Playing as Lissandra

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Poke through a minion

    Cast Ice Shard (Q) through a minion: the spear shatters on it, and its shards damage and slow the champion behind.

  2. Flank with your claw

    Engage from the flank with Glacial Path (E): recast it to blink to the claw, then root nearby enemies with Ring of Frost (W).

  3. Ult yourself if you get focused

    If you're getting focused, cast Frozen Tomb (R) on yourself: you become untargetable for a moment, heal based on your missing health, and the ice slows enemies around you.

  4. Fight where they fall

    Stay in the heart of teamfights: Iceborn Subjugation (passive) turns an enemy champion who dies near you into a Frozen Thrall, which slows, then explodes.

Playing against Gnar

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Play hard against Mini Gnar

    Take your trades when he's Mini Gnar with little Rage Gene (passive): he then has no stun and none of Mega Gnar's defenses.

  2. Dodge his boomerang

    Dodge Boomerang Throw (Q): it slows you, and if he catches it on the way back, its cooldown drops.

  3. Short trades

    Take short trades: on every third auto or ability that hits you, Hyper (W) adds damage based on your max health.

  4. Stay away from walls

    Stay away from walls against Mega Gnar: GNAR! (R) knocks back every nearby enemy, and those who hit a wall are stunned.
