Untraditional builds. Viable?

[quote=Chaotic Bliss][quote=Zeprido] [quote=Chaotic Bliss] OT is standard... Blah I dont like Standard... Hince the Soul Sucking Morgana and TANKEON lol [/quote] I don't build her like one though, your build is very similar to the one I've used but I have RoA as a core item instead of Deathfire for its stats. Off tank is there to be a threat, and I'll be that threat and heal through most of the damage they can throw at her. [/quote] Ive never been a fan of RoA. I like to have the results when I get the item lol. It works with my build, but I dont like waiting for WoA.[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]RoA is only worth it if you can have it for at least 20 minutes since that is when it maxes out.[/quote]

[quote=Chaotic Bliss]Thats true... but again, I dont like to wait for my Will. Getting the boost to my passive is more fun to be almost dead, nuke someone and watch my life go up as theirs go down[/quote]

[quote=ExamplePrime]RoA is one of the better gold efficient games in the game... And thats before it starts to add on the extra[/quote]

[quote=Chaotic Bliss]I guess its a personal preference I guess[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]I thought I'd give this a bump. I've been thinking about it, I think [[Ryze]] is now extremely viable as a tank or off tank given his new remake. I've had some time to play around with him and get quite a few matches in with him, and it seems to be definitely workable. Rush [[tear of the goddess]] build it into either one, doesn't really matter. [[ionian boots of lucidity]] [[banshee's veil]] or [[frozen heart]] I personally like to grab both. And from here out I build situational [[thornmail]] and/or [[randuin's omen] or "insert Armor item here" if they have a lot of AD [[force of nature]] and/or [[quicksilver sash]] or "insert MR item here" if they have a lot of AP[/quote]

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]DPS RYZE ! My friend tried that and owned. LOL.[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]To support my post above I present a day of lol playing "tank" or "off tank" Ryze. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GuebP.jpg[/IMG][/quote]

[quote=JunSupport]Why the hell hasn't AP Warwick been mentioned here?! It's one of my favorite untraditionals~[/quote]

[quote=Miraisen]I think I just found my favorite untraditional: AS/AD Swain <3 I had fun with my second account and fed for the whole first before going 11 and 0, and getting a comeback to win. So hilarious :D [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/vptCS.jpg[/IMG] (I doubt it's viable though, but it's for the lulz)[/quote]
