[25.24] Miss Fortune Guide (haha accelerated MF go brr build + new axiom arc build)
Build Summary
Accelerated MF Build
Triple Tonic is a viable alternative due to recent buffs to it and because of biscuit nerfs.
Riot, bring back long sword start please!!!
Don't upgrade boots unless you have feats of warfare or spare gold.
Cheap and accessible components unlike B.F. Sword and Pickaxe... Stronger early game powerspikes than the alternatives.
See "Core Item Explanation" Section
Hubris if enough gold. See "Core Item Explanation" for more details.
Edge of Night good alternative to Youmuu's. Feel free to build any of these items last.
Cleanse instead of barrier if against heavy CC comps. Effective against Shaco & Yuumi supports due to them often taking ignite + exhaust.
E 3rd if strong sided or opportunity arises
25.23 MF Ult Buff Build
Triple Tonic is a viable alternative due to recent buffs to it and because of biscuit nerfs.
Axiom arc components
See bottom of "Core Item Explanation" Section
Bloodthirster is the go-to last item. Shieldbow preferred if you want 100% crit.
Cleanse instead of barrier if against heavy CC comps. Effective against Shaco & Yuumi supports due to them often taking ignite + exhaust.
E 3rd if strong sided or opportunity arises
Why Lethality MF?
If you're going to pick crit MF, go play another champ bro. Let's play MF for her unique build that others cannot utilize! Duskblade of Draktharr
Why This Specific Build?
This is an accelerated build! You get stronger faster than any other build because of your increased gold-income!
First Strike + Cash-Back + Cheap af items w/ good components Long Sword Long Sword Long Sword = rich and strong throughout the whole game
Disclaimer: This build is by no means the most optimal build. It's just one of the best builds for MF I want to showcase in this guide.
Core Item Explanation
Umbral Glaive Umbral Glaive: Cheap item, gives AD + lethality + ability haste (don't sleep on ability haste on MF!) + clearing wards gives you more money & gives you opportunities to make more money (enemies have less vision means they make worse plays on average that your team can capitalize on)
Opportunity Opportunity: Extremely cheap, gold-efficient, lethality item
Youmuu's Ghostblade Youmuu's Ghostblade: Good stats, movement speed is nice, argument to skip upgrading boots (meaning you save more money!)
Serylda's Grudge Serylda's Grudge: Normally you get armor penetration items 3rd, but with your accelerated build, get it 4th unless you're hard losing.
Hubris Hubris: Good alternative to Umbral Glaive start. It costs 500 more gold than Umbral Glaive but from my experience, the extra AD you get from Hubris passive makes up for it sometimes.
If you have enough gold to buy it immediately, then you can buy it over Umbral Glaive (they both share the same components which allows you to pivot builds easily)!
Edge of Night Edge of Night: Really good item against long-range CC. Can replace your 2nd/3rd item.
Some Common Examples:
Nautilus Dredge Line Depth Charge Nautilus Q & Ult
Qiyana Supreme Display of Talent Qiyana Ult
Ambessa Public Execution Ambessa Ult
Blitzcrank Blitzcrank Q
Malphite Malphite Ult
25.23+ MF New Alternative Build
Axiom Arc Axiom Arc: New build recently came out worth trying to see if it fits your playstyle. MF's ult got buffed in 25.23 so pros like Doublelift have been playing this build to best utilize the buffs!
Tips & Tricks
Love Tap Passive (Love Tap) Tricks
‣ While taking turrets, do this:
W Strut -> AA Love Tap turret -> Q Double Up minion -> AA Love Tap turret -> Q Double Up bounced to minion -> AA Love Tap turret
‣‣ By doing this, you can potentially proc your passive Love Tap on the turret 3 times in a row for much more damage and you also reduce your W Strut cooldown up to 5 times!
‣‣ Best done when minions are just arriving because minion waves have natural gaps between them while they walk in a line which allows you to AA in between the Q bouncing.
‣‣ Note: This is not consistent from my knowledge due to factors like attack speed, ping, minion position, etc. But that shouldn't stop you from trying it because even if you don't get triple passive proc, you still get the benefits regardless! Always hit minions and tower at the same time!!
Double Up Q (Double-Up) Tricks
‣ Q bounces work on enemies that aren't in your vision.
‣‣ You can use bouncing Q's on minions to check if they are in the bush or to poke people who think they are safe from bouncing Q's.
‣ When you are pushed up to enemy tower, try Q Double Up bouncing on the incoming enemy wave as they walk to you while the enemy ADC is farming under tower.
‣‣ They never expect it, but note that it may be pretty hard to do due to the minions moving.
