Rek’Sai (1G) - Brawler
[Link to Champion Page]
As a one gold Brawler, Rek’Sai will likely find his way onto a lot of boards in the early game and potentially be a rerolled unit in Eldritch in order to be a 3 star unit that is sacrificed.
The ability, Uproot has the passive of restoring health each second tripled for seconds after casting. The active is to lunge out of the ground, stunning adjacent enemies for a second and dealing magic damage to them.
Veigar (1G) - Sprykin + Spellweaver
[Link to Champion Page]
Veigar is a one gold Spellweaver with the ability Primordial Burst. Primordial Burst is a low cost spell at only 30 mana where it launches a giant blast at a target that deals magic damage, increased to if they’re below max health. If they die, permanently gain Ability Power!
Veigar is a lot of fun as scaling 1 cost units is always fun if you are able to get an early 2 or 3 star of it. This is a potential hyper carry of the comp as you can reroll Veigar and Rek’Sai so you have a front line and later a good sacrifice option for Veigar!
Veigar will want to cast a lot with a 30 mana cost, so expect a lot of mana as well as potentially adding critical strike potential and maybe additional flat AP to ensure he can start stacking AP nice and early on top of pairing him with a Spellweaver to have additional ability power!
Karma is also a 1 gold Spellweaver and could be a potential reroll opportunity to go along with Rek’Sai and Veigar as well.
Warwick (2G) - Ravager
[Link to Champion Page]
Warwick has the ability Jaws of the Beast. The ability gets him to bite the current target, dealing physical damage and healing for the damage dealt. He gains attack speed for the rest of combat.
With Ravager Warwick can be paired with Akali (1G), Camille (1G), Murkwolf (2G), Diana (3G), and Brambleback (4G). We will have to see if we have another “War-Week” with Warwick!
Azir (3G) - Executioner + Summoner
[Link to Champion Page]
Azir is 3 gold with a cheap ability of 35 mana called Arise! With Arise, Azir gains attack speed and summons soldiers for the next number of attacks. These attacks are replaced by commands which direct each soldier to deal magic damage per attack.
Azir can be paired with several Executioners including Yunara (2G), Ezreal (4G), Soraka (4G), and Kennen (5G).
Malphite (4G) - Monolith
[Link to Champion Page]
Malphite is essentially a traitless unit. Monolith is only on Malphite with the passive ability that Monoliths gain armor and magic resistance for each enemy targeting them.
It is essentially having a Gargoyle Stoneplate on a unit but as a trait! With his ability Petrified Bark where he gains a shield for seconds and becomes petrified. When the shield breaks, it unleashes a wave of dark energy, dealing magic damage to enemies within hexes.
Lux (5G) - Avatar
[Link to Champion Page]
Lux’s Eldritch Bonus is to stun all targets hit for a second. This is very strong as she casts for only 60 mana so she will likely get multiple casts off and stun several units per a cast. This crowd control will be game winning in a lot of cases!
Lux’s ability Final Spark also has a passive where on cast all allies that share a trait with Lux gain mana. WIth her active, she fires a laser towards the largest group of enemies that deals magic damage, reduced by each enemy hit.
Lux will be the unit that this Trait really looks at using to cap out as the stunning ability is huge and also allows a player to drop an Eldritch if Lux’s unique trait is Eldritch.
