Growth Spurt + Goliath: Goliath's 35% bonus health directly amplifies Growth Spurt's health-based bonus, granting significantly more temporary HP when activated. The combined size increases create a massive presence in ARAM's narrow lane, making the knockup easier to land on multiple enemies. This turns you into an enormous frontline disruptor with exceptional survivability during the 7-second growth duration. Growth Spurt + Courage of the Colossus: Growth Spurt's knockup triggers Courage of the Colossus, granting a shield based on your maximum health. Since Growth Spurt provides 300 plus 20% max health as bonus HP, the shield becomes substantially larger. This combination rewards engaging directly into enemies, as the knockup setup ensures both defensive layers activate simultaneously for peak teamfight durability. Growth Spurt + Celestial Body: Celestial Body's 1500 bonus health massively amplifies Growth Spurt's scaling component, since the temporary health scales with 20% maximum health. The 10% damage reduction is a fair trade for becoming an unstoppable engage tool with a reliable knockup. In ARAM's constant teamfights, this combination provides overwhelming effective HP for sustained frontline presence. Growth Spurt + Guilty Pleasure: Growth Spurt's knockup counts as immobilizing an enemy, triggering Guilty Pleasure's heal based on your maximum health. Since Growth Spurt grants substantial bonus health during its duration, the heal becomes even more potent. This creates a self-sustaining engage pattern where diving into enemies with the knockup both disrupts them and restores significant health. Growth Spurt + Tank Engine: Tank Engine's stacking maximum health and size on takedown synergizes multiplicatively with Growth Spurt's percentage-based health bonus. As you accumulate stacks, each Growth Spurt activation grants increasingly more temporary health. The growing size also makes landing the knockup on multiple enemies easier, creating a scaling frontline presence that dominates late-game ARAM teamfights.

Avoid Growth Spurt + Giant Slayer: Giant Slayer reduces your size by 75%, directly conflicting with Growth Spurt's core purpose of becoming larger to knock up nearby enemies. The knock-up requires you to be within 400 units, and the 50% size increase from Growth Spurt is largely negated by Giant Slayer's massive size reduction, wasting the augment's engage and disruption potential. Avoid Growth Spurt + Shrink Engine: Shrink Engine reduces your size by 4% per takedown, stacking up to 80% reduction. This directly opposes Growth Spurt's size increase effect. While Growth Spurt makes you larger for the knock-up and health bonus, Shrink Engine systematically makes you smaller throughout the game, creating conflicting scaling that undermines both augments. Avoid Growth Spurt + Scopier Weapons: Scopier Weapons grants 200 bonus attack range for ranged champions, encouraging you to fight from a distance. Growth Spurt requires you to be within 400 units to knock up enemies, forcing you into melee range. These augments promote opposite playstyles, making the range bonus wasted when you need to be close to use Growth Spurt effectively. Avoid Growth Spurt + Scopiest Weapons: Scopiest Weapons grants 250 bonus attack range for ranged champions, heavily incentivizing long-range combat. Growth Spurt's knock-up only hits enemies within 400 units, requiring close proximity. The attack range stat becomes largely irrelevant when you must position inside the knock-up radius to utilize Growth Spurt's primary crowd control effect.

First Strike: Don't give it to split-push champions, as there are no teammates nearby to proc the effect, making it inefficient. Don't ignore teammates' health many players only focus on their own HP and forget to protect allies. Don't force teamfights during cooldown without First Strike, you'll likely be wiped. Don't build too much damage build defensive and healing items to increase survival and healing effectiveness. Watch range limitation teammates beyond 1000 units cannot proc First Strike.
