Wardens Mail is kinda booty cheeks lategame since they removed the health scaling part of the component. I only really see it being valuable early game against Kog on tank supports who’ll still eventually upgrade it into a Frozen Heart 2nd or 3rd item for the supportive debuff. Now the item that _really_ counters Kog’Maw the most is Serrated Dirk.
I just thought of this. Since the old Rock Solid passive would be too strong on Frozen Heart and Randuin's right now, maybe Riot can make a new item that focuses on the Rock Solid passive.
I never truly worried too much about itemizing against Kog'Maw since he's easy to lock down. I would have chosen Distortion World music for Void champions, though... Still, amazing job! This is a perfect format to learn about these interactions.
Akshually ☝🤓Plated Steelcaps do NOT reduce damage from on-hit effects, only from the attack damage portion of an attack, therefore their damage reduction is effectively non-existant against Kog-maw. If an attack deals 100 damage + 250 from the BoTRK on-hit, the armor reduces both parts but the passive reduces only the 100 to 88.
While it does not reduce the On-Hit attack it does also lower his physical damage from his AA that he deals and also does reduce the damage bonus off Bork slightly. Still something to put out, MR boots is an option but he has no form of CC so it's just +20MR your paying with 1300g.
@@NepNeppy sometimes the best boots are something like swifties, cheaper and better at kyting or getting out of his E slow, also it's crazy how you should sit on warden mails because FH or Randu loses it's passive
Joking aside tho, Boots of Swiftness are extremely valuable into her since she has slowing on multiple of her abilities and often buys Rylai’s Crystal Scepter. Force of Nature can stack really quickly against her because she has many frequent ticks of magic damage that individually don’t do that much, as opposed to someone like Syndra who only really hits you with a few magic damage attacks that individually deal quite a lot. Magic resist in general is quite valuable against her since she has zero %pen in her kit. While health can be valuable as well since she has no %health damage, she commonly buys Liandry’s which deals %max health magic dmg. Early sustain in lane also counters her since she has very poor mana problems if she uses her E for anything other than last hits.
@kreeperkiller4423 there are no midlaners who build rfc, only tf for gold card, stacking magic resist against her is always good, picking ad Champs into her sucks because she has decent armour but low magic resist. Syndra, xerath, vel koz, hwei, taliyah and many other mages shit on her. Cassiopeia is not really blind pickable she is match-up reliant. I really enjoy playing her but very rare for me to go "ya we need Cassiopeia".
main kog here. let me tell you, you only need 1 MR item and the rest should based on others enemies. kogmaw is so vulnerable and his damge output is not that impressive even in late game so don't worry too much abt him. As long as he without Lulu, he is useless
Kog'maw is immobile, any slows and hard cc are effective on him. If his support is not nearby he is easy pickings! But beware, a fed Kog'maw can stand still and take you down 😅
Yes, very late, but always remember that both of the upgrades for Warden's Mail LOSE Rock Solid, which means you should only ever upgrade it if you are ok with losing Rock Solid. Otherwise, just sit on Warden's Mail for most of the game and build other items. This is an unintuitive situation because Riot sucks at making item, but upgrading Warden's Mail can sometimes actually be a power NEGATIVE. Very crazy, but true at times.
Yeaaa… You can’t really counter Kog by building correctly. You counter him by playing correctly. He is one of those champs that shows the fattest middlefinger to any defensive items and just melts through them like butter.
Unless your sitting at 999 armor/MR and reflecting 100-200 damage per auto you receive then sure. Also Kog is and does not benefit off healing/Lifesteal unless their team heavily uses those then otherwise just get oblivion orb or anti-heal.
It is a tragedy that Warden's Mail is more optimal vs Kog'Maw than Frozen Heart or Randuin's

The second tip also work against warwick, his kit has literally 0 physical damage

lol I comented in the wrong place mb
i love this channel quick and straight to the point

Cassiopeia counter guide would be nice, her poke and dps are both really strong
She can't deal with range, just pick mage against her
Her range is not very good. Dodge Q and she lose a lot of dmgs because you're not poisoned
if range is her only counter then it sounds like the only item that would help is Rapid Fire Cannon lol

Can you make a guide on how to counter trundle?
here’s how to counter lourlo
main kog here. let me tell you, you only need 1 MR item and the rest should based on others enemies. kogmaw is so vulnerable and his damge output is not that impressive even in late game so don't worry too much abt him. As long as he without Lulu, he is useless
Can you tell me how to counter Kassadin!!
I dont know what to build against varus,he do ton Ap and AD.i need Help.
The character that when building AD deals most ap damage
Kog'maw is immobile, any slows and hard cc are effective on him. If his support is not nearby he is easy pickings! But beware, a fed Kog'maw can stand still and take you down 😅
And then we have wild and rare full AP Kog.
make frozen heart from warden later as one of last items?

Thia guy won't do videos on countering Briar, Hecarim and Graves until I die.
Better strat : pick Kled and run him down
Why can’t Riot just make Warden’s passive available on Legendary items too…? It makes no sense that upgrading it loses the valuable passive
The same as to why they removed Spectre's Cowl healing passive when Spirit Visage is built and removes it.
Yeaaa…

What about thornmail?
Bad idea. Worthless armor
If you're playing a tank then sure go for it for the dmg ig since no matter what you build he will still melt you
Unless your sitting at 999 armor/MR and reflecting 100-200 damage per auto you receive then sure. Also Kog is and does not benefit off healing/Lifesteal unless their team heavily uses those then otherwise just get oblivion orb or anti-heal.
Kog can also build AP.
how to say in 1 minute something you can say in 10 seconds
I could say "build that & that" but it's important to explain why as well
bro complaining about a 1 minute video being long 😭
dammnn... watching 1 min video is hard af
it's quite simple! just make Adaptive Helm!
..........oh wait....
His w is doing % max hp, botrk is bad and you can go navori for perma w uptime to make you vayne
Thumbs down for ai generated garbage
