Playing as Rell
Tips to maximize your impact
- Crash down from your mount
Engage with Ferromancy: Crash Down (W), which knocks enemies into the air where you land and shields you until you remount.
- Shattering Strike on a shield
Save Shattering Strike (Q) for a shielded target: the strike breaks all their shields and stuns every unit in the line.
- Pull, then crash down
Cast Magnet Storm (R) in the middle of them, then Ferromancy: Crash Down (W) on top of them, so the enemies you just pulled in take a knock-up.
- Charge with the ally who engages
Cast Full Tilt (E) on the ally engaging with you: you both gain move speed, doubled toward enemies, and your next auto explodes.
Playing against Seraphine
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Dodge her Beat Drop
Dodge Beat Drop (E), especially if you're already slowed: it roots a slowed target and stuns an immobilized one.
- Back off before her third spell
Count her basic spells and back off before the third: Stage Presence (passive) casts it twice, whether it damages, slows or shields.
- Spread out from your allies
Spread out from your allies against Encore (R): each champion hit extends its range, and a charmed ally near you lets it reach you.
- Target her: she has no dash
If you can engage, target Seraphine: her kit has no dash to escape.
