Talk:Ahri/@comment-26808509-20180116075946

I wanted to make use of the Waterwalking Rune (it's rarely played and only very situational), so I tried to build around roaming and Ahri was the first midlaner that came to my mind who could work well with it. So I went with Arcane Comet, Ultimate Hat, Celerity and Waterwalking, the secondary tree of course is situational but domination with Relentless Hunter has a natural synergy. To maximize the effectiveness I bought Rylais even before I finished Morello.

It worked well, but the reason I mention that is that I never realitzed the synergy Ahri is having with Celerity. Even on early levels and without boots, you gain about 18 AP from this rune while your Q is traveling, making it essentially buffing itself. With boots and Ludens this value is even higher and if paired with Waterwalking the Q damage grows insane. Especially because 35% of this converts into true damage. The numbers don't seem very high, but it actually adds up and is definitly worth in games where you don't feel like you can safely dominate your lane with Electrocute and want to concentrade on roaming.
