How it works

General
  1. You rush Hextech Rocketbelt #1, Liandry's Torment #2.
  2. You get Cosmic Insight rune to use Hextech Rocketbelt more often.
  3. You poke with Hextech Rocketbelt and First Strike to earn gold and burn enemies.
  4. After core items, you adapt. You can play as a tank or as a damage dealer.

How to play

General
  1. Use Hextech Rocketbelt active to poke your enemies all the time, earning gold with First Strike.
  2. Adapt to the enemy team. Build tanky or more damage. You can play as a utility tank, poke, or even you can go some AD items to still have plenty of damage. Depends on the team and how you want to play.
  3. For utility tank, remember that Liandry's Torment works good with Serpent's Fang (to counter shields) and Oblivion Orb (to counter healing).
  4. Cosmic Insight reduces the cooldown of all active items, so Zhonya's Hourglass really works well with this build.
  5. Wait for the First Strike and proc it with your combo, to deal damage and earn gold.
  6. Be careful to not get poked, because you waste First Strike procs.
  7. Your main combo is First Strike, then E + Hextech Rocketbelt + W + Q + R if possible, then E out.
  8. Your alternate combo just for poke is First Strike + E, then Hextech Rocketbelt + W and E out

Tips and Tricks

General
  1. Enemy attacking your turret, and you are the only one alive? Just use Soul Unbound (E) and take portal (frost-gate) to get their attention and defend your turret.
  2. Yone ARAM combo #1: use Soul Unbound (E), get close to your enemies, then hit them with Mark (Snowball). When E ends, you can teleport bac to them.
  3. Yone ARAM combo #2: hit Mark (Snowball), use Soul Unbound (E), teleport to them to deal damage, then E to your original position. Good for poke.
  4. Always keep stacking your Mortal Steel (Q).
