How to beat Twitch

Common role: ADC

A stealth hypercarry who flanks from the fog and melts whole teams.

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
  スゴイ毒ダ！

  通常攻撃で対象を毒%i:OnHit%通常攻撃時効果に侵し、毎秒確定ダメージを与える。

  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
  オイラだヨ！

  数秒間カモフラージュ状態になり、その間移動速度が増加する。カモフラージュの解除時に短時間攻撃速度が増加する。「スゴイ毒ダ！」でチャンピオンを倒すと、「オイラだヨ！」のクールダウンがリセットされる。

  Strong: goes stealth to reposition and flank your backline. Weak: control wards and sweepers reveal him — vision kills his ambush.

• W
  コイツを食らエ！

  毒物が入った容器を投げて破裂させ、効果範囲内の敵ユニットをスロウ状態にし、猛毒効果をかける。

  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
  ボーン！

  猛毒状態にした敵を病原菌に侵し、さらにダメージを与える。

  Strong: detonates all poison stacks for burst and reveals stealthed enemies. Weak: on cooldown he loses his execute — trade in that window.

• R
  ヒャッハー！

  クロスボウの最大威力を引き出し、射程距離を大幅に拡大する。発射した矢は命中した敵ユニットを貫通してダメージを与える。

  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.
