How to play
General
You rush Iceborn Gauntlet #1, then you need to adapt your items to the game. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
You can rush Imperial Mandate #2 if you can afford it, this makes this build more fun. However, if you are behind, it is okay to just skip it.
There's great synergy between Iceborn Gauntlet + Imperial Mandate + Font of Life. You create frozen pools that will persist for a few seconds, slowing enemies, applying Imperial Mandate debuff + Font of Life heal mark for your allies.
For more utility oriented build, you can get Locket of the Iron Solari (sustain) or Shurelya's Battlesong (engages).
Triumph rune is better overall (heal and gold), but if you want to have easier time with your mana, go Presence of the Mind.
Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!
Tips and Tricks
Champion
Your Ultimate upgrade order:
Fire at Will (more waves).
Death's Daughter (true damage).
Raise Morale (bonus movement speed).
Your Parrrley (Q) count as ranged attack, which means some runes and items will give you an effect as if you were ranged champion. For example: Grasp of the Undying - less heal, less Health, less dmg. Hubris - less ad. First Strike - less gold.

Riot
Parrrley applies On Hit effects like Frozen Mallet or Black Cleaver.
Paying attention to low-health enemies on the map can land you a surprise kill with Cannon Barrage.
Try placing Cannon Barrage on the path of escape to cut off fleeing enemies.
