Ofc they will, but hopefully after this vid, there will be few more mains... And then more... Eventually I'll make an army and take control over the world, trust
people not knowing that Eing while Q is midair will proc stacks even if the enemy doesn't have any is such a disadvantage for new kalista players. you can auto Q E and it will deal so much more dmg, but people just never make it a known fact, glad you brought it up. also you missed that kalista's auto's E proc works like Q's, aka mid air auto will proc E once it lands if you've cast it beforehand, and that kalista jumps further backwards and the tier of boots affect her jump distance (which was irrelevant till riot brought new shoes in) overall good and short video explaining the champ pretty well
Now, as an OTP Kalista-mid (...yeah...), I find her W really helpful... Thank u so much for ur videos, they're pretty helpful and make me less lonely on this champ < 3
waaiiit wait wait wait wait WHAAT. 1:38 I NEED MORE INFO. how does this work?? So basically I can super armor through any short stun/knock?? also is double rend still a thing?
I just didnt jump there, but if you get taunted/feared mid-jump, you can actually do ignore those, and jump towards enemy while feared for example. And yes, double rend is still a thing, but I dont remember if it deals the base damage twice or not
@@yuzuu1337 thats insane, i had no idea o.o learning kalista so this is very helpful also, i think it does double base if you time it right and are at least a certain distance away from the target
Hi! OTP kalista for a few years here (tho low elo, emerald, so all of what I'll say can be comprehensibly taken as trash), I loved ur video and want to talk a lil abt my current approach to the champ (DON'T take any of the following as valid on the new split, I haven't tried shit). Generally love the champ and it's playability, I play it mostly as ADC with the normal build but what i've found the most fun in lately is in full lethality supp, specifically with certain early explosive dmg adcs. The best one so far and the one I've played the most with is AP twitch, which sounds kinda weird but allows u to make the most fucking unfair cheese lv1 with both stacking nukes on the E of both champs with hell of blades, the other interesting stuff is the build: Lethality in general but make sure to get axiom arc as ur ult is extremely good to disengage or save ur adc generally and (personal take) Solstice Slaigh to get more engage using the E slow. Out of that, u play to poke half the adc's hp in lane from just landing ur Q E with one item and the playstyle I've found the most fun is: Inting. U get ur Q, hell of blades, E on any champ and let ur adc finish it, if u have no R it generally doesn't matter in a TF as u won't do much more and u're basically trading a 1x1 but u revive faster and give less gold cuz u inted most of the game, and if u're chasing/ambushing i'ts a oneshot.
You covered it (kind of?) in the section about standing still, but I'm not sure if kalista still loses dps by hopping in general, aside from doing it while slowed. I'm not sure if it's been "fixed" but i still play her and i think it's just a feature at this point
She loses the DPS when the attack speed is above 1.7 and you jump, because the animation has limited speed. You only dont lose the dps when you drift but without LT its not even worth trying
I just played with a Kalista for the first time (I'm a supp) and I am still a lil confused on what that connective tissue/strand/leash does and how to navigate her ult. She asked whether to spear me or our jg at the beginning and I was like..."ummm up to you" because I had no idea what that meant. :( and then her ult was disorienting and I feel bad I think I messed it up. When she ults what do I do/press? I feel like I'm supposed to face a certain way too. Can you explain it like I'm 8 years old? Pretty please? I want to be a better supp :(
if she spears you, you do the funny damage if you attack the same target with auto attacks (you can see the mark on enemy), and when she ults you, you basically yeet yourself with left click into enemy team doing 0 dmg malphite ult on them, or just run away if you think its a mentally ill call to go in
how the builds change with the recent changes? i was using your playstyle guide but idk how to build properly cuz im new to her. i usually go hubris->collector->runaan/ie->ie/runaan or botrk->guinsoo->runaan
I will make a new item guide soon, but for now hubris is not as good, jist because crit has become much stronger (that, and its more consistent, if yoi go hubris and dont get lead you are useless) And for the PTA build, been testing guinsoo into hurri into BT and it seems to be good for now
@@Lucas-nj1fs yea bork is most likely dead, it might still be decent against VERY tanky comps, but in most cases its just not nearly as good (especially with ldr increased armor pen)
@@yuzuu1337 ohh yeah, i built it in other champions but i didn't really like it, would you say lethality kalista is also dead/other builds outshine it?
@@Lucas-nj1fs lethality kalista still works, but as always its situational vs on hit. You can also go either full crit, or mix of crit with lethality, those seem to work similarly to how it did before
