hi really love the Ascension Game mode and i would really like to hear some strats from the pros:)

right now i have a suüper slow start with a gold item and mana reg item (lost chapter) and i am playing Annie . and not a chammop that can hyper carry(f.e.Riven MasterYi Vladimir etcetc) when i get ascension.(i give it normally to the other teammembers)

and i dont know if i am making a huge mistake with that strat:| maybe super strong start is the game winner. idk

In SR / ARAM : AD champs > AP champs.

In Ascension : AD champs >>> AP champs.

just dont play AP champs there, u will just get depressed from having MasterYi Vayne MissFortune Khazix MonkeyKing Draven Zed Xayah Quinn Rengar Riven JarvanIV core item 3147 item 3031 item 3046 item 3812 killing u over and over again with nothing u can do to prevent it.

Most ADC will be able to land an auto on u before u can combo all ur spells thanks to both the difference between center/center ( mages ) and edge/edge ( autos ) targeting and to autos having much faster animations + travel speed than spells.

and once they hit u they gain 42% damage reduction from item 3812 item 3046 right at the moment u combo them, and l

if 58% of ur damage was not enough to outright kill them the moment u landed ur combo, u have simply lost.

after so many nerfs to ap items and champs most mages cant 1 shot any ADC or assassin who have those items and the HP + MR runes combo, or even get them below 35% hp if their tank or support had item 3109 .

Annie only merit is that her combo is targeted and kinda fast compared to poor things like Velkoz, so u have a chance against stupid ADCs and assassins who dont get the above mentioned setup.

i used to LOVE mages from old games like baldurs gate, planescape, neverwinter nights, etc ... cuz they needed much skill to be played but in turn rewarded u greatly.

i still love them in LoL but only as food for my MasterYi MonkeyKing Graves Jayce MissFortune Quinn Riven .

i still have enough dignity to not play Yasuo against them cuz that windwall + item 3812 item 3046 is simply too much cheating it hurts my feelings before it hurts them.
