Executioner's Calling: Wait for enemies below 50% health before joining team fights Prioritize low health targets: execute for quick kills Use reset mechanic: kill to reset cooldowns for more executions Build anti-heal items: reduce enemy healing to keep them low Don't initiate: wait for team to reduce enemy health first

Gash + Scopiest Weapons: Gash grants 50% bonus attack speed and on-hit true damage scaling with bonus armor. Scopiest Weapons provides 250 bonus attack range, enabling safe, rapid basic attacks from a distance. This combination allows champions to consistently apply Gash's true damage while staying out of danger, maximizing the value of the attack speed and on-hit effect in extended teamfights. Gash + Dual Wield: Gash provides 50% bonus attack speed and on-hit true damage. Dual Wield causes basic attacks to launch an additional bolt that applies on-hit effects at 40% effectiveness and increases total attack speed by 25%. This doubles the frequency of Gash's true damage procs, significantly amplifying sustained damage output during extended engagements. Gash + Twice Thrice: Gash grants on-hit true damage and 50% bonus attack speed. Twice Thrice causes every third basic attack to apply on-hit effects again at 150% effectiveness. This synergy creates a burst pattern where Gash's true damage is amplified by 150%, rewarding consistent auto-attacking with powerful spikes of damage. Gash + Tap Dancer: Gash provides 50% bonus attack speed and on-hit true damage. Tap Dancer grants bonus attack speed equal to 10% of total movement speed and builds infinite movement speed stacks on-hit. The combined attack speed bonuses multiply each other, enabling rapid true damage application while maintaining high mobility for repositioning.

Avoid Gash + Slow and Steady: Avoid this pairing because Slow and Steady completely nullifies Gash's 50% bonus attack speed benefit by setting base attack speed to a static value and preventing all attack speed bonuses from functioning. This mechanical conflict wastes a primary component of Gash, leaving only the on-hit true damage which scales with armor rather than the converted attack damage. Avoid Gash + ADAPt: This pairing has poor synergy because ADAPt converts all bonus attack damage into ability power, yet Gash's true damage on-hit scales specifically with bonus armor rather than AP or AD. The attack speed from Gash benefits auto-attackers who typically build AD, creating a stat mismatch where the conversion undermines the intended playstyle. Avoid Gash + Back to Basics: Back to Basics seals your ultimate ability permanently, which severely limits champion effectiveness for most auto-attackers who would want Gash's attack speed and on-hit true damage. The ability power and ability haste stats from Back to Basics offer minimal value for an auto-attack focused build that Gash promotes. Avoid Gash + Deft: Deft provides 60% bonus attack speed, which heavily overlaps with Gash's 50% bonus attack speed. This redundancy wastes an augment slot on stats you already have, and neither augment addresses survivability or other scaling dimensions that would complement an on-hit damage build.

Cut Down: Don't give it to pure supports, as their low damage makes the additional effect negligible. Don't initiate teamfights Cut Down is ineffective against high-health targets and you'll be bursted. Don't ignore the damage cap additional damage to high-health targets caps at 400. Don't forget the reset synergy killing an enemy resets the cooldown, allowing for continued picks. Watch cooldown duration each target can only be hit once every 3 seconds, don't continuously attack the same target.
