Playing as Twisted Fate
Tips to maximize your impact
- Pick the right card
Lock in the card you need with Pick a Card (W): the Gold Card stuns, the Red Card slows in an area and helps clear the wave, the Blue Card restores mana.
- Stun, then throw Wild Cards
Land the Gold Card from Pick a Card (W) before Wild Cards (Q): stunned for 1 to 2 seconds depending on rank, the target can't dodge your cards.
- Push, then roam with your ult
Push your wave, then cast Destiny (R): you see every enemy champion, and the recast teleports you up to 5500 range away to gank another lane.
Playing against Galio
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade after his E
Take a trade after Justice Punch (E): it's his only dash, on an 11 to 7 second cooldown.
- Lean on physical damage
If you deal physical damage, lean on it in trades: the passive shield of Shield of Durand (W) only absorbs magic damage.
- Leave his taunt area
Leave the area while he charges Shield of Durand (W): the longer he charges, the longer and wider the taunt.
- Check where he is before a dive
Before diving one of his allies, check where Galio is: Hero's Entrance (R) flies him in from long range to an allied champion, and his landing is a knock-up.
