Getting back to the game after 2 years. What'd I miss?

tldr: I left just before vanguard hit league, but with the recent changes I'm willing to give the game a try.

Last year I saw that leblanc was getting a vgu and was tempted to go back, but I imagined that her getting more popular would do more harm than good (she's a pain to play against, so I foresaw complaints, high pick and ban rate and possible nerfs). But how's she doing today? Is she more popular than pre-vgu? Stronger? And how are her matchups against the new champions? (since vanguard)

Also, is she being played as support now? I watched a few clips on social media and thought that was interesting.

And last but not least: what happened to boots? In the clips I watched some champions don't build boots at all, while others do. Is that a new meta?

Como está o jogo pra um jogador retornando?

Resumindo: joguei desde a season 4 e parei logo antes do vanguard.

Recentemente bateu uma saudade muito forte do jogo, especialmente pq ficam aparecendo clipes nas redes sociais e parece que muita coisa mudou (essa coisa nova do aram parece bem legal). E também queria voltar a jogar tft no pc (no celular é ruim).

Pra falar bem a verdade eu confio mais na China do que nos EUA com meus dados. A minha preocupação mesmo é com os efeitos colaterais do vanguard no meu pc. Tem muitos relatos dele deixando a máquina mais lenta, desativando coisas que não era pra desativar (e causando danos), falsos positivos e vários outros problemas técnicos.

Mas eu já aceitei que essas coisas podem acontecer. Minha pergunta não é sobre o vanguard, e sim saber se o jogo vale a pena ter ele instalado no meu pc.

Então, nesses últimos meses, vocês tem se divertido jogando?

Are you not supposed to use Prune's second E?

Just saying this because I've seen more than a few posts about rotations and it usually looks like this:

Durin EQE > Prune EQ > Nicole EQ > Varka

And if they mention both parts of Durin's E then are they ignoring Prune's second E on purpose? Sometimes they skip her E altogether.

And unless I'm missing something, Prune's buff only activates with her second E hit. My Varka's E damage went from 121k to 193k with her buff.

How is Prune's damage? Worth leveling her skill and burst?

Title.

Varka team.

Fav. Codex (but I could switch for Lost Prayer).

Is Fav. Codex really worth it on Prune?

I've seen users and guides saying Codex is good on her, but what I dislike about this line is having to get enough crit rate to use the passive (I'd have to go atk/atk/cr on my artifacts instead of atk/atk/atk). Not to mention I only have a R2 one (70% chance to proc on crits).

Does she really need that much energy? Even more than just more atk?

And I don't even have Atlas, so my next best option would be Eye of Perception or Lost Prayer...
