Playing as Vayne

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Three hits on the same target

    Hit the same target three times in a row, with autos or spells: on the third hit, Silver Bolts (W) adds true damage based on their max health.

  2. Tumble between autos

    Slip a Tumble (Q) between two autos: you reposition, and your next attack deals bonus damage. Its cooldown drops from 6 to 2 seconds.

  3. Pin your target to a wall

    Position yourself so that Condemn (E) pushes your target into a wall: if they hit terrain, they're stunned and take more damage.

  4. Be patient before your items

    Play safe while you're missing your first items: Vayne mostly shines later, when Silver Bolts (W) cuts through big health pools.

  5. Tumble unseen during your ult

    During Final Hour (R), each Tumble (Q) makes you invisible for a moment and comes back faster: tumble to reposition while the enemy can't target you.

Playing against Twitch

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Get out of his cloud fast

    Get out of the Venom Cask (W) cloud fast: it slows you and adds a Deadly Venom stack every second, which powers up his Contaminate (E).

  2. Ward against his ambush

    Ward your brushes and place a Control Ward on his paths: it reveals camouflaged enemies, and Ambush (Q) lets him reach you unseen.

  3. Focus him as soon as he appears

    As soon as he comes out of the Ambush (Q) camouflage, focus him with your allies: he's fragile and has no dash to escape.

  4. Leave his range during his ult

    During Spray and Pray (R), get out of his extended range until the effect ends: his bolts pierce every enemy, so hiding behind an ally won't protect you.
