Build philosophy
Allain benefits from On-hit, Magic attack — match items and runes to kit scaling.
Passive: Basic Attacks and skills grant Fury, which increases his Physical Pierce and Magical Pierce and grants damage reduction. At max Fury, he recovers Health, and the lower his Health, the more he recovers.
Arcana: Prioritize runes that boost On-hit, Magic attack for this hero's passive and skill scaling.
