I was hoping to get some help in picking ld5s for the swc scroll that are specifically good for RTA. Even more specifically I was hoping for some ideas for turn 2 RTA lds because I enjoy that more than just trying to outspeed your opponent. I know some of the good rta units but I’m not able to perfectly pinpoint if they are good for turn 1 or turn 2 teams. So I’m just looking for like a list of good RTA lds and whether they are good for turn 1 or turn 2 comps. Thanks!

it has some rta recommendations as well

Like I said I know the general units that are good in rta and but for example Giana from what I understand is more of a turn 1 unit so that doesn’t fit my playstyle. While it would be cool to get one, I wouldn’t be as excited as like a ragdoll which is more of a turn 2 unit. That’s why im looking to get some advice from veteran RTA players because I don’t want to blindly pick a bunch of turn 1 units

if you only care about rta and only plan to play turn 2, I can give a recommendation

naive minnow
#

Yes please

#

tho one disclaimer: bp notes are coming this weekend so ld5s might get buffed/nerfed

#

dark: ragdoll zenisek giana
light: tian lang akroma seimei/julianne?

#

tho imo neph and lora are the best 2 ld5s in the game as they're top tier in all content, I'd personally recommend those to everyone but they don't fit what you want exactly

proper adder
#

@fallow girder i'd say no matter what you play berghild should be on the light list ngl

#

unit is broken t1/t2

fallow girder
#

yea she's an option too, good outside rta too

proper adder
#

you play with leo slow stuff? cool, berg does her stuff. you play t1? cool, berg does her stuff.

#

having one of the highest bases and one of the most broken passives in the game just helps

#

and about giana, she is not only for t1, if you play t2 a lot of people pick heavy antibruiser units like tesa shizuka etc. and giana counters them

proper adder
#

tl berg lora/giana

#

errr julianne*

fallow girder
#

julianne doesn't do too well if you go heavy t2 because he's weak to pushbacks, raki, oblivion but is a good option nonetheless vs some drafts

proper adder
#

wait nah we're leaving out kovarci

naive minnow
#

Ok great ideas, what about a douman. Saw some videos and looks really fun

fallow girder
#

douman like giana lets you beat ppl who play antibruiser stuff

proper adder
#

douman is like the queen of counterpicks

fallow girder
#

in a bruiser vs bruiser matchup

naive minnow
#

Hmm ok.

proper adder
#

she's a really gross counterpick if they try to play slow

fallow girder
#

but tbh without ragdoll or akroma going full t2 isn't really viable imo

proper adder
#

still would not pick her over neph rag giana etc

#

if you're committing to full t2 and only care about rta you can also consider eleanor, but she's not better than the ones previously listed

#

Can u guys tell me about tian lang? He doesn’t seem to exciting to me, idk

proper adder
#

there's not much to tell

fallow girder
#

tbh for a bruiser player I dont find him too important

naive minnow
#

It seems like he’s only used as a counterpick

fallow girder
#

it's fine if someone goes heavy atb manip but imo he works better with midrange drafts

#

he's never bad to own tho in case people slam down giou or verde

naive minnow
#

True

proper adder
#

or berghild frfr

naive minnow
#

Akroma is interesting. Is it actually used often? Haven’t seen or heard much about it

fallow girder
#

you need something to not get overran by t1 stuff

proper adder
#

you have to play around her specifically and draft full turn 2. not even bruiser vs bruiser, like, just full turn 2

naive minnow
#

Ok thanks for the advice guys. Appreciate it

fallow girder
#

akroma can't get cc'd so she can silence someone so you give your team breathing time to move

#

and rag lets you move directly

naive minnow
#

Awesome

proper adder
#

the thing about rag is that he punishes nearly every style of draft just by existing lol
