Expert Tips
- Vault (E) is your combo initiator. E on an enemy to knock them back, land the blind (W), then immediately AA.
- Behind Enemy Lines (R) gives ultimate mobility. Rotate to any lane or side objective quickly and surprise enemies.
- Blinding Assault (Q) blinds — always apply it before extended trades against auto-attackers.
