Samira Description

Abilities!

Guns and swords!

Samira - Stylish Slayer
Ranged, Melee, Marksman, Assassin

Style?: More than you could ever need!
Comboing?: Never seen before.
Speciality: Slaying on your enemies!
Why should you pick Samira? , at the time of writing, is one of the best adc's at the moment (according to u.gg, based on Plat+), able to style on your enemies without a second thought! Although, for real, Samira is able to output high amounts of damage in a short amount of time, the damage being amplified in melee range. Being able to gap close and overall get right in the enemies face means you'll be up close and personal, able to deal massive amounts of damage while lifestealing the damage back with , , and more! herself is everything you could ask for in an adc - decent amounts of range, a windwall (), dashing multiple times and resetting her cooldown, then releasing to deal massive amounts of damage! Below, the pro's and con's of are described in more detail. STYLE ON THEM!

Pros and Cons!

PROS

+lots of burst/damage output!
+high snowball potential!
+AMAZING in teamfights!
+W is able to block gamechanging ults!
+High skill ceiling - lots of resets, combos, and more to be learned.
+Easily the most fun ADC at the moment! Never boring and always fun to combo.
Samira, as stated, has much outplay potential and a lot of combos and mechanics that most Samira players wouldn't consider - this could range from auto resetting with passive and q to finding the perfect combo with your abilities, to even flashing out of a wall only to e back to them to head back into the fray! thrives off of getting early kills and snowballing, along with getting early trades to ensure her safety in the laning phase and past that so she doesn't fall off. W can block ults such as , , , and more! Bursting down squishies is a primary aspect for , getting her resets off and styling on idiots, as she says. With all of those strengths, teamfights are where she shines, deleting the team with her rapidfire .

CONS

-Useless when behind.
-Suffers into heavy cc.
-Suffers into tanks.
-Hard to master, easy to play.
-Either devours or is starving.
-Fails into assassins.
As stated, once behind, turns into a walking sack of gold. There isn't much she can do much assist with tickling them with and similar tactics. If a , , , etc. lock onto you, you're also just going to fall and die. There isn't much you can do but try to dodge their abilities and outlive with or . Heavy cc kills her but can save her in moments along with or a tank support that can soak cc. Samira's skill ceiling is rather high, her combos having to be precise to achieve S rank at the quickest time possible to ensure her core damage. Into people like , you have to be careful or you'll deal little damage while they'll kill you. Tanks are a huge counter to the squishy adc that is!

Abilities

PASSIVE
ABILITY

Daredevil Impulse (Passive):INNATE - STYLE: Samira's damaging basic attacks and abilities against at least one enemy Champion different from the previous damaging hit made against champions generate a Style stack for 6 seconds, which refreshes on subsequent hits and stacks up to 6 times.

Samira gains 0% − 21% (based on Style stacks) bonus .

Daredevil Impulse.png
INNATE: Samira's basic attacks against targets in Range model.png 200 range use her blade, becoming Projectile.png non-projectile. Blade attacks on-hit, , and the slash and explosives of deal 2 − 19 (based on level) (+ 3.5% − 10.5% (based on level) AD) bonus magic damage, increased by 0% − 100% (based on target's missing health).

Samira's basic attack against an immobilized target is empowered to have an uncancelable windup and deal the attack's damage over 6 strikes in 0.5 seconds. If the target is a monster or is airborne, the attack also knocks them up for 0.5 seconds. Samira will dash into her attack range from the target if they are nearby, though not through terrain.

The empowered attack resets Samira's basic attack timer, is affected by critical strike modifiers, applies on-hit effects only once, and cannot occur on the same target more than once every few seconds.

TL:DR : Hitting a champion (does not have to be one unique champ) with different abilities in whatever order gives bonus movement speed. You can dash to immobilzed targets and deal the same amount of damage an auto would do. (Note: This counts as an auto reset). If the target is airborne, can knock them up for a short duration. Attacks in melee range deal bonus magic damage and apply on hit effects.

Q

Flair (Q):

ACTIVE: fires a shot in the target direction that deals physical damage to the first enemy hit.

If a targetable enemy is in front of at the time of cast, she will instead slash with her blade in a cone, dealing the same damage to enemies hit.

