Note: Squishy, but DO NOT underestimate his damage. I have gotten many a double kill and triples b ecuase i fought within a wave, droppd a chakram turret, dps a few autos into a swap to a Severum Q, and then back into charams. only to have that gank be t urned around and now i'm sitting 3 kills up and a wave or two lead.
Love the format of the video. Would love to see more of this. One of the best videos I've seen convering him. In-depth and straight to the point. 11/10 nice!
That is more of an advanced mechanic that requires some setup and prediction on what his most important guns will be in the next fight while purposely draining the ammo. At least on my part it's not this strat isn't known but it didn't have a place in this particular style of guide. It is pretty useful though.
For those wondering, the best off-hand weapons for severum are probably infernum and crecendum, amazing waveclear and healing combos with infernum, and really, REALLY good 1v1 with crecendum
This is an excellent video. Not only did you cover the abilities but the concise summary at the end really nailed the information in my head for me. Great job! Btw, still extremely helpful even in 2021.
This was incredibly well done!!! One of the best guides that I've seen for my chemical romance, I mean ehm Aphelios out there hands down. The synergy and role of each weapon and the leveling of stats in particular are super helpful. Please do not stop making such detailed guides for any newly released and/or reworked/updates champions from now on. Well done to all of you guys in Mobalytics and thank you a mill 🤗❤ P.S. on a side note, can you please fix the mobalytics tool on your website? It fails to refresh to show any GPI update as well as last games played and sometimes doesn't even load the pre- and/or post- game interface. Would appreciate it a ton!! 😊🤗😊
I love that you give me great excuses for flaming my team when I die but I would also like for you to throw some shade at us, the players some more. Thanks!
Did you just lock in Aphelios and went oh shit how do I do things??? Here ---> 10:40 PS: I hate you, GL HF ^^ hopefully the next bot lane has more luck than the 1st time Aphelios and I had.
@@naughtspellswright bronze aphelious and high elo aphelious is not same. If you cmopletely learned aphelious you wouldnt be bronze at first place bruh.
Lets see is I can recall correctly: ( dont play league but this is interesting) 1. Snifle: long range attack damage weapon, MH, meant for poke, once marked you can auto attack at any distance 2. Life steal: OH, life steal, pair well with chakaram 3. Gravity: OH, slow and cc, 4. AOE: MH, well aoe main damage 5.Chakaram: OH until needed in MH. Only useful for soloing Baron. JK lol. The closer you are, the faster your attack speed. Pair well with Life steal weapon and AOE weapon? Then theres also his Q and Ult for each weapon that I have no idea of. Anyways, good day fam.
Yes, he is, but you will make tons of mistakes - on my first game, I literally had trouble finding my keys as I was thinking. It went like this: "Ok Thresh is coming in but he is low and Varus is far so I will use my pistol Q to heal up and finish him with sniper Q - so W-Q-AUTO-W-Q-AUTO-R if needed" - I ended up ulting into my support trying to get the pistol Q LOL
5:27 he said about sentries from team fortress 2,, and I am shocked because his voice is like a Pro Guide too in the Team Fortress 2.. Are you a Pro in the Team Fortress 2 who make a video guide?
Turret can crit Consuming the mark from sniper can crit Severum Q seem to be able to crit Chakram extra damage can crit The cone damage from flamethrower seems to be able to crit The second part of Flame thrower Q seems to be able to crit Consuming the mark of Sniper ult seems to be able to crit I need to cheek on the practice tool but that seems to be the principal synergies plus his base ad and AS seem to be really (broken) good
"Not unless you wanna lose so stick to bot lane" uhh..no? He could be built either a burst champ or a dps champ. His jungle is pretty solid as long as you stick to single-target enemies (buffs and gromp) and at the end of your jungling phase, you'll have both infernum and gravitum at the ready, giving you a chance to cc the lane you're ganking. For top and mid, it's the same as his bot phase.
So far the role data on him is 40 percent winrate for sup mid and top, 46 for adc and 30 percent for jungle. He's overall performing poorly and the data sample isn't massive outside of ADC but it should show the stark difference between his performance on his intended role and the others.
