How to beat Samira

Common role: ADC

An all-in marksman who dashes through fights and unleashes a lifesteal blade storm.

What makes Samira dangerous

Samira builds a style meter with varied attacks, dashes through enemies (E) resetting on takedowns, blocks projectiles with her W, and her ultimate is a spinning AoE blade storm that shreds a grouped team while healing her. She thrives in chaotic all-ins and snowballs out of control if she gets going.

How to play against Samira

• 1Her W blocks projectiles briefly — don't throw key skillshots into it. Bait it, then commit.
• 2Her ultimate needs full style stacks and enemies in range — hard CC her before she can spin, and don't clump for the AoE.
• 3Punish her early — Samira is a weak, all-in-reliant laner before items. Poke her out and deny the snowball.
• 4She dives melee-range on her carry pattern. Hard CC and Grievous Wounds (against her ult lifesteal) shut her down.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Weak, all-in-reliant early game.
• ✓W only blocks projectiles briefly.
• ✓Ult needs stacks and grouped enemies — CC and spread deny it.
• ✓Melee-range and squishy; hard CC punishes her.

Abilities & how to counter them

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

• P
  悍勇本色

  莎弥拉可通过用不同的技能或攻击命中敌人来构建一次连招。莎弥拉在近战距离的攻击会造成额外的魔法伤害。莎弥拉在对被定身的敌人进行攻击时，将冲刺到她的最大攻击距离处。如果该敌人已被击飞，她还会使其短暂保持击飞状态。

• Q
  交火

  莎弥拉进行一次射击或斩击，造成伤害。如果在【狂飙】期间施放，那么会在完成时打击沿途的所有敌人。

• W
  锋旋

  莎弥拉斩击她的周围，对敌人造成伤害并摧毁敌人的飞行道具。

• E
  狂飙

  莎弥拉的武器倾泻出大量的子弹，狂野地射击她周围的所有敌人。

  Strong: a spinning AoE blade storm that shreds a grouped team while healing her. Weak: hard CC before she spins and don't clump; Grievous Wounds cuts the lifesteal.
