What makes Vex dangerous
Vex's passive periodically empowers her spells to FEAR — and every enemy DASH marks them for punishment: her personal doom for mobile champions. She shields, pokes in cones, and her ultimate is a long-range missile she can follow into an execute, resetting on takedowns.
How to play against Vex
- 1Don't dash INTO her when the Doom passive is up — you feed the fear engine.
- 2Immobile champions ironically play best against her.
- 3Her ult resets on takedown — don't let her cleanup snowball fights.
- 4Punish her outside passive windows: she's a mediocre mage between them.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Short range for a control mage.
- ✓Passive windows are visible — trade between them.
- ✓Immobile herself: hard engage (walk, don't dash) sticks.
- ✓The ult telegraphs its follow-up — peel the landing.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Vex's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
Buồn BựcCứ sau một khoảng thời gian nhất định, Vex sẽ trở nên Bực Bội, khiến cho Kỹ Năng cơ bản tiếp theo hoảng sợ kẻ địch và gián đoạn lướt của chúng. Mỗi khi có kẻ địch lướt đi ở gần, Vex đánh dấu lên chúng và có thể kích nổ nó để gây thêm sát thương, đồng thời, giảm thời gian hồi của trạng thái Bực Bội.
Strong: periodic Doom empowers a spell with FEAR; enemy dashes get marked for punishment. Weak: the windows are visible on her — trade between them.
Q
Sóng U SầuPhóng ra một đường đạn gây sát thương, tăng tốc cực mạnh trên đường bay.
Strong: a long accelerating poke bolt. Weak: it shrinks mid-flight — long-range dodges are easy.
W
Chỗ Này Của Ta!Nhận một lá chắn và gây sát thương lên các kẻ địch gần kề.
Strong: an instant AoE shield-burst that punishes divers on top of her. Weak: short radius — poke her from outside it.
E
Nỗi Buồn Lan TỏaTriệu hồi một vùng gây sát thương và làm chậm, đồng thời áp dụng hiệu ứng Buồn Bã lên chúng.
Strong: a slowing shadow that marks for her Q/passive chains. Weak: slow arc — the setup telegraphs the whole combo.
R
Bóng Đen Đoạt MệnhBắn ra đường đạn đánh dấu tướng địch. Tái kích hoạt để lướt tới và gây sát thương.
Strong: a long missile she follows into burst — RESETS on takedowns. Weak: peel the arrival and the reset chain never starts.
Itemization
Walk up, don't dash in. Fight between doom windows and peel her ult landings — she starves without resets.
