This is a small example of why ghost can be better than flash...

Was a clean-up job, but to those of you who choose to think that ghost doesn't exist and that you're not doing it right for taking ghost... Here's a reason to stop calling me bad for ghosting it up

I would have pulled off maybe 2 kills with flash

Ghost is stronger in terms of economy. Versatility is what makes flash superior. Flash is an instantaneous non-disruptive movement capable of bypassing terrain or projectiles and redirecting dashes or skillshots. So in general, Flash is better.

That said... Who takes flash on ARAM anymore? Snowball has all but replaced it. (>_>)


Also, Typical Swain. I'm just going to Reverse-Singed and kill everybody. XD

Just going to point out then, that on a different map, the other team could have split up and denied you the quadra. Maybe lost 1 more to your allies (they were pretty far back). The biggest reason it was so effective in that case is because they could only run in 1 direction. It's part of why you don't hardly see flash on ARAM.

I'm not looking to discredit your example. But it is something of a best case scenario.

I feel ya. Back to the real point, i would not have been able to do it with flash. I don't care that it was one lane and easy to make happen, that is still not the point. Just showing to some people that ghost does serve it's own purpose and should not be forgotten. I often use it on rift with Draven, for example. Sure he has his W for speed and just like all champs, could use flash, but I like to activate ghost so that when I'm engaging in a fight it is very is to dodge attacks and like you saw in the aram video, easy to chase down opponents. Stop mentioning aram lol. That's how I know you're trying to discredit my example, you're totally missing out on the reason this post was made. If you want I can post a video while on rift lol. All good though man

Or if all you're trying to tell me is that Flash is useful in it's own ways as well, okay, I totally understood that already.

Not clicking the link but it's pretty obvious ghost is very useful but situational.

Singed, Orianna and Hecarim are good examples.

Strawman argument detected. Bad.

You must be very familiar with Bronze Chaos, intimately familiar.

Deshou / right?

Also figures that you'd instantly be able to understand the argument presented but Bronze Chaos is twirling in confusion...

Flash Is Trash. Kidding but i've never heard of ghost getting a lot of hate ever since the cooldown was set to 3 mins it has been amazing and i take it on loads of champs for the gank potential

I honestly prefer Ghost on most Juggernauts over flash, Especially on Yorick. Helps run away from ganks laugh in the face of anyone using their escapes and/or kiting.
