Playing as Senna
Tips to maximize your impact
- Collect every soul
Attack the souls held by the Mist whenever you can: each soul freed with Absolution (passive) increases your AD, attack range and crit chance.
- One beam to heal and damage
Fire Piercing Darkness (Q) through an ally or an enemy to hit both: the beam heals your allies, and damages and slows enemies in the line.
- Last Embrace on a slowed target
Cast Last Embrace (W) on a target that's already slowed or immobilized: after a short delay, they and nearby enemies are rooted.
- Hide your team in the Mist
Cast Curse of the Black Mist (E) to engage or escape with your team: allies who enter it are camouflaged, then fast and unselectable.
- Save an ally across the map
Cast Dawning Shadow (R) to save an ally across the map: the beam has unlimited range and shields allies.
Playing against Ezreal
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
