How to play

General

  1. You start with Guardian's Horn. Your #1 rush should be item that counters enemy team most (MR or Armor item). Get Jak'Sho as #2 item. Then adapt.
  2. Guardian's Horn is a surprisingly good item for its price. You can keep it for very long time (or even have it as 6th item).
  3. You need to adapt your items to the game. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  4. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!
  5. Do not be shy and do not wait for 'special moment'. You have great engaging tools - E + empowered Q + R.
  6. You have pretty good 'engagement pattern' - use E, go in, go out, heal up with Warmog's Armor.
  7. Play around your empowered Q. Try hitting valuable targets/engaging/catching people. Even holding it, so enemy can see it has great value, because they won't be so prone to going in. Rinse and repeat.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. Enemy attacking your turret, and you are the only one alive? Just use Soul Unbound (E) and take portal (frost-gate) to get their attention and defend your turret.
  2. Yone ARAM combo #1: use Soul Unbound (E) get close to your enemies, then hit them with Mark (Snowball). When E ends, you can teleport bac to them.
  3. Yone ARAM combo #2: hit Mark (Snowball), use Soul Unbound (E), teleport to them to deal damage, then E to your original position. Good for poke.
  4. Always keep stacking your Mortal Steel (Q).
