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 Thresh

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Keep minions between you and Thresh: Death Sentence (Q) stuns and pulls the first unit hit, so one minion is enough to block it.

  2. Step up after a missed hook

    Step up when Death Sentence (Q) misses you: he keeps its full cooldown, 19 to 9 seconds, which only goes down if the hook lands.

  3. Don't give him free autos

    Don't stay in his range for no reason: Flay (E) charges his autos between hits, and a charged auto hits hard early on.

  4. Beware the first wall of his box

    Avoid being the first to break a wall of The Box (R): that one slows and deals full damage. After that, the remaining walls deal no damage.
