BASTION VOLIBEAR Patch 25.17

For this composition to consistently perform well, either an artifact or edgelord emblem is fairly necessary. This is not a composition you should expect to play very often if you are trying to climb, as it is very niche.

Gameplan (Level 8 Standard):
Do you best to make econ thresholds while building a strong board, but make sure to level to maintain tempo with the rest of the lobby. (Tempo = The average strength of a board in the lobby).

Try to follow standard interval timings when possible. Standard intervals are the 1st, 2nd, and 5th round of every stage.
Generally, you want to be:
- Level 4 on 2-1
- Making 10+ gold by 2-2
- Level 5 on 2-5
- Making 20+ gold by the end of 2-6
- Level 6 on 3-2 with 40+ gold
- Level 7 on 3-5 with 30+ gold
- Level 8 on 4-2

These numbers will change often based on how many or how few resources are in your specific game, and how the lobby tempo plays out. But generally, this is what you can expect in an average game of TFT. When economically ahead, you can consider "skipping" intervals, and when you're economically behind, you may need to wait for the next standard interval before spending money.

General Tips:
1. Do not angle this line unless you specifically have a strong reason to (AKA edgelord emblem, flickerblade, or any other strong artifact)
2. Main tank Leona always
3. After Volibear items, tank items and Braum items are ideal
4. Samira is your utility holder.
5. Since Samira is such an awful unit, you can sometimes consider sticking on Xayah/Rell instead of Xin Zhao/Samira until you're Samira 2* Xayah 2* > Samira 1*
