Playing as Cassiopeia

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Poison, then bite

    Land Noxious Blast (Q), then chain Twin Fang (E) while the poison lasts: the poisoned target takes extra damage, and you heal.

  2. Kite with your speed

    Hit a champion with Noxious Blast (Q) to kite: the spell gives you move speed, and Serpentine Grace (passive) makes every speed bonus more effective.

  3. Ground those who dive you

    Place Miasma (W) on those trying to jump on you: inside the clouds, enemies are slowed and can't use movement abilities.

  4. Turn to face your pursuers

    Cast Petrifying Gaze (R) toward those chasing you, after a Flash if needed: those facing you are stunned, the others only slowed.

Playing against Ekko

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Avoid his third hit

    Take short trades: his third hit on you, auto or spell, triggers Z-Drive Resonance (passive), with bonus damage and a burst of speed.

  2. Leave his Q field

    When Timewinder (Q) expands on you, leave the field: it slows you, and the device hits you again on its way back to him.

  3. Get out of his sphere

    Leave the Parallel Convergence (W) sphere as soon as it appears: if he steps into it, it stuns every enemy inside.

  4. Aim where he'll reappear

    When he's low, don't chase him blindly: Chronobreak (R) brings him back to where he was 4 seconds earlier and damages nearby enemies. Ready your spells on that spot.
