👑 SET 12 META COMPS

💬 INTRO

➜ When should I play 6/8 Portals?

  • you have a good portal opener or portal spatula and its a meta composition

➜ What type of composition?

  • fast 8 / reroll at 7 for carry Ezreal

➜ Component priority?

  • for Ezreal: glove > sword > bow
  • for Ryze: rod > tear > bow

What does Portal do?

Your Portal Champions get a shield at the start of the round for 15 sec. When combat starts and every 3 seconds Portal can give you something: damage to enemies (Ziggs bomb) , increased attack speed (Jarvan flag), healing (Poro snack), and also call a Krug to help! Starting from 6+ Portal can also give items (1 for 6 Portal, 2 for 8 Portal) the distribution of which you can control. How? The logic is the same as Milio.

  • tiebreaker is the number of items the unit has: 2>1>component
  • example of receiving items from Portal. But there is one nuance. At the moment it is completely random when you get a cast of items from Portal, it can happen in the first cast or not happen at all for the entire fight
  • but I still recommend using this feature when playing Portal!

  • we want to play from the fact that Portal will give us items from his cast. Since it doesn't matter to us whether Ryze has 2 items or 3 at the beginning of the fight. But if you have the opportunity to give Ryze a good 3rd Carry item - do it
  • before you hit Norra you should play Bastion unit + Jayce
  • if you found Norra and she has items, you can play Mage (Vex) instead of Bastion
  • or you always play a mage at level 9 for Norra

  • if you have a good spot for rerolling Portal, then collect as many 3 star champions as possible but go lvl-up after you hit 3 star Ezreal for 8 Portal
  • you can also play around carry Kassadin and reroll at level 6 and then level up to play 6 portals at level 7, and 8 at level 9 (play around Hecarim +1)

  • Portal value scales with star level
  • don't forget that you can play 6 Portal at level 6! Sometimes you can roll for this (from the high cost units we only need Ezreal, if we have spatula of course)

  • since Portal gives us a lot of shield at the beginning of the round, augments that gain strength over time (crit/haste) are good! Also Unified is a great up augment as it increases the defense stats, making shields more valuable

What is the win condition?

  • level 9 with Norra and Diana
  • reroll variation is pretty strong to win games but it also needs to be level 9 with legendary units (Norra/Diana/Camille if playing Kassadin variation)
