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 Shaco

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back before you get too low

    Back before your health drops too low: below 30% health, Two-Shiv Poison (E) deals much more damage to you.

  2. Move away from his clone

    Move away from the Hallucinate (R) clone before it dies: it explodes and spawns three boxes that fear nearby enemies.

  3. Focus him when he engages

    If you can reach him, focus him when he engages with Deceive (Q): he no longer has it to escape, on a 13 to 11 second cooldown.

  4. Ward his camps and your entrances

    Ward near his camps and at the entrances to your lane: spot him before Deceive (Q), which makes him invisible for his gank.

  5. Move carefully in his jungle

    Move carefully in his jungle: Jack In The Box (W) goes invisible, fears the champion who comes near, then shoots nearby enemies for 5 seconds.
