Kayle's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Divine Ascent (P)

Kayle's attacks are empowered by the heavens as she levels up and spends skill points. Her wings are lit aflame as she progressively gains Attack Speed, Move Speed, Attack Range, and waves of fire on her attacks.

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 Kayle

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade early

    Take your trades early: at first, her attack range is a melee champion's, and Divine Ascent (passive) only extends it as she levels up.

  2. Freeze and starve her of levels

    Freeze the wave near your tower to keep her off minions: each level empowers her autos through Divine Ascent (passive).

  3. CC during her R, damage after

    During Divine Judgment (R), hold your damage but use any CC you have: the target can't take damage, but can still be slowed or stunned.

  4. Force early objectives

    Force objectives and teamfights early on: Kayle gains power with every level, so every minute of the game plays in her favor.
