Corki has returned as an assassin, thanks to a new lethality build. Pro player Scout has been dominating with this Corki League of Legends Build, having a nearly 90% win rate. Let’s take a closer look at how to master this build.
Reworked Corki Runes
Primary Path: Domination
- Hail of Blades: Provides a burst of attack speed for the first three attacks, making Corki’s early trades significantly stronger.
- Sudden Impact: Gives extra damage after dashing, working well with Corki’s W ability, Valkyrie, to deal more damage.
- Eyeball Collection: Increases your attack damage as you gain takedowns, enhancing your snowball potential throughout the game.
- Treasure Hunter: Gives you more gold when you kill enemies, helping you get stronger items quicker.
Secondary Path: Precision
- Legend: Alacrity: Provides permanent attack speed with each stack gained from kills and assists, enhancing Corki’s sustained damage output.
- Cut Down: Deals more damage to champions with higher maximum health than you, which is particularly effective against tanky opponents.
- Attack Speed
- Adaptive Force
- Health
Reworked Corki Abilities Max Order
In this build, prioritizing Corki’s abilities involves maxing Gatling Gun (E) first for its consistent damage output, armor reduction, and lane dominance. Phosphorus Bomb (Q) is maxed second to enhance burst potential, poke damage, and wave clear, while Valkyrie (W) is maxed last for increased mobility.
Reworked Corki Build
Items
- Serrated Dirk
- Opportunity
- The Collector
- Infinity Edge
- Lord Dominik’s Regards
- Additional lethality and crit items.
This Korean Corki build guide focuses on maximizing burst potential and assassination capabilities through lethality and critical strike chance. Starting with Serrated Dirk for early lethality against squishy targets, Corki swiftly transitions to The Collector, amplifying damage and offering extra gold post-takedowns for accelerated itemization. Infinity Edge follows, bolstering critical strikes and burst damage. Lord Dominik’s Regards help with dealing against tankier enemies, synergizing with Corki’s armor penetration.
Early Game Strategy
- Level 1: Take E and trade with E-auto-auto-auto using Hail of Blades. This will chunk out most champions, allowing you to deny experience or secure a kill early on.
- Level 2: Dash forward with W and repeat with Sudden Impact, which deals 24 true damage at this level.
- Level 3-4: Against harass-focused mages, start with E and then chase with W. This combination can secure kills early on.
Mid Game Power Spikes
- By level 6, you’ll have Serrated Dirk, and the bonus AD makes E deal around 300 damage. Use Sudden Impact effectively by positioning your W.
- The Opportunity item is a significant power spike. However, be cautious of juggernauts like Irelia who can run you down.
Playing as an Assassin
- Once you have The Collector, you become a full-fledged assassin. If you recall with enough gold, you can rush The Collector first.
- In the mid-game, actively look for picks. Even high-level players often neglect to check bushes.
- Use W forward cautiously in teamfights; it’s usually better to bait enemies in instead.
Tips and Warnings
- This build is strong in the early to mid-game. However, it falls off if the game goes full late.
- Be cautious against bruisers at level 6, as you might get stat-checked.
- Despite the removal of the Package, Corki remains a strong pick with increased AD scaling and lethality.
