Playing as Seraphine

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Double your Surround Sound

    Make Surround Sound (W) your third basic spell: Stage Presence (passive) casts it twice, and the second, cast while shielded, heals your allies.

  2. Beat Drop on a slowed target

    Cast Beat Drop (E) on enemies that are already slowed: they're rooted, and those already immobilized are stunned.

  3. Finish with High Note

    Save High Note (Q) for a wounded target: its damage grows with the health they've lost.

  4. Send Encore through an ally

    Cast Encore (R) through an ally toward the enemies: each champion hit, allies included, extends the spell's range.

Playing against Blitzcrank

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Rocket Grab (Q) catches the first enemy hit, so one minion is enough to block it.

  2. Step up after a missed grab

    Step up when Rocket Grab (Q) misses you: it has a 20 to 16 second cooldown, and without it he has to walk up to you with Overdrive (W).

  3. Respect his level 2

    Once he hits level 2, don't push far from your tower without vision of his brushes: Rocket Grab (Q) into Power Fist (E) knocks you into the air among his allies.

  4. Take the grab for your carry

    If you're tanky, stand in front of your carry: Rocket Grab (Q) catches the first enemy hit, and it's better if that's you.

  5. Don't count on a shield

    Near him, don't count on a shield: Static Field (R) destroys nearby enemies' shields and silences them.
