Playing as Renata Glasc

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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%.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Blitzcrank

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Rocket Grab (Q) catches the first enemy hit, so one minion is enough to block it.

  2. Step up after a missed grab

    Step up when Rocket Grab (Q) misses you: it has a 20 to 16 second cooldown, and without it he has to walk up to you with Overdrive (W).

  3. Respect his level 2

    Once he hits level 2, don't push far from your tower without vision of his brushes: Rocket Grab (Q) into Power Fist (E) knocks you into the air among his allies.

  4. Take the grab for your carry

    If you're tanky, stand in front of your carry: Rocket Grab (Q) catches the first enemy hit, and it's better if that's you.

  5. Don't count on a shield

    Near him, don't count on a shield: Static Field (R) destroys nearby enemies' shields and silences them.
