Diana solos baron with no smite

I just tried Diana and I soloed baron with full build, no smite, and had about 30% hp left. That's insane.

Keyword "full build" though. Anyone with 6 items can solo it.

The time of the game also needs to be considered. If you are killing baron at 20 min with full build in practice tool, it is not a fair example because the baron is much weaker it would be normally.

Yeah I did it in practice tools at 20 minutes with full build but didn't use smite.

Yea, baron's strength scales with game time. So if you're full build when baron would usually be low, you'd solo him easily with anything.

"anyone" my ass. Play janna and solo that shit.

Pretty sure he meant with AP because anyone can buy those items and solo it because everyone can use auto attacks

FOR JUSTICEApr 2, 20181 votes

he did it with Diana, and its definitely possible with fiddle. plus the challenge was just "solo it with janna" after I said anyone can do it with six items, which I did do with a full build. he didn't specify that I couldn't use autos either.

I meant without troll builds. Are you really going use that build in an actual game?

TerozuApr 2, 20181 votes

Yes, AD Janna is an actual thing. You take celerity and build crit.

I've soloed with

item 3031 item 3046 item 3087 item 3085 item 3072 item 3153

I'm sure your adc was real grateful. I'm sure you take cs, steal kills, and think that you're the real adc eh?

FOR JUSTICEApr 2, 20181 votes

that implies he was playing support janna in the first place though,

xPhantomDancerXApr 2, 20181 votes

No he was obviously playing adc janna.

TerozuApr 2, 20182 votes

Top lane actually.

xPhantomDancerXApr 2, 20181 votes

And yet I don't see her in any of the seasons that you've played in. Just because you take a support champ to top lane and used an adc build on her doesn't mean it's a good or legit build.

FOR JUSTICEApr 2, 20181 votes

Just like the fact that just because you have the stats to solo baron dosent mean you actually have the opportunity to in a real game.

TerozuApr 2, 20181 votes

Thats because i dont play ad Janna in ranked and furthermore it only recently became viable due to her GU.

FOR JUSTICEApr 2, 20181 votes

So therefore there isnt anyone to complain about stolen CS or kills.

no, but then again no competent team is not gonna have vision of baron long enough for you to solo it as Diana, let alone not have vision of it the second it spawns. therefore both situations are purely hypothetical.

Most ad champions can potentially solo baron once they get a bit of lifesteal. So what's your point ? AP junglers aren't allowed to solo baron at full build ?

xPhantomDancerXApr 1, 20181 votes

Exactly. List another squishy AP jungler that can solo baron. With no smite.

Diana is a duelist. She's not squishy. Also Smite isnt some magic tool for soloing baron.

Whoops, didn't see jungler. Probably just Fiddlesticks then.

Ya, not really surprising. Surprising would be to see a game where it lasts long enough for Diana to be full build. She is a snowballer, and if you do not get ahead early, its gonna take you a longer game for her to hit her stride, and hopefully you are still in the game at that point. She makes me think of Yi a lot. Can get some decent kills early and if snowballs is a nightmare to deal with. If they struggle early then they can be held in place until they get their power spike, and then suddenly you see a comeback from hell and everything melts.
