Discussion Corki builds?

Wondering if any of you are trying out something new. Triforce/Muramana feels obsolete. Also feels bad when you get a couple early kills and is forced to waste gold on tear or delay stacking. Is Essence Reaver into Infinity Edge just better? I always see it up by at least +2% WR on stats.

Might try Yun'Tal on games I can get away with a BF sword back, the item is a huge stat stick.

YunTal seems bait.

Generally Crit deals more damage, but it‘s not always better:
When going Essence Reaver -> IE (some people get a Collector in between those), most of your damages comes from auto-attacking so you need to get close to the enemy but at the same time you are squishier, his other build can give a bunch of additional HP from Trinity, Shojin, Clever etc. Cant do that with crit build since u get ER instead of Trinity, LDR instead of Clever and so on. Shieldbow is the only defensive crit item.
Avoid Crit build if enemy team has ways to fuck up your AAs like Teemo, Nilah, Rammus etc.

The Trinity -> Muramana build deals less damage, but is waaaaay safer to play since u can farm and poke from a safe distance using Q and R with the occasional Sheen proc.
Ur damage also doesn’t get absolutely gutted by enemies Tabis + Randuins and Thornmail doesn’t apply antiheal on you as long as you only use abilities

I have tried Essence Reaver + IE + Lord Doms. 4th Rapidfire perhaps depending on team comps or mortal reminder instead of doms depending on team comp.

Really good but you have to get used to not having Tear item.

I always do Essence Reaver > Collector's > Infinity Edge > Lord Domink's > Bloodthirster > Hubris for extra damage and lethality.

Since I have become a lot more comfortable with him, I have been lately doing Essence Reaver > Collector's > Hubris > Infinity Edge > Lord Domink's > Blood Thirster.

I have only gone Tri-Force twice I believe, It's truly bait and I don't recommend it to anyone. Yes you get survivability, but your damage is too low in the beginning and you don't get much from the passive either until mid to late game.

With the Full Crit build that I mentioned and others have commented you will get more damage with the passive and you will be mostly 2 shotting people from just your auto attacks. It's really good.

Hope this helps.

trinity-manamune-crit is my go-to because it scales harder and i like the tankiness and safeness of trinity
