How to beat Vel'Koz

Common role: Mid / Support

A void artillery eye whose true-damage beam disintegrates tanks.

What makes Vel'Koz dangerous

Vel'Koz pokes from extreme range with a splitting Q, knocks up with delayed geysers, and his passive converts stacked hits into TRUE damage — his ultimate beam melts anything it tracks, tanks included. He wins every siege and poke war.

How to play against Vel'Koz

• 1His ult is a channel — any CC ends the beam instantly.
• 2The Q splits at 90° — watch the angle, not just the line.
• 3Flank him: all his damage faces forward, he's helpless up close.
• 4Armor doesn't save you at 3 passive stacks — just don't eat full combos.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Zero mobility — the definition of dive food.
• ✓The ult roots him in place — free CC window.
• ✓Needs full combos to threaten — spread the hits.
• ✓Squishy artillery: one flank ends him.

Abilities & how to counter them

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

• P
  有機分解

  スキルが命中するたびに対象の「有機分解」が進行していき、3スタックすると確定ダメージを与える。

  Strong: three ability hits convert to TRUE damage research. Weak: needs the full combo — spread the hits across the fight.

• Q
  電離炸裂弾

  再発動させるか敵に命中するとT字に分裂するプラズマ弾を発射する。この弾は命中した敵にスロウ効果とダメージを与える。

  Strong: a right-angle splitting poke with huge reach. Weak: the split angle is fixed — watch the fork, not just the line.

• W
  ヴォイドの裂谷

  ヴォイドへ通じる裂け目を大地に呼び出し、触れた敵にダメージを与える。裂け目は少ししてから爆発し、再度ダメージを与える。

  Strong: a double-wave line nuke for waveclear and stacks. Weak: narrow and repetitive — strafe the second wave.

• E
  地殻砕裂

  指定したエリアを爆発させ、範囲内の敵にダメージを与えてノックアップさせる。至近距離にいる敵は、わずかにふき飛ばされる。

  Strong: a delayed AoE knock-up that starts his full combo. Weak: small circle with a wind-up — step out on the flash.

• R
  生体破壊光線

  指定方向へ2.5秒間、強力なビームを発射し、触れた敵に魔法ダメージを与える。このスキルによって「有機分解」されて解析が完了したチャンピオンは確定ダメージを代わりに受ける。

  Strong: a tracking true-damage beam that melts even tanks. Weak: a CHANNEL that roots him — any CC ends it; flank behind the beam.
