Introduction

Welcome to my guide for Chernobog!


I am a casual player who primarily plays conquest.
Chernobog remains my favored adc by far, thus this is a guide for Chernobog in the duo lane.
Do note: the build above is made by me and is meant to be a fun Crit/Atk. Speed build for Chernobog. If you do not agree with my decision leave some constructive criticism or just don't use my build.
Special thanks to Branmuffin117 for the amazing help he gave to me with building this build.

Sorry if setting up the build was a pain XD - Once you get used to it, it's not too difficult, especially if you're not using BBcode and writing a lot of info. If you have questions I can help.

Regarding the build, multiple comments to suggest for improvement:
  • Generally in a carry role, if especially talking about Conquest, your first item is typically Devourer's Gauntlet, not Bloodforge. Same starter so that helps, but yeah, the slightly higher lifesteal, plus the 15 flat pen, are typically preferred for higher damage potential, though I understand liking the BF passive.

  • You're severely lacking in pen function. Your 2nd item is often going to be The Executioner, though if you like getting crit early, I can see going for Demon Blade first.

  • Since you're going for a late Ornate Arrow, I would probably back off on so many crit items. 2 + Ornate late is plenty. E.g. here I'd drop Bladed Boomerang.

  • When you get Rage, you want to get it earlier to help build stacks. But what's bigger is that when going with a crit build, typically your final standard crit item would be Deathbringer. Given that both DB and Exe, both absent from your build, give you increased late-game functionality with their Glyph upgrade options, they should be standard parts of your build.

  • Don't get Berserker's Shield or any other protection item unless you really, really need it. Yes, the AS fits a carry function, the rest of it doesn't really help. Instead, get more pen or other damage items. Dominance is a common one.

  • Don't get Teleport Fragment. Your first main relic should almost always be Purification Beads. Your second is usually going to be Aegis Amulet. You have to have really, really good reasons not to use those. In a case where your lane enemy is pushing your tower, you can always ult on them to get back to lane quicker.

  • Your skill leveling isn't optimal. Typically you max Crystallized Curses first...prioritize it first and max it by level 9. Don't start putting more levels into your ult after 5 until you've maxed Vicious Barrage, which should be your second priority. First 5 levels should be 1 -> 2 -> 3-> 1 -> ult.
Let me know if you need further explanation on these reasonings. Hope this helps.
