How it works
General
- You use your R frequently, thanks to Axiom Arc cooldown reduction.
- You try to use your Rs with First Strike, to boost damage and earn gold.
- Liandry's Torment works with Axiom Arc (bigger window of R cooldown reduction because of burn effects).
How to play
General
- Rush #1 Liandry's Torment, #2 Axiom Arc.
- You can use R just to poke enemies. 100+ gold First Strike ensured!
- Usually wait for First Strike and proc it with your R. Be careful to not get poked, because you waste First Strike procs.
- Late in the game, you can sell boots and go for sixth AP item.
- The Collector works surprisingly well with DoTs. You can buy it if you are ahead or want to test this out.
Tips and Tricks
Champion
- You can Body Slam (E), then Flash to do cool combo and catch unsuspecting enemies!
- You can Body Slam (E), then Flash forward, backward or even sideways, and you will still hit the enemy at the end of animation.
Riot
- The damage reduction from Drunken Rage is applied when you start drinking, try to use it when you see damage coming your way.
- Try to knock enemies back into your towers with Explosive Cask.
- Try to combo Body Slam with Explosive Cask to set up kills for your team.
