Does TF really need this much sustain? You lose out on a ton of trading power by not opting for dorans ring.

I disagree with rushing archangel's staff, and having morellonomicon be a 5th item. Twisted fate reall doesn't have mana problems thanks to blue card, so I'd think that if anything, morellonomicon MIGHT be an okay buy on TF. Archangel's? Nope

Buther | Feast are literally two of the best masteries in the game. You're beating your head into a wall by not taking them.

Hello, my name is Gushis, you killed my father prepare to die and this is my CDR/PokeTwisted Fate guide. Twisted Fate is arguably the most badass human mage out thre, butI'm of course biased. Although Twisted Fate is not really meta right now, I hope thisguide can bring him back into SoloQ as a poke type champion. This is inspired by UOL'smid-laner PowerOfEvil's Varus, so a shoutout to him. This is my first guide ever, sofeedback is more than welcome. If you do leave feedback, it would be great if you couldpoint out what you liked and what you didn't really like. Without further ado, let's getinto the actual guide.

I don't nitpick matchups section too often, but at just a glance, I don't think katarina is as easy as you make her out to be. If she jumps on you when pick a card is on cooldown, you're in trouble.Also i'm pretty sure diana is a hard matchup, since her kill pressure post 6 is tremendous - "Be extra careful when she hits 6" Doesn't quite capture her kill potential on TF

Blue card will solve any mana problem TF has early. Why not just rush Luden's instead?

Okay, Reasonable enough.

I still really disagree with morellonomicon. Since TF deals so much emphasis on autoattacks, I feel like even something like nashor's tooth would be preferable to morellonomicon.Your explanations haven't done enough to sell t me that this is a viable build path. Do more to defend why this build path is preferable to the standard TF build path.

Watch your spelling here.

Expand on this more. EXACTLY how do you watch for your enemy jungler. You haven't suggested that your reader buy wards, so what do you do to know where your opponent's jungler is? How do you break down your opponent's playstyle to tell that their jungler is nearby?

'Watch his pathing' isn't specific enough. You need to teach your readers that when pick a card is on cooldown, they have to back off to avoid free harass from vladimir.

Well, they did pick TF, and your readers are relying on your guide to get them out of this pitfall. Saying, "Sorry," isn't going to help your readers win lane; Tell your reader to buy his own vision so that he doesn't have to rely on his teammates. Use pictures to showyour readers what a "safe position" is against a misery lane.

Show us an example of you catching an ADC out of position. Theres an art to catching people out of position, while not getting yourself caught. I want you to show your readers exactly what that balance is through example (pictures!!)

Show us examples of what are "opportunities to chunk catch someone", and other examples where your opponents are actuall safe and there isn't any playmaking t be made through teleporting.

I'd like you to go over how to position yourself in team fights. Twisted fate needs to be able to avoid getting flanked and instakilled by getting caught by a tank or an assassin, while still being able to autoattack as frequently as possible. Again, use pictures to teach through example.
