Swain Build Guide
Swain splits duty between mage and support roles, and on patch 16.13.1 he’s registering a 48.28% win rate at a 2.57% pick rate, with viability extending into the ADC role for players who want a different execution of his drain damage.
Electrocute punishes his burst combos in short trades, and his core build of Rylai’s Crystal Scepter, Liandry’s Torment, and Zhonya’s Hourglass slows enemies while adding survivability for his ultimate. Skills go Q, W, then E. The full build path, runes, and matchups are detailed further down the page.
