Only with Bronze For Life: eight units, each pair a different trait at its first step, so the augment counts eight bronze traits for its Damage Amp (the second version adds armor and magic resist for each). Nidalee and Zyra carry, Malphite tanks.

When to play it

Either one will do; with it, this comp is B tier.

Overview

Take Bronze For Life only when your board already has several traits at their first step, and prefer II to I: II also adds armor and magic resist for each bronze trait. Nidalee and Zyra carry from the back, so hold Rods for Zyra and Sparring Gloves for Nidalee's Jeweled Gauntlet and Striker's Flail.

Units and items

Nidalee carries with Guinsoo's Rageblade, Jeweled Gauntlet and Striker's Flail. Zyra carries with Rabadon's Deathcap, Spear of Shojin and Void Staff. Malphite takes Crownguard, Gargoyle Stoneplate and Warmog's Armor.

Item order

  2. Guinsoo's Rageblade
  3. Gargoyle Stoneplate
  4. Void Staff
  5. Spear of Shojin

How to play Bronze For Life

Early game

Play the strongest pairs you hit: this line wants many traits at two units each.

Mid game

Level 8 at 4-1 and roll for Nidalee, Zyra and Malphite at two stars.

Late game

Keep every trait at its first step: a third unit of a trait turns it silver and the augment stops counting it.

TipCount traits, not units. Nidalee takes Guinsoo's Rageblade, Jeweled Gauntlet and Striker's Flail, Zyra Rabadon's Deathcap, Shojin and Void Staff, and Malphite the tank items.

Best augments

Augment priority: combat, then items.
