Tips & Tricks
- Not known right now if Archangel or Rabadon's is better. Typically Rabadon's has been better for Damage over Time (DoT) champions as DoT damage usually is snapshotted on cast. But stats currently imply Archangel is better, which either means fights are long enough to justify it OR DoT damage updates
- The idea behind the Fiddle build is to have him cast as much as possible to help Cassiopeia take enemies down and heal himself. Adaptive Helm increases his mana gain from Flora Fatalis and he gets plenty of tankiness from 6 Defender and Gunblade. Titan's gives him CC immunity.
- You do not have to play the Adaptive Fiddle build. A typical build on him works too.
- Since this is primarily a 2 unit comp with Cassiopeia and Fiddle, combat augments that empower them are high priority.
- Blue Buff and Shojin are both good on Cassiopeia, but usually Blue Buff is hard to build if going for the Adaptive build.
- While technically this comp can be played from Coven, it struggles to use items from Coven compared to standard fast 8 comps. Keep that in mind if playing around Coven opener.

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