Drongo build for Adc (Crit) | PREDECESSOR | Page 1

Okay! Updated

Crest: Pacifier or Liberator.

Lightning Hawk -> Viper -> Sky Splitter -> Demolisher -> Imperator or Terminus or Vanquisher

Imperator does more raw dmg

Vanquisher has the same ttk as Imperator at a cheaper cost

Terminus is only good with the Omni pot but you sacrifice 2 seconds on your ttk.

I always level up Rad rounds first to out trade the enemy adc.

Any feedback is appreciated ❤️

surely ashbringer over demolisher?

paper compass Dec 9, 2022, 11:04 PM

#

you should always go for 100% crit with drongo because his passive

cloud star Dec 10, 2022, 12:32 AM

#

100% crit with your crest

cloud star Dec 10, 2022, 1:15 AM

#

Ashbringer is a horse a piece, if you like the higher attack speed sure, but demo just gets the job done faster, literally adds an extra 250-400 dmg with that proc, and it refreshes on takedown.

#

why mutilator tho

rich spear Dec 12, 2022, 12:07 AM

#

why not terminus

cloud star Dec 13, 2022, 7:24 PM

#

Terminus is solid as well! I would lose the 1v1 if someone built that vs me fourth, same with ashbringer. I build mutilator for the added tank bust on your basics and abilities, the nice boost to life steal and a small heal added to your abilities..... which if you get the power pot it goes to 18% omni and you can oh crap heal with your ult a little bit. the last passive on mutilator can get you 200-800 health added in team fights for free. Overall sustain more tank bust is solid for teamfights. drongo with 2.8k health is lol especially vs rampage

Dude I used this build tonight and it’s insane. Had my highest kill game ever at 18 and won a 1v4 against a grux, sparrow, narbash, and howitzer right at the end of the game to win it. Absolutely absurd dps. Thanks man!!!

untold token Dec 30, 2022, 1:29 AM

#

just tried this build and it's hilarious especially end game. i was also able to 1v4 as well and legit felt invincible haha

What do you guys build to stop a Countess 1 shotting you end game for Drongo

timid nimbus What do you guys build to stop a Countess 1 shotting you end game for Drongo

Unfortunately due to count’s passive… she is hard to 1v1 with any char late game. Only thing I know how to do is grab liberator crest. Liberator her ult stun and side step the dmg. While autoing her face in. Def takes a second to get use to.

Used the build: 20/0/6. jg and I were popping off. ending in a 47 vs 8

timid nimbus Jan 2, 2023, 8:11 PM

#

For how much I like Drongo with auto atk bug is getting worse and worse. I can't even fight other ADC's anymore.

Use the silence at your feet and try to kill her or run before it expires 🙃

Salvation is good against assassins as well

Updated*

timid nimbus Jan 11, 2023, 3:50 AM

#

I like it, but I dont start Terminus

#

Skysplitter for sure imo

cloud star Jan 11, 2023, 3:51 AM

#

You don’t lose the 1v1 with sky ?

#

I’ll give it a shot again

timid nimbus Jan 11, 2023, 3:51 AM

#

I just like Sky first for the atk speed

#

for early laning phase

#

Term I like to build 2nd or 3rd but its a nice build for sure 🙂

#

I only go Liberator now, way to of a headache solo q as an ADC

cloud star Jan 11, 2023, 3:53 AM

#

Yeah, I guess my play style is one sided. Getting that terminus shield then poking, proceed to heal, rinse and repeat.

timid nimbus Jan 11, 2023, 3:53 AM

#

Ya

cloud star Jan 11, 2023, 3:54 AM

#

But uh with the new update on mallet holy moly you feel strong. With the tonic you have 40% crit lifesteal, if someone has req on you it’s 50%. Which is insane.

timid nimbus Jan 11, 2023, 3:54 AM

#

yes i need to try that good call

cloud star Jan 11, 2023, 3:54 AM

#

The movement speed is bloated

timid nimbus Jan 11, 2023, 3:55 AM

#

Dust Devil is also really good with the update on it a bit

cloud star Jan 11, 2023, 3:55 AM

#

Okay I’ll try that when I get to late game

#

❤️

cloud star Jan 14, 2023, 9:21 PM

#

Yeah, so if tanks are pissing you off, sky splitter, ashbringer, imperator feels amazing.

cloud star Jan 29, 2023, 8:24 AM

#

I haven’t been getting to late game with carry and due to some life problems I can’t game as much, can someone help test this build out 😅.
Sky splitter -> ashbringer -> imperator -> Terminus -> Raiment
🙏 I sincerely apologize if it throws your game but much appreciated on the feedback.

haughty willow Jan 30, 2023, 10:59 PM

#

raiment????

#

brother what

#

remove raiment, get storm breaker or lightning hawk before skysplitter

cloud star Jan 30, 2023, 11:39 PM

#

Brother I just wanted to try it as a last item slot. To see if it’s broken

#

And don’t go lightning hawk or storm breaker first with the tank meta going on.

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 2:46 PM

#

Try this build when facing a team with a lot of health regen i.e khai, countess, crunch, ADC with lifesteal etc

StormBreaker - 40 attack speed. Highest attk speed item early game, really good for his rad rounds. Crit.
Terminus - Extra crit and sustain. Plays into his passive and survivability. 50 phys damage stat which is the highest for dmg items.
Tainted Rounds - Anti heal rounds plus stacking magic damage with Storm breaker. Stacking attk speed with Stormbreaker
Demolisher - phys pen and burst dmg. I choose to stop building attack speed at this point and go into damage
Imperator - its just the strongest crit dmg item in game

Imperator and demolisher can be interchangable. If you need a different last item - do imperator 4th and finish with your last item

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 4:45 PM

#

IMO -> change stormbreaker for skysplitter, I shouldn’t have to explain that one. I used demolisher for a long time but not with Terminus.. those items just don’t sync well, it’s like have the strong auto and sacrifice the shield or vice versa, Ashbringer is 10x better with Terminus, having Hog rounds come back quicker is game changing. But yeah no matter what the build order you prefer, once the 4 items come online you feel unbeatable.

timid nimbus I just like Sky first for the atk speed

Thank you for suggesting skysplitter first I’ve been enjoying it

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 5:27 PM

#

cloud star IMO -> change stormbreaker for skysplitter, I shouldn’t have to explain that one...

