One thing most players fail to understand about Stardust: Aurelion doesn't need to kill anything inside his E to get stardust, he just needs things to DIE inside his E, no matter the source of what kills them. You can let a wave push to your tower, E it, and then not get a single cs but you will still get stardust for every death. It's a massive help for stacking early and the literal 0 dmg dealt by E + the execute threshold will almost guarantee that you will get most minions.
True, it tilts me when I E a wave and fly away or I’m near it and E and they don’t touch the minions till the E is done when I’m wanting them to get the farm.
I mean sorta, you do still need to attack the minions yourself because tower will get you two or three if your lucky, but yes you dont need the last hit

I think that the drag in of the e not counting as a slow making it synergies with slow effects (since only one slow can be applied at once) is like the biggest issue on new asol , making it rly hard to push in the lategame against him. I like how u still mentioned vlad and kassa. I dont think of asol as a huge issue as those 2 abomination mentioned. They just have way to safe lanes (free sustain on minions why ever ) while asol can be punished rly hard at least.
@@skulls122 dude its hard to just carry with q because w is your only escape tool you must only use w if you are going to be sade afterwards and if you waste e you cant hit your r in midgame by default you just win after 400-500 stacks because your ult becomes nearly undodgeable
Asol player here! I'd like to add something I don't rly see anyone do. You can cancel your w while still using q if you're in a good spot (retap w). I actually saw a lot of people miss kills or dmg because they canceled everything with right click or because they fly too far.
Catalyst of Aeons is great for sustaining in lane, you get mana when you get hit and you restore health when using mana (which as aurelion, you're going to be doing loads of anyway). It probably isn't optimal but if you're building rod and you're not having a great time surviving it might help.
he is way too op now. he is also unkillable because his escape is just ridiculous. ngl the design is pretty bad-ass, its fun to play. but its simply not fun to play against.
Gotta nerf A sol but Senna and samira get to stay broken forever with infinite damage and life steal. God forbid Riot suffers twitter backlash by nerfing minority females.
One (possibly inefficient but favored by me) strat is to max E first. It deals enough damage to clear waves when used correctly, Q still hurts because it also scales with level. Tear also isnt needed in the beginning and I usually dont buy it because with tear, Rylais and Mythic (RoA) your inventory is already way too full to put any real defensives or situationals in without giving up boots. The big thing about E max tho is that you have to interact with your lane opponent way less. With matchups like vs. Syndra you will get punished pretty much every time you go for a Q. Thats where E shines in giving you nice range for a lower but still fine damage output. E also helps you keep up with stacks without dying. When I play against ASols and pick Syndra (which is a really bad matchup nonetheless, dont get me wrong) they usually dont even get a lot of stacks in and have like 100 at the 20 minute mark. E gives you a consistent way of aquiring stacks without risking too much. You also dont really need maxed Q that early, channeling during W is unlimited anyways and it only eats up mana. During an average you dont really stand in place Q-ing for over 3 seconds in combat, so there is really no need. Also, mid-20 minutes is the best time for ASol and you will have Q maxed by that time anyways. Is it optimal? Probably not. Is it safe, frees up an item slot and is way less stressful to play? For me, at the very least, it is.
It's ineffficient strat for sure and not optimal, but at least you've got some good reasoning with match ups and such. Sadly not only it's suboptimal but they'll be nerfing it next patch too, since E cd will be now 12 sec flat CD, instead of scaling down to 10. Which ironically won't make Q max Sols feel it at all, while it will low key shit on your strat.
@@MrMrtvozornik true, but it might be worth experimenting with putting the points in it when dealing with shit matchups like Tristana where you can E and fly away. Better? No idea.
