If fed - offense or defense?

[quote=Mastarwe]If you get fed/farmed early on, do you prefer to go with more early offense or do you build some early defense instead, and why do you go that route? Wondering for most roles, since everyone wants a bit of both. Tanks get way more scary with a bit of early dmg (making people focus them more). AP casters will burst more, but also die faster with offense, or just do a normal amount of dmg and die a lot slower (only helps for casters that aren't throwing down one combo incl. ult and are useless afterwards). etc. I find that this topic usually leads to some interesting discussion , especially when it comes to roles such as tank and AD carries.[/quote]

[quote=Meiyjhe]Depends. The safe answer would be to use a normal build but then getting it a bit faster than usual :P But if you are doing great for example against a Zed being a squishy AP champ, you should rush Zhonya's, counters his ultimate hard. If you are doing great against Garen as being Shen for example, get Sunfire cape, both armor, health and damage aura which helps Shen quite a lot. There are some more exceptions, but overal, it really depends on the situation.[/quote]

[quote=Totallynotn00b]Offence, without going overboard. AT the end of the day, if you're snowballing, you want to snowball harder. Get the offensive items + GA, and you're good to go. Bruisers in general who get fed also get ahead in levels - thereby they can rely on their raw stats for tankyness whilst building damage. Or perhaps they're like [[riven]] where building offence translates into defence as well. Just dont neglect defence forever, else you'll meet things like [[exhaust]] and cry. Unless you're [[tryndamere]] or something. In which case, drink those pearly tears of QQ.[/quote]

[quote=luizdeh]Yeah... Depends. I just build whatever I was going build, but faster. Usually works.[/quote]

[quote=Shoryureppa]Offense. Extend laning phase to keep shitting on enemy lane, ward enemy jg.[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje]I would always say offense. Just because of snowballing potential. There are some champs which this doesn't work for (like maokai) but overall you just want to snowball an early lead.[/quote]

[quote=Alcasea]BUY WARDS. LOTS AND LOTS OF THEM xD just kidding (well unless you are a really fed support though). but in most cases just build your regular items. you will have lock items faster so if all of you starts to get to lvl 18, you still have items advantages by 1 or 2 high tier items than your opposing lane mate.[/quote]

[quote=Jovy]if you're really fed as support buy damage and carry np[/quote]

[quote=Vynertje]Ever played Lux support? :3 I remember once going 14-3-11 as Lux support just building sightstone and a shurelya, followed by deathcap and zhonya :D[/quote]

[quote=Alcasea]@vyne i usually get mejais for lux even if i do support so yeah she wards and kicks ass too. sorry totally forgotten about support than can sub as killers too ^^[/quote]
