What makes Twitch dangerous
Twitch stealths (Q) to reposition and flank, stacks poison that spreads and explodes (W/E), and his ultimate turns his autos into piercing bolts that hit every enemy in a line. From stealth in a teamfight, he can delete your entire backline in seconds.
How to play against Twitch
- 1Buy control wards and sweep — vision denies his stealth flanks entirely.
- 2Watch for his stealth timer and stay grouped so he can't catch you alone.
- 3Punish his weak early game; before items he is a fragile lane.
- 4His E poison detonation ramps with stacks — don't let him free-farm autos on you.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Very squishy — dies instantly to any lock-down.
- ✓Stealth is countered hard by control wards and sweepers.
- ✓Weak early game before his items come online.
- ✓Immobile in his ult stance — CC him and he's done.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Twitch's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
Venin mortelLes attaques de base de Twitch contaminent sa cible %i:OnHit% à l'impact, lui infligeant des dégâts bruts chaque seconde.
Strong: his autos stack poison that ticks for heavy damage over time. Weak: don't let him free-auto you in lane; the stacks are the threat.
Q
EmbuscadeTwitch se camoufle pendant un court instant et sa vitesse de déplacement est augmentée. Quand il quitte son camouflage, sa vitesse d'attaque est augmentée pendant un court instant.Quand un champion ennemi affecté par Venin mortel meurt, le délai de récupération d'Embuscade prend fin.
Strong: goes stealth to reposition and flank your backline. Weak: control wards and sweepers reveal him — vision kills his ambush.
W
Dose de veninTwitch projette une dose de venin qui explose sur une zone, ralentissant les cibles et leur infligeant Venin mortel.
Strong: an AoE poison that slows and adds stacks for his detonation. Weak: a lobbed skillshot — step out of the puddle to avoid it.
E
ContaminationTwitch contamine encore plus les ennemis empoisonnés avec de terribles maladies.
Strong: detonates all poison stacks for burst and reveals stealthed enemies. Weak: on cooldown he loses his execute — trade in that window.
R
PaniqueTwitch libère toute la puissance de son arbalète, tirant des carreaux à longue portée qui transpercent tous les ennemis touchés.
Strong: turns his autos into piercing bolts that hit everyone in a line. Weak: he's immobile while firing — CC or focus him and he folds.
Itemization
Control wards and sweepers are the hard counter to his stealth. Hard engage and lock-down delete him; group so he can't flank a lone carry.