Thought I'd just mention it here, putting a second point into Q even if you are maxing E is often too good to pass up on, Rank 1 Q is absolute dog$%*T and does practically zero damage making it at most a utility for double dash or to move rend stacks off a minion to another target. 2 ranks in Q however makes it significantly more effective for short trades or to execute, i have no idea why the rank 2 Q is so much stronger than rank 1 but its a worth while note. Many games by lvl 5 I have 2 ranks Q 1 rank W and 2 ranks E since this seems to be a solid all around use of her whole kit for both respectable short trades with Q/E combo but still having ranks in E to scale up Kalista's main damaging ability for all-ins
Heh... keria kalista jg 15 sec full clear 1v5 penta... And for those who think kalista support is a bait, i reached gold just playing her... Also funni thing i discovered; kalista's ult can cleanse you from urgot's r pull... I literally have this fucking clipped. The highest multiple kill i've gotten is a quadra... good for when your adc is a useless carried in lane mutt that you surely won't outdps by 45k dmg while 3k g behind ( this happens much more commonly than people think KEK ). And honestly w is so underrated that when you go w lvl2 and you chunk off 1/3 of their hp if you get to double rend it... don't just ignore w but also don't level it up if you have a braindead mage support "smash it's keyboard penta" player Also... yuzuu i have to ask something... Are the yun blades runnan crit worth it? ( the funny old draven passive turned into an item plus runnan ) Also... rip drifting kalista...
@@yuzuu1337 i knew botrk was dead the moment i saw the 6% current hp dmg honestly... Even w better base stats that -3% hits harder than anything... Btw... opinions on KS? I think it's mid but some people seem to prefer it if you start the fight w a prepared buffed aa then PTA...
@@poutykeiki2574 I tried kraken few games as a rush item, but its just plain bad. The stats are good but since kalista finishes off low hp targets, you dont utilizatie it as well as other champs. Also the same reason bork was always good on her
hey there. great video :) i was wondering if you are aware about kalista fast jump mechanic with high attack speed.... im gonna link a yt video about the mechanic so you know what im talking about ⬇ Assuming you know it already, could you make a video about it? i cant find anyone who can explain it on how to do it exactly.. and it seems like it's very OP especially if you can apply it in ranked, even though i dont think ive ever seen someone doing it in my games. Also what build would you recommend for Kalista this new split season?? i liked on hit kalista last season and i was running lethal tempo every single game.. but now it got removed :( and i feel kinda lost. is it worth to run Hail of Blades every game over Press the Attack? ua-cam.com/video/itkTLwzx1LY/v-deo.html
Ah you mean drifting? It doesnt reallly have any actual use in game, mainly because of slows, mediocre itemization (especially after removal of LT) and inconsistency. I've made a short about that, and many other tricks on kalista, but tldr you have to attack standing for a moment, and then right click to the rythm. If you are fast enough you can also do it with left click right click, but yea its not very consistent trick
If you like this content, don't forget to like and sub, also ANY FEEDBACK to improve it, is welcomed
its funny how you make a joke about hr getting nerf, it got nerf
Im sure the 10 Kalista players really enjoy this vid, considering at least 2 of them are already in the discord
Ofc they will, but hopefully after this vid, there will be few more mains... And then more... Eventually I'll make an army and take control over the world, trust
I enjoy the vid, thank you for your concenr
I'm part of the ten choosen ones
That Kalista riding on Scuttle was the cutest art ive ever seen oh gosh
Its my fav as well, wanna incorporate it a bit more if I can XD
@@yuzuu1337 oh you should its the best xD
also just putting in a second point in Q before maxing E gives it +60 damage for no reason :D
Thats also true, small poke always good
The way I choked at "Move your stupid ass" ahah
people not knowing that Eing while Q is midair will proc stacks even if the enemy doesn't have any is such a disadvantage for new kalista players. you can auto Q E and it will deal so much more dmg, but people just never make it a known fact, glad you brought it up. also you missed that kalista's auto's E proc works like Q's, aka mid air auto will proc E once it lands if you've cast it beforehand, and that kalista jumps further backwards and the tier of boots affect her jump distance (which was irrelevant till riot brought new shoes in) overall good and short video explaining the champ pretty well
Yea I've missed those sadly, but tbf for the jump length related to boot tier is still irrelevant since zephyr is basically a bait item on her
@@yuzuu1337 fair, fair. But it's still info that could be useful if they decide to add anything new
I just picked up Kalista yesterday, and found this guide helpful, thanks. I have to check out more videos from this channel
Always happy to help with this forgotten champ
Thank you so much for all your content ! Been loving your channel since I found it !
Thanks a lot, really appreciate it
Now, as an OTP Kalista-mid (...yeah...), I find her W really helpful...
Thank u so much for ur videos, they're pretty helpful and make me less lonely on this champ < 3

