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 Nami

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her bubble, then step up

    Change direction when she casts Aqua Prison (Q), then step up if she misses: it's her only stun outside her ult, on a 12 to 8 second cooldown.

  2. Back off when she blesses her ADC

    Avoid trading when she casts Tidecaller's Blessing (E) on her ally: their next autos and abilities slow you and deal more damage.

  3. Dodge the wave sideways

    Step out to the side of Tidal Wave (R): it travels a long way but moves slowly, and its slow lasts longer the more distance it has covered.

  4. Target her: she has no dash

    If you can engage, target Nami when she steps up: with no dash or leap, she can only walk away.