Hey! Are you a new player who is scared off and/or confused by the skillset of Aphelios? If you are against one, do you doubt yourself? Well, it can screw an Aphelios up early on. I have a story to illustrate HOW damn easy it can be: (TL;DR: Bait Aphelios to miss his Q and then go all-in on him. Later deny him farm. It's that simple!) The first time I fought against Aphelios I was a real beginner. It was a blind pick game. Enemy had Aphelios + a melee champ in botlane and I was solo bot as Mordekaiser ... i'll explain why later, but it's important to point out that I was a slow melee-only champ 1v2 against Aphelios +a non-squishy support. Even with such a stupid match-up Aphelios and the melee-champ lost the lane to me. I had a dysfunctional team, so we lost, but I am proud I could control that 1v2 botlane as long as I did. During the loading screen I checked Aphelios' skills on my phone and still couldn't understand shit before the game had already started. I went top, because I called "top" dibs in champ select. Everyone called their lane, except the player who we expected to play ADC. That was the only role left. Logical, right? Well, they chose Kha'Zix with Smite although we had Warwick locked with Smite already, but no one quit the game yet. After a minute, the support went mid and Warwick went afk... Then Kha'Zix came top. Everyone ignored pings and chat. Great! So I teleported to botlane before the enemy could crash into tower. I attacked the minions only for last hits. I practically froze the wave. There was a minion lead for a short time, which I used to my advantage, pulling Aphelios behind my minions. Since I had no support, I couldn't go all-in on him without dying to his support. I hoped my minions and passive would finish him off. He was very low on health, but survived. In a way that was good for me. He didn't recall. Neither of them did. I kept them too low to dive, denied them last hits, baited when they seemed to back off. They helped freeze the wave close to my tower. Of course better enemies would have annihilated me, but that just proves my point! !!! Wave management and working towards "win conditions" is the key to win the early game.!!! Whatever match-up, whatever team build, if you plan ahead (thinking in which condition would you be more likely to win and what situation would give the enemy advantage) then you know how you should manipulate the wave. Should you go aggressive, crash the wave and recall? Should you keep a safe distance and try to get sneaky last hits, letting them push the wave near your tower? It depends on what helps you more and them less. I dominated the botlane early game as Mordekaiser against Aphelios+melee, but that wasn't enough. Aphelios had a proper team. I had two incompetent junglers and a mid duo, that never roamed. My whole team needed to plan ahead. But planning ahead against Aphelios can be simple: 1.bait him. 2. after he uses his ONLY SKILL just fuck him up 3.bully him away from the wave. I hope this helps.
@@93Taru ive found a lot of success with aery swain with a GLP rush in dia elo, since traditional ADCs ( so this doesnt apply to the likes of heimerdinger ) mostly dont outrange his E and dont fare well against a bursty tanky mage. Main focus is teamfighting and warding, since if you do well you can solo kill the enemy solo laners while clearing vision and you can outdamage the enemy support by a huge margin, while at the same time putting a lot of pressure on the enemy team, since they have one more high damage target to worry about
"does not have a powerspike" RIIIGHT runans hurricane begs to differ with flamethrower ult. But yeah i get that this video is old and ppl didnt know shit about aphelios then.
If you can associate 5 bars = full ammo 1 bar = almost out means you can play him at base functionality. Also that thing it's broken since you can instantly proc conqueror or press the attack so you can basically just right click and everything will day. But no in all srly his skill floor it's pretty low once your muscle memory stops betraying you trying to switch gun with Q if you play Jinx or R if you play Jayce
Mid isn’t that bad with aphelios either.... he’s kinda op in mid ngl.................. just watch out for hero’s that do loads of damage and have gap closing abilities ESPECIALLY early game cause aph is squishy as hell.... so like avoid master yi and yasuhoe..... Camille isn’t that bad but still can be annoying.
I didn't feed when I was first time Aphelios. Instead I've got a penta... Well that's not good bc I thought that I'm starting to learn him pretty quickly if I got a penta from the first game, but my next 10 games were like 0/8 KEKW
I’ve only been playing league for like a week and a half and I searched for aphelios guides because he is a f2p champ. Ngl, I’m even more confused now.

