Kalista Build Guide

Kalista depends on a support who can work with her spear throws, and ranked numbers on patch 16.13.1 show a 49.2% winrate with a 2.06% pickrate. Her frequent hops make her a difficult ADC to pin down during laning phase.

Lethal Tempo builds her passive attack speed fast, while a core of Statikk Shiv, Guinsoo’s Rageblade, and Terminus keeps her dangerous against both fragile and armored enemies. Level her abilities E first, then Q, then W. The full item route, rune setup, and lane matchups follow below.
