Core Items

Manamune

Build

Manamune is essential on Corki as an AD caster, allowing him to use his kit more often without worrying about mana drain - especially once it becomes Muramana

Luden's Tempest is a common midlane item for burst damage, and also works well on Corki.

Other good items include Ravenous Hydra and Shadowflame.

Starting Item & Boots

Corrupting Potion

500 Gold

Sorcerer's Shoes

1100 Gold

Skill Order

While your choices may differ according to how the game progresses, the typical Corki skill priority is:

R > Q > E > W

Summoner Spells

These are the summoner spells most typically taken by Corki in this role. Naturally, this may change depending on match-ups.

Gameplay

Corki is a solid choice in the midlane, with good range and burst damage. While he has a great escape tool, be careful not to get locked down by an incoming gank or CC! 

  • Level 1 - Take Q - Phosphorus Bomb, for the wave clear and poke potential early on.
  • Level 2 - Take E - Gatling Gun, so you can farm minions more quickly.
  • First Back - Start building towards Manamune with a Tear of the Goddess, for mana sustain.

Tips & Tricks

  • Make the most of Phosphorus Bomb to poke the enemy midlaner often.
  • As it also grants vision, you can use Phosphorus Bomb to check the bushes for hidden champions.
  • You can use The Package from afar, so use it to surprise your opponents.
  • While Gatling Gun looks strange, it reduces armor as well as dealing damage. Use it in teamfights to aid your team's damage output.
  • Missile Barrage is a great poke tool, so don't hesitate to use it to zone your enemy in lane. 
  • Remember, that every third missile deals extra damage. 
  • Valkyrie is a channeled spell, and can be interrupted.
