[@ThePhylol]

Good luck in the giveaway and thank you for watching my videos this past year! :)

[@DontHearNoEvil]

hey Phy. nice video like always. wanted to ask you what you think about mid malza. does he have a place in the meta?

[@ahmedakmal9244]

I love your vods man keep it up, i watch it asap :D Love from Egypt

[@WolfSolo1]

Phy, I hope know if they nerf a rune life aftershock you nerf sejg and other champs that do well with it. So yeah, just a thought.

[@yuukifenia1611]

I've been having a ton of good games with Vayne and Hail of Blades. It makes lane trading super easy and strong and if you take all the healing runes like Taste of Blood, Ravenous, Overheal for a safe lane and then as soon as you get components for BotRK you start hurting. Late game it stacks your Guinsoos super fast and you can burst someone at the start really fast. Generally before they know what happening they lose a lot of their health bar and if they disengage you can do it again

[@pydengg]

yeah i've been using it too and makes laning trades a lot better, making the transition to late game a lot easier

[@knoxxville499]

What's your op.gg

[@andremagalhaes5178]

@@knoxxville499 the real question

[@MrRobbosGaming]

lethal tempo is so much nicer but. the trading through lethal tempo and a botrk rush makes early to mid filthy

@@imraneyubov1 well, i knew someone was gonna comment that. I'm trying so, what should i change 😊 Edit: is it the worked? Is it work instead of worked

[@aidanbruh2912]

Nourdin E it should be “that bm didn’t work out very well” or something like that. the word “quite” doesn’t go well in that sentence

[@ayyheyy1697]

Changed it, thanks!

[@joashex]

Picked up Darius recently and I really love his kit. I even had a pretty bad lane but still managed to stay relevant. Went in 1v4 while the other team was getting Barron and just chipping away their life until my team arrived to play clean up and I managed to score a triple

[@ferahri2469]

One thing that hasnt been mentioned about Ahri is Protobelt. After the nerfs, i skip Oblivion orb and go for Protobelt. You can EQW Proto(ign) any squishy and delete them. Oblivion orb provides less burst for more stats but a full Protobelt is one of the best items and it costs 2500g. Try it. You wont regret.

[@sethdoeslegalmeth3162]

i will try this

[@benprize955]

well with that name ill have to try that

[@kailet1997]

The only meta and patch videos I watch

[@mohamedmeknassi2128]

i've been playing ashe with presence of mind And transcedence and essence reaver wich gives u 30% Cdr and u get ulti reduction for each take down and u get mana back and plus the new essence reaver attack speed when u ulti , it's pretty good makes the ulti around 30 40 Cdr wich makes u be a great pick caller

[@leagueofdraven7162]

It would be cool if you make a video like for example for adc the best 3 builds for jinx or best 3 builds for lucian. And why every build is good in its own way.

[@domonkoshorvath6132]

Quality video as always! Thanks for making these patch videos. And the giveaway goes to europe or just America?

[@Xxblinkhardy46xX]

Thoughts on Vel Koz- Commet or electrocute or when would one or the other be better?

[@DrTel]

If you can finisb before 30 minutes, Olaf is a beast toplaner, I thought you would mention him, he is played by literally every streamer right now :D

[@AaryaPulijala]

How do you feel about Urgot after the nerf? I know he is still one of the best top lane champions, especially if you have played him enough, but how effective do you think he will be overall now that his early game especially has taken a hit?

[@smoxy3958]

Phy always got our back with every patch ^^

[@nikoacker9029]

I really would love to see the tier lists for each role, but i feel like it would be better to do them after 9.3, espacially the one for botlane

[@tedjones6937]

can you do a video on what runes to use for each adc. i can never figure out if i should take manaflow/gathering storm, or manaflow/absolute focus, or gathering storm/absolute focus. thanks.

[@burekmali6704]

okay I'll list some champions that are mostly played in high elo as i don't really believe in these win ratios only.. top (urgot,vlad,sswain,kennen,riven,aatrox,sylas) mid ( Akali,Vlad,LB,Zoey) jungle ( Kha,Karth,Lee,Xin) Adc ( Ezreal,Kaisa,Lucian,Draven,Vayne,Cassio) supp (thresh,pyke,zilean,braum,morg) they're not listed in any order just whats generally played, excluding otps

[@Domasiukas]

Real question is which role is best for climbing? In EUW Platinum I find that adc are the worst right now. I think jungle is the only role who can carry solo. Finally, top, mid and support seem to be in-between. What do you think?

