Janna is a known menace in the Summoner’s Rift realm, however, her power extends far beyond this map. The dominance of this champion is quite apparent in ARAM as well, the mode where she has ranked among the top champions consistently.
To maximize Janna’s potential, today we are gonna take a peek at her greatest ARAM build!
Best Janna ARAM Items
Imperial Mandate
A lot of people are trying full AP builds for Janna in ARAM, however, those people are making a really great mistake. A full AP build on Janna will significantly ruin her effectiveness and consequently, the win rate.
What we should do instead is just run a regular tested support build. To start out our build, it would be wise to build the Imperial Mandate first. The item will give us all the necessary support stats, as well as a passive that will increase our allies’ damage.
Moonstone Renewer
Another fabulous and grand pick for Janna is the Moonstone Renewer. The item will give us all the core and necessary stats such as ability power, ability haste and last but not least, mana regen. Most importantly, Moonstone will increase our shielding power by 35%, and healing power by 30%!
Ardent Censer
The third item will be the well known item whose alternative player given name I will not mention. The item has received its unholy secondary naming after dominating the supporting industry a few years back. The current form of the item is not as great as before, however, it’s still one of the most appealing support picks.
Ardent Censer will give us great ratios of AP, 10% healing and shielding power, 125% base mana regen, and 4% movement speed. On top of this, we will also get a passive that enables our shields to grant 25% attack speed to ourselves and our allies. Pretty neat stuff.
Dawncore
The fourth item I would pick up on Janna would be the Dawncore. Aside from the usual AP support stats, the item will give us a passive that increases our AP by 10, and healing/shielding by 2% for every 100% base mana regen. The passive is great at converting our already acquired base mana regen to pure gold value.
Redemption
A nice item to finish off our build would be the Redemption. The item will give us an active AOE heal which we can use to periodically heal our entire team.
Boots
The best boots for our Janna ARAM build will be the Ionian Boots of Lucidity. The extra cooldown reduction will help us output more shielding, healing, and CC/damage.
Runes for Janna ARAM
- Glacial Augment
- Magical Footwear
- Biscuit Collection
- Cosmic Insight
- Font of Life
- Revitalize
A great keystone for Janna in ARAM is Glacial Augment. It will give us a quite helpful extra slow on our Q and W ability. We can follow Glacial up with Magical Footwear, which will grant us free boots, and save us some gold.
The next two runes I would take are the Biscuit Collection and Cosmic Insight. The cookies are great for extra early mana, and Cosmic is great as it will reduce our cooldowns.
Finally, I would also take Font of Life and Revitalize. Font of Life will give healing to us and our allies any time we impair an enemy, while Revitalize is a core rune as it will increase our healing and shielding by 5%.
Final Thoughts
Janna is an immensely powerful and consistent ARAM pick. She can work pretty well with almost any comp. She is great to support the team by offering great amounts of healing, shielding, and peeling. To play to her natural strengths, the greatest thing to do is to just go with a natural support build.
