How to play the Giant Mage lineup early game
Starting with a team consisting of 2 Mages and 2 Giants is one of the options you can aim for in the early game, with Ahri taking on the role of dealing primary damage. On the top side, alongside the resilience of the Giant units, Neeko is also a very formidable champion in the early game, helping your team become more robust while also dealing significant damage. The additional stats from the Celestial trait will also give your team an advantage in the early stages of the match.
For items, prioritize Guardian Angel for Ahri to increase her damage output. You can also early combine strong defensive items like Bloodthirster or Stoneplate to make your tank lineup stronger. Once you have a 2-star composition, winning streaks become achievable.
How to play the Giant Mage lineup mid-game
In the mid-game, besides completing your frontline with 4 Giants, add Kindred and Yone to boost your team's damage output. Physical damage items can also be crafted for Kindred to enhance her strength, and these will also be items for Udyr later on. Prioritize leveling up as early as possible in this phase. You can also lightly roll at 50 gold to reach 2-star power spikes for crucial champions like Kindred or Thresh.
How to play the Giant Mage lineup late-game
The late-game Giant Mage lineup includes:
- 6 Giants: Cho'Gath, Shen, Yorick, Thresh, Ornn, Udyr
- 3 Fates: Thresh, Syndra
- 2 Mages: Ahri, Syndra
At level 8, leverage your advantages to complete your team composition, with Ornn and Syndra being crucial units to ensure your strength can compete with other players. Ornn's item hacking ability at this stage is also vital in making your tank lineup more robust.
Meanwhile, Syndra will be the main damage dealer in the Giant Mage lineup with a combination of items including Blue Buff, Guardian Angel, and Hextech Gunblade. Udyr is also a key player in this lineup, providing additional damage and causing annoyance to opponents with his swift maneuvers.
