Giant Slayer ARAM Mayhem Augment Guide

Giant Slayer: Deals increased damage based on smaller champion size, especially effective against large tanks, the core Rune for shrink-focused champions.

Giantslayer: Core effect: Deal extra percentage damage based on the size difference between you and the target. Base bonus: +5% damage for every 10% smaller than the target. Max bonus: Up to +30% extra damage. Calculation: Based on current size percentages of both parties. Applies to all damage: Basic attacks, abilities, items, and Runes.

Giant Slayer: All basic attack damage All active skill damage Equipment skill damage Damage from runes True damage

Giant Slayer: Healing/Shields, Tower/minion attacks, Reflect damage, Summoner spell damage

Giantslayer: Size Differential Calculation: Based on 100% size, the smaller you are and the larger the target, the greater the difference Works on Epic Monsters: Deals extra damage to Baron, Dragon, and other large monsters Multiplies with other damage increases Perfect Synergy with Miniaturizer: Miniaturizer stacks reduce your size, significantly increasing Giantslayer damage

Giantslayer: Champions carrying Mini-Engine Naturally smaller champions (like Teemo, Annie) Skill-based champions Champions weak against tanks

Champions who carry Giant Slayer Champions with large base models (like Tryndamere, Ornn) Pure tank champions Champions who rely on size for damage

Titan's Resolve: Prioritize Miniaturize Engine stacks: smaller size increases Titan's damage. Focus on frontline tanks in teamfights: highest damage against large targets. Avoid items that increase size. Combine with percentage damage abilities: tank-killing power becomes transformative.

Giant Slayer + Goliath: Giant Slayer reduces your size by 75% while Goliath grants 50% increased size, partially offsetting the visual reduction while still qualifying you for the bonus damage against larger targets. The 35% bonus health and 15% adaptive force from Goliath make you deceptively tanky despite appearing tiny, and the movement speed from both augments stacks for exceptional kiting ability in ARAM's narrow lane. Giant Slayer + Don't Blink: Giant Slayer grants 20% bonus movement speed, which directly amplifies Don't Blink's damage formula that scales with your movement speed advantage over targets. The tiny model makes you harder to click while you rapidly reposition, and every point of speed differential translates to increased damage output against all enemies regardless of their size. Giant Slayer + Tap Dancer: Tap Dancer grants bonus attack speed equal to 10% of total movement speed, which Giant Slayer's 20% bonus movement speed directly enhances. Basic attacks stack infinite movement speed bonuses, creating a snowballing synergy where increased speed grants both more attack speed and harder-to-target gameplay, perfect for sustained damage dealers in constant ARAM teamfights. Giant Slayer + Shrink Engine: Shrink Engine reduces your size by up to 80% while granting ability haste and movement speed per takedown, stacking with Giant Slayer's 75% size reduction and 20% movement speed. The combined size reduction makes you nearly unclickable, while the stacking movement speed and ability haste create an elusive playstyle that excels in extended ARAM skirmishes.

Avoid Giant Slayer + Goliath: Giant Slayer reduces your size by 75% to maximize bonus damage against larger targets, while Goliath increases your size by 50% and grants bonus health. These effects directly conflict—Goliath makes you larger, reducing or eliminating the size advantage needed for Giant Slayer's bonus damage to trigger against enemies. Avoid Giant Slayer + Tank Engine: Tank Engine increases your size by 5% per takedown, stacking infinitely. As you accumulate stacks, you become larger, which directly undermines Giant Slayer's core mechanic of dealing bonus damage based on being smaller than your target. The more successful you are, the weaker Giant Slayer becomes. Avoid Giant Slayer + Growth Spurt: Growth Spurt grants 50% increased size for 7 seconds when activated. While temporary, this directly counteracts Giant Slayer's size reduction during key engagements, potentially removing your bonus damage window when you need it most. The size increase works against the tiny status Giant Slayer provides. Avoid Giant Slayer + Minionmancer: Minionmancer grants your pets 40% bonus size. While this affects pets rather than your champion directly, the thematic and strategic focus on larger entities conflicts with Giant Slayer's design around being tiny. The augments pursue opposite size philosophies with no mechanical synergy between them.

Giantslayer: Don't build items that increase size: Drastically reduces Giantslayer damage. Don't ignore effect on monsters: Deals extra damage on Baron and Dragon. Don't take without size reduction runes: Value is very low when at normal size. Watch enemy size changes: Your damage temporarily increases when enemies use size-increasing skills.
