Infinite Q Hecarim Guide - The Whirlwind Reaper of ARAM Mayhem

Infinite Q Hecarim, the Whirlwind Reaper of ARAM Mayhem

In ARAM Mayhem, Hecarim can achieve the infinite Q playstyle through specific augment combinations thanks to his Q ability "Rampage" and its low cooldown, becoming a whirlwind reaper in team fights. Many players know that Mystic Punch and Ethereal Weapon are the classic infinite Q combo, but these two augments are hard to get at the same time — you always seem to be missing one. Don't worry — this guide breaks down four augment methods to achieve infinite Q, plus recommended supporting augments by rarity, so you can become the ultimate whirlwind reaper in ARAM.

Three Infinite Q Methods

Method 1: Ultimate Awakening (Easiest)

The first method is the easiest: just pick up Ultimate Awakening, and after casting your ultimate you gain 300+ ability haste for 15 seconds, enabling infinite Q. With a 20-second ultimate cooldown, the 15-second infinite Q window is more than enough to finish a team fight.

Augment	Rarity	Effect
Ultimate Awakening	Prismatic	Gain 300 base ability haste for 15 seconds after casting your ultimate

Method 2: Infernal Conduit

The second method is to pick up Infernal Conduit. As long as you activate your W and damage two or more enemy champions, you can achieve infinite Q. Infernal Conduit's burn effect continuously reduces base ability cooldowns, and W's area damage can burn multiple targets simultaneously — a perfect synergy.

Augment	Rarity	Effect
Infernal Conduit	Prismatic	Apply burn to enemies; the burn effect reduces base ability cooldowns

Method 3: CDR Stacking

The third method is through stacking cooldown reduction (CDR). Picking up Infinite Recursion lets you continuously stack ability haste, or picking up Shrink Engine lets you stack ability haste through kills. If you get both, the stacking becomes absolutely insane.

Augment	Rarity	Effect
Infinite Recursion	Prismatic	Gain 60 base ability haste; each kill grants an additional +3 ability haste (stacks permanently)
Shrink Engine	Gold	Gain 10 ability haste per kill participation (stacks permanently)

Classic Combo: Mystic Punch + Ethereal Weapon

Of course, the most classic infinite Q combo is still Mystic Punch plus Ethereal Weapon. Ethereal Weapon makes abilities apply on-hit effects, and Mystic Punch makes on-hit effects reduce ability cooldowns — when combined, every Q hit reduces its own cooldown, creating a perfect infinite loop. The only problem is that it's very hard to get both augments at the same time.

Augment	Rarity	Effect
Mystic Punch	Prismatic	On-hit effects reduce base ability cooldowns by 1.25 seconds
Ethereal Weapon	Gold	Abilities apply on-hit effects

Recommended Augment Picks

Beyond the core infinite Q augments, here are the recommended supporting augments sorted by rarity:

Silver Augments

Augment	Recommendation Reason
Spin To Win	Hecarim's Q counts as a spin ability, gaining 30 ability haste + 30% damage increase
Weighted Popoffs	Hitting enemies with abilities grants "Popoff" stacks, reducing non-ultimate ability cooldowns
Speed Demon	Ability damage grants 350 movement speed; Hecarim's passive converts movement speed to attack damage
Purist - Caster	Gain CDR and convert attack speed to ability haste, further reducing Q cooldown

Gold Augments

Augment	Recommendation Reason

Get Excited!	Gain movement speed and attack speed after kill participation, synergizing with Hecarim's passive
Rabble Rousing	Abilities restore health; frequent Q casts maintain sustain

Prismatic Augments

Augment	Recommendation Reason
Giant Slayer	Shrink in size + gain movement speed; deal bonus damage to enemies larger than you

Back To Basics	Safe fallback: seal your ultimate in exchange for 35% ability damage + 70 ability haste
