Quick summary
Arli is a mid-tier Farm Marksman who wants to close distance and snowball off picks. Public guides recommend a build starting with Lightfoot Shoes.
Current patch decision guide
When to pick Arli, when to avoid them, and how to adapt your build.
Arli is a balanced Farm Marksman who wants to close distance on a chosen target and stick to them. Public guide data shows a build centered on Lightfoot Shoes, Sparkforged Dagger, Boots of Dexterity, used to farm the safe side, scale into late game, and protect priority targets. Pick her when the draft lets Arli reach the back-line scaling window without being caught out; avoid when the enemy chains crowd control that stops the engage before damage lands.
Pick Arli when
- Your draft can capitalize on early picks and snowball lane leads
- Your team can engage first, letting Arli second-wave into low-health targets
- The enemy draft includes Sima Yi and Zilong, who appear in counter data as matchups Arli can pressure.
Avoid Arli when
- The team needs sustained team-fight damage rather than a single-target diver
- Your team has no primary engage, leaving the cleanup pick with nothing to follow up on
- The enemy team is built around answers to Gap-Close, removing the windows Arli's kit needs to perform.

Build decisions
Attack-speed marksman core
Arli's official build runs an attack-speed marksman path for her Gap-Close and Cleanup kit. Lightfoot Shoes and Boots of Dexterity ramp her movement and attack speed, Sparkforged Dagger adds chain-lightning basic attacks, and Doomsday scales the damage. Daybreaker's Virtue adds the marksman sustain damage so she can clean up after her dash repositions her.
Crit, range & survivability
Eternity Blade adds high crit damage, while Sunchaser and Haste - Sunpool extend her attack range for safer output. Destiny (negates fatal damage) and Sage's Sanctuary (on-the-spot resurrect) are the late insurance items that let Arli commit to a cleanup dive and still recover if focused.
Matchup logic
Versus crowd control
Reliable hard control stops Arli's engage before the combo lands. Bait the most threatening control skill before committing Autumn Storm, and wait for ally engage to absorb peel.
Role positioning
Arli is a Farm pick whose value depends on sustained ranged damage in extended team fights. Stick to the role plan rather than forcing fights her kit is not designed to win.
Synergies
Public synergy data lists Lian Po and Kaizer as strong partners for Arli. Plan engages around Lian Po's setup window, then second-engage with Autumn Storm.
Common mistakes
- Engaging without follow-up — gap-close gets you to the target, but a solo dive without ally damage trades 1-for-1.
- Engaging first instead of second — cleanup picks lose their value as primary engagers.
- Engaging without checking enemy summoner-spell cooldowns, which often decide whether Arli's commit reaches the target alive.
- Auto-attacking through enemy dive instead of repositioning — losing the marksman in early fights collapses the late-game win condition.
