The Rise of Xayah
In the newly released patch 13.19, Xayah and the Conqueror system have undergone some notable changes. Xayah has had her maximum energy reduced by 20, allowing her to cast abilities more frequently. Additionally, the Conqueror system in Teamfight Tactics has seen a slight increase in critical damage at the 4-unit mark.
Furthermore, several 4-cost carries like Fiora and Silco have been significantly nerfed in this patch. This has allowed Xayah to rise as a highly credible carry in the new version, with strong and stable damage output.
Building the Xayah – Conqueror Team
At the beginning of the match, players should start with the familiar Ionia setup consisting of Jhin, Irelia, and Sett. Warwick or Ashe will be essential additions at level 4 to boost the overall damage output of the team. Additionally, Samira is a good supplementary option if players cannot find the aforementioned units.
Moving into the mid-game, players can aim for the 4 Challenger threshold with Samira as the main carry to effectively maintain health. Moreover, Samira is an excellent holder of items for Xayah, so centering around this unit is advisable. Units like Darius and Karma should also be acquired early to prepare for completing the team in the late game.
After reaching level 8, players should use their gold to look for key units like Xayah, Nilah, and Shen to complete the composition. If lucky enough to obtain Ahri, players should replace Irelia with her. This is a valuable damage addition that this team should have.
Players should choose Legends that provide many items like Ornn, Bard, and Twisted Fate when using this composition. This is because alongside Xayah, Nilah is also a carry worth investing in to ensure damage output. Regarding items, Xayah will need Death’s Blade, Blue Bow, and Recurve Bow to deal damage most effectively.
Conclusion
With Riot enhancing both directly and indirectly, the Xayah – Conqueror team is rising extremely powerfully in the new patch. Players should make the most of this composition to climb ranks as effectively as possible.
