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 Yone

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back off after two Mortal Steels

    Get out of his line after two Mortal Steel (Q) hits: the next one makes him dash forward and knocks the enemies hit into the air.

  2. Avoid his hits in spirit form

    During Soul Unbound (E), avoid taking hits: when he snaps back, part of all the damage he dealt you is repeated.

  3. Trap his return

    If you have ground-targeted CC, place it on the body he left behind: when Soul Unbound (E) ends, he has to return there.

  4. Judge him by his crit items

    Judge his threat by his crit items more than his level: Way of the Hunter (passive) raises his critical strike chance, so each crit item does more for him.

  5. Don't line up with your allies

    In teamfights, don't line up with your allies in front of him: Fate Sealed (R) hits every enemy in a line and knocks them into the air toward him.
