Playing as Samira

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Vary your hits

    Vary your hits to build your Style: Daredevil Impulse (passive) only counts attacks or spells different from the previous one, and your ult needs an S rating.

  2. Hit immobilized enemies

    Go for the enemies your allies immobilize: Daredevil Impulse (passive) makes you dash into range, and extends the knock-up of an airborne enemy.

  3. Chain resets with Wild Rush

    Dash through a minion or your target with Wild Rush (E): if a champion you damaged dies within 3 seconds, the cooldown resets.

  4. Save your whirl for what matters

    Save Blade Whirl (W) for a projectile that matters, like Ashe's ult: the whirl destroys enemy projectiles that enter its area.

  5. Inferno Trigger up close

    Cast Inferno Trigger (R) in the middle of several enemies: 10 shots in 2 seconds on everyone around you, with life steal.

Playing against Ezreal

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Mystic Shot (Q) hits the first enemy, and each time it hits you, all his cooldowns go down.

  2. All-in after his E

    Go all-in when he has used Arcane Shift (E) to move forward: it's his only escape, on a 26 to 14 second cooldown.

  3. Fight head-on

    Look for head-on teamfights, behind your frontline: Mystic Shot (Q) stops on the first enemy hit, and Essence Flux (W) on the first champion.

  4. Beware his R at low health

    At low health, beware of Trueshot Barrage (R) even far from him: the shot crosses the whole map and hits every unit in its line.
