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 Master Yi

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Don't run alone from his R

    Against Highlander (R), don't run alone: regroup with your team, because he gains speed and ignores slows.

  2. CC him after his Alpha Strike

    If you have CC other than a slow, land it right after Alpha Strike (Q): during the strike, he's untargetable, and Highlander (R) ignores slows.

  3. Interrupt his Meditate

    If you have CC, interrupt Meditate (W): he channels it to heal, more at low health, and to reduce the damage he takes.

  4. Pressure his jungle early

    Put pressure on his jungle early on: Master Yi is strongest once he has his items, and each stolen camp delays him.
