Playing as Janna

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Release your tornado early to peel

    To peel, send Howling Gale (Q) right away by recasting it: charged, it travels farther and its knock-up lasts longer, but enemies have time to dodge it.

  2. Shield your carry before trades

    Cast Eye Of The Storm (E) on your carry right before they trade: while the shield holds, they gain AD.

  3. Poke with Zephyr

    Poke with Zephyr (W) in lane: it slows and damages its target, and Tailwind (passive) adds damage based on your bonus move speed.

  4. Knock back, then stand still

    Cast Monsoon (R) to push away whoever dives your carry, then stand still: moving or casting a spell cancels the heal.

Playing against Elise

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Step up after a missed Cocoon

    Step up when her Cocoon (E) misses you: it's her only stun, on a 12 to 10 second cooldown.

  2. Don't stay low near her bite

    Don't stay in melee range at low health: in spider form, Venomous Bite (Q) lunges at you and deals damage based on your missing health.

  3. Ward the way into your lane

    Ward the path between her jungle and your lane: when she ganks, Cocoon (E) stuns you from range as soon as it hits.

  4. Drag the game out

    If you survive her first minutes, play for time: Elise is strongest early and loses impact once everyone has their items.
