theyre also running sorcery (aery) as their keystone and then taking minion dematerializer as one of their secondaries to fix wave clear issues.

not bad, builds seems a lot more teamfight focused.

minion dematerialized is 150% worth it when youre absolutely obliterating waves later in the game. it makes roaming so much easier.

i played some ali and morg games last night and god dammit is support actually kinda fun when you aren’t playing something lame

hitting ali’s combo or headbutting people under your tower is just like the greatest feeling ever.

i feel like the upside to playing support is that your team will never have to deal with the autofilled supp or the troll supp who swears nasus is actually good in the role.

You didnt play when Alistar was used to support jungle and roam all game huh? Hes almost as fun as Blitzcrank.

i started just after ali top was a thing

he just has the smoothest combo in the game i swear, e flash q then w towards your team and get off enough stacks to stun by that point. ctrl 3 to take out the cowbell. gg.

Flash-Charge-Knock is how I remember him being used to initiate. Team knock ups OP. What are these stacks and stuns you speak of?

yeah there’s a way you can flash charge knock up but whenever i try that **** i end up sending the target away from my team, so i’ll only do that if its a tank peeling for their squishies. from the guides ive watched knock up first is the standard combo as it ensures you can get in behind them to headbutt them.

his e is trample which gains a stack for each person within range until he reaches 5 stacks at which point his next auto stuns. i also e before engaging so that i can get as many stacks as early as possible.

hexflesh is also really cool to run on him as it ensures you always have flash of some sort up in order to engage.

I do it the newb way too, because I suck at timing the combo, but it sounds like E has changed a lot since I played, and hexflash wasn't a thing either.. I think from the few times I played with you, its a belt? I remember kennen having some sot of crazy long range initiate.

you’re thinking probelt. that’s an AP item with an active that works as a gap closer by projecting you forward. Kennen, Ekko, and Vladamir all use it. basically champs that need that extra little bit of engage.

hexflash is a rune that gives you a lesser version of flash while the sum is on cooldown. basically hexflash brings you slightly less far than normal flash and also requires you to charge it up for 3-5 seconds. works while botlane though because you can channel it in a bush and then jump in behind the adc.
