Passive, spells and ultimate

Unseen Threat (P)

Nearby enemies that are Isolated from their allies are marked. Kha'Zix's abilities have interactions with Isolated targets.When Kha'Zix is not visible to the enemy team, he gains Unseen Threat, causing his next basic attack against an enemy champion to deal bonus magic damage and slow them for a few seconds.

Playing against Khazix

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Stay WITH your team: Kha'Zix can't do anything against non-isolated targets, his damage drops drastically.

2

Wards and vision are crucial: he engages from R invisibility and bushes.

3

If you're the ADC, never separate from your team — you're his priority target as an isolated squishy.

4

His E (jump) has a long cooldown if he doesn't kill — if he jumps and misses the kill, he's trapped.