[@erikf3506]

I you are missing out on some in the jungle like Jax and Camile, with the new pathing they are both really strong

[@purplemango_8291]

So glad all my mid lane main are mention 😍 especially Zoe and Vel 😇

[@VaderBom]

What is your honest opinion about garen top? Is it a bad idea to main him

[@hola979]

I mean depends on the matchups if the enemy has alot of cc you'll end up not having any openings and just getting kited to death but if you can play around that or the enemy team doesn't really have much cc then sure he is good. And in Laning garen just shits on some champs while some destroy him like fiora who can just w his ult. I'd say he is good in the right games not every

[@VaderBom]

@@hola979 thanks for the advice. I'll learn em and take a second champ for top

[@GanksYourMom]

What do you think about kennen? He counter alot of the meta Champions right now like sion, jax, irelia and other bruisers/tanks.

[@abinashgajurel111]

is heimerdinger good?

[@reesevoll7655]

So what are people thinking about sylas? From what ive seen so far hes a little weak with bad early game mana sustain and can be easily poked out of lane or invaded off his camps by aggro junglers like udyr and xin. I have also seen some crazy plays with him and some insane healing off his w. So im not sure how i feel about him. What do you think?

[@hoangduyle3175]

Phy, please, can you make a video about when to pick a certain marksman?

[@clee92]

Haven't played league in a while so this really helps thanks broski

[@chrishaugh1655]

I've seen a lot of high elo players no longer using Gathering Storm because games just aren't lasting long enough anymore to justify it. Your thoughts? Also, since when is sona's lane phase bad? She's still got really strong poke and can hide in the minion wave while doing so against the likes of pike/thresh/blitz.

[@solomonking1536]

Even know twitch isn’t on the list he is still my boy or my rat I guess

It wont let me even enter the giveaway :( i put in the info and sub ect. but wont save it

[@ethereal23]

I don't think Aery is great on enchanters right now, it has been nerfed too much, just take Guardian-Inspiration/Sorcery, everything on Resolve is useful: Revitalize for shields/heals, Bone Plating against burst lanes, Second Wind against poke lanes, Font of Life on Nami, Morgana and Lulu or Demolish against free lanes.

Prepare to add AP Jarvan IV with Aery to your list after Spirit's performance today...

[@trusthd2243]

I have to the pick almost every games as the first one, so the way people play then is, they just google my champ and type counter at the end and look what destroys my champ ... And that is the case for almost every game, that system sux balls, even if i manage to kill them, i have to put so much more effort into it. You can try to play champs that i call camou like swain for example cause there is a 50/50 Chance that i might go top instead of mid, but that just works sometimes :/. I hope you guys now some champs, that i can climb with...maybe something where i don't really need my team to win :) (Sounds stupid, but you have to solo carry often).

thoughts on urgot?

He’s still fine just has a weaker lane and mid game.

I really can't see the appeal of Karthus Jungler especially in solo queue...there are too many early game junglers that can invade you and especially in low elo where people there tend to not give a fuck about the jungler other than expecting them to babysit gank their lanes, something like a khazix, lee sin, xin zhao, camille, kayn, yi etc. will really crap on you as Karthus jungler... Tha's just my opinion...maybe this jungler works if you are playing with your friends or your team has competent braincells to help you against invades...or maybe he just works on high elo...besides being called a troll if I try to play him as a jungler is still a reality here in Gold...not many here still knows about Karthus jungler... I'm really on the fence about this one...

[@inory-f-2314]

I played it a Bit its Insane dmg ok ganks his lategame is godly

[@thryke9919]

You mostly kite them with wall and q which deals so much dmg you will kill most of them in just a few also you grab blue smite to kite better

[@JoeyAdrianPk]

The first clear is really the only time you're vulnerable. After your first base you can clear and stay pretty healthy so if they invade after that you can kite with wall and q. It becomes VERY dangerous for anyone to actually invade you after that first back, especially with your passive. It's almost always gonna be a trade of kills which is a win for karthus. During your first clear if you get one river ward down and know where the enemy jg started based on who leashed you can stay safe and walk away when you know they are coming. With a little bit of knowledge on tracking the enemy jungler karthus can be unreasonably safe early unless they invade in numbers.

[@arphaxadbasilona1871]

@@JoeyAdrianPk what's the standard pathing for him anyway? gonna mute all If I'm gonna play him since he isn't that known as a jungler in our region and I'm not gonna spent so much time trying to justify playing him as a jungler lol...

[@JoeyAdrianPk]

@@arphaxadbasilona1871 blue, gromp, scuttle, Raptors, red, krugs, repeat. Scuttle isnt necessary and if you don't know where the enemy jungler is just skip it and do the full clear starting with blue. Any downtime between camps spawning get vision control to help track enemy jungler If the enemy ganks and you know they have camps up go take them. If not just keep full clearing on repeat and control dragon/rift after lvl 6. Only gank pre 6 if you will 110% get the kill. You're a team fighter/late game champ, dont risk pointless deaths or waste any time in the early game unless its guaranteed. Definitely not my favorite playstyle but it's much more consistent than some of the early game junglers since you're much less reliant on your laners knowing what they are doing xD Hope this helps :D