Casting during will deploy explosives in her wake that detonate upon the end of the dash, dealing the same damage to enemies hit.

can Critical Strike for (25% + 35% 35%) bonus physical damage and will apply at 66.6% effectiveness.

TL:DR: casts a shot in the target direction if out of melee range, otherwise the damage is dealt in a cone in melee range. Can be casted during and . can Critical Strike for a lower amount of physical damage and applies lifesteal at a lower effectiveness.

W

Blade Whirl (W):

ACTIVE: spins her blade over 0.75 seconds, destroying hostile non-turret projectiles within the area for the duration. This includes ultimate abilities such as , , , , and more. Some abilities such as will be blocked from targeting you but will remain on the ground for its duration until it explodes. You can't block some abilities such as , , , and others.

slashes twice during , each one dealing physical damage to all nearby enemies. The first slash occurs immediately and the second one occurs after the duration.

TL:DR: slashes her blade around her twice, blocking all non-turret projectiles. This excludes some projectiles but mostly all of them. The duration of is only .75 seconds.

E

Wild Rush (E):

ACTIVE: dashes in the direction of the target enemy or enemy structure (includes and Nexus), dealing magic damage to enemies she passes through. She also gains bonus attack speed for 3 seconds.

Scoring a takedown against an enemy champion within 3 seconds of damaging them resets 's cooldown.

can cast or during . Using will buffer it to cast at the end of the dash.

TL:DR: dashes through a scructure/enemy (NOT allies) and deals magic damage while also gaining attack speed for a short duration. Getting takedowns resets the cooldown of this ability.

R

Inferno Trigger (R):
ACTIVE: unleashes a torrent of shots for 2.277 seconds, reducing her movement speed by 30% and rapidly shooting at nearby enemies over 2.013 seconds at sporadic times in 0.2-second intervals each, dealing physical damage with each shot, reduced by 75% against minions.

Each shot can Critically Strike for (75% + 35% 35%) bonus physical damage and applies at 66.6% effectiveness.

cannot attack nor cast and during , but she can still move. will end prematurely by all forms of cast-inhibiting crowd control as well as disarm. Root does not cancel the ult, but Suppression, Silence, Airborne, Knockup, and will. Hook's like will also cancel .

TL:DR: Once at S rank, can cast , shooting rapidly in a wide radius and stopping around 2.3 seconds after initial cast. These shots can critically strike and apply lifesteal at lower damage/less healing. Stun/silence/etc. cancels this ult while it's casting.

Taunt

Coin (Taunt):
Very small add on, but 's taunt will deal 1 true damage if the coin casted hits the target. This counts towards 's style gauge and can be used in combos. This removes 1 gold from 's inventory and gives one gold to the enemy.

Summoners

Flash

Literally always go flash on . There isn't a reason on why you shouldn't! It's a free disengage that you can always back into or a free escape over a wall, a dash into a bush to hide from the enemy to get your abilities back up, etc. ALWAYS. GO. FLASH.

Heal

I myself prefer heal due to the added healing you get with it along with the bonus which stacks onto your from the style stacks. Most spells are personal preference, so I often end up running this. It's up to you, though!

Exhaust

in the current meta is very strong for and other squishies. With a oneshot prodominant meta, damage reduction and a movement speed slow on any target is essential. With 's themselves countering , this helps her to survive quick burst such as or . Overall, this spell works best to help assist your laning and trades in general while also helping you to live after the 2/4 rotates to bot lane to try and snag a double kill. Summoner spells are personal preference so go what you wish!

Ignite

is also really strong on ! This will ... somewhat guarantee that you can outheal your enemy in early trades while also burning them down a bit in terms of damage. With how little hp have in the bot lane, this spell will burn through a chunk of their hp in the early game and can help to assist with getting 's cooldown off. Since herself will often follow engages this helps to ensure kills/takedowns. I'd go this if you have an enchantress support with lots of healing and shielding such as or . IT BURNS!!!

Cleanse

needs to not be cc'd to apply her ult so go if the team has LOTS of cc/if you're heading into a lane like where you're going to get chunked from his stun combo. This spell really helps to keep her up and in the fray of fights, guaranteeing she won't be cc chained for a bit. Overall, goes this into lanes where you know you won't be able to do much early and need to get out of cc links (, , , etc).

Other spells aren't necessary/aren't good on . This goes for , , and . It's truly up to you though!

