Playing as Miss Fortune
Tips to maximize your impact
- Double Up off a dying minion
Fire Double Up (Q) at a dying minion in front of a champion: if the shot kills the minion, the bounce onto the champion always crits.
- Switch targets
Switch targets often: Love Tap (passive) adds damage on each new target, and lowers the cooldown of Strut (W).
- Position with Strut
Activate Strut (W) to get in position before Bullet Time (R): you instantly gain its max move speed bonus, plus attack speed.
- R into clumped enemies
Cast Bullet Time (R) on enemies who are CC'd or bunched up in a chokepoint: it's a channeled cone, and each wave can crit.
Playing against Ziggs
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Walk around his mines
Walk around Hexplosive Minefield (E): each mine explodes on contact and slows you, which helps him land his other spells.
- Engage after his Satchel Charge
If you can engage, go in right after Satchel Charge (W): it's his only way to get away, on a 20 to 12 second cooldown.
- Get out of the center of his bomb
If Mega Inferno Bomb (R) lands on you, at least get out of the center: the center of the blast deals more damage than the edge.
