Dauntless Instinct (passive): Each ability leaves a mark on the target. The next auto-attack on the mark deals bonus damage equal to a percentage of the target’s maximum HP. Weave auto-attacks between each ability.
All Out (R): Transforms K’Santé — makes him more squishy but deals massive damage. Q becomes faster, W resets, and E deals more damage. Save this for solo fights or key picks.
Wall combos: walls are crucial. Learn the positions of the walls on the map to maximise E (knocking an enemy into a wall deals bonus damage and a longer knock-up).
Q empower: the first two casts of Q are pokes/slows. The third cast is empowered: pulls the enemy towards you + stun. Always aim for the triple cast.
E (Footwork): dash with reactivation. In normal mode, reposition. In All Out mode, fast dash + burst of damage.

Activate R during a general teamfight — K'Santé is too squishy in All Out when facing an entire team.
Don’t use auto-attacks between Qs — you’ll lose all the passive procs.
Don’t use E without a nearby wall — you’ll lose the wall slam bonus.

K'Santé has one of the highest skill ceilings in Wild Rift — wall combos take a lot of practice.
All Out deals physical damage that pierces armour — very effective against tanks.
E in All Out is virtually instantaneous and deals massive damage — it’s the main tool in R.

K'Santé is generally played as Top. The first objective is to freeze or trade short depending on the matchup. reach level 5 even or ahead.

K'Santé takes over in mid game: turn kills into tower pressure (demolish). roam mid if you're dominating.

K'Santé is usually punished by forcing its first defensive or spacing tool too early.
