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 Galio

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his E

    Take a trade after Justice Punch (E): it's his only dash, on an 11 to 7 second cooldown.

  2. Lean on physical damage

    If you deal physical damage, lean on it in trades: the passive shield of Shield of Durand (W) only absorbs magic damage.

  3. Leave his taunt area

    Leave the area while he charges Shield of Durand (W): the longer he charges, the longer and wider the taunt.

  4. Check where he is before a dive

    Before diving one of his allies, check where Galio is: Hero's Entrance (R) flies him in from long range to an allied champion, and his landing is a knock-up.
