Conditions:
- At least 1 Shepherd Emblem
- Guinsoo’s LeBlanc
- Access to level 9 and Sona
How to Play:
- Gameplan: Only play this when you have Shepherd Emblem as you need at least 1 to activate 7 Shepherd. Sona is also needed if you only have 1 Emblem so make sure you are able to go level 9. Prioritize Guinsoo’s LeBlanc.
- Stage 1-2: Play your strongest opener, ideally around Guinsoo’s on Teemo. Hold Shepherd units and econ generating traits such as Timebreaker or Primordian.
- Stage 3: Continue to hold Shepherd units, if you have your Emblem at this point playing 3 should be easy and should help stabilize your board.
- Stage 4: Level on 4-2 and look for 5-7 Shepherd. If you don’t find Sona look to play Voyagers or 5 costs and 5 Shepherd
- Stage 5+: Level to 9 and look for 7 Shepherd, 4 Vanguard is not highest cap but can be hard to drop out of.
- Tips:
- Picking the correct Arbiter is very skill testing for this comp. Try to plan out your items to compliment what you pick. For example, if you have an Archangel’s built AS Arbiters will be better than AP Arbiters.
- You likely won’t have a lot of extra slots if you do play 7 Shepherd but it is a cheap way to be strong. Max cap is drop 2 of the lower cost Shepherds such as Teemo and Lissandra for 5 cost.
