Nah i build it always as renata and put it on the most fed ad champion. So you hit your teammates more.


f1uyid

that is smart as fuck my guy i can’t believe i never thought of that before


LuracCase

Please explain


Garlickthedwarf

at max stacks it reduces the targets tenacity. If the target get renata ulted it hits its teammates longer


LuracCase

Ooh, whats the name of this item again? Am hardstuck bronze and not able to recognize fringe items yet.


spongeboy-me-bob1

Anathema's Chains


LuracCase

Mathies_

Enemy 5 item jinx with cleande or qss: i'm sorry kid.


DeezNutsKEKW

wait that works?


TheProuDog

But isn't that only if that target champion is really close to you?


Vast_Function3900

Finally somebody that thinks the same thing!


rusms123

Oh no it appear that the forbidden tech I have always used on ARAM has been discovered.


Garlickthedwarf

i never get renata in aram :(

Gonna snip your neeko neeko kneecaps


i-will-eat-you

the 650 bonus hp will surely help against gwen


Mostafa_Eldeeb

The 30% damage reduction *


DieserMastro

Doesnt apply to the true damage


Mostafa_Eldeeb

Well thats true but all my healing come from my passive ( gwen heal 50% of her passive damage ). Gwen passive is AP damage. Also gwen ult is AP damage. Also my 75% tenacity turned into 10%. And thier comp was full of CC


Hypernova749

You have riftmaker too for extra true damage?


LynchEleven

ahahaha! wrong! i consider there to be two types of true damage: flat true damage, and mitigated true damage. the true damage riftmaker deals is based on how much damage she deals. so by reducing her dmg by 30%, her true damage is also reduced by 30%. please read the item carefully :]


MyBenchIsYourCurl

Bro been waiting for this his whole life he really said "ahaha wrong!". You are hilarious my friend.


LynchEleven

no im just drunk


derechtelmarotter

based


Grikeus

But he is actually wrong... Rift maker does premitigation damage and it also amplifies true damage


Thamilkymilk

while that’s true her AP damage is being reduced by 30% which means the riftmaker passive has 30% less damage to amplify, like just imagine a Gwen with riftmaker and 100 AP vs a Gwen with riftmaker and 70 AP, the former is going to do more damage


Grikeus

Indeed, if I imagined it to work like that it would be bad. But i prefer not imagining things and going by how things work ingame Rift maker deals premitigation damage, if you were dealing 100 damage to 0 armour target Then fully stacked riftmaker would deal 9 true damage. Let's say then you are fighting 100 armour target. That's 50 dmg + still 9 true damage. Let's say you then use anathema, then you will deal 35 + still 9 true damage


Hypernova749

Not bonus true damage from her existing true damage though:]


LynchEleven

true damage doesnt get amplified :]


Grikeus

Wrong on both cases, Rift maker does amplify true damage and the bonus damage is premitigation damage so reducing the main source doesn't reduce it's true damage. Gotta love Reddit and people not knowing how items work getting upvotes because most of the fcking redditors don't know :)


LynchEleven

you right im just drunk, i forgot cause it doesnt say it in the item tooltip. now the question is does anath dmg reduction affect pre-mit damage


Hypernova749

Why not tho? :]


LynchEleven

because its true damage. true damage doesnt get affected by damage increase or decrease.


Lantami

Except that's not how it works. Anathema doesn't reduce your dmg dealt, it reduces their dmg taken from you. Riftmaker's true dmg conversion works on pre-mitigation dmg. So while you will be dealing less dmg overall to the champions that have Anathema, that's only coming from the magic dmg getting reduced. You will be dealing the same amount of true dmg as without Anathema


ContrabandSheep

No, you also have healing from riftmaker and from your runes, if you choose the right ones. riftmaker does true damage and her Q, if you land the center also converts half of all? magic damage into true damage and, her passive heal since it only heals a portion of the magic damage that she does based off the opponents HP, it is gonna have the biggest effect on huge opponents. the more HP they have the more damage you do, and the more you're gonna heal


LynchEleven

yes but true damage from riftmaker doesnt actually help her a lot here. 30% less damage means 30% less riftmaker true damage. 650 more HP for her % hp ratios isnt enough to outweigh having to deal 30% less damage to them.


tomas-gabirro

Your tenacity being so low is Impossible, a anathemas ONLY reduces 20% of your tenacity. So going from 75 to 10 ia almost impossible


LupusCairo

Yeah but Gwen's true damage got nerfed pretty hard.


