Vex's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Doom 'n Gloom (P)

Vex periodically becomes empowered, causing her next basic Ability to fear enemies and interrupt dashes. Whenever a nearby enemy dashes, Vex applies a mark that can be consumed for bonus damage that also reduces the cooldown of her empowered state.

Playing against Vex

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Vex is weak against champions WITHOUT dashes: her anti-dash passive doesn't proc if you don't dash.

2

Her R is a skillshot: dodge the missile and she can't dash to you.

3

Punish her when her fear passive is on cooldown (the indicator below her is grayed out when unavailable).

4

Long-range champions without mobility (Xerath, Vel'Koz) counter her well.
