Playing as Kled

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Take aggressive trades

    Take aggressive trades: Skaarl, the Cowardly Lizard (passive) takes damage for you, and once dismounted, you still have your own health.

  2. Stay near your hooked target

    After Bear Trap on a Rope (Q), stay near your target: after a short moment, you yank the trap out, which damages, pulls and slows them.

  3. Fight to remount

    When dismounted, keep hitting enemies: Skaarl, the Cowardly Lizard (passive) regains courage during the fight and puts you back in the saddle once the gauge is full.

  4. Charge from long range with your R

    Engage from long range with Chaaaaaaaarge!!! (R): the longer the run, the harder Skaarl hits the first champion in the way, and your trail speeds up your allies.

Playing against Jayce

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Watch for the orb behind his gate

    When he places Acceleration Gate (E), expect Shock Blast (Q) through it: the orb gains speed, range and damage.

  2. Back off when he goes hammer

    If you have range, back off when he switches to hammer: Mercury Hammer (R) makes him tankier, and he can't go back to cannon for 6 seconds.

  3. Engage after his Thundering Blow

    Engage after Thundering Blow (E): it's his only knockback, and it has a 20 to 10 second cooldown.

  4. Drag the game out

    If you survive the laning phase, play for time: Jayce is strongest early, when his cannon range dominates the lane.
