I feel like the Lost Chapter items feel very niche this season, so it makes sense that players are experimenting with new builds on mages ~ also yay new content
Nice to see someone else noticed the lichbane buff for zoe, though i actually started doing rod of ages first item just because i wanted mana and survivability then lichbane second.
Erick, do you think shadowflame is really worth it on zoe ? The stats are great but we cannot really proc the passive on anything else than lich bane + 1 Z projectile I've felt like the electrocute item was just more worth it most of the time but i may be wrong because shadoflame stats are so chonky
Hihi Melca! I do think so, I thought the same originally but in practice it feels super nice. I think stormsurge just doesnt do enough damage especially after nerfs ;-;
Zoe procs the passive 100% of the time as long as the damage puts the enemy below the threshold, even if you Q them from full health. Go to practice tool and confirm it for yourself. Since stormsurge wakes up people with Zoes bubble on them, this is really the only decent pure damage option aside from deathcap or percent pen items.
Erick what did we do to already deserve a new RU-vid video? What a blessing! Have a great day and hopefully see you on stream tomorrow or the day after ❤.
I am running ingenious hunter too, because thunder, lich bane, zhonya and horizon focus are all cooldown items that benefit from the ingenious + there is so much movement speed on mages this season i don't really need ravenous hunter But honestly i'm not convinced by ingenious, i'm considering going back to ravenous or resigning to play treasure hunter
I'm a relentless hunter FIEND on Zoe, once you start using it it's hard to go to the other ingenious runes since the MS feels so nice haha. Ingenious is alright too though!
Hi dhanny!! I have & I even bought her! I think often about making some more wild rift content but I just haven't been playing too much lately (although I still do fairly frequently) & climbing the ranks seems like such a time sink there since i've demoted due to the rank resets/not playing much
I would say for Vex to skip lich bane and go Horizon focus -> Shadowflame! You could try lich though it actually sounds kinda interesting and i'm tempted to try it myself now haha
just recently i discovered also how bad ludens was, and how good not building ludens first on zoe felt ^^ it really felt like i came online wayyy faster and now i usually just buy a tear first back without building archangels HAHA
I do yes! I think Zoe can climb from and to any rank, she's a champion with such a high skill ceiling! I do think she's harder to play than some other champions who do similar things though (Ahri for example)
I might disagree on Seraphine being viable support now, Ability Haste in general is lower now meaning she has less shields and her primary focus is descreased this season.
Thats fair! I've just had a lot of success with support Seraphine on my team this season so far. With them lowering her W CD a few months back and now being able to itemize moonstone with other items more comfortably/supports generally being buffed, I think she's better but i could be wrong!
@@ErickDota If you would prioritize support ability haste items instead of good items she would have massive shields (without good buffs tho) but every 6-7 or so, now it's every 8-9 for kinda weaker shield. Her early game could be stronger tho. That's how I feel, I miss my old build.
Is Zoe’s Ultimate at all useful? It’s not even the ability to escape, it’s some kind of tease. Changed: Ah, so she can use abilities and regular attacks while «jumping.» Interesting.
For real i've been SHOCKED by the number of useless Ludens i'm seeing on everyone MAGES ITEMS CHANGED GUYS, build them ! I'm so happy i don't have to rely on this stupid item that always felt weaker than a lost chapter 🤧
