Playing as Qiyana

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Pick your element for the job

    Pick your Terrashape (W) element for the job: river for an Ice root, terrain for Rock's bonus damage on low-health targets, brush for Wild's invisibility.

  2. Two Elemental Wraths with Terrashape

    Cast Terrashape (W) right after Elemental Wrath (Q): the dash resets its cooldown, so you can recast it in the same combo.

  3. Slam them against a wall

    Cast Supreme Display of Talent (R) toward a wall near the enemies: the explosion runs along the whole edge of the obstacle, and any river or brush it crosses explodes too.

  4. Roam with the brush element

    Roam with Wild, the brush element: Elemental Wrath (Q) then leaves a trail that makes you invisible and speeds you up.

Playing against Shaco

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back before you get too low

    Back before your health drops too low: below 30% health, Two-Shiv Poison (E) deals much more damage to you.

  2. Move away from his clone

    Move away from the Hallucinate (R) clone before it dies: it explodes and spawns three boxes that fear nearby enemies.

  3. Focus him when he engages

    If you can reach him, focus him when he engages with Deceive (Q): he no longer has it to escape, on a 13 to 11 second cooldown.

  4. Ward his camps and your entrances

    Ward near his camps and at the entrances to your lane: spot him before Deceive (Q), which makes him invisible for his gank.

  5. Move carefully in his jungle

    Move carefully in his jungle: Jack In The Box (W) goes invisible, fears the champion who comes near, then shoots nearby enemies for 5 seconds.
