How it works
General
- You support your Team providing Healing, Shielding and various Buffs.
- You rush Moonstone Renewer.
- You can peel from your carries with Exhaust.
How to play
General
- You need to adapt in the game to your team and to the enemy team.
- You can get Mark (Snowball) summoner instead of Exhaust if you want to play more aggressive and to go in.
- You will be squishy early on, and if you don't go some tanky items later. Be careful!
- Your team needs to engage? Get items like Shurelya's Battlesong or Trailblazer.
- Your team getting poked to death? Consider getting Redemption AND/OR Locket of the Iron Solari
- If you are just getting poked and cannot manage to stay alive - get Kaenic Rookern or Warmog's Armor (caution: needs enough HP!)
- You have tanks, bruisers and your team lack damage? As a last resort, you can buy few items to even help with that!
- Remember to counter an enemy team. For example, if they have lots of healing, get Executioner's Calling early.
Tips and Tricks
General
- Lee Sin combo #1: Use R, then Flash immediately into a direction they do not expect (i.e behind them). The destination of your kick is registered at the moment of animation finish, not the start. You can do cool trick and kick enemy into your team, or even spawning pool!
- Lee Sin combo #2: You hit somebody with Q, but they are too far away to follow up with second Q? Hit enemy champion or minions with Mark (Snowball), or Safeguard to your ally champ or minions, or even Flash!
- Lee Sin combo #3: Dueling with someone? Use R, then when enemy champ is in the air, hit Q for sure hit.
- Lee Sin combo #4: Scaring tactic. Hit somebody with Q? Pretend that you follow up, by casting second Q, but in the midair use Safeguard (W) to ally champ or minion. You can even bait some Summoner Spells or other cooldowns!
Riot
- Use Sonic Wave before Dragon's Rage so you can chase the target with Resonating Strike.
- Take advantage of Flurry by weaving in basic attacks between spell casts - this maximizes damage output and minimizes Energy loss.
- Self-casting Safeguard and using Iron Will are powerful tools for killing neutral monsters (in the jungle).
