Playing as Zilean

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Double bomb to stun

    Place Time Bomb (Q), reset it with Rewind (W), then place the second one on the same target: the first explodes instantly and stuns enemies around it.

  2. Speed up an ally or slow an enemy

    Cast Time Warp (E) on the ally who needs to catch up or escape, or on the enemy to slow: the same spell does both.

  3. Place your ult just before they die

    Place Chronoshift (R) on your carry right before they die: too early and the enemy switches targets, and if they die with the rune, they revive after a stasis.

  4. Give your XP at the right time

    Give the Time In A Bottle (passive) experience to an ally who is close to leveling up: you receive as much as you give.

Playing against Amumu

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Bandage Toss (Q) stops on the first enemy hit, and it's his only spell to reach you.

  2. Step up after both bandages

    Step up when both charges of Bandage Toss (Q) are gone: he can't reach you again until a charge comes back.

  3. Spread out from your allies

    When he has Curse of the Sad Mummy (R), spread out from your allies in teamfights: the spell stuns every enemy around him.

  4. Ward the way into your lane

    Ward the path between his jungle and your lane: Bandage Toss (Q) brings him onto you from range, and he has two charges to catch you.
