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 Rengar

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay away from brush

    Stay away from brush in lane: from a brush, Unseen Predator (passive) lets him leap onto you with a single auto.

  2. Trade when his Ferocity is low

    Take a trade when his Ferocity is low: at max, his next spell is empowered, and Bola Strike (E) roots you instead of slowing you.

  3. Group up when he's hunting you

    Move closer to your allies as soon as an indicator appears over your head: Rengar is hunting you, camouflaged, with Thrill of the Hunt (R).
