Playing as Wukong

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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).

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Rek'Sai

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay away from where she surfaces

    Keep your distance when she's burrowed near you: with Un-burrow (W), enemies near where she surfaces take a knock-up.

  2. Back off when her Fury is full

    Back off when her Fury is full: Furious Bite (E) then deals true damage.

  3. Save your CC for after her Rush

    If you have CC, save it for after Void Rush (R): she's untargetable first, then lunges at her target and can't be stopped.

  4. Destroy her tunnels

    Destroy every Tunnel (E) you find by standing on an entrance: it's a lasting path she reuses to escape or to gank.

  5. Stand still when you're hidden

    When hidden in a brush or the fog of war, stop moving if she's burrowed near you: Burrow (W) only reveals to her team unseen enemies who move.
