Playing as Lulu
Tips to maximize your impact
- Cast E on your carry first
Cast Help, Pix! (E) on your carry before they trade: they get a shield, and Pix fires along with each of their autos.
- Pix on the enemy, then your Q
Send Pix onto an enemy with Help, Pix! (E), then cast Glitterlance (Q): Pix also fires one from where he is, right on the target.
- Polymorph the diving assassin
Save Whimsy (W) for the assassin diving your carry: turned into a critter, they can't attack or cast spells.
- Grow the ally being focused
Cast Wild Growth (R) on the ally being focused or going all-in: they gain a lot of health, and nearby enemies are knocked into the air, then slowed.
Playing against Ashe
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Short trades
Take short trades: each auto slows you with Frost Shot (passive), and her autos deal more damage to slowed targets.
- Back off during her Focus
Back off when she activates Ranger's Focus (Q): for a few seconds, her attack speed rises and each auto becomes a flurry of arrows.
- Punish her lack of mobility
If you can engage, go for her when her support drifts away: her kit has no dash, only slows.
- Dodge her long-range arrow
Prioritize dodging Enchanted Crystal Arrow (R) fired from far away: the farther the arrow has traveled, the longer the stun.
