Conditions:
- Early Vayne Drop is preferred
- Strong Demacia Opener
- Lots of items
How to Play:
- Unlockables: Kai’Sa, Galio, Poppy, Ziggs
- Kai’Sa: Field a 2 item Longshot at Level 7. This should happen naturally as we build items for Vayne.
- Galio: Field 8 star levels of Demacia at level 8. This should happen naturally as you upgrade your Demacians.
- Poppy: Field a Demacian or Yordle with 2 items in combat.
- Ziggs: Field a Yordle or Zaun with 2 items in combat at level 9. Using a TG on Poppy is the easiest way to achieve this. If you are low HP do not sack a combat round for Ziggs, instead wait to unlock him on neutrals.
- Gameplan: Play strong around a Demacia opener, ideally with a Vayne drop. Vayne will anchor your mid game and is worth building towards. You can make AD or AP items to play this comp as Kai’Sa can easily use both. Prioritize item augments to reach 3 item Vayne, Kai’Sa and a front liner.
- Stage 1-2: Play your strongest Demacia opener, ideally around Vayne. If you have AP items and a Sona 2 consider the normal AP Demacia line or AP Kai’Sa.
- Stage 3: Level to 7 to unlock Kai’Sa. If you are win streaking you can do this as early as 3-2 if you have sufficient econ. Kai’Sa 1 is very strong and will likely continue your win streak. If you can stay above 30 gold, it is likely worth it to level for the unlock.
- Stage 4: Level to 8 on 4-2 and roll for upgrades. It should be easy to be strong on this stage around Vayne 2, Kai’Sa and ideally Garen or Taric 2. If you hit a lot of copies of Vayne on your roll down and theres multiple 3 cost reroll players, consider staying 8 for Vayne 3.
- Stage 5+: Go 9 when possible and look to unlock Ziggs. Ziggs 2 can eventually replace Kai’Sa but it is often too expensive. Max cap drops Kog’Maw and Kai’Sa for strong 5 costs.
- Tips:
- This comp has very good early and mid game tempo windows making it a great comp to top 4 consistently. It’s easy to be strong stage 2 from a Vayne orb, followed by an early Kai’Sa unlock to solve stage 3 and a very strong 4-2 rolldown around Vayne 2 and Kai’Sa.
- Void Mod Priority: Leeching Nucleus > Spitter Spines >>> Adrenaline Modules.
- We already get damage amp from Longshot that Adrenaline modules is very inefficient.
- This comp is a great default if you have a Demacia spot but AD items instead of Lux items.
- Hold The Line is a great combat augment for this comp as we have a lot of damage amp but lack raw stats.
