Press the Attack feels awful compared to Dark Harvest

SlashStriker··3 votes·2,465 views

Both keystones are very similar, Press the Attack even does more damage early and mid game than Dark Harvest, but PtA somehow does not feel good.

Somehow DH is kinda easier to apply and thus more reliable while PTA is kinda harder. Doesn't feel all that rewarding. Probably is good on ranged champions but melee champions not so much maybe because as melee champion you can fail to apply the 3rd hit on PTA thus making it a bit unreliable and even if you do apply it it's not all that rewarding.

This is a bit of a weird comparison, usually people will compare DH to other Domination keystones like Electrocute and Predator. Not that there's anything wrong with it, but I think it's easier to make a general comparison of PTA to other keystones rather than just to DH.

For me, PTA is very lacking because most champions struggle to proc it and it isn't as strong as Conqueror, Electrocute, Dark Harvest, and even Lethal Tempo in some cases. There's not much of a reason to take it unless you can trigger it instantly like with Warwick Lucian Renekton XinZhao and a few others. I think it could use a small number buff in addition to other keystones being made a little less strong.

Have you considered that the keystones are not very similar at all?

Both keystones work similar to reset idea. If you switch targets you got to apply PtA to another target. With DH if you score a takedown you are able to apply it again to another target. Even when PtA seems more powerful on paper, DH seems more reliable maybe because it is easier to execute and eventually lategame it going to outscale PtA probably.

Depends on the champion.

PTA champions don't get 30 DH stacks a game. DH champions don't functionally use PTA that well in most cases.

The only PTA champs that seem to do well with DH are those who usually do the bulk of their damage from an ult..... like MissFortune

To date, Zyra imo is the BEST DH user by far.
