Back to Team CompsDazzle your opponents by swarming your board with Faerie units. This comp focuses around carrying Kalista and Rakan.
Final Board Setup
Vertical Faeries is extremely strong right now and there are multiple ways to play (Reroll on 7 or Fast 9) and multiple ways to win the game. Katarina is very strong in the early stages of the game and can even carry you throughout Stage 4. 2 Faerie Emblems, although rare, is an extremely strong win condition and will guarantee a top 1 spot.

Early Game
Usually, the best opener for Vertical Faerie is the Royal Guard augment or a Faerie Emblem, usually obtained through Stage 2 augment or portal. Itemize whoever you upgrade first and prioritize Guinsoos. 4 Faerie is almost a must play in Stages 2 and 3 as your team will get a ridiculous amount of HP.

Mid Game
Collect Faerie units in your natural shops. On Stage 4-2, level to 8 and roll down for upgraded Faeries and at least 1 Kalista and 1 Rakan. Your goal is to activate 6 Faerie as soon as possible so you can get Queen Guard’s Armor for your frontline – this will stabilize you until Stage 5.
It is pretty important to activate 3 Multistrikers because you want Kalista to stack the Queen item as soon as possible for the damage amp

Late Game
Push to level 9 as soon as possible, usually after you have upgraded both Rakan and Kalista. Your win condition will almost always be Milio 2* with mana items. Transitioning to the Preserver board with Morgana can be expensive, but is definitely the highest capped variation.
Preserver’s is very strong late game because naturally, Faerie units have high HP from the trait and Preserver’s will heal up % max HP. It will also help Milio generate mana to give your units items.