@@googlepoodle5814 Nah, you're already champion that feels weak pre 9 since Q doesn't infinitely scale, and you really can't rely on W part where it's infinite. The better elo you play in the more you have to Q for 1-2 seconds, then W and Q for another 1-2 seconds and again stop W so you can Q from the ground again. Movement is too good on people, and since you don't insta kill anyone before solid 4 items, nor your Q is long enough to simply follow them you have to play around. My suggestion against such hard match ups is : 1. Dodge, let's be real. 2. Play with runes, will you win that match up with more damage? No. So don't go damage, no FS nor Comet, go for spell book, which should give you health rotation of barrier/exhaust/heal/ghost to survive all ins. Added benefit is you can actually take clarity with spellbook and sort of cheat 2 more waves when you look like you're oom. Secondary runes you go Boneplating and Overgrowth, that should give you another safety blanket versus tristana/sylas/yone all ins. 3.Face the fact you won't be carry that game. Even once you get 2 items the match up won't turn in your favor, so you have to play as anti carry and use macro. If you're facing Yone, your job isn't to kill him, your job is to live under your tower making him mald but also stay healthy enough so if ever he chooses to rage roam on your bot, you shove in 2 waves fast and take one plate. You wouldn't believe how many times I've won against diamond/master yone players that simply lost their mental. I go in the game knowing I'm his b*tch and I act accordingly. I contest no CS, I go for no poke, I only flop my c*ck out when I'm under my tower in safety but I shove that way like a annoying cockroach once he's gone from lane. They simply lose the mental game, either diving me and going 1 for 1, which is in my favor, or rage roaming around coin flipping. Can he get fed off roams and carry his team? Sure, but that's the thing when you play Anivia, Veigar or Sol, it's not your fault, you can't follow. Your team can play accordingly and back off or int, not your fault. You're already *sshole for picking Sol to behonest, that's like picking Kayle, you're already saying ''Guys, for first 15 min I need you to give them everything'' and honestly, that's enough to lose many games with aggro players that like to coin flip level 1. But who cares, if you're deciding on playing Sol, you're already committed to it, all you can do is actually do your scaling part and scale, then carry later. P.S. You can't really fly away from Tristana if you aren't Ring behind yourself. Any competent Tristana will manage to blow her E on you while you're flying away if she used W on top of you, then reset her W and jump again. Since your W is so small early levels Trist must be bad to not follow you. She can also R you out of your W too, which sounds like saving you but 3-4 autos and fully stacked E, plus ignite and R damage means you still die, just a screen away from her. Besides, any good Trist mid would just stand in front of her minions zoning you from ever casting E in the first place first 3 levels.
I have been going for a Rod Of Ages into Rylai's into comic drive or horizon focus and lastly Rabadon. For shoes sorcerers shoes are almost always the best option. I dont like the Liandry's build at all. Rod Of Ages gives sustain and mana regen in the early game and a lot of bonus stats in the mid game if you finish it fast enough. None of my Other items have any mana or mana regen Thats how Good Rod Of Ages is in keeping your mana pool alive. Just make sure to not abuse your Q on minninons and you are good to go.
@@Crowned_Hearts I'd suggest building Catalyst first, then going all in for the rylais. If you get the full Rod before your rylais, your free level won't have as much impact as it would after getting rylais because it takes more and more exp to level up. Also the utility from Rylais is just too good to ignore
The biggest problema I find when facing asol is how infuriatingly tanky he is in combination with his slipperiness. Roa, RCS, Seraphs and some other items depending on the situation make him have around 3.5 to 4k health (+ like 800 shield from seraphs). All the while getting healing from roa which is deceptively strong, it's just not burst healing as most people are used to but it's not uncommon to find it healing upwards of 7k hp in a 25-30 minute game. He's basically impossible pick off unless he mispositions really badly for any assasin or burst mage, and even if he does fuck up he still has his w that is unstoppable if you don't have hard cc that he can use whenever he pleases to just piss off and spit his starshit at you. Can't speak for kassadin since I don't play him that much but even though Vlad does outscale him damage wise he can still never beat him in side lane because of his superior 1v1 and he makes vlads teamfights insanely difficult to play with his permanent slows, high damage, cc and executie. Vlad basically cannot kill Asol after first item unless Asol is really bad, doesn't help that all his items are FAR cheaper than Vlads. I find him to be a solid counterpick into Vlad if you know what Vlad does it's borderline impossible to die to him while keeping up in scaling really well or even outscaling into situations where both teams are quite tanky.
this is the stupidest champion created yet. Riot dropped all pretense with mobility creep and just said were going to make a literal god that just flies wherever he wants and does whatever be wants. its fine because hes now permanently banned
Moblity creep on ASol? His flight is slow, easily interruptable and very telegraphed, with very bad range early on. There are many things that are too strong about him, mainly damage not dependend on money or levels, but mobility is definetely NOT the issue on this champ.
