Lissandra's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Iceborn Subjugation (P)

When an enemy champion dies near Lissandra they become a Frozen Thrall. Frozen Thralls slow nearby enemies and then, after a delay, shatter from the intense cold, dealing magic damage to nearby targets.

Playing as Akali

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Leave the ring for your auto

    After each spell that hits, step out of the Assassin's Mark (passive) ring: your next auto gains range and damage.

  2. Mark before you leap

    Mark your target with Shuriken Flip (E) before leaping with Perfect Execution (R): recasting Shuriken Flip takes you back to them, even after your leap.

  3. Dive inside your smoke

    Cast Twilight Shroud (W) to dive under the enemy tower: inside the smoke you are invisible and untargetable, but an auto or a spell reveals you briefly.

  4. Save your second dash to finish

    Save the second dash of Perfect Execution (R) to finish: its damage grows with the target's missing health.

Playing against Lissandra

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Don't hug her

    Don't stand right next to her when Ring of Frost (W) is up: it roots every enemy near her, and it has a 10 to 8 second cooldown.

  2. Cut off her Glacial Path

    If you have CC, land it on her while the claw of Glacial Path (E) is traveling: immobilized, she can't blink to it, or drop on you with Ring of Frost (W).

  3. Fight back after her claw

    After her engage, fight back: Glacial Path (E) has a 24 to 12 second cooldown, and without it, she can't reposition in an instant.

  4. Save a way out of her R

    If you have a cleanse, save it for Frozen Tomb (R): on you, it stuns you, and the ice around you slows your allies.
