How to play

General

  2. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!

Tips and Tricks

General
  1. If you are not playing 'going-in' build like Tank or Bruiser, save Ixtal's Impact (E) for escaping! You can play aggresive, then use it to run away to safety.
Riot
  1. Basic attacks apply Quaking. Stick to your target and re-apply it for maximum damage.
  2. Impale is extremely powerful when you use it to position an enemy so your allies can attack them.
