Tips & Tricks
- Golden Ox has not been optimized yet; this section will get updated as it gets more optimized.
- Current theory is this: Play 6 Golden Ox ASAP. Get as much gold and resources as you can from the trait. Stay ahead of tempo from 4-2 onwards by having more upgrades from rolling aggressively on 8 and hitting Ox intervals. Hold extra Jarvans if there aren’t too many players with him on their board
- Golden Ox emblem makes it MUCH easier to hit 4 Golden Ox earlier as you won’t need a 4 cost and 6 Golden Ox earlier since you no longer need Viego. It also allows you to drop Graves for Mordekaiser once you do find Viego which is a big spike.
- Most of the Golden Ox trait power is providing you extra gold and components. Win conditions are level 10 adding Mordekaiser, level 9 with 4 Golden Ox and many upgraded 5 Costs (see “Max Cap” variation) or Aphelios / Annie 3.
- Itemize Leona over Jarvan if you don’t have Jarvan 3.
- Can play Yuumi before Aurora, but play Aurora once you hit her even though you lose A.M.P.

- Level to 4 if you have upgrades and a good item to place on one of those upgrades.
- Level to 5, unless on 3 loss streak.
- Level to 6 if on 4+ win streak (scout to see if necessary in high elo) or can stay above 40g.
- Level to 6, unless you would go below 30g. If you have to stay level 5 due to low gold (rare), then level to 6 on 3-5.
- Level to 7 if you can stay above 30g, otherwise stay level 6.
- Level to 7.
- Level to 8. Roll for desired comp until stable. “Stable” changes depending on rank, items, augments, composition, and patch. Melee carries and tanks get the biggest spike for 2-stars. Usually stable involves 2-star tank or carry and some other supporting 2-stars. Try not to roll below 10g.
- If you are weak (e.g., have no 2-star 4-costs), consider rolling again to 10g here. If you are stable, save gold to go 9.
- If you are low HP and haven’t 2-starred your carry and tank, roll to 0g. If you have medium to high HP with an upgraded + itemized 4-cost unit and some other upgrades, save gold to go 9.
- If high HP, consider waiting until 5-5 to go level 9. If medium HP, consider going level 9 if you can roll 20g or wait until 5-5. If low HP and can afford to go 9, do so even if you have almost no gold to roll on 9. If you can’t afford to go 9 this game, roll every turn for upgrades.
- Level to 9 if possible. From this point onward, look to level to 9. Acknowledge games where level 9 is not possible and roll every turn on 8 to preserve placements.
- For max cap games, you can either roll on 9 or level to 10. If you are itemizing a 5-cost carry and it is 1-starred, roll on 9. If you have all your main itemized units upgraded, level to 10.
