Introduction

Hey guys i wanted to do a build on Loki to show how effective his attack speed can be in tight situations. Loki is a physical assassin who job is to eliminate enemies quick and easy. Loki works the best on single target enemies to maximize damage.

PROS

    Good Single Target
    Takes down Targets Fast
    Ability is also a slow
    Teleporting Ult.
    Harass Enemies
    Passive allows for more damage from behind

CONS
    Super Squashy
    Focused Alot
    Ult. sometimes can miss target
    Being Stunned is your worst nightmare
    Rarely escapes group fights

Skills

Behind You!

Loki's Passive Allows Loki to do 20% more damage while behind any enemy. It is always recommend to strike the enemy from behind for max damage output and faster kills.
Vanish

Vanish Allows Loki to go invisible while granting him additional movement speed. While cloaked Loki's next basic attack causes the target to bleed but reveals Loki in the process.
Decoy

Decoy puts a fake version of Loki on the battlefield that taunts enemy minions and towers for a short period of time, the fake Loki eventually explodes doing damage to all enemies within the circle.
Aimed Strike

Aimed Strike grants Loki additional attack power as well as slows enemies hit by your basic attack while ability is up.
Assassinate

Loki's ultimate Assassinate allows Loki to teleport to any ground target's location within a short distance backstabbing the target while doing damage and stunning them.

Loki Montage

here is a quick video i put together using a similar build
(i did this mostly just for fun enjoy)

Tips

The best time for Loki to attack is against other squashy targets such as Zeus, Hei Bo, etc.

Make sure targets are not close to any enemies that have stuns because once stunned, its hard to get away from any damage that follows.

Try to continuous attack targets from the rear so that they will take additional damage allowing for a faster kill

A good sequence to do it to activate Vanish then before you attack your target activate Aimed strike while cloaked (will not break cloak) to allow for additional damage while applying the bleed effect.

Pop Loki's aimed strike in sequence with his Ult. to allow for more to attack your enemy instead of waiting for the animation to finish.

remove qins blades completely and replace it with jotuns wrath as core, and then you have a more solid build

I found the fatalis build pretty good, but the other build posted on here is better imo because of the CDR. Other than that I like this guide. Good Work.
