Abilities upgrade priority
R > Q > E > LMB >RMB
Triangle > Square > Circle > R2 > R1
Early Game
In the early game,you should focus on clearing your jungle once and place your first Harvester. But always try to keep an eye on your lanes,if you see a good opportunity to gank,do it. If you can save an ally who is about to die,go save him!
Mid Game
You should focus on ganking and helping your teammates to do objectives. Clear the camps while roaming from lane to lane or when you come from the base. In teamfights,you have 2 options,you can use your ult to knock some enemies away so you will fight 2v3 or whatever,or you protect your allies by knocking the melee enemies away from them,your is always the key in each teamfight,it decides how you will fight.
Late Game
Focus on objectives,black and "OP BUFF". you can easily do them alone,but be aware of the enemy,place a ward if you can or ask a teammate to do so for you if you don´t know where the enemy is.
With the buffs on you,focus on objectives again.
Card Build
Sevarog is a late game champion,you always have to remember that! You can perfectly play him as a full tank,but with the insane gank potential and his skills,i prefer to go for some Damage combined with Tankiness.
You can clear the camps fast and easily,your ganks are super strong and you will be tanky enough in the late game.
Core Cards are always Health,Physical Damage and Attack Speed.
We have 1 Card with Armor and 1 with Magic resistance,combined,you are the Lord of the field!
Jungling
Important notes:
Small Camps spawn at 1:30
Red & Blue Buff spawns at 2:30
Harvester spawns at 3:00
Always activate travel mode (shift) between camps or before you gank!
Always use your Health Potion!
Always collect the Harvesters when you go back to the jungle
We will start at the small camp, you will need 8 hits for it,4 hits per minion then use Siphon on both of them to gain your first souls. We go right next to the second small camp and do the same,you will level up and take E/Circle, then we go to the red buff, E/Circle the camp, Q/Square them,then attack the Big one constantly. After your first buff,go to the Harvester and recall on it,it will be build before you recall, buy your first Card.I prefer Bloodsoaked Armor since it gives you armor and attack speed,it increases your clear time and sustain,perfect! After your first recall,go right to the other side of the jungle and build the second Harvester. Take the blue buff and you will level up again and you will only need 3 hits per minion of the small camps. After that,you should do your first gank (if you didn´t do one yet). If the gank is a sucess,try to get the Harvester on the side too!
Laning
We don´t lane,we jungle! But if we hold a lane,don´t forget to last hit and stack some souls ;)
Ganking/Abilities Combos
Engaging an enemy from far away : RMB/R2 to dash closer,E/Circle to place the root,Q/Square and then LMB/R2 to attack
Engaging an enemy from behind/close to you: E/Circle to root him, R/Triangle to knock him to your team,away from his teammates/tower,or even under your tower for maximum Damage and then just go all in with Q/Square and LMB/R2
Running away: E/Circle infront of your enemy,so he has to stop,walk around or he will be rooted,only use your RMB if you are sure that you will get out of his range,otherwise keep it to dodge skill shots! If they come too close and you can´t get away,use your Colosal Blow R/Triangle
If you play with Bounty Stalker,don´t forget to activate it when you gank to maximize your Damage!
