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 Seraphine
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Dodge her Beat Drop
Dodge Beat Drop (E), especially if you're already slowed: it roots a slowed target and stuns an immobilized one.
- Back off before her third spell
Count her basic spells and back off before the third: Stage Presence (passive) casts it twice, whether it damages, slows or shields.
- Spread out from your allies
Spread out from your allies against Encore (R): each champion hit extends its range, and a charmed ally near you lets it reach you.
- Target her: she has no dash
If you can engage, target Seraphine: her kit has no dash to escape.
