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 Morgana
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay behind your minions
Stay behind your minions: Dark Binding (Q) roots the first enemy hit, so a single minion is enough to block it.
- Don't CC into her shield
If you have CC, don't throw it into Black Shield (E): it blocks disabling and immobilizing CC while it holds, and only magic damage can break it sooner.
- Break her chains
When Soul Shackles (R) binds you, move away from her to break the chain: otherwise, at the end, you take damage again and get stunned.
- Engage when her E is down
Engage when Black Shield (E) is on cooldown: it comes back in 26 to 16 seconds, and without it, her allies have no protection against CC.
