Playing as Yunara

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Hwei

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his damage spell

    Trade after he uses a damage spell: Devastating Fire (QQ), Severing Bolt (QW) and Molten Fissure (QE) share a 10 to 6 second cooldown.

  2. Don't stand still or alone

    Don't stand still or alone: Severing Bolt (QW) strikes after a delay and deals more damage to isolated or immobilized enemies.

  3. Jump on him if you can

    If you can engage, jump on him right after one of his CC spells: Hwei has no dash or leap, and Subject: Torment (E) has a 12 to 10 second cooldown.

  4. Move away from the ally hit by his R

    If an ally is hit by Spiraling Despair (R), move away from them: the vision expands around its target, slows and damages nearby enemies, then explodes.
