How to play

General

  1. You build Lethality and wait for a moment to strike enemy squishes.
  2. Snowball / Mark is a crucial cooldown for playing this build. Do not waste it or even wait to hit the enemy at point-blank range to ensure hit (so you follow them, if they Flash).
  3. If an enemy team is full of tanks or bruisers, rush Serylda's Grudge or even Lord Dominik's Regards early (sometimes even #2). Black Cleaver is also an alternative. The key is to adapt to the enemy team.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. You can use Demacian Standard (E) for brush control.
  2. Remember that Dragon Strike (Q) reduces target's armor!
  3. Switch targets often in fights to fully use your Martial Cadence (Passive) for more damage!
  4. Combo #1: Q + E + Flash. Just Q + E and during the last frames of animation, you can Flash into enemy knocking them up.
  5. Combo #2: If you have enough Ability Haste, you can put E, wait and Q to it and cast second E hitting your target. This is especially cool with AP builds. So you can cast E while sliding to existing E.

Riot

  1. You can use the Dragon Strike / Demacian Standard combo to get out of your own Cataclysm arenas.
  2. Split your basic attacks on different champions at the beginning of fights to maximize damage.
  3. Use Demacian Standard as a scouting tool when worried about incoming enemies.
