Swain

Ive been playing new swain since his release now and ive dropped from gold 5 to silver 2 lol i feel like i did have games where i did really well but that was druing his first week of release which i think could be due to people not knowing him much... I max Q first then i decided Q W E is betetr over Q E W due to the slow from W more objectoive pressure and the base damage can be really good with a combo of E W passive onto W then Q and finally ult ... now i feel like you cant just all in so you need to do another rotation of this combo but the ult on the 2nd rotation

To me his main issues is his ult i feel like the sustain part mainly lies in him having to kill people by spamming Q to proc the heal from passive as sustain rathe rthan just raw sustain from ult .. i feel like hes also way too kitable his E should be longer ranged to catch people and pull into ult and it still doesnt feel sustainy even when i get ravenous hunter ?

i feel like because he relies on his passive and every skill to hit in order to achieve success thats why his ult lacks in damage and heal (draining) I feel he should either be made less kitable (e.g movement speed buff when in ult form) or buff the damage of something else

I suggest to let the new AP items settle down first and see what the changes bring to him (and other mages) before asking for individuel changes. Or maybe adapt your playstyle and be the one who kites the enemies, play more around allies or go for Rylai's if you don't already do.

i used to build rylais but with Roa being the best starter item since the extra Hp is really good for him to survive zhonyas i feel is important for him since he wants to be up close with the Qs and ult to deal damage effectively and since up close will be dangerous like karthus and lissandra zhonyas would be perfect ... since rylais is good for the ult to make him less kitable i kinda feel like its delyaing him in use when i could build something more important like liandrys or void i found that since maxing W and getting that rotation of spells perfect it helps but again its only reliable for one and in team fights youll wont be that efefctive for more

I'm kinda too lazy to go into deep discussion here, so I'm just dropping this; Try this build: item 3285 item 3020 item 3116 item 3151 item 3800 item 3065

Ive tried GLP (new version) into rylais but you lack the use of your ult for a while until you get that extra HP to make up for not getting ROA which again delays the use of ult especially when youre not building zhonyas