Typical Runes!

Precision!

Is the only thing you should be running on . Free damage amp and a small amount of healing, allowing her to vamp from multiple enemies in teamfights to stay alive *just* a little longer. Conqueror goes hand in hand with her abilities, all of which can proc 's full passive very quickly (for example, applies two stacks. Auto only applies one). It is such a seamless rune for and one of, if not, the best!.

is super good for . Free gold and healing in the middle of fights can save her and works very well with . Overall, this rune is better than and due to snowball potential and helping to outlive early-late fights and give her *just* a little more gold! isn't necessary anymore as they cut off 's mana cost, and won't be utilized much as you'll definitely be targeted in teamfights. It's the life of an adc. :(

Is also a really good rune for . Free lifesteal and a little more hp, which also pair perfectly with ! Survivability is key to winning teamfights and for her to not get popped like a balloon (or maybe a )... anywho, isn't the best as she won't be attacking as much as somebody like or . works if the team has heavy amounts of cc and you need that little amount of oomph to rid you of or something similar... CANT MOVE!!

works really well with as in teamfights and early game you're going to get LOW. You will definitely be under 60-30 percent and paired with this rune can help you dish out damage before death... if you die, that is. can be used against comps with s and s that will definitely have a lot more hp than you, and works against squishies/enemies you can collect easily with . "It's all a matter of perspective."

Secondary Runes

is helpful to soak more damage and reduce the amount the enemy does, overall a decent rune for if you're going into lanes where you'll be poked to death (I.E ).

is very situational, only helpful into mostly magic damage teams filled with mages and of the sort. It is not the best, but it is not the worst if you need forms of survivability so a roaming doesn't oneshot you.

is useful towards late game where you'll be getting a lot of bonus AD from it. Helpful for late game comps with a lot of scaling champs (, , , etc). If you know you're not gonna win early and want to focus purely on the mid-late game, go this rune.

is free armor and mr along with bonuses to all resistances in the late early game - helps if you need to be just a bit more tanky in fights so you're not bursted down immediately. Pairs well with ( also works really well with !) to get more tenacity when you're lower in fights, which is inevitable for .

is alright, giving you even more with your Style stacks. ZOOM!

is... alright, you don't get that much value out of it as long as you can dodge the majority of abilities heading your way in the laning phase. The healing isn't substanstial but paired with you're going to be alive for a while in lane. Go into lanes with heavy poke/lanes you don't win into.

is not that good on but it is a choice if you're going to pair it with or . You could go this if was optimal on like it was before, but now it's not. It's not worth taking this rune but it's up to you.

works if you have somebody such as support or a laner with heavy slows and cc, you can quickly dash in and get into the fight even faster with this rune. It's not that bad but works if you aren't able to catch up to them due to slows (for example if you're laning into and he uses ). Situational overall!

helps to keep yourself alive with lane with added sustain and just a bit of healing. It's good on and probably what you should go in most games (if you're going the keystone secondary).

gives extra lethality once you . Free damage! YIPEE! Purely up to preference if you're deciding between going or this rune.

gives free ad for takedowns. YIPEE! Probably the best out of the 3 ward runes for as she won't utilize or much. If you're in high elo you can take either of the 3 as in games you and your support are probably going to spam wards.

is not that good, you need boots in lane to get the bonus resistances to help yourself live but it's alright if you're into a lane you win into, such as . Up to you!

is free gold when you get a unique takedown. YIPEE! Helps with snowballing from the early-mid game as you'll get a hefty 700+ gold from this. (NOTE: if you're going keystone then this works really well with and is often what many mains go). "Buy something nice. On me."

Finally, helps to give yourself some bonus health and works really well with . Very nice if you need to be a bit tanky for teamfights/general lane/trades/etc. as you'll be, most likely, above the enemy adc's hp.

Items (all that you can go)

Mythic Items

Immortal Shieldbow

This is probably the best Mythic for . A free shield when you get low (which pairs perfectly with , , , and more) and is overall perfect for her. Free , attack damage/speed, and bonus health and more ad from the Mythic passive itself. This item has saved me countless times in many many fights and overall it is such an all around, well-balanced (stats wise) item for ! YOU SHOULD GO IT!

