 What's up everybody I'm the Mangus, you were awesome today on playing Countess aka Beatrice. I've always admired good Countess players, but to be honest, I played her once in Legacy Paragon and performed so poorly that I just never touched her again. I decided on a whim to give her a go in Over Prime and ended up really enjoying her. I'm sure I did millions of things wrong with her though, so feel free to let me know how to improve in the comments. Let's take a quick look at her abilities. Her Q teleports you to a target and deals damage, you leave an afterimage behind and reactivating this returns you to the image. Her E is a high damage point of origin AoE, her right mouse button is an AoE around you that lifesteals if you get a kill with it, and her ultimate lets you scream in somebody's face and stab them with your swords. This stuns the target of course. What I did good this match, I had a plan to deal with Gideon and I think I executed it well. I selected squishy targets for elimination in team fights, and I did my best to protect our orb carrier. Things I did poorly, I had very slow rotations this time around, I didn't use my R&B well so my lane sustain just wasn't great, and I think I screwed up my ability leveling order let me know. As usual with my videos there will be a condensed version and a full gameplay version, you can use the timestamps to skip around. This time I'm going to just full on edit out everything in the condensed version, no music and no fast-forwarding, I'm just gonna skip. I've grouped up this game with Jellies, Convay, Viking Jedi, and OSK Gaming, all of which will be linked below. Like the video if you enjoy it, subscribe for updates on all of the Paragon remakes, but for now let's play some Countess. We're up against the Gideon so the game plan with Countess is to Shadow Slip through his abilities, kind of be deceptive, and bait out his abilities just like we did right there so that he misses them and then we could get on him to do damage. I'm leveling up her Q first, I'm sure that's wrong, but I'm doing it because the the previous matches I played with Countess it seemed like it was the one an incredibly long cooldown and I wanted to be able to Shadow Slip as much as possible. We get some good damage in on Gideon and Shadow Slip back out before he could hit us with his abilities. That's what I wanted to do, that was the game plan for this game. I'm thinking E might be the best thing to actually level up first. Here comes Kalari. Unfortunately I didn't use, I didn't even use my, well I did use my blank, okay I did use my blank, I thought I completely forgot about my blank there, but nope. Kalari and Gideon just smashed me, I believe that's my only death of this game but still unfortunate. The first item we're building it to is the Elkima Blaster just because it's cheap, pin, and power. They're gonna turn on you guys, I'm not anywhere near there. No she's so low. I was a little late on my rotations this game, I guess it's because I was not comfortable on Countess, but as always when Jellies is at like five health that's when I come to save the day. He's bouncing back in between the portal with the Severog and they're on the other side I'm waiting for them to come to this side. Here comes Jellies and Severog's right on his hail and one dark tide is enough to take out that Severog. Oh he died, he died, Mango's got him. Oh, wait where is, oh did he teleport back first before you? Yeah he did, he teleported and Mango's got here. Gideon's running pretty low on mana, I mean he's got the health advantage on me but mana is what matters in a mid lane battle. He activates his ultimate which if he would have jumped in the air a little bit higher to where I couldn't have reached him he would have been safe with that ultimate and he probably would have killed me but no he did it on the ground which yeah I was able to just right into him interrupt his ultimate and kill him. Now even before the tournament we were doing this strategy of trying to take a very early prime orb. Now after the tournament we started using the, what do you call it, the Takima gemstone of abundance? No, I forget what it's called. It's the one, it's the smite item, the the jungler smite item. We would all back grab the smite item and take this thing down even faster and even earlier but we did not quite have the strategy down by this point but it still still works out pretty well for us. We got that really easily. Jelly does have the prime though and he's getting stalked by Kalari but Kalari absolutely no match for me right now. If people just didn't seem to realize how weak that the prime guardian was like you didn't need the the smite items to take him down. You could just a solid rotate and you could take this thing really really early and because we had Ulug or Narbash, we're all at max health. His heal was ridiculous. There were so many ridiculous parts of over prime. Now I want to take out this Sparrow if I can. Sparrow always take out the ADC first if at all possible and that was very very possible right there and we have we have the dunk already. Now I'm getting hit by, I couldn't hit him because he was a little bit too high but we were able to dash out using our blink and I