Alistar Build Guide
As an anchor for the support role, Alistar is putting up a 50.64% winrate at a 4.16% pick rate on patch 16.13.1, according to current ranked data — respectable figures for a champion whose value comes from peeling and engage rather than raw stats. Aftershock is the keystone that fits his all-in playstyle, granting a defensive spike right as he dives in.
Skill priority runs Q, then W, then E, prioritizing his headbutt-combo setup early. Locket of the Iron Solari, Zeke’s Convergence, and Knight’s Vow round out his build, all aimed at keeping teammates alive through fights. The item path, runes, and toughest lane counters are covered in full below.
