Combo of Harvesting Scythe and Execution
Harvesting Scythe has recently proven to be superior to Doran’s Blade as players have discovered its “cheating” power through its passive that grants extra gold whenever minions are farmed. Don’t underestimate 1 gold per minion; it significantly shortens the time it takes to complete crucial items like B.F. Sword on your first return and later Infinity Edge, the item most AD Carries aim for.
Moreover, this item does not add health stats, so when combined with the Precision rune Execution, your AD Carry will deal an enormous amount of damage early on, without needing to have all the items. Basically, AD Carries right now are not too strong in the early game regardless of how well they play, so investing in the later phases with Harvesting Scythe and Execution will be more effective.
The Haste Spell is Extremely Strong Right Now
After being continuously buffed recently, the summoner spell Haste has become incredibly powerful. It even removes the weakness of champions like Tryndamere, Jax, or Darius, turning them into unstoppable war gods. The only weakness these champions had was their predictable engagement into fights, which can be entirely eliminated with Haste due to their increased movement speed.
If you use the Haste spell in the top lane, you will have to sacrifice Teleport, so to maximize this playstyle, you need to win your lane early and apply pressure from the start. If not, you must choose the right timing to move to the fights; in summary, the costs for speed power are quite high, so players need to consider carefully before using it.
The Perfect Duo: Smite and Conqueror
Although it’s just a small adjustment, allowing Smite to stack Conqueror has made the build with Blade of the Ruined King much more popular. Remember, champions using Smite usually have strong damage, and even the strongest jungle champions often use the Conqueror rune, so your power will be immense after your first return home with the Blade of the Ruined King.
Keep in mind that in solo queue, the snowball effect can happen extremely quickly, and just one solo kill from stacking Conqueror faster than your opponent can give you control of the game. Basically, this playstyle requires players to continuously attack and invade the jungle, and champions like Lee Sin, Olaf, and Jarvan IV are the most suitable for this strategy.
