Playing as Seraphine
Tips to maximize your impact
- 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.
- 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.
- Finish with High Note
Save High Note (Q) for a wounded target: its damage grows with the health they've lost.
- 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 LeBlanc
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Break her chain
As soon as Ethereal Chains (E) tethers you, move away from her: if you stay chained for 1.5 seconds, you're rooted and take extra damage.
- Trade after her Distortion
Trade while Distortion (W) is on cooldown: it's her dash both to get in and to get out, and it comes back in 15 to 10 seconds.
- Save your protection for her burst
If you have a shield or a heal, save it for her combo: Sigil of Malice (Q) detonates as soon as another spell hits you, and all her damage lands at once.
- Aim at her return point
If you have CC, aim at the starting point of her Distortion (W): within 4 seconds, she can return there by recasting the spell.
- Don't hit the wrong LeBlanc
When she drops below 40% health, find the real LeBlanc before hitting: Mirror Image (passive) makes her invisible for 1 second and leaves a copy that deals no damage.
