SECRET Swain Tips & Tricks

[@kurohyuki5912]

One of the best designed champions imo. Has clear weaknesses and defined strength

[@FrenzyGamingTV]

Almost all champs have that.

@@TigreExtremo - Yone: weak early game, easy ultimate to dodge, really squishy. - Viego: Rammus, Yi, Quinn counter him and all champs that can stop him from getting close to you and Auto Attack you. - Fiora: She is also weak early, Steelcaps and Early Bramble Vest, and ignite is op against her, also she is good at 1v1 and she can't really teamfight like other champs. - Riven: No sustain in lane, loses to hard CC comps and range comps, she has no range harass and she is garbage when behind or enemies build tank. - Irelia: Gets outscaled from other top champs like Fiora, Urgot, Tryndamere, Camille. She also really weak early against some lanes bullies like Darius and Sett, and maybe Urgot.

Awesome video ! I played Swain support when he got mini-rework, right before he got really popular in this role, and love how surprising the damage always is. A small tip that i would add that i don't see anywhere is you can actually use the minions to "extend" the detonation zone of your E, kind of like Lissandra's Q. When it hits the minions, it will explode in a small area, which allows you to hit BEYOND the hitbox range (like 10/15% maybe), so the enemy bot isn't even safe behind or inside the minion, it's quite the opposite. Super useful for level 1-3 trades.

[@sa5er1234]

Totally agree, small small things but helpful. Swain is my favourite champ.

[@ahumanithinkk6122]

Was looking for this in the video. I'm a M7 swain and when I see others play him they seem to not realize that his E is a small AoE.

Btw a personal tip to playing swain and a fun one If the enemy adc plays around their casters minions, you can basicly aim the max range of e at the minions and it will proc it on the minions but also at the champ behind them. THis might have a small hitbox sometimes since the adc or target usually has to be like almost on the caster minions but its a nice way to caught them off guard to do your combo and such

[@sammysaito529]

*get hit by 1 E and half your health bar disappeared*

[@susamogus5693]

Well early you do your full combo Will (at most) deal half health damage and after that all you can do is Just basic because all your abilities have long af cooldowns early

[@rongchuayachie6189]

as a swain main, I laughed so hard

[@tylertran522]

Bonus tip: your passive pull works with allied hard cc that leaves the enemy targetable.Two cases that catch enemies by surprise are that you can pull from allied rift herald charge and allied blast cone cc. So if the enemy is desperate to chunk down shelly and gets cced, you can pull them and if you're chasing a melee character through the jgl, activate the blast cone before they do for a free pull.

[@Unknowledgeable1]

0:04 I love how you get straight to the point, Dobby. I like that adverb, "First,". Time to use it in my essays.

It’s common for some reason to pop ult in team fight before zhonia. Most of the time, you should let it run through zhonia for extra healing, and look to pop it after, or ideally during with timeout

[@n64p3]

You heal still when Zhonia’s

tip that I found surprising as a swain main, you can use passive to pull enemies who use blast cone to escape if you are quick enough.

[@IbnBattutaEG]

I never played Swain pre-rework but when he got reworked, I tried him and he literally made me cry in pain on how bad I was at controlling him as if you're playing Yasuo or Zed for a first time. After 10~20 games, I started dealing damage and be the main carry in every game, dealing the highest damage, and even be the most honored for the wins that I've him now at MR7, easy to get S, and my friends ask me to play Swain whenever they need a win. Point of the story; Swain's kit might be complicated and hard to master at first due to being skillshots but with practice in less than 15 games maximum, you'll be able to master him and it can carry you to gold league with ease as Support.

Swain is the top-rated "ADC" right now, has been for two patches, whiles he's a B-tier rated support. It's definitely a harder playstyle for him, but Bot-Swain seems to shine way more than Supp-Swain, at least for the time being.

[@carnivorze1052]

He's the best ADC since more than a year

Nice video man! Do u think is viable as a solo laner?, i already see swain supp is optimal but in low elo the adc seems soo pasive. Is worth to main as a solo laner? Any tips for runes for mid/top? cuz i try conquer and PR and it seems situational. Regards from Chile! (im not a native speaker xd)

Thank you :) showmaker uses it as midlaner sometimes, but I think it's difficult use it as mid or top yet . fow.kr/find/showmakerzzz showmaker use PhaseRush as mid yesterday !

Can swain play solo as a midlaner or toplaner in the 2021 preseason update ? Thank you :33

[@ehwaz919]

Yeah. Use grasp

[@blacklight1104]

I did just that. I'm not too sure if it's because it's a normal game where everybody is mostly practicing but I did well enough on him with Dark harvest. Early on, your Q also obliterates people when they try to melee you. It catches people off guard due to the sheer damage it can output when they think they're gonna win the trade. Edit: Your R also gives bonus health along with healing and helps fool people who think they're gonna burst you.

[@wamslaah]

I semi-OTP Swain in the Midlane. Works very well but has some hard matchups (Fizz, Zed, Katarina,Ekko. Basically anything that can easily dodge your E). But against other control mages like Syndra, Ahri, etc it's really strong and you scale tremendously into late game. Take the Domination Page with Electrocute but in the secondary tree Manaflow and Transcendence because you need the extra mana and CDR so you can Spam your Q. Max Q, W, E. Really fun, too :)

[@sirvirtuous]

Yeah, I hitted Master with it

[@oMeawkungo]

it's funny that after I watched this video ,I just carried the team with swain sup. even I surprised

[@illitris3086]

Why not W max? it increases range, allowing you use it in other lanes, and makes those short lane trades hit a lot harder

[@Iznikroc]

very long CD and your Q(lower CD) and E(easy elec proc) provide more consistent damage.

[@sammysaito529]

I mean if you’re confident enough that you’ll hit the majority of your W then sure, I normally maxed it second because Q is just very good

[@swaingaming3788]

why do you teach people to play a TOPLANE BRUISER support

[@johnnyjohn3204]

Conqueror is better imo.

[@dum5882]

I think it depends, it definitely makes him more powerful late game, but electrocute is great for burst in early game, it really depends on whether you want to punish early or have a stronger late game with a littlemore sustain, not that electrocute is weak late game though.

[@ZivelaYugoslavija]
