Optional Summoner Spells

Heal

Heal

OK option. You can take it if you want to have another cooldown to press and more healing output.

Ignite

Ignite

Offensive option, improves your damage, gives you additional cooldown to use in fights, but reduces your healing output.

Ghost

Ghost

Improves mobility. You can chase, position and flee better. Reduces your healing output, but makes you more agile in fights.

How it works

  1. You support your team by providing healing, shielding and various buffs.
  2. You rush Moonstone Renewer.
  3. You can peel from your carries with Exhaust.

Playstyle

  1. 🛡️

    Play safe and focus on supporting your allies.

  2. 💖

    Heal, shield, and buff your teammates.

  3. 🔙

    Stay back to heal and support more. Position behind your frontline.

How to play

Starter items

  1. Start with Tear of the Goddess and Bandleglass Mirror. Rush Moonstone first, then get Diadem of Songs second. Then adapt.
  2. Keep stacking your Tear! The sooner you get it, the sooner you can start healing your team and providing additional sustain.

Adaptation

  1. Your team needs to engage or position? Get items like Shurelya's Battlesong or Trailblazer.
  2. Your team getting poked to death? Consider getting Redemption AND/OR Locket of the Iron Solari next.
  3. If you are just getting poked and cannot manage to stay alive - get Kaenic Rookern or Warmog's Armor (caution: needs enough HP!)
  4. You have tanks, bruisers and your team lack damage? As a last resort, you can buy few items to even help with that!

Countering

  1. Remember to counter an enemy team. For example, if they have lots of healing, get Oblivion Orb early.

Buffing your team

  1. If your team has a lot of AP scaling champs, you can get Staff of the Flowing Water.
  2. If your team has a lot of auto attackers AND/OR melee champs, get Ardent Censer.
  3. If your team has a lot of auto attacks, you can also get Bandlepipes to increase their attack speed.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

Surround Sound (W)

  1. To trigger heal you need to have shield present on you. You normally do this with empowered Surround Sound (W). However you can also watch for shields from your allies or try coordinating with them to heal everyone on cooldowm

Beat Drop (E)

  1. If you want to crank up your utility by 1000%, you can get Rylai's Crystal Scepter.
  2. Rylai's Crystal Scepter changes how your Beat Drop (E) works. It normally slows, but with Rylai's it roots instantly! This turns your un-empowered E into an unconditional AoE root. And empowered E into unconditional AoE stun.
  3. You can use Beat Drop (E) in combination with Flash to quickly change the direction and length of the ability and surprise enemies.

Encore (R)

  1. Encore (R) not only extends when going through enemy champions, it also extends through allies too. Use this to shoot it through your frontline to reach enemy backline.
  2. For an easy guaranteed Encore (R), set it up with your empowered Beat Drop (E) root first - or an AoE stun if you have Rylai's Crystal Scepter - then fire Encore (R) while enemies are immobilized.
  3. Because R has a cast time and travel speed, landing it on moving enemies can be difficult. Always look to set up CC (or coordinate with your team) beforehand for a reliable combo.
  4. Alternatively, remember that Encore (R) also slows, you can follow up with a root from Beat Drop (E).
