Hello League of Legends players, I'm Grey Brother. With the arrival of version 12.5, the new version of the sword saint is also officially online, the main adjustment is the Q skill alpha raid, the base damage and critical hit bonus are weakened, and the cooldown return will also be reduced with the rapid improvement of the skill, as compensation, now each piece of damage can trigger the attack effect, such as broken, giant nine, wisdom last blade, etc., but also includes the E skill of the sword saint, the designer's purpose is to combat the armor-piercing stream, promote the special effect stream.
The dominance of the new version of the Sword Saint soared around the world
Judging from the data of the major servers, the strength of the new version of the sword saint is far more than the old version, the winning rate of the national service has risen to 52.3%, the strength of the wild area ranks 5th, although the winning rate of the Hanbok is only 49.2%, but the strength ranking of the wild area is 22 places higher than the previous version, and the global average data is more exaggerated, and the winning rate of more than 10,000 games is close to 54%! You should know that this is all platinum segments above the game, Sword Saint as a simple to start, and after the formation of the hero with strong carry ability, in the middle and high segments can have such an exaggerated winning rate, the strength is obviously a little over the standard.
At present, the players generally choose to play with piles of special effects, ruin, sheep knives, kraken killers, wisdom last blades, death dances are the highest appearance rate of several pieces, so the sword saint damage is very explosive, but the relative fault tolerance rate is relatively low, if the opposite will play a little to leave one or two controls, the difficulty of team battle to harvest is very large.
"Double repair stream" became the version of the answer
From the point of view of the outfit order, the priority of the Kraken Killer to the special effects stream sword saint is not very high, so there is a unique brother to create an armor-piercing special effect "double repair stream" gameplay, the core equipment is broken, sheep knife, curtain blade, wisdom end blade and dance of death, the order of the sheep knife and wisdom end blade can be changed according to the opposite lineup AP damage, so that you can enjoy the version dividend, but also have the stealth of the curtain blade, killing two birds with one stone.
Runes with cong blade, sudden impact, eyeball collector, greed hunter, joy and triumph, the reason for abandoning the deadly rhythm is that the special effects flow sword saint does not lack attack speed, the six gods can not install the attack speed shoes to open a big move attack speed of up to 2.22 is completely enough, and the cong blade with this set of double repair flow outfit can hit a ton of instantaneous explosion, you can see a double resistance of 100, health of 2000 points of dummy suffered cong blade sword saint three flat A plus a Q to drop more than 3100 blood, regiment battle seconds crisp skin faster, It is also easier to trigger the stealth of the curtain blade.
Seeing this, everyone may have to ask: "The curtain blade provides a large number of skills in a hurry, is not a negative benefit to the new version of the Sword Saint?" On the surface, it is true, but after the actual test, Gray Brother found that it is actually not too much, the first and middle two gameplay outfits are completely unaffected, the cooldown time of the double repair flow sword saint late Q skill is 10.32 seconds, each time the flat A returns 0.645 seconds, which is equivalent to cutting 16 knives to refresh (not counting the natural reduction), and the cooldown time of the pure special effects stream sword saint Q skill is 13.91 seconds, and it is also necessary to cut 14 knives to refresh, counting the natural reduction and the big move kill minus 70% CD, the two are actually not much difference, Pure special effects stream attack speed may brush slightly faster, but gray brother is still more inclined to the latter than the explosion and fault tolerance of the curtain blade.
Next, enter the damage comparison link that everyone is most concerned about, the three dimensions of the dummy are the same as before, the total damage of the pure special effect flow sword Saint Sanxiaping A is 1851, the total damage of QA is 968, and the total damage of the double cultivation flow sword Saint Sanxiaping A is about 90% lower than the former, but the QA damage is 400 higher, which can be summarized in one sentence: Siren Gui is in the endurance, and the curtain blade wins in the outbreak.
Designers are self-defeating
Interestingly, the designer's positioning of the sword saint is weakened, and now the winning rate does not drop but rises, and the curtain blade gameplay is still more fierce than before, which is tantamount to lifting a stone to drop his foot, and many players also joked: "The designer really miscalculated this time, and if there is no accident, the special effect income of the two versions of the sword saint Q skill will be cut." ”
Have the brothers tried the new version of Sword Saint? Which do you think is the strength of the pure special effects stream or the armor-piercing stream?
