Clarity & Clairvoyance

SAGETBOB·Oct 2, 2015·1 votes·506 views

I just wanted to discuss any ideas to make these spells actually relevant, or otherwise they shouldn't even be summoner spells, because the only time I see them is to signal to your team that you're trolling. Clairvoyance is pretty much an extra blue trinket with a lower CD. Clarity is somewhat viable in early levels if your a ranged support that's mana hungry, but quickly becomes useless as you gain levels. So I was just thinking of ways to make these viable options to choose over Ignite/Exhaust/Cleanse/Heal/Teleport (cuz let's face it, Flash OP). Maybe give an AP/AS boost or something? Or maybe drain the other person of mana? Just brainstorming a bit, because otherwise they should get the Revive treatment.

I'd love for clairvoyance and other spells to be more relevant. Clairvoyance feels like it should be.

Clarity - Good to take as a support when your team is full of champions who take mana.. especially if you are a support who can HEAL. Sona Soraka If everyone is in a group and you pop clarity, it gives mana to everyone. and healing your team can make it seem like a team fight never happened. This espically helps when your a support because ALL ADCs take mana..

#So taking celerity means your going to go ham down there...

Clairvoyance - The best use for this.. is on champions who have global or very long range ULTS. Ziggs Draven Xerath Ashe Ezreal

Say you think the enemy team might be getting dragon.. you use clairvoyance to light it up if they are, ULT IT.

It's not that they're useless you just need to think of some really creative things. but I bet if you pull off that clairvoyance ult drag/barron steal. your team would flip out

Not just epic monster either.. like if you get a ward/Clairvoyance at enemy blue or redbuff. migth help an adc/ middlaner for a steal.

Good points, not that they can't work out, I just think for how much effort you'd have to put in, you don't get as much with the others, but overall well said.

I know.. Im getting tired of meta all the time.. I like to try to develop my own style of play. being in bronze I have full ability to do that because people are less skilled.. I still suck dont get me wrong but it's easier to meta break in bronze then in any other elo..

Ive been playing Kennen a lot. you don't see him often and I was able to bully a Garen in toplane.. and with an Anivia support I went ADC very well.

I wanna think of new summoners to use.. clairvoyance nor clarity would work.. but I bet cleanse or barrier would work in some spots. maybe exhaust would be good to take sense it slows them, and lowers defences. Kennen can be strong but I don't feel as powerful as if I were playing someone else..

Exhaust would be good because then they cant run from my ult.

reason being is because im getting sick of the flash and other spells that are meta..

I understand, I also get somewhat tired of seeing the same stuff over and over again. I like running exhaust/cleanse on some matchups mid, like exhaust vs zed as yasuo, or cleanse vs annie, but I just don't like how they have these as options but they just don't bring as much to the table as the others. Love the adc kennen / supp anivia btw, that's awesome lol.

It worked surprisingly well. I could tell they were not used to seeing an Anivia because when she went ham, they went ham on her while I followed up from a safe distance. They would then cause Anivia to go into her passive and I'd scoop up a double kill. I made many mistakes that game sadly, got a little cocky.. xD and Anivia was a mage sent bot lane not a support so she also took some CS.

But I understood as an ADC kennen people probably think your trolling and not many people enjoy supporting. So to fix my gold problem I got an item 3093 early and held onto it for a while. Comes in handy when you're behind. I noticed some LCS players doing the same early game but neither item 3087 nor item 3142 was their first item. I once held onto a blade for so long I actually got more gold back then I paid for it. :)

Cleravoiance should just reveal all enemy champions for 1 second and get its CD raised, it would make it strong for "safe" objective control

It would also make it useful vs stealth without being overly strong

Let's say that have a lot of ad AA damage, exhaust is good

Now let's say they have a rengar top, eve jungle, vayne adc (uncommon adc I know right?) cleravoiance would be a good spell on the support this time because of all the stealth and gank potential of the enemy team

Clarity is good in what it is meant to do, lowering its Cd might be the best way to buff this, or letting it give MS to all effected targets for a second or two, similar to what they did with heal

That would be a lot better, especially because as of right now, it doesn't even detect invisible units. I didn't even know that until I looked it up, shows how much it's used lol.

(From LOL Wikia) "Clairvoyance is a 'targeted' Summoner spell. It is mainly used for scouting, aiming skills, avoiding enemy ganks and setting up ganks of your own. It cannot detect invisible units, but it can see into brush. Unlike wards, Clairvoyance need not be "placed" into a specific patch of brush, but instead reveals all brush within its range."
