Thank you very much! I enjoy Samuel. I think he's balanced very well, although I fear the always looming nerf. Glad you enjoyed it.

You're very welcome. I try to make my guides as complete as I can. Samuel is a great character, I hope you enjoy him!

It is the only WP item with armor pierce, and it is listed as optional.

Seriuosly? First, it's not to bright to call someone a silly idiot in the same post you make a mistake. The boots are right there: halcyon chargers. Second, I'm not sure how krul is breaking point, unless you're implying his abilities act in a similar fashion, and if that's the case you're wrong. breaking point increases your WP as you deal damage. The closest thing krul does is Spectral Smite, which weakens the enemies attack, it doesn't increase yours, which is more akin to armor....

If I had to bet I would bet that his corrupted genius and his empowered malice & verdict will probably see a nerf.

Thank you! Glad I could provide a different perspective.

Thanks very much!

Fountain does have its set backs, late game it becomes nearly useless as a healing mechanism because it doesn't work fast enough, and with only +200 health there are better items to boost Lyra's sigil. However, as a roam built early it is a...

Again different play styles. I'm not an aggressive laner, especially with Lyra now that she's so squishy, far more susecptible to ganks. So I prefer energy battery with my play style. As for your Broken Myth substitution I addressed that in the guide, however I've not yet run the new numbers with the nerf on her basic attacks, I will address in the update.

Not sure why your opinion of Lyra being OP is relevant to whether there should be a guide. As to your atlas pauldron comment you may note that I primarily play Lyra in the lane, also Lyra isn't a brawler and even in team fights is better from a distance
