Kai'Sa Build Guide

Kai’Sa is a versatile bot lane marksman whose abilities draw on both attack damage and ability power. Ranked numbers on patch 16.13.1 show a 48.78% winrate and a 15.26% pickrate. Her abilities change as the match goes on, so players who adjust their item choices along the way tend to get the most out of her.

Lethal Tempo suits her mixed damage output, and Kraken Slayer, Guinsoo’s Rageblade, and Nashor’s Tooth together boost attack speed and on-hit effects for steady DPS. Abilities should be leveled Q first, then E, then W. The full build breakdown, rune pages, and matchup counters follow below.
