Playing as Milio

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Drop your campfire by your carry

    Cast Cozy Campfire (W) near your carry before a trade: the hearth follows them, gives them attack range and health over time, and applies Fired Up! (passive).

  2. Protect your carry with your E

    Stay behind your carry and protect them with Warm Hugs (E): its two charges stack on the same target, shield and move speed included.

  3. Kick back whoever engages

    Aim Ultra Mega Fire Kick (Q) at whoever engages: it knocks back the first enemy hit, then explodes behind them and slows nearby enemies.

  4. Save your R for their engage

    Save Breath of Life (R) for the enemy engage: it cleanses disabling and immobilizing CC from nearby allies, heals them and gives them tenacity.

Playing against Hwei

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his damage spell

    Trade after he uses a damage spell: Devastating Fire (QQ), Severing Bolt (QW) and Molten Fissure (QE) share a 10 to 6 second cooldown.

  2. Don't stand still or alone

    Don't stand still or alone: Severing Bolt (QW) strikes after a delay and deals more damage to isolated or immobilized enemies.

  3. Jump on him if you can

    If you can engage, jump on him right after one of his CC spells: Hwei has no dash or leap, and Subject: Torment (E) has a 12 to 10 second cooldown.

  4. Move away from the ally hit by his R

    If an ally is hit by Spiraling Despair (R), move away from them: the vision expands around its target, slows and damages nearby enemies, then explodes.
