Playing as Lissandra
Tips to maximize your impact
- 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.
- 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).
- 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.
- 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 Twisted Fate
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Back off when he shuffles his cards
Step out of his attack range when he shuffles his cards with Pick a Card (W): if he locks in the Gold Card, his next auto stuns you.
- Engage after his Gold Card
If you can engage, go in right after his Gold Card: without Pick a Card (W), he has no other stun and no dash to escape.
- Play safe when he casts his ult
As soon as he casts Destiny (R), move closer to your tower if you're low: he sees every champion on your team for 6 to 10 seconds and can teleport to you.
- Ping as soon as he disappears
Ping your team as soon as he leaves your vision: Destiny (R) takes him up to 5500 range away, which lets him gank a nearby lane.
