Playing as Yuumi

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Steer your Prowling Projectile

    While attached to an ally, steer Prowling Projectile (Q) with your mouse before it accelerates: once accelerated, it deals more damage and slows harder.

  2. Hit a champion to heal

    Hit a champion regularly, even with just a Prowling Projectile (Q): Feline Friendship (passive) then heals you, and then the next ally you attach to.

  3. Make an ally your Best Friend

    Stay attached to the same ally most of the time: Feline Friendship (passive) strengthens your bond with them, and your Best Friend empowers your spells while you're on them.

  4. Stay on your carry

    Attach to your carry with You and Me! (W): only towers can target you then, and Zoomies (E) gives them a shield, attack speed and mana.

  5. Steer your ult onto their group

    Cast Final Chapter (R) while attached to steer its waves: each wave that hits slows enemies more and heals your allies.

Playing against Blitzcrank

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Rocket Grab (Q) catches the first enemy hit, so one minion is enough to block it.

  2. Step up after a missed grab

    Step up when Rocket Grab (Q) misses you: it has a 20 to 16 second cooldown, and without it he has to walk up to you with Overdrive (W).

  3. Respect his level 2

    Once he hits level 2, don't push far from your tower without vision of his brushes: Rocket Grab (Q) into Power Fist (E) knocks you into the air among his allies.

  4. Take the grab for your carry

    If you're tanky, stand in front of your carry: Rocket Grab (Q) catches the first enemy hit, and it's better if that's you.

  5. Don't count on a shield

    Near him, don't count on a shield: Static Field (R) destroys nearby enemies' shields and silences them.
