Symphony of War ARAM Mayhem Augment Guide

War Symphony: Your attacks and abilities stack 'War Song' for the entire team, triggering massive stat bonuses when maxed. A T0 support rune for team-oriented champions.

War Symphony: Core effect: Each basic attack or skill hit on an enemy applies 1 layer of battle song to all allies within 800 range. Base bonus: Each layer provides 2% attack damage and 1.5% AP, max 10 stacks. Ultimate effect: At 10 stacks, trigger "War Symphony", granting the entire team 25% damage, 15% movement speed, and 10% cooldown reduction for 8 seconds. Cooldown: 60 seconds after triggering. Stacking rule: Allies' attacks also stack battle song layers for the team.

Symphony of War + Deft: Symphony of War grants both Conqueror and Lethal Tempo keystones simultaneously. Deft provides 60% bonus attack speed, which directly accelerates Lethal Tempo's stacking and amplifies Conqueror's adaptive force conversion through more frequent attacks. This combination transforms any champion into a sustained damage powerhouse in ARAM's constant teamfights. Symphony of War + Lightning Strikes: Symphony of War provides dual keystones for sustained combat. Lightning Strikes increases all attack speed gains by 20% and grants bonus on-hit damage at 1.75 attack speed, synergizing perfectly with Lethal Tempo's stacking mechanic. The amplified attack speed accelerates Conqueror stacking while the on-hit damage complements extended trades. Symphony of War + Goredrink: Symphony of War grants Conqueror and Lethal Tempo for extended combat. Goredrink provides 15% omnivamp, which pairs exceptionally well with Conqueror's healing on stacked attacks. The combination creates a self-sustaining fighter that heals significantly during prolonged ARAM teamfights while maintaining high damage output through both keystones. Symphony of War + Gash: Symphony of War provides Conqueror and Lethal Tempo keystones. Gash adds 50% bonus attack speed and on-hit true damage scaling with armor, accelerating Lethal Tempo stacks while adding true damage to every attack. The attack speed from both augments stacks multiplicatively, creating devastating sustained damage output.

Avoid Symphony of War + Slow and Steady: Symphony of War grants Lethal Tempo which provides massive bonus attack speed on stacking, but Slow and Steady completely nullifies all attack speed bonuses by setting base attack speed to a static value. This hard mechanical conflict wastes the primary value of one of the two keystone runes you paid for. Avoid Symphony of War + Back to Basics: Back to Basics permanently seals your ultimate ability, which severely limits champion options. While Symphony of War provides strong basic-attack keystones, the ultimate restriction is a massive drawback that conflicts with many champions' play patterns and reduces overall build flexibility. Avoid Symphony of War + Purist - Caster: Purist - Caster converts all bonus attack speed into ability haste, which directly anti-synergizes with Lethal Tempo's stacking attack speed mechanic. You lose the keystone's primary benefit while gaining a stat conversion that provides diminishing returns on a rune designed for auto-attackers. Avoid Symphony of War + ADAPt: ADAPt converts all bonus attack damage into ability power, which conflicts with Conqueror's adaptive force stacking that rewards sustained physical damage dealers. This conversion shifts your build toward AP scaling while your keystones are optimized for extended basic-attack trades and AD ratios.

War Symphony: Don't focus only on your own damage, forget stacking layers for teammates Don't trigger symphony when teammates aren't nearby, wastes the team-wide buff Don't force engage while symphony is on cooldown Don't forget teammates can stack layers for you too, no need to fight for damage in teamfights
