Playing as Ivern
Tips to maximize your impact
- Gank while your groves grow
Place your groves, then go gank while they grow: Friend of the Forest (passive) lets you free the camp without fighting it once the grove is fully grown.
- Ping after landing your Q
After landing Rootcaller (Q), ping your team: allies who attack the rooted target dash into attack range, and you can dash to the target by recasting.
- Seed the ally who engages
Cast Triggerseed (E) on the ally who engages: the shield explodes after a moment and slows enemies around them.
- Command Daisy
Recast Daisy! (R) to give her a target: her 3rd consecutive auto on the same champion knocks every enemy hit into the air.

How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay behind your minions
Keep your minions between you and Ivern: Rootcaller (Q) roots the first enemy hit, and his allies can then dash to you.
- Avoid his brush
Don't fight in or near the brush from Brushmaker (W): Ivern and his nearby allies gain bonus magic damage on their autos there.
- Don't take three hits from Daisy
Focus Daisy! (R) or leave her range before her 3rd consecutive auto on you: it triggers a shockwave that knocks everyone it hits into the air.
- Take his camps
Take his camps while his groves grow: Friend of the Forest (passive) stops him from attacking non-epic monsters, so he has to wait for a grove to grow before he can free them.
Abilities and cooldowns
Ivern cannot attack or be attacked by non-epic monsters. Ivern can create magical groves on jungle camps which grow over time. When the grove is fully grown, Ivern may free the monsters to receive gold and experience.
