Playing as Vel'Koz

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Three spells for the burst

    Hit the same target with three spells: at three stacks, Organic Deconstruction (passive) bursts and deals true damage to them.

  2. Poke and farm with your rift

    Stay back and poke with Void Rift (W): its two charges let you kill minions while stacking your passive on your opponent.

  3. Split your plasma to hit at an angle

    Recast Plasma Fission (Q) to split it: the two bolts fly off at 90 degrees, which lets you hit a target hiding behind their minions.

  4. Start your ray after a knock-up

    Cast Life Form Disintegration Ray (R) after the Tectonic Disruption (E) knock-up: your target can't escape, and the ray deals true damage to targets of Organic Deconstruction (passive).

Playing against Lulu

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her two bolts

    Dodge Glitterlance (Q): two bolts fly out, one from Lulu and one from Pix, and each one damages and heavily slows.

  2. Engage twice

    Engage in two steps: make her use Whimsy (W), then re-engage during its 18-second cooldown.

  3. Focus her if you can reach her

    If you can reach her, focus her in teamfights: Whimsy (W), Help, Pix! (E) and Wild Growth (R) are mostly there to protect her allies.

  4. Back off from her enlarged ally

    When Wild Growth (R) enlarges one of her allies near you, back off: anyone close to them is knocked into the air, then the aura slows them.
