How it works

General

  1. You play poke oriented Mage.
  2. You rush Luden's Companion.
  3. You build AP items, going full damage.

How to play

General

  1. Playing AP Cassiopeia build, your default rush is Luden's Companion. In cases, when an enemy team is full of tanks and HP stackers, go Liandry's Torment.
  2. Adapt to an enemy team. Are they full of tanks, and they rush tons of Magic Resist? You rush Void Staff as #2 or #3 item to counter MR stacking. Their team has champs with lots of healing? Rush Oblivion Orb as #2 item (upgrade to Morellonomicon as 4th or 5th item).
  3. Somebody is going after you each fight? Always getting ulted by enemy assassins? Rush Zhonya's Hourglass.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. You can use Petrifying Gaze (R) + Flash combo to instantly stun unsuspecting enemies. This is good fight initiator and you can catch people off guard!
    • This tricks works forward/backward and sideways!
  2. You can slow enemy push by placing Miasma (W) on the minions' path.
  3. Your Miasma (W) is very powerful ability that prevents movements abilities/summoners.
    • #1 It can be death sentence for assassins or divers. Just keep this when they go in.
    • #2 Also another good use it to pair it with strong Ultimates from your teamates.
    • #3 You can keep it for peeling for your carry as well.
