The composition Reroll Repentant with Aatrox and Kalista
Despite appearances, the real carry of this composition is indeed Aatrox. Once you have it 3 stars with a strategy of slow roll niveau 5, it becomes almost unkillable with the right items, giving your DPS time to apply its damage. If you also find Kalista 3 stars, you can carry it, but otherwise you can always go for the level 8 or 9 and play Kayle in place.
In stage 2, you can either try to make a winning streak if you quickly Aatrox 2 stars et 3 Repentants (Redeemed), or on the contrary aim for the losing streak by purposely making yourself weak to maximize your economy.
Later in the game, the composition is quite flexible, being able to play 4 Knights, 2 or 3 Battleships (Ironclad), Mystics, 6 Repents, the abomination...

Other Interesting Items
Solar Cape : It is always interesting to have anti-care and burn in this composition. This object can go on Leona ou rell for example.
Items for Kayle : If you can't find many copies of Kalista, you can instead play Kayle late game carry with items like Guinsoo's Raging Blade, hand of justice, Guardian angel, Doom Blade...
Thief's Gloves : If you play Gwen in the late game, Thief's Gloves can make it much more powerful. Otherwise, it takes advantage of items like blue buff, Pistolame hextech, Precious Gauntlet...
The best radiant items
Always try to choose radiant items according to what you need : if you don't have all the items in your main carry yet, take a light item from it. Conversely, if he already has three items, favor utility or items for a secondary carry.

What to choose as an emblem (spatula object)?
Repentant (Redeemed) ( + ): You can easily play 6 Repentants with this Spatula, which can go on Kalista whether you play it on carry, or on champions like fiddlesticks, Thread ou Gwen at the end of the game.
Legionnaire : You can more easily play 4 Legionnaires with this Spatula which is relevant on Gwen for example.
Otherwise, you can use other more versatile emblems like Chevalier (Knight), Rider, Mystique ou Battleship (Ironclad) for example.

As usual, the Force of nature is always a great option.
Positioning Tips
Unless he has a Gargoyle Lithoplastron, avoid putting Aatrox in the front line: this gives him some time to load his wills of titan before being targeted, making it much less susceptible to enemy bursts.
Kalista targets the furthest opposing champion, so if you're on the same side as the carry you have a chance that she targets him with her second cast. It is essential to protect her with your other champions because you miss damage if she dies too early.
If you are against comps that target champions in the corners (Vel'Koz, Thresh, Assassin), you can play a version 6 Repents to have champions like syndra et Luxury to use as bait to protect your Kalista ou Kayle.
