No matter how bad I am with skillshots, No matter how good you are at dodging...

I just use twin shadows/GLP and turn it into a no skill required high impact play and its so much fun when my opponents rage.

Ofc it works on ahri and veigar, but I'm having decent success with Annie toplane as well

Last 5 opponents I used it on called me braindead cancer and its honestly hilarious. Any other suggestions on who to try it on? [sg-kiko]

difference between bot lane and top lane.

bot you have 3 champions viable for a couple weeks who arent marksmen. "cancer, must nerf, cant play my adc, riot garrbage, revert crit changes". bot lane gets reverted in less than a month before even giving champion diversity a chance, and a couple patches to make by balancing the champions out. not even talking abbout the crit item revert, but they immediately buffed marksmen, and nerfed every non marksman who went bot lane until it was just back to a marksman only lane long before i.e. got reverted.

top lane: "wow so unique, must preserve, ranged always countered melee top, just normal, tank viktor/karma so fun, top lane vayne no problem youre just salty bruiser main."

top lane is literally the garbage bin of the game. every champion they dont know what to do with theyre just like "let him play top lane". so they dont care either when actual dumb shit like aftershock mages and glacial augment ranged champions ruin the experience for half the champion pool up there.

this is why league is bleeding players and matchmaking is shit this season. they dont have a consistent design and balance philosophy. some champions are allowed to be more relevant, and stronger than others just because. it doesnt have anything to do with the algorithm. there are just not enough people playing anymore to make balanced teams. go to google trends and check "league of legends interest over time" kek.

i mean part of it has to do with the new player experience being so utterly garbage, that barely any new players can stand to stay long enough to get an account to 30, but if you shit on your existing player base with terrible gameplay and champion balance on top of it, then youre gonna lose players. go figures.

They need to make fun and impactful runes like this more often.

Question, does it work with item 3800 slow? or item 3143

I run it on Zyra as support and rush item 3905 because its really cheap and allows my team to catch people.

Throw Shadows when you Ult and ppl CANT Run out

Been doing it on Morgana support.

The trick here is to walk up to them like you're about to Q and telegraph it so they do their side step right, but you auto them first, set up your Q, and drop W on their head. Glacial makes landing her Q and R way easier. Throw Twin Shadows on Morg and landing Q and R is even better and they take longer to walk out of your W. The rune is frankly just amazin.

I've also tried the rune on Aatrox, but his nerfs are still too substantial to make him anything but a for fun pick.

It works into immobile comps, but let's be real, it doesn't do that much into comps with lots of mobility.
