Playing as Viego

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. An auto after each spell

    Weave in an auto after each spell: thanks to Blade of the Ruined King (Q), your first attack on an enemy damaged by an ability strikes twice and heals you.

  2. Fully charge Spectral Maw

    Charge Spectral Maw (W) when you have time: the longer the charge, the longer the first enemy hit stays stunned, but you're slowed in the meantime.

  3. Strike from the Mist

    Cast Harrowed Path (E) on a wall near your target: inside the Mist, you're camouflaged and gain move speed and attack speed.

  4. Hit the wraith to possess the champion

    After a kill, hit the wraith to trigger Sovereign's Domination (passive): you restore health and take their basic spells and items, but not their ult.

  5. Finish with Heartbreaker

    Cast Heartbreaker (R) to finish: you leave the possessed body and strike the champion with the lowest health percentage, with damage based on their missing health.

Playing against Amumu

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Bandage Toss (Q) stops on the first enemy hit, and it's his only spell to reach you.

  2. Step up after both bandages

    Step up when both charges of Bandage Toss (Q) are gone: he can't reach you again until a charge comes back.

  3. Spread out from your allies

    When he has Curse of the Sad Mummy (R), spread out from your allies in teamfights: the spell stuns every enemy around him.

  4. Ward the way into your lane

    Ward the path between his jungle and your lane: Bandage Toss (Q) brings him onto you from range, and he has two charges to catch you.
