Playing as Vi

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. A spell to trigger your shield

    Hit an enemy with a spell to activate Blast Shield (passive): it charges over time, and every third hit on a target lowers its cooldown.

  2. Three hits on the same target

    Hit the same target three times: Denting Blows (W) adds damage based on their max health, removes some of their armor and gives you attack speed.

  3. Hit through minions

    Cast Relentless Force (E) on a minion in front of your opponent: the shockwave also hits enemies behind the target, with full damage.

  4. Charge Vault Breaker out of sight

    Charge Vault Breaker (Q) out of sight before you show up: fully charged, it deals double damage, and it stops on the first champion hit to knock them back.

  5. Go get their carry

    Cast Cease and Desist (R) on their carry: you're unstoppable during the charge, and enemies in your way are stunned. Don't stray too far from your team.

Playing against Kha'Zix

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay near an ally

    Stay near an ally: alone, Unseen Threat (passive) marks you as isolated, and Taste Their Fear (Q) hits you much harder.

  2. Fight back if his leap misses

    If he leaps in without a kill, fight back: Leap (E) has a 20 to 12 second cooldown, which a takedown only resets once the spell is evolved.

  3. Ward his paths

    Ward his paths: out of sight, Unseen Threat (passive) empowers his next auto against a champion, which damages and slows.
