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 Vi

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back off when she charges her punch

    Back off or sidestep as soon as she charges Vault Breaker (Q): fully charged, it deals double damage, and charging slows her.

  2. Short trades

    Take short trades: on her third hit on you, Denting Blows (W) removes some of your armor and gives her attack speed.

  3. Save your CC for after her charge

    If you have CC, save it for after Cease and Desist (R): nothing stops her during the charge, but once she lands, your CC and displacement effects work on her again.