don't know why I shadow slept right there. Probably just that fingered to you. There's no way they can stop that. They screwed up. We need to go back to the tower. Yeah that's worth me dying for so I'm going to steal one of our jungle camps. How much health does that thing have? Nice to hit down. We can leave. They don't need to stay. Yep. They wasted an ult also. The problem that OSK was referring to is physical armor out scales physical damage so this Seb was building a ton of physical armor and giving him problems but as you can see here he was not building any magical armor so we were able to just melt right through it. We did not. We did not go on her. I'm dead. Oh man goose let's go. Man goose left this team. Get him. Get him. Get him. Get him. Come from behind again. Dammit I can't teleport in. Fuck. Which way did you mean by left? I was trying to go on Revenant. One of the changes I think they need to make, I think these walls need to go down once you take the inhibitor next to them because oh my god like we were so separated right here and we couldn't, like you can't easily rotate unless you go all the way around this little peninsula in the lane. My abilities just aren't quite long enough to reach these guys unfortunately but yeah that wall gets super annoying because you can, now we're going in for our second shot at prime. Remember this thing when you dunk it it gets exponentially stronger. The shockwave that emanates from the landing. Again a lot of people didn't seem to realize that just dunking the prime deals damage to enemies, minions and towers. And it increases, it's 20% of the prime guardian's max health and that increases by 20% every time so it's, if we dunk it this time it's going to be 40% of its max health as damage to every enemy on the map including the core as long as there's an in head down. Just let the side lane just do everything. There's definitely there. If you want to wait just a little bit I'm almost there. Or go in. I'm hanging back right here because I really want to target the Gideon and the Sparrow and Sparrow notices me unfortunately but we've got our Narbash halting in on her and she goes down quite easily. Cosmos almost got me but we ended up taking him down as well and we get the dunk. So I almost waited a little too long right there but I don't know, Countess players seem to live on the edge and I was kind of living on the edge right there. Maybe I did good, I don't know. And that's going to be game. There's no way they can defend against that prime guardian attacking their core. Let me know what you, any comments, any advice on how to play Countess, Beatrice, whatever. Like I said I haven't touched her since Legacy Paragon but she is really fun. I might start picking her up in Fault. Yeah, just a really enjoyable hero. Alright, Narbash and Sparrow. Narbash won't be able to thunk me fast enough so we just go on Sparrow and I gank. Got it. And I can dodge his thunk with my dash anyway. What is uh... And we're going to start this match out like we do. Every match by helping our jungler get the red buff. So notice this time though I was kind of bouncing around in between the shadow well and the red buff. That was to make sure I didn't get invaded and baited a few times during the match. And we're up against the Gideon so the game plan with Countess is to Shadow Slip through his abilities kind of be deceptive and bait out his abilities just like we did right there so that he misses them and then we could get on him to do damage. Nope, I'm not mistaken. I'm no Countess expert. But Shadow Slip used to just straight up execute a minion and you could only get the health regen for her if you used your right-click, her spin, her little spin of death to get regen off of the minions. I'm not sure how it works and it would probably be perfectly honest but I know that Shadow Slipping does not execute minions anymore which it would have been nice to have. Nice job. Thank you. I have two pecs and I'll use my blank. I'm leveling up her Q first, I'm sure that's wrong but I'm doing it because the previous matches I played with Countess it seemed like it was on an incredibly long cooldown and I wanted to be able to Shadow Slip as much as possible. We'll get some good damage in on Gideon and Shadow Slip back out before he can hit us with his abilities. That's what I wanted to do. That was the game plan for this game. I'm thinking E might be the best thing to actually level up first. Here comes Kalari. Unfortunately, I didn't use my blank. Okay, I did use my blank. I thought I completely forgot about my blank there but nope, Kalari and Gideon just smashed me. I believe that's my only death of this game but still unfortunate. The first item we're building it to is the Elkima Blaster just because it's cheap, pin and power. You can let them push out. I'm pretty decent on Health and Mana so unless you want to just go back and get mana that's fine too. Let's just plan to go back and heal on that too. You're fine. Yeah, I'm probably fine with my mana right now. This also lets me get my award back. I'll probably go down and drop it. There's a Kalari in the jungle here. They're gonna start on you guys. I'm not anywhere near there. No, she's still low. He missed 