Playing as Wukong
Tips to maximize your impact
- Nimbus Strike, then Crushing Blow
Engage with Nimbus Strike (E), then Crushing Blow (Q): the dash gives you attack speed, and Crushing Blow shreds your target's armor before your Cyclone (R).
- Stay in close
Stay in close when you fight: Stone Skin (passive) increases your armor and health regen as long as you're fighting champions or monsters.
- Vanish to escape or dodge
Cast Warrior Trickster (W) to escape or dodge a key spell: you dash and turn invisible for a moment, and your clone stays in place to fool the enemy.
- Recast your Cyclone
Recast Cyclone (R) right after the first: the spell can be cast twice, and each spin knocks nearby enemies into the air again.
Playing against Lillia
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Hug her or back off from her Q
Against Blooming Blows (Q), stick to her or back out of range: only the outer edge of the zone adds true damage.
- Leave the center of her W
Get out of the center of Watch Out! Eep! (W): the zone deals much more damage there than at the edge.
- Dodge her spells, seed included
Dodge her spells, even Swirlseed (E), which rolls to the first enemy: each one marks you for Lilting Lullaby (R), which puts every marked enemy to sleep.
- Save your CC for her
If you have CC, use it on her: with no dash, she relies on the move speed Blooming Blows (Q) gives her for each spell that hits.
