How to Get PERFECT Aphelios Combos

okay aios the allegedly most complicated champion in the game you guys have spoken and the question of how to get perfect ailos combos seems to be a rather interesting one I mean I understand the nature of aio's Kit can be very intimidating for people who want to pick up the champion but fortunately managing aphelios's weapons and ammunition in a way that allows you to actually carry your games can be broken down to very few simple aspects as you're about to see yes you can find all sours of charts and tables on the internet telling you exactly when to deplete each individual weapon for optimal rotations but these are quite worthless sure they look nice in a vacuum but the reality of solo Cube looks very different to illustrate that and also to show you how you can apply ailos Theory to actual real games we're going to analyze the play style of none other than Cody one of the best Marksman players on the planet but let's start with the Rune and item choices since your weapon management doesn't even matter matter if you load into the game with the wrong setup ailos can work with a variety of rather standard Marksman Rune pages but the best one also used by Cody looks like this you go for Fleet footwork overheal Legend bloodline and cutdown with biscuit delivery and Cosmic inside secondary this page is really the perfect mix of a reliable Lane phase and good scaling aios has a lane phase very similar to that of Caitlyn due to his long ranged sniper rifle with which he starts this allows you to outrange and Bully your enemies with your auto attacks very early on and Fleet footwork perfectly plays into that strategy the combination of kiting and extra Health makes it very hard for the enemy to punish ailos and for a late game scaling crit Champion having this extra early reliability can go a long way AOS is also a rather squishy Champion so overheal comes and clutch in that regard again perfect Synergy with one of your starting weapons since the Scythe does apply life steal to your auto attacks and while life steal is both in your build and also in your core items you still go legend bloodline for better scaling AOS is notorious ly squishy and any extra Health he can get will matter however due to that squishiness he's also a perfect user of the Rune cutdown your strongest damage option in the next row While most other ad8 carries typically only take cut down into really tanky matchups aios will get great value out of this one every single game due to the nature of his base stats now a lot of aio's early power especially from levels 2 to 5 comes from the fact that he can get three or sometimes even four Q casts off in a single fight if you don't know what I mean by that you will see in just the second but biscuit delivery actually gives you the Mana to cast all these spells now Cosmic Insight is just a generally useful Rune in all stages of the game reducing the cool down of your trinket and your Summoner spells but also of aios as Mythic item which is most important the item build overall is rather streamlined you go Kraken Slayer Berserker griefs gale force blood thirster Lord Doms and guardian angel in pretty much every game the build provides you with a lot of safety while still allowing for very strong Auto attacks all the weapon combos and rotations aside ailos is first and foremost an auto attack based Champion Kraken Slayer essentially carries his damage output especially since he will be attacking a single Target for extended periods of time he also has crit scalings in his build so standard ad carry crit items make the most sense now these first three items of Kraken gale force and blood thirst that try to deal with aio's biggest weakness as well Infinity edges always more damage naturally but the extra movement speed of gale force will allow you to escape in situations in which you would Otherwise Die sometimes with just as movement speed but of course the dash is the main setting point and the main reason we want Cosmic Insight in our Rune page the more often you have access to Gale Force's Dash the better now the life steal on blood thirster in combination with overheal shield and the extra Health from Legend bloodline will allow you to be relatively tanky despite your low base Health Lord Doms can be substituted for mot to reminder in some matchups but in general aios really wants the Giant Slayer passive due to his stats GA is strong late game insurance but other items such as more of mous or mercurial syima also work in some matchups Oh and before we jump into the analysis you Max your attack damage first your lethality second and your attack speed third generally speaking AOS has a very strong early game however level one you have none of your spells and only your two starting weapons you got to be very careful as a result you only really can start fighting level two onwards so right now all you can do is poke with your longrange sniper rifle the long range makes it relatively easy to pressure the enemy and reach level two before they do although in this Lane in particular that they are playing against an Alistar who is also very weak level one which certainly helps ailos but have a look at this situation as you can see the sniper rifle is almost depleted goes empty as Q is cast so ailos has an extra weapon at his disposal these are the situations in which you try to all in the enemy it doesn't work all the time of course sometimes the enemy just disengages or the situation is not right but as you saw he immediately fired the spell to potentially hit them with three qes in Rapid succession but aelas can also create Allin plays himself especially as long