Try to freeze the wave early at any cost, her gank setup is too great for you to overextend, consider second item banchee to have a greater chance of winning 1v1
Lee Sin
You can R the target leesin just kicked towards you even tho they might not be looking at you and they will get stunned.

Without further ado, let's get into the guide.






+ 1v10 Hyper carry + Huge DPS + Insane scaling + Fast at taking objectives + Great teamfighting + High skill ceiling + Very rewarding when mastered ![]() ![]() ![]() |
![]() |
-- A lot of bad matchups -- Takes long time to ramp up -- Short range -- Very mechanically intensive -- Immobile -- Very mana hungry early game
|


I play this set up of runes if the enemy teamcomp has a lot of slows / is long range based. The other option is Conqueror
Sorcery primary, domination secondary.
Conqueror primary, domination secondary.
Manaflow band |
![]() |
★ Manaflow band Best option since it gives you free mana which helps with ![]() |
Transcendence |
![]() |
★ Transcendence CDR is very important on Cassiopeia since she is a DPS mage that relies on spamming abilities. |
Waterwalking |
![]() |
★ Waterwalking ( MID ) Is byfar the most underrated rune in MID lane and its going to be your primary option, secondary being ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Gathering Storm |
![]() |
★ Gathering Storm ( BOT/TOP ) Is best in BOT lane and TOP lane where you wont be able to move outside of your lane to make roams or gank escapes through river happen. |

Taste of Blood |
![]() |
★ Taste of Blood Gives you some extra needed sustain in lane. |
Ravenous Hunter |
![]() |
★ Ravenous Hunter Gives you insane amounts of mid/late game healing which is crucial since you are a sustained DPS mage which wants to be in extended fights. |
Take 10% scaling cooldown if there is close to 0% chance of solo killing the enemy, lets say when versing a super tank in TOP lane or in situations where the whole enemy team is very tanky and you'll want to buy 2nd item ![]() |

Starting items
Sapphire Crystal is by far the most optimal first item in most situations, giving you mana which equals to damage, it gives you quite a lot more early lane pressure than ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Refillable Potion Is a really good item to pick up when you have 150g to spare. The earlier you buy it, the better. It is extremely gold efficient, as it gets refreshed once you base. |
Control Ward Buy it on basically every base when you have some gold leftover, during mid-late game always buy it instead of small component items(400-600gold), sell your starting items such ![]() ![]() ![]() the initiative in getting vision control around those area's is a must. |
Archangel's staff ( 1 )The FIRST item you're going to be buying every single game. Its a must since ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Rylai's Crystal Scepter ( 2-3 )Buy this item SECOND in most of your games, especially if you are ahead or the enemy team has a lot of squishy champions. Its a great item since it fits ![]() |
Liandry's Torment ( 2-3 )Buy this item SECOND if you are slightly behind, or if the enemy team has a lot of bruisers/tanks since this item does CRAZY %hp damage. The passive of this item is ideal for ![]() |
Deathcap The best late game AP item in the game. Best bought as FOURTH item. It synergizes well with most of the mages, even better so on Cassiopeia because she can build 6 AP items, giving you an absurd amount of stats. |
Void Staff Great if enemy team has stacked some MR. |
Morellonomicon Good into teamcomps that have a lot of healing effects/champions such as ![]() ![]() |
Banshee's Veil Key item against heavy Magic damage or CC teamcomps, great SECOND item if enemy team has a bursty AP MID with great pick off potential for example ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Zhonya's Hourglass Is a really good item to pick up SECOND when enemy team has assassins or a lot of AD champions in general. Build ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |






Once you get


Laning Example 1 - You're playing against a long range poke mage like



Laning Example 2 - You're playing against an opponent with great gank setup such as



Laning Example 3 - You're playing against a melee assassin such as



These are just basic examples of how laning should be executed depending just on the 1v1 matchups without taking JUNGLERS into account .




You should have it already pre-planned how and in what exact situation you're going to use it, just use some Visualization before the fight happens while looking at who's the biggest threat/carry in the opposing team.
The most consistent way to fight as

Like mentioned in ABILITIES section, you should make


You recognize the Opportunity - you go in.
