Arrr, kit comparison

Respect th' foe's reliable threat

Track th' cooldown and range o' th' trick that starts their safest trade. Do nay treat this chart as a statistical counter claim.

Yer course

Use th' course ye prepared

Treat Vex as one part o' th' sea chart state. Their Jungler, nigh th' ship waves and which teammates can move determine whether th' same trade or rotation be seaworthy.

Arrr, static alternatives

Compare th' problem afore changing th' course

These choices be nay picked from live scores. Use one only after ye identify th' stated clash problem yourself.

Arrr, repeated basic attacks

Arrr, Only when enemy healing is deciding fights

Oblivion Orb

Arrr, Oblivion Orb supplies healing reduction without committing to a completed Morellonomicon. Skip both when healing is not the problem or an ally already covers your target reliably. Healing reduction does not reduce shields.

Arrr, Conditional component, not a core item. Complete Morellonomicon only when its stats and slot efficiency justify delaying another purchase.

Adapt th' course

What to do when th' battle changes

Judge th' whole course or sea chart state, nay only personal kills. Pick th' situation closest to th' present battle.

Even course

Keep th' clear th' deck moving and choose high-ship's intelligence plays

Pathing

Track opposing camps and course states instead o' forcing th' first aboard visible target.

Sea chart play

Trade sides o' th' sea chart when contesting would require weaker lanes to move first aboard.

Fights

Save fit fer th' captain's eye control fer th' foe who threatens yer carries or prize access.

Pings, movement and prizes

Rell Jungle sea chart course

Link each clear th' deck to th' next aboard informed decision. Pings should tell lanes where ye be pathing and whether th' crew be contesting or trading an prize.

Ahead

Arrr, turn tempo into controlled territory

Ping: Use On Me Way afore entering a course, Assist Me afore an prize and Peril when nigh th' ship lanes cannae move to an invade.
Course or gank: Gank when th' course has reach, damage and a seaworthy exit. Do nay wait beside a protected target while camps and th' next aboard prize disappear.
Prize: Establish vision wit' th' nearest taking th' victory course, keep Smite available and avoid chasing astern from th' prize after gaining control.

Even

Pick th' play wit' th' clearest ship's intelligence

Ping: Use On Me Way early enough fer th' course to prepare, Assist Me only when nigh th' ship lanes can move, and Retreat when th' contest has already become late.
Course or gank: Prefer a course wit' crowd control, damaged foes or a favourable wave. A visible foe be nay automatically a usable gank.
Prize: Inspect Mid and Bot priority afore Dragon, or Mid and Top afore Herald. Set a seaworthy entrance afore beginning th' prize.

Behind

Trade th' sea chart instead o' forcing recovery

Ping: Ping Retreat from lost contests, Peril on likely invades and On Me Way when covering a vulnerable course or remaining camp.
Course or gank: Counter-gank or lend a hand only when crewmates can survive until arrival. Repeated low-chance ganks deepen th' camp and level deficit.
Prize: If entry be unsafe, trade fer camps, a wave, vision or th' opposite prize. Keep Smite and crowd control fer a contest th' crew can actually reach.

Prize setup

Arrr, four calls, in order

Pings create a shared course; they do nay replace checking waves, vision and who can move.

1
Afore th' course
Decide which camps lead toward th' prize and ping th' nigh th' ship lanes afore they spend th' wave or recall timing.
2
Inspect priority
Confirm which nigh th' ship lanes can move first aboard. Do nay convert an isolated prize marker into a forced fight.
3
Arrr, control entry
Move wit' a teammate, sweep one entrance and keep Smite available afore committing damage to th' prize.
4
Arrr, finish or turn
Call whether th' crew be finishing, fighting or leaving. Mixed decisions be more booty perilous than either clear th' deck choice.

Later prizes: Repeat th' same process 'round later major prizes: handle nigh th' ship income, communicate th' course, enter through vision and agree on th' fight afore committing.

Arrr, keep preparing

Use th' champion chart or choose another foe
