How to effectively Pvp as Summoner

[haniexid]

How to effectively PvP as a Summoner? When I face my opponent, I usually try to:

TAB (make cat attack), Rosethorn (1), Needles (F), Doom and Bloom (F). I also usually try to use LMB and RMB repetitively.

 

Is there some of a particular combo or start off sequence? Other classes just have combos but for us seems difficult.

 

Tips appreciated. Want to get better in PvP and have us shine!

bad try at trolling

[haniexid]

If you have nothing better to say, don't come in here and be a jerk. How am I trolling? You know the definition?

 

I've provided some information on how I try to approach PvPing against opponents. 

I want to get better and needed some help. What's the big deal? Exposure of many secrets?

I would like to know also.

 

Usually I spam everything without even thinking, but I also save my cat's CCs for situations when I get grappled or dazed. Very handful and life saving. I had some issues with Warlocks, though. Didn't play against a decent one, because those I played against always wasted their escapes when my cat used CC. Easy to just knock them down after and grapple. :v

i learn in the arena. slowly. i menage to get plat for a day . and im still gold for a month .

but now the problem is vs who . 90% my matches are vs destro-bd-sin .

way way too much from this chars in the arena .

the only way for self learning will be to make chars and see how the skills work .

cus i cant find a good guide for pvp . or any guide .

 

see this. may have some info .

Spam everything without thinking is the way to go! Except against Destro, then you have to use Tab Escape when they Fury, but thats it. c:
Summoner is a really hard class to play Kappa. And I am not trolling, you cant really go wrong with spamming everything. There is a reason why everyone hates Summoners.

I played few matches today and actually had to come up with tactics against certain classes. Such wow. Summoner is not a braindead class as some players claim. I like it, though. So far only KFMs give me cancer. xP

Platinum summoner here~

 

I could write pagelong guide about summoner pvp.

 

1) Save your escapes and use them at according to their threath value.

2) Don´t burn all your skills at the same time. Use 1 cc at a time, so you force the opponent to use more escapes.

3) Learn other classes skills, also cooldown timings and skill lengths. 

4) Seed shroud is your best friend.

5) Beckon is hugely underrated. (iframe and offensive skill)
