What makes Kha'Zix dangerous
Kha'Zix deals massive bonus damage to isolated targets (no allies nearby), leaps in and out with his E, and his ultimate grants repeated stealth to reposition and reset. He evolves his abilities to specialize, and he deletes a lone carry in one combo while staying nearly untouchable.
How to play against Kha'Zix
- 1Stay grouped — his entire kit rewards catching you isolated. Standing next to an ally removes his bonus damage and, evolved, his stealth trigger.
- 2Buy a Control Ward and sweeper — his ultimate stealth is how he engages and escapes. Revealing him strips his safety.
- 3Peel with hard CC. Once he leaps in, a stun or root before he can E out catches the slippery assassin.
- 4Track his early jungle — like most assassins he wants to snowball. Warding and grouping through the mid-game denies his pick pattern.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Bonus damage requires you to be isolated — grouping shuts it off.
- ✓Squishy — hard CC and burst punish him after he leaps in.
- ✓Reveal/sweepers counter his stealth ultimate.
- ✓Weaker into teamfight-oriented, peel-heavy comps.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Kha'Zix's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
보이지 않는 위협동료로부터 고립된 근처 적에게 표식이 남습니다. 고립된 대상에게는 카직스의 스킬이 추가 효과를 발휘합니다.카직스는 적의 시야에 노출되지 않을 때 보이지 않는 위협 효과를 받아, 다음 기본 공격으로 적 챔피언에게 추가 마법 피해를 입히고 몇 초간 둔화를 적용합니다.
Strong: bonus damage and, evolved, stealth against isolated targets. Weak: stand next to an ally and both the bonus damage and stealth trigger vanish.
Q
공포 감지대상에게 물리 피해를 줍니다. 고립된 대상에게는 피해량이 늘어납니다. 거대 갈고리 진화를 고립된 대상에게 사용 시, 재사용 대기시간이 일부 감소합니다. 또한, 카직스의 기본 공격과 공포 감지 범위도 증가합니다.
W
공허의 가시카직스가 폭발하는 가시를 발사하여 적중한 적에게 물리 피해를 가합니다. 폭발 범위 안에 있으면 카직스의 체력이 회복됩니다. 가시 어깨 진화를 선택하면, 공허의 가시 세 개가 원뿔 형태로 발사되며 적중한 적에게 둔화를 걸고 2초 동안 적 챔피언을 드러냅니다. 고립된 대상에게는 둔화 효과가 증가합니다.
E
도약카직스가 도약하여, 착지할 때 물리 피해를 가합니다. 날개 진화를 선택하면 도약 범위가 200 증가하며, 킬이나 어시스트를 기록하면 도약의 재사용 대기시간이 초기화됩니다.
Strong: leaps in and, evolved, back out — his engage and escape. Weak: CC him after he leaps in, before he can E out, to catch the assassin.
R
공허의 습격카직스의 스킬을 하나 진화시켜 고유한 추가 효과를 부여합니다. 공허의 습격을 활성화하면 카직스가 은신 상태가 되고 보이지 않는 위협이 발동되어, 이동 속도가 증가합니다. 활성 보호색 진화를 선택하면, 은신의 지속시간이 증가하며 공허의 습격을 추가로 사용할 수 있습니다.
Strong: repeated stealth to reposition and reset. Weak: Control Wards and sweepers reveal him and strip his safety.
Itemization
Kha'Zix is burst AD. Armor (Zhonya's on AP carries, Plated Steelcaps, Randuin's) and grouping beat him; a Control Ward denies his stealth. Never walk alone in the mid-game and he loses his whole gameplan.
