Playing as Lee Sin

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Kick your target into your team

    For the Insec, land Sonic Wave (Q), reach the target, ward behind them and jump to it with Safeguard (W): Dragon's Rage (R) kicks them toward your team.

  2. Recast Q on a low-health target

    Wait until your target has lost health before casting Resonating Strike (Q): its damage scales with missing health, and you have 3 seconds to cast it.

  3. Ward hop to escape

    Cast Safeguard (W) on an ally, minions included, or on a ward to dodge or escape: it has a 7-second cooldown and also shields the targeted allied champion.

  4. Get ahead early

    Look for invades, ganks and objectives early on: Lee Sin is strongest early, and his impact drops once the others have their items.

Playing against Jarvan IV

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Step out of his flag's line

    As soon as he plants Demacian Standard (E), step out of the line between him and the flag: Dragon Strike (Q) pulls him to it and knocks anyone in his path into the air.

  2. Punish him after his combo

    Punish him after his flag-and-lance combo: without the flag, he has no dash to get out, and Demacian Standard (E) has a 12 to 10 second cooldown.

  3. Save a way out of his arena

    If you have a way over walls, save it for Cataclysm (R): the arena can't be crossed on foot and locks you in with him while it lasts.
