That's what people said about Ahri and 50+ other champions on release -_--
Ahri wasn't a good ad carry on release though  |

If his lane phase is as shaky as people say, then Chaox's old Wriggles+2-3dblades --> PD build sounds like it would be good on him. Especially if keeping his axes going is worth taking a few hits. |

i think you're much better off going IE or even BT first rather than PD on a champ with a refreshable AS steroid given the way attack speed and attack damage scale together, especially when you consider how his Q scales with AD. |

| So after tons of games in solo Q this week, i've come to the conclusion that skarner is not viable in solo Q anymore |

He's extremely hit or miss I feel. He completely relies on the mistakes of others imo, so if you get halfway competent opponents, he's just a dumb scorpion. |

| Yeah, if you can't get ahead enough to just go superman on their team then it's hard to make an impact short of flash ulting someone in a moment of full derp. |

Yeah, the point of that build was to give you 43-53 AD and a bunch of survivability during the laning phase (before even starting PD) to allow you to make plays against (otherwise) stronger laning carries. |

As much as I don't subscribe to "tier lists", Stonewall said it well on his latest writeup: Skarner (and Udyr) are a bit antiquated. They're very strong, but other junglers just shine more and have more gimmicks/actual strengths to them. Skarner clears fast, peels hard, and ganks well post-6, but so do most other good jungles who also have a bit more to offer. |

So, what the fuck. I just bought Nautilus and I heard Wit's End is an okay item because of the DoT on his W. Ingame, I have not one, but THREE different people (one of my friends among them) calling me out on my build. Boots start into Philo-->HoG-->Merc's-->Wit's and I was 1/0/2 at this point. "Who gets fucking Wit's End on Nautilus?"
Am I doing something wrong? I didn't get glacial or Aegis yet because our team was lacking damage more than anything.... Like wtf I didn't think I was that off in my item builds...I never get called out for that shit.

| Hmm, Draven seems like a Triforce AD carry to me. The slow will make it safer to catch your axes and the W spam will proc a crapload out of Triforce. He gains on works with everything but AP, and since PD got it's movespeed nerf you won't lose out there either. |

| you can build triforce on any AD but pure AD items always gets you the most damage if you scale physical. |

in solo queue if you're pulling off successful ganks i feel it's your duty to your team as nautilus to get a wit's end to try to carry in midgame, wit's, aegis, glacial is such a tight cost efficient core i don't really see the downside.
i mean yeah, if you're playing at like a pro tourney level you probably want to go full tank and just rush aegis, but if they don't understand the reasoning behind wit's and the synergy it has with naut's W it's probably just a lack of knowledge on their part. |

While I love him I think he does need to follow his corgi gif's lead and stay at least half as happy as it is. |

Won't be able to take advantage of sheen procs the way Ez and Corki can though, his CDs are too long. And even though they can use Trinity more than any other AD carries it isn't even an item you always go on either of 'em.
I think you'd be better off getting early BT on him instead of Trinity personally because of all of his AD scaling.Last edit: 2012-06-08 14:13:32 |

Damage is a very tiny part of Triforce though

Catching an axe refreshes W's CD. I was also throwing the notion out there to get it instead of PD. |
