Today, I'm going to share with you something I achieved for the first time in set 16. Finishing the game with 100 lives is nearly impossible because at one point, your opponents can run out of gold and catch you off guard. This can happen even at the beginning of the game. So how did I manage to do it? Let's watch and analyze!

Rift visited us and replaced the monsters with crabs that grant additional loot.
I chose Two Trick as my first augment. I usually don't like this type of augment; I prefer late-game augments, but I couldn't find one in this game and wanted to try something different. This augment grants two 2-gold, 2-star champions and two 1-gold, 2-star champions.
I aimed to get through the early game with a winning streak thanks to this augment, and I succeeded. 2-star Ashe is really strong; yes, her items aren't complete, but I don't need them. She deals good damage even with just one item. My frontline was also quite tanky.
For the second augment, I chose Invested. This augment won't make me stronger in fights, but it will help me reach level 9 quickly. It grants me 26 gold and gives me 1 shop refresh for every 10 gold I have over 50 gold.
The reason I did so well in the mid-game was the champions I found. I managed to find Swain, who is an excellent frontline champion, and I also added Ahri to the backline. I've told you before how good Ahri is. Even at 1 star, she can carry the team.
I also need a combat augment; economy alone won't win me the game. You know my favorite combat augment is Last Second Save. When my champions' health drops below 35%, they'll restore 20% of their health.
This was one of the closest fights so far. If I hadn't spent my gold at level 8 to stabilize my throne, I would have lost this fight.
Alright, I've now reached level 9 and unlocked Ryze. To unlock Ryze, you need to unlock 4 different regions. In this game, I activated the Targon, Yordle, Ionia, and Freljord regions. Ryze's ability changes depending on the regions you activated.
My composition is almost complete now. I have 3 different carries. My first carry is Yunara, and her best items are Guinsoo's Rageblade, Kraken's Fury, and Infinity Edge. My second carry is Ryze, and his best items are Spear of Shojin, Jeweled Gauntlet, and Rabadon's Deathcap. My third carry is Lissandra, and her best items are the same as Ryze's.
Huh, another close fight. You see the damage graph, right? You'll always see these champions in the top 3.
My opponent is playing an Ixtal composition and has unlocked Brock. He still has health, and if Brock can reach 2 stars, he could win the game. Since I'm in a very good position in the game right now, it would be wise to analyze my opponents a bit. If they get anything to 3 stars, I could lose the game.
One of the compositions that made it to the top 4 was Yordle. It's been nerfed multiple times, yet it's still here, which is surprising.
I could easily go to level 10 now, but instead, making a 4-gold champion 3-star would give me a more guaranteed win. I could make Lissandra, Yunara, Wukong, or Taric 3-star. My economy is that good.
I eliminated Yordle. I should spend my gold before my other opponent dies, otherwise it'll go to waste since I can't carry it over to the next game :P
If it weren't for me, this Brock composition could have easily won the game. I couldn't get all my champions to 3 stars, but Taric and Wukong at 3 stars are enough. Since they couldn't get past my front lines, my backline carries easily killed my opponent. Ryze is again at the top of the damage chart.
Actually, my opponent could have lasted one more round, but they surrendered when they realized they had no chance. Otherwise, I would have sold some champions on my board and tried to get the rest to 3 stars :P
Thanks for reading, see you in the next post!
