Playing as Kha'Zix

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Pounce on isolated targets

    Jump on an isolated target with Leap (E), then Taste Their Fear (Q): with no ally nearby, Unseen Threat (passive) marks them and the spell hits much harder.

  2. Vanish to reposition

    In teamfights, cast Void Assault (R) to vanish and reposition: the invisibility triggers Unseen Threat (passive), and your next auto damages and slows.

  3. Heal with your spike

    Detonate Void Spike (W) close to you in the jungle or in teamfights: you heal if you're inside the explosion area.

  4. Pick your evolutions well

    Pick your evolutions to fit the game: evolved Leap (E) resets on each takedown, evolved Taste Their Fear (Q) gains range and a lower cooldown on isolated targets.

Playing against Diana

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her crescent

    Dodge Crescent Strike (Q): without the mark, Lunar Rush (E) keeps its 22 to 14 second cooldown and she can't recast it.

  2. Play hard before she hits 6

    Take trades before she hits level 6: without Moonfall (R), she has no pull or slow to keep you in melee range.

  3. Spread out from your allies

    Spread out from your allies when she dives: Moonfall (R) pulls in nearby enemies and hits harder for each champion pulled.
