Playing against Khazix
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Stay WITH your team: Kha'Zix can't do anything against non-isolated targets, his damage drops drastically.
Wards and vision are crucial: he engages from R invisibility and bushes.
If you're the ADC, never separate from your team — you're his priority target as an isolated squishy.
His E (jump) has a long cooldown if he doesn't kill — if he jumps and misses the kill, he's trapped.
