The Death of Kled

Fizzorithm·Dec 30, 2016·2 votes·612 views

When the new champ, Kled, came out, everyone bought him and played him. However, I'm finding that nobody plays him anymore, especially with the release of Camille. Buff Kled?

No need to buff kled imo he is very easy to play and strong in top and jungle you just need to improve on him.

Probably people who have no idea what do once skaarl is gone.

Keep some distance try to get your courage up to at least 60%.

Use your shot gun on any enemies that come close or last hit minions that are safe to kill.

If enemy junglers try to gank you they will always dive you even under tower so you have a high chance of getting a kill and getting a kill i think grants you 20 courage.

I've seen alot of enemy top laners or junglers dare to dive my kled under tower and most times I will escape with one or two kills while on very low hp or i will die and pick up a kill.

You should keep in mind that if the enemy player is one a killing spree (you will notice by the badge next to their username) you will get bounty gold by shutting them down and most junglers tend to get too cocky if they go on a spree so if this happens to you then you can get more money.

He has the longest melee range in the game by default when he has no skaarl.

i Take 4.5% life steal with 9 ad with the rest being scaling armour and scaling magic resist (flat works to)

Builds

Top default: item 3748 item 3078 item 1001 item 3071 item 3072 item 3026 reason i put the level 1 boots on here is because kled is so mobile and his Q when he dismounts always has 2 shots which makes escapes so much easier to do so i dont always upgrade my boots unless its the last thing.

Against a good teemo (don't know about kayle yet) item 3156 item 3091 item 3748 item 1001 item 3102 item 3139

Jungle item 1416 item 1001 item 3748 item 3071 item 3078 item 3153 good build if the enemy is easy to catch and helps if you have a team that has hard cc you can just burst people easily and just dash around.

item 1401 item 3748 item 3025 item 3143 item 3102 item 1001 Full tank if your doing really bad

item 1400 This is still a good jungle item but i mostly stick to this one here item 1416 because kled's violent tendencies has alot of attack speed that basicly can just shred hp quickly anyway and during team fights your going to be dashing around alot, auto attacking and leashing enemies.

For jungle i obviously take smite (no shit sherlock) but for the 2nd sum spell i take either summoner 6 summoner 14 or the standard summoner 4

Ghost is good for early ganks since level 3 jungle farm in just 2 minutes is gone now so you can level up your Q and W at the first 2 levels then use your ghost to rush into top or bot lane fight and just go to town on them resulting in a few flashes being used and the enemy losing their life or some hp.

Ignite I've used a few times similar to shaco but its not that effective its useful if you have a team of hard cc champions so if you can calculate the ignite killing someone you can just ignite the player then just run away and let em die not the most effective sum spell but if your very confident and your team is very cc heavy then try it out.

Flash, well lol we can all agree how good it is XD but i tend to take flash if i plan to solo invade the enemy jungler and keep in mind when you lose skaarl you can shot gun away from the enemy 2 times so you can go through a few walls like krug walls then baron/dragon walls then make a flash to 100% make sure you get away.

I should also mention that kled's dash works with flash if timed right.

If kled and skaarl have an enemy marked with E they can use it again to go through walls which alot of people still dont see it coming.

I'm not going to lie to you but the early game with kled is scary as shit its hard to get a good early kda or perfect you need to be aware of your weakness but luckily for you i've seen people abuse his weakness thinking he is a free kill and you can regain skaarl at really funny moments in the game and turn the tide of fights in your way.

For jungle routes its a bit hard to explain i should do a guide on this but im kind of lazy (sorry) I dont want to do videos and screenshots like i did with my twitch and rumble guides back over a year ago and i will go over alot of details even down to the nerdy shit.

sorry for tldr

It's because he was something new and fresh on release, and people got burned out from playing him all the time for a couple weeks. And he doesn't rack up kills quite like Camille can.
