AD Lethality Assassin

Item path

1. 01

   Tiamat (Hydra component)

   Buy the Hydra component first for early wave clear and AD. You complete it into Ravenous Hydra later, after Sword of the Occult.

2. 02

   Boots of Swiftness

   Slow resist and raw movement speed keep you sticky on melee tops and let you walk out of ganks.

3. 03

   Sword of the Occult

   Snowball item — every kill on a fed Wukong turns your Q into an execute. Stack it before you finish Hydra.

4. 04

   Ravenous Hydra

   Complete Hydra after Occult. The active burst and lifesteal let you dive, reset, and shove waves all at once.

5. 05

   Youmuu's Ghostblade

   The lethality engine: armor pen and the movement speed active for gap-closing before you ult.

6. 06

   Black Cleaver

   Stacks shred armor on the front line and give the HP you need to survive your own dive.

7. 07

   Frozen Mallet

   Permanent slow on hit. Nothing walks away from a Wukong who already caught them once.

How it plays

• Level 1–5: shove with Q and Hydra, look for a level 2 or 3 all-in when they step up to the minions.
• Use the decoy (W) to bait skillshots or to fake a retreat before turning back onto the enemy laner.
• Once Occult has stacks, your job is to be somewhere on the map every 30 seconds — top lane is a launch pad, not a home.
• Ult into the biggest clump you can find, but land Hydra + E first so the knock-up is unavoidable.
• If the game goes long, Cleaver and Mallet let you play frontline-assassin: dive the carry, survive, chase the rest.
