How it works

How it works

  1. You build around high percentage health damage from your abilities and on-hit procs.
  2. Dusk and Dawn gives an additional on-hit effect that scales your damage significantly.
  3. Hextech Gunblade provides large Ability Power and a slow active to help land skillshots.
  4. Abyssal Mask offers a cost-effective 12% magic damage increase aura around you.

Champion

  1. Your The Relentless Storm (Passive) provides stacking attack speed and chain lightning magic damage on-hit.
  2. Your Sky Splitter (E) deals % max health magic damage and grants a large AP-scaling shield.
  3. Hextech Gunblade slow keeps enemies inside your Sky Splitter (E) and within melee range for sustained lightning procs.

How to play

Team Compositions & When to Build

  1. Build this primarily when facing multiple tanks or bruisers where percentage health damage shines.
  2. Ensure you have engage champions on your team, as diving in alone without frontline support will get you eliminated quickly.
  3. If the entire enemy team is squishy, avoid this build.

Playstyle & Combos

  1. Use Hextech Gunblade active to slow the enemy first, allowing you to land Sky Splitter (E) more consistently.
  2. Trigger Press the Attack quickly with auto-attacks and Thundering Smash (Q) to apply the 8% damage increase.

Items

  1. Rush Dusk and Dawn first for the core on-hit scaling, followed by Hextech Gunblade and Abyssal Mask.
  2. If enemy tanks build heavy Magic Resistance, rush Void Staff as your 4th item. Void Staff is preferred over Cryptbloom due to higher raw Ability Power.
  3. If the enemy is not building Magic Resistance, build Rabadon's Deathcap before Void Staff.
  4. In late game or when very rich, Abyssal Mask can be replaced with Shadowflame or other high-AP items.

Runes

  1. Press the Attack is ideal for quick burst trades; Conqueror and Grasp of the Undying take too long to stack in all-in skirmishes.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

The Relentless Storm
The Relentless Storm (Passive)

  1. Weave autos and abilities to stack faster and maximize damage from The Relentless Storm (Passive).

Sky Splitter
Sky Splitter (E)

  1. Want to hit Sky Splitter (E)? Trick enemies by facing another direction when casting it.
  2. You can pretend that you casted E by using emojis to confuse enemies.