I’m glad to hear that what I have learned and what I am doing in the early game and with dmat is correct. I definitely need to work on Q weaving more in the mid/late game.
I guess it just depends if you enjoy more firing damage from the backside or constantly engaging fights and catching people. I'm more the 2nd type, so I'm with you on this one 😁
I enjoy some Asol APC. I ask for a support that can kill minions in my E, and if I get one that's on board with the Plan I can get 150 at 15 minutes, and after that it's pure scaling.
Best thing that wasnt stated in this video is there's a CHINESE Aurelion sol build ( Rylais -> Ludens ) with cheapshot is INSANE ( which is my favorite build currently )
@@rogueObscura You counted 10? Doubt League could make so many with China being a big part of the fanbase. Besides, that sort of stuff wasn't pushed in games before what? 2020?
As an old ASol main, this rework is a failure. Not only did he lose his identity by removing his stars, but the fact that he is so easy and broken to play is just disgusting..
L take from an L player. He’s way more enticing as a champion while actually living up to his theme of being a celestial dragon. His prior skill expression was cringe and not worth building upon
New asol is literally one of most op broken disgusting things ive seen even worse than release yasuo. Even braindead bronze/silver players can easily get 8+ farm/min literally melt p;layers and teams with few button presses. Asol needs to be nerfed to oblivion because atm he is WAY too op
My strategy is to play sol in the botlane. If you play him mid, you're just giving the enemy prio to roam permanently and win the game before you spike. Not to mention how vulnerable he is in lane early. Additionally, there are two enemy champions bot. Your e can get about 5 to 6 stacks if they stand in it. This can be more worthwhile than getting a wave. Not the main source of stardust, but definitely a good one.
Same bro haha. Bot lane works so much better for me with something like Nautilus or Alistar. Your mid is then free to roam and not just a dragon that sits under tower waiting to hit his powerspikes. This is the way.
Gotta love how people are crying for years how old Aatrox got assassinated, meanwhile Asol changed from a macroheavy high skillcap champ into one of the most boring designs I have ever seen. If you dont stand still while holding Q you fly around while holding Q. It feels like a pure statcheck and most of his scaling is just numbers based. Syndra also got a stacking passive but at least they somewhat change her abilities and her base kit was already more interesting with her ball shenanigans.
"one of the most boring designs..." surely thats why he went from one of the least picked champions to one of the most picked banned champions... surely because people find him boring now lmao
@@cosmichaze1482 1. Doesn't matter the change, it's completely natural for the pickrate to increase after the rework. 2. People don't keep playing him because of how fun it is, but because of how strong it is. How boring the champion is have completely nothing to do with it's pick and ban rate. You clearly don't know much about the game lel.
@@cosmichaze1482 boring and broken/op are two very different things. And 90% of his game play is hold q. His ultimate is satisfying but that's mostly it on "feels good conceptually not just cause op"
@@tyszqwdym not fun? he's one the most fun mages out there for me and I've played the old one till i get M5. Yeah not so much maybe but definitely i have enough experience to compare.
horrible design, 15 min autoscroller into a champ which uses mostly 1 spell, a continuous one you stay there and press 1 button or 2, like omega boring
Tbh old asol was the same w w w w use ult for someone who is near or want to jump on u sometimes e to catch team or try make big q what u miss in 95% so yea from w to q
Gp is beyond broken ppl just dont know how to abuse him while asol is easier and u know how to abuse but in the end from skill mechanic and dmg gp is fuckin abomination with these barrels
He'll get his mana pool attacked non-stoped by poke supports. it won't be "easier", it's just a lot more risky because it's even more matchup dependant (especially support match up dependant) than it is on midlane. And it will also be more impacted by how both junglers play the game. As a botlaner, it's basically a Kogmaw with slightly better escape but less trade potential. So it won't be "easier", it's just another different game, that is a lot more risky, but that can be more rewarding in some situation.
