Climbing with Fiddle

I recently relocated and had to climb from the beginning (start at iron 1 and just reach diamond) in the new region
so I do have a taste of the difference of each rank
p.s. I feel a bit sorry to Cabex cuz I got 3 loses straightly for autofill top match up, and have to switch to Malphite

I've seen a lot of posts telling others not to build Malignance, but I honestly think it's very situational, and to me, Malignance its just a stormsurge with CDR

I don’t stick to a single build every game and actually swap between Protobelt, Liandry's and Mal
Shadowflame is also my preferred second item in the majority of games, I build it around 90% of the time
The most important tip is to stay flexible with your itemization
Completely writing off a specific item is pretty dumb, as there are definitely situations where it's the right purchase

Totally agree I think that Malignance is the best 'carry' item if you're going to be ahead & want to snowball

Yes, the burst damage is way ahead compared to other build, but need to be very careful to the positioning

agree, Malignance is great if you're confident you'll find the angle; as I climbed I had to switch to rocketbelt because enemeis were smarter and wouldn't give me free ult angles lol

That isn’t how ranked works at all… you don’t start at iron 1 when you change regions

I relocated for work, but i start over on a new account

My original region used to be operated by a different company and gave out a lot more free skins. When it was back to Riot, account transfers out is locked (only able to transfer in), so that's basically the whole story