30 seconds on life. He's got no mana. I feel like we just kill this if we can. I'm gonna get him. Good job. Good job. They're Kalari, yep. Now I'm gonna award, I guess. Where's she going? She's coming for you OSK. They're Kalari's bomb coming for you. She's coming from behind you. Coming up behind her. I'm running. Here, just fight her. Sorry man. I should have EED, my bad. Easy kill for you though. Should be a double actually. Oh no. He doesn't have flash though. You can run. Yeah, I just...invised. It was nice. I was a little late on my rotations this game. I guess it's because I was not comfortable on counters. But as always, when Jellies is at like 5 health, that's when I come to save the day. He's bouncing back in between the portal with the Severog, and they're on the other side. I'm waiting for them to come to this side. Here comes Jellie, and Severog's right on his tail. And one dark tide is enough to take out that Severog. He's still down there though, so we gotta be careful. Oh, he died. He died. Manga's got him. Oh. Wait, where is... An allied tower is under attack. Oh, did he teleport back first before you? Yeah, he did. He teleported when Manga's got here. Got it. Okay. Cause I definitely saw him down there. What do you think? We got juice for the 7 minute? Uh, not quite 7 minute. We'll get black and then run over. Yeah. Alright. Let's go black, guys. I'll recall after black. Yep. I mean, they know it should be able to get 6 and kill. Yeah, they're gonna see us right here. I have smite for it. Come, maybe you just wanna come and... Oh, are they gonna... I'm on my way. I haven't worded so well now. Go ahead and start. I'm on my way. You make that sound sick. Now we have Countess's ultimate, which is always just extremely dangerous in any fight. It seems to not really matter how... how leveled up she is. If she's ahead, this thing will just delete people, but even at this level, um, yeah, Gideon wants to go part of it. Actually, I'm gonna go get the lead. Okay. They're missing, right? Yeah. Careful left, I guess. Oh, she's back. Amazing. They're both super low, though. Yeah, they are. Gideon's run pretty low on mana. I mean, he's got the health advantage on me, but mana is what matters in a mid lane battle. He activates his ultimate, which, if he would have jumped in the air a little bit higher to where I couldn't have reached him, he would have been safe with that ultimate, and he probably would have killed me, but, uh, no, he did it on the ground, which, uh, um, yeah, I was able to just ult right into him, interrupt his ultimate and kill him. All right, let's reset and go for it. What the heck? How did she kill him? Probably piercing. Dude. He hit me with two stuns, but under turret. They'll expect you to be backing because you died. So, Paris, do you want to come back Yep, I'm hoping they didn't see my recall, but we'll see. They'll see the beam in the sky if they're paying attention. Okay, that was behind a little bit. Like, behind a hill or something. I'm so annoyed about that. All right, we'll leave one on the body. Almost there. Oh, here's Kalari. Did we take their long way? Yep, I'm running into the jungle now. My ult's back up with the stun. All right, Maurice is looking at us. Maybe we kill him, too. Yeah, I'm running in. All right, let's go. Let's start it. Now, even before the tournament, we were doing this strategy of trying to take a very early prime orb. Now, after the tournament, we started using the, what do you call it? The Takima gemstone of abundance? No, I forget what it's called. It's the smite item. The jungler smite item. We would all back grab the smite item even earlier, but we did not quite have the strategy down by this point, but it still works out pretty well for us. We got that really easily. Jelly does have the prime, though, and he's getting stalked by Kalari, but Kalari, absolutely no match for me right now. People just didn't seem to realize how weak the prime guardian was. You didn't need the smite items to take him down. You could just solid rotate and you could take this thing really, really early. And because we had Ulug or Narbash, we're all at max health. His heal was ridiculous. There were so many ridiculous parts of over prime. Now, I want to take out this sparrow if I can. Always take out the ADC first if at all possible, and that was very, very possible right there. And we have the dunk. Already. Now, I'm getting hit by... I couldn't hit him because he was a little bit too high, but we were able to dash out using our blink. And I don't know why I shadow slipped right there. Probably just that fingered Q. There's no way they can stop that. They screwed up. We did go back to the so... I'm going to steal one of our jungle camps. How much health does that thing have? We can leave. No need to stay. They wasted an ult also. Now, if you take that prime orb guardian, as soon as it spawns, the enemy team has zero chance of bringing it down. But we took it fairly late into this game, so they were actually able to kill it before it took their core, which is good because I'm going to be honest with you guys, it gets a little boring to win every game sub 10 minutes because for a strat that is just stupidly unbeatable, we'll discuss