Playing as Zaahen

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. The Darkin Glaive, then recast

    Cast The Darkin Glaive (Q) for an auto that strikes twice and heals you, then recast the spell: your next auto knocks your target into the air.

  2. Pull them in with your stab

    Cast Dreaded Return (W) at a target out of your range: the stab damages them, then pulls them toward you for a second hit.

  3. Hit with the edge of your slice

    Place Aureate Rush (E) so your target is at the edge of the slice: at the tip, they take bonus damage based on their max health.

  4. Build up your Determination

    Hit champions with your autos and spells: each Determination stack from Cultivation of War (passive) gives you attack damage, and at max stacks, you can revive.

  5. Dive in with your ult

    Cast Grim Deliverance (R) in the middle of a fight: you take less damage as you rise, then your dive heals you based on the damage dealt to champions.

Playing against Renekton

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade when he's under 50 Fury

    Take a trade when his Fury is under 50: above that, Ruthless Predator (W) destroys your shields and stuns you twice as long.

  2. Trade after his dashes

    Take a trade once he has used both Slice and Dice (E) dashes: it's his only way to reach you or get out, on a 16 to 10 second cooldown.

  3. Back off when he casts Dominus

    Once he hits level 6, back off when he casts Dominus (R): he gains max health, builds Fury every second, and damages enemies around him.

  4. Drag the game out

    If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Renekton looks to get ahead in lane, before everyone has their items.
