You know, I actually kind of like this guide, especially since I haven't seen a new Kayle guide in a very long time. I don't agree with you putting 30 points into offense, I know you're going for a hard-hitting hybrid, but you just don't need all that and you should really be putting it in defense or utility to help with your early game more. On that note, you need to address the fact that Kayle has a super weak early game, and if you don't farm well or get fed, she has a hard time snowballing into a right place in the game. That being said, I'd strongly recommend nixing the Madred's Bloodrazor in favor of a Trinity Force where you can build the components much earlier and really beef up her early-mid game. I just think you're far too squishy with no armour seals, no MR glyphs, no resistances from items, and not a large health pool either, and I can imagine you getting stomped by tankier opponents in lane and from ganks, because we all know how useless Divine Blessing is. I'm gonna vote you up because you clearly put time into this, but I'd love to see some improvements and consideration of Kayle's crippling weaknesses, like squishiness and early game.

Thank you for your vote ^^

Well, thing is this has been working so well for me up until now. I've been considering Utility for some time now because her chaseability midgame is a bit lacking, so I'd like to give her some movement speed in detriment of more damage. I might get a full armour glyph set and see how much I miss that CD as well.

As for Trinity Force prior to Madred's Bloodrazor, it's all about how things are going. If all is well and your opponent's aren't too bulky yet, I completely agree with the early Phage into Trinity Force, but if you've reached teambattle mode all too fast and there's bulkyness around, I've more than often sliced Nunu onto oblivion after dispatching the primary targets.

Thank you very much for the imput!


Thank you Tsuki for the sig!

I like your guide, it clearly shows that you put effort in it and didnt slap a couple of items and called it a day. I have never faced a Kayle solo top, i think she has a very low health pool to counter those hard solo tops like Olaf, or Pantheon, or Lee Sin. I guess she can be a good counter pick for some champs though. Have you considered playing her in the jungle? She is doing exceptionally well with her skillset. Also, i would like to see how you play against Singed and Shen (because they are my favorite solo tops :D).

+1 from me.

PS: you have a little typo in your "Lane Phase" where you write {wiki] instead of [wiki]



Many thanks to MissMaw, LaCorpse, Xiron, Arcana3 and Joxuu for making me sigs!

Guide is all right,

one flaw that I have to mention- besides the fact that I do not like to put 30 points in offensive tree (but hey, that's my opinion and nothing is set in stone :) - is that I would make clear in the "vs tanky ad" section that it is either The Black Cleaver OR Last Whisper as using both reduces the value of Last Whisper significantly.

)For some reason I can't see recent comments from anyone, but thank you guys for the votes!)

I've reviewed her runes recently, as it says on the guide. The CDR by itself hasn't been absurdly missed and I think I can feel the armour runes working.

Blowfeld, I actually had no idea I should choose between the two <.< I did some of these trollish matches and, whenever I was reaching full build, I did it as it was shown. Thank you for that note, The Black Cleaver still does an amazing job by itself so I'll probably suggest lifesteal or some tanky-item when I review it ^^


Thanks Icecreamy for the Valentine's sig! :>

this build works good in 3v3 except you got a team that flames you for "troll picking kayle and only having 15/5/10 stats"

Ahah, it happens quite frequently, I think she's very good 3 vs 3 althought there are some really annoying counter teams, you just gotta be careful with your start and abuse the jungle for a bit.

You're amidst the best lees I've seen, actually setting the parameters where I measure if a Lee is bad or not :D
