Early Assassins Team Comp & Build

Assassins is a unique team composition to run in terms of gameplay. As soon as the battle begins, all Assassins jump to the enemy farthest away from their initial position. Running Assassins is not only a popular late game strategy, but they are also widely used early game. You need 3 Assassins to unlock the tier 1 Assassin buff, which gives Assassins 150% critical damage. In the early game, the 3 Assassins you are most likely to be running are Kha’Zix, Pyke, and Zed. Kha’Zix is a 1 gold unit, and both Pyke and Zed are 2 gold units. With this simple setup, Zed also receives the Ninja buff tier 1, which increases his Attack Damage by 40%. There is no obvious build to go into further on in the game, which is why most players tend to build 6 Assassins late game. If you do, however, pick up Rengar, you only need one other Wild unit to get the Wild buff. Same goes for Katarina, an Imperial, who only needs one other Imperial to receive the tier 1 Imperial buff.

Team comp example: Kha’Zix, Pyke, Zed
