Playing as Camille

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Swain

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge Nevermove on its return

    Get out of the Nevermove (E) path as it comes back: it only roots on its return to Swain, then he can pull each rooted champion to him.

  2. Leave the area of his eye

    Leave the area as soon as Vision of Empire (W) appears: it strikes and slows 1.5 seconds later, and each champion hit gives him a Soul Fragment.

  3. Keep your distance during his ult

    During Demonic Ascension (R), back off and hit from range if you can: he only drains nearby enemies, and his form ends when he stops draining.

  4. Cut his healing during his ult

    If you have Grievous Wounds, apply it during Demonic Ascension (R): the drain heals him every second, and that healing keeps him alive.
