Item Build Description
Additional information on the items
The key to Camille high damage is Sheen (its passive synergizes very well with Camille's true damage) and Phage is an additional item that will help you to trade more efficiently as Camille in the early game. After you finished the Trinity Force and Teleport Enchant you would want to decide between Death's Dance or Sterak's Gage depending on your playstyle ( Go Death's Dance for more damage, and Sterak's Gage for more tankiness or Maw of Malmortius against heavy AP comp). After that I would normally go for Guardian Angel if my team is ahead or go for Randuin's Omen or Adaptive Helm or Spirit 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 Camille have enough damage in her kit already in the late game.
Camille Runes
Best Runes for Camille
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 Camille can do to the enemy laner and can serves as another surprise factor to outtrade them in the lane (e.g. surprising your enemy Akali with your Adaptive Defenses + barrier + grasp proc at the same time could make her dive you in your turret and you come out surviving while the enemy Akali loses her summoner spells or just die by the turret shots)
The rune set that fits Camille 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.

Combos
Learn how to maximize the champions potential
I max Tactical Sweep when I am against a tough melee matchup like Darius , Olaf , Fiora for more poke and solo kill potential if they are low enough for an all-in
I max Hookshot when I am up against ranged melee matchup like Vayne , 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 Garen , Gragas , Nasus , Yasuo for more damage on the true damage second Q
This combo is for when you are going for short trades >> Hookshot into the enemy >> animation cancel with the Precision Protocol >> try to walk up and hit with the second proc of Precision Protocol for true damage >> disengage with Tactical Sweep
This combo is for when your jungler is about to come gank your lane, the strength of Camille is her extremely good ability to set up ganks. That is why you should use The 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)
Camille Matchups & Counters
Detailed information on how to play matchups and counters
You can easily poke him with the first skill Precision Protocol after Garen used his silence and wait for your jungler to come and use your The Hextech Ultimatum to secure the kill, but you can't really solo kill him because of his nature tankiness and his Courage and if you get hit by many of his Decisive Strike and Judgment combo, you might get solo killed instead with his execute ult Demacian Justice *Early Executioner's Calling build is recommended*

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)
