Tips & Tricks
  • Ixtal provides you quests throughout the game that reward you Sunshards. Eventually, you can cash them out for a reward and if you get enough of them, you can unlock Brock which is a powerful 7-cost
  • Brock does not require you to get all the Sunshards in a singular cash out. You can unlock him even if you cash out multiple times, as long as you get enough Sunshards throughout the game. Use your cashouts to survive if you have to!
  • If you have many copies of Neeko early or you get an augment that gives you Neeko like Worth the Wait or Caretaker’s, you can consider playing for the Nidalee version. Otherwise typically go for the Invoker version
  • Generally only play from spots where you have Ixtal before 2-5

Economy Strategy
  1. Level to 4 if you have upgrades and a good item to place on one of those upgrades.
  2. Level to 5, unless on 3 loss streak.
  3. Level to 6 if on 4+ win streak (scout to see if necessary in high elo) or can stay above 40g.
  4. 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.
  5. Level to 7 if you can stay above 30g, otherwise stay level 6.
  6. Level to 7.
  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.
  8. 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.
  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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.

    Caretaker is gone as for this patch

    1. Author avatarGM Blue

      EDIT: Caretaker’s Ally is definitely still in the game.

      I believe that’s only Caretaker’s Favor, not Caretaker’s Ally. Which I did not realize until your comment, so thank you — I removed Caretaker’s Favor from another comp. But are you sure Caretaker’s Ally is gone? Don’t see anything for that yet.
