Basic Configuration and Synergy

This configuration activates an additional juggernaut (2) and sorcerer (2) by 8 soul fighters + Braum or Yone.
If you employ Braum, you get Bastion, and with Yone, you get Edgelord!

There are two types of play patterns!

• Pattern 1: Reach level 9 with economic augments → Route to find Gwen

• Pattern 2: Item and combat augmentations → Reroll at level 8 and set up the board with Samira and Set.
  If you can draw Gwen, go for Soul Fighter (8); if not, organize 2* Seto Samira and Shen around Soul Fighter (6). The remaining 1 slot can be flexibly filled with 5-cost units.

Equipment Guide

• Gwen: Mana recovery items (adaptive helm, Shozin, Blue Buff) + Morello are essential!
• Samira: Shozin OR Accuracy Unmatched is a must! The rest can be infinity edge, etc.
• Set: Tank operation with defensive or fighter items
• Braum: Support role. Attach extra items and soul fighter crests.

Placement

• Vanguard: Set and Braum lined up in front of the right
• Samira: placed in the corner of the fourth row (same side as the vanguard)
• Gwen: placed to hide in the second row

Temporary progression in the early stages

• Progressing around the three synergies of “Mighty Robots,” “Juggernauts,” and “Heavyweights.”
• Let Gangplanks and Callistas carry mana recovery and physical attack items, and Eight Rocks and Gangplanks carry defensive items.
• A strategy of consecutive losses with crystal gambits is also an option!

Tips for choosing augments

• If you choose an economic system, secure Gwen at level 9.
• If you choose to equip and combat system, level 8 will improve the quality of the board!

impression

Not only the royal route of finding Gwen from the 9th level with economic augments, but also the Soul Fighter (6) derived route centered on Set & Samira is explained, which is very stable in the endgame!

It is a “read it and use it” type guide filled with information on equipment, placement, game development, augment decisions, and all other aspects of the game.
If you don’t read it, you’re missing out!
