ZWAG! 20 minutes of my life to tell you: the Cyclosword proc'd 51 times that game; 23 against champions, 7 against objectives, and 21 times against minions and camps. Pre mitigation damage is 100 per proc. However, you missed a ton of opportunities for them. Every fight you would start with max stacks, but do your QQE combo and dashes before hitting a basic attack. Really, the coolest thing about it is that her R charges it to full. At best, you got 3 procs in one team fight but usually just one on the solo kills. The best fight is at 16:30 where you get one on the frontline, R onto Kaisa for a second, and chase down Yone for the third. Stats: the comment section's way of saying 'thank you' :D
Methinks building her tank with emphasis on ability haste would be hilarious, since she can keep her energy up if she keeps attacking, and she can keep attacking if she tanky.
The problem with lethality Briar is that she's designed to be a DPS champ. Ambessa is designed to be a bursty diver. As long as Vi and Pantheon can build lethality, Ambessa can.
@@c.j.8263 I think the briar situation was that Riot was constantly nerfing her bruiser builds without her win rate decreasing because it was actually her lethality builds that were cooking. I can see that same situation happening here.
I was the Anivia in this game and I have to say its pretty difficult hitting anything with a 200 ping xD (Im from Germany) It was an honor playing with you, great game it was so much fun ^^
Ojalá le hubiesen puesto más empeño a su modelo base y a sus animaciones en general, porque no puedo evitar pensar que estoy jugando Shyvana con una skin de Ambessa.
They only think about the LGBT community. For many years they have not been able to release a properly designed champion. This time a strong and independent grandmother assassin with millions of dashes.
It looks like her R just looks at who is the furthest target after the channel and it doesn't dash you behind the target, it blinks you there. They are suppressed, and you are unstoppable, so nothing can remove either of you from the animation
Yes she's viable, I beat a Kayn and Viego in kr master elo a couple days ago. That said I think I'd rather play Kayn because Ambessa can't dash over walls, and honestly she's not as overpowered as I'd expected. Her dashes aren't instantaneous so it's not like you can consistently dodge every skill shot thrown at you
I wonder if Hail of Blades instead of Electrocute would enable the auto attack weaving? Electrocute is no slouch but it’s worth a test when I get my hands on her.
@@lainelowe603 ohhhh, I see. That is a good point but you can stack up your enhanced autos, that’s what those little rectangles are under her HP Bar. I think it’s totally possible to QQWE and then auto three times before your autos disappear. This is when I wish I had a PBE account lol
Probably she was created with 1 auto attack item in mind, like Trinity. Has all the stats and passives she wants and has a bit of Attack Speed. The AS from Trinity + her passive should be good enough to pull it in a satisfactory way
Since electrocute is nice on her, I suppose phase rush would also be easy to proc. Not like she needs the move speed from it to chase anyone, but I suppose would make running away from bad situations easier. Oooh, press the attack also looks promising. Anything that procs from 3 separate hits looks very nice.
Love the dichotomy between saying "the moment I get CC'd I'm done" and the very next thing out of your mouth with not even a breath between them being "I'm gonna get armor boots"
I could be wrong but with her ulti giving her a 30% armor pen passive i dont think lethality is even super necissary. You can probably pick up a 2nd %armor pen item and then just buy survivability based AD items.
Coming up with her best build, i think Eclipse Cyclosword Grudge Then do 2 tank items. You have 51% pen and 20ish lethality. You need barriers and resistances from there to just dominate.
