Introduction

Hello mains and/or Cheesers that want to try my guide. I am a Grandmasters Main in the NA server named lol_Wero and I stream AD Top on twitch. I've been playing League of Legends since Season 2. I've been playing AD since her PBE release and I'm happy to finally share it to everyone who is interested on it.

Why AD Build On Neeko?
Think of AD playstyle as top. Only with , she has a more kill potential with . s passive has decent damage while auto attacking and movement speed helps a lot with the kiting. Neeko also has good synergies with a lot of junglers for a very good early 2v2. This play style is pretty cheesey but most laners will not expect AD 's damage in the early game and will help more for the easy first blood.

What Is The Build Path For AD Neeko?
First item will be , 2nd will be , 3rd , 4th or , and 5th item can be something defensive like , .

Does AD Neeko Scale?
Yes it definitely scales into the mid/late game. You're able to 1v1 almost everybody in side lane.

What's The Play Style With This Build?
Getting as much Turret plates, and Zoning the Laner from CS and Experience. After the laning phase is over. You should be focusing on split pushing, taking objectives, and creating a lot of pressure on the map. has good clear in the jungle so take enemy jungle camps whenever you can.

FLASH: is always necessary for every game.

IGNITE: can cheese easy on the opponents with her range advantage. Starting for the empowered passive autos does a lot of damage at level 1. 70% of the time Your opponent will not expect the damage for the free kill. Think of this play style like or . can also get to Lane pretty quick without with the active.

TELEPORT: I rarely take but if you're not comfortable with a match up; you can take .

Runes

PRECISION

- AD is able to Proc easy in lane which makes her lane bully dominance absolutely great. After Procing , is able to continue autoing the enemy for more

- This has better scaling than but less lane bullying.

What's Better? ? or ? They both have their own strength. You can take whichever you feel more comfortable with.

can gain shield with and sustain which is very good for protection in the mid/late game.

More attack speed means more damage.

Depending on the match up you're in, take if the enemy are full squishy team and take if the enemy has more than 2 tanks.

Gathering Storm

✦
Since AD is about scaling, will help become more viable in the mid/late game. will also help the critical damages in the later game to burst out enemies.

Abilities As AD

Inherent Glamour (Passive)
When taking towers, switch to an ally melee champion for bonus extra tower damage (this is only viable when taking first tower pre 14 minutes.)

Blooming Burst (Q)
Not a useful spell for AD but it's worth using if you want to use it for little damage to your laner during laning phase.

Shapesplitter (W)
Shapesplitter passive empowered autos is one of the reasons why AD can be viable. This is similiar to s . Use active when running back to lane or when you're about to get gank. This will be the first spell to max.

Tangle-Barbs (E)
This will be the 2nd spell to max as AD . During laning phase, make sure to use for the kill. (NOTE: Watch the Cheese Example video to see how it should look like during laning phase).

Pop Blossom (R)
Decent CC. is mostly used for setting up a kill.

Itemization

This will be your first item to rush. does more DPS than as your first item. 9% of the targets current health does a lot to help out 's early low base AD. will also scale very well into the mid/late game.

will be the 2nd item to get due to how well this item synergizes with . So much attack speed, gives AD AP, attack speed stats, and passive allows to empower auto in 2 autos when fully stacked on 's passive.

Is the new item for season 14 and synergizes really well with it. auto attacks a lot and is able to proc the light and dark passive fast. makes Tanky, gets free arm pen stats, great attack speed and AD, and good on hit damage.

With Runaan's Hurricane can empower passive in one auto.

Gameplay

Early Game

Early Game is all about Bully Lane Dominance. Focus mainly on zoning your opponent from CSing and gaining experience. Keep your distance and don't over extend with your auto attacks due to minion aggro that can deal a lot of damage to you. Minion aggro can lead to bad trades in laning phase and your opponent can punish your mistake for it. Remember that wins in a lot of match ups in the top lane so focus also on getting plate golds. Ward whenever you get the chance since Top is very easy to gank.
(Note: Always remember that can win in most 2v2s with so dont be afraid of 2v2ing with your jungler for the first blood or free kills.)

Mid/Late Game

After Laning phase is over we head to the mid game where things get a little spicy with the damage. Just remember that AD does scale into the late game. Focus on split pushing to create a lot of map pressure which helps your team get objectives and farm safely. while split pushing, try to focus on also taking the enemies jungle camps. AD is able to take jungle camps pretty fast with her damage. Place Vision around the enemy jungle while your split pushing to help your team with vision. Do not focus much on team fighting since AD is more better off split pushing. Split push yourself to victory and remember to not get caught!

Conclusion

Thank you everyone who took the time to read my guide. I would really appreciate if you can check out my Twitch Channel anytime if you want to learn more about AD . Please also remember that this is not a troll pick and can legitimately help you climb to the Goal Rank you're looking forward to.
