get E first. buy teardrop, toggle E while sitting at base until minions spawn. your teardrop is already at 100 bonus mana. enjoy the shortcut. i'm sure someone has posted about this already in this forum but it's a neat trick.

ha, cool ****

Did this for awhile until I realized its not needed. Spamming Q and recalling to refill mana will give you the same results. Also for the times I forgot to do either one I found that Karthus never really had any mana problems early on. That and the tear levels up very quick during the laning phase and nobody rushes an Embrace.

A better example would be Singed.

Is he even viable on Tt if so what build.
