Still don't understand how to play this game

Marshmallow Suga··1 votes·1,345 views

So I've been playing this game for a few months and I still don't get how to build for certain situations. I usually (no flame) just use u.gg to build or op.gg. I also am wondering what settings are nice for people to play on, like should I try to play on an off-set camera (I want to try out some different camera and mouse settings). If anyone does see this and responds, THANKS <3

Always use unlocked camera. Its invaluable to be able to freely move around ur camera to see whats going on the map.

Builds depend on matchups, whos fed, etc.

If you playing a mage mid against an AD assassin like Zed Talon or Qiyana, rush a item 3191.

If you’re playing an AD assassin, you want to rush damage item 3134 item 3133. If you’re playing against a mage and youre getting shit on, buy a item 3155 and make sure you getitem 3111 as well.

Now of course, builds are always flexible, and are not always set in stone.

Lets say youre playing Zed and there are four ap champions in the enemy team with lots of CC, but they have a fed Jhin who is the only AD threat. Still go for item 3111 instead of item 3047 because

  1. Jhin shouldnt be able to kill you alone since you have tons if mobility to kill him.

  2. The lowered CC duration from Mercury Treads is much more valuable if they are a CC heavy team.

Theres a lot more. Knowing what to build will come thru osmosis as you know what champions do in their kits. And what items your champion needs to output the most dmg without dying.

Using a locked camera is the equivalent to keyboard turning.

Don't do it, if you want to be able to excel mechanically.

My friend used to lock his camera, and what helped him break the bad habit was playing Warcraft 3.

If you need some practice, play that game.
