[@thanatos8618]

AP Voli destroys her throughout the whole game. The one who's always a threat no matter how far...is Illaoi. Her current state is bs. She needs some changes asap, like less base damage on her tentacles and give more as scaling. Or just shift some power from her E to her Q and still nerf her E cd and cost.

[@gaze2156]

Penetration doesn't remove/reduce the resistance, it ignores it. Having more magic pen than somebody's MR won't amplify your damage past what it would be if they had zero MR. It's still pretty useful since it's only overkill on people with zero bonus MR, but in most cases, it's optimal to get a mixture of flat damage, pen, and haste.

[@michaelsorensen7567]

How broken do you think it would be if negative MR translated to additional damage?

[@ranjithaanil1279]

@@michaelsorensen7567 magic champions would be broken they dont need to get death cap they could just get pen items and build tank

[@GlacialScion]

@@michaelsorensen7567 I used to play a negative MR GP build before his rework. I would build Sunfire Cape, then Wit's End and Abyssal Scepter. With his passive fully-stacked, some champs without MR (and no one built MR because I was playing GP) would truly go into negative MR values and the DPS was wonky as hell. It did way more damage than it mathematically should have, with stuff like Sunfire doing better than double damage. It was hilarious and I had an Irelia lose her shit on me about it.

[@etuanno]

Indeed, but you can achieve negative resistance values in certain cases when you reduce them below 0 before, with Trundle ult for example. I got a rammus way below 0 armor because I ulted him when his aftershock was proqed and he used W. His W ran out for some reason and he had like -300 armor. I then did absolutely ridiculous damage to him. But yes, this is reducing the resistance, not penetrating it. Many people confuse those two because usually they work the same. I hope I got it right.

[@xdelisiusx]

You can get the value itself to negative, but it doesn't boost damage past being zero.

[@bennifinger6531]

Everytime you play Brand it's a banger 🔥 and as a main Brand I love that and wanna see more 🤩

[@friedonionjuice4858]

Whenever I play against irellia I have a rule of never fighting her no matter what. Because her whole kit is to win 1v1 but she loses in team fights if she doesn’t get fed. So if you don’t fight her she eventually loses. Plus the irellia usually gets bored after a while and will turret dive you for no reason and die most games.

[@Magariz1283]

Should do a mage with collector and/or axiom, it is comical in ARAM at least lol. Teemo and Brand can trigger the collector a LOT with their dots haha.

[@bennyfrank5262]

This game is perfect representation of league of legends. If you don’t play certain busted legends*, you have to just sit under your turret for 20 minutes and hope the opposite team gets too cocky and feed. The enemy team literally walked around thinking (and in some cases actually doing or very close to) 1v2ing the enemy team regardless of their cs or level. But yet, we still play 😭😭😂😂🥴😵

[@aquasnippy]

I think you could go hextech rocket belt and then go the dashing rune thingy and that would be a little more magic pen

[@nathanjackson8356]

Stupid question but for magic pen it subtracts flat pen first then % reduction off the reduced amount right?

[@defiltrator1]

Actually doesn't work like that penetration does nit work on targets with or less then 0 resistance what does work is flat resistance reduction like corki e or rells passiv for example how resistance works 1.flat reduction 2. percentage reduction 3. Flat penetration 4. Percentage penetration So if Target A has 80 magic resistance. The 80 is reduced to 60 by the 20 magic resistance reduction. The 60 is reduced to 42 by the 30% magic resistance reduction. The 42 is considered to be 27.3 by the 35% magic resistance penetration. The 27.3 is considered to be 17.3 by the So the target takes dmg equal to 17.3 mr Target B has 18 magic resistance. The 18 is reduced to −2 by the 20 magic resistance reduction. The −2 is not affected by any further calculations because it is less than 0. Target B takes damage as if it has −2 magic resistance. I hope that helps some people

[@nyr_Ea]

how DOES MPen/Lethality work if you have more than the targets armor/MRes stat? It would be neat if it did extra damage

[@Vyren2020]

What about Abyssal Mask instead of mejai's? Abyssal Mask provides magic pen too

Is it just me, that likes to see Zwag struggling? I am always on the lookout for the "out-play game changing moves" he will do when he is struggling in lane to turn the game around... I don´t play lol anymore, but I still watch his videos. I think that proves how much of a fan I am :) Thanks for the videos Zwag.

[@diegocarrillo102]

would the same buildwork on teemo for a shroom damage build?

[@SzaboB33]

by the way last week I had a match where Morello did not build from Alternator. I checked multiple ways, I thought it was an update I did not know of and then from the next match it builded from it again, what the hell? :D AB testing Morello builds? :D

[@mike64411]

“If I hit 3 spells I’m doing 21% of their max health. And they don’t have enough MR to block that, maybe Irelia’s MR is enough” SHE HAS 2 MR ITEMS. She can’t even have 200 MR but having EVERY spell pen item in the game still doesn’t do anything? If that’s accurate I will continue to say, AP needs a building % Mythic like AD has.

[@YInTheUS]

6:28 you should have flashed for the cannon. for the meme

[@guifdcanalli]

Even with force of nature and all his MR you were basically dealing with 26 magic resistance from Volibear, the rest of his 137 were being ignored That is actually nuts

[@halvarianknight4477]

Until the 30% reduction kicks in.

[@IBNZ1W]

Irelia’s first mistake: playing like she could go in on a brand without the worry of CC turning the fight, NEVER under estimate CC. And her second mistake: DON’T MAKE PREDICTABLE JUMPS YOU DONKEY.

[@mike64411]

I’m not sure if it did any damage but I’m pretty sure it’s what caused you your first death, how did Irelia still use her defensive stance, WHEN YOU STUNNED HER!? You land a point blank Q and she was stunned for less time then if she was in URF it looked like.

[@brandonw5520]

Anyone complaining about irelia should give her a shot. She is countered by over 50% of the top lane and majority the rest are skill matchups and if a mid plays safe damn near every mage outscales her insanely hard. Only thing she hard counters is no cc mages, some assassins and pretty much all ADCs(but tbf adc is so bad everything can 1 shot them)
