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 Gwen
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Enter her mist or wait
To hit her during Hallowed Mist (W), walk into the mist or wait for it to fade: from outside, you can't target her.
- Trade before her 4 autos
Take short trades before she lands 4 autos: each one adds a snip to Snip Snip! (Q).
- Get out of her needles' path
Step out of the Needlework (R) line: she can recast it twice within 6 seconds, with three then five needles.
- Send two to answer her split
Answer her split push with two players rather than alone: A Thousand Cuts (passive) heals her on every auto against a champion.
