This article will introduce the top five strongest deck strategies to help you stand out in the battle.

1. Ionia/Piltover - Zed and Ekko's Combo Aggro Deck

Deck Introduction

This deck uses the high burst potential of Zed and Ekko, combined with a fast-paced aggro strategy, to suppress the opponent in a short period of time. Zed's clone skill and Ekko's time control ability can quickly create a deadly threat and catch the opponent off guard. Combined with Ekko's Backtracking Blade and Zed's Shadow Clone, a combo play of continuous attacks is formed, making it difficult for the enemy to defend effectively.

Core Cards

Zed: Zed's Shadow Clone can provide you with additional attack power every round, making him a powerful offensive threat in the early stage.

Ekko: Ekko's time manipulation and fate card give him extremely high mobility, which can turn the tables on his opponent in the mid-to-late game.

Rune Mapping: This spell can provide Zed with fast attacks and protection, allowing him to effectively attack the opponent and survive.

Tactical ideas

Summon Zed as early as possible and attack with Rune Mapping, while using Ekko's time manipulation to quickly clear the opponent's units. Through fast attacks and continuous attacks, try to reduce the opponent's health as much as possible in the early round, and finally use Ekko's time manipulation to complete the end.

2. Demacia/Freljord - Lux and Braum's defensive counterattack deck

Deck introduction

This deck focuses on defensive counterattacks, using Braum's high survivability and Lux's ultimate beam to gradually weaken the opponent while defending, and finally complete the counterattack through beams or other high-burst skills. Braum can act as a solid meat shield to absorb damage, while Lux accumulates energy in the back and waits for an opportunity to move.

Core cards

Lux: Provides you with a photon barrier by casting spells, giving it a powerful field clearing ability.

Braum: Braum is a wall that is difficult to penetrate and can effectively absorb the enemy's offensive pressure.

Judgment: Clear enemy units on a large scale to give you a decisive advantage.

Tactical ideas

Focus on defense at first, block the opponent's attack through Braum, and gradually gain advantage with Demacia's powerful spells. When the energy accumulates to a certain level, Lux's ultimate skill will become an unbearable blow to the enemy. Stick to defense and gradually expand the advantage, and finally win through beam counterattack or large-scale clearing.

3. Noxus/Bilgewater-Draven and Tristana's Explosive Deck

Deck Introduction

This deck focuses on fast attack and high damage. Through Draven's spinning axe and Tristana's artillery skills, a large amount of damage is output in a short time. Tristana's explosive damage combined with Draven's fast attack can easily disintegrate the opponent's defense. This deck is suitable for players who like high-pressure battle rhythm.

Core cards

Draven: Provides spinning axe and fast attack capabilities, which are your main output to suppress opponents in the early stage.

Tristana: Tristana's blasting skill can directly hit the enemy's key units, and even cause direct damage to the enemy's heroes.

Severe Strike: Noxus's efficient spell allows you to quickly deal with the opponent's core units.

Tactical Idea

Summon Draven and Tristana as early as possible, and suppress the opponent with a high-intensity offensive strategy in the first few rounds. Use Draven's spinning axe and Tristana's blasting skill to continuously attack the opponent's heroes, and use Noxus's clearing spell to clear the enemy units and quickly end the battle.

4. Shadow Isles/Shurima - Elise and the Lord of the Desert's Sacrifice Control Deck

Deck Introduction

This deck is centered on sacrifice and resurrection. Through Elise's summoning and sacrificing strategy, combined with Shurima's Lord of the Desert's resurrection mechanism, you can recycle units and gradually suppress the opponent. Elise's spider summoning ability plus the Lord of the Desert's resurrection skill make it difficult for the enemy to completely eliminate your lineup.

Core Cards

Elise: Attack by summoning a large number of spider units while suppressing the opponent's field.

Lord of the Desert: The powerful resurrection ability allows you to quickly restore the situation after sacrificing units.

Ritual of Resurrection: A powerful spell from Shadow Isles that allows you to revive multiple important units and reverse the situation.

Tactical Idea

Use Elise's spider army to consume the enemy in the early stage, and prepare the resurrection strategy of the Lord of the Desert. When you have enough sacrificial units, use the ritual of resurrection and the resurrection mechanism to establish a situation advantage in the middle and late stages, and gradually disintegrate the opponent's defense line. Maintain a stable rhythm and use control and resurrection cycles to defeat the enemy.

5. Bandle City/Shurima - Teemo and Tsar's Fast Attack Trap Deck

Deck Introduction

Teemo's mushroom traps combined with Shurima's Tsar summoning ability form a set of fast attack traps that disgust the opponent. By continuously implanting poisonous mushroom traps in the opponent's deck and cooperating with the Tsar's powerful unit attacks, the opponent gradually loses combat effectiveness in unpredictable damage.

Core Cards

Teemo: Through Teemo, a large number of poisonous mushroom traps are buried in the opponent's deck to form a continuous threat.

Tsar Azir: Summon soldier units to attack and continuously output pressure on the enemy.

Mushroom Cloud: Add a large number of poisonous mushrooms to the opponent's deck, so that the opponent faces threats every time he draws a card.

Tactical thinking

Teemo is the core of this deck. Use Teemo to bury poisonous mushroom traps as early as possible. The Tsar's soldier summoning ability can make up for the offensive needs on the field. By continuously stacking poisonous mushroom traps, the opponent will suffer continuous damage during the card drawing process, gradually reduce the opponent's health, and finally kill through Teemo's trap.
