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 Sejuani

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her charge

    Dodge Arctic Assault (Q) to the side: enemies it passes through take a knock-up, and the charge stops on the first champion hit.

  2. Leave before her second swing

    Get out of range before the second swing of Winter's Wrath (W): it deals most of the damage and slows.

  3. Watch her melee allies too

    With Frost stacks on you, watch out for her melee allies too: their autos apply them, and at 4, Permafrost (E) stuns you.

  4. Don't be first in her bola's path

    Don't be the first champion in the path of Glacial Prison (R): that champion is stunned, longer if the bola comes from far away.
