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 Shaco

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back before you get too low

    Back before your health drops too low: below 30% health, Two-Shiv Poison (E) deals much more damage to you.

  2. Move away from his clone

    Move away from the Hallucinate (R) clone before it dies: it explodes and spawns three boxes that fear nearby enemies.

  3. Focus him when he engages

    If you can reach him, focus him when he engages with Deceive (Q): he no longer has it to escape, on a 13 to 11 second cooldown.

  4. Ward his camps and your entrances

    Ward near his camps and at the entrances to your lane: spot him before Deceive (Q), which makes him invisible for his gank.

  5. Move carefully in his jungle

    Move carefully in his jungle: Jack In The Box (W) goes invisible, fears the champion who comes near, then shoots nearby enemies for 5 seconds.
