Ensure priority when it's safe, then shift. Play around with jungler timers and windows without Cleanse.
Mid
Control side vision, look for Flash-R on an isolated carry. Convert to lens.
Early
Q for priority, E for threat; call your jungler for a level 5 pick.
Mid
Constant roaming between mid and bot; force 4v3s with a claw angle.
Late
Flank on enemy backline; otherwise, keep R to neutralize the opposing assassin.
Early
Punish them when their defensive spells are on CD; synchronize your jungler for a dive.
Mid
Deep vision and lens entry control; a well-placed Flash-R decides the game.
Power Spikes
Level 5 (Frozen Tomb)
Global engagement threat; every available Flash becomes a pick opportunity.
How to Play
- Think flanks: your E threat is worth as much as its activation. Force errors simply by brandishing it.
- Don't systematically teleport with E; use reactivation to dodge or bait a key spell.
- Announce your R timers and Flash angles; your team must be ready to follow at half-second notice.
- Controlled push-priority then roam: your W/R ganks are very reliable.
- Counter poke, play the wave from cover and ask for a jungler setup to force an all-in.
- Look for windows as soon as the enchanter has failed his peel spell.
- Aggressive vision before targets: an E over the wall + Flash-R often decides the fight.
Playing Against
- Save Cleanse, Quicksilver, or Stasis for her R: without it, she locks down and isolates the target.
- Warding flanking angles: E's claw from the mist is its main weapon.
- Punish her empty E's: if she doesn't reactivate, she won't have an engagement tool for several seconds.
- Move aside after a pick: their R zone punishes tight packs around targets.
