Even if your team lacks any decent AP damage,Seraphine, at her core, is a supporting champion, so if you want more damage usually go for aery. It improves ur poking and it also fattens up ur shielding early.

In short, i don t know if you re going to play this champion again but you can genuinely carry games without using your brain if you just itemise right. So, here's what i recommend you, for most games.

If you play Seraphine support, always take exhaust. It works too well with your e for you to not take it. if you don t feel confident that you know who to exhaust, then take barrier. Both sums work great on you because of the way they can be used in your kit.

Your first back should prefferably be a tear, tier 1 boots and a pink if you have the money. if you re forced to base earlier go for the boots and the pink. Rushing cdr boots is just too good on seraphine, since your main abilities have moderately high cooldowns and being able to shave off from that highly helps you spam your abilities and proc your passive more often.

Your mythic should always be moonstone(except if you are the only ap champion on your team, but even then moonstone is just too strong right now to go for anything else). the amount of healing and shielding you can give to your team can carry games. Utility should always be prioritised over damage, and seraphine has a lot of utility. Try to capitalise on that.

Guardian is just too clutch, the shield can give you a free w heal if you don t have your passive stacked. It's also really good in general to help mitigate some poke and harass in lane. This is great if you re playing the lane safe.

As said earlier, aery is your bread and butter for playing aggressively. The poke, the shield power, you have it all. this is great if you want to be the dominant support in lane.

3rd item should usually be another support item, like ardent or staff, depending on what your team needs, but you could also go an early zhonyas if they have a lot of ad/assassins. Then you can go into either redemption or chemtech putrifier. They're both really good situational items. Redemption is for that aoe heal that can come in clutch and save a fight, or give you enough hp to take baron or drag after a fight, chemtech is for when the enemy has a fed sylas, mundo, really anybody that has ridiculous amounts of healing, but if your team has all build grievous wounds, then you don t need to but that. Last item usually is rabadons. Rarely do you get around to actually buying this item, esp since it s really expensive, but if the game goes on long enough for you to have to buy a rabadons, then it s most likely needed for the extra ap. This one's just a damage and utility steroid.
