Izanami Build

Starter

Notes This will give a good lifesteal base to build upon.

Leather Cowl

Boots

Healing Potion

Mana Potion

Purification Beads

End Game Build

Notes This end build should be absolitely devestating. Giving you enough protection to take some hits while replensih health with lifesteal utalizing Izanamis passive ability and auto attack.

Hunter's Cowl

Qin's Sais

Shifter's Shield

Asi

Rage

Fail-Not

Elixir of Speed

Relics

Notes Beads are always a must for hunters. The Amulet will help with ultimates and wandering mids. Blink amd Sundering Spear are for a more aggro approach.

Purification Beads

Aegis Amulet

Blink Rune

Sundering Spear

Starting Potions

Notes My personal preference with my spacre change.

Mana Potion

Healing Potion

Base Build

Notes I know Toxic Blade can be considered a situational item. However it is a well rounded item that wont break the bank as a first item purchase. Additionally it will be the first item to be replaced later in the match. The main reasom is that it gives Izanami Physical Penetration early to utilize her passive. Actual Physical Penetration can be hard to come by.

Shifters shield can be replaced by or used in tandem with Bulwark of Hope if Magical protection is desired. Additionally Berserkers shield can replace it as well if a more aggro style is desired.

Ninja Tabi

Toxic Blade

Shifter's Shield

Asi

Offensive Additions

Rage

Fail-Not

Serrated Edge

Bloodforge

Berserker's Shield

Qin's Sais

Defensive Additions

Bulwark of Hope

Spirit Robe

Izanami's Skill Order Notes Spectral Projextion is important to get first to complement her auto attack and help farm early.

Make sure not to use sickle storm when farming. It prevents her sickles from traveling through enemies.

Fade Away is a versatile ability for retreats and ambushes. However do not put yourself in a hard spot using it as an ambush.

Dark Portal has good range and works well as a finisher on fleeinf enemies. Additionally it works well against mages mid battle to give the edge needed to win 1v1s.

Izanami descends into the underworld, becoming Stealthed, and leaps away from her current position.

Taking damage, or firing a damaging Ability or Basic Attack breaks her Stealth.

Dark Portal

4 Y

Izanami summons a dark portal which Damages and Silences all Enemies in range.

Ability Type: Circle, Silence, Damage
Damage: 240 / 340 / 440 / 540 / 640 (+100% of your Physical Power)
Duration: 1.5 / 1.75 / 2 / 2.25 / 2.5s
Range/Radius: 60/15
Cost: 100
Cooldown: 80s

The strat with this build is to utilize Izanamis passive ability with life gain and health triggered passive abilities.

After completing the initial build and purchasing your six items go back and sell toxic blade for a more advanced attack speed item like Qins Sais.

Similiarly once you purchase the speed potion replace your Ninja Tabi with a well rounded item like Fail Not.

If magic preotections is of concern Bulwark of Hope can replace or work in tandem with Shifters Shield. Additionally Berserker shield can replace Shifters Shield if a more aggressive approach is desired.

The meta has changed quite a bit, so this may not be the most optimal build, but I would go with something like: , , , , , , wind demon. Toss in a if you need anti-heal.

If you're going with , then drop all of the crit items and instead go with something like: , , , , , , . Toss in if you need anti-heal. Upgrade the cowl to in both cases.

Gulf, that's too much crit and not enough pen still. With Cowl, 3 crit items max, or you could get away with 2 if you have . With upgraded from , you can easily just get 2 crit items freeing you up for lifesteal and 1 or 2 major pen items.

On the Qin's side, upgraded to can be nice, and if you build enough AS, you can fit in. Maybe something like , , , , , , upgrade to , replace Tabi with . Or instead of Exe->Silver, grab and then , and replace Tabi with . I don't even know that I would bother with , your damage is going to completely outwork any healing.

Another option would be to fit in...you could do that after Dom or before Qin's.

Izy cannot build .

You shouldn't really build around Iza passive.

Please elaborate I put this up for feedback.

(143) |

Her passive is only really proccing at a higher amount when you're low on health. And when that happens in a teamfight you're likely dead anyway. Plus the build only has 10% pen which isn't enough, and when your 1 isn't up you don't really have much attack speed to utilise qin's well either.

You need More % pen in your build, without % pen you will do no damage to tanks, you shouldn't rely on taking damage in order to start dealing damage.
