- You rush Moonstone Renewer.
- You can peel from your carries with Exhaust.
How to play
Support Build specific
- You need to adapt in the game to your team and to the enemy team.
- Your team needs to engage? Get items like Shurelya's Battlesong or Trailblazer.
- Your team getting poked to death? Consider getting Redemption AND/OR Locket of the Iron Solari
- If you are just getting poked and cannot manage to stay alive - get Kaenic Rookern or Warmog's Armor (caution: needs enough HP!)
- You have tanks, bruisers and your team lack damage? As a last resort, you can buy few items to even help with that!
- Remember to counter an enemy team. For example, if they have lots of healing, get Executioner's Calling early.
Kayle specific
- Kayle's kit offers lots of utility. You can heal and speed with W, triggering Summon Aery with it to shield your allies, you can shred Armor/MR of enemy tanks (your Q). And of course, you can make someone invincible.
- Generally play safe, from behind. Use heals for wounded, you can cast W to speed someone up - to run away or to engage. And you can make someone invincible for a moment (carry, tanks etc).
- This is a general support build, that is well-rounded for everything mentioned above.
- Max W, go a lot of CDR because it has long cooldown at early levels.
- Even as Support, your E is a semi execute ability that scales off missing health of enemy target, meaning you can still do some serious damage
- Auto attack if possible and safe! You have lots of On-Hit effects that work and do damage even with this build.
- If you want to have this build Ultimate oriented - go Domination + Ultimate Hunter and Rush Axiom Arc first!
Tips and Tricks
General
- Do not wait for 'special moment' to use Divine Judgement (Kayle's Ultimate) on someone. Someone is still high HP, but getting focused? Use it!
Riot
- Using Divine Judgment on a high-DPS ally can turn the tides of battle by giving your ally free reign to attack.
- Kayle's attacks become incredibly powerful once she gains attack range from Divine Ascent. Play safe until then.
- Kayle benefits greatly from Attack Damage and Ability Power, making hybrid items like Nashor's Tooth and Hextech Gunblade very effective on her.
