Playing as Bel'Veth

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Change direction with each dash

    Chain Void Surge (Q) in different directions: each direction has its own cooldown, which drops with your attack speed.

  2. Only cast W when it can't miss

    Cast Above and Below (W) when the target can't dodge it: hitting a champion knocks them into the air and refreshes Void Surge (Q) in that direction.

  3. Eat the coral to transform

    After a kill or an epic monster, eat the Void Coral with Endless Banquet (R): your true form gives you health, range and attack speed.

  4. Farm the big monsters

    Take large monsters, large minions and kills: Death in Lavender (passive) gives you permanent attack speed for each one.

Playing against Cho'Gath

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Keep moving

    Keep moving against him: Rupture (Q) strikes an area on the ground, and an enemy standing still takes a knock-up, damage and a slow.

  2. Punish him while he farms

    Punish him when he goes for last hits: Carnivore (passive) restores health and mana for each unit he kills, and he lasts a long time in lane if you let him farm.

  3. Keep your distance if you can

    If you have range, keep your distance: his kit has no dash, only the slows from Rupture (Q) and Vorpal Spikes (E).

  4. Beware Feast at low health

    Don't stay in melee range at low health when Feast (R) is up: its true damage ignores your resistances, even if you're a tank.
