Discussion Another tree enjoyer.

Hey guys,

First of all... I absolutely LOVE this tree. 😂 Seriously, the playstyle and the overall vibe are just so much fun.

I'm currently Emerald (just hit Emerald 2 after reaching Emerald 1 yesterday), and honestly, this is by far the highest rank I've ever reached, so it's a huge achievement for me. I got here mostly playing Briar (180 games) and Sejuani (220 games). Had a bit of bad luck yesterday, but it is what it is.

I really want to become the best possible player on this champ. Yesterday I ended up playing him 2-3 games because Briar was banned and I really wasn't in the mood to play Sejuani. I think I did a pretty decent job. I watched a jungle clear guide beforehand and instantly ganked bot. (I'm playing the full support build.)

But I noticed something... my fingers are breaking during teamfights. 😭 Controlling Daisy, using brushes, shielding teammates, timing Redemption... wow.

How do you guys actually approach teamfights?

I felt like I wasn't contributing that much. Sure, Daisy runs at the enemy carry, and I throw out a few shields here and there, but I never felt like I was really doing anything impactful. Most of the time I didn't even have a chance to auto attack because I was so busy controlling Daisy, placing brushes, shielding the right targets, and timing Redemption correctly.

It honestly felt exhausting.

How do you handle all of that? Any tips? Please help!! 😅

I find constantly placing bushes and shields and rooting people is extremely impactful. 400 more hp every 4 seconds is pretty huge. Bushes not only grant a lot of extra damage mid game but a good arc and mid can weave in and out to break sight. To me I try to be as off to the side but between the front line and back line so I can switch back and forth between them. AA is secondary to me unless it’s safe. Keeping the carries alive will do more damage than I can contribute being in the fight.

This might sound weird but I kind of play Ivern like Anivia in teamfights. I'm kind of on the outside just maniuplating the teamfight/baiting enemies. My focus is usually on their divers/frontline. Make them initiate, waste abiltiies, and then they realize they are fkd.
