Playing as Katarina

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Pick up your daggers

    Pick up your daggers in trades and teamfights: Voracity (passive) then hits every nearby enemy, and each dagger picked up lowers the cooldown of Shunpo (E).

  2. Shunpo to your Q dagger

    After Bouncing Blade (Q), blink to its dagger with Shunpo (E): it lands behind your target, and picking it up triggers Voracity (passive).

  3. Hit everyone before the kills

    In teamfights, hit as many champions as you can before they go down: when one of them dies, Voracity (passive) sharply lowers all your cooldowns.

  4. Death Lotus after their CC

    Cast Death Lotus (R) once the enemy CC is used: it's a channel, and a single CC is enough to cancel it.

Playing against Ezreal

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Mystic Shot (Q) hits the first enemy, and each time it hits you, all his cooldowns go down.

  2. All-in after his E

    Go all-in when he has used Arcane Shift (E) to move forward: it's his only escape, on a 26 to 14 second cooldown.

  3. Fight head-on

    Look for head-on teamfights, behind your frontline: Mystic Shot (Q) stops on the first enemy hit, and Essence Flux (W) on the first champion.

  4. Beware his R at low health

    At low health, beware of Trueshot Barrage (R) even far from him: the shot crosses the whole map and hits every unit in its line.
