How it works

General
  1. You play as Gwen Bruiser.
  2. Your build is survivability oriented. With some damage and tons of HP and defense.
  3. You auto attack a lot.

How to play

General
  1. As Gwen playing Bruiser build - you need ot adapt to an enemy team and to the game! Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. Are they heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  2. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!
Gwen Bruiser specific
  1. Your Snip Snip! (Q) will be doing little damage.
  2. You need to use Hallowed Mist (W) very strategically, so be careful and do not waste it!

Tips and Tricks

General
  1. W is great tool for tanking. Be smart about it and do not use it right away.
Riot
  1. Always be Attacking - In addition to dealing bonus damage, Gwen's Attacks empower or reset many of her Abilities.
  2. Gwen can still damage enemies outside her Hallowed Mists, especially with her Ultimate's range.
  3. Some of Gwen's Abilities can apply her passive to multiple enemies, so aim them at groups to get maximum damage and healing.
