Infinite Recursion ARAM Mayhem Augment Guide

Infinite Recursion: Significantly reduces all ability cooldowns after participating in takedowns, allowing infinite ability usage in teamfights, the core Rune for teamfight machines.

Infinite Cycles: Core effect: After participating in a takedown of an enemy champion, reduce all ability cooldowns by 70%. Includes ultimate and basic abilities. Assist also triggers but with half the cooldown reduction (35%). Cooldown: No cooldown, triggers on every takedown. Multiplies with other cooldown reduction effects.

Infinite Loop: Killing enemy champions Assisting enemy champions Participating in killing heroes controlled by pets Participating in killing all enemy heroes in clone mode

Infinite Loop: Killing minions, monsters, towers, Killing allied heroes, Enemy hero suicides, Unassisted kills

Infinite CDR: Reduces current remaining cooldown time, not total cooldown time. Can stack with other CDR effects. Applies to all abilities, including active item abilities. When getting multi-kills, each kill triggers the effect once.

Infinite Cycle: Teamfight carry champions (like Katarina, Samira, Master Yi) Champions with long ability cooldowns Champions with large area AOE Ability-dependent damage dealers

Infinite Loop: Pure tank champions Pure support champions Champions with already short ability cooldowns Attack damage reliant champions

Infinite Cycles: Prioritize killing an enemy in teamfights: trigger cooldown reduction, then spam abilities to clean up Try to participate in as many kills as possible: each kill reduces ability CDs Pair with high-damage abilities: maximize cooldown reduction benefit Don't waste cooldown reduction: immediately use abilities after kills

Infinite Recursion + Executioner: Infinite Recursion provides scaling ability haste that grows with each takedown, while Executioner resets all basic ability cooldowns on champion kills. Together, they create a snowballing caster engine: more takedowns mean more ability haste and more resets, enabling rapid ability recasts during extended fights. Infinite Recursion + Ultimate Awakening: Infinite Recursion grants stacking ability haste per takedown, and Ultimate Awakening resets basic abilities on ultimate cast while granting 300 basic ability haste for 15 seconds. The combination ensures near-permanent ability uptime during ult windows, with takedowns further accelerating cooldowns for sustained spell spam. Infinite Recursion + Apex Inventor: Infinite Recursion provides scaling ability haste for champion abilities, while Apex Inventor grants 100 item haste for 50% item cooldown reduction. Together they maximize both spell and active item uptime, enabling frequent use of items like Zhonya's or Hextech Gunblade alongside rapid ability casts. Infinite Recursion + Get Excited: Infinite Recursion rewards takedowns with permanent ability haste stacks, and Get Excited grants 100% bonus movement speed and 15% attack speed on each takedown. The pairing accelerates both spell casting and repositioning after kills, enabling aggressive pursuit during teamfights while scaling indefinitely.

Avoid Infinite Recursion + Recursion: Avoid this pairing because Recursion grants a flat 60 ability haste, which heavily overlaps with Infinite Recursion's base effect of 60 ability haste. Taking both results in massive stat redundancy. Infinite Recursion already provides strong haste that scales with takedowns, making the additional flat haste from Recursion low-value compared to other augment options. Avoid Infinite Recursion + Bread And Butter: Avoid this pairing because Bread And Butter grants 100 ability haste to only your Q ability, which is heavily redundant with Infinite Recursion's global 60 ability haste. The single-target haste offers diminishing returns when you already have strong global haste. This pairing wastes an augment slot on overcapped cooldown reduction that could be spent on damage or utility. Avoid Infinite Recursion + Back to Basics: Avoid this pairing because Back to Basics seals your ultimate ability permanently, which severely limits your champion's power and playmaking potential. While both augments provide ability haste, the loss of your ultimate is a massive drawback that cannot be compensated by the haste stacking. The anti-synergy makes this combination fundamentally flawed for most champions. Avoid Infinite Recursion + Eureka: Avoid this pairing because Eureka grants ability haste based on 30% of your AP, creating redundancy with Infinite Recursion's flat 60 ability haste. On champions with lower AP builds, Eureka provides minimal value. Even on high AP champions, stacking multiple sources of ability haste has diminishing returns compared to acquiring damage, penetration, or defensive stats.

Infinite Recurrence: Don't ignore assist trigger: assists also reduce cooldown by 35%. Don't forget ultimate also benefits from cooldown reduction. Don't force teamfights without participating in kills: combat power is average without cooldown reduction. Note stacking with Recurrence: can achieve near-infinite skill uptime.
