Camille might feel a little weak right now because of the current Olaf + Lulu meta, but she is still viable and is fun to play with combo mix-up and different playstyle in team fights whether it will be to isolate the enemy or dive for their backline with your team. Edit : After both Lulu and Olaf got nerfed, Camille is kind of "easier to play" in this patch because of the current famous Darius pick in this patch and people avoiding Lulu pick.

"Know your place!" - Guide for mastering Camille

Hi, I am ReaperSK138 (IGN : ReaperSK138#GODS) and I am a baron lane main with my fav champion being Camille! In this guide, I will try to cover as much as possible of everything about Camille that I learned so far in Wild Rift.

Item Build Description

Additional information on the items

The key to Camille high damage is SheenSheen (its passive synergizes very well with Camille's true damage) and PhagePhage is an additional item that will help you to trade more efficiently as Camille in the early game. After you finished the Trinity ForceTrinity Force and Teleport EnchantTeleport Enchant you would want to decide between Death's DanceDeath's Dance or Sterak's GageSterak's Gage depending on your playstyle ( Go Death's DanceDeath's Dance for more damage, and Sterak's GageSterak's Gage for more tankiness or Maw of MalmortiusMaw of Malmortius against heavy AP comp). After that I would normally go for Guardian AngelGuardian Angel if my team is ahead or go for Randuin's OmenRanduin's Omen or Adaptive HelmAdaptive Helm or Spirit VisageSpirit Visage if your team have a healer, depending on whether enemy AD or AP Champions are fed. The last item is completely flexible but it should be a defense item because CamilleCamille have enough damage in her kit already in the late game.

This rune set is to set up for your powerful mid-game power spike and has good sustain to lane against tanks / hard matchups. I personally prefer this rune set because of the short trades that CamilleCamille can do to the enemy laner and can serves as another surprise factor to outtrade them in the lane (e.g. surprising your enemy AkaliAkali with your Adaptive DefensesAdaptive Defenses + barrier + grasp proc at the same time could make her dive you in your turret and you come out surviving while the enemy AkaliAkali loses her summoner spells or just die by the turret shots)

The rune set that fits CamilleCamille with an aggressive playstyle, deals double damage than the grasp rune set if all runes output were maximized but fairly difficult and hard to pull off in 5v5 teamfights. For this rune to be most effective, in my opinion, your team have to focus on initiating skirmishes ( smaller fights like a 2v2 or 3v3 ) which is hard to do without proper communication in ranked games. That is the reason why I prefer the grasp rune set to the conqueror set

This rune sets has the same playstyle as the Grasp of the Undying one but more smooth with the extra movement speed.

Summoner Spells

When to take which summoners

Ignite
For solo kill potential in lane and to occasionally stop enemy laners from recalling
Flash
Almost every champion in Wild Rift right now must have Flash. ( You can also E + Flash to chase or surprise engage on the enemy)
Barrier
For outplay potential and a surprise factor when getting dived.

I max Tactical SweepTactical Sweep  when I am against a tough melee matchup like DariusDarius , OlafOlaf , FioraFiora for more poke and solo kill potential if they are low enough for an all-in

I max HookshotHookshot  when I am up against ranged melee matchup like VayneVayne , or [kaisa] (yes I have seen a high ranked Kaisa baron lane before) for more short trades

I max [camille:1] when I am up against easy melee matchup like GarenGaren , GragasGragas , NasusNasus , YasuoYasuo  for more damage on the true damage second Q

This combo is for when your jungler is about to come gank your lane, the strength of CamilleCamille is her extremely good ability to set up ganks. That is why you should use The Hextech UltimatumThe Hextech Ultimatum first to lock the enemy in >> do your standard combo if possible >> the jungler come and help you kill the enemy >> free kill (with the possibility of them burning Flash due to panic)

You can easily poke him with the first skill Precision ProtocolPrecision Protocol  after GarenGaren used his silence and wait for your jungler to come and use your The Hextech UltimatumThe Hextech Ultimatum  to secure the kill, but you can't really solo kill him because of his nature tankiness and his CourageCourage and if you get hit by many of his Decisive StrikeDecisive Strike and JudgmentJudgment combo, you might get solo killed instead with his execute ult Demacian JusticeDemacian Justice *Early Executioner's CallingExecutioner's Calling build is recommended*

Camille

Feel free to ask me!

For additional questions, you can ask me about anything, it doesn't have to be about Camille or baron laners it can be about other roles too. I play every role but my main is Baron Lane (This is my first guide, if you have any suggestions, feel free to PM me on reddit : u/ReaperSKGG or ask me in Wild Rift : ReaperSK138#GODS)

Wasn't adaptive helm removed in 2.2? Will you consider updating the build?
