How to beat Vex

Common role: Mid

A gloomy yordle who fears every dasher and resets through kills.

What makes Vex dangerous

Vex's passive periodically empowers her spells to FEAR — and every enemy DASH marks them for punishment: her personal doom for mobile champions. She shields, pokes in cones, and her ultimate is a long-range missile she can follow into an execute, resetting on takedowns.

How to play against Vex

• 1Don't dash INTO her when the Doom passive is up — you feed the fear engine.
• 2Immobile champions ironically play best against her.
• 3Her ult resets on takedown — don't let her cleanup snowball fights.
• 4Punish her outside passive windows: she's a mediocre mage between them.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Short range for a control mage.
• ✓Passive windows are visible — trade between them.
• ✓Immobile herself: hard engage (walk, don't dash) sticks.
• ✓The ult telegraphs its follow-up — peel the landing.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Vex's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Verhängnis und Verderben

  Vex wird regelmäßig verstärkt. Dadurch versetzt ihre nächste Grundfähigkeit Gegner in Furcht und unterbricht deren Sprünge. Wenn ein Gegner in der Nähe einen Sprung einsetzt, wird er von Vex markiert. Der Verbrauch dieser Markierung verursacht zusätzlichen Schaden und verringert die Abklingzeit ihres verstärkten Zustands.

  Strong: periodic Doom empowers a spell with FEAR; enemy dashes get marked for punishment. Weak: the windows are visible on her — trade between them.

• Q
  Mistralschuss

  Feuert ein schadensverursachendes Geschoss ab, das während des Flugs beschleunigt.

  Strong: a long accelerating poke bolt. Weak: it shrinks mid-flight — long-range dodges are easy.

• W
  Abstand halten

  Du erhältst einen Schild und fügst nahen Gegnern Schaden zu.

  Strong: an instant AoE shield-burst that punishes divers on top of her. Weak: short radius — poke her from outside it.

• E
  Bedrohliche Finsternis

  Beschwört einen Bereich, der Schaden verursacht und verlangsamt sowie Gegner mit „Verderben“ belegt.

  Strong: a slowing shadow that marks for her Q/passive chains. Weak: slow arc — the setup telegraphs the whole combo.

• R
  Schattenfall

  Feuert ein Geschoss ab, das einen gegnerischen Champion markiert. Bei Reaktivierung springt Vex zu ihm und fügt ihm Schaden zu.

  Strong: a long missile she follows into burst — RESETS on takedowns. Weak: peel the arrival and the reset chain never starts.

Itemization

Walk up, don't dash in. Fight between doom windows and peel her ult landings — she starves without resets.
