Great video! I know you're a pro but it still surprises me how you really sound like a master at your craft when describing the ins and outs of LB. I have 2 questions: 1)Even though she doesn't bully you for every CS like a Viktor/Syndra/Orianna would, she can still threaten for an all-in in so many scenarios. So shouldn't LB's threat be enough to classify her as a ''lane bully'' ? 2)I had heard of First Strike on LB against champions like Galio,Sett,Renekton,Garen , etc. and so up until recently I was only using Eletrocute and First Strike LB. But you flipped the script on me with that Aery page! My question is: aside from Lissandra, is it also viable to take it against champions like Morgana,Anivia and Malzahar? Perhaps even against Annie? Anyway, thanks for the video and I'll keep showing support!
@ShokLeague2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the kind words! I guess in regards to question 1, she could be a lane bully against certain champions, but generally she loses pretty hard to traditional lane bullies like Lucian, Syndra etc and in these lanes I'd describe her role more as a facilitator for the jungle in the early game and then becoming an assassin in the mid game. Honestly though it's kinda just semantics, she could be considered a lane bully a lot of the time. Against some of those champions you probably could, I think against Morgana and Malzahar you don't really need it. Malzahar is very easy to W into so you don't really need Aery there. Morgana I guess you could take it if you do want to win lane hard but because Morgana is mostly just going to be afk pushing I'd probably take electrocute TP and match farm. Depends on what you want though. Anivia and Annie I'm not totally sure, I'd guess Anivia you could and Annie you don't need to but I'd have to try it out. Also I've found it's very useful to take Aery vs Vex. Hope this helps!

Really nice commentary, thanks a lot! I always find it quite hard though to set up the wave on your side on lb since she doesn't have much waveclear and many champions do outclear her ( like xerath, lux, vel etc.. ) and also I don't like that much having to rely on other players as a lane win condition ( hence I often go for tp on her to maybe avoid losing waves just to reset, or maybe to try to get some kills on other lanes... yet rip offensive tps :( ). Got any tips for it?
@ShokLeague2 жыл бұрын
Yeah it can be kinda difficult in some of the harder matchups, you have to create threat with your positioning so they don't feel they can always push the wave for free but it's kind of difficult to describe. I might have to do a video on the lane phase in general.

I actually have another question: what would you do during the laning phase against a champ that perma shoves the wave? Let's say for example against a Yone that shoves every wave, you can't really trade him and it allows him to impact the map while we are stuck under turret because we have quite poor wave clear during the first levels.
@ShokLeague Жыл бұрын
Setup ganks or punish his CDs when he uses them on the wave, Yone can't impact the map well anyway so giving up prio doesn't matter much especially early game

Hey, sorry it wasn't clear. By heavy skillshots I mean when you're playing against a champion that has a lot of skillshots or relies on skillshots to do well in lane e.g. Syndra, Orianna, Xerath etc. At 4:30 I say "crushing your lane" (winning lane hard) but it definitely sounds like crossing your lane.

Hey kinda late question but can you explain the yasuo matchup a bit more please? I struggle hardcore against this bullshit champ. He has way better wave clear and all yasuo players dont respect gank threats so they just push you in and force you to do spells on the wave. How can you manage the wave correct against him?
@ShokLeague Жыл бұрын
You shouldn't feel forced to use spells on the wave, you just need to try CS with autos and maybe Q and save your mana and cooldowns for ganks. Obviously you can still be aggressive 1v1 if you manage to hit a chain or he wastes windwall. Try also freeze the wave outside tower if you can rather than letting it crash, that isn't always possible but it makes it impossible for him to trade back against you so you can just QW him and also makes him really gankable.

Syndra has E to cancel, Sylas has E to dodge, Akali has E to dodge, Zed has W to dodge etc etc. You can sometimes use Q to bait out the ability and then W after but it only really works if they are going to come towards you, like Yasuo is a good example of this where you can Q him and wait then he E's towards you and you W him.
