Overview
Learning the ways of joust 1v1. Joust ranked can be intimidating without support of 2 other team mates by your side, but don’t let something like that haze you. Joust 1v1 is simply solo laning with a useless jungler. Good pick ups for joust are gods with sustain or high damage dealers. Some gods i personally like to use help me out a ton in these matches and usually have good results. Gods i recommend. Aphrodite – Good sustain and wave clear, not the fastest way to win since she is a bit frail earlier in the match, does well mid to late game. Chang’e – Good sustain, good movement speed, passive lets her buy items from tower. Chronos – Ult helps in sticky situations, good movement speed and damage, good cc. Freya – Good lifesteal, does good damage if you land basics. Bakasura – Great early damage, good healing ability helps sustain him. Ah muzen Cab – Good slows and DoT damage. Agni – High CC and DoT damage. Ra – Good wave clear and sustain.I know i’m missing a ton of gods, these are the ones i personally use in ranked joust. Gods i don’t recommend Loki – Falls off early, wave clear is not the best. Hel – Stance forms consume too much mana, but can be avoided with meditation. Ullr – Ullr can be viable if played correctly, but for beginners i would not recommend him. Fenrir – Can be easily countered with beads, if you decided to build tank you probably wont deal enough damage. Ah puch – Mana hungry, If you happened to be caught outside if lane you’re probably going to die.Going for mana buff straight out of fountain helps sustain for a while, if you happen to see your enemy backing while you have good enough mana or hp, gathering jungle buffs in their absence helps you get ahead on gold and xp. Though it may seem obvious avoid risky tower dives unless you’re positive you can confirm the kill. Get stack items early so you dont have to wait on them. Place wards to locate the enemy, if you happen to be ahead this can be a good opportunity to keep them low on gold and xp if you see them in the jungle.
