Playing as Twisted Fate

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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 Zoe

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her bubble

    Dodge Sleepy Trouble Bubble (E): asleep, you take double damage from the hit that wakes you, often her Paddle Star! (Q).

  2. Aim at her return point

    During Portal Jump (R), aim at her starting position: she returns there after 1 second, and can't move in the meantime.

  3. Don't step on her bubbles

    Don't walk onto a bubble left on the ground: a Sleepy Trouble Bubble (E) that hits nothing turns into a trap.

  4. Ward behind the walls

    Ward the hidden spots behind walls near your lane: Sleepy Trouble Bubble (E) reaches farther over a wall, and Zoe hides there to set it up.
