Mage
Ranged magic damage dealer, usually solo-laning mid for burst or poke.
Mages deal magic damage through skills rather than basic attacks, typically playing the single mid lane before rotating to help side lanes once it's cleared. Some, like Eudora or Lylia, build around instant burst combos; others, like Pharsa or Valir, build around sustained poke and zoning from max range. Because most mage damage comes from skills on cooldown, mana management and cooldown reduction items are core to how the class scales.
