-I have reviewed the upcoming patch notes.- -📉 Nerfs: Adaptive Helm, 6Sugarcraft- -📈 Buffs: Level 8 4-cost appearance rate, Bard, Gwen, Rakan, Titan’s Resolve-- This composition is already very strong, and it will become even better after the patch. In China, Sugarcraft has been popular since the start of the season, but it wasn’t as popular on the KR server. However, it seems that the pick rate for 4Sugarcraft has significantly increased recently. -After the patch, you can give Gwen Bloodthirster and Titan’s Resolve instead of Adaptive Helm- -(After playing post-patch, it feels like Gwen is now positioning too safely, which ironically reduces her AoE damage, making her feel weaker overall. Bloodthirster, Deathcap, and Blue Buff still feel the most effective)- -This strategy is not only very effective but also ⭐incredibly fun⭐ Try it out in normal games or on a secondary account to get a feel for it. I highly recommend this strategy.- -Although I only showed 4 players in the video, many players have climbed the ranks using the 4Sugarcraft one-trick strategy.- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 09-20-2024 Additional Comment: A Challenger player with 1000 LP, who previously made a lot of progress with this strategy, is now struggling with Gwen’s AI changes. They are having a hard time dealing enough damage due to Gwen’s AI, which has caused them to underperform. It seems wise to be cautious about using this strategy until Gwen’s AI is reverted.
I've been trying to find a good comp to play with and damn, first time using it I hit 1st! Great vid and loved that you showed how to get through a bad scenario, subscribed!
Thank you! I always love the idea of sugarcraft but thought you needed an emblem so I only really play it with 6 or jinx wukong splash. Definitely will try this out!
Thank you got first w this comp haha. Got lucky and got 2 spat and made sugarcraft emblem and played 6 sugar craft 3 preserver. Was so strong I also hit max stacks. Caretaker was a really good tip. I just kept pushing my momentum and I eventually beat everyone.
Hey just wanna thank you for the videos you make. I've improved a lot since watching your guides and just went from Pl4 to Emerald 4 now, and still climbing!
I'm really glad that my humble video has been helpful. Also, thank you so much for playing the strategy I introduced. I will strive to repay you with even better videos.
I forced this comp 14 times and ended with a average of a 3.28 placement. I got 4 1sts and 4 of the games were bot 4 (2 5th's and 2 6th's). It feels fairly consistent even if I don't hit 4 sugar craft until level 7 it still did ok. Main problems i had were people contesting units whether it was mirror or just other builds that run some of the units so sometimes I had trouble 2*ing the 4 costs. One mistake i made was slamming adaptive and gargoyle early on then never finding another cloak for BT. Feels really bad when you don't find any healing items for your carry. Carry positioning also feels a bit confusing as i tried to figure out how to make gwen/fiora kill their corner carries but it feels kinda random.
I’ve heard that with the recent patch, Gwen’s AI has changed, and instead of penetrating, she just attacks the tankers, which can be quite frustrating. It seems that giving Gwen Blue and Death items to boost her damage is crucial. Thank you so much for playing a lot. I will strive to provide more diverse information.
@@PoolpartySONA Thanks for the video. It's a pretty fun comp to me because i enjoy sugarcraft alot. Climbed to diamond with a 3.1x average on last 20. I noticed probably close to half my first places have me hitting gwen 3* since people are not playing her (since she sucks according to meta) i'm often uncontested. Usually, top 4 is attainable with pretty normal 2* comp but 1sts are usually 3* gwen or maybe the lobby just is lowroll and 2* morg is enough. Post patch i've been trying to make items closer to metatft's list rather then slamming adaptive which feels ok but not great after the nerf.
I'm from SEA sever and I can confirm there's always 2-3 people contesting sugarcraft in a lobby from plat and above. FYI temporary item charms can boost sugar stacking
Its good to know other people knowing about 4 sugar potential. But, for me, sometime its okay to get lose early so you can first pick on carausel that may spatula appear
Waiting for a new video.... I tried this and it worked so well last patch. This patch I had 6 Sugarcraft and still lost because Gwen doesn't know she can dash into a 1v8 and win...
Since the recent patch, Gwen seems to only look for very safe spots, so while her damage was buffed, there are claims that her mechanics result in less damage. I’ll look into whether there are better strategies.
It seems like they’re nerfing 6 Sugarcraft because its average rank is too high. However, since it will be nerfed from OP to very good, I think it will still be strong
The general rule of thumbs is you can level if it left you with atleast 30+ golds, have a good unit to add, and can help you win some fights to continue streaking into neutral. Never dip below 30+ golds when leveling.
I'm tired of seeing fairy, blaster, warrior, dragon everywhere. Isn't there a hero in the 14.18 patch that you can recommend to us from the effective Japanese comps? :)
Did the voice changed? This one seems weird, more robotic and less "friendly" hahah. I liked the other one, seemed natural and funny to hear, more akin to a person talking.
No, even a Challenger 1000-point player who used this strategy because of Gwen's cautious positioning is now struggling due to Gwen's AI. It seems this strategy should be used cautiously until Gwen's AI is improved.
That's right. While that would be a more rational decision, this strategy insists on using up all items immediately to have the strongest possible composition each round, so I went with that approach.
good video, just frustrating cuz I had been playing it all day and enjoying it. So seeing this is gonna make me have to go back and find something else.
I also think that jinx is playable with Olaf since 2 hunter is pretty splashable. After 14.18 I doubt it will be as splashable and not worth going for unless that’s all u hit
Just look for Milio as fast as you can.. Give him some mana item then start printing ur Sugar ... Some time if u can get him fast enough even 4 sugar also can EaRN(sugar) faster than 6