The build im proposing is for going against teams with a lot of health regen. Stormbreaker is better imo because its got more attack speed and wave clear. If youre not rotating lanes then I guess you wouldn't need it and skysplitter might be better for your play style

timid nimbus Feb 7, 2023, 5:34 PM

#

Skysplitter right now is a must item imo, on all ADC's. Maybe besides Rev.. lol. The item is just too OP I think all the stats on it is bonkers.

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 5:43 PM

So what you wave clear let the other team freeze the wave while you obs leave and gank? Which will get called out in higher mmr. Or do you overextend each time to push the minions into tower? And at the point you have no time to gank.

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:22 PM

#

cloud star So what you wave clear let the other team freeze the wave while you obs leave an...

freezing is only a good tactic if your mid lane is winning or if you're trying to get the other duo to overextend for your jungler. You can't sit under tower all of early game. Plus mid and late game, you need good wave clear You wave clear to push T1 which sets up fangtooth or mid ganks by duo. There is more dynamic play than just sitting in lane last hitting

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:24 PM

#

What? Freezing the lane early is OP. If you don’t get those lvls you’re useless.

#

I’m talking about the other team not you

#

The other team freezing the lane on you

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:25 PM

#

sure, so an item like stormbreaker allows you to break those lane freezes faster with its passive and the 40 attack speed

#

just going to say this again. My build is for teams with multiple health regen heros

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:26 PM

#

You have to overextend lol which gets predicted

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:26 PM

#

not if you look at the mini map....and get call outs from your team...

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:26 PM

#

Then they freeze and you’re just chilling

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:27 PM

#

overextending means youve extended past where you should be. If jungler is in offlane, are you over extending by pushing up?

#

if they freeze stormbreaker breaks thorugh the wave?

#

im confused, why are you failing to grasp this

#

with skysplitter, you can only hit one minion at a time, with less attach speed

#

which equals less wave clear, which is longer time to push a wave if the enemy duo is freezing

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:28 PM

#

There is mad counter play to what you’re talking about. Jungle shows his presence, clears your wards then they get a free freeze. You either go up and try to break it and hope the jungle left or he sits there and punishes you

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:28 PM

#

bro, just saying I don't have to hope if I am warding their upper jungle and also if I am getting call outs and checking mini map for jungler

#

like there are so many ways to ensure that when you extend out, its safe

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:29 PM

#

Sentry clears your wards, we can’t buy any rn

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:29 PM

#

sure, but after 120 second, you get another ward

#

so you push back and wait for a new ward

#

plus support has 3 wards

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:29 PM

#

Someone that knows how to freeze you won’t see minions on your side of the map for 3 mins

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:30 PM

#

sentry sweeps also alert you of jungler presence

#

I will never let the enemy team freeze my lane for 3 mins. That is ludacris

#

again, strombreaker helps me to ensure that I have a faster wave clear tempo when I need it vs skysplitter

#

plus the 40 attack speed gives me more stacks on rad rounds. Plus it synergizes with Tainted rounds (3rd item). Again my build is for enemy teams with high health regen...

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:32 PM

#

Okay 👍🏻 I’m getting a headache 🤕 lol. I get your logic but until you can buy wards, there is too much counter play and you’ll get punished and just throw the lane.

#

You won’t have desolate passive and high regen builds all build mad armor.

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:33 PM

#

demolisher has the desolate passive

#

plus you get the 35% first shot bonus

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:33 PM

#

That is too late in the game. IMO

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:33 PM

#

it's not if you're last shotting and getting objectives

#

one could argue getting tainted 4th is too late in the game for a countess mid/late game. Just saying. The build is to help shutdown countess, khai, rampage, and the ADC if they have a narbash or something

#

early to mid game

#

I just tried skysplitter first and won. It's really strong. Just saying stormbreaker is also good. It's a playstyle thing for sure

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:36 PM

#

I don’t have a problem with any of those chars. At all early game. My last 10 drongo games are mad stomps. Idk if you even tried sky/Ashbringer but the cooldown alone is insane.

#

With desolate

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:37 PM

#

I just did, it was good. I built it Skysplitter, ashbringer, terminus, tainted, imperitor

#

it was good

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:38 PM

#

I can’t even get to late game anymore, I get 4 items get a Quadra then the game is over. I really wanted to try Raiment last it was prob broken like it was on countess

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:38 PM

#

are you solo queing?

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:38 PM

#

Yea

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:38 PM

#

same

#

rainment on an adc?

#

I can see that

#

it wont work anymore though

zealous geode Feb 7, 2023, 6:39 PM

#

Just tested it, I like the build 👍
Bunch of crit and lifesteal, works in offlane too

cloud star Feb 7, 2023, 6:39 PM

#

Yeah

gilded night Feb 7, 2023, 6:40 PM

#

^^^

#

okay, time to go play

timber furnace Feb 15, 2023, 7:07 AM

Most fun i've had as carry in awhile... possibly just the team being funny and positive but thanks for sharing! Drongo is super strong.
