Final composition
INTRODUCTION
A composition currently trending is the Akshan reroll with Lissandra. The idea behind it is that Akshan always targets the farthest unit, which often happens to be the carries. Therefore, by having a fully stacked 2-star Akshan, when people only have 1-star 4-cost carries, they will likely get one-shot. The same goes for when Akshan reaches 3-stars and their 2-star carries. We will use Freljord for even more crowd control (CC) and damage, Jarvan for additional CC, and late-game Sion who can provide CC and access to the backline.
AUGMENTS
- A Cut Above - Gain a Deathblade. Champions with Deathblade have a 40% chance to drop 1 gold on kill.
- Freljord Heart - Your team counts as having 1 additional Freljord. Gain an Ashe.
- Glacial Breeze - When your Freljordian Storm strikes, your units are shielded for 15% of their maximum Health and gain 8% Attack Speed. Gain 2 Freljord units.
- Know Your Enemy - After the first enemy dies each round, your units deal 25% Increased damage.
EARLY GAME
Of course, we would love to get lucky and have Akshan early on, but if not, we can simply use a carry with Deathblade or Infinity Edge like Jhin or Samira. Having a 2-star Renekton with good items would also be a significant advantage.
MID GAME
The mid game is indeed crucial, and we will stay at level 7 while slow-rolling for our units. With this strategy, we will consistently be stronger than those who have 1-star 4-cost carries and are pivoting their composition. We aim to maintain our strength throughout the entire game.
ITEMIZATIONS
- Infinity Edge is indeed a crucial item on Akshan as it significantly enhances his damage output.
- Runaan's Hurricane is a very strong item for Akshan as it provides additional attack speed and enables him to hit multiple targets. The item's effect synergizes well with Akshan's ultimate, allowing him to hit multiple enemies at once.
- Deathblade will provide him with a massive amount of attack damage to have an even greater chance of killing squishy targets.
GAME PLAN
- It's a reroll composition at level 7, so we'll need to save up gold and prepare Akshan's items until then.
- Infinity Edge and Deathblade are the priority items as they will help mitigate the HP loss with a strong carry like Jhin or Samira.
- It's important to have some tanky items like Warmog's Armor as well.
- Once we reach level 7, we slow-roll for the entire composition.
- If Lissandra reaches level 3, she will be our AP carry.
- Once Akshan reaches level 7, we can push for level 8 and add Sion to the composition.
- This will give us the Brawler trait, more crowd control (CC), and even more damage to the backline.