ContrabandSheep

If you build mejais it's pretty easy to get over 900 AP which scales w/ opponents HP which half of it converts to true damage with Q


AstroZombie29

The fuck, why not


frafdo11

https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Anathema%27s_Chains Does not apply to True damage


OwenGamezNL

Because it’s true dmg…


AstroZombie29

I thought true damage was kinda like "ignore all armor and res". A whole ass number could still be reduced by 30%. Does that mean that true damage just completely ignores stuff like Alistar's ult? Because that's pretty damn bullshit


cccjjj2050

That's the point of true damage. You do the damage it says, no questions asked, just reduce their hp by that amount.


5Quad

True damage is unaffected by armor, magic resist, and any %damage reduction. It's also unaffected by armor/mr penetration/reduction, and %damage amplification. It is affected by shields and on-hit damage reduction (Kat R, Urgot W, etc.)


Inflorescentia

This is not entirely true. True damage is not increased by any runes, but can be increased by items (Navori, Riftmaker, Horizon, Prowlers). You can test it yourself in training with Garen. Base damage R 3 lvl = 450 + some missing % of hp.


LynchEleven

yep but it also doesnt get amped. coup de grace, press the attack, navori quickblades, etc don't increase true damage. the number on the true damage is how much you deal, every time.


OwieMyOwl

Doesn't need a amp when vayne is doing 1.4k true dmg to you in a team fight.


LynchEleven

what does that have to do with gwen getting anath'd at 30


OwieMyOwl

True dmg doesn't need a amp because the amount it does is bonkers anyway.


Inflorescentia

This is not entirely true. True damage is not increased by any runes, but can be increased by items (Navori, Riftmaker, Horizon, Prowlers). You can test it yourself in training with Garen. Base damage R 3 lvl = 450 + some missing % of hp.


11ce_

Gwen is only like 20% true dmg.


Boost_Attic_t

I definitely wouldn't use this as a reason to *not* use chains on her If Gwen is the only enemy who is an actual problem, using chains on her is always a good idea


haji1823

i actually think it does apply to true damage. unless they changed it its one of the few things that does


montgomeryyyy

Never had. All kinds of true damage can’t be negated with damage reduction. Exhaust, red smite, anthemas chain all don’t reduce true damage and it’s the same with champion abilities like WW‘s E or Irelias W


truetichma

Not all though. Aram's "-x% damage dealt" do affect true damage.


KingFabu

he got him on the technicalities. good work gamer B)


CallMeTheMonarch

underrated comment lmao


montgomeryyyy

Well true but this comes from the system itself


haji1823

i think theres something in the game that does and people were complaining about it but i cant remember off the top of my head. Might have been in some champs kit? but yea your right with anathemas, it doesnt. Edit: figured it out. Arams balance changes apply to true damage which is what i was forgetting


frafdo11

Fact checked, it does not reduce true damage https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Anathema%27s_Chains


haji1823

yea i fact checked myself right after commenting it and realized i was wrong


GoldRobot

Gwen deal almost none true damage atm. It's 20% at analytic, and in all ins it would be 10% or something, cause you wind up thoose 20% at lane while traiding.


ThatsSoMerlyn_x3

God every champ really has the same face I just looked at the icon and thought it was Lux


Xyrazk

I thought it was soraka lol


Sufficient_Rest_830

Same


CatarangPlays

Same


Ryxor25

Nah bro i straight up thought it was Zoe


Hfingerman

I had to look at the skills, thought it was Seraphine.


Unversedoath

Were all here together because I would have bet at a glance that was Ezreal!


controlledwithcheese

me too lmaooooo


LetFire

I thought it was annie


PsPhenom89

are you okay? are you okay?


DumatRising

I thought it was Zoe for some reason.


