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!
Tips and Tricks
Champion
Collecting chimes is essential. It improves your damage and Traveler's Call (Passive) effects, gives mana and movement speed. Do it!
Low on mana? Collect some chimes.
Use your Caretaker's Shrine (W). Put it somewhere behind your team, so they can use it when needed and enemy can't destroy it. Let it charge for increased Healing.
You can have 3 W at the same time. You can leave 2 W behind your team for healing.
You have great engaging tool with your Tempered Fate (R). Play with your team and do not wait for 'special moment'. You can land great R, catching people off and making engagements possible.
Identify the best targets for your Ultimate. Is there an enemy who lacks mobility? That's a good target. Sometimes you can use it for disrupting fights. Or for protecting your allies. Be mindful!
Magical Journey (E) is an interesting tool that you can use in ARAM. You can aggressively E into an enemy team or play mind games with them.
Riot
It's important to collect chimes to improve your meep's attacks, but don't neglect your lane partner! Try to make a big entrance by bringing an ally into the lane with you with Magical Journey.
Let your Caretaker's Shrines charge up - they heal for a lot more when at full power.
Don't forget that enemies can also use your Magical Journey doorways, and that your ultimate can also hit your allies!
