Tear on Ashe

Deustheproducer·Dec 8, 2014·1 votes·1,200 views

So the way I always build ashe on ARAM is

and some situational item if I even get that far. So... My question is. Could this be viable on summoners rift? By building maru, and then attack speed ashe becomes a slow machine

Basically i max my volley and q first and foremost having volley at max by level 9, and basicall leave my q on indefinitly. Then just volley (every 3 seconds) and aa to kite and keep enemies basically slowed at all times. I want to try this on a normal or something but im unsure

I wouldn't build tear on a normal build. Building tear in general is a huge gimp to any champion's earlygame, and Ashe doesn't have the greatest earlygame to begin with. Not to mention she's immobile so she can use a 6th defensive item. Your build doesn't include last whisper.

you lack arpen too much> item 3035 . For better kiting, get item 3087 instead of item 3046 and item 3153 instead of item 3072

It's not an unviable build, the main problems it will face will be problems with your champion pick rather than items. I would replace Phantom Dancer with something else but otherwise it should work.

Tear is important in aram for sustain. In normals It's not needed. However, if you do want to roll with a weird on hit build, I suggest trying Essence Reaver + Hurricane + Static Shiv + other on hit items. She builds shiv procs like crazy and never runs out of mana with the ER passive.

It's a bit of an off ADC build if your tram has a melee one, but provides way more utility and pushing power.

[Edit] personaly I prefer to rush Zypher on Ashe these days. My biggest issue isn't mana, it's the inability to kite early with such garbage MS. If you start Shiv or Phantom you gimp your AD. Zypher provides AD + AS + MS + CDR. I can kite and farm and arrow more early with this itemx and still do reasonable damage. It's amazing how good it feels over trying to rush infinity edge. Give it a try before you judge.

meh, I don't really see a reason to keep the Q on. Rarely does Ashe get fed enough where it's safe to chase for an extended time.

Chasing isnt really my biggest concern, its more /being/ chased as I see it, and using her AA's to kite and stutterstep basically

Go for an essence reaver instead and then drop the bloodthirster unless you specifically want more lifesteal.

Essence reaver is super underrated. the CDR is great on champs who actually utilize it.

It's viable. You should get IE earlier. Completing IE is her biggest power spike.

Tear -> IE -> Manamune -> whatever

I'd recommend for a lot of champions an AD caster build because it offers more versatility which is important if you don't know what you're up against. Ashe, Varus, Jinx and Caitlyn are champions I commonly build on: (not only these though) item 3142 item 3004 item 3035 item 3279 item 3508 item 3139

And with great success. High range damage offers consistent DPS while autoattacking is only possible with a team backing you up.

I personally think you should either get a caster build like I do and get Manamune or go for an autoattack build with PD IE BT LW + another item. (Essence Reaver if you want to cast more? I think I'd go for a item 3142 though)
