Playing as Kayle
Tips to maximize your impact
- Play safe early
Play safe early on: Divine Ascent (passive) empowers your autos with each level, adding range, speed and waves of fire.
- Save your W for ganks
Save Celestial Blessing (W) to escape a gank or hold your lane: it heals you and an ally, and gives you both move speed.
- Push once you get fire waves
Push the wave as soon as you unlock your waves of fire: Divine Ascent (passive) adds them to your autos, and minions go down much faster.
- Ult the ally they're focusing
Cast Divine Judgment (R) on the ally being focused, at the last moment: they become invulnerable, then the area around them damages enemies.
Playing against Singed
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Don't chase him
Don't chase Singed: behind him, Poison Trail (Q) damages you every second, and that's what he wants.
- Get out of his glue fast
Get out of Mega Adhesive (W) fast: the glue slows and grounds you, so you can't dash.
- Keep your distance
If you're ranged, keep your distance: Fling (E) only works in melee range, and it throws you behind him, toward his allies.
- CC on him, damage on them
If you have CC, use it on Singed when he dives, then hit his allies: he's hard to bring down, but he has to come into melee range.