that strat more later on. Don't die, guys. Pressure in mid. I'm going to pressure left again. Nice. I've got an Arbash on me. Let's kill it. I grabbed the enemy red buff, so she's not going to have it. Nice job, dude. Let's go. I was just unfortunate timing by her. Arbash was mid by the way. He's chasing. Ah, he got me because I couldn't smite because I was stunned. I'm going to go ahead and finish off our Akima Blaster and get the Akima Energy amplifier, I think it's called. Everybody just called it the bunny. This thing gives you a huge chunk of magic power and it gives you a percentage increase of magic power, so this thing just it's a huge chunk of power. Once you get this thing, it's a pretty big spike. Dude, how do I have a is he really just that strong? Yeah, he's pretty strong. He gets surprisingly strong. Akima Black is up. Yep. I think we picked this character first, yeah. Since you're still pretty far away. There's the, I'm three levels up and I have an item over him. Did he knock you in a turret or anything like that? No, he just knocked me away. The turret was gone. Oh, I have no answer for you. We don't have any vision for Khlari, but the board. That was so strange. The problem that OSK was referring to is physical armor outscales physical damage, so this sub was building a ton of physical armor and giving him problems, but as you can see here, he was not building any magical armor, so we were able to just melt right through it. 1v1s or something? Cause he just got melt right there. Wait, does Beatrice do magic damage? She does. Okay, that's probably one of those. Oh, she is. Alright, we're on our way. Oh, you're pretty far away. I'm still coming. Just in case multiple show that go. Do you win the 1v1? Do you win the 1v1? Oh, watch out, no rash. What the heck? Oh, she stepped up in front of an r-bash. Thank you, boys. Do I get in him here? I think I might get in him here. We're coming. That's good because we have mid lane pushing hard. Yeah, in-hebs down. Go on her, go on her, go on her. Oh, you're over there. I was like, who? I was like, who? Oh, she got me. Ow, that hurt me. We did not, we did not go on her. I'm dead. Oh, Mingus, let's go. Mingus left this team. Get him, get him, get him. Come from behind again. Dammit, I can't teleport in. Can we go left? Which way did you mean by left? I was trying to go on Revenant, my bad. One of the changes I think they need to make, I think these walls need to go down once you take the inhibitor next to them because, oh my god, we were so separated right here and you can't easily rotate unless you go all the way around this little peninsula in the lane. My abilities just aren't quite long enough to reach these guys, unfortunately, but that wall gets super annoying because it just seems like it would go down, right? It just seems like it would go down. I know they were there in Paragon, but I'm not sure how they functioned in Paragon. I don't know if they ever went down or if they just stayed up the entire time. I'm pretty sure they went down because I remember juicing people with Decker through those walls. I don't know, I don't know. Yeah. Poor might end it. Minions themselves might just end it. All right, well, let's start this bad boy up. I'm coming. I'm pretty low, but I will assist. Now we're going in for our second shot at Prime. Remember this thing, when you dunk it, it gets exponentially stronger. The shock wave that emanates from the landing. Again, a lot of people didn't seem to realize that just dunking the Prime deals damage to enemies, minions and towers and it increases. It's 20% of the audience max health and that increases by 20% every time. So if we dunk it this time, it's going to be 40% of its max health as damage to every enemy on the map including the core as long as there's an in head down. There's nobody currently on right, the minions can see. They're a little bit behind. I have wards, they're probably... They're just letting Solo side push in. They want to stop us. Yeah, I mean we could just like just let the side lane just do everything. They're already at base. They're definitely there. If you want to wait just a little bit, I'm almost there. Or go in. I'm hanging back right here because I really want to target the Gideon and the Sparrow and Sparrow notices me, unfortunately. We've got our Narbash ulting in on her and she goes down quite easily. Cosmos almost got me, taking him down as well. And we get the Dunk. So I almost waited a little too long right there, but I don't know. Countless players seem to live on the edge and I was kind of living on the edge right there. Maybe I did good. I don't know. We got minions to take the inhib. Yeah, we got minions and chance. We almost have the chance. There we go. You're taking damage? Yeah, they're slow. And that's going to be game. And that's that Prime Guardian attack in their core. Let me know what you, any comments, any advice on how to play Countless, Beatrice, whatever. Like I said, I haven't touched her since Legacy Paragon, but she is really fun. I might start picking her up in Fault. Yeah, just a really enjoyable hero. But that is going to be it for this video, folks. And thanks for coming out. Man Goose! We'll see you in the next video.
