Tips & Tricks

  • 1.E-Q combo (flag and drag) is your primary engage — it knocks up all enemies in the dash path.
  • 2.R (Cataclysm) traps enemies inside; coordinate with AoE teammates to wombo-combo trapped targets.
  • 3.You can E-Q-Flash to redirect the knockup, catching enemies who sidestep the normal trajectory.
  • 4.W shield scales with nearby enemies — use it in the middle of a teamfight for maximum value.
  • 5.Place E flag for the attack speed aura before objectives like Dragon or Baron to speed up the take.
