KNUCKLEDUSTER VI Patch 25.15

Catalysts:
(Catalysts are an in-game event that should signal you that it may be a good idea to play this comp. Typically, one catalyst is enough but the more the better).
- Knuckleduster Augment
- Must be uncontested

Pyrrhic Openers:
(Pyrrhic Openers (or "pyrrhics" for short) are openers that comes at such a great cost that it's essentially as bad as a defeat. Despite having some catalysts that enable the comp, you are better off playing something else).
- Someone takes the Dr.Mundo Hero Augment (Give 'em the Chair!)
- Kayle reroll player in your lobby (Juggernauts become more contested)
- Someone has an exalted adventure that includes Vi, or Jhin
- There's BOTH a Jhin and Smolder Reroll player
- (RARE) Gnar reroll player in your lobby

Power-Up Strategy:
- If you have an early Vi and know it's Gold augment on 2-1, you can use the fruit on Vi during Stage 1 to take Demolitionist. Despite being her best fruit, you cannot get this fruit once you have taken the Knuckledusters augment
- Otherwise, use the fruit on Vi during Stage 2 to try and get Trickster's.
- Fusion Dance is fine as well

General Tips
- Take item augments (almost) whenever you can, this is because of Vi's scaling in her new hero ability.
- Flex between Smolder or Jhin as your backline carry. At the time of writing, Jhin is highly uncontested as a unit, so I would default Jhin unless otherwise
- Make sure to hold onto 1 Gnar. He goes onto the board at level 7

Gameplan (Level 6 Reroll):
Save your economy up as much as possible without compromising copies of your crucial units, and do not push levels. On 3-2, level to 6 and roll until you find your 2* carry or you're stable. Econ back up until you have 50+ gold and then roll your shops until you reach 50 gold every turn until 4-2, or until you've found your units. If you still haven't found your main 3* carries and tanks by this point, roll down until you find them all 3*. Push levels after you recover your economy.
