6	Champions	Runes / Summoner Spell	Matchup Difficulty / Notes
7	Ahri	Electrocute / TP	4/10 / Play safe early game until level 3 and make sure she doesn't proc her Elec with AA + W + AA combo.	Notes
8	Akali	Electrocute / Either	7/10 / Early laning is usually hard, don't be greedy and dont engage if it's on her side of the lane when she has W or E.
9	Akshan	Electrocute / Either	8/10 / Play safe until at least lvl3, take trades early when the wave is hitting your tower after about lvl9 you do outscale in 1v1s.	For Spells:	For Items:	FOR CAVEMAN:
10	Anivia	Electrocute / TP	6/10 / Early may suck, usually can't kill her because of egg, just dodge her Q with your E then it's fine.	⭐ While both are viable in S15, matchups, enemy and even your own comp could change which one is better in the given scnerio.	First item is almost always going to be Rocketbelt.	SEE MELEE OR BAD MATCHUP DO IGNITE AND PLAY AGGRESSIVE.
11	Annie	Electrocute / Either	5/10 / Go in after she uses her stun although after lvl6 just don't get poked in and with her ult try to one shot her.	TP is the safer option, works well If the matchup early is very bad or your playstyle is to play safer and farm.	Second item you have more options such as Lich, Cosmic, Riftmaker,	HIT E'S OR GG.
12	Asol	Electrocute / Either	2/10 / Early is easy, don't give him full Q passive on you, and try to freeze on your side of the tower and fight constantly.	TP also helps to split push later in the game more realistic as you can join a fight with by TPing.	Stormsurge, Zhonya, and Shadowflame.	MAX Q SINCE IT DOES MOST DAMAGE = BIG NUMBERS MEANS LP.
13	Aurora	Electrocute / Either	6/10 / Early is hard, wait until at least lvl3, gets better after first item if even.	Ignite is the aggressive option, works well If the matchup early is very volatile or you think having it helps the matchup.	❓ Lichbane is the most flexible overall, does what Shadowflame does but worse burst, but better split and 1v1 power.	DONT GET GANKED AND DIE OR DONT GET RAN OVER BY TRADING ON THEIR SIDE OF LANE.
14	Azir	Electrocute / Either	6/10 / Depends how good Azir is but go in after he uses Q and be careful to fight after lvl6 to not get shuffled to his tower.	Ignite now scales a lot better although mid-late game macro gets harder so you either need to hover over objectives/invades	⭐ Cosmic works better with Conquerer and games you're trying to be utility/tanky.	BE BETTER.
15	Cass	Electrocute / Either	9/10 / Bank everything on early game or jungle ganks, E in after she uses Q although with enough HP she outscales you in 1v1s.	to see If a fight is going to happen or commit to pushing as your 1v1 power is better with Ignite.	❌❓ Stormsurge works better with Electrocute and has the benefit of good	DONT BE WORSE.
16	Diana	Conquerer / Ignite	5/10 / Try to dodge her Q or E in after her Q, early may suck, gets better after lvl9 with W max and items in 1v1s.		components and lower cost so you can rush Zhonya faster.	GO ZHONYA SECOND OFTEN ESPECIALLY IF BEHIND.
17	Ekko	Either / Ignite	4/10 / Early might be bad until lvl2-3, dont give him passive + Elec proc and after lvl6 its simple.	For Ability Orders:	⭐ Shadowflame works better with Electrocute and mainly Q max for better burst, but W max is fine as well.	GO SHADOW/STORM SECOND OFTEN BECAUSE DAMAGE = DOPAMINE.
18	Fizz	Either / Ignite	3/10 / Play around your Bone Plating and dont take too short trades, wait his E to use your own E.	The most reliable and the go to playstyle has always been:	Zhonya works the best second If enemy has either very obvious burst or very AD heavy.	ROAM IF MATCHUP IS BORING FARM (VEIGAR LAME)
19	Galio	Conquerer / Either	8/10 / Don't E in, If you dodge his E with your own E then its winning trade usually otherwise could Q max to match tempo.	2Q -> W max -> E max is standard and you can go this setup every single game.	✅ Even then Zhyona second is still doable especailly If you're behind to make plays where you	LOOK AT MAP AND HELP OBJECTIVES OR JUNGLER.
20	Hwei	Electrocute / TP	7/10 / Q max and play safe early unless he gives free E angles, better to fight on your side of lane and could try to one shot after lvl9.	Q -> E max is BETTER against ranged (mainly mages) since the game plan for the most part will be	can engage for your team to create space with Zhonya after.	HIT Q'S OR NOOB?
