My Guide Tells You...

Great! How does this all work, anyway? Each chapter contains a coding preview so you can see the finished copy, and a spoiler for the actual coding. Copy, paste, edit, repeat. Studying the code I've provided should give you a solid foundation as to how the coding here at MobaFire works. If you appreciate my hard work, please give my guide a +1 and drop a comment :) - jhoijhoi, ⤠As of October 2017, I have removed redundant or otherwise outdated coding techniques/coding commands/coding clusters. As of December 2018, Ashe takes pride of place over Karthus, but you can check out the old Wriggly Lantrine routine here. |

- Try and only use your Frost Shot when you are attacking enemy heroes, buffs, dragon.
- Turn on Frost Shot when you are chasing or running away. Turning around and smacking them with 1 auto-attack will slow them right down.
- Always have Frost Shot toggled on during team fights.

Item Upgrades - jhoijhoi
Berserker's Greaves > ATTACK SPEED This is the cheapest attack speed item in the game. In Season Two, it was custom to buy this item on first recall, or as soon as possible. In Season Three, upgraded boots are not as necessary, so it is acceptable to delay this purchase. Mercury's Treads > TENACITY There are games when you are being caught out by CC and you haven't taken Cleanse for whatever reason, or if you're getting destroyed by ability power damage. Grab these boots instead of Berserker's Greaves for the tenacity and magic resist. |

Champion Match-Up Description - jhoijhoi
So you're up against Ashe. Be wary of her first hit guaranteed critical strike when coming to lane; that coupled with a Volley to the face can easily half health you. Ensure you are not caught out of position, as Frost Shot will cripple your chances of escape. Remember that she can scout brushes from a distance with Hawkshot, foiling ganks. Lastly, try and use your Flash after she has used ECA; ECA is her only form of CC, so escaping it can often mean escape if you Flash out of range of her autos. |

Champion Description - Hoodstomp
FAQ - jhoijhoi
Q:
What Summoner Spells should I take? |
A: Flash, Cleanse, Ignite, Exhaust and Heal are the best defensive/offensive Summoner Spells on Ashe, and it's up to personal preference on which you'd rather get. If you are not yet level 12, pick up Ghost and Heal. |
Q:
Why is Ashe a viable choice? |
A: In ranked play, she is frequently chosen due to her powerful initiate, her utility in terms of Hawkshot, and the crippling slow she provides when chasing. She is good at low elo, but very difficult to play correctly at high elo. She needs a team that will work with her and carry her until she can carry the team. |

