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 Jinx

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Short trades

    Take a short trade, then back off: with the minigun from Switcheroo! (Q), each auto increases her attack speed, so long trades favor her.

  2. Punish her lack of mobility

    If you can engage, go for her when her support walks away: with no dash or leap, Jinx can only back off on foot.

  3. Walk around her traps

    Don't step on Flame Chompers! (E): they root the champion who touches them. Walk around them or wait for them to vanish after 5 seconds.

  4. Deny her the first kill

    If you can reach her, focus her first: any takedown gives her a big speed boost with Get Excited! (passive).