Delusional low elo. If you argued he is on their level would be one thing, but arguing that those two can't 1v5 while HE can straight up tells everyone you're gold IV at best.
Yea its funny how u need time and stacks with items to be around equal with kass or vlad when kassadin is first powerspike after 6 and vlad in late heal 65% hp of each q even with grivouus wounds. Yes Asol is good and he is near broken but u have so many chance and champs who can outscale him faster or just finish game without let him get 450+ stacks
@@Tomil4444 You know what's the issue? Kass has flash that deals 800 damage every 2,5 seconds. Vlad can be untargetable while doing over 1,5k damage of AoE around him. Literally. Legitimately. No. F*cking. Counterplay. They're both champions that once they get to X point, if you ain't got someone like Ryze to point and click that's it. But Sol, even when 4 items can still be killed during his W, no invulnerability, less tanky than Vlad despite building RoA, absolutely no DASHES, yet alone flashes. But but but but, it's a stat check champ that can fly over a wall, stat check one dude, get reset and then do the same thing again 4 more times. And low elos can't position for sh*t. I play in silver/gold elo all the time with my IRL friends and amount of times 40 min games are decided by who has the bigger mentally stunted player that gets caught for NO reason is insane. Drake soul spawning? Nah dude, someone needs to farm raptors on the other side of the map, lading to him recalling when it's 40 second pre drake and setting up no vision nor controlling the choke points for drake fight but they keep saying they were there on time. When on time for drakes is a minute ahead, not 5 seconds before it spawns. It's honestly disgusting. And that's why Sol is unfair to them, because they keep getting caught in dumb places with no reason to be there, combined with the fact that even silver Sol WILL stat check you moment he sees you. But you can't really explain this stuff to them, it's the same elo that is perma banning darius for 7 years despite him being OP for only period of 1,5 years. It's the same elo that makes Morgana have 25% ban rate while being sub 3% popularity moment you get above D4-D2. There's no reasoning with them, there's no logic, if they wanted to think, they wouldn't be in silver/gold in the first place. Edit: Also, people in lower elos don't know how to finish the game properly, so all games last approximately 7-10 minutes longer, which is huge for infinite scaling champions like Sol. There's a thing that Vlad and Kass actually lack compared to Sol, which is infinite scaling. Kass' power spike of 16 can be felt, but if he doesn't carry at 16, he won't be that much stronger at 18, while Sol doesn't have a cap. To everyone in any decent elo it's clear that if you didn't win a game that was effectively 5v4 first 15 min and you've let it go to 35, you deserve to lose, but not to low elo people. Second edit point: People in silver/gold FEAR towers. Play Sol in silver is chill experience if you know how to do wave management. If they pick Fizz or Yone that are insanely good into Sol, a smart player will also go Spellbook+Bone plating. Ever saw a silver Sol pick Spellbook? Of course not, they're playing damage champion, they only take damage runes. I main support with mid being secondary role and Sol was my go to ''wave clearing duty'' champ in my off role. And boy let me tell you, you get dove at least twice in first 14 minutes before plates fall above Diamond. Meanwhile level 4 shyvanas with double buffs don't even know they can solo drake on spawn and act like tower dives are death sentences. People in silver literally pick champs like Elise, Mao, Master or Evelynn and then proceed to not DIVE ONCE in whole game. It's honestly disgusting.
@@MrMrtvozornik u shot facts like machine gun xD but yes u are right and since all Players dont look of ur picks so when u play asol without tanks and have 2 adc on bot elise in jungle and some squishy on top u cant literally go in in tf bcs ur team lacks some frontline what is needed for sol.

