I haven't tried this guide yet but it looks like a blast. The only downside is the lack of HP, so you are entirely reliant on your ult. I am also not sure how well Kayle can initially clear the jungle.

Why do you build runaans?

(2) |

Due to Kayle's E, Righteous Fury, already doing AoE damage, building Runaan's Hurricane gives you extra damage AoE, extra attack speed, and extra crit chance which helps tremendously with her kit - especially late game.

The build of Kayle ADC?

Yes, what about it?

Ahh I see, website glitched out, let me reload everything in. Thanks for the notice!

The build should now be correctly showing.

lethal tempo is ***

To each his own; however, with lethal tempo through using this build, you reach up to 3.36 attack speed and do an average DPS of 2050 which is enough to 1v5 which is incredibly easy with your ult. I definitely recommend trying it out if you haven't before, but that's all I'll say on the matter.

Have a great day

Great guide! I love it :) I do have a question tho; I like to player with with the same primary tree but the sorcery tree as a secondary. Obviously I take the ultimate hat as one but I keep switching between Transcendence and Gathering Storm, not sure what I like more. Can you tell me your thoughts about this? Can she use the extra scaling of Gathering Storm or is Transcendence better even though you rarely build over max CDR cap. Thank you!

Thanks man :) Appreciate it! So in my opinion, getting a max amount of CDR on Kayle is definitely pretty important so that you can useRighteous Fury before it runs out in order to seam it better; however, Gathering Storm late game does add quite a bit of AD/AP to your build. Let me do some testing to figure out which I think works into the build better and I'll let you know :)

So I tested a few different things out, if you're going to go the sorcery tree for your second, I would, personally, go Transcendence and Gathering Storm rather than go Ultimate Hat. Your ultimate already has a pretty low cooldown, and if you're going for more of a mage build, between Nashor's Tooth, Transcendence, and Blue Buff, that's max CDR right there. As well, I'm assuming you're using this build for mid/top lane which means that for your situational item, you can build either a Zhonya's Hourglass or a Banshee's Veil so that you go to 40% CDR and when you get blue buff, you gain that extra damage from Transcendence.

I totally agree with you with transcendence because if you want permanent E at CDR cap you can get a more gold and slot efficient build thanks to the 10% extra CDR, but gathering storm is kind of wasted in this fast paced short match meta. Also the math suggests On-hit effects are the priority stat this patch for kayle. So in my opinion ultimate hat would be better.
What's your opinion on the matter dyros?