Lmfao, I like the Kalista chibi. It's nice. I am now one of the elusive Kalista players
I got a kill by stacking gromp and Qing those stacks to a Kayn, that alone was satisfying enough for me to keep playing her
Respectable

You can reset your E with killing a minion when auto is on way to him
Thank you so much. 👍
hello 11th kalista player here good vid
i wanna know at what attack speed you start to lose DPS if you kite as opposed to standing still
Its around 1.7, and when it comes to moving between the attacks, its worth doing until around 1.4 or 1. 5 AS
you forgot about dash distance difference between Q and AA! That's important to know
Happens to the best, I did indeed forget it, same with front jump being longer than jump behind
@@yuzuu1337 yeah it happens ahah just wanted to say it for people reading :)

She loses the DPS when the attack speed is above 1.7 and you jump, because the animation has limited speed. You only dont lose the dps when you drift but without LT its not even worth trying
@@yuzuu1337 does the animation move faster w/ more movement speed?
When u double jump is HoB needed? or does it also work well with LT?
Runes dont impact it much, I mean they can but its not necessary at all
What Runes should I use after Lethal Tempo has been removed + Hail of Blades nerf?
Either PTA or HoB
PTA is for more of an on hit build, while HoB for oneshot or when you think you:ll be struggling on the lane with trades
I just played with a Kalista for the first time (I'm a supp) and I am still a lil confused on what that connective tissue/strand/leash does and how to navigate her ult.

@@yuzuu1337 I'll do my best to only soft int my sensei 🙏
loved the video. can you make gameplay video with kalista
Im planning to, same witg streaming, but I wont have this option for the next few months. For now I can barely record replays in 720p 30fps XD
You forgot to mention about the attack move funny bug that riot never cared to fix since the release of this champ.
Ah yea my bad on that
started maining kalista this patch and my KD went up literally 2x from being an aphelios player
okay wait this champ is busted LOL I'm on a 8 win streak with 3 20+ kill games, 1 30+ kill

Surprised that [E] category don't include the double rend trick, if i remember well i learned it on your channel 🤔
So obvious and yet I forgot, but I guess I did kinda mention it with Q
@@yuzuu1337 lil question, is it faster to dash on cs to reach an enemy or is walking faster ? (with berserker boots)
@@TheotimAntoni jumping with movement in between, that also allows to setup E reset so you slow enemies on top of that
@@yuzuu1337Oouh yeah right setuping E reset, ok yeah definitely worth it

Me too, but it was for the better in the long run
