Playing as Lulu

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Polymorph the diving assassin

    Save Whimsy (W) for the assassin diving your carry: turned into a critter, they can't attack or cast spells.

  4. 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 Nami

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her bubble, then step up

    Change direction when she casts Aqua Prison (Q), then step up if she misses: it's her only stun outside her ult, on a 12 to 8 second cooldown.

  2. Back off when she blesses her ADC

    Avoid trading when she casts Tidecaller's Blessing (E) on her ally: their next autos and abilities slow you and deal more damage.

  3. Dodge the wave sideways

    Step out to the side of Tidal Wave (R): it travels a long way but moves slowly, and its slow lasts longer the more distance it has covered.

  4. Target her: she has no dash

    If you can engage, target Nami when she steps up: with no dash or leap, she can only walk away.
