Anyone use Baron?

Hi all, looking for a bit of advice please

99% of champs i pull go straight into the vault without me doing more than a quick glance at their kit.

But i just got baron and his skypiercer looks really nice.

I mostly do go second teams nowadays in defence and use a speed team with tormin to farm speed nuke teams on attack.

Although barons potential damage looks great, i am not convinced he will stay alive long enough to nuke, i have quick teams to beat all hard DT rotations so i am purely looking at arena.

Does anyone here use him? and have you gone the traditional route of savage/lethal? or gone for a stoneskin build to help him get his attack off?

Cheers

That is my best answer since I am not lucky enough to have.   You definitely want for tag, not sure if lethal/savage is better than stoneskin.  Obviously depends on team you plan to use him.

Grats on the pull!

Thanks :) and to be honest i am not sure how to best use, if i had nehkret it would be a different story.

Still it is nice to have a champ i want to build again :)

He is the single most avoided champ for me. He's the only one in the game that can flat-out oneshot my team.

Put him in a team with arb + acc up + cc, and you'll win just about every fight with him.

My arbiter is pretty slow compared to those around me and i long ago gave up on winning the speed race.

If i dont have a way to keep him alive and i lose the speed race, is he not just another free kill in defence?

Can see the use in offence against tanky shield teams

The reason speed teams "work" on defense is because people don't like trying to guess whether they'll win the speed race. However, a good go2nd team will demolish "most" speed nuke teams. Baron teams are the exception.
