Xayah ARAM Build 26.22

B

Xayah litters the packed bridge with feathers as the endless fight rages, then Bladecaller yanks them all back to root a whole row of clumped enemies at once. Deadly Plumage ramps her attack speed for the front-to-back grind, and Featherstorm lifts her untargetable over the top of a big engage or the poke aimed at her. She scales into a monster the longer the brawl runs.

Xayah Item Build

Feathers are Xayah's engine, and attack speed is what spins it fastest: Clean Cuts drops one on every ability-charged auto while Deadly Plumage ramps her swing rate, so a fuller Bladecaller root is really the payoff of stacked attack speed. Crit does the finishing, since her Clean Cuts autos rake every body along their path and a critical pass through a stationary line lands on several at once.

Best Xayah Runes

Lethal Tempo fits the way Xayah wants the endless teamfight to unfold, always attacking into a clumped team that cannot spread out on the narrow bridge. She sheds Feathers with every spell and auto, so the longer she is left firing, the bigger the Bladecaller root she is building toward. Take the page that keeps her alive and swinging while the feathers pile up.

Rush Yun Tal Wildarrows into Navori Flickerblade and settle in behind the frontline where Xayah can carpet the choke with Feathers. On a bridge where every fight is a clumped 5v5, she rains Double Daggers into the pile between skirmishes, then Bladecaller calls the whole field of feathers home to root the grouped enemy team. Build the damage that turns that root into a fight-ending pickoff.

Xayah Skill Order

Deadly Plumage begins ranking at 8 and finishes at 13, and the attack speed the Abyss hands out compounds with what those ranks give, so the blade storm ramps harder than the Rift version. Double Daggers pays the bill, holding its opening rank until 14.

Prioritize E so the Feathers falling into the clump hit for more every time she throws them, then W, then Q. Her whole ARAM plan runs through the Bladecaller root, so build the biggest feather field you can before pulling it through the packed team. Save Featherstorm to dodge a burst of poke and reset a wall of daggers behind the enemy.

Xayah ARAM Abilities

One piece the feather talk skips is Deadly Plumage, a blade storm that ramps her attack speed and damage, then layers on move speed once she strikes a champion to chase or reposition. Even Featherstorm rains recallable feathers, so her leap feeds the pile rather than pausing it.
