Devil May Cry is one of my favourite games of all time and i just came back to league after a 3+ year break so seeing a champ that resembles something out of a dmc game is so appealing to me i cant wait to go 0/10 in my next game
also u can E Q and autottack while u ulting if u do it fast big burst to get a quick reset on the squishiest target, u can also buffer W before u E to get quick ult and be covered by projectiles while u jump into enemy team
I would say that waiting for the proper time to go in is a more important skill than getting the perfect instant combo and ulting. A more consistent strategy is to hang around at the fringes of the fight, alternating Q and attacks to stack up your passive and kite with the bonus movement speed and protect yourself with W. When an ally sets up the engage or an enemy is low enough to kill, dash in with E+Q and ult. Duskblade is still good, but the recent buffs to IE make it a far better choice. The build is Collector + IE + Shieldbow/BT/LDR
Yeah all of this is very viable, I love the IE build but I do find it’s far less consistent and the slightly greedier option, I still think Duskblade is the more consistent safer option, but IE is tons of damage if the game ever allows you to get it!
The sheildbow IE build is way more damage only go duskblade if you are snowballing hard even then u will need to finish the game early before it stars falling off or sell it for IE
@fyrewanderer2802 well i wont agree that always been cuz when samira where getting untargatable while using r it was strong but it was nerfed and it dosnt work anymore
I have 1.2 million on Samira and I disagree Duskblade can work in certain situations if their team is not building armor and is squishy, it is also 300 gold cheaper, better build path, you can spike faster mid game. It's not an useless item. and if you take ingenious hunter the cd goes from 30 sec to 18 sec. an combos well with GA/Mercurial 4th, GA is 3 minutes instead of 5 minutes...
Why duskblade rush? The ult interaction has been removed so most people build IE now. Usually collecter -> IE -> shieldbow but i've seen shieldbow -> IE -> collector
The ult interaction has been removed but the passive still allows to both surviving going in and allow for resets! I can see stat wise about 30% go IE and 65% go Duskblade, where are you looking? But as always if it’s a game where your going in more get duskblade, if it’s a game where you need to be more of an adc or they’re going to struggle to kill go IE! But overall I’d say duskblade is going to be the more common choice as it’s the better survival and less greedy option! Hopefully half of that makes sense 😂
as a samira main i very much disagree with duskblade, it's no longer a meta item for samira since the passive got removed, your ult deals way more damage with infinity edge + u heal way more since more dmg = more heal, not to mention lethality is a late game stat. all in all, fellow samira mains inting my games with duskblade please stop abusing that clunky ass item and use infinity.
Good question! It was back when duskblade made you untargetable after getting a kill, so when you kill someone with your ultimate it can no longer get interrupted and it usually just let you easily get 3 ults off while being basically invulnerable!
@@3MinuteLeagueofLegends maybe thats why i always had samira permabans in my games back then (bought samira realizing i cant use her lol) thank you though, really appreciated the explaination < 3
