Tier S Strategy Guide

How to Pilot Conqueror Ambessa & Mordekaiser to Top 4 in Patch 14.23

The Conqueror Ambessa & Mordekaiser build is a Tier S composition with a #4.05 average placement and 61.4% Top 4 rate. Achieving maximum value requires strict economy discipline, scouting for contested units, and adapting your secondary carries based on item drops.

Economy & Leveling Tempo

For Fast 8 playstyles, preserve gold in Stage 2 with win or loss streaks. Push levels according to the standard curve (Level 6 at 3-2, Level 8 at 4-2) and never roll down below 30 gold unless facing elimination.

Contested Board Pivots

If 2 or more opponents are holding copies of your core units, push level 8 early on Stage 4-1 to secure the remaining copies before the champion pool empties, or flex into complementary synergies.

Key Strategic Takeaways

  • Commit to this composition when opening with strong Darius / Draven pairs and AD/AP components.
  • Primary carry itemization must be completed on Ambessa before slamming secondary utility items.
  • Frontline bulk on Mordekaiser is essential to buy enough time for backline spell casts.
  • Position carries in protected hexes to avoid direct assassin pathing and AoE crowd control spells.
