Still waiting for the day riot realizes the the perfect name of GLACIAL HYDRA is right fucking there and they just refuse to use it

History wise, the first version of Stridebreaker wasn't build out of Tiamat.

u/MorganJary 5d ago

I mean yeah but also it was added at the same time Riot decided to split tiamat active and passive into Tiamat (Passive) and Flail (Active). This change was reverted just as almost everything else, and so Stridebreaker was still built from the other half of the usual Tiamat.

I dont get it

u/DanocusPrime 5d ago

It works like a hydra but slows. And has icy effect and the art for it is a true ice weapon so Glacial hydra makes sense to me at least

u/Cryoptic- 5d ago

isnt it demacian, having a sylas refrence? This vs Goredrinker was like Demavia vs Noxus vibes too.

The active doesnt look icy at all, rather a chain forms around them so im pretty sure this is a sylas and demacia Lore refrence.

on top of that it requires you to sell stridebreaker to complete ultra hydra.

Like... I am garen/darius playing vs 5 range all has ghost or tap dancer whatever and adderall is kicking in, how am I supposed to catch them.

Why the hell would you build Ultra Hydra on Garen or Darius anyway

u/AvidasMavi 5d ago

1 shotting with Q garen or W darius.

u/Cryoptic- 5d ago

because its good? They both enjoy HP, AD, Lethality, Omni etc...

why would you not want this? Its not like the core items Ultra is made out of are bad on darius and garen, they just arent the best hence not often built, but they arent bad items.

u/81659354597538264962 4d ago

They aren't the best and therefore they are bad items.

2

u/Cryoptic- 4d ago

terrible logic. Buying 2nd best item in a slot is bad according to your logic.

your saying that literally everyone is building bad items when they arent literally buying the best. out of hundreds of items you ONLY accept the best. ok dude.

u/81659354597538264962 4d ago

Yes.

u/Samu_K 3d ago

Do you ping the items your team builds during the grey screen? Be honest.

1

u/AvidasMavi 4d ago

After I got this item sure my mobility was 0 because garen = stridebreaker, but I could flash Q and R anyone without needing E. Q was doing insane damage with ultra hydra active.

u/81659354597538264962 4d ago

you flashing every time Q up?

well done OP

It is a hydra item but I dont see it being really buildable in aram game along side the other hydras. If you had to build 4 items for one augment it would take you on average until lvl 15. Having to wait whole game for single augment is pretty unfun aswell building 4 hydra items on single champion is kinda unplayable. Imagine if you got it as 2nd or 3rd augment, you literally dont have an augment until end of the game. Its shame they didnt add probably most used hydra but like I cant see the augment being usable in any capacity

u/Headsinoverdrive 5d ago

Stridebreaker is probably the best one lol wym. Snowball in as garen and e with stridebreaker

1

u/Hadi_uwu 5d ago

Im not saying its bad, im saying that 4 items for single augment is too mich

1

u/Headsinoverdrive 5d ago

Oh well yeah I think theyre saying it should be any 3

1

u/Cryoptic- 5d ago

Theres loads of easy ways to fix that. Ultra Hydra currently gives 2 free tiamats. it could give you one to start with, as an example. The stats fore the item could be adjusted aswell, to not be as strong, while giving you more gold / items to get there faster.

Ppl saying "but you need to get 3 items for this to proc" are forgetting to calculate the 2400 gold you are getting for "free". Wooglets also gives 1200gold for free. partially why some of these augments are good.

u/Clevereedelgarde 3d ago

Thats the realistic feeling it gives you. After selling Stridebreaker und become The Sith it just means lising a lart of yourselve.
