Optional Summoner Spells

Exhaust

Exhaust

Solid choice in most of the games. Helps against assassins, divers and melee overall. It also lowers your healing output as you do not take Heal. Solid choice overall.

Ignite

Ignite

Offensive option, improves your damage, gives you additional cooldown to use in fights, but reduces your healing output.

Ghost

Ghost

Improves mobility. You can chase, position and flee better. Reduces your healing output, but makes you more agile in fights.

How it works

  1. You rush Echoes of Helia.
  2. You play aggressively, getting Echoes of Helia stacks and spending them as soon as you can.
  3. You don't even need Support abilities. You can proc this item consistently with Guardian and Font of Life rune, Heal summoner spell and items.
  4. You adapt to your team's needs: more support, more damage or even more tank.

Playstyle

  1. ⚔️

    Play aggressively, deal damage and poke to stack Echoes of Helia.

  2. 💫

    Trigger Helia as often as possible with abilities, runes, summoners and items.

  3. 🤝

    Support allies while dealing damage to enemies.

How to play

  1. This is an off-meta and very fun build that works on ANY champion with mana - even those without healing or shielding abilities! All thanks to Diadem of Songs + Echoes of Helia combo.
  2. With Diadem of Songs + Echoes of Helia combo, you can continuously heal your team with high healing output.
  3. Play aggresively, stack Echoes of Helia and heal!

Items

  1. Start with Tear of the Goddess and try stacking it ASAP. Get Echoes of Helia #1, then Diadem of Songs #2. Then you adapt in the game to your team and to the enemy team.
  2. Usual item order: Echoes of Helia -> Moonstone Renewer -> Redemption -> Locket of the Iron Solari then adapt.
  3. Counter enemy team, go more support or go more damage. You can even build some tank items if needed.

Buffing your team

  1. Ardent Censer is worth it if you have auto attackers on your team (ADCs, auto-attack bruisers). It will trigger often enough to be good buy.
  2. Bandlepipes is a good new item that gives MS and buffs your allies Attack Speed when you slow/immobilize enemies. Good for your auto attackers.
  3. Staff of Flowing Water is great if you have AP champions on your team. You'll be proccing it frequently with your support abilities.

Adaptation

  1. Your team needs to engage or position? Get items like Shurelya's Battlesong or Trailblazer.
  2. Your team getting poked to death? Consider getting Redemption AND/OR Locket of the Iron Solari next.
  3. If you are just getting poked and cannot manage to stay alive - get Kaenic Rookern or Warmog's Armor (caution: needs enough HP!)
  4. You have tanks, bruisers and your team lack damage? As a last resort, you can buy few items to even help with that!
  5. Remember to counter an enemy team. For example, if they have lots of healing, get Executioner's Calling early.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. Want to push enemy turret quickly? Prepare your Ranger's Focus (Q), stack it on minions and use it on turret, to take it fast.
  2. Casting Ranger's Focus (Q) resets your auto attack! If you time it well, you can auto, then activate Q for instant second auto.
  3. Hawkshot (E) is a powerful cooldown in ARAM, do not waste it!
    • Use it for scouting
    • You can use it in fights to prevent enemies from brush side-stepping
  4. You can score kills for your team with Hawkshot (E). Just wait for a good moment, when enemy in the brush overextending trying to poke.

Riot

  1. Try to fire Enchanted Crystal Arrow in the same direction enemies are moving, so it is more likely to hit.
  2. Volley arrows are blocked by the first enemy they hit, so keep your distance to avoid having them all absorbed by enemy frontliners.
  3. Hawkshot reveals units in brush. If a team fight is occuring in the jungle it can give you a significant advantage.
