I’ve been building Fimbulwinter for a while as part of a haste/healing build. So rushing Cosmic followed by Fimbulwinter, Riftmaker, Spirit Visage and then either Liandrys or Zhonyas usually, usually Zhonyas for the armour and stopwatch. Swifties for the boots. It really feels unkillable in late game team fights. With both the healing and shielding, I feel like Spirit Visage is worth it in this case, and you’re getting a ton of additional AP from Riftmaker. Cosmic could be replaced with either Liandrys or Ryalis, but I’ve been really enjoying that extra haste in early-mid game.
try fitting in unending despair if you can, unending + spirits + riftmaker is insane on any champion with ap/hp ratios and innate healing, work wonders on zac too
I have never played Swain before and never had the interest to try him, but your videos make me want to try him out, I want to try conqueror + riftmaker and see just how much I will regen in a teamfight. Ty Husum I will now hop on lol and buy Swain and start playing him a little.
I tried this build while putting 3 points into w and maxing e after. It felt really great, you get the fimbul shields always. Whats your opinion on this skill order?
Yo Husum, big fan, like the build, but why did you go for it this game specifically? You have lots of utility with Ashe + Rell. You're the sole magic damage dealer and they have lots of %hp dmg, they also lack range so their gameplan forces them to always walk into you, wouldnt something like conq/sorc to solve mana and then rift+liandries into a hourglass/FH make more sense?
Happy holidays! Yeah of course you’ll consider this build since you got a penta the first time you tried it. 😂 But seriously, thank you for sharing the Korean build because as much as I love Swain’s rework, I miss the tankiness that he lost.
We need more videos with Swana build Also Rod of Ages would be a nice addition + 15 heal every Q + 20 heal every E + mana for damage taken seems promising technology
Hi Husum Hope you had a wonderfull christmas! I ve been trying this build mostly on top Lane, but with tear start and roa first item. Ive had games with 8000 damage shielded with filbulwinter. However i think we lack a bit of damage late game. Keep going crow lord!
I like cdr boots with this build because lack of cdr, nice to see different builds in your last 2 videos :D how about ludens shadowflame DH swain bot? With new scalings Q hurts a lot
The description on Fimbulwinter says its "melee only" but what I saw was a Sterak's like effect, does this mean Swain is considered melee and not range? What does that make Urgot?
maybe if you are playing into sth really tanky that you dont think think you can kill in lane, but still not worth it since you are not rushing fimble winter anyways
Husum please make an Aram Swain guide! It's actually difficult to figure out what is optimal to build becasue of the aram specific nerfs (also heard the damage nerfs don't apply to item damage). Would love for you to get into it!
Pro tip from a 6 seasonal Challenger, tear is a key item to pickup much earlier, especially against Yone, because if you fall behind even a little he will have botrk before you can start snowballing properly, better players will punish you for rushing rylais and bait out your spells much more effectively, but especially if you get ganked or bullied by certain champs, you want that mana earlier so you can actually trade back without having to back more often. HP and survivability will not help you stand a lane against 3 man ganks or coordinated baits, especially if you run out of mana in the most crucial moments. (Which happens to Faker btw as well) the early stacking will make it worth it and overall you might want to pickup tear on more champs in general as a "consumable" tear has a high resell value which effectively means you lose 120 gold to have 2-3x your mana early game which is especially good for ADCs and Supports. This might sound a lot but keep in mind how much a healthpot is and that you buy it anyway way often. Having that much mana early on for the cost of 120 gold plus the possibility to upgrade it is worth far more than for example oldschool mana potions. (Thats why they were removed btw) Also the healing on Doran's still doesn't work properly (especially on the Aram version :^) 200 f*cking years of incompetence)
it dosent? This build core is 5000g (rylai + fimbul) and most other normal cores are 5900-5400g (blackfire + rylai/cosmic) So no not at all you get there faster if you are looking for resistances after core items
so wehn i do the exact same build that i thought of it myself i get questionmarked but if the 1000 lp does it nobody bats an eye, (jokes aside great video now i can prove the build is broken)
Have a nice day! Hope you are learning something
Always a nice day when husum uploads
u da goat 💜
Fimbulwinter unique passive doesn’t work with ranged, why build it if you said swain is dependent on item passives?
@@virtuerse It activates when i land E, read the passive again
@@HusumLOL awesome thank you! I was wondering why this was so popular.
this build is blue
dabu dee dabu die

Good luck Mr Zoom you got this!
With Merc's you litteraly made a Skype Swain Build (I can't simplify the build's name due to unforseen reasons)

i mean sure, do what works for you, i like my W maxed first

i just wanted to lol
@@HusumLOL Ahhhh understandable, thank you.

