Playing as K'Sante

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Stack your Q on minions

    Stack Ntofo Strikes (Q) on minions: after 2 hits, the next cast becomes a shockwave that stuns and pulls, so save it for the champion.

  2. Charge your W through CC

    Charge Path Maker (W) when they throw CC at you: while charging, you're Unstoppable and take less damage, then your dash knocks back and stuns.

  3. Join an ally with your E

    Cast Footwork (E) toward an ally to protect them or escape: the dash goes much farther, and you both gain a shield.

  4. Send your target through a wall

    Knock your target into a wall with All Out (R): they go through it, you follow, and you hit harder at the cost of some of your health and resistances.

Playing against Volibear

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Short trades

    Take short trades: his second Frenzied Maul (W) on the same target hits harder and heals him based on his missing health.

  2. Cut his charge short with CC

    If you have CC, use it while he charges with Thundering Smash (Q): his stunning hit is canceled, but the spell comes back right away.

  3. Back off after his Thundering Smash

    After his Thundering Smash (Q), keep your distance: until its 12 to 10 second cooldown is over, only Stormbringer (R) can bring him back onto you in one go.

  4. Don't count on your tower

    Once he hits level 6, don't count on your tower when he dives: Stormbringer (R) disables it for a few seconds on landing.
