  • Early Ixtal (2-5 latest)
  • Player HP Augments

How to Play: Data Explorer

  • Unlockables: Brock, Nidalee, Skarner, Ryze (Optional)
    • Brock: Collect 500 Sunshards throughout the game. This should naturally happen as you play this comp.
    • Nidalee: Field 2 star Neeko with 3 at level 7. Consider leveling for Nidalee if you are too far from 3 stars and need to pivot to normal Ixtal. Gives access to 5 Ixtal for healing.
    • Skarner: Field a Marksman or Caster with a Chain Vest item at level 7. Same as Nidalee. Heavily prio in AD lobbies.
    • Ryze: Play 3 region traits at level 9. Ixtal Ryze has one of the highest caps in the game.
  • Gameplan: There are a lot of boards you can play from Ixtal Cashouts Annie caps out very high and gives you a strong backline and frontline at the cost of 1 unit. AP variants are easier to play than AD as Millio holds AP items decently.
    • Stage 1-2: Play 3 Ixtal and ideally find a loss streak quest. If you miss on a loss streak quest pick the easiest to complete and look again.
    • Stage 3: You will likely be weak so a loss streak quest is nice or something that can be completed without impacting your ability to make econ. Prioritize quest completion.
    • Stage 4: Ideally by 4-5 we have Brock, at the latest 5-1. Cash out when you need to be strong. An easy way to be strong is to hold on to Targon units and to unlock Skarner.
    • Stage 5+: Go 9 and roll for 5 cost, Lucian & Senna are very good, as is Kindred. If you need to play into AP consider Zilean or Annie.
  • Tips:
    • Often times your best quests early game will be loss streak ones as they allow you to greed.
    • If none of your quest are good pick the easiest one. If none of your quest are realistically completable cash out and restart a quest. You don’t need to reach 500 concurrent Sunshards, just 500 sunshards earned total.
    • There is a lot of flexibility on this board, the only static unit is Brock.
    • Almost any AD items are fine on backline. Kindred prefers auto attack based items such as Guinsoo’s and Kraken. Lucian & Senna prefer caster items such as Shojin and IE. Most AP backline options like double mana.
    • Combat tends to be better as your cash out will likely give you items.
    • 3 Ixtal is not necessary post cash out, if you are able to unlock Sylas drop Neeko for him.
    • If you are able to unlock Nidalee she is very strong and worth playing around.
    • Ixtal Ryze caps very high.
