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 Yuumi
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay behind your minions
Keep minions between you and her: Prowling Projectile (Q) stops on the first enemy hit, and once accelerated, it slows hard.
- CC her as soon as she detaches
If you have CC, save it for the moment she detaches: once immobilized, she can't recast You and Me! (W) for a while.
- Focus the champion carrying her
Focus the champion carrying Yuumi: attached with You and Me! (W), she can only be targeted by towers, and without them she's left exposed.
- Cut her healing
If you have Grievous Wounds, apply it to the champion carrying her: they receive her healing, including from Final Chapter (R).