‣‣ Sometimes Q RNG sucks and hits another random minion instead...
‣ Don't focus on always crit bouncing Q's.
‣ Don't ruin your wave state just to bounce a Q off a minion.
Example of bouncing Q off of arriving minionsStrut W (Strut) Tricks
‣ Utilize MF's innate movement speed from W Strut to greed recalls and push your tempo on the map.
‣ Roam mid.
‣‣ Use your W movement speed and the surprise factor that ADCs don't typically roam.
‣‣ If your wave is cooked and you aren't level 6 yet, just roam mid.
‣‣ You can pressure your opponents into to breaking their freeze to try and punish you for the roam, but they don't know you have the movement speed to not lose much from roaming.
‣ While doing neutral objectives, hit plants / wards / scuttle crabs in between your AAs on the objective.
‣‣ You reduce W CD which allows you to get more DPS on the objective.
Make It Rain E (Make It Rain) Tricks
‣ This spell is primarily used to get me free assists LMAO, just drop E on someone who's about to die from your teammates and you get some free gold.
‣ Use E on invisible enemies to expose their position (does not fully reveal them).
‣‣ Examples include: Akali W Twilight Shroud, Akshan W Going Rogue, Shaco Q Deceive, Teemo Passive Guerrilla Warfare, and many many more!
‣ If enemy is setting up a neutral objective but not starting it, you can press E on the objective to (1) get vision on the objective and (2) to have the objective start attacking the enemy for some free damage! Dragon's Descent
Bullet Time R (Bullet Time) Tricks
‣ No CC on your team to set up your ult? Use your teammates' bodies as CC.
‣‣ Especially when versus melees, you can just press E Make It Rain + R Bullet Time on top of your teammates when they are being engaged on.
‣‣ If they want to hit your teammate, they are stuck in their own animations fighting your teammate while you delete their HP bars.
‣ When you are about to be dove, E Make It Rain + R Bullet Time the incoming wave early from behind your tower.
‣‣ Enemies tend to panic because they don't anticipate you doing so and I've had many cases of Master+ players still forcing the dive!
‣‣ You can easily kill one, two, three, or even four people like this! Worst case, you trade kill, but it is what it is when you are weaksided.
‣ In very rare scenarios, you can ult Bullet Time the next incoming minion wave in laning phase. Sounds troll, but trust me, there are times to do it such as:
‣‣ Ex: ADC and support moved to grubs for some reason and all 5 of the enemies are there. Ult incoming wave, especially if cannon wave and it will allow you to punish them faster (hit tower, getting plates, tempo recall after, etc.)
‣‣ Ex: Wave is in an extremely bad state and your support is Soraka Soraka or similar no CC support and no help from jungle. Try not to do this, but I've had to do this a couple times in the last few hundred games.
‣‣ Basically, any time you know you aren't going to use ult in the next 2 minutes and you're likely recalling after ulting, might as well use it! Good for pushing tempo too!
Miss Fortune General MF Tips
‣ MF has really bad mana problems even with manaflow band . Here are the two reasons why:
‣‣ From my experience, many MF players use Q Double Up too often to clear waves.
‣‣‣ Take your time and push waves with just W Strut.
‣‣‣ There's times to use Q Double Up to help clear waves, but just be cognisant about overusing mana.
‣‣ Many MF players use E Make It Rain too often. It costs a lot of mana Tear of the Goddess and does practically nothing in most scenarios.
‣‣‣ Only when I have blue buff, I spam it off cooldown when I see an enemy if I know nothing major will happen in the next few seconds. Free money from first strike !
‣ Remember, you have like 0 damage early after your initial burst of damage.
‣‣ Even if enemy is low HP with barrier up, if you fight someone like Yunara Yunara or Kai'Sa Kai'Sa, you can still lose if you already used your initial burst of damage.
‣‣ I've lost many fights for over-trading and not respecting their ramping damage.
‣ With this build specifically, do not care about proccing first strike .
‣‣ Your priority in the game is fundamentals; first strike is a side quest.
‣‣ The rune will reward you naturally if you play normally well.

I posted this guide because I saw OneTricks.GG come out with this guides feature and this is a website that I've used for many months now. Thought I'd pitch in my 2 cents with a build that I've played hundreds of games on.
Just know that I'm just some random MF one-trick who's 245lp Masters peak as the time of writing this. I hit Masters for the first time like a month or two ago after recently deciding I don't want to rank sit in low diamond for the rest of my life. I'm no Challenger player, I just play the game for fun and I want this build to bring you some variety to your MF gameplay.
Hopefully this build works well for you and gets you free LP! Miss Fortune
