To start off, don't play this if you love yourself. It'll most likely ruin your league start. The basic idea is simple. Self ignite with double Mokou's + Unleash FR, which gives you a 1 - 0.5\ chance to ignite yourself, i.e. you'll whiff with a probability of 6%. I will conveniently ignore this fact. With Lethe Shade, Ignites last 8 seconds, so it's basically a steriod that we have to cast once every 8 seconds. To make this kinda worthwhile we need/get a few extra things: 1. Unaffected by ignite. While we hit ourselves only for 10% (40%) of max life per FR cast, everything else also ignit
