Cyclops's durability comes from Concentrated Energy. That is why he received a nerf in the spell vamp granted by items (reduced into half of the original %) because he is too strong with his spammable skills.
Tbh that nerf barely did anything, Concentrated Energy also gave Cyclops 700 HP, while his base HP is already higher than most mages. And with the Negative Armor by Genius Wand, Cyclops is secretly meta. He's more effective as a jungler rather than a mage or side too tbh. Once he snowballs it's going to be hard to stop him.
@@shinhikaru yep. You're definitely correct with this one mate. Looking at Elgin's gameplay, I cant help but feel "whut?" as his build is putting Concentrated Energy as optional item which I think, must be a core item for Cyclops. Each player has his own style of playing. Indeed. 😇
@@biladd8360 I'd say Concentrated Energy is better for the second core item if Cyclops is played as a Jungler, because of the new Jungle adjustment where more HP = more Damage for creeps. Concentrated Energy is also a sustain item for Cyclops since he's technically played by close range. But you're right tho, Concentrated Energy is Cyclops' Core Item.
Cyclops is one of my main heroes this season because he’s op when it comes to damage and cd reduction from his passive. I use him a lot as a mid laner or a side laner, I don’t like to use him as a jungler because I’m not used to it
cyclops damage is crazy in the late game, as long as the enemy is long range or semi melee. other than that hes pretty weak to backline killer due to almost no mobility. as long as you know how to position, he's pretty op
Me too. I main cyclops already long time ago, but then stop using him after he got nerfed. And started to use him again from last season. He might lack area damage but he still can deal a lot of damage with his passive. Enchanted talisman and concentrated energy is my main item for sustain. The rest build is depending on the situation.
Thats why her concentration energy its a signature item to sustain more long in a war,second skill have very good sync witn concentrate energy to replenish your life rapidly to full bar hp so u can always dance with the enemy hehe
Jawhead is one of the most annoying hero for me.....He builds attack, he can one combo and still be tanky as hell, he use tank build, he can still easily kill not only squishy. But other thought hero while still being a tank😂😂
4:46 Elgin : Even though I have this unique game today, I think Cyclops as a jungler is possible Betosky be like: Darling you have no idea, what's possible
unfortunately, i'm a bad jungler, so i always play him in midlane. when i rotate, i always keep his 2nd skill active to make sure i can secure kills since it's auto aim
As a Cyclops Main, I used 3 items that reduces CD namely, Magic Shoes, Enchanted Tailsman and Calamity Reaper/Lightning Truncheon/Fleeting Time because he's powerful when he has 45% CD Reduction Then I use Concentrated Energy for Lifesteal, And Genius Wand and Divine Glaive for Magic PEN for additional damage. I sometimes use defense items depending on the fight if they have many physical heroes I use physical defense items while Magic defense items when the enemy has many mages
I gotta try this build. I used to build Cyclops with full CD (45% - boots, talisman, lightning truncheon), concentrated energy, genius wand and ice queen wand.
I think concentrated energy is a core item for cyclops since his skills is low cooldown he can just spam it and he will just regen and regen, ive used it in my games and its really helpful, makes it even better because cyclops owns it (i think)
Finally, kuya Elgin uploaded a video like this. I've been using Cyclops the jungler way since January 2021 but no one ever believed me that it's possible. Salamat, kuya Elgin!
My favorite. I mained him when I started S15 then when I saw betosky use him, I loved the little guy even more, esp as jungler. My go-to jungler or mage.
I play cyclops jungler like every match with him, ppl assume im trolling even when i show im supreme1 its ridiculous. he's been one of my fav junglers since s16
And i use to plus that sustain with ice queen wand to,the slow effect its very useful for in out life harvest from enemy hehe also can slow down agile assasin,mm
Oh my gosh Elgin hahaha! I got his skin on second roll hahaha! I love Cyclops! I never use him as a jungler though but my friend uses him as such and it was rather effective especially with the purple buff and the lithowanderer which kind of resolve his excessive mana consumption.
Cyclops is good at jungling but he needs to be assisted by a tank if he is getting invaded because he can't defend himself at the early game because he will run out of mana if he tries to defend it.
Nice. I solo main cyclops from last season (till mythic glory) and this. Same like you said i also not used being a jungler if there is no good tank around. He doesn't have a escape skill and squish early game makes him hard to jungle without proper support. My build is defensive with dominance Ice + Oracle/Brute force. Im an aggressive player and always want my spells to be in the enemy's face.
I played rg just now. We didn’t have a jungler at first so i picked Cyclops. I was planning to play the jungler role (tho i’m not very good at using assasins). Then, one teammate said she can jungle using Miya so i let him. We lost but i was MVP and all my teammates had bronze medals only. Perhaps if i was the jungler, i could have carried the team better and won the game.
Since the update were cyclops was buffed I started using him. And he started to be my first main core in the game cous I realized his very buff dependent
I've been doing cyclops gold lane for a while now. He can fast clear wave and then snowball gank other lanes fast and then back to gold lane. Have a 84% wr this season with him.
Elgin, there is a trick to deal maximum damage of your 2nd skill to an enemy hero. All you have to do is basic attack on that certain enemy, and once you activated your 2nd skill, it won't affect the enemy minions nearby. Take it from a Cyclops Main. Have a Nice Day!!
like me :) this mayhem god made him my fav mage but i didnt know about that because mayhem cyc was funny af going 1v3~4 all the time and not thinking about the whole maximizing dmg
If you find yourself running out of mana with enchanted talisman, build an item that increases your mana pool. Enchanted talisma regens a percentage of your mana so the higher your mana pool, the better the effect of enchanted talisman. It regens 15% every 10 seconds so if you have 2000 mana, it gives you 300. If you increase mana to 3000, it gives 450.

To be honest, Cyclops is more effective as a Jungler rather than a normal Mage/Support/Sidelane. Once he snowballs it's going to be hard to stop him, and pretty much GG if the team has an early game hero, which can help him farm his items more efficiently. His HP is higher than most mages in the game, especially with Concentrated Energy, making him already tanky even with 1 defensive items. I don't understand why he's underrated to be honest.

Cyclop are a mage who can be jungle if got situation when nobody wont jungle,he a versatile fighter mage honestly
Concentrated energy is a must item for cyclops for survivability
ProTip: Concentrated Energy works so well with Cyclops because his Skill 2 and 3 are single target, giving you full spell vamp per hit.

Cyclops actually has a very insane sustainability even if you only build concentrated energy w/out def. items.
