Rumble's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Junkyard Titan (P)

Every spell Rumble casts gives him Heat. When he reaches 50% Heat he reaches Danger Zone, granting all his basic abilities bonus effects. When he reaches 100% Heat, he starts Overheating, gaining bonus Attack Speed and granting his basic attacks bonus damage, but making him unable to cast spells for a few seconds.

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 Rumble

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade when he overheats

    Take a trade when he overheats: at 100% Heat, Junkyard Titan (passive) stops him from casting spells for a few seconds.

  2. Leave his Flamespitter cone

    Back out of the Flamespitter (Q) cone: it burns for 3 seconds, with damage based on your max health.

  3. Avoid chokepoints

    Avoid chokepoints in teamfights against him: The Equalizer (R) leaves a trail of fire there that slows and burns everyone who crosses it.

  4. Target him: he has no dash

    In teamfights, if you can engage, target Rumble: he has no dash, only the speed from Scrap Shield (W).
