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 Shen
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay on the same side as his blade
Stay on the same side as his spirit blade: if it doesn't pass through you, Twilight Assault (Q) deals much less damage.
- Trade after his E
Take a trade after his Shadow Dash (E): it's both his taunt and his only dash, on an 18 to 10 second cooldown.
- No autos into his Refuge
Don't waste autos on targets inside Spirit's Refuge (W): they're blocked there. Use spells instead, or wait for the zone to end.
- Interrupt his ult
If you have CC, save it for Stand United (R): Shen channels before teleporting, and interrupting him keeps him away from the teamfight.
- Push when he leaves
When he leaves lane with Stand United (R), ping your team and push your wave: each ult costs him minions and tower health.
