How it works
- You rush Hextech Rocketbelt #1, Liandry's Torment #2.
- You get Ingenious Hunter and Cosmic Insight runes to use Hextech Rocketbelt often, almost like ability.
- You poke with Hextech Rocketbelt and First Strike to earn gold and burn enemies.
- After core items, you adapt. You can play as a tank or as a damage dealer.
How to play
- Use Hextech Rocketbelt active to poke your enemies all the time, earning gold with First Strike.
- 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.
- For utility tank, remember that Liandry's Torment works good with Serpent's Fang (to counter shields) and Oblivion Orb (to counter healing).
- Ingenious Hunter reduces cooldown of all active items, so Zhonya's Hourglass really works well with this build.
- Wait for the First Strike and proc it with your combo, to deal damage and earn gold.
- Be careful to not get poked, because you waste First Strike procs.
- Your main money-making combo is First Strike + Hextech Rocketbelt + following that up with Qs + E.
- Your alternate combo just for poke is E, then First Strike + Hextech Rocketbelt.
Tips and Tricks
General
- Q + Flash combos: You can use Flash during any time of Q animations. You can even combine that with Umbral Dash (E). You can Flash and E in any direction, making very spectacular and flashy plays.
- You can use Umbral Dash (E) for short dash, this way animation lasts shorter, and you can get crucial milliseconds to auto attack faster (can be deciding a factor in 1v1).
- You can reset your auto attack timer with Umbral Dash (E). It might be crucial in duels, or when pushing enemy turrets.
Riot
- Use Umbral Dash while casting The Darkin Blade to increase your chances of hitting the enemy.
- Crowd Control abilities like Infernal Chains or your allies' immobilizing effects will help you set up The Darkin Blade.
- Cast World Ender when you are sure you can force a fight.
