Playing as Kayle

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Play safe early

    Play safe early on: Divine Ascent (passive) empowers your autos with each level, adding range, speed and waves of fire.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Trundle

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Draw him out of his domain

    Don't fight in Frozen Domain (W): he gains move speed, attack speed and increased healing inside. Back off to draw him out of the zone.

  2. Back off after his Chomp

    If you deal physical damage, back off after his Chomp (Q): it steals some of your attack damage for a few seconds, and he gains it.

  3. Get away from his pillar fast

    Get away from Pillar of Ice (E) as fast as you can: it slows nearby enemies and blocks the path while it stands.

  4. Back off when he steals your resists

    Back off when he casts Subjugate (R) on you: he steals part of your armor and magic resist, and gains what you lose.
