Notes
General
- Ashe's Volley (W) is heavily nerfed (it is 16 sec cooldown at max rank!) - meaning even with 50% haste, you will get ~8 sec cooldown on W.
- Ashe's Volley (W) nerf makes this build not really optimal to play. You can still play it and be somewhat successful, but it will not be as fun as before.
- Right now, a much better (and fun) way of playing Ashe is just to go auto-attack builds like meta ADC builds, or even Bruiser or Tank.

How to play
General
- Imperial Mandate Ashe build. Used to be one of the most annoying builds out there.
- Imperial Mandate is changed, now you need your team to proc it to deal any damage. So you need to play a little bit differently. Do not spam mindlessly. Try coordinating it with your team - when they are about to poke or when they go in.
- Usually rush Imperial Mandate #1, unless your team will not be able to proc it reliably. If so, then rush Liandry's Torment. Follow up with the other item (Liandry's/Imperial), then Muramana/The Collector. That is your core build.
- You can have really good utility with Horizon Focus (revealing enemies).
- You can counter extremely well shields and healing by rushing Serpent's Fang/Morellonomicon (works with Liandry's Torment DOT).
- Poke from distance and play safe.
Tips and Tricks
General
- Want to push enemy turret quickly? Prepare your Ranger's Focus (Q), stack it on minions and use it on turret, to take it fast.
- Casting Ranger's Focus (Q) resets your auto attack!
- Hawkshot (E) is a powerful cooldown in ARAM, do not waste it, keep it either for fights (so no brushes side stepping) or when you want to catch enemy.
- You can score kills for your team with Hawkshot (E). Just wait for a good moment, when enemy in the brush overextending trying to poke.
Riot
- Try to fire Enchanted Crystal Arrow in the same direction enemies are moving, so it is more likely to hit.
- Volley arrows are blocked by the first enemy they hit, so keep your distance to avoid having them all absorbed by enemy frontliners.
- Hawkshot reveals units in brush. If a team fight is occuring in the jungle it can give you a significant advantage.
