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
  Malheur et Désespoir

  Vex est régulièrement renforcée, ce qui permet à sa prochaine compétence de base d'effrayer les ennemis et d'interrompre les ruées. Chaque fois qu'un ennemi proche fait une ruée, Vex applique une marque qui, si elle est consommée, inflige des dégâts supplémentaires et réduit le délai de récupération du renforcement.

  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
  Mistral perdant

  Vex lance un projectile qui inflige des dégâts et qui accélère pendant son vol.

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

• W
  Lâchez-moi !

  Vex gagne un bouclier et blesse les ennemis proches.

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

• E
  Ténèbres imminentes

  Vex invoque une zone qui blesse et ralentit les ennemis en plus d'appliquer Désespoir sur eux.

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

• R
  Déferlement d'Ombre

  Vex tire un projectile qui marque un champion ennemi. Elle peut réactiver cette compétence pour se ruer sur cet ennemi et lui infliger des dégâts.

  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.
