Playstyle

The longest base range lets her poke with Q and autos to pressure the lane. Set W (traps) and E (net) to push into them — a sprung trap into an empowered auto is her burst combo. Snowball lane control, and late game it's all about positioning.

Champion Tips

Riot official

Playing as

  • Make use of her Yordle Snap Traps by placing them pre-emptively to ensure that you'll have one off of cooldown during combat.
  • Avoid using Ace in the Hole in large team melees as it might be blocked by the wrong target.
  • Fire 90 Caliber Net away from the opponent to close the gap or hop over walls.

Playing against

  • Keep behind allied minions if Caitlyn is harassing you with Piltover Peacemaker (it deals less damage with each subsequent target).
  • You can intercept Ace in the Hole's missile from hitting an ally if you stand in its path.

One of the reasons Piltover is known as the City of Progress is because it has an extraordinarily low crime rate. This hasn't always been the case; brigands and thieves of all sorts used to find the city-state an ideal mark for plunder, primarily due ...
