Tips
- Aim for the Head is recommended for a build that stacks critical strike chance.4
- Caitlyn may be worth taking when playing around bushes to build her passive and land a large hit on a squishy champion.5
- Smolder is a possible choice for a plan involving Sword of the Divine and Jeweled Gauntlet.5
Interactions
- Tristana, Sivir's Q, and Talon's melee Q scale with critical strike damage. Twisted Fate's W may also scale with it.6
- Aim for the Head nullifies the global conversion of excess critical strike chance into adaptive force. Its 50% critical strike chance cap also prevents Sword of the Divine's Excoriate from granting more than 25% bonus critical damage.7 Patch unknown
- Ashe's attacks benefit from critical strike chance and critical damage, though critical strikes only increase her slow.8
- Lucian's ultimate scales with critical strike chance and critical damage, including the number of shots fired.9
- The critical strike chance cap halves the bonus expected from Sword of the Divine.10
- Yasuo received only half of the expected amount.11
