0:10 Q3 + W

1:52 timing grasp + gauntlet autos
4:44 don't W to lane
6:05 flash Q3
8:00 DONT BUY AD
9:23 don't tap all out w

[@Aatreuslol]

thank you guys for watching just a few things i forgot to mention: tap w in all out is ONLY acceptable when the enemy is like 1 hp and u need to finish them off quick in a 1v1 also i tested dorans blade recently into nasus/illaoi matchup since they are some of the few matchups that you can bully early, and is also acceptable in some cases.

[@lars8492]

Nice Videos. Just a question u didnt mention cleaver as an AD Option which imo is the only viable ad Item on ksante with the Armor shred itno heavy Armor stacking Teams and the haste feels really great too building it feels Bad but finishing it is a great Spike where U Double ur cdr.

[@Aatreuslol]

​@@lars8492 you have % max hp true damage in all out that scales with resists. armor shred isnt necessary, unless they have like 3-4 tanks on the team.

[@lars8492]

@@Aatreuslol yes but when i die as a tank to ksante i Took in Most Times Like 70-80 percent ad DMG and i feel the Problems to fast oneshot Tank in the late Game but yhea as U Said i only build it Into heavy amror Triple Frontline and ITS Not only Armor shred for U can Frontline and shred the Armor of their Frontline for U carrys Not for U

[@Dzed2022]

Do you think we should stop autoing at lvl 11+ without grasp / passive / ibg?

[@swiftwithoutnumbers]

I find it absolutely hilarious that in most of the solutions for the mistakes he mentions that its a more satisfying combo.

Thank you very much for the GUIDE! I was inspired by your game on KSante and also decided to become a great player on it! I am waiting for the next video and guides on this champion

ty for that vid and all the other one, looking forward to see the items one!

with everyone playing K'Sante better... be prepared for some nerfs... You should tell a few lies here and there to make up for all this great advice! Lol jkjk Great video! I didn't realize how many autos I've been missing on towers in all out!!

[@renatoavalanche9862]

I love the videos, thanks for everything

[@ZeePanzer]

Half of the tips with his kit were patched out, like Q flash and W Q3, since now the W has to be charged for 1.5 sec no matter what you do (even on all out, what i find dumb and a huge nerf)

[@willobot2136]

When is it a good time to go either jak sho or heartsteel on ksante

[@fallenphoenix148]

When do i take ghost over flash? is it preference

[@aatroxplayer8720]

Btw Aatreus are you aware that K'sante W (Tap W or any charge) goes the full distance in case you are aiming towards a wall and are in w range of it (I assume you do but forgot to mention it), because it opens a lot of options like using W to go back to lane (towards a wall but mostly and best optimally to towers/inib), althought I still won't recommend like you did unless you really need to get to lane faster (such as a wave crashing into your tower/late to catch it) but, other than that great video! Looking forward for future uploads!

[@gallanomarkandrea.1787]

No wonder I feel like the W range feels randomly longer

[@arthurw1604]

Is this a bug cause i dont know what you mean?

[@gallanomarkandrea.1787]

@@arthurw1604If it's w tap it's half distance, if you hold W it's full distance. If your in melee range to a champ, w tap them towards a wall you get full W distance instead of half distance. This is more of a hidden mechanic so that you E to reposition and W an enemy towards a wall to get the full distance to R easily to walls.

Loved the video and you give great tips and tricks for us few K'Sante mains out here. However think you should add a bit of a script or edit your videos to cut out the excessive "uhm" and "uhh". Also lower the ingame sound a bit and it's perfect

[@Aatreuslol]

appreciate the feedback :)

[@theduelist92]

The only sin im guilty off is not keeping and eye on Grasp / Iceborn CD. Tbh cosmic insight could help with IG but... i need to consider my grasp and gauntlet more, especially in the right situations (short trades in lane / running people down)

[@nishinoja3775]

I feel like this is an easy thing to implement. Once you start watching when Grasp or Gauntlet is up, your poking and trading pattern will get used to it really quick

[@theduelist92]

@@nishinoja3775 This is a personal issue in general, even on champs like Camille and Ornn i often struggle with timing Grasp specifically. TIming Camille's Sheen is not a big deal, but for some reason my brain doesn't register Grasp or Iceborn as important enough xD I need to overcome this small mental block

[@nishinoja3775]

@@theduelist92 just bound the Grasp/sheen/Gauntlet cool downs to your abilities mentally. You wouldn't go in for a trade on Ksante without Q being up for example. With Grasp and co, it's basically a buff to the Q so every Q and auto attack on Grasp/Gauntlet is better for you than a normal Q and that's all you have to think about. With Gauntlet you basically have to think on Ksante that every other Q+AA is buffed. Like just imagine that Ksantes Q has the passive ability that every second Q heals you and slows the enemy.