Kraken Slayer

is situational on and pairs best if you're going to be an auto based champ and need to take down s and of the latter. Generally good into comps where you know you won't be able to kill with a typical combo but need something more. Pairs well with also!

Goredrinker

Personally, I don't reccomend because you'll need to be at a safe distance to get to S rank, and you have to be fairly close to use . The ability haste is useless because your abilities don't really need to be any shorter, but the omnivamp is nice. This item isn't for me but if you want to use it you can.

Legendary Items

The Collector

is a perfect second item on that I often rush. This makes it so that you're guaranteed your e resets and this makes your snowball potential even greater with runes such as and . Getting your resets off in a fight is amazing as you'll be dashing around everywhere, enemies unsure of where to throw their cc/abilities. This item is overall really good on her and one of the best that she works with!

Infinity Edge

is also one of 's legendary items to grab as it amps her damage even more allowing for her ult to do tremendous damage at only 3 items. I have no complaints about this item other than it is very costly, so you might want to (if you're behind) rush something like or a similar item, then buy this one next. It's all about BUSINESSS!!

Lord Dominik's Regards

pairs extremely well with and I often rush it into most comps as with the current meta, tanks have tons of hp and armor ((... haha!! 80 armor item) and with the durability update in basically a day or so (at time of writing), this item is going to be necessary for . Fights are going to be a lot longer and she can dish out more damage at the same time, thus making this item very strong on her.

Guardian Angel

Not much to say about but it's a free revive, grab it if you're well fed and know you'll be focused in fights. The added on armor is very nice and the revive itself can be extremely powerful ( and revive... REVIVES FOR DAYS).

Death's Dance

is amazing on . The item itself is very strong in the current meta (it is getting nerfed in the next few days but the nerf is not substantial enough to kill the item itself). With a pool to ignore damage and even more healing, this item can be a nice grab and can be swapped with or depending on the team comp at hand. JACKPOT!

Maw of Malmortius

If you're not going and going something like or , then this item works very well and gives a LOT of healing. Paired with and you'll be basically unkillable. Watch out for the waiting in the bushes though... 's will still kill you fairly quickly! As a note, I rarely build this item, it's not the best just insanely situational.

Mortal Reminder

Not much to say but this item is good on . If you have an enchanter support, don't build this, just beg them to buy and go for a different item. I often don't build this in most games as the rest of the team has antiheal (with the meta being so focused around healing nearly everybody on your team will have some form of antiheal).

Serpent's Fang

is another situational item that I build only if the team has tons of shielding. Comps with more than one enchantress (might be a top incident), go this or ask another person on your team to build it. It is not the best on as you're losing out on 20 crit and won't get to the pure 100 chance, but it's alright. If you cannot get through the enemys shields then go it, simply.

Mercurial Scimitar

Go this item if the team has somebody such as or and you need to save yourself from their ults. The added mr also counters magic based comps so go it if the team is majorly ap.

Essence Reaver

I almost never go this item. It's not the best on but if you need to spam from a safe distance then build it. I really don't reccomend this item though, it's super situational and you dont get much value out of it.

Bloodthirster

is a really good buy for if you know you're going to be in long teamfights and need the extra . With this item being unchanged after the mass sustainability/lifesteal nerfs (other than the shield itself), you still get 20 percent from this. It's a very good buy on and you can swap it out for or something similar. I often go this last because you don't really need the extra lifesteal it gives, offers plenty and gives even more.

Plated Steelcaps

I only really go if the enemy team has mostly ad. That's all that I can really say about it!

Mercury's Treads

Go it if they have lot's of CC and/or mr. I often go this to get out of cc chains just a bit quicker. CC kills quickly!

Berserker's Greaves

I don't go this much but if you want extra and don't need the extra resistances (for example if you are very ahead and already have items that can resist against this such as a tank/bruiser item such as ), or purely if you want to and feel like it. Up to you!

The next few items are very situational.

if you HAVE to frontline and have no or anybody that can frontline. Really situational, build it around your comp if needed.

is good to counter a hypercarry like , , , etc. go it if your team won't build it and there is a fed hypercarry on the enemy team. This item also gives LOTS of hp so you'll be alive a little longer!

if they are ad focused with crit (a comp like ,,, etc) and packed with ad. This item is very good but you have to use the active right or it is useless. Use it for the carries!

is basically a dead item at this point but if you aren't building or , then go this. It's a free shield and can keep you alive a little longer.

is for turbohealing and if you have an enchantress like that can heal you over and over for the entire fight. HEAAALINGG!!