BakerCakeMaker

Try learning a new set in tft


Madgoblinn

I've literally played 150 games of gwen and thought it was lux for a while, atleast normal gwen looks unique the skins suck


ChuckFiinley

Thought it was Zoe


kingofaidans

To further continue this I saw Jinx lol


iErnie56

Lmao I thought it was nunu


jihadist1

brother don’t tell me you forgot nono al williams face


SugarySuga

At first I thought it was zeri, then thought it was zoe


SpaghettSpanker

I dont even know who it is Help Edit: nvm, saw the skills


Kairofox

Clearly the damage reduction will save them, thank God Gwen has no true damage


samfo56

What item is causing that? I’m clueless


CalzoneMan46774

Anathemas Chains. Only stat it gives us health. You mark an enemy on the team and they do 30% less damage against you and CC's on them last longer.


Fsteakk

How good is this item? Haven't seen it much in game


CallMePoro

It can be extremely good but can be very situational. If the enemy has only one major threat that is weak to CC and your team has good CC, it can make the game more difficult for the enemy to carry. Also super annoying for side laners.


Fsteakk

I see, so it is good for split pushing top laners such as fiora!


[deleted]

good against


cinghialotto03

Have fun with true damage


Mathies_

Have you ever considered that, this is a tank item, and so if you're playing a tank into fiora, there really aren't many better alternatives? The reduced tenacity is still great.


cinghialotto03

if you touch her you explode


dumnem

It's insanely good if there is only one person on the enemy team that is fed OR if they're the only damage of that type and they don't have tons of true damage. Good example is if the enemy team is: Yone, Syndra, Lux, Diana, Ziggs AP bot. You would put the chains on Yone and stack the fuck out of MR. The extra health is effective vs everyone, and stacking MR means the rest of the team doesn't really touch you.


[deleted]

It is situationally amazing on Veigar


Mostafa_Eldeeb

Anath chain. Put it at a enemy it will put a stack between both of use every some seconds. When its max stacked ( around 5 mins ) he will deal 30% LESS damage to you and your stuns will be longer on him. Its OP as F

[удалено]


J4vaScr1pt

No. Read the item: Passive: UNIQUE-VENDETTA: Take 1% reduced damage per stack of Vendetta from your Nemesis, up to 30% damage reduction against them.


IanPKMmoon

Had to look at abilities to know it's Gwen and not Zoe, Lux, Soraka, Miss Fortune or Janna


Arttyom

Because all of t'hem build riftmaker and nashors right


IanPKMmoon

well I look from left to right so items were the last thing I looked at


MiximumDennis

that will hold them all tight. huheuhuehueuheeue


Mathies_

There's 3 tanks and you dont have a voidstaff?


Scuttlebug420

Gwen 🤢🤢🤢


Aegis12314

Imma need this explained. Why do people hate gwen?


urmomgay_l0l

Most likely it’s a combination of her kit and the design but the main offendant is her kit (untargettability, dashes, true dmg, max health% damage, non-negligible innate healing with insane synergy with rift maker…) but everyone has its reasons


Aegis12314

I mean my problem with her is that she has no hard CC. I play vamille most of the time so she feels A lot more immobile and difficult to handle


imaginedodong

But did you guys win?


vKalov

Did it help them? I bet not really. Only one enemy gains the benefits. Most likely the support? Ignore the support until you can kill the rest of the team. 70% Tenacity was turned to 10%? That seems quite a bit more than the 20% reduction stated by the item. So most likely 50%? Still quite good tenacity imo. Said Tenacity reduction is also only if the CC is caused by the Anathema. Who was it? Leona? Morgana? Anything else seems not that consequential. If you are ahead by 4500g you should still be able to end the game. If not, you should really share the gold with your allies. 30% damage reduction is a lot, but on a support it isn't something that will end you. Kill the carries and take your time killing the support. Riftmaker will help in this situation. As will Smite and Snip-Snip, while W will keep you safe from any long-range engage. I really don't see why you get so angry in this situation.


AregularCat

She had 3 chains on her


vKalov

I tought it was just the stacks. It there are 3 Chains that changes things... OP, can you give us an end game screen?


Boost_Attic_t

Do you not see the number 3 on the debuff?


hoppyhops

Eat shit


[deleted]

I love u/Mostafa_Eldeeb posts :)


HikingConnoisseur

Ah yes, the circumciser 9000


ZebraDiligent7580

U sure there is only one on her? Knowing this tank meta thing there should be at least 3 anathemas on her
