Excellent breakdown for my favorite hero. Explaining when and why you go "off build" was very insightful, especially for those of us that don't get a lot of time playing the game ourselves to figure this stuff out on our own.

Lady Geist has a lot of utility. Her base kit maxed out 1 full clears a wave. Other heroes need tesla bullets/ricochet to match her wave clear. Probably the best at procing healbane, mystic slow, and mystic reverb with the 1 and 3. Base defense is really good. Geist if played well is very helpful to your team.

I'm a viscous main and I'll mention something you talked about so people know. Viscous cube removes debuffs (like malice, bebop bomb, warden's jail,etc) only on activation. So if the person is in the cube, new debuffs can be added to them while they're in it. Edit: soul rebirth and rejuvenator are both shown on the ui

idk if pushing wave into their turret is the optimal buy position, especially if you're good at denying that's forgoing up to a 300+ soul delta for missing your own creeps (and some harass while they try to fight the wave) probly best to buy when the wave is just outside your own turret/shop (or whenever you have 500 souls in the bank for a power spike)

I guess my question would be when do you buy then if you're winning the lane hard and not getting pushed into your guardian? I agree if you get pushed back it's definitely best to buy under your guardian. I think if you're hard winning the lane you definitely want to buy and not let them get the item advantage over you. I think the best time in that scenario is when you've farmed the wave, and your minions are pushed into their turret

Really liking these videos, Eskie, especially the ones on Geist! I really like her farming and late game potential. Correct me if im wrong, but I feel like you play fights a little bit too safe. Sure, it is nice to stack Malice and then get those big bombs off. But at the same time you have an ultimate that can save you in a pinch, so wouldn't it be alright to take some of the damage for your team and help out? Just an idea I had, ggs!

the issue is if you’re playing up to take damage the enemy team obviously knows your plan and can just play around your ult, for example they can buy silence items and you become useless which is bad especially if you’re fed that game like he was. imo it’s more consistent to sit back a bit and stack malice and bombs which can give your team openings bc of the big poke and slow and then go in if you see an opportunity, with the ult being for 1v1s or if you get caught
@lukkkasz323
5 күн бұрын
I think she's better when played like that. Her ultimate isn't good outside of 1v1s and it's much better to play from a safe range, most other heroes that play like this like Vindicta or Talon, can be easily killed by an enemy assassin, but Geist is a hero you don't just fight 1v1. In close range with a lot of enemies around I think she's too easy to play around.

Stagger death timers means that you die when other teammates are already dead. Let's say your teammate is sitting on a 20 second death timer. You die and now you're sitting on a 50 second death timer. That's staggering death timers because there's a 30 second separation when the full team will be alive. I like Spiritual Overflow because I believe it's more DPS overall than Frenzy

Geist is my main. All you have to do if just have perfect aim and you win by default cuz they run off to buy and you hit them with 1 while they're buying to keep pressure, or they try to trade you just press 2, and they lose the trade, or they try to run at low health and you pop them with a long range 3.

I'd buy items like Restorative Shot and Extra Regen first if you are struggling to stay healthy. I'd also suggest staying near your minion wave and focusing only on last hitting even meleeing if possible to prevent the deny. Minions do a lot of damage early on and if you fight the enemy inside your minion wave you'll have a large advantage

I was having a great time using the build you released on september 8th. I don't know if it's just me but in the past few days I'm having a hard time, the lack of CC, the fact that people learned how to deal with her ult, etc. Every popular match I watch in-game I see Lady Geist being way less impactful than it was a few weeks ago. She gets focused and she is dead. I'm honestly thinking about building her in a different way, focusing on slow and firerate debuffs (so you don't get melted in 5 seconds in teamfights)
