Recommended Item Builds
Standard Critical Strike Build
Core Items: Kraken Slayer → Infinity Edge → Lord Dominik's Regards
This build maximizes your damage output. Kraken Slayer is chosen first for its attack speed, which helps you stack your Q faster, and for its true damage passive. Infinity Edge is the core of your damage, amplifying your critical strikes which synergize perfectly with your passive. Lord Dominik's Regards is essential third for shredding through tanks and bruisers.
Situational Items
Against Assassins: Guardian Angel, Shieldbow
Against Tanks: Blade of the Ruined King
For Kiting: Phantom Dancer
For Lifesteal: Bloodthirster
Rune Recommendations
Primary Rune: Lethal Tempo
Lethal Tempo is the best choice for Yunara. The bonus attack speed allows you to stack your Q incredibly fast in teamfights and synergizes with on-hit effects from items like Kraken Slayer. It turns you into a machine gun after a few seconds of auto-attacking.
Precision Tree
Presence of Mind → Legend: Bloodline → Coup de Grace
Secondary: Sorcery
Manaflow Band → Gathering Storm
Key Combos
Core Trading Combo
Use your W to slow the target, making it easier to land your burst. Follow up with E to reposition for safety or to close the gap, then activate your fully stacked Q for maximum damage.
Ultimate All-in
Activate your ultimate to enter the transcendent state. This empowers and resets your abilities. Immediately use the empowered W laser for high damage and slow, dash with E to a strategic position, and unleash your empowered Q for devastating area-of-effect damage in team fights.
