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 Rengar

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay away from brush

    Stay away from brush in lane: from a brush, Unseen Predator (passive) lets him leap onto you with a single auto.

  2. Trade when his Ferocity is low

    Take a trade when his Ferocity is low: at max, his next spell is empowered, and Bola Strike (E) roots you instead of slowing you.

  3. Group up when he's hunting you

    Move closer to your allies as soon as an indicator appears over your head: Rengar is hunting you, camouflaged, with Thrill of the Hunt (R).
