I'm all about the champions with global passives and this assassin is often not well respected. I think this guide provides a level of finesse combined with aggro to make a great twisted fate guide all around.

nICEEEE

Nice build

@Thysick:
Thanks! It feels great to see somebody so enthusiastic about my guide.

Looking at your mention of playing alongside Pantheon and the interesting combos that that made possible, I'm thinking of incorporating a new section into this guide about specific champions that are fun to lane alongside or really annoying to fight against. Anybody who has suggestions on who is fun to lane with or difficult to lane against is welcome to post said suggestions in the comment section. If I deem your comment to be valid, then I'll likely incorporate it with a credit to the person posting.

+1 +1+1+1+1 = GREAT BUILD
omg im so excited about this build. was playing alot of AD TF.. but gotten lvl 30, it sucked so much. then went AP tf throwing cards, early mid ownage, late game suckage abit, throw cards and wait throw cards wait stun...

could say so much more, just love this build i can never go past gunblade. i had it once, but lich bane, man, wonder if ill ever reach that point. would love to see it in action. :D thank you for guide

Updated to reflect changes to the game's masteries!

If anybody has ideas for what masteries would fit this guide better than what I currently have outlined, please leave a comment explaining how and why. I will credit you with any changes that make it into my guide.

GREAT GUIDE! Nuff said ive gone posotive by 5-10 in games with this build. Great job! Hopefully you will make another guide soon!

Update: Replaced the MPen quints with Potency quints, because somebody else did the math.

Update!

I finally made some changes to the guide to bring it into the post-global-teleportation-destiny era. I also made some grammar fixes.

Nice

Not much of an update, but I fixed an odd couple of grammatical issues and modified my rune selection section slightly.

EDITED!

In addition to adding a few minor changes to the Situational items section, I also changed my masteries up again. I figured that the points that would feel wasted in CDR lategame are just as wasted in that extra max mana mastery through the whole game, so I decided to put the points back into CDR.

(re)Edit: I just added an alternative mastery build in the Masteries section for those of you who don't really care about the Presence of the Master or Intelligence masteries.
