Playing as Aatrox

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Hit with the edge of your blade

    Land the edge of The Darkin Blade (Q): enemies hit by the edge take a short knock-up and more damage, so Umbral Dash (E) heals you for more.

  2. Reposition your blade with your dash

    Cast Umbral Dash (E) during The Darkin Blade (Q) to put the edge on your target: the dash doesn't interrupt your other spells.

  3. Trap your target with your chains

    Cast Infernal Chains (W) when the target can't leave the zone, against a wall or in a chokepoint: if they stay inside, they get pulled back to the impact point.

  4. Transform before the teamfight

    Cast World Ender (R) before you engage, not in the middle of the teamfight: you instantly gain AD, increased healing and move speed.

Playing against Lillia

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Hug her or back off from her Q

    Against Blooming Blows (Q), stick to her or back out of range: only the outer edge of the zone adds true damage.

  2. Leave the center of her W

    Get out of the center of Watch Out! Eep! (W): the zone deals much more damage there than at the edge.

  3. Dodge her spells, seed included

    Dodge her spells, even Swirlseed (E), which rolls to the first enemy: each one marks you for Lilting Lullaby (R), which puts every marked enemy to sleep.

  4. Save your CC for her

    If you have CC, use it on her: with no dash, she relies on the move speed Blooming Blows (Q) gives her for each spell that hits.