Early - Middle - Late

Early Game

s early is a little better than a lot of , depending on your laners/support. Pre 6 you are missing LOTS of damage but this does not mean that cannot do as much, still. If your support (somebody such as or ) hits a hook, go in and commit to the fight, even if it costs you a death. Early gold is essential to hitting her powerspike, or an earlier one, . Try to fight in melee range so you get that little extra magic damage from your autos and . If you are going into a losing lane, farm with and be careful to not get too close. If you can, try to force a fight at level 2-3 (depending on your support and their abilities) and go all in to try and secure kills. Rotate to when necessary or wait for when they're low afterwards to go and clean up. Early kills are essential for to snowball, but be careful to not int and die a lot.

Mid Game

Around the start to middle game, you should have at least two items which is a massive powerspike for you. With that, fight with your team for objectives and turrets but do NOT forget about farming. You NEED to farm on if you want to snowball and get ahead of their gold, so farming is essential. DO NOT forget about farming!! SERIOUSLY!! Try to get 1v1's out and kills, and be careful to not overextend for Turrets and of the sort. That is ZOOMING towards you right now! You can split push but if an objective is about to be up, go to the lane closest to towards it and prepare for a teamfight. Likewise with early game, if you cant engage in a fight, you can always clean up afterwards, like can! Getting picks teamfights is very essential but do not try to 1v1 the 0/2 or somebody similar. SHE WILL DEFINITELY KILL YOU. TL:DR: focus on farming and getting picks and rotating to teamfights. Don't overextend for turrets but shove waves if you must. Clean up fights or engage if you are fed.

Late Game

Okay, just to preface, late game is HARD for . By this point everybody has scaled even if scales a lot. Champions like , , , etc. are going to halfhealth you or even more with one ability. You have to wait for the right moment to engage or you're going to die immediately. BE CAREFUL in late game and wait for moments where you can cleanup a fight or get a pick beforehand to make the fight a little more in your favor. If the team is filled with Tanks and similar champions, you are going to struggle a lot. Overall, late game is challenging for because you're going to get bursted down quickly before you can deal your main source of damage (). Wait for ults/summoners to be used then put yourself into the fight. THIS DOES NOT MEAN that you should sit around and do no damage. Hit them with your and maybe some autos to stack . As well, try to stick with your support and go off of their cc and similar abilities. They can easily carry a fight! HONOR YOUR SUPPORTS! <3

Combos/tricks/tips/extras!

Combos

I want to preface this by saying has tons of combos with many different variations. There are many, and I won't put *all* of them, however here are a few key ones.

Auto - Q - Auto - Q - Auto - Q

This is probably the easiest combo that Samira can do in a safe manner. Begin by autoing into your , then auto, , auto, and you'll have S rank. This is one of the safest to perform as you'll be able to stack both style and conqueror and be able to get your S rank from a safe distance without them immediately killing you.

Auto - Q - Auto - E - Q - Auto

This one is very similar to the combo above, but this utilizes the into mechanic where your q now does damage in the line where you dash when casted. At the very end of this combo, you can quickly auto - then .

Auto - Q - W1 - E - W1 - Auto

This combo is a bit harder than others to pull off, but thanks to some solid programming, if you time it right, this combo will always work. - - works like this - the first slash can hit the target if in range, once you e onto them, the ability will buffer until the end of s dash and will thus combo. In simple terms, this guarantees W1 - E - W2 AS LONG AS is being casted during . I hope this isnt confusing!

Auto - E - Q - Auto - W - Auto

This one is hard to decipher due to very quick autos and animations that aren't very visible when looking at it in normal speed. The slow mo is below!

This combo is a favorite of mine as it gets you to S rank in under 3 seconds. You have to time your autos right, casting at nearly the same time that you casted your auto, then auto into and auto once more. It's very easy to mess up but with practice you can get it nailed down fairly quickly!

