How it works
General
- You are going Guinsoo's Rageblade, building Attack Speed and On-Hit items.
- Thanks to Guinsoo's Rageblade, your On Hit effects are gonna trigger two times every third Attack.
- You are gonna play Carry for your team.
How to play
General
- Build On-Hit items!
- Usually Guinsoo's Rageblade is not good first rush. Get it as #2 or #3 item.
- Your first item should be adapting to enemy team:
- If they have tons of HP stacking bruisers/tanks - go Blade of The Ruined King.
- If they are super magic damage heavy / CC - go Wit's End.
- If you want to become more tanky - go Titanic Hydra.
- Default option, as it works well with you champ is Nashor's Tooth
- Otherwise, you can get Kraken Slayer, Statikk Shiv (fun & wave clear)
- You need some time to ramp-up your damage (runes, items etc.), so position well and keep auto attacking!
- Remember to use Titanic Hydra active! It deals additional damage and also resets auto attack timer!
Champion
- Do not try fighting in Cougar form and going in. This build relies on auto attacking, but auto attacking in Human form from distance and kiting!
- You have kit to kite enemies. Getting focused? Jump away. Or get into bush for movement speed bonus.
- Going Cougar sometimes is okay - i.e. 1v1, or for quick auto reset from Cougar Qs. Be careful!
- Use your E as self-steroid to boost attack speed.
Tips and Tricks
Champion
- You can use your traps Bushwhack / Pounce (W) for bush control.
- When there's Cannon minion or Siege minion, try focusing it, so an enemy team won't destroy all your traps.
- For that reason, you can put your traps more behind your position (i.e., if an enemy team has great engage on your team).
- As Nidalee, you have your ultimate Aspect Of The Cougar (R) since lvl 1. You can lose track of enemy levels and get surprised by their level 6 spike and their ulti. Watch out!
Riot
- Use brush to your advantage! Moving in and out of brush can heavily alter your effectiveness in battle.
- Start team fights by harassing with your Javelin Toss, and then switch to cougar form to chase down Hunted targets.
- Bushwhack traps deal damage based on their victim's current Health. Set them up in your team's backline before fights break out during sieges to help your team deal damage to the enemy frontline.
