Title: Patch 138: Hecarim Post by: K9 on April 12, 2012, 04:59:34 AM Hecarim overview (http://euw.leagueoflegends.com/news/hecarim-shadow-war-revealed)
Some video of Hecarim in bot games (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM1gPpzMB44&feature=g-u-u&context=G206b680FUAAAAAAAHAA) Title: Re: Patch 137: Hecarim Post by: HaemishM on April 12, 2012, 08:50:04 AM Ok, he sounds kind of fun, especially the stampede of spectral horses in his ult.
Title: Re: Patch 137: Hecarim Post by: statisticalfool on April 12, 2012, 09:44:48 AM Patch 138 (lulu was 137).
Delayed till next week due to bugs on the PBE. bruiser with aoe/sustain/gap closer/gap closer & cc, huzzah! Doesn't really seem that interesting to me, other than I guess, seeing how it works out with his MS to AD conversion (although I'm guessing all this means is that you build TF, and maybe a PD). Varus looks more interesting to me: I really like the combo nature of his abilities, and his sniper shot is a new mechanic.

Title: Re: Patch 137: Hecarim Post by: statisticalfool on April 12, 2012, 10:24:06 AM Doubt it: at max level, he'll get +20 MS, +5 AD off Boots of Swiftness.
Compared to +25% AS off zerkers. Title: Re: Patch 137: Hecarim Post by: K9 on April 12, 2012, 10:35:36 AM Patch 138 (lulu was 137). Fixed. I'm not entirely clear on how MS mechanics work, are there diminishing returns on stacking a lot of MS? Title: Re: Patch 138: Hecarim Post by: Mosesandstick on April 12, 2012, 10:49:50 AM Yup. From the lol wiki:
Quote The raw speed between 415 and 490 gets multiplied by 80%. The raw speed over 490 gets multiplied by 50%. Getting above 490 is pretty hard though. Title: Re: Patch 138: Hecarim Post by: statisticalfool on April 12, 2012, 11:10:30 AM Yeah, although I don't think there's been a test on whether it keys off bonus MS in total, or scaled MS.
I could see a glass cannon build of PD, BT, IE, and maybe Phage/Frozen Mallet.. But, he will get totally wrecked by well placed snares and slows. Since his only true gap close is his ult, his other is a MS steroid. Champs with kickouts (Janna, Trist) will also ruin his day. Title: Re: Patch 138: Hecarim Post by: Mosesandstick on April 12, 2012, 11:14:37 AM I'd also guess that you're nearly always going to buy Merc Treads on this guy considering his dash is his ultimate.

This. From doing no real threorycrafting, I'd probably look at building Boots 3, Zeal Zeal , Ghostblade, Cloak and Dagger With eventual upgrades to PD and maybe an IE. |
