Ok, hear me out. Personally, I find crit oriented builds rly coin-flippy. In a perfect world where you are allowed to dodge every single control/artillery mage skillshot consistently and your frontlane DOES care about your existence, builing crit is way to go since it is the best dps oriented build.

But this is really unlikely to happen in soloq cause most of ppl autopiloting their champions, hoping for someone to carry. Even if you made crit build work rly well, you are squishy af so any glance at you makes you nervous. Your one mistake equals gg.

Going full on-hit won’t change much imo. Building terminus into jak’sho feels good, but both of this two items could be build in every build possible, so on-hit is very optional, but nos strong.

Kraken into trinity was a core build for a rly long time and this feels great. But the problem is, what 3rd item should I go?

IE doesn’t feel good since this is raw damage and nothing else. Building PD does feel good, I’ve used to build it a lot.

Building Maw or GA into heavy AP/Ad comps is always an option, but this is still situational and doesn’t fulfil Ashe’s needs if built too early.

I find experimental hexplate really strong 3rd item option. First of all, it provides really good stats, building HP is never a mistake cause you can tank more spells and u’r tanky enough to survive fed champs. 35sec R CD is omega OP imo, trinity hexplate is 50 AH for your ultimate spell which is really strong.

And once you press R u gain AS and MS you don not struggle with skipping PD.

Build Black cleaver 4th leads to 3500 health in total late game and clever does have good interaction with ashe Q. Build Maw GA last item depending on what damage enemy team deals = ur basically ranged bruiser with omega high survivability.

U can build basically anything after hexplate, most of iconic adc items feels good as a 4th and 5th option. BT, PD, IE, hurricane, bork or ldr, terminus into jak’sho e.t.c.

What do you think?
