00:02We're back here today with another Champion Deep Dive.
00:05Today, we're talking about the Maker.
00:11So sit back and relax, because it's time to get into it.
00:25The Maker enters the contest with an altered mind,
00:28providing him immunity to Neuroshock and reversed controls.
00:33He also utilizes Tactical Evasion.
00:36When performing a well-timed block against a basic attack,
00:39he evades the attack instead.
00:41And when evading a basic attack,
00:43he inflicts a stun passive for three seconds,
00:46which is removed when the opponent is struck twice.
00:49When this stun would be inflicted,
00:51the stun and his evade go on a shared cooldown for eight seconds.
00:56Additionally, the Maker hates luck, so he doesn't land critical hits.
01:01All of his personal effects and the stun debuff from the Parry Mastery have 125% ability accuracy.
01:08The Maker is a master planner.
01:10He starts each quest with four persistent planning charges.
01:14These max out at eight stacks.
01:17On the pre-fight screen,
01:18you can choose up to three planned obsolescence passives to inflict on the opponent at the start of the fight.
01:24Each passive costs one charge and is inflicted even if a different champion enters the fight.
01:30His special power drain passive passively drains the indicated percentage of their remaining power when an affected champion activates a special.
01:38This is unaffected by ability accuracy modification.
01:43His instant siphon passive increases the potency of incoming damaging instant effects,
01:48as well as reduces the potency of outgoing damaging instant effects by the given potency.
01:54And his cowardice passive reduces special attack damage by the given potency.
02:00All of these passives have a 15 second duration and are refreshed when the opponent is knocked down.
02:06Their potencies are also halved if the attacker isn't a tech champion or one of the Maker's outgoing synergy partners.
02:14Additionally, their potency scales with the rarity of the Maker.
02:18If a different version of the passives are applied, only the strongest one will trigger.
02:24The Maker's teammates also help him progress his plans.
02:27For each fight he or his teammates win, he gains one planning charge the next time he enters a fight.
02:33Now, his heavy attacks do not add to his combo meter.
02:37The final hit pauses the planned obsolescence passives for 5 seconds and inflicts a heal block debuff for 8 seconds.
02:45Additionally, the final hit also deals a burst of instant plasma, dealing energy damage that is multiplied by his critical damage multiplier.
02:54Now, let's check out his special attacks.
02:57On activation of the special one, the Maker pulls a weapon from another dimension, deploying a plasma mine in front of himself.
03:08There can only be one on the field at a time, and if the opponent moves into the mine, it triggers, inflicting a burst of instant plasma, with damage scaling from his critical damage multiplier.
03:19But, as a defender, he only deals 1% of this damage.
03:25Additionally, when the plasma mine triggers, he inflicts a 10% suppression passive on the opponent for 30 seconds.
03:32These max out at 6 stacks.
03:34While suffering from one of the Maker's suppressions, the opponent's inflicted with a 75% power reroute passive, granting the Maker increased combat power rate based on how much he's lowering it by.
03:46For each rank in the Collar Tech Mastery, he gains an additional 3% combat power rate.
03:51The plasma mine needs to recharge after it triggers.
03:55This happens while the Maker is charging his heavy attack, and it recharges for a smaller amount when either champion is struck.
04:03With the special two, on activation, he removes the recharge on the plasma mine.
04:09And, if the opponent is not blocking, triggering the plasma mine during this attack overcharges it, increasing its base potency by 200%, plus an additional 40% for each personal suppression on the opponent.
04:24But, overcharging the mine also destroys it.
04:41The special three!
04:43The Maker re-triggers his selected planned obsolescence passes, and at the end of this attack, moves an existing plasma mine behind his opponent and empowers it for 12 seconds.
04:55Empowered plasma mines automatically recharge every .5 seconds.
05:00Now, let's check out his signature ability.
05:03When awakened, the Maker starts each fight with one special evade charge that is consumed to evade a hit during a special attack.
05:12This does not trigger during well-timed blocks, and he gains one extra charge for every 60 sig levels.
05:20He also gains a special evade charge when the plasma mine is triggered during his special attacks.
05:26Keep in mind, all special evade charges are removed when he's struck by a heavy attack.
05:32Additionally, when his tactical evasion stun fails to inflict or is removed before its duration expires, he inflicts a non-stacking energy vulnerability passive and gains stun immunity for 4 seconds.
05:46Now, let's take him out for a spin in the champion rotation.
05:50To begin, perform a well-timed block to trigger your tactical evade.
05:57While the opponent is stunned, dash in and immediately use your heavy attack to refresh your passives.
06:03Oh yeah, don't forget to place your pre-fight.
06:05In a normal fight, the instant siphon will be your best bet for extra damage.
06:10Build up to your special 1 while pushing the opponent against the wall.
06:14Then, launch to place your plasma mine.
06:17From here, try to get your opponent to trigger your mine.
06:21And, to recharge it, use your evade stun to buy some time to charge your heavy.
06:26While building to your special 2, try to set yourself up so your opponent will be pushed into the plasma mine with your attack when you launch it.
06:33Then, just watch that massive burst of plasma melt your opponent into pieces.
06:39If the opponent isn't already knocked out, just repeat this process until they are.
06:44Now, if you need some extra juice, you can go for your special 3 to empower your plasma mine to deal constant bursts of plasma damage.
06:52Which is perfect for taking on those larger health pools and beefing up those red numbers.
06:58And hey, don't forget about those powerful pre-fights before tackling some of those tough defenders.
07:03Make sure you plan ahead and use what you need before entering the fight so you can give the Maker the upper hand.
