Tips & Tricks

While some have played this line with Yorick or Rakan instead of Ornn, Ornn seems much better and has a better level 4 and 5 board.
This is more of a 1-cost reroll line than 1 and 2 cost reroll. The goal is to 3 star all 5 1-costs to unlock the Solar trait breakpoint.
When rolling in Stage 3, try to only buy Starfall, Starting Town, an econ wisp, or item wisp (permanent items, not temporary). Field of Mice was disabled in 18.2.
Can also stop rolling for wisp on an item wisp such as the item shop or the one that gives a component after a certain number of champions die. This comp can itemize up to 5 units easily which means items are highly valuable and it isn't that expensive to hit the final board compared to other comps.
Akali can be played as AD or AP. Both are fine. AD is slightly easier to play around since you'll want to build Sunder for Camille anyway, but if you have AP items it's fine to play around AP Akali. You can see both builds by clicking "AD" or "AP" under Akali in the Builds section.
Part of what makes this line situationally better than the Kayle reroll line is the fact it can win early rounds much easier and is less expensive to stabilize on since it doesn't require any 2-cost 3 stars.

Economy Strategy

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.

Tip changed from This implies that if you can play around Ornn early and go for an artifact, you should.

Tip changed from This line is not solved yet. Generally the goal is to 3-star 5 different 1-costs. 4 of those 1-costs are consistent: Akali + Camille + Varus + Leona. The 5th one is not solved. Ornn has the best stats and works the best on Level 5, but Yorick and Rakan have higher sample size. → While some have played this line with Yorick or Rakan instead of Ornn, Ornn seems much better and has a better level 4 and 5 board.

This comp is tier A at best, even tho I got Ornn early I got 3 star, I choosed econ + obj + obj and I couldnt do nothing against better tables. Also, getting 3 star everything is so difficult since you dont have many space. Pls, this comp is awful.

  Agree, but I don’t think it’s +3 and I don’t think NSNP is +1. Part of why the website has 7 tiers is to avoid this type of scenario, but I don’t know a better way to do it. +2 tiers is needed for an augment to be considered “directional” and I think NSNP is directional, so that’s another reason I don’t want to move it down to +1.
  
  Perhaps it would be more accurate to move the comp down to C-tier and then move Early Learnings back up to +3. But meh – I think the line is playable even without crazy conditions, especially in lower elo, so I don’t know. It’s probably just going to have to be one of those times where the website fails to perfectly communicate the strength of these 2 augments.

Ornn seems to be contested pretty often, so i found it a lot better to just go yorick or rakan what do you guys think about this? Since I feel like it’s a lot more important to 3 star all the one costs.

you have to hit 5 3*s or else your solar trait is going to be pretty weak, make sure to position your akali on the correct side, if your akali and ornn arent 3* pretty quick its bot4
