Playing as Sejuani
Tips to maximize your impact
- Land both Winter's Wrath swings
Land both Winter's Wrath (W) swings: the second deals most of the damage and slows, and each one applies a Frost stack.
- Permafrost at 4 Frost stacks
Cast Permafrost (E) as soon as your target has 4 Frost stacks: Winter's Wrath (W) and your melee allies' autos apply them.
- Shatter your stunned target
Hit a target you just stunned: Fury of the North (passive) shatters them for heavy magic damage.
- Engage with Arctic Assault
Engage with Arctic Assault (Q): enemies you pass through take a knock-up, and the charge stops on the first champion hit.
- Glacial Prison from a distance
Cast Glacial Prison (R) at their carry from far enough away: past a quarter of its range, the stun lasts longer and a storm slows nearby enemies.
Playing against Hecarim
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Leave the landing point of his R
When he casts Onslaught of Shadows (R), move away from the end of his dash: the shockwave there fears every nearby enemy, longer after a long run.
- Save your CC for his charge
If you have a slow or CC, save it for Devastating Charge (E): he gains speed as he runs, and Warpath (passive) turns it into AD.
- Save your burst for after his W
Wait for Spirit of Dread (W) to end before your burst: while it lasts, he gains armor and magic resist and heals from damage dealt around him.
- Ward his gank paths
Ward his gank paths: Devastating Charge (E) gains speed over time, so he looks to build momentum in the fog of war.
