Guide Intro

This guide is centered around Rora's passive gameplay.
Mainly around giving her enough kite potential, Attack Speed and AP to proc her passive consistently in the style of Vayne and play more as a top/mid ADC.

Note: (Role Testing: I have not yet tested this build much for Jungle or Support).

Note: (Disclaimer/Usage: Most of this is common knowledge added for beginners but some may by my own person thing, my own personal terms would be Highlighted dark blue, the others light blue).

Stat Terms

• AD: Attack Damage: How much physical damage stat you get (blocked by Armour [see: Ar]).
• AP: Ability Power: How much magiccal damage stat you get (blocked by Armour [see: Ar]).
• Ar: Armour: How much physical damage you mitigate/reduce
• MR: Magic Resistance: How much magical damage you mitigate/reduce
• phys Physical (Damage): Discusses physical stat/damage (amplified by AD)
• mgkMagic (Damage): Discusses magical stat/damage (amplified by AP)

General Ability Guide

Passive: Spirit Abjuration

This is our bread and butter core mechanic for this build.
We're proccing this baby non-stop for the % max HP damage and slow heal.

Q: Twofold Hex

W: Across the Veil

E: The Weirding

R: Between Worlds

Itemization

The main ideas with her more traditional builds are burn/burst based items.
This build leans into her passive which is boosted by items that do the following:

• More AP (boosts passive %HP dmg)
• More AS (more proccing passive and on-hit)
• More Magic Penetration (Indirectly amplifies passive damage as well)

Item Theory

Core Items

• Nashor's Tooth
  • Generally first item
  • Ideal Build Path: Blasting Wand -> Fiendish Codex -> Recurve Bow

Item Clarifications

Why Is Guinsoo Not Core?

Simply skipping to Terminus gives an insane utility item for both damage and tank and gives sufficient attack speed for some good ADC style kiting.
Guinsoo is then not needed for more AS.

The on-hit benefit feels out-weighed by the benefit of opting into amplifying the strength of the passive % max HP dmg with the low AP the item gives.

So it feels overall better to skip straight into some proper AP items.

Note: (Disclaimer: These are midlane MUs specifically, all champions are assumed to be Midlaning or Jungling as specified with YOU playing Rora mid).

Note: (Disclaimer: Any Champion not specifically mentioned should be sufficiently covered under generically labelled sections).

MU Advantage: Range + Mobility

Examples: Garen

MU Disadvantage: Range

Examples: Viktor, Syndra

Nothing special.

Casual player who really likes fun off-meta builds, mainly attack speed, mobility and adc mid stuff.

Mainly like rora for this highly mobile AS build and well...she's super floofy and that's amazing.

I slso main (Mostly midlance ADCs): Zerri (Primary OTP, all roles), Vayne (top/mid/bot), Kai'sa (top/mid/bot), Irellia (top/mid)

Hope y'all have fun with this build!
