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 Yuumi
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay behind your minions
Keep minions between you and her: Prowling Projectile (Q) stops on the first enemy hit, and once accelerated, it slows hard.
- CC her as soon as she detaches
If you have CC, save it for the moment she detaches: once immobilized, she can't recast You and Me! (W) for a while.
- Focus the champion carrying her
Focus the champion carrying Yuumi: attached with You and Me! (W), she can only be targeted by towers, and without them she's left exposed.
- Cut her healing
If you have Grievous Wounds, apply it to the champion carrying her: they receive her healing, including from Final Chapter (R).
