Why Haven't You Played Swain?

Swains auto attacks are horrible

And he lacks wave clear aswell as mobility

I actually like archangels staff on swain, though admittedly I use a very boring standard build most of the time.

You trade lots of for mobility, huge sudden burst,rage, and weak early game "like that auto attack delay messes me up to be honest" for easily sustained tons of damage and "tankiness" from healing. He can be bursted down or ranged down early/late so its just hes mainly enemy/ally team comp reliant. Also I enjoyed the video!

I think Swain's ult is broken, the rest of his kit is fine but his ult doe

I don't play him so as to spare everyone the horrible experience of playing against him

Bow you should add me and we can try your build vs other people. We'll call it Hexylai's Cleavezahar...or you know we could not....that sounded better in my head.

His range is a little low for my tastes and i can't really last hit with him

his AA's feel really weird to me

I personally don't play Swain because I can't cs for my life on him.

On the flip side I am GLAD no one plays him. I honestly have no idea how to play against good Swains. They obliterate anyone gets near and he's so hard to kill with his R. I honestly have no idea what to do vs him:/

sup swain sup swain sup swain!!!!!!!!!! FEAR THE BUSH!!!!! adc cry

Because I'm sure everyone would hate me for this build idea i have for him...

:

At level 18 will have 3373 maximum mana with this build. And 3% of your max mana is converted into AP. In this case you will net about 101.19 AP just from the Unique passive of Seraph's Embrace. Not to mention all the AP he gets from the items base stats:

• = 100 AP
• = 80 AP (with passive 120)
• = 80 AP (total with its unique passive increase from other items in the build 181.19)
• = 80 AP

Ending total: AP 481.19 give or take depending on Runes and Masteries...

If you're saying Swain has bad wave clear then you haven't played him past level 6.
