In the League of Legends community, Rek'Sai's top lane dominance has been a bit of a hidden gem, often overlooked and underestimated. However, it's time to shed some light on the true opportunity that lies within this uncommon pick. With an impressive winrate of over 54% in Korea, Rek'Sai's top lane build has proven to be powerful in the hands of the player 'cut'.

Starting Items: Doran's Blade and potion as the go-to option. Consider Doran's Shield against hard poke champions like Gnar, Ryze, Jayce, Varus, etc.

Mythic Item: Stridebreaker enhances Rek'Sai's engage potential and kiting abilities, making her more threatening in skirmishes and teamfights.

Hullbreaker: A game-changer for Rek'Sai, enabling fast split pushing and tower destruction with her un-burrowed Q on towers.

Core Items: Black Cleaver complements her abilities and synergizes well with Conqueror, providing armor shred and extra health.

Survivability: Sterak's Gage offers a shield and survivability when taking significant damage, keeping Rek'Sai in fights longer.

Adaptation: Maw of Malmortius against heavy magic damage teams, providing magic resistance and a lifeline shield.

Safety Net: Guardian Angel offers a second chance, reviving upon death and enabling further aggression.

Boots: Plated Steelcaps (vs heavy AD) or Mercury's Treads (vs heavy AP/CC) are go-to options for top lane or jungle Rek'Sai.

Situational Items: Anathema's Chains for tankiness and lane dominance. Dead Man's Plate for increased mobility. Force of Nature as a solid choice against heavy magic damage. Titanic Hydra for damage, tankiness, and clear speed. Lord Dominik's Regards for armor-stacked opponents. Warmog's Armor for extreme tankiness and health regeneration. Choose wisely based on the situation.
