I'm not gonna say much but..Toplane Maokai with grasp is pretty strong, it's a really good counter for ranged to planes, you can force free trades with passive and slowly chip their HP so your Q does more damage
Very good and in-depth guide as always, keep it up! I think tank Maokai is way more reliable than AP. Grasp for top, Glacial Augment for support and imho even for jungler Glacial > Aftershock; Hexflash is super good for support and jungler.
Fimbulwinter(tear tank item) synergized well if youre going courage of the collosus or any immobilizing item with that 🎉 If you need to you could run manaflow but i prefer scorch or item haste
I playtested maokai jg clears in practice tool my first conclusions of this champion is that he needs shimmering spark to get a 2 min ult gank otherwise you're looking at 2:15 and are very susceptible to jungle invades ESPECIALLY BLUE BUFF losing blue sets you back to a 3 minute ult which is massive considering how that impacts how many high impact ganks you can make especially when you need to have it for dragon/herald contests it's not as bad as hecarim fiddle sticks or eve ult but it is longer than nautilus ult but shorter than ammumu and rammus ult which seems a bit wrong now that I actually checked it he's garenteed 2 opportunities to ult before first obj spawn
Mh- I see him survive lane and being a decent setupper - not a carry pick I think Can surely cheese with jungle pre though Flash + 2nd -> into insec with 1st -> jungle free kill if anyone gets too close
I build him with rod of ages and crown and it makes me "tanky" with the amount of healing I'm doing with crowns ability to eat a sudden skill shot but truthfully a tankier build is probably the way to go.
I feel like his scalings are all too weak: basic abilities ≤50%, ult 65%. In comparison, Nautilus has 90% on Q, 40% per AA on W, 50-75% on E (if you hit multiple waves on the same enemy), and 80% on ult. Amumu has a similar story. And if these champions with a similar functionality to maokai are usually played as tanks (*usually* not always), then I think maokai definitely should build tank
why Grasp over Aftershock btw? Also yea Heartsteel is giga broken. Mao normally like Sunfire more but HS is just too good to not buy. I need to try Dawnshroud too, kinda forgot that item exist.. Nice vid as usual!
@@RiftGuidesWildRiftI'll try grasp again I guess. Been having a lot of fun playing him (he was my main in pc back in S5) but now in WR he get permabanned like every new champion.
What are your thoughts about Spirit Visage? On paper, it seems like it should be especially good for healing tanky champs like Swain and Maokai; however, i feel like it doesn't really fit into a build very well, with heartsteel, dawnshroud, abyssal mask/force of nature, thornmail, mantle, and twinguard all taking precedence
If enemy team has a lot of magic dmg Abyssal just does so much more :/ It fits - but you need space for it in your build and often other items will just perform better
Spirit visage not even getting honorable mentions with all the healing options? What about the domination tree perk that reduces the cool down for items?
Hi really love your content so much. I can really see the work put behind it. I'm from india age 150 years old but wildrift still ain't released here. Not given up hope and still waiting. Vpn? Ping problem, mostly red pings
When people get used to kiting the saplings, ludens won't be as good. First item R.O.A for the all-around, I think.. 😅 That and grasp with gathering storm. Oooooooooo 😂
Everyone keeps building full ap I think it's so troll.. boots of mana into a tank build is insane... crown 3rd and Liandrys 4th are more than enough damage... with heartsteal, then dawnshroud, and twinguard 5th Electrocute - collussus, second wing, perseverance, transcendence.. ggs
