What makes Rek'Sai dangerous
Rek'Sai burrows to move fast and sense enemies through fog, erupts with a knock-up, tunnels across walls, and her ultimate executes a marked target for missing-health damage. Her early game is one of the strongest — expect level 2-3 ganks and constant skirmishes.
How to play against Rek'Sai
- 1Respect her early: ward deep and don't skirmish 1v1 in her jungle pre-6.
- 2Destroy her tunnels — it removes her map mobility and escape routes.
- 3Her ult needs a mark (recent damage): break line long enough and it can't execute you.
- 4She falls off — drag the game long and group.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Falls off hard in the late game.
- ✓Unburrowed she's a short-range melee with modest damage.
- ✓Tunnels are destroyable and her pathing is readable.
- ✓Knock-up is only on unburrow — bait it and trade after.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Rek'Sai's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
Furia degli Xer'SaiRek'Sai genera Furia attaccando e colpendo con le abilità base. La Furia viene consumata mentre è Sottoterra per recuperare salute.
Strong: burrowed she senses enemies through fog and moves fast. Weak: burrowed she can't auto-attack and has less vision range up close.
Q
Ira della regina / Colpo traccianteI prossimi 3 attacchi base di Rek'Sai infliggono danni fisici bonus ai nemici vicini.Quando è Sottoterra, Rek'Sai lancia una raffica di terra carica di energia del Vuoto, che danneggia e rivela i nemici colpiti.
Strong: burrowed Q is ranged poke; unburrowed — bonus damage on autos. Weak: the burrowed bolt is a thin dodgeable line.
W
Immersione / EmersioneRek'Sai scava e va sottoterra, ottenendo nuove abilità e un aumento della velocità di movimento. Il suo raggio visivo si riduce e non può usare gli attacchi base.Quando è Sottoterra, Rek'Sai può lanciare Emersione per emergere, lanciando in aria e danneggiando i nemici circostanti.
Strong: unburrowing knocks up everyone around — her gank opener. Weak: it's her ONLY hard CC — bait the unburrow and trade right after.
E
Morso furioso / GalleriaRek'Sai morde il suo bersaglio, infliggendo danni fisici o danni fisici bonus se ha la Furia al massimo.Quando è sottoterra, Rek'Sai crea una galleria duratura e riutilizzabile. I nemici possono distruggerla stando sopra uno dei due ingressi.
Strong: tunnels cross walls and stay as escape routes; the bite does true damage at full fury. Weak: tunnels are destroyable — clear them and she loses her mobility net.
R
Velocità del VuotoRek'Sai applica passivamente un marchio ai bersagli quando li danneggia. Può attivare questa abilità per diventare temporaneamente non bersagliabile e balzare verso un bersaglio marchiato, infliggendo ingenti danni in base alla salute massima del bersaglio.
Strong: an untargetable execute dive on a marked target. Weak: needs a recent-damage mark — break contact briefly and the execute is unavailable.
Itemization
Survive her early storm: deep vision, no coin-flip skirmishes, destroy tunnels. She has no late game — scale and group.
