legend : Alacrity, Coup De Grace, Sorcery , Celerity and Waterwalking for more speed on the water when you want to run from the enemy.

BUILD :

1. Berserker`s Greaves ( Speed )
2. Infinity Edge ( Doubles your attack )
3. Runaan`s Hurricane ( More speed )
4. Statikk Shiv ( Speed and slows the enemy )
5. Bloodthirster ( Shield and high damage )
6. Phantom Dancer ( Best item for speed )

The idea of this build is quite simple , if you first have enough speed the damage comes more quickly. Never engage in a fight without first 4 items. Ashe is a slow charachter untill you make the full build so you have to wait for the right oportunity.

As an ADC main I have delved lots of hours into completely learning the role. I didn't play ranked this season because of how bad the role got near to mid season but i believed it is now better. From playing lots of games as each ADC and having a very good understanding of the game I will be telling you who to ban as each ADC.

Ashe: Ashe is immobile and her highest counter is Miss Fortune, yet I believe that when playing Ashe a skilled player can win a matchup against Miss Fortune, yet assassins are far more countering to her. I suggest banning the most broken assassin at the current moment who is currently Kayn.
Caitlyn: Caitlyn isn't the most safe ADC to play, her only escape being flash or E so you need to ban a champion who can punish that in the mid-game. That champion is typically Ezreal, Jhin or Draven. I think Draven is the best ban.
Draven: Draven is a broken champion and has been for a long time. He doesn't have any particular counters yet his weakest point is short trades i…

1. Master Yi - Great early game, insane scaling, can 1v9 easily, right clicking op.

2. Jax - Average early game, insane scaling, can 1v9 easily, alot of great CC, alot of Mixed Damage so they can't just build 1 resistence, really tanky late.

3. Rengar - Great early, insane level 3 kill potential, average scaling, burst champion, can 1 shot squishies, great to carry with, single target damage, great mechanics.

I have been experimenting with the New Dark Harvest on Rengar.

PASSIVE: Damaging a champion below 50% of their maximum health by any mean deals 50 − 80 (based on level) (+ 8 per Soul) (+ 25% bonus AD) (+ 15% AP) bonus Adaptive damage and reaps 1 Soul. This cannot happen again for 45 seconds, resetting to 1.5 seconds on champion Damage takedown.

This gives Rengar great lane trading against squishy champions, and with the Domination path you get extra lethality and damage, movement speed that helps rengar burst and roam.

I always wanted to see Katarina be played at the highest level since it is such a potent assassin but because of her kit, she never gets to be played because in skirmish she sucks against every other mage or assassin with cc. Can we just ask Riot to fix this issue? Its a shame there are champions like Katarina who don't get to be played ever or even buffed.
