Playing as Camille
Tips to maximize your impact
- Wait before your second Q
Wait a moment before the second Precision Protocol (Q) attack: after a short delay, it hits harder and part of its damage becomes true damage.
- Hit with the edge of your W
Hit your opponent with the outer half of Tactical Sweep (W): they are slowed, take extra damage, and you heal for part of it.
- Leap off the wall onto your target
Fire Hookshot (E) at a wall near your target, then leap: you stun champions where you land, and the leap goes twice as far toward a champion.
- Isolate their carry with your R
Cast The Hextech Ultimatum (R) on their carry: they can't leave the zone, other nearby enemies are knocked away, and you interrupt their channels.
Playing against Riven
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade after her dashes
Take a trade once she has used Broken Wings (Q) and Valor (E): those are her dashes, on cooldowns of 13 seconds and 10 to 6 seconds.
- Back earlier once she hits 6
Once she hits level 6, back earlier: the Wind Slash of Blade of the Exile (R) deals more damage to enemies missing health.
- Interrupt her combo
If you have CC or a silence, use it during her combo: all her mobility comes from her spells.