I dont like the Liandry's build at all. Rod Of Ages gives sustain and mana regen in the early game and a lot of bonus stats in the mid game if you finish it fast enough. None of my Other items have any mana or mana regen Thats how Good Rod Of Ages is in keeping your mana pool alive. Just make sure to not abuse your Q on minninons and you are good to go.
But liandry with luden give u the best dps over all mythic items
@@Tomil4444Isnt luden a mythic too? Also I like sustain Rod Of Ages gives overall the Best stats
@@Crowned_Hearts I'd suggest building Catalyst first, then going all in for the rylais. If you get the full Rod before your rylais, your free level won't have as much impact as it would after getting rylais because it takes more and more exp to level up. Also the utility from Rylais is just too good to ignore
The biggest problema I find when facing asol is how infuriatingly tanky he is in combination with his slipperiness. Roa, RCS, Seraphs and some other items depending on the situation make him have around 3.5 to 4k health (+ like 800 shield from seraphs). All the while getting healing from roa which is deceptively strong, it's just not burst healing as most people are used to but it's not uncommon to find it healing upwards of 7k hp in a 25-30 minute game.
He's basically impossible pick off unless he mispositions really badly for any assasin or burst mage, and even if he does fuck up he still has his w that is unstoppable if you don't have hard cc that he can use whenever he pleases to just piss off and spit his starshit at you.
Can't speak for kassadin since I don't play him that much but even though Vlad does outscale him damage wise he can still never beat him in side lane because of his superior 1v1 and he makes vlads teamfights insanely difficult to play with his permanent slows, high damage, cc and executie. Vlad basically cannot kill Asol after first item unless Asol is really bad, doesn't help that all his items are FAR cheaper than Vlads. I find him to be a solid counterpick into Vlad if you know what Vlad does it's borderline impossible to die to him while keeping up in scaling really well or even outscaling into situations where both teams are quite tanky.
this is the stupidest champion created yet. Riot dropped all pretense with mobility creep and just said were going to make a literal god that just flies wherever he wants and does whatever be wants. its fine because hes now permanently banned
Remember when Aphelios was a problem? How naive we were
Moblity creep on ASol? His flight is slow, easily interruptable and very telegraphed, with very bad range early on. There are many things that are too strong about him, mainly damage not dependend on money or levels, but mobility is definetely NOT the issue on this champ.
Make a literal god? I mean... that is lore accurate lmao
@@cosmichaze1482 yeah well league of legends is a competitive videogame not a lore book
@@lubue5795 "his flight is slow" are you kidding
My record for stardust is 1100 in ranked game 😅
The closing statement intrigues me, since I play Kayle.
I’m glad to hear that what I have learned and what I am doing in the early game and with dmat is correct. I definitely need to work on Q weaving more in the mid/late game.
Is it just me or new Aurelion is more boring to play then the old one
I guess it just depends if you enjoy more firing damage from the backside or constantly engaging fights and catching people.
I'm more the 2nd type, so I'm with you on this one 😁
@@PierreMiniggio just from gameplay perspective...idk man I didnt try him yet but he seems more boring then he was with stars abilities
I enjoy some Asol APC. I ask for a support that can kill minions in my E, and if I get one that's on board with the Plan I can get 150 at 15 minutes, and after that it's pure scaling.
youll be getting stacks, but what about gold?
Are you still making the rumble video with Timal?

a video on asol when he's getting nerfed again aaaaaaaaaaaa
E+R feels like the oldest Amumu or GP ults that took over entire lane in width.
As an old ASol main, this rework is a failure. Not only did he lose his identity by removing his stars, but the fact that he is so easy and broken to play is just disgusting..
L take from an L player.
