Singed isn't strong, He's just a Bruiser counter

ToxicAnything·Jun 18, 2018·1 votes·1,023 views

Punishing all In's doesn't make you strong, it makes you a counter. Considering that's all bruisers do, it makes Singed seem all powerful in the Bruiser meta (That we're still in for some reason) Just look at Poppy, Nerfed her just when the Bruiser meta started cause she Counters bruisers, And she is pretty fucking shit but she counters bruisers so she seems strong. Singed is the same, Easily punishable, Falls behind Stays Behind, Main source of dmg can be countered by not breathing his toxic vape. I mean this post will probably be changed to "Ornn isn't strong" during the tank meta (Whenever riot decides to end this non-itemizable meta)

All Singed has to do is get tanky AP, get a righteous glory and wait for teamfights to run down the carry and fling him into team .

fun champ

Wait a month when the sky stops falling and the marksmen finally adapt. Marksmen mains are quite slow to adapt to change, unless its change that rewards them more for doing what theyve always done.

I much rather seeing Mord as the carry again, getting bored of marksmen being the "Carry"

I don't see many bruisers botlane in my games may be it's my elo where people are acting like semi-humans ..

Making dark seal's passive a unique passive would be a good step to limit singed abusing his sustain even though his nerfs coming are fine by me

It's higher elo actually, mostly in the Korean servers though.

CC him. Protect the marksman. A singed with HP but not resistances will be nothing more than cardboard to a coordinated team.

Unless the CC is point and click, or he's point blank, there is about 0 hope you are getting him off the carry. His Passive+ ult speed is stupid.

Morgana, braum, leona, thresh, alistar, a well placed nami, a soraka silence, all pretty good counters to the "run at target" strat. Theyre usually enough time for the marksman to reposition so the toss isnt as devastating - i often see people slow then move to the side so singed flings back into the allied mosh pit or diagonal so the allied mosh pit can adjust.

Morgana, Braum, thresh, Nami, Soraka are all skillshots and Soraka's "CC" is about as weak as ADC's right now. Morgana's Black shield is her only saving grace against Singed, Braum needs to stack his Passive, his ult is a disturbance to any signed player, Nami and thresh are easy as shit to dodge since they have cast times as long as Morgana's binding.

ADC should be in the back of your allied mosh pit if youre having a mexican stand off. Skill shots work, braums Q applies a stack of his passive which should be procced instantly (its also a 70% slow iirc. Pretty strong). Nami and soraka aim around the ADC where singed will be.

You cant just wave off counterplay because skillshots; singed is bloody melee AND you know his target half the time. Its not like singed is the 60fps horse (Which was an old hecarim build that often got ~800MS).

You don't see coordinated team very often even in diamond brother . this is why people abuse singed . I don't think it's fun or interactive to lane against Singed at all

It's no fun to play him either, Believe me... i've tried to make him fun by doing a "Protect the President" playstyle

I find him fun... He can be very satisfying when you pull off a proper bait and run, or protect your marksman from a devastating all in. But then, i also enjoyed pre-rework AP shaco support( You maxed E and got mana regen runes - just used E whenever it was off cooldown), Pre-rework shen, and pre-rework sion.

Thats fair enough. WHen i play singed i tend to suck at proxying so i just be in lane usually... Farm up until team fights happen then be annoying with conqueror poison.
