Kled's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Skaarl, the Cowardly Lizard (P)

Kled rides his trusty steed, Skaarl, who takes damage for him. When Skaarl's health depletes, Kled dismounts.While dismounted, Kled's abilities change and he deals less damage to champions. Kled can restore Skaarl's courage by fighting enemies. At maximum courage, Kled remounts with a portion of Skaarl's health.

Playing as Illaoi

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Fight near walls

    Fight near walls: Prophet of an Elder God (passive) spawns your tentacles there, and each tentacle that hits a champion heals you.

  2. Hit the spirit you pulled

    After Test of Spirit (E), attack the spirit: it echoes part of its damage to its owner, and if it dies, the enemy is slowed and marked for your tentacles.

  3. Ult after the engage

    Cast Leap of Faith (R) in the middle of several enemies, after their engage or your team's: one tentacle spawns per champion hit, untargetable while it lasts.

  4. Recast W during your ult

    During Leap of Faith (R), recast Harsh Lesson (W) as soon as it's back: its cooldown is reduced, and each hit makes every nearby tentacle slam.

Playing against Kled

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Move away if he hooks you

    If Bear Trap on a Rope (Q) hooks you, move away from him right away: he only rips the trap out, with damage and a pull, if he stays near you for a short moment.

  2. Short trades

    Take a short trade, then back off: Violent Tendencies (W) gives him 4 fast autos, and the fourth deals damage based on your max health.

  3. Hit him while he's on foot

    When Skaarl goes down, hit Kled without letup: on foot, he deals less damage to champions, and Skaarl, the Cowardly Lizard (passive) remounts him once his courage is back.

  4. Get out of his charge's path

    When he casts Chaaaaaaaarge!!! (R), get out of his path: Skaarl rushes the first champion in the way, and hits harder after a long charge.
