I think the item has a pretty cool name. Malignance. Festering death, deterioration, anger, and/or evil. Really matches with the item effect of leaving damaging areas that reduce their defenses.

​@@brekk1e_junior308 You just highlighted what makes zwag a good xerath then, he has controlled mana management and doesnt have to waste 400 gold to buy a tear without actually building into a tear item. That means he's 400 gold closer to item powerspikes. Nothing really wrong if you want to keep buying tear for xerath, but practicing mana management without it will make you a lot better as a player, and it's really not something to judge zwag for.

My question is about the shroom+Malignance+Liandris burn interaction. Teemo shrooms poison for 4 seconds so theoretically it would proc twice like Caster’s, but would that magic damage reapply liandri burn? I really wished he built Malignance during the teemo vid. It’s practically built for his type of ultimate 😅

@in00yasha

@@AlexM-db2og It would be one pool I believe. Teemo R only give pool to one when thrown in a crowd. I think Karthus would make a larger pool though. I think Malignance will be great for some supports to increase the teams damage allowing mid to go like Reba instead.

I think that Ult item would work well for Teemo. The shroom slow would keep them in the radius reducing their MR which then increases the rest of the damage they take from the shroom. Then if they walk into another it happens again. Also pretty sure the cooldown on it is that you can only have one burning circle at a time, so the cd is 3s.

Malignace is alot of fun on teemo with dark harvest liandrys and the storm item. And I'm not sure if they will patch this but the little grublings count for scion W passive. If your left alone in the pit and just hit them once then stand there they spawn constantly so you can cheese early hp growth.

Great video, loving the new rift. How about a Ziggs mid with the new items??

Lol. Was just on your other channel and mentioned I was looking forward to you showcasing Xerath with the new changes. 👍

So stoked for this new season!

Thanks for the great vid Zwag!

Malignance really isn't about the burn damage more so the ult haste and MR strip. It works best on champs who can either use their ults often (Teemo/Kogmaw/Corki/Kassadin and so on) or champs who like to lead with their ults and then burst or damage over time. (Fizz, Fiddlesticks, Swain, Malphite, Amumu, Hwei) AP shaco with Malignance is also really fun. The fear from your clone exploding holds them in the puddle for a while and makes them take a lot of damage from the boxes, and Shaco usually follows a clone explosion up with E.

that fiddle was so focused on zwag he ulted him like 5 times in a row

I like how you completely ignored that failed fiddle ult at 15:20

everyone looks like a noskill champion while you are playing it. Its so satisfying

Hi Zwageroo~ Been a fan of your content for so long and would like to request if you could do one of these days a video with a face cam or something? It might be a nice added touch for your videos since we can see your reactions when you are doing your plays 😊

The ult burn item seems to work well on magic pen builds... seems like all pen items you can get damn near true damage on people that dont buy any mr. Cant wait for the item info for damage to get added so we can see how good or bad it is... the current one doesnt seem to work the numbers change alot for me at least.

Full disclaimer for zwag: I do NOT need you to have 5 perfect games for the movies just 4-5 different games with different builds to see which one works best. Day 4 of the movie extravaganza request. Movie 1: Teemo. Movie 2: Caitlyn. Movie 3: Ezreal. Movie 4: Jinx. (Those are the top 4 most viewer popular champs that get alot of views, hence why he plays them fairly often.) Movie 5: Yone. (I dont play league so he's not MY favorite champion however he is my favorite champion to watch zwag play so movie 5 is my request.) No rush zwag been watching for years and will watch for years to come. Much love brotha.

It's less a cooldown and more that there can only be 1 pool at a time - but yes, it is a little unfortunate.

All i cna think of is the magnalence item would be good on ults that keep people pinned for a bit, aka like a malzahar ult or teemo shrooms or even anivia ult would work really well with it

I think Malignance would be good on someone who can use their ult a lot, like a Teemo. Imagine every shroom leaves an AOE burn puddle, plus it slows already, so it's gonna be extra zoning. - Or any CC ult like Zyra or Renata. - Can you imagine a Renata ult and the whole enemy team starts bonking one another while sitting in AOE burn puddles? - Seems cheap enough that AP poke supports that rely on their ult could go for it.

i love this, your videos are fantastic

can you go full mana with stuff like kassadin, or aren't you able to build them together?

That ult items might be really fun on teemo

I feel like champs like Karthus would be great with the item , especially if it creates multiple zones at the same time when he ults

I think the Malignance only has one pool at a time. Because it seemed to have dissipate before it applies on Xerath's ult again.

Late game Lux with Malignance is bound to be utterly hilarious.

its nice to see you skilled af with a champ

Yessssss I've been waiting for this

Hey zwag, what do you think of Malzahar with Malignance and the challenge is to 1 shot someone with your ult ? Great content as always, i love watching your videos !

The poor Fiddlesticks ulted Zwag the whole game and the man barely noted him.

I see Hwei is more suitable as support and control mage secondary. He can be either enchanter or poke mage because of his kit. And if played mid, I think utility role suits him better.

Malignance seems to not be on a set CD, but instead you can only have 1 burn pool out at a time. Even worse multiple instances of ult damage (even if its not tick/dot) doesn't override the original.

which item is better for teemo, malignance or casters companion?

I think Malignance could do wonders for Lissandra since you could R then W and keep them there cooking

Ap malphite seems extra scary: malig, storm, shadow flame, deathcap, void staff, boots

ur first item is op on swain, it perma provs while he ults

I think the enemy Hwei needs to posture a bit more level 1-2 against Xerath. You won't win a snipe off, but if you pressure them into missing a Q and then QQ them you might get to poke them out of lane early because you have the snipe to threaten kills if they stay on low health.

something entertaining watching hwei and xerath lightning bolting each other > Malignance - Its a bit underwhelming damagewise considering its ult only but with the ult haste and the resist stripping I can see it having its place for making things squishier for champs that use their ult as an opener, malphite getting faster ults that also burn and strip the enemies stunned in it for example! With all the extra magic pen and mr removal I can see "lethality mage" maybe becoming a thing > Infact malphite stacking magic pen and resist stripping sounds like a "fun" build to possibly try (malignance, abysal mask, etc etc) Remember when they said they couldn't make a silco champ because his silhouette wasn't distinct enough from other champs ¬_¬

Malignance seems good on champs like malph or Ori who have engage cc ults

Does that New Item work on Swain or Renata? both of them (my main has AoE ult landing them with that item would be crazy)

So Far the item works the best on Teemo it seems, It will proc on Shrooms Everytime. I think the item needs to have a buff for champs like Xerath / Teemo/ Anyone with Spammable "R"s that the Zone doesn't Vanish after a New R Cast. Also, I think the Value in a Team fight of the Zone is going to be massive especially vs Tanks and Fighters. You Will get so much Free AOE damage but so Far I think so far though the Item is really only good on Teemo / Leblanc. When they make it so it can Spawn A Zone Per Ult Cast that Doesn't Vanish I think it becomes really good for Champs with Spammable Ults. - Teemo (Currently best user probably) - Leblanc Doube Chain is a Nice use for it - Malzher - Aniva - Kass I just think the buff it needs is to make more than one Zone. Buffs it hard for Kass , Xerath & Teemo

Maybe try malignant on Swain? See if the area can apply on a dot ult multiple times?

What about if you do liandrys mask, then Cristal and the ultimate item 3rd

comparing the title to zwags attitude toward the items is just hilarious
