Item Build Description

Additional information on the items

Starting Items : You always Start with Long SwordLong Sword since the other starting items just doesn't make sense to purchase obviously.


Mid Tier Items : SheenSheen is a must have on camille, Increases your Damage output by 2x and can potentially outrade everyone in toplane except Jax which I'll explain later.


Core Items : Trinity ForceTrinity Force , [Deaths dance] are a must have items fo camille. Trinity ForceTrinity Force just doubles your [Camille:1] damage by 1.5x since the SheenSheen proc can be converted into true damage. [Deaths's dance] is the Core Defensive/Offensive item, Really good for sustain and prevents you from getting bursted and the stats help camille in general ( Sterak's GageSterak's Gage can be replaced by Maw of MalmortiusMaw of Malmortius against AP heavy team)


Situational Items :

BloodthirsterBloodthirster - A good late game item if you are hard carrying and don't want to buy defensive items, the whopping 65 AD is a huge spike for camille's damage.

Frozen HeartFrozen Heart - Cheap, Great stats / effect, what could you ask more? A relatively effective item against auto attack based enemies and since SheenSheen doesn't provide mana anymore frozen heart let's you stay in combat longer in late game that answers your mana problems

ThornmailThornmail - Better alternative than Mortal ReminderMortal Reminder since the Pen you get from that item is wasted.

Force of NatureForce of Nature - Textbook staple item for CamilleCamille amazing stats with a godly effect. This item easily tops Maw of MalmortiusMaw of Malmortius

You take if you can easily proc it. only time you swap out to conquer is when against Hard matchups where you can't properly proc grasp. You don't necessarily need conquerer since you already deal true damage with precision protocol and extra stats is much better than extra damage on a Champion thay already does well in that department.

Against Range/Hard matchups. You take triumph instead of hunter Vampirism because Camille's Precision ProtocolPrecision Protocol Deals True damage and Physical vamp only heals off of physical damages, Not true damage.

My new Favorite Keystone Playstyle for Camille. The moment speed and sustain makes you more annoying and powerful that pairs really well with the hit and run Mechanic. Can be used all the time from different matchup if you want to have a safe Early game.

Your very standard short-trade combo. It's very important to cancel the animation of your auto attack with Precision ProtocolPrecision Protocol to minimize the time window while keeping the DPS in check, I recommend starting to pull this combo when you have SheenSheen since it's a bit risky to be Aggressive early Against certain Champions in the early levels. But if Against easy Matchups don't be afraid to bully the enemy laner.


Note that each Hit of Precision ProtocolPrecision Protocol Provides movement speed so hitting the outer edge of HookshotHookshot will be easy.

Fast Combo, Great for teamfights and want to isolate the AD Carry. You use Precision ProtocolPrecision Protocol to get bonus MS and engage immediately with HookshotHookshot and Tactical SweepTactical Sweep mid air. Immediately press The Hextech UltimatumThe Hextech Ultimatum when you've closed the gap Against the enemy ADC. This will result for them to flash away while you've already used The Hextech UltimatumThe Hextech Ultimatum to trap them this will usually kill any ADC if your team manage to follow up.

A free win basically and against tanks in general, 2 of your abilities deal HP Based damage Tactical SweepTactical Sweep and The Hextech UltimatumThe Hextech Ultimatum , Precision ProtocolPrecision Protocol deals true damage. Him stacking HP is basically suicide for him.

Camille

Mechanics

Camille obviously has mechanics too.


Trinity ForceTrinity Force proc For Precision ProtocolPrecision Protocol Your Precision ProtocolPrecision Protocol has a 1.5 second Window before you can recast the true damage. Trinity ForceTrinity Force has a 1.5 cooldown as well. Go to practice tool and Practice Auto attack into prefect Timing precision protocol. Note that there's an Audio cue before you can recast precision protocol and it takes an auto attack + any ability to take up that Exact 1.5 second window (practice this until it's a muscle memory)


Your Adaptive DefensesAdaptive Defenses Shield. Your shield isn't based on the damage type of the enemy, your passive is based on WHICH type of damage being dealt to you more. You can get an AP shield from an AD Champion if they use their AP based abilities more than their AD based attacks. Good example is lee sin, His Tempest / CrippleTempest / Cripple does AP damage. If that's the damage you get hit first by him then you get an AP shield instead of AD even though lee sin is an AD Champion.

Always remember that Adaptive DefensesAdaptive Defenses can absorb turret damage if its the Physical Damage shield. Don't be afraid to poke the enemy under tower.

Camille

Final Words

Thank You for read until the very end of this Guide, took me 2 hours to write everything down in mobile. Apologies if this guide was a little late off schedule.

Camille

Playstyle

Camille is definitely an interesting and fun Champion to use. Her complexity as a Champion and how rewarding she can be is what makes her Worthy to learn.this is what a camille 1v9 looks like with a heavy team. Perfect Macro can win impossible games.
