How to Play:
- Gameplan: Play a tempo AP opener and look to fast 9. Ideal spots for this comp are 8+ win streaks that allow you to skip level 8 and immediately go level 9 for 5 cost. Having 2/3 back line 5 cost with 3 items and having at least 1-2 Vows or Adaptives is absolutely key to doing well with this comp so prioritize item augments.
- Stage 1-2: Ideally take a premium econ augment and look to win streak. Item augments can also be great to provide tempo. Play Leona print Arbiter if you see it as Leona 3 solves your front line immediately.
- Stage 3: Take an augment that allows you to continue your streak if possible. If not take another econ augment. By this point your slams will dictate what your back line carries will be.
- Stage 4: Look to go 9 on 4-5 if you took 2 econ augments. If not prepare to go 9 on 5-1.
- Stage 5+: Go 9 if you haven’t already. By this point you should have 3 items on 2/3 of Vex, Bard or Sona.
- Tips:
- Item quality is everything in this comp. Playing around Vex without Guinsoo or Sona without sufficient mana generation is a recipe for disaster. Bard can take more generic items
- Vow is the most important item in this comp. You must have at least 1, the more the better.
