Maokai's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Sap Magic (P)

Maokai's basic attack also heals him and deals additional damage on a moderate cooldown. Each time Maokai casts a spell or is struck by an enemy's spell, this cooldown is reduced.

Playing as Teemo

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Save your dart for auto attackers

    Save Blinding Dart (Q) for the champion who relies on autos, right as they start a trade: blinded, they miss their autos.

  2. Ambush while invisible

    Stand still for a moment to turn invisible with Guerrilla Warfare (passive), then strike first: when you leave invisibility, you gain attack speed.

  3. Save Move Quick to escape a gank

    Save the Move Quick (W) sprint to escape a gank: you have no dash, and its bonus isn't lost when you get hit.

  4. Place your mushrooms on busy paths

    Place Noxious Trap (R) on busy paths: jungle entrances, around dragon and Baron, river brushes. Stealthed, it slows and reveals the enemy who steps on it.

Playing against Maokai

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Watch out for brush

    Watch out for the brush near him: Sapling Toss (E) lasts longer there, explodes wider and slows more.

  2. No targeted spells during his dash

    Don't cast targeted spells during Twisted Advance (W): he's untargetable during the dash, then roots you when he arrives.

  3. Don't waste time on him

    In teamfights, go for his carries instead: each spell Maokai takes lowers the cooldown of Sap Magic (passive), which heals him on his next auto.

  4. Get out of his wall's path

    Get out of the path of Nature's Grasp (R): the wall moves slowly, and the root lasts longer if it has traveled a long way.
