Playing as Singed

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Fling them into your glue

    Cast Mega Adhesive (W) behind you, then Fling (E): a target flung into the glue is rooted there.

  2. Deny dashes with your glue

    Cast Mega Adhesive (W) under an enemy who has a dash: in the glue, they're slowed and grounded, so they can't dash.

  3. Circle them in your poison

    Circle around enemies with Poison Trail (Q) on: every enemy following you walks through the poison, which damages them every second.

  4. Insanity Potion before you dive

    Drink Insanity Potion (R) before you dive: you gain power, resistances and speed, and your trail applies Grievous Wounds, which reduces their healing.

  5. Draw several chasers

    In a side lane, draw several enemies into chasing you: they walk through Poison Trail (Q), and that's that many players missing from objectives.

Playing against Malphite

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Pop his shield before trading

    Break Granite Shield (passive) with a cheap hit before taking a real trade: it absorbs 10% of his max health and triples his bonus armor.

  2. Lean on magic damage

    If you deal magic damage, lean on it in trades: his only resistances come from Thunderclap (W), which only gives armor.

  3. Trade when his mana runs low

    Trade when his mana runs low: Seismic Shard (Q) costs 70 to 90 mana, and it's his only ranged slow.

  4. Respect his level 6

    Once he hits level 6, only step up if he's visible: Unstoppable Force (R) comes from far away, nothing stops it, and its impact knocks every enemy in the area into the air.

  5. Spread out from your allies

    When he has Unstoppable Force (R), spread out from your allies in teamfights: the impact knocks every enemy in the area into the air.
