Swain Mid build guide: runes, items and skill order
This Swain Mid build covers League of Legends patch 16.20. Compare the selected runes, starting items and core purchases before the match, then adapt your later purchases to enemy damage and defenses. The source recommendations use the Master filter across all servers.
For Swain runes, this setup uses Conqueror with Resolve as the secondary path. Check the highlighted stat shards as well: they are part of the rune page, not extra items. Hover or tap a rune to read its effect before deciding whether it suits your matchup.
The displayed Swain skill order starts with Q and prioritizes Q → W → E. The level-by-level grid covers the first 15 levels supplied by the source. Follow that sequence as a reference while accounting for what your lane or team needs. Item win rates describe completed purchases and should be read alongside their game counts.
Which items should you build on Swain Mid?
The most popular core items in this Swain Mid build are Blackfire Torch → Rylai's Crystal Scepter → Zhonya's Hourglass. Check starting items and boots separately, then compare later item options against the enemy team. This is a reference for patch 26.20, not a fixed purchase order for every match.
Which runes should you choose for Swain Mid?
For the selected Master rank filter, the rune page uses Conqueror with Resolve. Review each rune tooltip and the selected stat shards before entering champion select.
How do you compare Swain builds by rank?
Use the rank selector to view a separate build and win rate for Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Emerald, Diamond, Master, Grandmaster or Challenger. Keep the same role when comparing. A small sample is less reliable, and a higher win rate alone does not prove a better build.
How this build works
Core purchases
The most popular core combination in the source is Blackfire Torch → Rylai's Crystal Scepter → Zhonya's Hourglass. Treat it as a starting point: choose defensive or penetration options for the opponents you are facing.
Read the sample
The core combination has an observed win rate of 59.26% across 54 games. These are games that reached this purchase combination, not all games played by the champion. A completed build can appear stronger because winning players can afford more items.

Read the guideAbout Swain
Jericho Swain is the visionary ruler of Noxus, an expansionist nation that reveres only strength. Though he was cast down and crippled in the Ionian wars, his left arm severed, he seized control of the empire with ruthless determination… and a new, demonic hand. Now, Swain commands from the front lines, marching against a coming darkness that only he can see—in glimpses gathered by shadowy ravens from the corpses all around him. In a swirl of sacrifice and secrets, the greatest secret of all is that the true enemy lies within.
