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 Twitch
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Get out of his cloud fast
Get out of the Venom Cask (W) cloud fast: it slows you and adds a Deadly Venom stack every second, which powers up his Contaminate (E).
- Ward against his ambush
Ward your brushes and place a Control Ward on his paths: it reveals camouflaged enemies, and Ambush (Q) lets him reach you unseen.
- Focus him as soon as he appears
As soon as he comes out of the Ambush (Q) camouflage, focus him with your allies: he's fragile and has no dash to escape.
- Leave his range during his ult
During Spray and Pray (R), get out of his extended range until the effect ends: his bolts pierce every enemy, so hiding behind an ally won't protect you.
