How it works

General

  1. This build is all about poke.
  2. You mark enemies with Imperial Mandate, and your team procs the marks for bonus damage.
  3. Mix Imperial Mandate with AD and AP items like The Collector, Muramana and Liandry's Torment so you do solid damage yourself.
  4. Super annoying for enemies since you're constantly poking from distance, applying debuffs and enemies can't really fight back.

How to play

General

  1. This Imperial Mandate Kha'Zix build can be one of the most annoying builds in ARAM. Coordinate with your team to maximize effectiveness.
  2. Imperial Mandate requires your allies to proc the marks you apply. Don't spam abilities mindlessly - time your poke to sync with your team's engage windows or when they're about to follow up with damage.

Item Build Priority

  1. Rush Imperial Mandate first if your team can reliably proc marks. If not, start with Liandry's Torment for consistent damage. Build the other item second, then complete your core with Muramana or The Collector.

Positioning

  1. Stay at maximum range and poke from a safe distance. Use your abilities to mark multiple enemies. Try coordinating with your team (for example when they are about to poke).

Utility Options

  1. Horizon Focus provides excellent vision control by revealing enemies you hit from range. This helps your team..

Counter Items

  1. Rush Serpent's Fang or Morellonomicon early if the enemy has heavy shields or healing. Both work exceptionally well with Liandry's Torment's damage over time effect.

Playstyle

  1. Focus on consistent poke. Proc Imperial Mandate on cooldown. Prioritize survival and staying safe over risky plays - your value comes from sustained damage output.

Champion

  1. Build very similar to Imperial Mandate Ashe build. Very annoying to play against - you poke, slow and burn enemies down with W.
  2. Last Stand is an important talent that does tons of damage. It has a lot of hidden power. You can manipulate your HP to be most of the time within damage buff. It is risky, however with this build, you have an option to almost never ever go in. Also, you can heal up with your W.
  3. Jump with E to the enemies, use W and run away.
  4. Use R (plus optionally Ghost), get closer to the enemies, use W and jump with E away.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. Void Assault (R) is a great tool. Change the direction just before you use it, so enemies may get confused where are you going. Use this for sneaking, disrupting fights, poking and going for the kills.

Riot

  1. Enemies are considered isolated if they have no allies within a short distance. The damage of Taste Their Fear is massively increased against these targets.
  2. Unseen Threat activates when Kha'Zix cannot be seen by the enemy team. Reactivate by using brush or Void Assault. Don't forget to apply Unseen Threat by autoattacking enemy champions.
  3. Kha'Zix has a great deal of freedom to choose where and when to fight. Pick your battles carefully to succeed.
