Playing as Yunara
Tips to maximize your impact
- Slow with Arc of Judgment
Hit with Arc of Judgment (W) before a trade: the prayer bead slows your target, then damages them every second, and it reaches 1150, well beyond your autos.
- Judge your power by your crit items
Measure your power by your crit items: with Vow of the First Lands (passive), each of your critical strikes deals bonus magic damage.
- Use Cultivation of Spirit when charged
Once your autos have charged Cultivation of Spirit (Q), activate it for a trade or a teamfight: you gain attack speed, and your autos spread to nearby enemies.
- Transcend for the teamfight
Cast Transcend One's Self (R) as the teamfight starts: your basic spells are upgraded, Arc of Ruin (W) fires a laser, and Untouchable Shadow (E) gives you a dash.
Playing against Ashe
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Short trades
Take short trades: each auto slows you with Frost Shot (passive), and her autos deal more damage to slowed targets.
- Back off during her Focus
Back off when she activates Ranger's Focus (Q): for a few seconds, her attack speed rises and each auto becomes a flurry of arrows.
- Punish her lack of mobility
If you can engage, go for her when her support drifts away: her kit has no dash, only slows.
- Dodge her long-range arrow
Prioritize dodging Enchanted Crystal Arrow (R) fired from far away: the farther the arrow has traveled, the longer the stun.
