Not to double comment but that start at about 1:49 is so tragic. I absolutely feel that, and immediately following it up with “That’s fine, I didn’t want to win anyway” true comedy right there 😂
I've also kept Stridebreaker as my 1st item even with the nerfs; I just cannot seem to get better performance from a non-Tiamat item in early game. Yes, if Maiden is down I have to contort the camps a bit to get graves, but the raw speed at which you can flow through the jungle with cleave and ghouls/maiden up is ridiculous, plus it has all the stats Yorick loves for pvp (except CDR of course). I miss the passive speed-on-damage SO MUCH though, and usually buy Cleaver 2nd for that.
Most of the time, i'm trying out new things to see what works or fits. Stridebreaker just lets you clear the jungle quickly and gives good stats and versatility. Shojin is underwhelming, titanic hydra feels clunky, and i need a HP/AD item to go second before Liandry's. So Cleaver > stridebreaker also works, but stride gives a little more damage to monsters early. Personally i still think cleaver is probably the best rush item, but its worth exploring other options. Cleaver X Liandry's is solid right now, it's just the X item that i can't work out what's best.
@@NinetalesOCE i still think triforce is the better 1st item with the conquer setup due to the nerf on the damage of other ad items the extended trades and longer fights on the current meta
I got ptsd from seeing that invade....when it happens its like an omen that it will be a difficult game really wp! great crash course on playing when behind xD
If I recall correctly from one of his recent videos, he explained that SoS's damage multiplier does work on ghouls now, but ghouls and maiden don't stack it anymore. So, you can't max stack it very easily in a fight, but the damage still works.
I run ignite with stridebreaker as the ms it gives means you dont really need flash. I almost always look to 3 camp into invade their red with my ignite and then kill if they contest, it works 80% of the time. Have you tried this or is it not viable in higher elo? edit: I also run blue smite as you don't need the red smite slow as you have Stride
