Playing as Bel'Veth
Tips to maximize your impact
- Change direction with each dash
Chain Void Surge (Q) in different directions: each direction has its own cooldown, which drops with your attack speed.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 Wukong
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade after his W
Trade after Warrior Trickster (W): it's his best escape, and it has a 22 to 18 second cooldown.
- Ignore the still clone
When Warrior Trickster (W) turns him invisible, ignore the figure standing still: that's the clone, and the real Wukong just dashed off to the side.
- Spread out from your allies
When he has Cyclone (R), spread out from your allies: he spins in the middle of your team and knocks every nearby enemy into the air, twice.
- Escape after his second Cyclone
If you have a way to escape, wait for his second Cyclone (R) to end: the spell can be recast once, and each spin knocks nearby enemies into the air again.
