Commentary (7.1e)
- "I want to go sudden impact. I want to go tyrant, hubris, or chain assault, and I want to go like eyeball collector, right? I'm playing a mage, I usually want to go sorcery." (01:04:39)
- "S Impact is usually the if you if you're going to take any of these three runes, people usually take silent impact, right? Then you have Chain Assault, Tyrant, and Hubris. So Told and Tyrant are kind of uh in this in this game with each other where they both kind of suck, but Chain Assault is usually a little better for most most champions. Let's say you're playing Zed, right? You proc Chain of If you can proc both Chain Assault and Tyrant, you prefer Chain Assault, right? Because Tyrant is it's harder to proc, right? So if you can proc Chain Assault, you gain you get Chain Assault. Very obvious. Um, if you can proc tyrant and chain assault, you're going chain assault. If you cannot proc chain and assault, then you can go tyrant. That's kind of how um this relationship works. Chain assault to kind of like give more context. Dealing a dam dealing damage to enemy champion with an active ability applies a mark to them." (01:08:12)
- "So, you have to think about the champions that go domination. I think it can be taken on Zed, but chain assault will be more consistent because think about it this way as well with most assassins, you're doing one burst. So your goal is to kill your first target, right?" (01:11:16)
- "So, what's important is just one-shotting that first person. So, chain assault and tyrant will give you more value from that. While hubris will probably feel good when you're already winning, right?" (01:11:50)
- "The champions that benefit from hubris like it's it's something that if you're already winning and you're going to win anyway, it will feel nice in reality. So, all these runes are kind of [ ] but I think chain assault is probably the better one of the three. I'm actually a pretty big hater of hubris. something like it can work in solo cube because you get like a [ ] ton of kills." (01:12:59)
