Playing as Gwen

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Land 4 autos before your Q

    Land 4 autos before Snip Snip! (Q): each auto adds a snip, on top of the first and the last.

  2. Hit with the center of your Q

    Land the center of Snip Snip! (Q): in the center, part of the damage becomes true damage and each snip applies A Thousand Cuts (passive).

  3. Mist against poke

    Place Hallowed Mist (W) against poke and ranged CC: enemies outside the mist can't target you, except towers.

  4. Use all three casts of your R

    Cast all three Needlework (R) activations within 6 seconds: the first throws one needle, then three, then five, with growing damage.

Playing against Dr. Mundo

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Infected Bonesaw (Q) hits the first enemy, and it's his only ranged spell to slow you.

  2. Save your best CC for later

    If you have several CCs, lead with the least valuable: Goes Where He Pleases (passive) lets him resist the first immobilizing effect.

  3. Don't focus him during his R

    Don't keep hitting him during Maximum Dosage (R): he regenerates part of his max health for the whole duration and gains move speed.

  4. Target his carries in teamfights

    In teamfights, target his carries rather than him: Goes Where He Pleases (passive) gives him far stronger health regen than normal.
