Description
The build centers around rushing the highest AP value relative to the cost and pairing it with widened firestrikes, for ease of hitting the many chokes present on the Stadium maps. With how HP scales in Stadium, you should consistently be able to 1-shot non-tanks with damage boost or with some auxiliary damage from your team. Otherwise, 2 firestrikes will kill.
,
, and
are the core items to the build, with
being the most frequently bought green item. Look to firestrike chokes that are frequently walked through, or line it up where you are hitting the tank and at least one person behind. This usually puts too much pressure on their healers, and there will be an opportunity to all in and win the team fight.
Why is
the most broken item in the game?
Well, to put it simply, we can find out how many stats we're gaining for a given cost, and call it the "stat efficiency". Per 1000 Stadium Cash:
(1,000 Cash): 10% AP
(5,500 Cash): ~3.64% AP
(13,500 Cash): ~2.96% AP
(4,000 Cash): 2.50% AP
As you can see, green items are the most efficient for the cost, and will continue to help you farm money throughout the game. Everything else not core to the build is lower stat efficiency, because they are on higher tiers or add additional stats/effects. You almost always want to fill out your build with 3 greens instead of a blue if possible, because of how stat efficiency works in this mode.
