I don't understand this season
this post is being made from my pov so if i am wrong tell me that i am and the reason for it.
not an ashe main but i am trying to be (main jinx and xayah, mained ashe in season 1 when she was to be played mid)
ashe has always been a utility champ and that often sacrificed her power, ashe this season is a submachine gun, only thing is, she needs 4 whooping items to whoop some proper butt.
been playing her for two weeks now and it always goes like this
early game: eh if you have a good support you can be a menace but anyone with more burst damage than you (so practically almost everyone) and normal iq will know not to approach you at this stage except to poke or if they know they will win the fight.
first item: C44 got more damage but still nothing in comparison to your enemy, almost everyone will outdps you in a fight.
berserkers
second item: provided it's PD you can do some shenanigans but yeah in a fair fight provided positioning is not an issue, you will still be outdps'd
third item: IE now you're on par with most adcs who have 2 items
fourth item: LDR somehow, someway i am outdpsing literally everyone
fifth item: USUALLY botr machinegun of death
6th item is just some sort of defensive boost to make sure i don't have to worry too much about getting my ass kicked
so yeah for me, the biggest issues are always from the beginning of the game to until i get my 3rd item. i always feel weak as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck and my only real source of power is my ult.
how do you (and i am sorry fellow low elos but i am asking high elos this) navigate through the 0 to 3 items phase? do you just farm and poke an ult out to affect a teamfight?
her Q is so satisfying to use that's why i am playing her but yeah.
