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.
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
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.
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
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 ^^
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.
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.
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 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
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
Watching people not turn and fight Ambessa after she uses two of her abilities just to get in range is mindboggling. Like, literally, first few minutes, Zwag used Q1 and E1 to close range with Yone, and he just walked away and let E2 and Q2 hit him. Like... fight. She's used half her kit not dealing damage. wtf. You watch that instinct turn once you're 3 kills ahead of Yone, which is the wrong time to try to fight someone, and Yone still almost wins the 1v1. If you're 13-2 at 20 minutes, or even on your way to it, you're going to explode everyone, including a fed Kai'sa. It's not really a good comparison. That would be true if you were 13-2 on Yone or Zed or Riven or a million other high burst champs. There will be people who are sick nasty with her, just like Rivens. But it's hardly the unstoppable death machine the yt vids are making her out to be.
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
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?
@@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.
Pretty crazy how easily tilted that Aphelios was ragin after 1 death and got bad enough you had to mute him; I feel the game was hinting on what he needed to do with that final K/D being 4/20 😂
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
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 think maybe tank wouldnt be too bad. This champ seems to do a ton of damage regardless of what you build. Staying in the fight a bit longer seems like it might give you the edge. In all honestly though she's probably going to be strongest in mid lane.
Change her W scaling to Health and that's it. Your W shield is quite big even at low level but if you give a bruiser ALL AD scalings then don't be surprised when people start playing her full AD Lethality
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.
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! 👍

I really think a sheen item would be great on her since you want to weave in autos for your energy sustain.
Could you play her as a Jungler as well pls🥺 Im a jgl main and want 2 know if its viable
Try it👨🏾🔬
She def is viable in the jungle, just watched a video about it from a jg main called Ubaman (he's a spanish speaker, mind you)
Lifesteal Ambessa works well too. She has omnivamp passive scaling with lifesteal on ult upgrade
"Mobility creep", they say.
This should provide some good new content for Riven and Renekton mains.
Riot shouldn't be afraid of work.

How many Dashes do you want?
Riot: Yes!!!
Hope you try her in jungle. Seems like she could perform well with her good gap closing and aoe for clear
I was a 20 kill lethality aatrox and a 2 levels behind feeding aphelios out damaged and out healed me
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...............................................
The moment i saw her abilities i knew building assassin would go insane
I think they could make her heal scale with her hp? Maybe that would help the bruiser build to be somewhat solid
Idk why but Zwag saying “who has 20 dashes? THIS THING!” was so funny to me.
if you can try a attack speed and lifesteal build on her, i want to see how it performs
The new blender champ is pretty sick
YOu talking about low attack speed made me think of triforce and how the sheen protc would tack with your other damage.
Parry sound design is just as satisfying as the heartsteel bonk
Amumu played that first counter gank amazingly.
i keep hearing this song at 23:00 im pretty sure its called thundering chariot from star rail
certified zwag classic
Have you tried Irelia ap with malignence?
Would Dark Harvest work better on her to burst the enemy quicker?
Finally Zwag plays a REAL skillshot champ!
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 feel like a really good build on her could be : Triforce, shojin, deathdance, sundered and tita or sterak!
hey man! how about a shaco that has navori and is using hail of blades. can unlimited dashes work?
Thanks for the great vid Zwag!
U could build serpent fang too,almost all of them have shields
Maybe an attack speed/ability haste build, to take advantage of the mid ability autos.
Zwag comments all game how the 9/0 kaisa is fed and will melt him in 2 shots.
Also Zwag: 24:37
Seems ballanced and very fun to play against. Good job Rito... another great release.
Is a spellblade item gonna be good on her ? Try or Iceborn

Me waiting for this video to sleep 😃😃😃
you should build attack speed shoes to help with the empowered auto resets
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
31:29 Aphelios actually just had to press Q again instead of panic walking and he would've won that
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?
GUYS we can make sure zwag isn’t sad, don’t forget!
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.
Can you try lethality with 2 lifesteal or spellvamp items in the jng cause I wanna see the 0 to hero moments
Yaaaaas! I was waiting for this video!
I love this trend of champs that are inescapable and insta kill you while also being unkillable themselves

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.
Try full lifesteal build. Her omnivamp scales with lifesteal.
Was wondering when they would release this character from Arcane. The model looks very much like Shyvana.
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

You should do lifesteal Ambessa since the ult passive effect scales with lifesteal
Yo this new champion is bussin 🔥
that ult engage is going to very hard to prevent.
Her ult hitbox is much greater than the indicator 13:36
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
Pretty crazy how easily tilted that Aphelios was ragin after 1 death and got bad enough you had to mute him; I feel the game was hinting on what he needed to do with that final K/D being 4/20 😂

Ambessa's passive doesn't work with cyclosword, only her ult does
I really wonder what an Ambessa v Riven would be like
Garen be like " i run, i bonk, i spin, i mega bonk u, u die" why u gotta make everything so complicated riot😂😂
If I’m looking at this properly, her healing scales with lifesteal.
Full lifesteal Ambessa build please?!
I think maybe tank wouldnt be too bad. This champ seems to do a ton of damage regardless of what you build. Staying in the fight a bit longer seems like it might give you the edge.
In all honestly though she's probably going to be strongest in mid lane.
Ambessa and nocturne would completely control a game.
For some reason, everytime I see Ambessa walk, all I see is Shyv walk animation
2:20 I’ve already seen enough
How are you finding games in the PBE, I have a 20 minute queue
I can already see killerskins making a kratos skin for her
Zwag sadly lost two cannons
10:34 wtf was that stun, it was almost like 3 seconds xD
Navori could still be good for the build so that there can be more dash
if sylas and renekton had a child
Change her W scaling to Health and that's it. Your W shield is quite big even at low level but if you give a bruiser ALL AD scalings then don't be surprised when people start playing her full AD Lethality
