Playing as Singed
Tips to maximize your impact
- Fling them into your glue
Cast Mega Adhesive (W) behind you, then Fling (E): a target flung into the glue is rooted there.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 Yorick
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Dodge his Mourning Mist
Dodge Mourning Mist (E): once marked, you lose armor, his nearby graves keep raising Mist Walkers, and his units rush toward you.
- Kill his Mist Walkers first
Kill his Mist Walkers, summoned by Shepherd of Souls (passive), before going for him: a single auto or single-target spell is enough for each.
- Break his wall
If Dark Procession (W) traps you, hit the wall to break it instead of waiting for it to disappear.
- Kill the Maiden first
If you can, take down the Maiden of the Mist before Yorick: summoned by Eulogy of the Isles (R), she carries a large part of his damage and push.
- Answer his split push
Don't let him split push alone: with the Eulogy of the Isles (R) Maiden and his Mist Walkers, he quickly threatens a tower. Send someone to answer him.
