I was very skeptical of this when I first saw it but it's downright insane.
https://streamable.com/44jnvj I think wit's end and terminus are dead to me except in certain scenarios. This is just far better. I one shot people before they have a chance to do anything.
I genuinely believe I was a better player like around a month or so ago. I was more consistent, more aware, etc. Maybe I'm a bit better mechanically now, but I feel like I took a huge hit to how I approach fights in general and the decisions I make during or after clearing camps.
If I was playing with the same level of skill I had back then, I'm 100% sure I'd be in E1-D4 by now. But I keep messing up crucial fights and making bad calls, much more often than I used to. I'm stuck around p1-E4 for that reason. Also because I am trying a new champ outside of my one-trick which did make me lose a lot of course, but the point still stands that I've regressed.
Just what the hell happened and how do I revert it :(

compare my performance in the past 2 weeks vs from the 18 day mark to the 29 day mark. Please let me know if you see something I don't
Think he has the advantage with ult + his passive despite not having full hp.
0 reason to do that btw
So right now, it's pretty consistent to achieve around 2:52 redside clear and 2:45 blueside clear with Belveth; just in time for scuttle.
I think this change would be really nice for her early clear speed, to let her have a separate playstyle aside from invading: rework her W to restore a Q in that target direction when it hits a jungle camp or epic monster in addition to champions.
I think you would be able to get 4 extra Qs with this (1 on wolves, 1 on gromp and 2 on blue buff). That shouldn't buff her clear speed by more than 5-7 seconds and has basically 0 impact on every other situation in the game.
She needs some love this patch, and that's the least that she can get imo.
Top idea or flop?
This scenario happens ALL the time and I need to know how to take advantage of it well because it's the one thing holding me back and I found myself autopiloting when I'm in this situation:
I play early game, I get an advantage, I'm up in CS and tempo. Now I don't find any plays. My midlaner keeps getting one-shotted out of nowhere, toplane is a snoozefest, and I find no gank angles in botlane. It feels like genuinely the only thing I can do is full clear, get deep vision and clear vision, and just wait around for something to happen.
Nothing happens. I recall and start my topside camps and I find the enemy jungler diving my botlane and getting a double kill. I had the tempo lead yet he still got the better trade. Just taking enemy camps isn't leading me to a win when my botlane is going 0/10. I need to do more. Should I legit just force dives when I know the enemy jungler won't be there to counter it? That seems like the only good play to make when I have a tempo lead. Tell my laners to shove wave so we can dive? I need kills for myself and I need to create a strong lane that does not go 0/10.
Clearing 3 camp quadrants on repeat when I have a tempo lead on the jungler isn't doing me any favours when laners want to coinflip fights so much.
Here are, in my opinion, the 4 most to-be-built builds and their reasonings. Do they sound solid?:
Kraken Stride DD/Wits/Rageblade
--general/high CC
Kraken Rageblade Hull/Bork/Stride/DD/BC
--Big lead/low cc. Need to fight statcheckers like mordekaiser/trundle/darius
Kraken Bork Stride/DD/Wits/BC/Hull
--2+ HP stackers. can sell kraken for navori after getting full build.
Kraken Navori Hull/Bork/Stride/Hull/BC.
--No solid reasoning yet really effective. fun as hell.
4th/5th item pool: Terminus/Hullbreaker/DD/Wits/GA/Spirit Visage/Rageblade/Jaksho/Randuins
One more question: what are your takes on going for sixth sense and treasure hunter, instead of inspiration secondaries? Is PTA better this patch or is conq still the standard unless perma invading?