He’s way more enticing as a champion while actually living up to his theme of being a celestial dragon. His prior skill expression was cringe and not worth building upon
@@Keurgui1 waiting for the asol rework on wild rift
Don't worry, once he gets gutted, no one will play him again :)
Mained also old asol. I find he is more of a dragon now. The 3 piniatas dealt no dmg in the end
Holy, we found one
WE FOUND AN ASOL MAIN
New asol is literally one of most op broken disgusting things ive seen even worse than release yasuo. Even braindead bronze/silver players can easily get 8+ farm/min literally melt p;layers and teams with few button presses. Asol needs to be nerfed to oblivion because atm he is WAY too op
I hate the new sol but goddamn he looks badass killing me
Disgusting champion design 😠😠😠
Reworked Aurelion Sol so good guys hes like very strong and amazing ... then proceed to shit all over everything he does 💀💀
1 point is wrong YOU ARE THE MOST BROKEN CHAMP ON FIELD ON A 40 MIN GAME
yeah but... 13.10..... lost chapter is kinda like, broken? on asol?
don't
So AS went from an early game bully to Veigar with mobility. Neat.
As a Veigar main I really hate A Sol, he's now just the same but a lot more powerful.
@@aimilios439 fake af

Am i the only one that dont like the rework? Is not enough to do justice to his presence and theme
Beatable
i really miss asols old kit…
same. but i only miss playing against it because it was ass
My strategy is to play sol in the botlane. If you play him mid, you're just giving the enemy prio to roam permanently and win the game before you spike. Not to mention how vulnerable he is in lane early.
Additionally, there are two enemy champions bot. Your e can get about 5 to 6 stacks if they stand in it. This can be more worthwhile than getting a wave. Not the main source of stardust, but definitely a good one.
Same bro haha. Bot lane works so much better for me with something like Nautilus or Alistar.
Your mid is then free to roam and not just a dragon that sits under tower waiting to hit his powerspikes.
This is the way.
@@hipsterwaldo its good to see im not the only enlightened bot sol :)
I don't know win rates kinda tell a diffrent story.
thats will be nice but, he is permabanned xd
He is absolutely broken in ARAM.
I wish they would bring the re work to wild rift ❤
Same here
It used to be my favorite champ but after the rework im hating it , i don't understand why the players had a different opinion on it all this time
meanwhile morde and yorick aware of his existence and bugs what a team fight ??? wellcome to hell and split pushing with a gurateed kill before death.
getting really tired of people comparting how broken he is to the likes of Illaoi, GP Irelia, Camille or Yasuo. Its not even compatable
DongHuaP, who do you think is the best champion in the game for a 40min scenario?
He should not be able to use his dragon's breath inside walls. There is zero counterplay for mele characters, which is complete bullshit
Please do video on azzapps velkoz!
old asol was much more fun. sad that riot just deletes champions that don't have a large player base.
Gotta love how people are crying for years how old Aatrox got assassinated, meanwhile Asol changed from a macroheavy high skillcap champ into one of the most boring designs I have ever seen. If you dont stand still while holding Q you fly around while holding Q. It feels like a pure statcheck and most of his scaling is just numbers based. Syndra also got a stacking passive but at least they somewhat change her abilities and her base kit was already more interesting with her ball shenanigans.
"one of the most boring designs..." surely thats why he went from one of the least picked champions to one of the most picked banned champions... surely because people find him boring now lmao
@@cosmichaze1482 1. Doesn't matter the change, it's completely natural for the pickrate to increase after the rework.
2. People don't keep playing him because of how fun it is, but because of how strong it is.
How boring the champion is have completely nothing to do with it's pick and ban rate. You clearly don't know much about the game lel.
@@cosmichaze1482 boring and broken/op are two very different things. And 90% of his game play is hold q. His ultimate is satisfying but that's mostly it on "feels good conceptually not just cause op"

scales better than kassadin
Oh asol is broken…
Better nerf gangplank 🤡
Gp is beyond broken ppl just dont know how to abuse him while asol is easier and u know how to abuse but in the end from skill mechanic and dmg gp is fuckin abomination with these barrels
Feels like he should be played botlane, he plays like an adc, and bot lane would allow him to farm easier and trade more often to get stacks
He'll get his mana pool attacked non-stoped by poke supports.
it won't be "easier", it's just a lot more risky because it's even more matchup dependant (especially support match up dependant) than it is on midlane.
And it will also be more impacted by how both junglers play the game.
