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 Kindred

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Move away after their E

    When Mounting Dread (E) hits you, move away: Kindred's third auto on you sends Wolf, who strikes based on your missing health.

  2. Leave Wolf's zone

    Leave the Wolf's Frenzy (W) zone: inside, Wolf bites Lamb's target based on their current health, and Dance of Arrows (Q) comes back much faster.

  3. Use their R zone to your advantage

    At low health, step into the zone of Lamb's Respite (R): no one dies there, enemies included, and everyone inside is healed at the end.

  4. Contest their hunts

    Contest the monsters Kindred hunts: each successful hunt from Mark of the Kindred (passive) empowers their spells for the rest of the game, and every 4, their range.
