Overview

Lunar Aphelios is a fast-8 comp at heart — the mid game only exists to deliver you to level 8 with enough gold to find Nidalee. On current data — roughly 91,500 games, 4.31 average finish — it sits in Tier A.

Placement-wise that makes it #6 overall out of 54 comps we track, 0.18 better than the Tier A median of 4.48. Popularity is the catch: 9.84% of tracked games feature it against a median of 0.9%, and shared cores get expensive to hit.

Item priority

How often each item appears across the 91,701 tracked games of this comp, and the average placement of games holding it. The comp's own average (4.31) is the control. Ordered by frequency — a rare item with a great average is survivorship, not a slam.
