Playing as Renata Glasc
Tips to maximize your impact
- Shield and slow in one cast
Cast Loyalty Program (E) through allies and enemies: its two missiles shield your allies and slow enemies by 30%.
- Throw your target where you want
Recast Handshake (Q) to throw your target away from your carry, or into their allies: a thrown champion stuns the enemies they crash into.
- Bailout on the ally in danger
Cast Bailout (W) on an ally about to die mid-fight: they return to full health, then lose it over 3 seconds unless they get a takedown.
- Turn their grouped carries berserk
Cast Hostile Takeover (R) on their grouped carries: berserk, they attack the nearest unit, their own allies first.
Playing against Alistar
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade after his Headbutt
Take a trade right after his Headbutt (W): without it, he can't engage from range, and its cooldown is 14 to 10 seconds.
- Watch who can follow him
Back off when his carry is close enough to follow him, and play hard when they're far away: an Alistar engage only kills if someone follows up.
- Respect his level 2
Once he hits level 2, stay out of Headbutt (W) range: combined with Pulverize (Q), he knocks you into the air as soon as he arrives.
- Save your CC for after his R
If you have CC, save it for after Unbreakable Will (R): the spell removes the CC on him when cast, but doesn't protect him from what comes next.