21	Irelia	Conquerer / Either	6/10 / Dodge her E with your E and don't fight her for long if she has full stacks, you win short trades.	farming with Q and trying to one shot enemy with 1 combo later.	🔥 Riftmaker is usually the go to when doing Conqueror which is fine especially If enemy	NOT EVERY GAME IS WINNABLE UNLESS YOU ABUSE DUOQ.
22	Jayce	Conquerer / Either	8/10 / Early giga sucks, try to farm early and in mid game you should win 1v1s with Conq.	Q -> W -> E and W -> Q -> E both are also good although more situational.	is 3+ melee's or HP stackers so you get to actually get good value from it.	PRECISION SECONDARY IS OP JUST SPAM IT EVERY GAME.
23	Kass	Electrocute / Either	5/10 / Abuse him early but don't get ahead of yourself and int, could look for either Roam angles or freeze to look for trades constantly.	Q-> W-> E max when enemy isn't all squishies but you do not win your early lane so you want wave clear	❓ The difference between Riftmaker and Cosmic is that Cosmic works better from behind	DO ELECTROCUTE OFTEN IF LOW ELO AS ITS EASIER TO CARRY WITH.
24	Kat	Either / Either	5/10 / Depends if she's going AP or AD, AD wins early and late if ahead but sucks in TFs, either way take short trades.	and you'll still have W max by mid game making you a good fighter in side lanes / or it's easy to hit Q's on enemy laner.	and when you're Conqueror and can't go Riftmaker because enemy is a lot of squishies or ranged.	((METAFY))
25	LeBlanc	Electrocute / Either	7/10 / Early sucks, W her when she W's in, take her W or E ult and use it against her, if you get her to run away with W then it's usually a win.	W -> Q -> E max is a lot more situational, where you NEED to have W max in that matchup early to mid game	------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
26	Liss	Electrocute / Either	2/10 / Early depends, use your E2 and W before she W's you and her ult is really good so you win after lvl6.	but also wave clear as you might side line a lot instead of fighting.	SO, while that's a lot of viable options for secondary
27	Lux	Electrocute / Either	4/10 / Nothing happens much, either buffer or dodge her Q with E, could use her ult against her while in E2 animation so its faster.	------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------	If you're Conqueror then honestly literally all the options are viable.
28	Malz	Electrocute / TP	6/10 / Boring, usually a farm fest so Q max and match tempo.	⭐ While all that said, If you think Q max is going to have more value that game then W max	Zhonya/Rift/Cosmic will be S+ tier but others are also viable even with Conqueror
29	Mel	Electrocute / Either	4/10 / If she reflects your E2 then it's winning, if she reflects your burst then it's losing, usually easy after lvl3, dodge her Q and E2 before her E.	then you can start by Q max then go into W or E seeing which one you think will have more value.	where you think you just need more straight damage.
30	Naafiri	Conquerer / Either	7/10 / Hard to hit E2s on her because of dogs so wait for her to go on you first, dodge her Q2 at least and farm, has good ult.	❓ If I'm playing against someone that I think it's easy to hit Q's and/or I want to play safer because It's possible I may get ganked	If you're Electrocute then Shadowflame/Stormsurge/Zhonya are all S+ tier.
31	Ori	Electrocute / Either	5/10 / Depends on the player more, but see E2 angles and on your side of the tower trades should be winning.	constantly/early or even I can not use W as often (because you for whatever reason can not get close to them) THEN I would Q max.	The rest are not as doable with Electrocute since your whole playstyle is to do damage, not stack AH.
32	Qiyana	Either / Either	5/10 / Depends, may need to dodge her Qs with your E but dont get Elec procced with her 2 Qs and after lvl6 you might one shot her.	------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------	------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
33	Ryze	Either / Either	9/10 / Kind of same with Cass though early is even harder but try to fight early as you do not outscale.	For Example:	Third item will always be Zhonya's.
34	Smolder	Electrocute / Either	4/10 / After lvl3 and on your side of the tower you should win, if he uses his E to dodge yours then just go back and fight again.	If I'm playing against Volibear (in Mid), I want to Q max since I do not win close trades with Conquerer early.	After third is Void / Rabadon / Shadowflame / Banshee's / etc...
35	Swain	Either / Either	6/10 / Be careful early with Aery spam Q, after lvl6-9 you should be winning.	So, I'm maxing Q and try to farm and go W max second since I will still need to have long fights against him as he's not squishy.	Even Randuins, Abyssal, etc... are viable and S+ tier If enemy has
36	Syndra	Electrocute / Either	7/10 / Depends, try to buffer her E with your E2, and try to one shot her, otherwise Q max to match tempo.	If I'm playing against Syndra/Hwei, I want to Q max because it's really hard to take short trades after lvl3 if they hold E.	2+ CRIT users on enemy or 3+ AP and your team also has some AP.
