Tips & Tricks
- Katarina’s build is fairly optimized — it almost always wants Edge of Night paired with HoJ and Striker’s. Alternative options include Rabadon’s, double HoJ, and Gunblade
- Battle Academia Emblem is good because it allows you to play 7 Battle Academia with Ryze + Janna on 8 instead of 9
- Manazane can be played on Katarina before finding Yuumi — It is a solid item on her
- Split positioning is done to increase probability that Katarina gets to the backline. Keep Katarina paired with your tank on either side.
- Over 9000 is great if found early (2-1 or earlier)

)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.
never playing kat again got perfect items with dawncore and great augments but kat got bursted down 🙁
Please remove, auto bot 4
dawbreaker with hoj and striker’s flail is much better in the stats now for kat instead of eon
Just played this with Nine Lives and Jayce 3 as a Duo, seemed pretty good, Jayce hits backline and Kat would TP to backline, didnt even cashout the last 2 lives
thoughts on Over 9000 or Not Done Yet if get stage 1 or 2-1?
Over 9000 is quite good — added it. Last certain about Not Done Yet.
This is feeling like a C tier comp, even when I hit everything I still go 4-5th.
agree
delete this shit comp from S tier
I feel like most of the times it’s better to push levels with kata 3 and rakan 2
Why does tft academy place like that?
How are you supposed to build and position with Trickster on Kat? I found Kat would wind up inting a lot and bounce back towards my backline after she gets Trickster procced while on their carry.
just won with this lets go :3
Is Max Aracana worth running through the end of the game if you high roll and get kat 2-1?
Absolutely.
Just got 1st with Unflinching and radiant HoJ + Edge + Striker’s on Kat it felt really insane
yumi doesnt need mana i think? but nice comp tho
I believe that Yuumi needs mana at 2 Prodigy. But I would agree that she doesn’t at 4 or 5 Prodigy.
Just tried this with Dawncore and Akali duo, beats every comp in the game with ease
Kat is absolutely broken if you get an artifact or radiant shojin or HoJ for her + Blink power up
Gold Collector is not that bad in Kat, I tried with Hoj and EoN and it was good
What is path to getting prismatic Battle Academia? Is it better to rush 7 with an item augment so you can start stacking items? Or better to build a strong board and start stacking later? Or is it even viable/possible? I have yet to see anyone get remotely close to Prismatic on 7 Battle Academia, regardless of comp (closest I’ve seen was about 110/175). I know we don’t play towards prismatic like that, but Soul Fighter feels much more achievable (10 wins is not absurd especially if you hit early and pick on weak players) and even Star Guardian feels possible (I’ve seen it a handful of times on an early hit). Just can’t figure out how BA is possible.
need mana augments + shadow clone and early 7 BA
For level 6 reroll comps like this would it be possible to see the level 6 boards?
Kat feels absolutely awful without 7 Battle Academia.
I’ve changed it so 7 Battle Academia the default, but not because I think the 5 Battle Academia version on 8 is wrong, but because you need a lot of items and gold to make Kat 3 + Janna 3 + Rakan 3 work, while the 7 Battle Academia board is way less item and gold greedy. I think with Two Much Value, there is a high chance you should be playing the Janna board on 8. Both perform similarly in stats for people who died on 8 (there is no difference on 9), but the sample is much higher for 7 Battle Academia on 8 so keeping it as the Main variation for now.
