Hello everyone, I’m Khym!

After several days watching Chinese stream and Iguana PBE Masters tournament I will provide some useful information for you to understand the meta.

Keep in mind this is the first patch of set 11 so some supprising things may happen, you can always scroll down to changelog section to know if there is something new, I will keep updating through out 2 weeks.

For newcomers don't miss my set 11 comp list!

These shortened links have no ads, I just want to make my post look succinct

Recommended comps

These comps perform really well in tournament which are realiable to climb

1. Legendary flex

Advertisement

There are 2 groups: big cluster (2) and small cluster (1, 3, 4, 5)

  • 2 is your base combined with non 5 cost 1 at lv 8. Morgana and Kayn hold items.
  • Sell 1, move items, keep 2 core to combine with 3 or 5 base on first 2* 5 cost
  • 3, 4 and 5 can mix together
  • If you want to put more unit, just add Hwei > Sage, Dragonlord

In short, make a good board with Morgana & Kayn with Sage, Dragonlord. Then find Rakan, Wukong and 2* Azir or Hwei group at lv 9

2. Exalted flex

3 Fated gives Syndra 10% dmg bonus, and 1 effect to other Fated, at 5 break points Syndra gets 20% and a bonus to 4 others Fated. Exalted at lv 9 gives 13% dmg bonus TO YOUR WHOLE TEAM not to mention 1 exp every round. In the end 3 Exalted (bronze trait) is nearly close to 4 Fated (silver trait). Its a good trade to sacrifice your main trait.

Stand United is broken with Exalted, in this post I link all sources of Exalted comp list:

One strategy I found better than the original link (Exalted with 6 3 cost) maybe this will be highly contested but in case not (due to new set) rolling 3* Soraka at lv 7 with Janna Alune or Tristana Lessin then cap with Wukong Rakan. If Diana can't 3 stars, give her items to Rakan, it's broken!

3. Ghostly Senna

Ghostly is surprisingly strong, there are many ways to flex but Senna is OP

Quick explain how Ghostly works: it stack Dmg and move Spectre whenever an enemy die, so you can play fast 8 style with any "bursting dmg" unit like Kai'Sa and Syndra

Don't forget to slam Shred item because Spectre deal AP dmg

Many HP-scaled units in set 11 to get benefit from Build Diff, the comp strong from early to late game and very flexible

You can read my strategy here, I optimize to play with any item component and utilize HP-scaled units as much as I can: https://bitly.cx/builddiff

The best and highly contested comp right now, don't play with Mythic

In future Mythic will get a buff and you may need this one: https://bitly.cx/bardreroll

Sorry I use Rek'Sai instead of Voidspawn xD

I was confused when hearing people playing Heavenly Kayn Morgana because that comp has a weird frontline (many frontline units with Orrn). Turn out pro players play this with Voidspawn from Zz'Rot lmao

It will definitely get a nerf in the next patch! https://bitly.cx/finevintage

The only AD comp can fight against Azir/Hwei. Next patch I will write a guide because this comp has lots of options to cook

Runaan is the best item on Irelia, no matter your next items!

Illaoi Porcelain Emblem in Aphelios team

Honorable mention

These comps are just slighly a bit behind those broken comp above, you can think these are A tier comp, still good enough and can win with strong synergies

Weak units/traits you may want to avoid

Units:

  • Kha'Zix: just a top 4 comp and less reliable than Warden Gnar
  • Soraka: not only weak but also highly contested by other comps to 3*
  • Sett: weakest 5 cost, just a trait activator, if you got melee items prefer on Udyr, Rakan, Wukong
  • All champions augment Kobuko, Garen and Yorick, Shen is fine

Trait:

  • Mythic: pro players tend to mix with 5 cost more than go for 5, 7 Mythic
  • Inkshadow: got a heavy nerf in PBE
  • Dryad (without Emblem): Warden Gnar is still ok, but Kindred Gnar 4 Dryad are really bad after this nerf
