How it works

  1. You play poke oriented Mage.
  2. You rush Luden's Echo.
  3. You build AP items, going full damage.

How to play

  1. Playing AP Seraphine build, your default rush is Luden's Echo. In cases, when an enemy team is full of tanks and HP stackers, go Liandry's Torment.
  2. Adapt to an enemy team. Are they full of tanks, and they rush tons of Magic Resist? You rush Void Staff as #2 or #3 item to counter MR stacking. Their team has champs with lots of healing? Rush Oblivion Orb as #2 item (upgrade to Morellonomicon as 4th or 5th item).
  3. Somebody is going after you each fight? Always getting ulted by enemy assassins? Rush Zhonya's Hourglass.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

Surround Sound (W)

  1. To trigger heal you need to have shield present on you. You normally do this with empowered Surround Sound (W). However you can also watch for shields from your allies or try coordinating with them to heal everyone on cooldowm

Beat Drop (E)

  1. If you want to crank up your utility by 1000%, you can get Rylai's Crystal Scepter.
  2. Rylai's Crystal Scepter changes how your Beat Drop (E) works. It normally slows, but with Rylai's it roots instantly! This turns your un-empowered E into an unconditional AoE root. And empowered E into unconditional AoE stun.
  3. You can use Beat Drop (E) in combination with Flash to quickly change the direction and length of the ability and surprise enemies.

Encore (R)

  1. Encore (R) not only extends when going through enemy champions, it also extends through allies too. Use this to shoot it through your frontline to reach enemy backline.
  2. For an easy guaranteed Encore (R), set it up with your empowered Beat Drop (E) root first - or an AoE stun if you have Rylai's Crystal Scepter - then fire Encore (R) while enemies are immobilized.
  3. Because R has a cast time and travel speed, landing it on moving enemies can be difficult. Always look to set up CC (or coordinate with your team) beforehand for a reliable combo.
  4. Alternatively, remember that Encore (R) also slows, you can follow up with a root from Beat Drop (E).
