Patch 13.9 Meta Snapshot

You prefer to roll on level 8 for the renegade board, but you should usually roll on level 7 to hit Jhin and viego. +1 renegade is great for this comp, allowing you to drop camille for syndra or another legendary unit. Jhin’s best items are last whisper, deathblade, ie, runaan’s, and giant slayer, while viego wants spark, a healing item, and any AP item like jg, deathcap, or titan’s. The best augments for this comp are thrill of the hunt, +1 renegade, jeweled lotus, second wind, battlemage, component grab bag, and portable forge. The best hero augments are heartstopper, rule of four, eclipse prime, small game hunter, hextech retribution, and darkin assimilation.

Lasercorps warwick always wants to roll on level 7 for 1 warwick to stabilize with 4 lasercorps and upgraded frontline. Then, you should push level 8 if you are stable and roll for warwick 2 there. This comp caps out at about a fourth if you cannot go level 9, so try to do so to hit mordekaiser 2 and itemize him once you hit warwick 2. Ekko is a flex unit. Warwick’s two best items are Quicksilver and titan’s. You want defensive items as survivability is key for lasercorps. After that, damage items like runaan’s, last whisper, deathblade, and hoj can work. Mordekaiser wants any AP items like deathcap, archangel’s, and jg. Throw your tank items on blitzcrank or riven.

Spellslinger boards prefer to roll on level 8 to hit 2-star 4-costs, but you should usually roll on level 7, as you are often contested and the comp still plays well with just 4 ox force 4 spellslingers. At level 9, drop sona and ekko for syndra and janna, and add in nunu. Prioritize making shred first in either spark or shiv in this comp. Itemizing TF first is usually more consistent, as he provides single target damage, but you shouldn’t be too picky, as itemizing neeko works as well. TF’s best items are rageblade, shiv, jg, giant slayer, hoj, gunblade, deathcap, archangel’s, and guardbreaker, while neeko’s best items are jg, guardbreaker, shojin, giant slayer, deathcap, and archangel’s. Tank items can go on annie or ekko, and any extra carry items can go on viego.

Anima squad usually wants to roll on level 7 for MF, riven 2, and upgraded frontline before pushing level 8, since you don’t need legendary units. Play gnar with +1 prankster, and if you get an anima spat, play 7 and put it on ekko. MF’s best items are shojin and guardbreaker, while jg, archangel’s, deathcap, hoj, and gunblade are decent options.

Gadgeteen gnar is a 3-cost reroll comp that prefers to roll on level 7. Try to 3-star Annie, Sona and Alistar if you can, but give up on them and focus on gnar if you have to, as they are only bonuses. Gnar’s most important item is healing like bt or hoj, followed by last whisper. The last item can be a second healing item or a damage item like titan’s, deathblade, or giant slayer. Throw your tank items on annie and any AP items on Sona.
