Simple tip to fight new ap maokai support.
I've been playing maokai as a support before the rework and i picked him up again. Hope these tips can help to punish the full ap maokai support.
-
Avoid bushes while in lane and always fight around the middle of the lane.
-
Maokai is super squishie and run, make sure you take every opportunity to all in the adc or him before he poke you down.
3.Build some lifesteal in the early game if your the adc. Maokai is pretty useless if he can't poke you to death.
-
Don't go full lesbian mode and facecheck every bush. Building mobility boots on support help you run in and out without getting hit by the sappling.
-
When you reach mid game, avoid fighting in the jungle. Going the good old aram 5 v 5 mid is the best thing you can do if you have good range and waveclear.
-
Build 1 mr item. Please don't be that one guy that build full glass cannon when you have multiple item that gives you mr and damage.
Counterpick:soraka/karma/janna/sona/nami can negate the poke and can punish maokai.
Leona/alistar/rakan and any other champion who can all in and cc maokai are great to take down maokai super quickly since he is squishy.
ps:My main language is french. No flamerino pleaserino.
which cost 300 gold so lets say 300g/15armor 20g =1 armor so with 13armor x 20g =260 gold stats. starting off
