Tips & Tricks
  • This comp is more well known now and no longer a mystery. Seems to perform well and should be the default Double Trouble option
  • The opener is not fixed since you generally will not have the units required to make the board work early. Just play double of the strongest AP carry you can find until you can ideally level to 7 on either 3-5 (if you are low HP) or 4-1 (if you are high HP) to roll for the correct board.
  • Realistically will not hit Loris 3 in most of your games, so focus on Nautilus 3 and Malzahar 3. On level 8, you can play a second Loris 2 if you are able to find 6 copies OR you can play another Warden such as Braum or Ornn or you could play any flex unit such as Taric, Skarner, Fiddle, Senna, etc.
  • Leeching Nucleus > Spitter Spines > Adrenaline Modules for the 2 Void Module on Malzahar

Economy Strategy
  1. Level to 4 if strong.
  2. Level to 5, unless on 3 loss streak.
  3. Level to 6, unless it places you below 30g.
  4. Stay level 6, unless you can stay above 50g on 7 or you are below 40 HP and can stay above 30g on 7.
  5. Level to 7, roll until board mostly upgraded. Never go below 10g even if missing tank or carry.
  6. Build up to 50g, slow roll to 50g until 5-1.
  7. If below ~25 HP, sometimes you must roll until you hit here. Not ideal.
  8. Roll until you hit 3-star carry and tank. Can go to 0g. Only greed gold if you are above ~60 HP.
  9. If you hit, you can level to 8. Otherwise stay 7. Holds true for every round for the rest of the game.

    People on socials have been suggesting crash test dummies if it’s offered and Azir at 9 if you can make it there

    Let’s gooooo I got my first win on this!! Only plat 2 90LP and new players, but it’s so much fun. Loris 3-star was contested so I went 9 with 2 Ornns each holding a TG

    Tried twice in the last couple of days when hitting double trouble, won both. Performs incredibly well once you hit 3* Malz.

    If you try playing this without the Leeching Nucleus void mutation, you should build gunblade on your 3-star Malzahar. It looks better to itemize a Seraphine 2-star instead of the 2nd Malzahar. If you’re wondering what to pick for a combat augment (ideally on 4-2), choose generically good ones like Exiles, Makeshift Armor, Spirit Link, Soul Awakening, Hold the Line, or Giant and Mighty. Also might be worth considering taking 3 Threes

    Close enough, welcome back set 15 double trouble malzahar

    Just played it, 15 rounds winstreak. lost to riggs with wukong 3 in the end, but damn this shit was busted + no one will contest you on malz and nautilus after bilge nerf. Everyone trying to play asol atm, so dont bother with targon DT and just play this

    1. Anonymous 16.3 | January 22, 2026Reply

      what rank?

      1. Mio 16.3 | January 23, 2026Reply

        This was in D1, all the voidlings from 2 itemized Malz + void mutiation that heals on main Malz and i gave the second Malz gunblade your frontline never dies. I was honestly really surprised how this shit steamrolled the lobby after 3-5
