Playing as Kog'Maw

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Start with Caustic Spittle

    Start your trades with Caustic Spittle (Q): it reduces the target's armor and magic resist, and its ranks also give you permanent attack speed.

  2. Activate W before the fight

    Activate Bio-Arcane Barrage (W) right before the teamfight: it extends your attack range, and your autos deal damage based on the target's max health.

  3. Slow whoever charges you

    When an enemy runs at you, cast Void Ooze (E) between you and them: the trail of ooze slows everyone who crosses it.

  4. Save your R to finish

    Save Living Artillery (R) for targets below 40% health, where it deals its max damage: each shot fired in quick succession costs more mana.

Playing against Miss Fortune

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Don't stand behind low minions

    Don't stay behind a low-health minion: if Double Up (Q) kills it, the bounce that hits you always crits.

  2. Cut her speed with a small hit

    Hit her regularly, even with a small hit: Strut (W) only grants her passive move speed after a few seconds without taking damage.

  3. Go in if you can

    If you can engage, get on top of her: Miss Fortune has no dash or leap, only the speed from Strut (W).

  4. Interrupt her Bullet Time

    If you have CC, save it for Bullet Time (R): she channels in place, and interrupting her cancels the remaining waves.
