Lissandra's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Iceborn Subjugation (P)

When an enemy champion dies near Lissandra they become a Frozen Thrall. Frozen Thralls slow nearby enemies and then, after a delay, shatter from the intense cold, dealing magic damage to nearby targets.

Playing as Vex

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Save your empowered spell for a dash

    When Doom 'n Gloom (passive) is ready, save Personal Space (W) for the enemy who jumps on you: the shockwave fears them and interrupts their dash, and you gain a shield.

  2. Make every dash cost them

    When an enemy dashes near you, Doom 'n Gloom (passive) marks them: hit them with Mistral Bolt (Q) for bonus damage, and your empowerment comes back sooner.

  3. Ult in, then Personal Space

    After the Shadow Surge (R) dash, follow up with Personal Space (W): the shield protects you on arrival, and the shockwave fears if Doom 'n Gloom (passive) is ready.

  4. Chain your ults

    If the champion marked by Shadow Surge (R) dies shortly after being hit by it, its cooldown is reset for a moment: recast it right away at another target.

Playing against Lissandra

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Don't hug her

    Don't stand right next to her when Ring of Frost (W) is up: it roots every enemy near her, and it has a 10 to 8 second cooldown.

  2. Cut off her Glacial Path

    If you have CC, land it on her while the claw of Glacial Path (E) is traveling: immobilized, she can't blink to it, or drop on you with Ring of Frost (W).

  3. Fight back after her claw

    After her engage, fight back: Glacial Path (E) has a 24 to 12 second cooldown, and without it, she can't reposition in an instant.

  4. Save a way out of her R

    If you have a cleanse, save it for Frozen Tomb (R): on you, it stuns you, and the ice around you slows your allies.
