Economy Strategy
- 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. Roll until stable. “Stable” changes depending on rank, items, augments, composition, and patch, but generally speaking it involves 2-starring your desired 2-cost carry and a tank with items. Major divergence between elos: The lower your elo, the less upgrades you need to be “stable” and thus lower elo players should generally roll less than high elo players on 3-2.
- After your 3-2 rolldown, you should attempt to rebuild your economy to 50g.
- Once you reach 50g (it might be later than 3-5), start slow rolling down to ~52g each turn. Try to avoid rolling to exactly 50g as any unit you want to buy in shop will put you below 50g.
- If you are high HP relative to the lobby, continue slow rolling to 52g each turn. If you are lower HP, you should roll to hit your first 2-cost 3 star on 4-1 or 4-2. If you have to roll below 30g, your placement is usually capped at 3rd or 4th.
- If you are still high HP (70+), you can continue to slow roll. Otherwise, in the majority of cases, you should roll deep for your 3-stars here. If your HP is low, you can even go to 0 gold looking for your 3-stars. If you have your 3-stars and can afford to level to 7 with 10g+, do so.
- Level to 7 if you haven’t already.
- Level to 8 as soon as possible. This may not happen until 5-5 or in some games, stage 6.
- Level to 9 whenever possible. This is rare, but can happen in the games you have a chance of winning.
I tried a couple times now kai sa builds like this. even had fish bone. sorry but this build is trash. I never got into top 5 with them. Stick to other builds unless you have perfect conditions…..
Does the new Blue buff work well with her (+10% AD/AP from all sources) or is shojins/rageblade always better?
Shojin/Rageblade is almost definitely better, but I don’t think BB is terrible.
is over 9k no longer her BiS power up?
Who do you put the strategist emblem on? I got strategist from prismatic early on so i just put it on kai’sa but it wasn’t that good even though I had janna and ryze early from tacticians cape
hey how to cap with two much value do you drop the shitters and switch to 4 mentor after hitting your units
Change spear to blue.
would duelist kaisa with guisuo + kraken work well?
Teacher’s council is INSANE, I had Jinx 3 and damn near lost to a Kaisa super highroll (dude had like 120 AD on Kaisa and stacking over 9000 since start of game), darius 3 was also doing work
Should honestly be B after akali nerfs, there is no good second carry and kaisa alone cant win fights late game
will mundo+voli be better than kennen+akali if yasuo3?
Could you please suggest which champion would be best to add to the team at level 9?
Played this morning, Akali was dead in the first 5 seconds of combat pretty consistently. Took 4th, and itemized Darius over Akali.
Can someone please explain me why we play double shred as BiS? Isn‘t LW on Kaisa enough or drop LW and only play Evenshroud on Kobuko?
The Akali items need to be updated to reflect her new bis with the shojin, AA, guinsoo.
Tried this comp a bit. And Darius works well as an alternative carry (especially at 3 star)
Akali bis is different in different comps. This is a more frontloaded damage build, because this comp is not as much of a stall comp. Archangel or JG might be better than Rabadon’s, but Nashor and EON are fine in this version. If you don’t believe me, just check the stats with 4 Mentor Kai’Sa and take a look at Akali builds. You’ll see that the scaling build (Rageblade + Arch + Shojin or EoN) is not nearly as good as it is in the other comp.
Is the Kaisa Rammus board any good? I saw it played on streams
you do not need to reroll for this to pick up. 4 mentor is doing too much damage as a 1 star.
i had 6 crystal gambit and all my units were 2 starred and still died with the set up
Who gets strategist emblem?
is bullet hell not good on kaisa?
There are 3 recommended options provided — Bullet Hell is included. You can see it where it shows all of Kai’Sa’s builds.
yeah im tweaking i thought it said critical threat before
The Juggernaut one shows Critical Threat over Precision, so that’s probably why (both have Bullet Hell though). Critical Threat is fine on Kai’Sa too, although obviously only if you don’t have IE. If you have IE, you’re better off with one of the other options. Can also go Sky Piercer if you don’t have Sunder. So there are some conditional options too.
