Playing as Kennen

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Harass melees with Q

    Against a melee champion, harass with Thundering Shuriken (Q) from your range: the shuriken flies far and applies Mark of the Storm (passive).

  2. Three marks to stun

    Hit the same target with Thundering Shuriken (Q), Lightning Rush (E) then Electrical Surge (W): each spell applies Mark of the Storm (passive), and the third stuns.

  3. Trade with your 5th auto

    Take your trades when your 5th auto is ready: Electrical Surge (W) adds magic damage and a Mark of the Storm (passive) to it.

  4. Engage into the middle of the group

    To engage, rush into the group with Lightning Rush (E), Flash if needed, then cast Slicing Maelstrom (R): its repeated hits apply marks and stun.

Playing against Dr. Mundo

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Infected Bonesaw (Q) hits the first enemy, and it's his only ranged spell to slow you.

  2. Save your best CC for later

    If you have several CCs, lead with the least valuable: Goes Where He Pleases (passive) lets him resist the first immobilizing effect.

  3. Don't focus him during his R

    Don't keep hitting him during Maximum Dosage (R): he regenerates part of his max health for the whole duration and gains move speed.

  4. Target his carries in teamfights

    In teamfights, target his carries rather than him: Goes Where He Pleases (passive) gives him far stronger health regen than normal.
