Tips & Tricks
- Can try out some of the boards that drop out of Noxus units for higher quality 5 costs by using the dropdown above the board
- The Noxus trait web is very flexible. There are many linking units you can play. For example, LeBlanc and Sion pair with Kobuko. Darius and Swain pair with Neeko / Sylas. And of course, there are many 5-costs that share traits such as Draven and Kindred, Briar and Aatrox, Mel and Azir, etc.
- Understanding the Noxus trait web can help you figure out how to drop out of Noxus units and play higher quality units instead as you upgrade your board in the late game. In some games, you won’t have enough gold. But in others, you can even drop all the way down to 3 Noxus
- Mel ideally wants 2 mana items as she has a very high mana cost, but does a lot of damage once she finally casts

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 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.
Darkin staff does decent damage, however, does it not impact her ability to print items? I managed to print 2 ornn items and when I clicked on Mel my progress was still like 150/235, wouldnt getting more exp and getting her 2 star being more prio?
this build is shit, everytime you met a zaun, you will get fucked
Itemize mel 1 or lb 2?
Not sure how this really affects tiers but if you have Bringer of Ruin (S), Jeweled Lotus 2 pushes this over the top
still loses to Aurelion Sol 2* though… even with 100 stacks, Atakhan gets stunlocked once your tanks die 🙁
I feel like Atakhan needs CC immune to be viable in stage 5+, this would be a neat buff to 7 noxus since you are forced to run low cost units to hit it
Which Darkin item should you take? You have it listed as a augment that is good. Which one? Scythe?
Yes, Scythe on Ambessa is good
Got Noxus, Brawler and Piltover emblem from encounter, luckily I used this guide and put Seraphine instead of Azir and it got me top 4
Bringer of ruin is actually disgustingly op
Mel middle positioning?
Updated, thanks.
The Atakhan augment is really good from winstreak spots (Briar 2 with a good item slam), but probably want to stay 7 Noxus late game.
Does Infinity Force (Protection augment) go on Ambessa? Or is it someone else
Is it better to drop Draven for Darius?