37	Taliyah	Electrocute / Either	9/10 / Early depends, but try to engage whenever you see E2 angles, could buffer her W with E2.	So, I'm maxing Q and try to one shot her or get really good trades after lvl6-9 or that I think getting close is not going to work	⭐ While all of those being viable, with Conquerer you the "BiS" build is...
38	Talon	Electrocute / Either	6/10 / Early sucks, dodge his W2 passive and then engage.	and I will try to farm and match tempo against their wave clear.	Rocket > Cosmic/Zhonya/Rift > Zhonya/Dcap/Randuins/Abyssal/Cosmic/Rift
39	TF	Electrocute / Either	3/10 / Could buffer your E2 with his gold card, but should be winning whenever you have E2 angles.	If I'm playing against LeBlanc/Fizz/Yasuo, I want to W max since hitting Q is really hard and not reliable enough.	With Electrocute, it is Rocket > Shadow/Zhonya/Storm > Zhonya/Dcap/Shadow/Storm
40	Veigar	Electrocute / Either	4/10 / Early is easy until lvl 6-9 then he farms under tower but try to fight on your side and one shot him with his ult.	So, I'm maxing W as it will have good value as I can use it in short trades and spam it whenever.
41	Vex	Electrocute / Either	6/10 / Dodge her fear ability with E and then engage, should be winning, or poke her with Q.	------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------	For Boots:
42	Viktor	Conquerer / TP	7/10 / Early sucks, could see trade angles after lvl3 but more realistically 6-9, should win side lane 1v1s.	❗ If all of that is too much for you then just 2Q -> W max -> E max.	In almost every case, Sorcs > Ionian, Conquerer W max being the outlier where Ionian is better.
43	Vlad	Either / Either	8/10 / Try to play as aggressive possible early with Ignite + Elec as he wins early and late, go in again if he uses W since its long CD.	As you will still have W max by level 9 and 2 points in Q makes it so you can clear wave in 2 Q's after first item.	In cases like 3+ AD or 3+ AP (or hard CC) then Steelcaps or Mercs will be better.
44	Xerath	Electrocute / TP	6/10 / Hard to ever get in range, just match tempo but if you can hit E2 you could one shot him after lvl6-9.		Example: Kindred, Akshan, and Cait in one team = Steelcaps
45	Yasuo	Conquerer / Either	9/10 / Don't take long trades and only trade on your side of lane, or when minions hitting your tower.	For Runes:	OR Elise, Ahri, and Leona in one team = Mercs
46	Yone	Electrocute / Ignite	6/10 / You should win early until BoRK, could Q max and poke him but dont take long trades.	⭐ While both are viable and the champion specifics are listed on the left, for the most part enemy comp and even your comp
47	Zed	Electrocute / Either	6/10 / If you dodge his combo then it's fine but just keep doing it for the rest of lane, E2 backwards if he ults as he apears on your back.	makes the last call on your Main Rune.	Against Bruisers / Tanks in Mid Lane:
48	Zoe	Electrocute / TP	9/10 / Only real way to win is if she misses E when she is ulting then you can E2 into her first ult location, if she's smart enough GG.	❗ Resolve secondary is the norm, even with Electrocute although all the options are almost all equally viable.	Conquerer -> Mana Flow + Trans is ideal with TP/Ignite depending on the champion and your playstyle.
49	Ahri			Inspiration secondary is also a good second choice when neither Second Wind or Bone Plating has good value in the matchups.	2-3 points in Q -> W max -> E max or even Q -> W -> E max
50	Akali			WITH ELECTROCUTE If your playstyle is aggressive then I would recommend going Precision secondary	Rocket/Bloodletters -> Cosmic -> Rift/Zhonya
51	Akshan			Triumph has insane value in fights to survive (+ works as a mini Treasure Hunter)
52	Anivia			and Cut Down does the same If not more damage then Sudden Impact.
53	Annie			------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
54	Asol			For Example:
55	Aurora			If I'm playing against Yone/Talon, since I know SW or BP won't have good value I can take Inspiration secondary which would
56	Azir			also pair well with Ignite If that's what I wanted to take and play more aggressive.
57	Cass			If I'm playing against Ahri/Fizz, I know SW/BP will have good value that game so I'm opting into Resolve secondary.
58	Diana			Or you could just do Precision secondary every game, especially good If you're smurfing.
59	Ekko			------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
60	Fizz			Highlighted runes below are the ones to take when its secondary.
61	Galio			Inspiration is Cookies + Cosmic Insight
62	Hwei			Domination is Sudden Impact + Grisly Mementos + Relentless Hunter
63	Irelia			Resolve is Second Wind/Bone Plating + Overgrowth
64	Jayce			Precision is Triumph + Cut Down
65	Kass			Sorcery is Mana Flow + Transcendence + Scorch
