Playing as Lillia
Tips to maximize your impact
- Hit with the edge of your Q
Hit with the edge of Blooming Blows (Q), not the center: only the outer edge adds true damage.
- Stack your speed, then kite
Hit enemies with your spells and keep your distance: Blooming Blows (Q) gives you a stack of move speed on each hit, enough to kite and dodge.
- Start with your seed
Start the fight from range with Swirlseed (E): it damages, slows and reveals, and if it hits nothing, it rolls on to the first enemy or wall.
- Mark them all before your R
Before Lilting Lullaby (R), hit as many enemies as you can: Dream-Laden Bough (passive) marks every target of your spells, and only marked ones fall asleep.
Playing against Wukong
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade after his W
Trade after Warrior Trickster (W): it's his best escape, and it has a 22 to 18 second cooldown.
- Ignore the still clone
When Warrior Trickster (W) turns him invisible, ignore the figure standing still: that's the clone, and the real Wukong just dashed off to the side.
- Spread out from your allies
When he has Cyclone (R), spread out from your allies: he spins in the middle of your team and knocks every nearby enemy into the air, twice.
- Escape after his second Cyclone
If you have a way to escape, wait for his second Cyclone (R) to end: the spell can be recast once, and each spin knocks nearby enemies into the air again.
