CoC vs CwC
Some leagues ago i tried an ice nova cast on crit build and it was awesome. Really liked it to use cyclone and cast a lot of spells. The build was expensive, but had good damage and made a lot of fun.
This league i was curious and tried to build something with cast while channeling. During lvling i recognised many restrictions. Actually im playing with lightning tendrils -> CwC -> shock nova and have reached about 2-3 million dps. Not much by the way. If we compare both gems cast while channeling and cast on crit, then CwC is less effective. Cast on Crit has in the awakend version 7% less spell damage and you can reduce the cooldown to trigger spells. Do get fast attack speed (cyclone) and high crit chance is relative simple. Cast while Channeling has in the awakened version 30% less damage and triggers all 0.3 seconds, which you cant get lower. You dont need fast attack speed or high cast speed, but you are limited to this. In my eyes CwC has a lot less potential for good builds then CoC. What are you guys thinking?

Both gems have different conditions, work in different setups and can achieve different goals.
You'd also have to look at cast when damage taken, cast when stunned, cast on melee kill if you were to compare them. Also you're not limited to the 0.3 triggerrate of cwc. You can lower the cd with cdr just like you lower it when using coc and you still have to take attack or cast speed into account. The main difference between these two supports is that coc essentially requires capped crit chance, capped accuracy and an actual hit has to occur. Cwc doesn't need this at all. |

Main issue I had when trying cwc is that its bad to play. This is likely subjective though. If you use a movement skill for cwc it may be better.
There may also be the issue that with cwc you can only trigger one spell per 0.3 sec - not 100% sure on that. Anyway coc does not have that issue. "I dont think so... No wonder it's lost, it's in the middle of the jungle!