Yeah, i mentioned half of his items in the first video he made. I th8nk the most broken way to build her is eclipse, black cleaver, shojin, voltaic cyclosword axiom arc. Conquerer, triump, alacrity, cutdown, sudden impact, and eyeball collector or ultimate hunter. Bruiser assassin would probably be best for her. Tanky while still having crazy assassin damage and the ability to dominate any match-up because she'll still shred tanks with that build. Also, she's going to be broken and riot went the wrong direction with this champ because it is basically riven except she can instantly access the backline with her ult further ruining the adc experience. The only way to counter her is with point and click assassins, otherwise, she wins every single 1v1.
I do appreciate that while Zwag was running amok brutalizing everyone with the new champ, he was also spending a lot of time highlighting all the different ways his opponents could be shutting him down. Makes Ambessa seem a lot more balanced than she otherwise would have. She's super strong, no doubt, but there is counter play (cc, ranged champs, etc).
14:50 out of the last 20 champs released only 5 of them dont use mana, and Ambessa is the first energy based champ since zed, not including the shen/akali reworks. Yone, viego, belveth, briar and Ambessa
The really scary thing about the lethality build is that she has passive armor pen from her R. 10% at 6, 20% at 11, and i am not at the 16 yet but i would guess 30%. Add on a Grudge and do full Lethality, and even Rammuss would melt.
I've been praying to see a cyclosword video on this since I saw how many dashes there were (and also extra range autos), but why did you not take fleet with it>> the 75% charge speed upgrade affects ALL energize procs, including fleet; so it'd be like getting a second keystone... sadge
I would love to see a flicker blade on her with full dmg and lifesteal build and max shield second so it's permanentl, up and all dmg that you take you heal back during shield maybe eclipse or BT second?
Hey zwag i love your videos and i watch all of them, but i have a little thing that i have always wanted you to do.. can you put the name of music you play somewhere on the screen?
so you got extreme mobility? what could complement that? maybe extra dmg? maybe extra shield? zwag: i want to slow enemies and have extra movespeed...............................................
i think you want eclipse first, hubris second and then cyclosword third, then your next two items are profane hydra and bloodthirster (she scales crazy on raw ad and gets extra benefit from lifesteal) and then maybe you replace boots with edge of night since you dont rly need the move speed with all the dashes
i think i guessed how the ult is programed it has to be like ORNN ult starting from the back and it teleports you to the "first" person the invisible ram hits
13:45 You CAN dash over walls. At least in wild rift you can. With every single ability. You just have to be right up against the wall to do it with q,w,e
@@JeffGranja27 hwei was good imo, not insanely strong but not weak either. just has a lot of abilities which makes people think its another 200 years champ but he's pretty well balanced
I think that you only need to build heartsteel. She is guaranteed to get 1 per target every stack. She just sticks to them. And probably next is getting a bloodthirst , a spirit visage, cooldown boots, a black cleaver. last, a guardian angel or deaths dance. Items not necessarily in that order except heartsteel. In any case, she is too broken in an isolated lane. At least with melee champions. I see her very weak pre 6, but the powerspike after is just too extreme. She will get nerfed with the energy regen on aa. Im sure. They wont touch the rest of the kit.
Hey, why dont you use a Handcam for your gameplay? Especially since you have a Website where you sell Keyboards, so it would be great at showing your porducts.