Love the format of the video. Would love to see more of this. One of the best videos I've seen convering him.
In-depth and straight to the point. 11/10 nice!
I love how in every single guide no one's talking about how you can get to low ammo on both guns then Q swap Q q swap Q
That is more of an advanced mechanic that requires some setup and prediction on what his most important guns will be in the next fight while purposely draining the ammo. At least on my part it's not this strat isn't known but it didn't have a place in this particular style of guide. It is pretty useful though.
Chill out man, most of us are still learning his dam weapons. Who tf carries this many weapons into battle?

No problem shouldn't be very hard since he currently sits at a 46 percent winrate so everyone is feeding on him anyway.

Yo can we get one of these for singed? I know he’s old as dirt but I still have no clue how he works, why can he proxy better than anyone else?
cuz he quicc and has good aoe dmg
u dont hit the minions u fart on them till the die
i'm ashamed to admit that i'm Plat 3 but i still needed this video to explain Aphelios to me more than you'd think 😂😂😂😂
Plat is still low elo, my man.
im bronze and learned how to play aphelios myself smh

Very good and simple guide, thank you! Do those more for other champions :D
On it
Lets see is I can recall correctly: ( dont play league but this is interesting)
1. Snifle: long range attack damage weapon, MH, meant for poke, once marked you can auto attack at any distance
2. Life steal: OH, life steal, pair well with chakaram

4. AOE: MH, well aoe main damage
5.Chakaram: OH until needed in MH. Only useful for soloing Baron. JK lol. The closer you are, the faster your attack speed. Pair well with Life steal weapon and AOE weapon?
Then theres also his Q and Ult for each weapon that I have no idea of. Anyways, good day fam.
he's the only champion to not have an e ability
teemo:
Teemo has an e ability and it's pretty important
Ability and active ability is different
5:27 Uncle Dane would be proud.
damnnn i needed this guide. i just started playing league and aphelios caught my eye
If you die blame your support if you can't blame your team...... wow very insightful lmao
Can I make lethal tempo work ?
Thanks for the guide! I just need to level up one more time to obtain enough BE to purchase him. Is he fun tho?
Yes, he is, but you will make tons of mistakes - on my first game, I literally had trouble finding my keys as I was thinking. It went like this: "Ok Thresh is coming in but he is low and Varus is far so I will use my pistol Q to heal up and finish him with sniper Q - so W-Q-AUTO-W-Q-AUTO-R if needed" - I ended up ulting into my support trying to get the pistol Q LOL

hows this channel below like 500 k +. Super helpful and useful channel, appreciated.
Omg nice video tho
Finally im understand a bit of this weapon swapping 😂👍🔥
ive watched like 3 of these vids and still have no idea wtf he does
Same
Ok let see how we doo
I didn’t know Aphelios was such a new champ, I thought he was a couple years old. The speed champions come out at is crazy.
I understand he has 5 guns, yes?
for one who is a noob like myself I didn't understand the other guides but this I understood
5:27 he said about sentries from team fortress 2,, and I am shocked because his voice is like a Pro Guide too in the Team Fortress 2.. Are you a Pro in the Team Fortress 2 who make a video guide?
Which of your 2 starting guns do you think is better to leash with?
Uhh I'm kinda a noob but I usually start with sniper just cuz life steal is always nice to have off hand and so you want more ammo for it.
Why does he sounds like yamikaze?
at 8:00 the video glitches out
Why does he syngergize well with crit? no abilities in his kit has Crit scaling.
Turret can crit
Consuming the mark from sniper can crit
Severum Q seem to be able to crit
Chakram extra damage can crit
The cone damage from flamethrower seems to be able to crit
The second part of Flame thrower Q seems to be able to crit
Consuming the mark of Sniper ult seems to be able to crit
I need to cheek on the practice tool but that seems to be the principal synergies plus his base ad and AS seem to be really (broken) good
dat calibrum is so good in lane.
His pistol is also double-ended as a scythe
"Not unless you wanna lose so stick to bot lane" uhh..no? He could be built either a burst champ or a dps champ. His jungle is pretty solid as long as you stick to single-target enemies (buffs and gromp) and at the end of your jungling phase, you'll have both infernum and gravitum at the ready, giving you a chance to cc the lane you're ganking.

Too much weapon aphelios
Aphelios: how about the dummies
y dont u go conqueror coz it easily stacks with severum infernum and chakram
lethal would workbetter with the servo/ charam/ flame thrower combo
