What Not to Pair with Blade Waltz

Bad augment synergies and pairings to avoid

Avoid

Avoid Blade Waltz + Flashy

Avoid this pairing because Flashy forces Flash into your summoner spell slot, but Blade Waltz already replaces one of your summoner spells. This creates a conflict where you may be forced to replace your other summoner spell, reducing flexibility. Additionally, Blade Waltz already provides multiple blinks making Flash redundant for mobility purposes.

Avoid Blade Waltz + Slow and Steady

Avoid this pairing because Slow and Steady removes all attack speed scaling benefits, yet Blade Waltz applies on-hit effects at 50% effectiveness during its blink sequence. Since you cannot attack while Blade Waltz is active and attack speed bonuses are nullified, the on-hit application from Blade Waltz loses significant value.

Avoid Blade Waltz + Draw Your Sword

Avoid this pairing because Draw Your Sword forces you to become melee with 200 attack range, but Blade Waltz requires you to blink to enemy champions and leaves you untargetable and unable to act during its duration. The melee conversion and attack speed bonuses from Draw Your Sword cannot be utilized during Blade Waltz's active time.

Avoid Blade Waltz + Scopier Weapons

Avoid this pairing because Scopier Weapons grants 200 bonus attack range, encouraging kiting and fighting from a distance. However, Blade Waltz forces you to blink directly into melee range of enemy champions repeatedly. The extended attack range becomes largely wasted since Blade Waltz's playstyle requires being in the middle of the enemy team.
