ARAM Build Guide
Sivir ARAM Build — Waveclear Queen and Teamfight Carry
Sivir in ARAM is a waveclear machine with teamfight-winning utility. Her Q and W clear waves instantly, her E blocks key abilities, and her R speeds up your entire team for engages. Here's how to dominate.
Sivir in ARAM is one of the safest ADCs in the game. Her Q (Boomerang Blade) clears the entire wave from max range. Her W (Ricochet) bounces to all 5 enemies in teamfights. Her E (Spell Shield) blocks one ability, which can negate game-changing ults. And her R (On The Hunt) gives your entire team a massive speed boost for engages or escapes.
Her win rate in ARAM sits around 51-52%. She's not flashy, but she's consistent. The narrow bridge means her Q and W hit multiple targets every time, and constant teamfights mean her R is always valuable.
Best Sivir ARAM Runes
Primary: Precision
Lethal Tempo — Sivir scales with attack speed. Lethal Tempo gives you extended range and massive attack speed in fights, letting you shred entire teams with W bounces.
Presence of Mind — Sivir is mana-hungry. Presence of Mind restores mana on takedowns, keeping you casting through extended fights.
Legend: Bloodline — Lifesteal keeps you alive in teamfights. Sivir has no mobility, so sustain is crucial.
Coup de Grace — Extra damage to low-HP targets. Your W bounces execute low-HP enemies.
Secondary: Sorcery
Manaflow Band — More mana for Q spam. Sivir burns through mana fast.
Gathering Storm — Free AD over time. ARAM games go long, so Gathering Storm gives you scaling.
Why not Fleet Footwork? Fleet is fine for sustain, but Lethal Tempo scales harder in ARAM. The extended range and attack speed let you shred entire teams with W bounces. Fleet is better for laning, but ARAM is all teamfights.
Best Sivir ARAM Items
Core Build (in order)
Essence Reaver — Sivir is mana-hungry. Essence Reaver gives you mana on-hit, crit, and ability haste. This solves your mana problems and gives you damage.
Berserker's Greaves — Attack speed boots. More autos = more W bounces.
Infinity Edge — Your W bounces can crit. IE makes those crits hit 40% harder. This is your biggest power spike.
Phantom Dancer — Attack speed, crit, and movement speed. The movement speed helps you kite and dodge skillshots.
Situational 5th & 6th Items
Lord Dominik's Regards — If they have 2+ tanks stacking armor. You'll need this most games.
Bloodthirster — If you need more lifesteal and a shield. The shield helps you survive burst.
Guardian Angel — If you're the only carry. Revive, keep shredding.
Mortal Reminder — If they have heavy healing. The Grievous Wounds applies on your W bounces.
Don't skip Essence Reaver. Essence Reaver is mandatory on Sivir in ARAM. Without it, you'll run out of mana in every fight. The mana-on-hit passive keeps you casting Q and W nonstop.
Ability Order
Max Q first (Boomerang Blade), then W (Ricochet), then E (Spell Shield). Take R at 6, 11, 16.
Q is your primary poke and waveclear. In ARAM, Q hits the entire wave and bounces back through enemies.
W second for the teamfight damage. W bounces to all nearby enemies, so in grouped teamfights it's your highest DPS ability.
E is one point wonder. The spell shield blocks one ability regardless of rank.
ARAM-Specific Tips
Your E blocks one ability and restores mana. In ARAM, save Spell Shield for key abilities. Block Malphite ult, Ashe arrow, Morgana Q, or any game-changing CC. When you block an ability, you get mana back, which helps sustain.
Your R speeds up your entire team. Use On The Hunt to engage or disengage. If your team wants to dive, R and everyone runs in faster. If your team needs to escape, R and everyone runs away faster. It's a teamfight-winning ability.
Q waveclear: Sivir's Q clears the entire wave from max range. Use Q on cooldown to keep the wave pushed. This gives your team map control and denies the enemy CS.
W in teamfights: Sivir's W bounces to nearby enemies. In ARAM teamfights where everyone is grouped, W hits all 5 enemies. Activate W, auto-attack, and watch health bars disappear.
Positioning: Sivir has 500 range. You're shorter range than most ADCs. Stay behind your team, auto the closest target, and use E to block key abilities. If you're in front of your team, you're dead.
When Sivir is Strong vs Weak in ARAM
Sivir dominates against grouped comps and waveclear-dependent teams. If the enemy can't match your waveclear, you'll control the entire game. She's also great against ability-reliant comps — your E blocks their key abilities.
She struggles against long-range poke comps (Xerath, Ziggs, Lux) who outrange you and poke you down. She's also weak against hard-dive assassins (Zed, Talon, Fizz) who can dive past your team and one-shot you.
She's weakest in the first 10 minutes before Essence Reaver and IE. Once you have both items, you're a monster. Once you have Phantom Dancer, you're unkillable because you can kite forever.
