[quote=Jebus McAzn]First piece of advice: Don't sell your boots. The mobility and magic pen really helps. If you're getting focused down a lot, consider Banshee's Veil, Abyssal Scepter, or Frozen Heart to help you stay alive, based on what type of damage the enemy team is packing.[/quote]

[quote=Aadramalechh]k but wat do i replace to put them in?[/quote]

[quote=Aadramalechh]also wat kind of glyphs u suggest[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]While I haven't played Karthus, this is how I would build him: [[Doran's Ring]] OR [[Meki Pendant]]+2 [[Health Potion]]s [[Tear of the Goddess]] [[Boots of Speed]]-->[[Sorcerer's Shoes]] [[Mejai's Soulstealer]] (If you really like the item, this is the time to get it) [[Rabadon's Deathcap]] [[Archangel's Staff]] That's the core, really. Sorcerer's Shoes+Rabadon's+Archangel's Staff. There are a few different ways to go now. If you want to go straight-up suicide bomber, kill everyone at the cost of your own death Karthus, your build should be: [[Sorcerer's Shoes]] [[Rabadon's Deathcap]] [[Archangel's Staff]] [[Void Staff]]/[[Abyssal Scepter]] [[Archangel's Staff]] [[Archangel's Staff]] [[Archangel's Staff]] (Sell your boots. ONLY do this if you bought Void Staff.) Basically you focus on getting as much ability power as possible. However, the way I would prefer is a Karthus that can actually survive a team fight while also having great damage. [[Sorcerer's Shoes]] [[Rabadon's Deathcap]] [[Archangel's Staff]] [[Abyssal Scepter]] [[Zhonya's Hourglass]] [[Banshee's Veil]] As for Glyphs, I recommend one of the four, listed in order of preference: [[Greater Glyph of Focus]] [[Greater Glyph of Celerity]] [[Greater Glyph of Force]] [[Greater Glyph of Potency]] Hope I helped.[/quote]

[quote=DEWO]As an expirienced Karthus player i suggest QEQWQRQEQEREEWWRWW R->Q->E->W Prio build. Tear->Sorc Boots->Archangel->Rabadon->Archangel->Void Staff->Archangel->Lichbane(after selling boots). Dont take Soulstealer since you will not be able to die. And sometimes dieing as Karthus is essecial to teamfights. You shouldnt be afraid of dieing. I take Clarity/Flash (or ghost instead of flash) I play with Mpen/Ap-lvl/AP-lvl/FlatAP runes on him. M/S/G/Q[/quote]

[quote=Freki]Don't tell me you are always maxed out in slots ... Selling boots, It happened to me once in 600 games ...[/quote]

[quote=DEWO]pretty often Freki. Making Karthus fed from creep kills is extremaly easy. You ignore teamfights since 1/2 of the enemy hp is taken by your ulti anyway. So you roam the map and kill creeps getting more and more AP. Usualy in games of 35min (standard imho) i usualy have Boots/Arch/Rabadon/Arch/Void. On games of 45min i already have full build and in and from 45miin+ i am completing LB.[/quote]

[quote=Aadramalechh]thx for the build above ima try them also how do i add in the items to the site...oh well since my last post i've been doin blue saphire->tear of the goddess -> majai->sorceror's boots -> will of the anciants-> arcgabgel staff->deathcap->voidstaff-> than someimes sell arch angel or boots to stack death cap usually i can take on all three killing them all and ocasionally living usually if they stay and i dont get turret love lol oh and the reason i get majai first is cuz i usually make alot of kills in begining and it's really cheap so it werks out sometimes also if it isnt werking out like i dont have enough soul engourgments i sell it for something srtonger usually if game lasts a while i get around 1200 ap and i kinda rely on the spell vamp to survive but i am really squishy so if i get stunned or silend=ced i can die pretty fast but it's funny wen the red dot of death take out a quarter of thier health[/quote]
