Playing as Viego
Tips to maximize your impact
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 Sejuani
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
