Playing as Lillia

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Shyvana

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade when her Fury is low

    Take a trade when her Dragon Fury is low: she needs it to transform with Dragon's Descent (R), and her dragon form ends when the bar is empty.

  2. Leave her trail of fire

    Get out of the Molten Burst (E) trail when she's in dragon form: the fireball leaves fire there that burns every second.

  3. Spread out from your allies

    Spread out from your allies when she's in dragon form: her spells hit several enemies, and Dragon's Descent (R) makes those she flies over flee.

  4. Don't give her the large monsters

    Contest large monsters: Scalemail (passive) gives her resistances with each takedown on a large monster, large minion or champion.
