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 Blitzcrank
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay behind your minions
Stay behind your minions: Rocket Grab (Q) catches the first enemy hit, so one minion is enough to block it.
- 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).
- 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.
- 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.
- Don't count on a shield
Near him, don't count on a shield: Static Field (R) destroys nearby enemies' shields and silences them.
