Locke Build Guide

Locke has carved out a niche in both mid lane and jungle, and on patch 16.13.1 the numbers show a 48.96% winrate against a notably high 12.29% pickrate — a sign this champion draws plenty of attention despite being slightly below average. Electrocute rewards his ability to land quick burst combos before opponents can react.

The core build runs Lich Bane for on-hit burst, Shadowflame to punish squishier targets, and Zhonya’s Hourglass for survivability in extended fights. Skill priority is Q, then E, then W, emphasizing his primary damage tool early while delaying utility. For the full item progression, rune page, and matchup breakdown, see the guide below.
