The whole Corrupting + cookie + tonic warp Combo turns midlane/toplane in IMMORTAL lane to a point where none realisticly can kill another due to sheer fking sustain unless they decide to commit on a gold level
Tired of garbage mids / tops climbing because they are abusing Corrupting potion which neglects bad trades and overpowers them permanetly
Elite4Runner2 votesAre they really garbage for utilizing a strong strategy?
Sustain is part of the game
Poske1 votesdo you think such infinite sustain meta in midlane helps good or bad midlaners?
Sustain is the game atm not just part of it
Poke / small trades literaly dont exist anymore Between Corrupting cookies healing...
Every champion literaly feels like vladimir. Except vladimir has even weaker sustain atleast at early long q cooldown levels
Elite4Runner1 votesGenerally, someone who understands and utilizes tactics that are strong in the current meta is a good player.

True I do agree thats how it ussualy goes
However this Potion spam tactic
turtles bad players (which need turtling) turtles good players (which dont need turtling)
It helps the bad players more.
Potions forgive mistakes and bad players are more likely to make more mistakes. While good players cant utilize their potions to a full extent because the enemy is garbage so they never had to use 2 cookies, If you decide not to take potions for that reason it wont go well because difference is that high
Some champions are like that to Kassadin is autopilot free elo for a while... Bad players benefit more from that, then mechanical players
Now sure you can make an argument. But xyz champions need potions, to survive against early game champions and so that they can reach lategame. Do they really need 50 potions tho? and every early game champion is doing the Potion spam... to a point where they just become uber early game champions (Not saying corrupting falls of at all specially how garbage ap itemization is)
Vlada Cut2 votesYeah... deal with it.

Only 1% of players are in dia3+ 99% of comunity wont understand that the corrupting/potion spam is an issue
Of course you people dont see it as a fking issue when you dont see it on every fking midlaner, and meet corrupting once every 50 games
BeatzBoyFTW1 votesImo, wouldn't taking the biscuit Rune path makes them miss out the late game potential which other Runes could've provided?
Elite4Runner1 votesBuy Bramble Vest
Now they can no longer trade basic attacks with you or they are cutting their own sustain
Problem solved.
HommeGoujon1 votesI mostly play renekton top and I don't mind these guys going corruption potions. I mean yeah it gives them some sustain but it has its limits.
Alzon1 votesFully investing in sustain theoretically makes a player weaker to all-ins. Champions like Jax, Tryndamere, and Xin Zhao should be able to abuse players who have no stats from items or their secondary tree.

Corrupting potion gives damage which lasts for quite a while. Fighting an enemy with Corrupt potion on is a mistake unless you have one.
Yes and sure Aurelion sol, Taliyah and few midlane champions which dont have cooldowns can potentionally kill 1 vs 1 Corrupt fight, this are challenger tier champions for a reason (Well this 2 would be challenger tier or atleast master tier even without corrupt meta as history showed)
Its mostly the midlane issue, it translates a bit to toplane tho. the 3 examples you mentioned cant really all in you unless you allow them in most matchups, just walk backwards...
Due to potion meta small trades and poke dont exist. Now yes all ins do exist but even then allining corrupt potion user as doran ring user is.. Well complicated since they dont want to all in you, and corrupting outdmges doran..
Now sure you can probably get results with all in champions in such meta but even this all in champions need to chunk the enemy before, and then there are summoner spells...
The way of dealing with corrupting potion is becoming a corrupting potion user. WHICH IS what happend in high elo / tournaments And I hate this meta because it turtless bad midlaners
KVbqbFsC8e1 votesI do hate how it allows toplaners to constantly spam harass without going out of mana.

Show this thread to high elo midlaners. You ll find them instantly agreeing
Yes the infinite mana bullshit is another thing, more relevant in toplane because toplaners werent running doran rings prior to that