as the gravity Cannon is equipped it's a nice source of crowd control hard crowd control for that matter with the activated Q allowing your support to follow up very easily you can then chase down the enemy with your slowing Auto attacks making it very difficult for them to escape especially since the threat of your second que after a w cast is always live as the play continues we can also see the trick from earlier in action in a full-fledged fight cue when you have below 10 ammo to deplete the ammo instantly and gain a new weapon while also casting the Q spell now a FS can cast Q with a new weapon and then switch weapons again for a third Que in a single fight making for enormous burst damage which very few ad carries can match the extra Q Roots Z in place here and now Fus is an easy time walking up and finishing the job the fact you essentially have access to more spells than the enemy at this early stage of the game makes him extremely deadly during the lane phase in any case as soon as aelio reaches the shakum notice how he uses Q after Q after Q with his other weapon to deplete it as fast as possible as soon as as that happens he reaches the red white combo which is ailia the strongest weapon combo at all stages of the game the Mantra is always red white let's fight and just by having this combo the enemy cannot even afford to approach him this leads to free farm and Free Lane priority of course when the enemy just leaves Lane you want to push as fast as possible to get the wave under Tower yourself so the enemy misses farm this way you're able to generate a small Advantage even if they don't fight you now a lot of these better known weapon combos such as red white white green or blue purple are mentioned in many guides you can find online but in reality sometimes you have to fight with suboptimal combos if the situation calls for it any combo is better than failing to react a lot of ailos players make this mistake of only playing the game when their weapon combos look textbook however Cody knows that he has to punish the enemy positioning mistakes no matter what weapons he has equipped and he can always deal huge damage anyway with qwq ultimate and then some Auto attacks at the end of the day even if you have suboptimal weapons equipped you still have two Q casts at your disposal plus your regular Auto attacks which are at the core of aio's damage anyway good ADC positioning in general is still the most important skill for this Champion however playing around these more synergistic weapon combos especially red white is important and when these weapons Get Low this is when AOS is most dangerous of course the situation was outright hopeless for Zia here due to the enormous burst damage of red white F but even had she lived or had she had backup AOS depleting his first weapon means he has an extra qcast in this fight increasing his overall damage output potential even more and this is really the main thing you need to keep in mind when playing aios fighting on low ammo is the best position you can be in of course in this fight ailos started kind of out of position but his damage output with regular Auto attacks is still absurd due to crit itemization and being able to get multiple Q casts in after weapon depletion is much stronger than any individual weapon combo can ever be in a fight but naturally you can make it more likely that the stars align and you do get a fight with these amazing weapon combinations if you group once you have them and once that happens ailos can absolutely Shred the enemy to Pieces the reason red plus white is so good is because Red Q allows you to stack shaks like crazy which then empowers your auto attacks like nothing else we are watching and analyzing a challenger tier game however so the enemy is not stupid enough to fully challenge an ailos at full power like this however shakr boosted Auto attacks are Godlike for an auto attack based Champion like AOS so if the enemy should challenge you to a full team fight once you're powered up they have no chance listening to how I talk about the felios you might get the impression he is unbeatable but he has his weaknesses of course he's an immobile ad carry so you need to be very careful about your positioning again weapon combos are a thing you can stress about a lot but proper ad carry positioning for an immobile Champion like ailos is ultimately the real key to winning your games but of course weapon combos are what differentiates good ailos players from the really great ones and as you can see Cody depletes his sniper rifle Q on purpose here to get the red white combo as the fight is about to start and start it will again you stack your shaks with your Red Q on the first possible Target and after Q is finished you switch to White Auto attacks and just gun down everyone doesn't matter how tanky they are AOS has the damage to muscle through even the bulkiest targets but the number one lesson for new ailos players who are just learning the champion is to never be afraid to fight even if you don't think your weapon combo is optimal you still have massively powerful Auto attacks no matter what and each weapon brings something to the table you can make use of and A good rule of thumb to follow that balances aelia's Theory with the chaotic reality of solo Q is to always look to deplete weapons that are neither red nor white first so you will end up with red white eventually which you can then use to look for fights again without proper decision making and AD carry positioning in general all these weapon combos mean exactly nothing so if you want to improve your ad carry knowledge in general click the link on your screen right there