i second this idea
problem is her base damage sucks, even playing her as a bruiser doesn’t do the most damage
Full offtank (warlords/titanic/heartsteel etc) w conq and legend:bloodline since her healing scales off lifesteal sounds gross
And u will do zero damage
A tank with no cc and no damage. You'd make her a very mobile health bar, that's for sure! 👍

"Mobility creep", they say.

Riot shouldn't be afraid of work.
22:34 yone and brair saw you coming at them thay run so far way 😂😂😂😂
Hope you try her in jungle. Seems like she could perform well with her good gap closing and aoe for clear

Eclipse
Cyclosword
Grudge
Then do 2 tank items. You have 51% pen and 20ish lethality. You need barriers and resistances from there to just dominate.
Can you try lethality with 2 lifesteal or spellvamp items in the jng cause I wanna see the 0 to hero moments
hey man! how about a shaco that has navori and is using hail of blades. can unlimited dashes work?
Yeah, i mentioned half of his items in the first video he made. I th8nk the most broken way to build her is eclipse, black cleaver, shojin, voltaic cyclosword axiom arc.

YOu talking about low attack speed made me think of triforce and how the sheen protc would tack with your other damage.
Idk why but Zwag saying “who has 20 dashes? THIS THING!” was so funny to me.
I do appreciate that while Zwag was running amok brutalizing everyone with the new champ, he was also spending a lot of time highlighting all the different ways his opponents could be shutting him down. Makes Ambessa seem a lot more balanced than she otherwise would have.
She's super strong, no doubt, but there is counter play (cc, ranged champs, etc).
Would Dark Harvest work better on her to burst the enemy quicker?
Could you also try Crit with Flicker Blades for infinite Dash
its already tried and it was bad also no point since all dmg comes from her abilities and u don't wanna stand and auto attack u wanna short trade

Yaaaaas! I was waiting for this video!
Have you tried Irelia ap with malignence?
I think they could make her heal scale with her hp? Maybe that would help the bruiser build to be somewhat solid
I've been praying to see a cyclosword video on this since I saw how many dashes there were (and also extra range autos), but why did you not take fleet with it>>
the 75% charge speed upgrade affects ALL energize procs, including fleet; so it'd be like getting a second keystone... sadge
Finally Zwag plays a REAL skillshot champ!
Is a spellblade item gonna be good on her ? Try or Iceborn
did he build experimental hexplate when going bruiser build? gaining AS after ulting seems good to use her empowered attacks
She already gets AS from just using her abilities, Hexplate sounds like overkill, backline will be dead before Hexplate can shine
How many Dashes do you want?
Riot: Yes!!!
I would love to see a flicker blade on her with full dmg and lifesteal build and max shield second so it's permanentl, up and all dmg that you take you heal back during shield maybe eclipse or BT second?
Thanks for the great vid Zwag!
Me waiting for this video to sleep 😃😃😃
If Zwag had gotten a peel support this game, he definitely would've gotten a penta too lol
GUYS we can make sure zwag isn’t sad, don’t forget!
Parry sound design is just as satisfying as the heartsteel bonk
Yo this new champion is bussin 🔥

Seems ballanced and very fun to play against. Good job Rito... another great release.
Amumu played that first counter gank amazingly.
How are you finding games in the PBE, I have a 20 minute queue
so you got extreme mobility? what could complement that? maybe extra dmg? maybe extra shield?
zwag: i want to slow enemies and have extra movespeed...............................................
U could build serpent fang too,almost all of them have shields
so new champ is like a zed, sylas, aatrox hybrid? i see, i see
i wonder if one of the adc cooldown items would work with her, jakso might be good
theoretically if you build her like you build EZ would that work.
Lifesteal jungle build since her ult passive vamp scales heavily with lifesteal?
i think you want eclipse first, hubris second and then cyclosword third, then your next two items are profane hydra and bloodthirster (she scales crazy on raw ad and gets extra benefit from lifesteal) and then maybe you replace boots with edge of night since you dont rly need the move speed with all the dashes
Maybe an attack speed/ability haste build, to take advantage of the mid ability autos.
Full energize ambessa?
Try full lifesteal build. Her omnivamp scales with lifesteal.
I feel like a really good build on her could be : Triforce, shojin, deathdance, sundered and tita or sterak!
you should build attack speed shoes to help with the empowered auto resets
Why do you never dash with E2 ?
Was wondering when they would release this character from Arcane. The model looks very much like Shyvana.
now can we get a support that has life steal, dashes, immunity, attack speed and burn as a passive?
Amumu was an actual chad during the first few minutes
i think i guessed how the ult is programed it has to be like ORNN ult starting from the back and it teleports you to the "first" person the invisible ram hits
You overcooked imo, it is just the same as Xin's stab
Bro really overcooked, it's just Leona's E with a blink and K'Sante's R animation
You Should try a Jgl game as her, i think her dashes will be great for ganks plus that burst damage 👌
27:10 is officially my favorite moment
13:45
You CAN dash over walls.
At least in wild rift you can. With every single ability.
You just have to be right up against the wall to do it with q,w,e
Damn shes officially off role jungle with that extra monster dmg.
Glad to see that cause I wanted to play something else other than Teemo jungle.
With her built in armour pen, does that not mean axiom arc would have a huge refund?
You should do lifesteal Ambessa since the ult passive effect scales with lifesteal
You should try flickerblades on her
31:29 Aphelios actually just had to press Q again instead of panic walking and he would've won that
