Tips & Tricks
- Comp is much better with a N.O.V.A. emblem because it allows you to play 5 N.O.V.A. and 4 Bastion on Level 8 and drop Akali. Dropping Akali is especially beneficial since her N.O.V.A. bonus does nothing for Corki and Caitlyn.
- As a result, avoid playing without a N.O.V.A. Emblem. Theoretically you can still play the line without one and drop the Shen / Ornn on 8 and then add 4 Bastion on 9, but it is significantly weaker.

Economy Strategy
1-Cost Reroll
- Do not spend gold on leveling this stage. If you have 2-stars and a good item, you can consider playing to win some rounds. Otherwise lose streak is common for stage 2.
- Roll to 33 gold, buying any unit that will be part of the level 4 or 5 board. You can also buy units that will be part of the level 6+ board, but you can sell those if your bench fills and you need to buy other units. Rolling to 33 gold is advisable because it allows you to save back up to 50g by 3-5.
- Do not level if you haven't hit your 3-star 1-costs yet. If you have your 3-stars, you generally should still stay level 5 if you can win or if leveling to 6 would put you below 20g. Try to get above 40g this round.
- Ideally above 50g, level 5 at this point or level 6 with 3-stars.
- If you haven't hit your 3-stars yet, roll to ~52g each turn. You don't want to roll to perfect 50g as any units you buy in shop will put you below 50g. If you have 8+ copies of an itemized 1-cost, you can roll to 40g or 30g every round instead. Level to 6 once you hit your 3-stars.
- If you haven't hit your 3-stars yet, you must roll until you hit them. You should level to 6 after hitting. In some rare games, you will miss or spend so much gold you can never catch up. These games will usually result in bottom 4 placements.
- Level to 7 if you can stay above ~20g. Otherwise stay level 6.
- Level to 7.
- Level to 8 if you are in bottom half of lobby HP and are losing rounds. If you are higher HP and feel stable, you can wait until next turn.
- Level to 8 if you haven't already. Roll for any remaining units necessary for the comp. If stable, you can try to go 9. Most games you will end on level 8.
- Level to 9 whenever possible. This is rare, but can happen in the games you have a chance of winning.

Why Aatrox Strike over cait? Would be nice to see reasoning in tips and tricks and when to consider cait or just don’t consider it ever?
The whole comp is based around Aatrox cleaving the whole board with strike, which scales with armor and ad hence the build
Can you explain “NO SCOUT NO PIVOT” as >A condition?
What are you supposed to do on lvl 5-6 after hitting Mao?
just played with treasure hunt, and i think its really god if you win the 5050 on the spatula, having aatrox and cait 2 on 2-1 was really good!