We need more videos with Swana build
Also Rod of Ages would be a nice addition
+ 15 heal every Q
+ 20 heal every E
+ mana for damage taken
seems promising technology
rod of ages is like the worst item in the game
The bonus level is also really good with the new E
Nah, swain gets 15 heal from sucking off single minion, why would you pay so much for weak mana and heal item
Hi Husum
Hope you had a wonderfull christmas! I ve been trying this build mostly on top Lane, but with tear start and roa first item. Ive had games with 8000 damage shielded with filbulwinter. However i think we lack a bit of damage late game. Keep going crow lord!
Great video! Does this build also works on support Swain?
On support you can yes! but you can also skip fimbul because support gets mana regen and just go straight into armor/support items
I like cdr boots with this build because lack of cdr, nice to see different builds in your last 2 videos :D how about ludens shadowflame DH swain bot? With new scalings Q hurts a lot
Probably one of my favorite builds! I really like the blackfire cosmic too now.
The description on Fimbulwinter says its "melee only" but what I saw was a Sterak's like effect, does this mean Swain is considered melee and not range? What does that make Urgot?
No, the shield only procs on slows if you are melee
It still procs on CC (Swain Root), its just written so badly
What do you think about this build in support?
THEY CALLED ME A MAD MAN, FIMBULVINTER IS ACTUALLY VIABLE
i have a question why buy u not direct a tear?
too weak in lane 1v1
congrats for reach 1000 lp again husum !
Thanks Max :D
wind waker ost with pac world 2 ost feels nice
'' No way they kill me"
Botrk in them bushes
"ofc we won't be able to kill u, gaslight urself some more"
what do you think about tear instead of doran for this build?
Doran items op
Doran items really good yeah tear start will make you lack a lot of fighting power (ap and hp)
maybe if you are playing into sth really tanky that you dont think think you can kill in lane, but still not worth it since you are not rushing fimble winter anyways

Would love for you to get into it!
Sry man i dont really play aram and since its random its not like i get swain very often. Just build what you would normally also build
Aram is for fun mode, just play what you enjoy brother
I love you dude! You saved my league by teaching me swain❤ thank you so much
Happy to help!
Oh Fleshy (the rakan) is actually a pro, he plays for Vitality in LFL (french league).
Good support build ?
You should show every time your runes by beginning of the match, thanks
im a fan of u and ur swain gameplay!❤
This is my core build since the rework.

13:11 i'm literally casante
Always go this build when i go top.
Liandry Rilay Supremacy!!!
Husum the goat
Idk this delays resistances a lot. If they have max health damage you basically don’t have real bulk
it dosent? This build core is 5000g (rylai + fimbul) and most other normal cores are 5900-5400g (blackfire + rylai/cosmic) So no not at all you get there faster if you are looking for resistances after core items
"Nerf Swain pls raijot"
No Cam? 😢
not on my offstream games post commentary :p
The demon walked with E, cinema. Also, rod of ages video maybe?
silence, i am absorbing the knowledge of elder husum, a true father to us swain players 😌🤚
Managed to get here before the notification, bruh
Swain's blue balls build
The demon legit ten steps ahead for making blackfire on swain meta so he can make a video about rylais being underrated 😂
legit 10 steps ahead
Heartsteel swain when?
already did
so wehn i do the exact same build that i thought of it myself i get questionmarked but if the 1000 lp does it nobody bats an eye, (jokes aside great video now i can prove the build is broken)
YOOOO its DARIUS XYZ
I prefer to go to Liandry first
fimbulwinter is underrated*
My swain in low diamond built this and went 0/8