I am not going to post every single combo because most you can learn on your own after playing a lot of . These are purely interchangable and depend on how YOU cast your abilities in a fight and how you weave autos into it! The majority of fun in 's kit, for me, is her ability to combo in different ways in every game, even if some are faster than others. Her versatility comes from the fact that it depends on how YOU play on - do you prefer to play safe and get your autos and abilities in from afar or are you throwing yourself into the fight to get your S rank as soon as possible? It's up to you how you play and each player differs in every way! Combos are completely up to you, is what im trying to say. Play how YOU want to play!

Tricks and Tips

It might be hard to see, but a mechanic with is that the dash will ALWAYS dash to the very end of its length. This means that you can't control the dash length itself, but you *can* change it depending on where you are standing when you cast it. As shown in the clip, the dash always went to my ping, aka the end of its range. If you stand farther away, this will put you closer to the target. Closer to the target, you'll be sent farther away. It's an inverse relationship that's based on your position when is casted. This also does not change based on the angle of where you cast it from, the dash will always go to the very edge of the range. THINK FAST!

How Can I Add Coin To Combos?

Im going to start by saying adding your , Coin, to your combos is NOT practical in most cases. There are ways to do it but in most fights you won't properly be able to add it onto your combo gauge. HOWEVER, there are some neat combos you can pull off, such as the one below!

This is very hard to decipher so I'll break it down for you.
First, I hit the target with after casting , which gives me E rank, then I quickly which gives D. At this point the Coin hits so I get C rank, and afterwards I behind me, which gives B. Then, the second slash of goes off so I get A, and I get to S rank with an Auto. This combo requires very precise timing with your coin so be sure to practice it beforehand. Coin combos are NOT easy but once you have practice it becomes a lot smoother and easier to accomplish!

What Can I Dash To/Over?

It might be hard to see, but can dash over the wall with ,,,, and (last three not shown). For , this does NOT mean the thicker portion of the wall. It is possible to dash over wall with , but this is a lot harder, you have to get them very close to the wall, then dash over. She cannot dash over a wall with a because the range is too short/ wont get close enough to the wall. This also applies to because it never moves close enough to wall for you to onto it. can't dash to Honeyfruit, Blast Cone, or Scryer's Bloom, also. can dash over manmade walls such as from as long as a target is near it.

Oh, also, she can dash to enemy Turrets but not your own, shown here!

What Else?

Well, with basically everything I stated, the guide is coming to an end shortly ! Here are a few other noticeable aspects of .

hitting multiple champions with one ability does NOT count as multiple stacks of , only one. Say you hit a melee on three people, this will only give E rank.

The video below is what it looks like if you , get a reset, and again! You can basically fling yourself across the river if timed right. This is very good for escapes combined with your .
People have stated that there is a difference in healing when using auto - / - auto, however, with multiple tests, I found no differences at all. Do note however that gives reduced lifesteal (at 66 percent).
- is smoother than - . I've tested it many times in my hours in practice tool/ingame and there is a big difference.
Hitting an enemy with the same ability can be used in a precise combo if done right. Say if there are two enemies in front of you and you and - will give you E and will give D. If your is still going off and goes through the second enemy (or the same but the abilities are in a seperate order), this will give C, then 's second slash will give B. TL:DR: The same abilities can stack your passive if timed right.
Finally, look below at the last topic!

What Roles Does Samira Work In?

Although the fact that is a and works in bot lane the best, she CAN go top lane and mid lane. I've done it many times, and although it is situational (s are still going to oneshot despite the durability update... probably!), it does indeed work. Pick it if you would like to try it because bot lane is not for everybody and other lanes do work for if you would like to try it out. Have fun! <3

CONCLUSION!

Andd with that, my guide is over! Thank you so much for reading through this, I've always wanted to do this for a while now but never got the motivation to do so until a few days ago. This guide took a few days to construct and I'll be uploading it if major changes occur, but again thank you so so much for reading this through. I hope I helped you in your journey to becoming a player, if you wanted assistance on builds/runes/items/etc, and other aspects.

This guide would not be possible without Jhoijhoi's Making a Guide... Guide! . This helped tremendously with coding and saved me overall with everything I needed to know beforehand. Thank you very much! <3

I'll be eyeing this guide for changes following the durability patch (12.10), which at time of writing came out yesterday. I'll be making changes when necessary to ensure the guide is as accurate as possible.

And with that, this guide is over! Have fun being a stylish daredevil on the rift with ! Bye bye!
Also, if there are any errors/mistakes, comment them and I'll be sure to change it.
