Runes

is going to be super efficient if you need a better early game.

scales super hard (like ). AutoAttacks and will leave your spears through your opponents so when the Red Spark of lights up, you just use your and goes +1!!! Easy Peasy!!!

some extra healing during trades is always a viable choice

+ = Tons of Heal

synergizes superb with and gives you even more Att.Speed

+ = Kill

Some extra Att.Damage

Heal after you get score a kill. Works for eveybody.

Pros / Cons

+ can carry games
+ can become very opressive as an enemy
+ has high mobility due to her passive
+'s is a very fast skillshot giving your opponents less chance to avoid it
+ is one of the best late game champions

- needs a lot of practice, she ain't easy.
- has no escape tools
-if you fell behind with , coming back is not that easy.

Spells

The most famous spell of all times. 99% of the players make use of it and is no exception.
It can work either offensively or defensively.

My most common pick. The sooner you get fed, the sooner you become a God.

For hardcore match-ups.

Start Items

Pick 3 of theese and a if you are against a etc. to help you stay healthy from poison. They are also the best defence against . You can also sell them in a very cost efficient price. Worth, Worth, Worth.

The most common pick to start your game as + a . Att.Damage, Health and Life Steal.

In case you don't feel that confident with the match-up, pick this one. Also, when it comes to fighting, this one (while active) gives your strikes a burn effect against your opponent which makes this choice super strong early on.

Core Items

should always be your first buy on . It's super cost effecient and the Att.Speed it provides makes your early game super strong.

is an item that uses it's full potential. Att.Speed, Life Steal, Damage and an extra SLOW to help you kite even better and keep your for the right moment.

was made for ; Your farming is gonna sky-rocket as soon as you buy this item. AutoAttacking multiple creeps at once + = FARM, FARM, FARM. Att.Speed, Critical, Movement Speed on ??? Is there anything else to ask for???

More Att.Speed on ??? YES. More Critical on ??? Yes. More Movement Speed on ??? Yes. Passing through units (like a Ghost :P) for ??? Yes. And a Shield to save your a*s??? Are you kidding me???

the "KID PRODIGY"!!! Giving an extra SLOW for every AutoAttack. At this moment things go crazy unfair. You can kite them all-day long and stay away. This is the moment that this kit goes beyond fair-play. Now take a moment back and think what are we talking about right now:
+ + !!! They should start praying for mercy!!!
*TIP* If you are against a etc, you can buy this right after and then
. The opponent will brake his PC. :P

Last Item to Choose

lifesteal is always nice on .

more Att.Damage and tons of Armor Pen.

more Att.Damage, lots of Armor Pen and Grievous Wounds to prevent enemy's Health Regeneration.

if you need a second chance.

Elixir

Extra Att.Damage and extra Drain. Perfect.

Abilities

The ability that makes so well known for. Between your AutoAttacks you make a small jump. This passive makes the super mobile champion she is, allowing her to dodge skillshots and staying away from her opponents ..will kiting them.

's skillshot. It's super fast and that makes it too difficult to avoid. It also works as an AutoAttack which means that you can make a jump when using it. The best way to use it, is to AA a creep as much as you can and then hit it with your . Who ever is behind the dying creep gets all the stacks of spear + damage. GG. That's the best way to kite/farm with . Just remember to put a second point on it when you hit your lvl4, it's really worthy.

out of wards? Send a to the location you want to keep you safe.

this is 's bread and butter. That's her farming tool and her main damage source so you max it first everytime. Further more, each time you kill your target using you restore mana and when you max it, it restores 100% of mana used by it.

hide your Oathsworn ally and go near your enemies. He will blast them in the air. Game changer ultimate when it comes to team fights.
