How to play Ahri in ARAM Mayhem

Ahri is a strong pick in ARAM Mayhem on patch 26.21: tier A, #27 of 173 champions, with a 52.2% win rate over 1,277,565 games.

Ahri's damage is mixed (3% physical, 70% magic), which makes it awkward for the enemy team to itemize against. A notable 27% of it is true damage.

The AP build, ability power items, is both the most played and the top-ranked path: Luden's Echo, Rabadon's Deathcap and Shadowflame, with a 51.5% win rate over 886,403 games. For boots, most players buy Sorcerer's Shoes, but Ionian Boots of Lucidity rank higher.

The cards that do best on Ahri are Wooglet's Witchcap, Infinite Recursion and Mad Scientist. Cards built around ability haste fill most of the top of its list, followed by movement speed. Most of its S-tier cards are prismatic, so a prismatic offer is often the pick that shapes the game. Skip Endless Decimation and Glass Cannon when you can: they do worst on Ahri. A pair to look for: Witchful Thinking with Hand of Baron.

Take Flash and Ghost (45% of players). Max Q (Orb of Deception) first, then W, then E.
