Samira Wild Rift Best Build Guide

ADC build for close-range cleanup: Samira does not want to win the fight on the first auto, but at the moment space gets messy and her tempo reset matters more than enemy perfect positioning. The build must therefore serve access, immediate survival, and explosive conversion.

Power vs. the roster

Share of the roster this champion outclasses, at each stage of the game.

Early (lv 1-5)52 %
Mid (lv 6-10)57 %
Late (lv 11-15)64 %
Peaks in the mid game– – roster average
Lv 6 The CollectorLv 9 Infinity Edge + Ultimate rank 2Lv 11 Lord Dominik's Regards

50% = average for the roster at that point of the game, 90% = among the strongest. The three phases come from the site's editorial tempo grid (early/mid/late, rated across 142 champions); the level-by-level curve adds this build's computed spikes — ultimate, completed items — never by more than ±8 points.
