Jungle

Qiyana Build 26.22

Terrain is Qiyana's weapon, and she pulls an element from the brush, river, or a wall to load her next hit with a slow, extra damage on a weakened target, or pure invisibility. Tough to justify at 47.5% and on the way up this patch, she bursts a squishy in one combo, but the real payoff is her ult, slam it into a wall and it detonates for an area stun. Learn the map corners and she goes from tricky to terrifying.

When Is Qiyana Strongest?

Power keeps building past the item spike into the second half, and games at this rank average around 28 minutes. Qiyana spikes hard once she has a couple of items and her element swaps online, so use the power window to roam and flank, catching an isolated carry or landing a wall stun that lets her clean up a grouped fight.

Qiyana Item Build

Qiyana is a high-mobility assassin who empowers her weapon with the terrain around her and one-shots squishies out of stealth or a flank. Her build stacks lethality, attack damage, and haste so her element-charged combo bursts a target and her cooldowns return for the next pick.

Best Qiyana Runes

First Strike is the keystone here, cashing in bonus value every time she wins the opening trade she is already looking to start. It rewards her aggressive, pick-focused playstyle. Build the rest around lethality and cooldowns so her burst combo comes back fast. Managing the map elements is what actually makes it all click.

Build Voltaic Cyclosword into Bastionbreaker and lean into the one-combo burst she is built for. You can lose lane and still take over once the items come online. Bastionbreaker comes online at about the 16-minute mark, and her full rotation starts deleting a carry before they can react. Rush that item, because her whole game is landing one clean kill and snowballing it.

Qiyana Skill Order

Second and third ranks of Elemental Wrath land at 4 and 5, a fourth at 7, and that is where the element-charged swing starts doing real damage. Audacity stays at one point all the way to level 14.

Qiyana Abilities

Royal Privilege front-loads every trade, adding bonus damage to Qiyana's first hit on each enemy, which is a big part of why her openers feel so punishing. Audacity is the tool that closes the gap, a straight dash onto an enemy that both starts the combo and repositions her mid-fight.

Qiyana Matchups

Qiyana wants immobile carries she can flank and delete before they react, so squishy, low-escape targets are ideal for her. She struggles against tanky, crowd-control-heavy teams that survive her burst and lock her down, and against enemies who deny her the brush and terrain her element swaps depend on.

Tanks and point-and-click crowd control like Zac, Wukong, and Bel'Veth can shrug off her burst or lock her out of the combo, so pick your moment and do not force it. When she catches a squishy alone, the elemental combo ends them instantly. She hunts down Fiddlesticks, Lillia, and Rek'Sai who cannot survive her opener, so track those lanes and go find the kill.