What Now?
The Next Step |
... except it isn't what you expected. After those countless hours reading this guide, writing the content and then squeezing all that written stuff into coding, your first vote is a downvote (this won't happen to everyone, in fact, maybe it's your 3rd vote that is a downvote... maybe it's your 5th vote). The first thing to do is to close your browser. Do not reply directly after reading this downvote. Wait a few minutes, go have an icecream, pluck your eyebrows, pwn some bots in a Co-Op vs AI game - whatever. After you have cooled down, reopen your browser. Read the comment again, and try to read it from their perspective. For example, this could be their comment:
Whoooooah. Hold your horses. Don't get mad! Yes, this is your baby, your pride and joy, and they shat all over it. Don't sweat it. Calm down and read it again, actually read it. Let's go over their points. |
"I don't like this guide!" | Unfortunately there is nothing you can do about comments like these. If the voter doesn't like the guide, then they don't like the guide. It does not matter if all the pros do exactly what you've outlined in the guide. It does not matter if you have a 99% win rate with the set-up explained in your guide. No amount of facts in the world will change someone's opinion. They just didn't like the guide. Oh well, that's their loss, isn't it? You'll have to ignore this part and look for the constructive criticism in their comment. |
"Why would you EVER jungle Ashe?! That's just stupid." |
First consider their comment - even if the guide addresses everything in the comment, it's polite to respond in a civil tone and to demonstrate that you are invested in your guide:
All you're doing is replying to their comments in the most civil way possible. By replying this way, you're showing other viewers that you can handle criticism, and that you can reason effectively about the decisions you have made in your guide. Remember, you're a brand; replying to comments in guides is part of your marketability and networking that is essential to a successful guide. If you reply to comments in a friendly and informative manner, you could add your reply to a FAQ section of your guide, and actually CREDIT the voter. This will make him more likely to upvote, and probably answers some questions other people had anyway. Win win. |
"Even jungle Ashe needs proper jungle items so why the hell have you got Frozen Heart?! " |
Before you do anything else, have a look around at the other jungle guides - even if they're not for jungle Ashe, you'll gain a good understanding of jungle items and purchases. Then have a quick look at Ashe-specific guides on this site. Do any of those guides recommend Frozen Heart on Ashe? No? Well, have a quick think, and reconsider your item choices. If yes, defend your choice with coherent comments that go beyond something like, "It gives armour". Telling the reader the stats of an item is useless because tool-tip information is easily accessible. Readers want to know why an item is chosen, what it can be used for etc. For instance, Statikk Shiv; everyone knows movement charges up the lightning proc on attack. Something a reader may not know is "you can finish off low-health enemies out of range by attacking a minion near them - the chain lightning may reach them and kill them" - this is valuable knowledge. But most of all, make sure your guide makes sense. In response to this comment, say something like, "I recommend Frozen Heart because" and then explain it. If you realise at this point that the item isn't the best first item for Jungle Ashe, discuss it with the reader: "I really would like to keep FH in the core build, but agree it could be built later. If I instead build a Machete upgrade first and Frozen Heart second, that might work better. What's your thoughts?" This reply will show you are willing to change your guide to reflect feedback, which invites other readers following Recent Activity on the front page to have a look at your guide and contribute their own ideas. |
"Also, your runes are just ****." |
Have a look at your runes. Defend them with your reasons. Then read their comment again, and consider it. Yes, Ashe does use mana and perhaps if you are always spamming your abilities, she'd need the mana regen. But consider it from the point of view of a person who plays AD carries and junglers and they're interested in your "ADC Jungle Ashe". When you are an AD carry, what do you do in lane? You tend to harass the enemy champions and attack speed helps you deal damage. In the jungle you need as much damage as you can get to clear camps. All in all, the voter's comment makes sense, doesn't it - you don't really need runes that provide you with mana regen, you need damage runes. And if you don't agree? Always answer civilly and defend/support your choices, "Ah, I can see your point! I could list alternative runes, though, thanks for the idea!" |
"I also couldn't read your guide because there were so many typos and leetspeek. " |
There really isn't any excuse for this. When you hit that "Publish" button, you are releasing your work to the public eye. Would you go outside without changing out of your PJ's? Would you hand in a draft as your final copy for an assignment? There's no excuse for laziness, run your guide through a spell check, put it into Microsoft Word, check for grammatical errors. Make your guide something people will WANT to read. Not something they have to struggle to understand. How can you be expected to be treated seriously when you are using numbers in words, neglecting grammar and committing atrocious spelling mistakes? Your response, "You're right, RandomUserOne. I submitted this around 3am in the morning because I was so eager to write a guide... I'll fix it up as soon as I get home from school :)" |
"And holy mackerel, this guide is so ugly, you totally failed coding school." | D: How could you get a comment like this? Didn't you read this guide and use some of the coding templates??? If for some reason you ever get a comment like this, it's a sign that you need to browse the forums, have a look at other guides, and learn more about BBCode. People are very visual; they do need some sort of aesthetic pleasantry on the screen to keep them entranced. Even the barest of BBCoding will satisfy your casual readers. Remember, whilst viability and content are important aspects of a guide so to is readability. BBCode really livens up a wall of text. For instance a simple Doran's Blade really breaks up the monotony of text. |
"Not just that, you're Bronze 5?!" | Leave your rank out of it unless you are of high elo. Unfortunately, revealing you are unranked or of low elo creates a self-fulfilling prophecy, wherein the reader will want to comment harshly or downvote due to your status. Don't reply to comments like this either. You don't want to be drawn into an unnecessary argument. |
"-1 for now." |
There are many ways respond to a comment - asking for more feedback is a yes; thanking the voter for reading is a nice touch; giving a brief summary of your guide can be beneficial. Just remember that your comment could possibly be the last thing that will be read. So leave a good impression. ALWAYS RESPECT THE OPINIONS OF YOUR VOTERS. Full stop, the end. They gave you a -1, don't worry about it. If your guide is good enough, you will receive positive votes that counter this one. Or a Knight in Shining Armor will swoop in on his white horse. And they said "for now". If you're lucky, they'll check back, see that you've commented nicely, and change their vote. If after a week they haven't replied, feel free to send them a friendly PM. Be civil in your PM.

Beyond the 1st Vote
More Stuff You Can Do
If you've followed everything I've said so far, you're well on your way to making your guide here at MobaFire a success. As an experienced guide writer, I have encountered every possible problem related to guide success, and I've developed solutions to counter most of them. If you're serious about guide writing, these last few paragraphs will set you a level higher than the average guide author. Are you ready?

Utilising the Q&A Tool
Asking for Reviews
I strongly suggest visiting the Build & Guide Discussion forum and have a look for reviewing services. Follow the prompts in the thread and await the feedback. Don't request a review in multiple places at once - you'll likely get the same comments, so it's better to get one review, improve your guide, and then go to another shop. AS ALWAYS, read the rules of the forum before you post. |
Coding Services
This guide is chock-a-block full of coding templates and ideas. It's fair to say that many of the competent guide authors of today at MobaFire started with some of these humble templates. If you are after some unique coding clusters, you can find them in the Build & Guide Discussion forum; you can request certain coding ideas from MobaFire members who design coding clusters in their spare time. You will still need to be able to understand basic coding to implement their creations, though! Another excellent service is James' Coding Service. |
Utilising the Q&A Tool
This can be done before you release your guide so that you know your guide content is on the right track. You can either browse the Q&A page for previous questions and how they've been answered, or you can ask your own targeted questions. For instance, this is a question I asked a long time ago regarding my Nasus guide and the introduction of a new item: "Iceborn Gauntlet or Trinity Force on Nasus?" When you think about it, the uses of the Q&A tool are plenty; ask about runes, masteries, skilling order, laning partners etc. Don't spam the tool though! |
Conclusion
That's all she wrote... Good luck and god speed with your guide writing in the future! - jhoijhoi ⤠|
