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 Kassadin

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade before he hits 6

    Take as many trades as you can before he hits level 6: without Riftwalk (R), he has no way to move quickly, to engage or to escape.

  2. Lean on physical damage

    If you deal physical damage, lean on it in trades: Void Stone (passive) and Null Sphere (Q) only reduce magic damage.

  3. Drag it out when he chains R

    When he recasts Riftwalk (R) back to back, back off and drag the teamfight out: each quick recast doubles its mana cost, and once he's out of mana he can't blink anymore.

  4. End the game early

    Look to end the game early: at max rank, Riftwalk (R) only has a 2-second cooldown, and he blinks almost nonstop.
