Item Build Description
Additional information on the items
Start by buying a
Long Sword
and get a
Serrated Dirk
for your first recall.
-
Youmuu's Ghostblade
is a very good item on Lee Sin because he roams a lot and
Youmuu's Ghostblade
gives him the mobility and attack speed he needs! - Lee Sin has a ton of abilities that let him dash around in a teamfight, but he is very squishy and very easy to one shot.
Guardian Angel
gives him the chance to get in and do a full combo without worry of dying easily. - Items such as
Trinity Force
,
Black Cleaver
and
Death's Dance
increases the amount of damage you deal, gives bonus hp and ability haste. I recommend building one of these two in your build. - Lee Sin is best played like a bruiser, not an assassin, so a Lee Sin build should have up to two to three defense items.
Sterak's Gage
shield you when you're low and grants extra attack damage, build it when enemy does burst damage.
Spirit Visage
increases the shielding on your
Safeguard
, build when you see fit.
Randuin's Omen
reduces enemy attack speed and crit damage, build against high attack speed or crit reliant marksman like
Jinx
or
Miss Fortune
.
Adaptive Helm
is the best item against mages like
Ahri
and
Orianna
, build it against teams that have a lot of ap burst. - Boots, take either [ninja tabi] or
Mercury's Treads
depending on the enemies composition, if they have more ad: go [ninja tabi], they have more ap: go
Mercury's Treads
. Afterwards, upgrade it to [locket enchant] or [stasis enchant] for survivability in teamfights.
Lee Sin Runes
Best Runes for Lee Sin
Take conqueror for more damage in long postponed fights.
Brutal for armor pen.
Hunter-Titan or Spirit walker for hp and less cc period.
Mastermind to take objectives faster.
Take Electrocute when you're playing assassin Lee Sin and planning on one shoting enemies.
Electrocute isn't really good in teamfights, so when playing this rune try to pick off their damage dealer instead of staying in the center of the fight.
