Personal tempo, efficient farming, punish windows, item spikes, burst, and turning one kill into a won fight.
Open Solo/Duo guide →ORGANIZED TEAM / ESPORTS JUNGLEFor coordinated 5v5 play
Draft role, lane priority, communication, controlled vision, objective setup, and a first reset created with your teammates.
Open team-play guide →Same champion. Different decisions.
In Solo/Duo, you often have to create your own tempo and punish a mistake before the window disappears. In a team, your route should support the lanes and objective your composition wants to play around. Ranked build frequency does not decide a coordinated draft.
Hail of Blades is a real option
Fast opening attacks can create a burst and first-reset window against reachable targets. The Solo/Duo guide explains the full page and damage branches without claiming it wins every draft.
Conqueror still has a job
Repeated attacks in extended skirmishes reward sustained combat. Durable opponents and reliable allied initiation can make this a natural fit in either environment.
Know what the reset actually gives you.
PSovereign’s Domination
Help create a takedown, possess the soul, heal, and use the body’s basic tools. Heartbreaker gives you an exit after its initial possession lockout.
QBlade of the Ruined King
Abilities mark targets. Follow a damaging ability with an attack to consume the mark for the second strike and sustain.
WSpectral Maw
Charge a dash and stun. The projectile stops on the first enemy hit. Charging from actual fog is different from assuming E keeps you hidden.
EHarrowed Path
Mist around terrain gives camouflage, movement speed, and attack speed. The mist itself is visible information; attacks and ability casts reveal you.
RHeartbreaker
Reposition, finish a target, or exit a possession. Its primary target is the lowest-percentage-health champion in the landing area. You cannot cast it while rooted.
Skill plan: max Q → E → W; take R at 6, 11, and 16. Q → W → E gives level-three access to mist. Q → W → Q → E prioritizes clearing when an early lane play is unlikely.

Raw win rate, game-average win rate and normalized matchup deltas are different measures. Rank filters and selection bias matter; do not turn a small sample into a guaranteed counter.

No permanent win-rate claims. Build priorities reflect ZeusRa’s approach, checked against the current kit.