[@theduelist92]

@@nishinoja3775 Yeah, that's a good mentality shift; i used to do it seemlessly on GP, it was part of my autopilot trading patterns, i just gotta put more games on Ksante and pay more attention to it :D

[@nishinoja3775]

@@theduelist92 yeah something like Ksantes makes it easy though since grasp and Gauntlet have shorter cool downs. I have this problem on First Strike Lucian. I always have to check when it's back up and it distracts me so much that I get hit by something which makes the first strike timer reset...

[@Elypsen]

i was wondering do you lose the bonus stats for the items that uses them (gargoyle / gauntlet) while in all out? :o

[@soiscrs]

No, you keep the HP but your HP gets capped at around 50% so gargoyle gives full shield always but you just cant heal to full, it's the same reason demolish damage is the same in all out and out of it

[@ethogdl9148]

Cant we play ingenious hunter in sub rune for gauntlet/gargoil cd?

[@Piewwww]

Which items is better between Jaksho and Iceborn?

[@SuperBiggates]

Goated video, drop a vod review soon with macros bro

[@gallanomarkandrea.1787]

Important question, when I kill an enemy and I'm free to take tower plating, is it better to take it with all out form + with demolish (if I kill with all out) or disable all out form bcuz demolish damage scales with either max hp or bonus hp from what I remember. Like I wanna know which one is more efficient.

[@Aatreuslol]

staying in all out doesn't decrease the demolish damage, its better to stay in all out for q auto resets on tower and when u get demo proc then leave and switch back.

[@gallanomarkandrea.1787]

@@Aatreuslol makes a whole lot of sense

[@ethogdl9148]

[@torri776]

Pants are Dragon cited you as a 15 year old, yet your voice sounds more like someone in their early 20s. I'm honestly intimidated by the prospect of playing K'Sante since I know Riot wants to keep him weak in lower ranks where K'Sante players aren't as good. By the way, how do you feel about the Riven matchup? I'm a Silver Riven otp, so I would like to know what K'Sante's win condition is in that scenario.

[@serafinw105r2f]

I know you said to not recommend sunderer, but what would be an scenario when that buy would be acceptable? Same with steraks

[@Aatreuslol]

i used sunderer a bit and its great into very tanky hp stacking comps, the healing and damage is great however the lack of resists can backfire. steraks is good since hte recent tenacity changes, if u need an extra shield to avoid being popped its a good option

[@ShurimanHero]

thanks i make most of these

[@AestheticAbe]

i cant seem to figure out how to do a quick W... it always charges up to full, how do u dash quickly??

[@ayooludipe3493]

Can you please do a top lane guide, with game play

[@zarakik.3869]

I would add death dance as a possible ad item on k sante since it gives you also resistances (45 armor) and makes you a lot more tanky due to dd passive. Not as 2nd item but maybe as 4th or 5th item. The healing you get from take down passive on dd and also the delayed dmg you get off it can rly make a difference in late game. I think the problem about many ad items on k sante ( like dd, divine sunderer, titanic hydra etc.) is not that these items are bad on k sante in any way. The problem is that they are a lot more expensive than the tank items and you get your next item power spike a lot slower. If you are full build and have enough gold to replace an item it is definitely viable to replace a suncape for a steraks or death dance. Same problem with divine sunderer compared to iceborn rush. Divine sunderer is 3400 g while iceborn is 3000g. Having your mythic item 400 g earlier in the game is difference between you snowballing/winning lane or losing it. In my opinion it is viable to rush an ad item on k sante after you reached the 1,75 s cool down on your Q. Feel free to answer and share your opinions.

[@rubydacherry3015]

yea but dont you lose ad if you build hydra since you lose like what 45% max health when you ult

[@benirish9767]

@@rubydacherry3015 No your damage stays the same. It counts like a Kled HP bar where it's not actually reducing your max hp, just capping you at 50% of it, so your scalings all remain the same :)

[@Aatreuslol]

usually flash tp, some cases ill run ghost tp if i need to match my laners mobility,

[@renatoavalanche9862]

Can you tell me why dont make jak'sho every game? Because of the extra armor and mr k'sante might have a lot more value as a tank and as damage (beacause the extra damage offered from it's passiva). Also, the item gives mr, wich turn the champ to a more flexible one.

[@tricky4734]

On match ups that ur most likely gonna lose like vs Gwen or Camille frostfire is better cause u get more damage and considering they have true damage u don’t have to build AP resist.