As a botlaner, it's basically a Kogmaw with slightly better escape but less trade potential.
So it won't be "easier", it's just another different game, that is a lot more risky, but that can be more rewarding in some situation.
so like a Zeri moment gotcha

Delusional low elo. If you argued he is on their level would be one thing, but arguing that those two can't 1v5 while HE can straight up tells everyone you're gold IV at best.
@@MrMrtvozornik thats true its funny how someone see asol is stronger just by pickrate
Yea its funny how u need time and stacks with items to be around equal with kass or vlad when kassadin is first powerspike after 6 and vlad in late heal 65% hp of each q even with grivouus wounds. Yes Asol is good and he is near broken but u have so many chance and champs who can outscale him faster or just finish game without let him get 450+ stacks
@@Tomil4444 You know what's the issue? Kass has flash that deals 800 damage every 2,5 seconds. Vlad can be untargetable while doing over 1,5k damage of AoE around him. Literally. Legitimately. No. F*cking. Counterplay. They're both champions that once they get to X point, if you ain't got someone like Ryze to point and click that's it.
But Sol, even when 4 items can still be killed during his W, no invulnerability, less tanky than Vlad despite building RoA, absolutely no DASHES, yet alone flashes. But but but but, it's a stat check champ that can fly over a wall, stat check one dude, get reset and then do the same thing again 4 more times. And low elos can't position for sh*t. I play in silver/gold elo all the time with my IRL friends and amount of times 40 min games are decided by who has the bigger mentally stunted player that gets caught for NO reason is insane. Drake soul spawning? Nah dude, someone needs to farm raptors on the other side of the map, lading to him recalling when it's 40 second pre drake and setting up no vision nor controlling the choke points for drake fight but they keep saying they were there on time. When on time for drakes is a minute ahead, not 5 seconds before it spawns. It's honestly disgusting. And that's why Sol is unfair to them, because they keep getting caught in dumb places with no reason to be there, combined with the fact that even silver Sol WILL stat check you moment he sees you.
But you can't really explain this stuff to them, it's the same elo that is perma banning darius for 7 years despite him being OP for only period of 1,5 years. It's the same elo that makes Morgana have 25% ban rate while being sub 3% popularity moment you get above D4-D2. There's no reasoning with them, there's no logic, if they wanted to think, they wouldn't be in silver/gold in the first place.
Edit: Also, people in lower elos don't know how to finish the game properly, so all games last approximately 7-10 minutes longer, which is huge for infinite scaling champions like Sol. There's a thing that Vlad and Kass actually lack compared to Sol, which is infinite scaling. Kass' power spike of 16 can be felt, but if he doesn't carry at 16, he won't be that much stronger at 18, while Sol doesn't have a cap. To everyone in any decent elo it's clear that if you didn't win a game that was effectively 5v4 first 15 min and you've let it go to 35, you deserve to lose, but not to low elo people.
Second edit point: People in silver/gold FEAR towers. Play Sol in silver is chill experience if you know how to do wave management. If they pick Fizz or Yone that are insanely good into Sol, a smart player will also go Spellbook+Bone plating. Ever saw a silver Sol pick Spellbook? Of course not, they're playing damage champion, they only take damage runes. I main support with mid being secondary role and Sol was my go to ''wave clearing duty'' champ in my off role. And boy let me tell you, you get dove at least twice in first 14 minutes before plates fall above Diamond. Meanwhile level 4 shyvanas with double buffs don't even know they can solo drake on spawn and act like tower dives are death sentences. People in silver literally pick champs like Elise, Mao, Master or Evelynn and then proceed to not DIVE ONCE in whole game. It's honestly disgusting.
@@MrMrtvozornik u shot facts like machine gun xD but yes u are right and since all Players dont look of ur picks so when u play asol without tanks and have 2 adc on bot elise in jungle and some squishy on top u cant literally go in in tf bcs ur team lacks some frontline what is needed for sol. Random silence stop q recast w is 16/20 sec so if u fk up angle u are done. While vlad or kass with bad postion or bad teamfight?
