Stage-by-Stage Tips

Stage 2

Ideally start the game with an early 4 protector, Janna is going to be our early game carry with Akali items.

Stage 3

Level with the lobby and try to fill out your traits to save hp. If you hit early Akali you can transition immediately. Econ up for level 8.

Stage 4

Level to 8 and roll for 6 Protector, Akali, and Ryze. Ideally get upgrade 4 costs before pushing to level 9. 5 cost, Jarvan, or Supreme Cell on 9.
