How to beat Hecarim

Common role: Jungle

A fast jungle diver who charges in, knocks you back, and fears your whole team.

What makes Hecarim dangerous

Hecarim builds movement speed to run you down, his E rampage knocks you back on impact, and his ultimate charges through the team, fearing everyone hit and making them flee. He heals off his Q and dives the backline with terrifying speed, snowballing off ganks.

How to play against Hecarim

• 1Ward and watch for his speed-up — a fast Hecarim engage is his whole gank. Slows and roots cut his momentum.
• 2Respect his ult fear — it charges through your team and makes them flee. Spread out and don't line up in front of it.
• 3Grievous Wounds cuts his Q healing, and hard CC stops his momentum-based dives.
• 4His E knockback needs a run-up — the closer you are, the weaker it is. Deny his speed and he does little.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Momentum-reliant — slows and roots gut him.
• ✓Healing cut by Grievous Wounds.
• ✓Ult fear is a dodgeable line.
• ✓Squishy-ish for a diver; hard CC punishes him.

Abilities & how to counter them

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

• P
  Savaş Yolu

  Hecarim, ilave hareket hızının belli bir yüzdesine eşdeğer saldırı gücü kazanır.

  Strong: movement speed converts into bonus damage — a fast engage that runs you down. Weak: slows and roots gut his momentum and his whole gank.

• Q
  Galeyan

  Hecarim yakındaki rakipleri biçerek onlara fiziksel hasar verir. Hecarim bu saldırıyla en az bir rakibe hasar verirse, sonraki Galeyan kullanımlarının hasarını arttırır ve bekleme süresini kısaltır.

• W
  Dehşetin Ruhu

  Hecarim zırh ve büyü direnci kazanır. Hecarim yakınındaki rakiplere büyü hasarı verir ve rakiplerinin aldığı hasarın yüzdelik bir bölümüne eşdeğer miktarda can kazanır.

• E
  Yıkıcı Saldırı

  Hecarim kısa süreliğine hareket hızı artışı elde eder ve birimlerin içinden geçebilir. İlk saldırısı hedefi geri savurur ve Hecarim, yeteneği etkinleştirdiğinden beri kat ettiği mesafeye bağlı olarak fazladan fiziksel hasar verir.

• R
  Gölgelerin Hücumu

  Hecarim hayalet süvariler çağırarak ileri hücum eder ve düz bir hat boyunca büyü hasarı verir. Hücumu bittiğinde, yakındaki rakiplerin dehşet içinde kaçmalarına sebep olan bir şok dalgası yaratır.

  Strong: charges through your team, fearing everyone hit and scattering them. Weak: a dodgeable line — spread out and don't line up in front of it.
